Chapter 99 Go to your room and have a look

Netherworld Duke's Mansion.

Zhu Zhuqing, who could not refuse Su Cheng's request, finally took him back to his home after the semester.

The two stood at the door of the tall and wide Duke's Mansion and knocked on the door of the mansion.

Within a moment, the door was opened by the servants of the Duke's Palace.

After seeing Su Cheng standing next to Zhu Zhuqing, a look of surprise flashed across several people's faces, but they didn't say anything more.

They bowed in unison and said: "Fourth Miss."

Fourth lady?

Su Cheng was a little surprised.

He really didn't know how many daughters the Zhu family had, but he didn't expect that Zhu Zhuqing actually had three sisters.

The custom of marriage between the Xingluo royal family and the Zhu family is to select the couple of children with the best qualifications in the family and get engaged to each other at an early age.

Of course, except for the first unmarried couple, the existence of the latecomers is more to serve as an incentive and can be called the victims of this bloody system.

After all, the talent gap between outstanding heirs is extremely limited, and the age advantage often becomes an insurmountable gap for both parties.

Unless the destined child has endless blessings, or the older one messes up on his own, there is almost no possibility of the latter surpassing him.

But in a cruel competition system like the Star Luo Empire, and with newcomers also eyeing him, how could the first-ranked heir relax in his cultivation?

This also leads to situations like Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's, where the possibility of eventual victory is actually very slim.

He is the unluckiest child in the family.

But other descendants who were not selected as heirs for marriage might end up much better.

After entering the palace gate, the two of them walked to the main hall under the guidance of the servant.

Su Cheng looked around at the scenery casually, sighing secretly in his heart.

It can only be said that the Netherworld Zhu family is worthy of being the second-largest family power in the Star Luo Empire after the royal family. The area of ​​the Duke's Palace alone is many times more than the Marquis Palace where he grew up.

Surrounded by magnificent carved beams and painted columns, the fences and columns are all made of precious yew and golden nanmu. The glazed tiles on the courtyard walls and roof shine dazzlingly under the afterglow of the setting sun.

Without stopping, they quickly passed through the front hall and garden in silence and arrived at the entrance of the hall.

The servants who led the way retreated voluntarily, and Su Cheng followed Zhu Zhuqing into the main hall.

It was obviously dinner time, but there were only two people in the hall, Duke Zhu Hongtao of Netherworld, and his wife. Zhu Zhuyun and other young ladies from the Zhu family were not seen.

Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward, still maintaining his expressionless and cold expression, and greeted lightly: "Dad, Mom."

The atmosphere is really strange.

Su Cheng changed his mind and took the initiative to step forward and salute: "Junior Fire Leopard Sect Su Cheng is Zhuqing's classmate in the academy and has met the Duke and Duchess."

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at him when he heard this and said nothing more.

A flash of surprise flashed in Zhu Hongtao's eyes. Isn't this the emperor's illegitimate son?

However, these looks were only fleeting, and I didn't pay too much attention to them.

He seemed indifferent to his arrival, with no other special reaction, and his attitude was neither enthusiastic nor indifferent.

He nodded to him and said calmly: "It turns out he is the young master of the Su family. No need to be polite. Since we are here, let's eat together."

No, this attitude wasn't just towards him.

Even towards Zhu Zhuqing, his biological daughter whom he had not seen for a year, he had an unusually calm attitude.

"Xiao Qing, please sit down too."

After hearing this, the two of them sat down at the luxurious dining tables in the hall.

Su Cheng silently observed the expressions of the Zhu family at this time.

The atmosphere is indeed a bit strange.

No, it's not a little weird, it's just too weird.

Although the decoration in the hall is magnificent and luxurious, the food on the table is also sumptuous and delicious.

But he felt as if he was enjoying the last meal of his life in a death row prison, and the whole atmosphere was extremely depressing.

During the meal, several people remained silent. Su Cheng also suppressed the discomfort in his heart and took the opportunity to observe Zhu Hongtao secretly.

This observation is extremely obscure.

Most of the time I just scan with my peripheral vision.

After all, the other party is a strong man with a cultivation level as high as Contra level. If he is not careful, he will be easily discovered and arouse the other party's vigilance and suspicion.

In silence, several people finished their dinner quickly.

Immediately afterwards, a servant walked into the hall and put away the tableware and a large amount of food left on the table.

The four of them were seated separately as guest and host, resting and chatting in the hall.

The main one is the question and answer between Zhu Hongtao and Zhu Zhuqing.

I briefly learned about the current situation in the academy and their current practice situation.

At this time, both Su Cheng and Zhu Zhuqing had reached level ten, and had added the first soul ring to their martial souls, becoming soul masters.

This cultivation speed can be regarded as extremely fast even based on their innate soul power levels.

But Zhu Hongtao didn't say much.

He simply nodded and moved past the topic.

Throughout the conversation, Zhu Zhuqing just spoke normally.Not a single word was mentioned about her experiences in the academy.

Su Cheng watched with cold eyes, not surprised by her behavior.

This is not just a matter of personality, but it is useless even if you say it.

He could see clearly from the sidelines.

