Free Web NovelChapter 171: Chapter 171: The Unluckiest Person
As Chloe Sinclair stared in confusion, Miles Myers’s expression instantly softened with sympathy. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
His tone grew much gentler as he said, "We’ve all seen the trending video. You should just rest at home for the next few days. The most important thing is to recover."
Chloe Sinclair blankly held the leave of absence form and opened her mouth to speak. "What do you mean?"
Mr. Myers said, "You did a brave thing, but if something like this happens again, I hope you’ll prioritize your own safety first."
"You are too important to the nation."
"We can’t afford for anything to happen to you."
Chloe Sinclair was now on the radar of the higher-ups. Her discoveries, from three-dimensional quanta to the Hall effect, had already shocked the entire field.
If not for her young age and low-key nature, her abilities would have already put her on par with some of the top figures in her field.
"Fill out the leave form. Come back to school whenever you feel rested, and try not to think about what happened today."
After hearing all this, Chloe Sinclair finally understood what Mr. Myers was getting at.
"Professor, I’m fine physically, and I haven’t suffered any psychological trauma. I don’t need to take time off."
With that, Chloe Sinclair handed the leave of absence form back to him.
A flicker of hesitation crossed Miles Myers’s eyes. He glanced at the other professors from the School of Physics in the office.
However, at that exact moment, they all lowered their heads in unison, adopting a ’you can’t see me’ posture.
Mr. Myers: "..."
In the end, Mr. Myers could only grit his teeth. "Fine, you can continue your classes. But I’m granting you one day off. Rest well tomorrow, and come back the day after."
This time, Chloe Sinclair didn’t refuse. During the second class period, she took the approved form and left.
Back at her apartment, Chloe Sinclair finally had a moment to check her phone.
However, the instant she turned it on, her phone was flooded with countless messages.
The next moment, the phone lagged and the screen went black.
In the end, it took Chloe Sinclair a great deal of effort to get her phone working again.
On WeChat, the Sinclair Family had called her over a hundred times.
And Jasper Shaw had also sent more than twenty text messages and called over a dozen times.
After replying to those who were worried about her, she opened Weibo.
Unsurprisingly, she was trending again.
Because this time, the buzz was even more intense than before.
Within three hours, the topic had spread internationally, racking up over fifty million views.
Many foreigners who saw the video expressed their shock.
[OMG, are all the girls in Zenthia this ferocious? She kicked that guy so far!]
[This girl has to be from our Halycon, right? How could someone from Zenthia possibly have those skills?]
[This Zenthian girl looks so familiar. Isn’t she that ’Loop Run’ girl who went viral all over the internet a few months ago? It has to be her!!]
[Hey, you guys in the comments above, can we focus on the video itself? This young woman is incredibly brave, daring to face so many thugs by herself. On a side note, do all people from Zenthia know kung fu?]
...
These comments were reposted from international forums to Weibo, and in no time, they had generated tens of millions of engagements.
Netizens from Zenthia were just as amusing, chiming in with their own comments:
[Can any of our friends who can ’jump the wall’ get a message to the foreign netizens? I don’t know if everyone in Zenthia knows kung fu, but I’m damn sure Chloe Sinclair does.]
[Forget the foreign netizens being shocked, I was floored myself. When I first clicked on it, I thought I was watching a movie. Then I checked the source and realized it was from an official government site!]
[I know this might kill the vibe, but I can’t help but say it: isn’t Chloe Sinclair’s luck just a little too awful?]
