Chapter 343: 343 Send you six words (first update)

Ms. Wu watched Chu Jin walk away,

her eyes slightly deep with concern.

She was worried that this young girl had been blinded by fame and fortune, unable to see clearly the path she ought to take.

In her decade-plus years of teaching, she had seen too many students like her.

She hoped that Jin would follow her heart.

Not to be so eager for quick success and immediate benefits.

Because she hadn’t chatted with Ms. Wu, Chu Jin quickly returned to the classroom.

"What did Ms. Wu want with you?" Miao Xinran leaned over and asked.

Chu Jin suppressed the excitement in her heart and tried to keep her tone as calm as possible, "Nothing much, just that a TV station wants to interview me, that’s all."

But no matter how well she hid it, the hint of pride that showed on her face was evident.

She had lived for eighteen years.

Even though she had once been a wealthy young Miss, and her studies had always been excellent.

But she had never been this powerful.

To actually have a TV station come to interview her.

What an honor that was.

Thinking that her life would continue to be splendid from here on out, Chu Jin’s heart was filled with a sense of superiority and joy.

This kind of life was truly a joy.

Someone like her was destined to live amidst the envy of others.

In the future, she was bound to have a brilliant life, a world of glory.

Miao Xinran had been smiling warmly at Chu Jin, but upon hearing her words and seeing the triumphant look on her face, the smile on her lips slowly faded.

Was the person before her really the Jin she knew?

This was too unreal.

Could she still see herself?

Had Jin genuinely changed?

"The TV station is coming to interview you? Why would they want to interview you?" Miao Xinran twirled her pen and continued to ask, "Did you agree to it?"

Chu Jin’s mouth curved into a smile, "Yeah, the TV station wants to interview me because the speech I wrote on life won a national first prize, so they want to interview me. Ms. Wu said it’s not just one TV station either. Since you’re my deskmate, maybe you can bask in my glory and appear on TV with me."

In Chu Jin’s eyes, being interviewed by several TV stations was a very big deal.

After all, she was only eighteen.

Many people go through their whole lives without ever appearing on TV.

And here she was, accomplishing it with such ease.

"So that means you accepted their interview?" Miao Xinran frowned slightly.

The Jin she knew was not so fixated on fame and fortune.

Accepting a TV interview, placing oneself on a pedestal, and even speaking to her in that tone.

"What’s wrong?" Chu Jin glanced sideways at Miao Xinran, "Are you unhappy that I’m being interviewed by a TV station?"

Looking at Miao Xinran, she knew she must be jealous.

Jealous that she was being interviewed by a TV station.

Chu Jin had never imagined that there would come a day when Miao Xinran would be envious of her!

Her heart was filled with delight.

Miao Xinran rolled her eyes in exasperation, "I’m not unhappy. It’s just that I feel it’s not very good for you to accept a TV interview right now. You really should consider it some more, after all, we’re about to take the college entrance exam. Wouldn’t it distract you at this critical time? Plus, you’re already popular enough on Weibo. Becoming a public figure too soon isn’t beneficial for you."

Miao Xinran was speaking the truth. For Chu Jin to accept interviews at this time was indeed an unwise choice.

Gaining fame too early and being blinded by it was not a good thing,

especially at such a crucial time.

Chu Jin scoffed, "In the end, you’re just jealous, Xinran. I really didn’t expect you to be this kind of person."

"Jin!" Miao Xinran’s voice rose slightly with anger, "Why have you become like this?"

The corners of Chu Jin’s mouth rose in a curve, "Oh, are you feeling embarrassed and angry now?"

Miao Xinran took a deep breath, trying hard to calm herself down, "Jin, I want to give you six words."

Chu Jin lifted her chin, and spat out a word, "Speak."

Miao Xinran looked at her earnestly and said deliberately, "Arrogance invites ruin; humility receives benefits."

The current Chu Jin was truly too impetuous.

She had completely lost the essence of her past self.

Chu Jin laughed lightly, "If saying that makes you feel better, then fine, I accept."

"Forget it, let’s pretend I didn’t say anything." Miao Xinran sat upright, neatening up the books on the desk one by one.

The person before her was becoming less and less like the Jin she knew.

**

Elsewhere, in the forest.

The sunlight bathed the earth, and the sky above the woods was tranquil, the golden sun casting a layer of gold on the leaves.

Nobody would have imagined that beneath the trees there was a bloody massacre unfolding.

The White Tiger had completely lost control. It roared! It bellowed! Its claws slashed through tree after tree, and the ground was riddled with claw marks, the surroundings in utter chaos.

Chu Jin’s Spiritual Power within her had reached its limits. She hadn’t expected that the White Tiger would suddenly break free in a violent fit. Continuing to struggle against it would only lead to mutual destruction; the formation would break, and she would perish!

Dodging the pouncing White Tiger, she clutched her chest, groaned softly, and felt a coppery sweetness surge up from the depth of her throat. A trace of bright red blood ran down the corner of her mouth, the crimson against her pale skin startlingly intense, yet not out of place, instead revealing another sort of ethereal beauty.
