After the elder heard this, his pupils tightened, and then he said to Lu Chen: "Actually, I understand what you two mean, and I am not such a cunning and mean person."
"Now that this matter is over and you two are back safely, I don't particularly want to punish you. I'll just treat it as if you went to the Su family to practice."
When Lu Chen and Bai Yu heard what the Great Elder said, they felt relieved. Fortunately, the Great Elder was a sensible person and would not punish them at all like others said.
But the words that followed made the two of them fall to the bottom in an instant. They only heard the elder say: "But, even if I don't want to punish you two, the relationship between the Su family and Mr. Su...
This matter has been completely spread throughout Dongsheng College."
"Everyone knows that the two of you went to the Su family, so no one knows the root cause of this matter. And the affairs of the Su family and Mr. Su are also of great concern to us in Dongsheng."
"So, after you two come back, our board of directors will decide. Then you will go to the board of directors and explain the whole matter to them."
"Actually, I don't want things to develop to this point. However, because the Su family is involved, the council must still intervene. You two were also within the Su family at the time, and you must have understood some of the situation.
"
After the great elder said these words, Bai Yu and Lu Chen froze there. They thought that after escaping the great elder's scolding, there was nothing to be afraid of.
But I really didn't expect that it would be really annoying to escape the great elder but then face the questioning of everyone on the council. There are so many elders on the council, and Lu Chen would have to ask a question one by one.
Answered.
So Lu Chen felt very headache and wanted to speak out and plead with the great elder, hoping that the great elder could exempt them two from the questioning of the council this time.
Just when Lu Chen was about to speak, the great elder made it clear and said to Lu Chen and Bai Yu: "This matter involves a very wide range of things, so there is nothing I can do."
"Although I really want to help you, I can't ignore the matters on the board of directors, so I'll wrong you two first and go to the board of directors to give a good explanation."
After the great elder said these words, he immediately turned around and walked towards the throne above the main hall. He continued to go back and found a very comfortable position, then lay down lazily on it again.
He kept fanning the cattail leaf fan with his right hand, closed his eyes, and acted as if nothing had happened just now. He waved to the two of them, indicating that they could leave now. After the notification, the two of them
It would be up to the council to resolve the matter.
When Lu Chen saw the Great Elder, who seemed to want to drive them away, Lu Chen couldn't help but want to say something more to the Great Elder. It might be to beg for mercy, or it might be dissatisfaction.
After obviously doing such a good thing, he still had to be called to the board of directors. Is the board of directors a place for people? Facing the questions from the elders, he could only answer them. Even if he refused to answer, Lu Chen
When I think about it like this, my mentality falls apart.
Just as he was about to speak to the great elder, Bai Yu immediately tugged on Lu Chen's sleeve. After Lu Chen felt the force, he turned back and looked at Bai Yu.
Bai Yu shook his head at Lu Chen and signaled him not to say anything more at this time, or to just retreat first.
Afterwards, Lu Chen listened to Bai Yu's words, and the two of them left the great elder's dormitory quietly. After coming out, Lu Chen seemed to have said all the grievances he had swallowed inside one by one.
come out.
The two of them had been complaining outside. They really didn't expect that things would turn out to be like this. At this time, Chi Qianyu seemed to have telepathy and happened to be in front of Lu Chen.
When he saw Lu Chen's gloomy look, he thought that Lu Chen must have been taught a lesson by the elder just now, so he walked up and patted Lu Chen on the shoulder.
He said to Lu Chen: "It's okay, Lu Chen. The Great Elder probably didn't punish you for anything. At most, he scolded you a few times and it was fine. Just treat it as a kind of love education. Put it in your left ear.
Just let the right ear come out."
At this moment, Chi Qianyu seemed to be gloating about his misfortune. When Lu Chen heard this, he glared at Chi Qianyu. Chi Qianyu was stunned by Lu Chen's glare.
Before, Lu Chen would not look at him like this when he heard what he said. Did he just say something wrong? Chi Qianyu was very puzzled.
When Bai Yu, who was standing next to Lu Chen at the moment, heard this, he immediately came over, took Chi Qianyu away, pulled him aside, and signaled him not to say anything more.
Chi Qianyu felt a little strange, so he immediately asked Bai Yu: "What happened? Why did he seem a little unhappy to me? Did the great elder say anything particularly outrageous after you entered?"
"
"He still gave you some punishment, but Lu Chen doesn't look like that kind of person. If he does something wrong, he will usually happily accept the punishment from the great elder. But why was his expression just now so weird?
