Reincarnated as a Mosquito, the School Beauty I Sucked to Tears is a Reborn Empress

It was obvious that Li Wenbo and his cohort of young masters and ladies from the Capital City didn’t want to spend a single extra minute with an ”outsider.”

They just wanted to get rid of Gu Yuexi, this unwanted tagalong who had been foisted upon them, as quickly as possible.

So that very afternoon, they used their family connections to summon a private jet, preparing to depart for Hong Kong Island immediately.

The interior of the private jet was the epitome of luxury, complete with leather sofas, a top-shelf bar, and an audio-visual entertainment system.

Gu Yuexi, naturally, was assigned to the narrowest, most out-of-the-way corner seat in the tail of the cabin, a spot that didn’t even have a window.

The plane took off smoothly, and soon, it had left the airspace of Celestial Fire Province.

Now that they had left the sphere of influence of the ”local powers,” the attitudes of the Capital City youths toward Gu Yuexi took a nosedive.

Back at the hotel, they had at least put on a semblance of courtesy, only muttering a few words under their breath.

Now, they couldn’t even be bothered to keep up the act. They spoke without reservation, as if Gu Yuexi were nothing but a puff of air.

The young man, Huang Mao, crossed his legs, a look of utter annoyance on his face. ”I can’t believe this. Why is there so much damn trouble in these inland backwaters? Some piss-ant family has the nerve to pull strings with us? They really don’t know their own place!”

A girl with heavy makeup curled her lip and chimed in, ”Exactly! A ’major provincial family’? Sounds impressive, but if you put them in our Capital City, they probably wouldn’t even qualify as a third-rate clan, right?”

Gu Yuexi kept her eyes closed, resting, and turned a deaf ear to their comments.

However, Chu Sheng, hidden in her hair, was rendered speechless by what he was hearing.

’Jeez,’ he thought, ’this world really is just one giant pecking order.’

’People from Du Nan City look down on those from small places like Jiang City, thinking they’re just country bumpkins.’

’And yet a metropolis like Du Nan, one of the top ten in the nation, is just a ’stinking backwater’ in the eyes of these Capital City lords.’

’How interesting...’

The group chatted on, but they seemed to grow bored of the topic and started talking about some recent amusing events in the Capital City.

Naturally, the conversation drifted to the juiciest piece of gossip currently making the rounds among the younger generation in the Capital City—the story of Jing University’s genius, Mu Chen, getting utterly wrecked in Spirit Martial Eternity by an ”Evil Giant Mushroom”!

The moment this was mentioned, Huang Mao burst out laughing and slapped his thigh. ”Hahaha! I was actually there! I thought that Mu Chen was about to break a record, and then he gets killed by a goddamn mushroom! I’m dying!”

The topic instantly piqued everyone’s interest, and the atmosphere in the cabin came alive.

”Seriously, Mu Chen completely disgraced himself this time! Getting worn down and killed by a Third-Grade Late Stage Contracted Beast... that stain on his record is probably going to follow him for the rest of his life!”

”Hahaha! You’re telling me! I heard he doesn’t even dare to go out anymore. The moment he steps outside, people are pointing and whispering!”

”To be honest, I’d never even heard of this Mu Chen before. Jing University has too many geniuses, and he was only kind of famous among the sophomores... But now he’s truly famous. Is there anyone who plays Spirit Martial Eternity that doesn’t know his name? I guess you could call it... a blessing in disguise?”

”Haha, nice one. Infamy is still a kind of fame, right?”

”Hahahaha! But to be fair, the guy just had bad luck! He was on the verge of breaking a record and then ran into an overpowered monster the devs cooked up! Who could have done anything in that situation?”

At this, most of them nodded in agreement.

Although they loved to talk trash, they all knew in their hearts that as a group of ignorant, spoiled brats, they were worlds apart from a true prodigy like Mu Chen. There was simply no comparison.

”He was indeed quite unlucky,” Li Wenbo agreed with a nod. But then his tone shifted, and a mysterious smile played on his lips. ”However, you’re wrong about one thing.”

”That ’Evil Giant Mushroom’ and its Master, [The Only Beast Taming Empress in Ancient and Modern Times], weren’t some boss created by the game developers. They... are both real.”
