I, The Female Protagonist With Superpower, Am Super Fierce

Chapter 198: Lovesickness Spilling Into A River

In the following days, Gu Yan devoted the rest of her time in reviewing after her daily work and training.

She finished all the sets of questions.

Guo Rou even went to find third-year teachers who could help in checking the answers for her.

Eventually, Gu Yan’s review progress surpassed those of third-year students.

Life went on day by day. Gu Yan could only look at the calendar while yearning for Lu Ye.

She wondered how his mission was doing, whether he was in danger, or if he encountered any tricky situations.

She began to miss him the very first day they parted. As time went on, that lovesickness overflowed into a river.

As New Year was fast approaching, the weather got colder and colder.

Today, Gu Yan was sweeping the snow with Guo Rou. It was their daily job.

They wore warm clothes, but because of the labor they had to do, they ended up overheated. Hence, they took off their scarf and hat in the meantime.

Guo Rou asked curiously, “Gu Yan, are you really not going back home during the holiday?”

“Mhm, it’s too far away. The trip would only be a waste of time. I still need more to prepare for the examination.”

“Do you not miss your family?”

Gu Yan suddenly stopped in her tracks.

‘Family…’

Her mind instantly conjured Xie Luan’s image.

Gu Yan bowed her head.

She really wanted to give Xie Luan another treatment. Even if it couldn’t completely cure her, it could still ease up her condition.

However, she didn’t have any opportunity to do it.

Moreover, the jade pendant was going through a strange phase lately.

Ever since Gu Yan treated Xie Luan and exhausted every bit of its power, Gu Yan fed the jade pendant plenty of food. However, the leaf couldn’t recover its emerald green color.

Nevertheless, it became taller and larger.

Gu Yan realized she hadn’t figured out how the jade pendant functioned, so she could only watch the changes.

Luckily, the healing properties remained. Unfortunately, it wasn’t as effective as before.

‘Is it hibernating then?’

‘The sapling couldn’t be hibernating, right?’

Perhaps because Gu Yan fell silent for quite a while, Guo Rou became worried.

“Gu Yan, how about coming home with me during the holiday? Shen Jiayi lives in the elite region too. We’ll have company. We can also play with fireworks together.”

If it was any other time, Gu Yan would have gone without hesitation.

But celebrating the new year was time for family reunions.

Gu Yan smiled. “Forget it, I can’t go. But when you come back from home, you can bring me some dumplings. If there are other tasty foods, can you bring some back for me too?”

Guo Rou sighed. “Okay, in that case, I’ll definitely bring some dumplings for you. Let me tell you, the dumpling our maid cooks is so tasty.”

“Sure.”

As the two chatted and cleaned the area, they suddenly heard someone scream.

Gu Yan looked up and saw Bai Changle who suddenly fell onto the ground. However, he acted fast, and the moment he slipped, he supported himself with his palm and stood back up.

He was really…

Gu Yan didn’t laugh to save his face.

However, Guo Rou didn’t care. She was more familiar with Bai Changle anyways. She laughed to heart’s content.

“Captain Bai, what martial arts are you training?”