It feels right."
Chi Qianyu expressed all the doubts in his heart to Bai Yu, and then Bai Yu sighed and said to Chi Qianyu: "No, the great elder didn't say anything to us just now, and he didn't give us any punishment, but what will happen next
Things are more severe than those punishments."
When Chi Qianyu heard this, he frowned and expressed that he did not understand. Then Bai Yu explained to him again: "Although the great elder did not scold the two of us, the two of us
I really didn’t expect that the matter would have to be resolved by the council.”
"Where is the council? The questions asked by the elders are all notoriously weird, and it is impossible not to answer them. What do you think this is not a kind of torture for us? Why did you just gloat about our misfortune?
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Chen must be in an extremely bad mood at the moment, so it would be better not to annoy him."
After Bai Yu made everything clear, Chi Qianyu felt a little scared when he thought about it. It would be better if Lu Chen gave him a look to understand just now. If Lu Chen was really angry at him just now, then he
It must be a little overwhelming.
Thinking like this, Chi Qianyu touched his chest with both hands and patted it. Fortunately, he didn't say anything too excessive just now, otherwise, he might really die.
After Bai Yu finished speaking to Chi Qianyu, he immediately turned around and returned to Lu Chen.
Said to Lu Chen: "Okay, Lu Chen, now that the matter has come to this, let's make some preparations. We may be called by the council tomorrow. Should the two of us first discuss how to answer them?"
ah."
Bai Yu asked Lu Chen, but Lu Chen still looked serious, without any smile, and did not agree with Bai Yu's statement.
Just listen to Lu Chen say to Bai Yu: "I don't think we should collude. Anyway, we went out and did good things, and we came back. There is nothing to say. Let it be when the time comes. We will answer whatever he asks."
, what is there to collude with, what is there to collude with.”
After Lu Chen said this, he walked straight towards the distance. Bai Yu felt very desolate after seeing his back.
Just now, he was not punished by the great elder, but Lu Chen had been protecting him. Although he didn't say it out loud, Bai Yu still felt it.
Otherwise, Lu Chen had been talking to the great elder at that time, which distracted the great elder, and then he did not pay too much attention to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu used to like Lu Chen very much because she thought he was very powerful and capable, but now this love has slowly turned into a great admiration.
Lu Chen's greatness has his own reasons. He usually works harder than others and looks for ways to practice. He is not blind. He only learns some methods within Dongsheng Academy, and he also
Will search for it.
He is also very good at dealing with people, so the disciples of Dongsheng College basically like Lu Chen, although they thought that his strength was not weak before, not as good as Ye Zi.
But now this matter has been quickly confirmed. Except for some people who often oppose Lu Chen, most people are still biased towards Lu Chen.
At this moment, Bai Yu felt that Lu Chen's whole body was glowing. It seemed that he had a strong shining point. No matter where he went, he had his own stage.
Bai Yu wants to learn from him. Even if they can't be lovers, Bai Yu still wants to be good friends with him, so that they can communicate together, help more people together, and endure punishment together.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen returned to his residence, immediately closed the door, and stayed inside for a long time. He seemed a little unhappy and had a lot of thoughts.
For the first time, he felt that he had done such a good thing and spent so much effort, but in the end he had to be punished. Lu Chen really couldn't figure it out. Maybe he was also angry with himself for not punishing him at the time.
Things were handled to an almost perfect condition.
It would have been great if he could have deceived the great elder and asked the great elder to agree to find Su Qiong himself.
But since he lied to the great elder, he admitted the matter, but why did the council have to intervene in this matter? What he deceived was the great elder, not the council.
Lu Chen felt a little unhappy after thinking this, so he stayed in the room. It wasn't until the next morning that a young disciple from Dongsheng informed Lu Chen and Bai Yu to go to the council.
The council elders wanted to talk to them. Lu Chen finally left the door where he lived. Bai Yu went to find Lu Chen first, set off with Lu Chen, and followed the young disciple to the council.
At this moment, Bai Yu was very nervous. After all, he had not been to the council yet, but Lu Chen was too calm. The calmness was a little different from usual, which was strange.
However, Bai Yu did not dare to talk to Lu Chen anymore this time, fearing that Lu Chen would be unhappy and ignore her, so there was no conversation along the way.
Dongsheng's young disciple brought the two of them to the door of the council and then withdrew. Lu Chen and Bai Yu pushed the door open and walked in. The atmosphere seemed a little tense at the moment.
