Chapter 181: The genius who ended up behind bars_3

Song Yuyan was speechless, and couldn’t help but tease, “I’m talking about you, Brother Zichen, you’re already an 18-year-old guy, and you finally get the chance to ask a great beauty like me a secret, can’t you be a bit more cheeky and ask about my measurements or something?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Zichen felt even more speechless than she did.

Sexual harassment, huh?

Turns out, men and women are the same, they all want to flirt when they see someone good-looking.

In one sentence, it’s the ugly ones who will never know how proactive women can be.

Lin Zichen had deeply realized this principle.

“Haha, Sister Yan is just teasing you. Don’t take it seriously, you pure-hearted little boy,”

Song Yuyan laughed with a “haha” after saying this.

Then, she reined in her laughter and said, “You might not believe it if I tell you, but I was actually an abandoned baby; I have no idea who my biological parents are.”

“But don’t get me wrong, I had a very happy childhood.”

“My adoptive parents not only loved me, they were also extremely wealthy, owning several martial arts schools in the Capital City.”

“Thanks to that, I never had to worry about food or clothing growing up. I spent every day in the martial arts schools practicing, and as I kept practicing, I became the second-highest scorer in the Capital City’s college entrance exams.”

“Unfortunately, my adoptive parents had many chronic illnesses due to being combative in their youth, and they both fell ill and passed away during my sophomore year in high school, never seeing me become the second-highest scorer.”

“Speaking of which, the reason I followed the Pureblood Human Path is all because of the influence of my adoptive parents.”

“Both of them were members of Tianren Pavilion, long-time friends of the dean, always believing that the Pureblood Human Path is the future of humanity, So following the Pureblood Human Path was my way of fulfilling their wish.”

While saying this, she mocked herself, “It’s just a pity that I’m too useless. I’ve been walking the Pureblood Human Path for ten years and haven’t made a splash, getting laughed at for being no different from anyone else.”

Lin Zichen didn’t say anything, just listened intently, nodding now and then in response.

He wasn’t interested in Song Yuyan’s life story.

It was just a casual question.

However, since she was talking so earnestly, he still needed to listen politely.

“By the way, Zichen, since you’re such a prodigy, what do your parents do?”

After sharing her own backstory, Song Yuyan asked curiously.

Lin Zichen smiled and used the same sentence structure she had just used, “You might not believe it, but both my parents are ordinary people, they write novels online.”

“Your parents are ordinary people?”

Song Yuyan said in disbelief.

How could two ordinary people produce such a genius son?

A genetic mutation?

…

The next day.

Yuan Dongzhi called a meeting for all the new students in the morning.

Like the fire drills of the past life, she spoke about the Heretical Sect during the meeting.

She intended for the new students to recognize the Heretical Sect and understand its dangers.

To teach them how to identify heretics and avoid being persecuted by them.

She said, if you’re coerced by heretics, you can come to her for help at any time; just don’t collude with them.

Otherwise, once you’ve soiled your hands, she wouldn’t treat the coerced student as a student anymore.

But rather as a heretic, a betrayer of humanity.

How they would be dealt with would be determined then and there, with no room for turning back.

About an hour later,

the meeting ended.

Yuan Dongzhi found Lin Zichen and informed him of the investigation results concerning Lu Gang and Wang Shujie, as well as the punishment they were to face.

The investigation found:

Both of them were confirmed to be members of the Divine Plant Cult.

During the practical college entrance exam, a safety officer forced them to consume a demonic seed.

Then, under threat and temptation, they chose to join the Divine Plant Cult.

The punishment was:

Both were expelled from Shanhai University and had to bear corresponding criminal responsibilities; their lives were pretty much ruined.

In addition, Yuan Dongzhi also mentioned that the education department of Nanjiang Province had started investigating this year’s practical exam and initiated accountability procedures, which should yield results soon.

Lin Zichen couldn’t help but feel a bit poignant after hearing all this.

Back when he first entered high school, Lu Gang and Wang Shujie had the halo of Nanguan City’s prodigies who looked down on everyone in the elite class of Shanhai High School, antic and invincible.

Yet, in just a short three years, both were behind bars.
