Chapter 69

"First love?!"

As soon as Zhuge Qianxing finished speaking, the three of them exclaimed at the same time.

Even Guo Qin, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help but jump out. Who would have thought that Zhuge Qianxing actually had such a past with Su Chengxin?

Ye Lin's expression also became strange; he had said how he felt the two of them weren't quite right, and they didn't look like enemies.

"First love, logically speaking, shouldn't it be the white moonlight? Teacher, why do I feel like the relationship between you two is..." Ye Lin stopped mid-sentence.

Zhuge Qianxing smiled bitterly, took off his glasses, and rubbed his eyebrows.

"This is a long story. At that time, I was just a young kid who had just entered university. Through a coincidence, I met Su Chengxin. We developed feelings for each other and determined our relationship and got together not long after."

"After that, we spent a relatively happy period of passionate love, and I also discovered a problem with Su Chengxin, which was that she liked to keep everything in her heart and then have a cold war with me."

"I told her to say it if she had something, and she said that true understanding doesn't need to be said. Then one time, we had a fight, she deleted all my contact information, and I went to find her but she ignored me."

"I thought we had broken up, but then about 6 years, or 7 years later, she suddenly sent me a message asking if I knew I was wrong after such a long cold war? If I coaxed her, she would get back together with me. That was when I realized she had never started a new relationship."

Zhuge Qianxing's face was full of helplessness; even Zhuge Ni was seeing her father show this expression for the first time.

In her memory, no matter what Zhuge Qianxing encountered, he always had an expression of being unperturbed by favor or humiliation.

"Mr. Zhuge, then what were you doing at that time?" Guo Qin couldn't help but gossip.

Zhuge Qianxing's expression was strange, and he looked at Zhuge Ni and said.

"At that time, Ni Ni had just been born, and I was holding the baby."

Ye Lin: "..."

Guo Qin: "..."

Zhuge Ni: "..."

The three of them didn't know what to say for a moment. If they said Su Chengxin was being difficult, she really had kept herself chaste for Zhuge Qianxing. Who would have thought that someone could have a cold war for six or seven years?

As for what happened later, even if Zhuge Qianxing didn't say it, they could roughly guess.

It's no wonder it turned out like this. Su Chengxin didn't think much of Ye Lin, who was a Forbidden Spellcaster, and with the relationship with Zhuge Qianxing, she couldn't admit him even more.

"Alright, let's not talk about this."

Zhuge Qianxing put on his glasses and returned to his calm and composed appearance. He first looked at Zhuge Ni.

"Ni Ni, with your strength and talent, you should be able to enter the Supreme Academy. You don't need to refuse because of me; the Supreme Academy is indeed the top academy in You Daxia."

"Okay." Zhuge Ni nodded obediently.

"As for Ye Lin, your best choice is only the You Daxia Academy." Zhuge Qianxing sighed and said.

Zhuge Ni looked sideways at Ye Lin, her eyes carrying a trace of pity.

Although Ye Lin defeated her and won the Qingcheng top spot, Ye Lin still couldn't be compared with her.

It was just a little achievement exchanged by overdrawing the future. After entering the Supreme Academy, her, Zhuge Ni's, future would only be more brilliant and dazzling.

Although she lost to Ye Lin, Zhuge Ni still hadn't changed her view of Ye Lin. That cowardly behavior of Ye Lin leaving her alone to face the Dragon-Blooded Giant Beast while he turned and fled still made her unable to let go.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Ni remembered Ling Ye again. Why didn't that guy participate in the college entrance examination? Could it be that he went to another city?

But it didn't matter; someone as excellent as Ling Ye would definitely appear in the Supreme Academy. A fire flashed in Zhuge Ni's beautiful eyes.

Perhaps when she got to the Supreme Academy, she could see Ling Ye!

"It's okay, Teacher, the You Daxia Academy isn't bad either." Ye Lin was quite open-minded. He had lived in the slums for more than ten years; no matter what, the You Daxia Academy would be better than the slums of Qingcheng, right?

"Then you two go and prepare; the people from the admissions office should be here soon."

As soon as Zhuge Qianxing finished speaking, the wooden door of the small courtyard was knocked on.

Before Zhuge Qianxing could speak, the door was pushed open, and then Su Chengxin walked in with Yun Guanlou.

Having just finished listening to Zhuge Qianxing's story about Su Chengxin, and then seeing the person involved, the expressions of the three, Ye Lin, were all a bit interesting.

Su Chengxin didn't notice anything wrong, walked straight toward Zhuge Ni, then took out a gilded admission notice from an exquisite leather folder, handed it to Zhuge Ni, and revealed a gentle smile.

"Student Zhuge Ni, I represent the Supreme Academy and formally extend an invitation to you, hoping you can become a member of our Supreme Academy."

"Thank you, Teacher Su."

Zhuge Ni took the admission notice, looking at the hot-stamped big characters on it, a trace of bright light flashed in her eyes. The Supreme Academy was so highly praised even by her father, it must have its extraordinary aspects.

Zhuge Ni held the Supreme Academy's admission notice, dangling it in front of Ye Lin as if showing off.

In fact, that was indeed what she was thinking.

Something Ye Lin tried his best to fight for but couldn't get, yet she got it; wasn't this a kind of victory?

"Alright, then I'll go first, remember to report to the academy." Su Chengxin smiled faintly, didn't even look at Zhuge Qianxing, and turned to leave.

Before Yun Guanlou left, he made a throat-slitting gesture toward Ye Lin, and only then followed Su Chengxin away.

Ye Lin's expression was as usual, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Just after Su Chengxin left, a large crowd of people came over. Leading them was a man with a dragon-like gait and a majestic appearance. The principal of Qingcheng High School, Gao Zhenyu, and a large group of reporters and photographers followed behind this man.

"Ye Lin, come here quickly, this is our Qingcheng City Lord, Hu Weng!" Gao Zhenyu hurriedly introduced.

"Student Ye Lin, hello, the top scholar really has an extraordinary temperament." Hu Weng stretched out his big hand, and the photographers behind him hurriedly gave a close-up shot upon seeing this.

Ye Lin didn't move, but frowned with some confusion.

"Principal, what is this for?"

"The City Lord is here to award you the top scholar prize, the bonus alone is five million!" Gao Zhenyu whispered.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin's brows instantly relaxed, his face beamed with joy, and he hurriedly and excitedly shook Hu Weng's hand.

"Oh my! So it's City Lord Hu, I've long heard of your great name, I've long heard of your great name, it's really better to see you once than to hear of you a hundred times!"