Zhu Hongtao's words seemed to be concerned, but in fact they had no actual content at all.

The questions and answers were just routine, even a bit perfunctory.

Zhu Zhuqing must have known this well.

The conversation didn't last long.

In less than half an hour, Zhu Zhuqing's parents left together.

Only then did the oppressive atmosphere finally relax a little.

Zhu Zhuqing seemed to have been accustomed to this for a long time, and the expression on his face did not show any fluctuation.

Seeing them walking out of the hall, a pair of eyes looked at Su Cheng silently.

It was obviously a hint that it was time for him to leave.

<divclass="contentadv">Su Cheng pretended not to know, stood up and moved his body a few times.

He looked back at the other person and said with a smile: "Go to your room and take a look. I'll leave after sitting there for a while."

When Zhu Zhuqing heard this, he felt a little repelled in his heart.

It wasn't that she was worried about what Su Cheng would do to her.

That room was her only private space.

In this home, even in this world, only that place could bring her a little sense of security.

But after seeing Su Cheng's expression, she didn't refuse in the end.

Silently, he turned around and walked out of the hall, heading towards his boudoir.

Su Cheng also followed silently.

"As expected of the Duke's Palace, it's really luxurious. It's much better than where I live."

After entering the room, Su Cheng looked around casually and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

This is the truth.

Zhu Zhuqing's room is not as simple as a single bedroom, but similar to a complete independent house.

The front hall, main hall, bedroom, side hall and other single rooms are all good and spacious.

Although the Su family is considered a wealthy family in the Star Luo Empire, it is obviously far behind the Zhu family.

Su Cheng has been well clothed and well-fed since he was a child, and at least his living conditions are not inferior to those he had in the Qibao Glazed Sect.

Compared with the Zhu family, it is nothing more than a witch.

However, although Zhu Zhuqing's room was designed to be extremely elegant and full of low-key luxury, there were not many decorations inside, and it did not look like a girl's room at all.

"Are you the fourth young lady at home? How many children do you have at home?" Su Cheng walked to the main hall from the day before yesterday and asked casually.

"...Four." Zhu Zhuqing followed him silently.

"What about the other sisters? Why haven't I seen them today? They are not at home?"

"..."

After waiting for a moment, when Zhu Zhuqing didn't answer, Su Cheng stopped, looked back at the room, and turned to look at her.

Seeing Su Cheng looking at him like this, Zhu Zhuqing knew that he had to answer this question this time.

"The eldest sister goes to a senior college and rarely goes home. The second sister and the third sister..."

She was silent for a moment, and then continued: "I don't know where they are at this time."

"Don't know?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.

He originally thought that the Miss Zhu family, who did not have to bear the responsibility of marriage, might live a more comfortable life, but now it seems that this is not the case.

But when you think about it, it’s not surprising.

Even the descendants with the best qualifications have to go through this cruel and bloody competition.

Those with even worse qualifications will probably not have an easy time. There must be other trials waiting for them.

It seems that it is still difficult to figure out these things about the Zhu family from the little girl Zhu Zhuqing. She does not know much information herself, so she can only wait to see if there is a chance to dig out it in the future.

This seemingly insignificant information may be of great use in the future.

Su Cheng continued to walk inside. The main hall was much larger than the front hall, and the bedrooms and side halls were connected to both sides.

He glanced casually into the bedroom and noticed a rag doll placed on the table near the door.

But it was obviously quite old, and even though it was cleaned very clean, it already felt a bit old.

"Hey, I never thought you could play with this kind of thing."

Su Cheng said casually, feeling a little curious and wanted to walk closer to take a closer look.

"Don't move!" Zhu Zhuqing's expression suddenly changed. He quickly took a few steps forward and squeezed into the bedroom beside him, blocking his way forward.

His face was full of determination.

Su Cheng was a little surprised when she saw this. It seemed that the doll had a very special meaning to her.

But he didn't force it, these things had little to do with him.

He smiled and turned around, leaving the bedroom door and walking back into the hall.

"Where is the toilet in your house?"

"?" Zhu Zhuqing was a little confused. There was a toilet next to the side hall. Su Cheng should have seen it just now.

"Why, you won't let me use the ones in your room, right?" Su Cheng raised his eyebrows.

Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing blushed. She really didn't realize this before.

He quickly whispered: "I'll take you there."

"No, just tell me and I'll go there myself."

After Su Cheng left, Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at the puppet bear on the table.

This was a gift from her father when she was young.

It's a pity that the other party hasn't been to this room for many years.

At this moment--

"Beep, beep, beep..." A soft and powerful knock on the door suddenly sounded.

Zhu Zhuqing was a little puzzled.

With Su Cheng's character, he would still knock on the door and come back so soon?

Could it be that we didn't find the place?

The overall area of ​​the Duke's Palace is huge.

Even for the nearest toilet, it would take seven or eight minutes to go there and back. In addition to solving personal problems, it should take at least ten minutes.

She changed her mind, but still walked over quickly and opened the door.

The figure outside the door made her stunned.

"dad?"

There should be another chapter in the afternoon, and I want per day! ps, bravely resist school bullying, the bully will die!
