Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 753: A Piece of Chocolate

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Coral had done preparations to come here long ago. But as she was about to board the plane, the wave of mutated creatures occurred. The entire natural order had been overthrown.

At first, the Deities took the wave very seriously, as no one knew exactly what would happen. Thus, as the Master of Gods, Coral had to stay behind.

It was definitely inappropriate for the Master of Gods to be away during such a situation. Coral was also the strongest in the Deities. How could she leave?

They needed Coral to stay behind. The Deities had discovered that there was a Class B creature hiding in the mountains. It was resting and building up its strength. They needed Coral to take action.

It was precisely because of this that Coral could not go to the Heavenly Network until the Deities had gained control of the situation. Coral first went to the Capital to see Nie Ting. After all, the leaders of the two large organizations need to discuss some things face to face. For example, admission into the Luo Shen Cultivation College...

At first, Nie Ting wanted to admit Coral as a special lecturer. On one hand, he wanted to make use of their resources. On the other hand, he considered Coral’s position, as well as the fact that she was a Class A expert. It was inappropriate to admit her as a student.

But Coral shook her head and rejected him. She could not be a teacher. No matter what, she could not be a teacher...

Nie Ting had left for the Kunlun Mountains after the discussion. While Lu Shu and the rest were at the Kunlun Mountains, Coral had bought the apartment and started renovations. The renovations were still not yet complete.

It was also during this period that Nie Ting gave Coral special admission to go to school. She would be an exchange student in the combat specialization. Earlier, Coral had wanted to join the investigations specialization as the Deities’ information network was lacking. After all, the Heavenly Network’s information network was top-notch.

But Nie Ting did not agree. He was not willing to allow other organizations to know about the Heavenly Network’s information system, not even their allies. This was the rule.

He wanted to protect the members of the Heavenly Network who were working overseas. He wanted to prevent them from encountering danger because others knew about their information systems.

As for the combat specialization, Coral was a Class A expert. There was actually not much that she could learn.

Earlier, the students in the techniques research specialization had hoped to be able to obtain techniques through this specialization. But they had their hopes too high. They only learned about theories in class. For example, they learned about the mystery of humans and the mystery of Spirit Qi. The contents of the course were to allow them to understand how Spirit Qi operated in their bodies. They were expected to develop their own techniques.

It was midnight. Everyone had started to turn off their lights. Lu Xiaoyu suddenly sat up in her bed. She pressed her ear against the wall and heard Lu Shu singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. She laughed coldly. “How childish!”

Lu Xiaoyu secretly went to the roof. She did not know why she wanted to go there. She just wanted to sit there. In the past, Lu Shu had always accompanied her.

She quietly sat at the edge of the rooftop and swung her legs. The stars gathered above as Lu Shu sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, but Lu Xiaoyu could not see them.

Lu Xiaoyu took out a crystal clear glass bottle. It was filled with all kinds of chocolates. They were from Coral to Lu Shu.

Earlier, she had not eaten the chocolates. Instead, she had hidden them. The chocolates that she had been chewing were her own. Although Lu Xiaoyu did not want to let Lu Shu eat the chocolates, she would not finish them so easily.

The first piece of chocolate that Lu Xiaoyu had ever eaten had been bought by Lu Shu.

Back then, Lu Shu had secretly saved two dollars to buy a small piece of Dove chocolate. It seemed to be the most expensive chocolate in the shop. The small piece had been taken out from a box and was sold to children. Lu Shu could only buy a small piece.

Back then, Lu Xiaoyu had said that it was fine even if it cost twenty cents, but Lu Shu would not accept it. He said that chocolate was delicious, and the first piece of chocolate in your life had to be a good one. If you bought an inferior chocolate that was not as tasty, this world would be very disappointing.

Back then, Lu Shu had never eaten chocolate either. The orphanage only gave out cheap hard fruit candies. Lu Shu ate one of the candies as he watched Lu Xiaoyu eat the chocolate. He then asked her whether it was good with a face full of anticipation.

Lu Xiaoyu understood that what Lu Shu had given her was the best that he could obtain with his current situation.

After she grew up, she discovered that there were chocolates that cost thousands, or even tens of thousands of dollars. But Lu Xiaoyu felt that they would never be as delicious as the two dollar piece of chocolate back then.

Lu Xiaoyu had decided that when she grew up, she would buy Lu Shu chocolates. But there was no need now. Someone else had given him chocolates.

This feeling... Lu Xiaoyu felt rather dejected.

Little Fury carried its small bag and ran back home. It looked up and saw Lu Xiaoyu on the roof. Little Fury jumped up and sat beside Lu Xiaoyu.

It took out its small notebook and wrote on it. “What’s wrong? That looks good. Can I eat some?”

Lu Xiaoyu kept the bottle into the space ring. “No. It’s Lu Shu’s.”

Oh. Little Fury nodded its head. It would not eat the demon king’s food.

It wrote again. “Are you unhappy?”

Lu Xiaoyu looked at Little Fury. “Is it that obvious?”

Little Fury nodded its head and wrote on its notebook. “Is it because of Lu Shu?”

“Probably... is.” Lu Xiaoyu was not paying attention.

Suddenly, Little Fury wrote something. “Today, I stole...” Little Fury used the eraser behind the pencil to erase the words. “Today, I picked up a comic book. It said that everyone will get married. Will you get married to Lu Shu? And have those beautiful weddings?”

Lu Xiaoyu was dumbfounded. “Get married? To Lu Shu?”

“Yup. Have you thought about it before?” Little Fury wrote.

Lu Xiaoyu was stunned. She had never thought about this. It was not whether she wanted to get married or not. She had just never thought of it.

Ever since they met, Lu Shu had become her world. He always gave the best to her. If she had something good in her hands, she would also think about Lu Shu. If she had money, she would treat Lu Shu to the best hotpot. In winter, she would buy an expensive coat for Lu Shu. She would also give him a few sturdy pairs of shoes.

She was dejected, because Lu Shu was her everything. Without Lu Shu, she would be nothing. The world was big, but it would mean nothing to her.

It would be empty.

Lu Xiaoyu wanted to run away from home and see if Lu Shu would find her. How long would it take for him to realize that she was missing? She was like a child who wanted to see whether their existence was important. She wanted to use a very childish way to see whether the person she cared about actually cared about her.

But where would she go?

As Lu Xiaoyu was thinking, the main door suddenly opened. Lu Shu shouted, “Lu Xiaoyu, where are you? Come back.”

“Stop shouting, I’m here!” Lu Xiaoyu laughed. Okay. Her first attempt to run away from home had failed.
