Chapter 306: Younger Brother Comes Running Wild
Wu Jiang is also a notable figure at Jianan University, a high-level talent rehired to give guidance, and throughout the campus he is an object of admiration.
As the captain of the strongest squad of the Jianan City Night Watch, even the school leaders treat Wu Jiang courteously.
But now he is actually being so respectful toward a woman in her early twenties.
For a moment, the classmates were stunned, all speculating about Lin Meng's identity.
"She said she came to see her younger brother, so that means there's a male student with a strong background in this year's Night Watch Preparatory Class at our school."
"The preparatory class doesn't value family influence, only talent and strength, so there shouldn't be any backdoor admissions; one can only say that the deeper one's background, the more likely their talent surpasses that of ordinary people."
"Just now that older sister's aura was very fierce; you say her strength has reached what level? Why can't I sense any supernatural power from her?"
The classmates whispered among themselves, watching Lin Meng and Wu Jiang enter the lecture hall, left only with envy.
After entering the lecture hall, Wu Jiang finally noticed the little girl following Lin Meng and hurriedly asked.
"Student, how did you also come in?"
Lu Wei hurriedly explained politely: "Team Captain Wu, I'm a preparatory class newcomer reporting today, my name is Lu Wei."
Upon hearing that, Wu Jiang's expression flickered, and he surveyed Lu Wei with some surprise.
"You're that S-rank talent healer? You're not bad; I have high hopes for you."
Lu Wei's face flushed red with excitement; being praised by the Night Watch captain left her flustered, and she could only bow to Wu Jiang.
Upon learning Lu Wei's talent, Lin Meng was also greatly surprised inside.
This pretty girl is actually also an S-rank awakened; isn't that comparable to Ye Xiu's talent?
Moreover, Lin Meng had heard of the healer profession from Ye Xiu before.
Back then she pulled him from the god of death's hands at the opera house, and that kid guessed she might be an S-rank talent healer.
If that's truly the case, then this S-rank healer's healing ability is also formidable, almost capable of resurrecting the dead and regenerating flesh from bones.
Such supernatural talent, in some respects, is even rarer than Ye Xiu and more worthy of cultivation and protection.
No wonder, after confirming Lu Wei's identity, Wu Jiang's eyes lit up as if he'd seen a great treasure.
"Senior sister, I'll go find the class teacher first; let's chat later."
After Lu Wei and Lin Meng exchanged greetings, she went to find her counselor, while Wu Jiang led Lin Meng to a nearby seat, then hurriedly left to report the situation to several leaders at the front of the lecture hall.
At that moment, on the high platform, the school officials had already noticed Lin Meng and clearly seen Wu Jiang's actions.
After Wu Jiang reported secretly, the school leaders all looked at Lin Meng with shocked faces.
"I never expected the mysterious owner of the supernatural artifact, the talk of the town lately, to be such a young girl, and moreover a family member of this year's new students at our school!"
"Team Captain Wu, you know her; after the lecture ends, please help us recommend her—if Jianan University could establish relations with her, it would also be a good thing for the college."
Wu Jiang nodded, thinking that Lin Meng seemed to value Ye Xiu greatly, and since Ye Xiu is now a member of Jianan University, she likely wouldn't refuse to deal with the school's high-level officials.
But what needs to be reminded still must be reminded.
Wu Jiang thought for a moment and then said to the several high-level officials:
"Miss Lin directly refused the Night Watch Management Bureau's request; several seniors, you must absolutely not bring up any excessive demands later, lest you cause offense."
Facing Wu Jiang's slightly warning-like reminder, the high-level officials not only didn't feel offended, but instead kept nodding,
"It's still Team Captain Wu who thought things through; later when we speak with that young lady, we should pay attention."
"Exactly, following the principle of friendly association, we must never greet her with the attitude we usually use for juniors."
"……"
After Lin Meng sat in the back row, her gaze began to search the lecture hall for Ye Xiu's figure.
This lecture hall is huge, able to hold tens of thousands, but at present only a few rows have people seated.
From the students' discussions along the way, Lin Meng knew this should include all the students of the Night Watch Preparatory Class, with upperclassmen also present.
Even so, the number of students is still less than three hundred.
At this moment, the classmates also seemed to notice Lin Meng, turning their heads to look at her, most with curiosity and scrutiny.
Lu Wei finally found the organization, took a seat in the freshman class, and soon someone came to strike up a conversation.
"Fellow student, fellow student, I just saw you entering together with that great beauty behind you; do you know who she is?"
"Right, even Team Captain Wu treats her courteously, but I don't think I've ever seen her before."
Upon hearing that, Lu Wei glanced toward Lin Meng's direction, then scanned the classmates, thinking, and after a moment said:
"That pretty older sister's younger brother is right here in our freshman class; I also ran into her by chance at school, she's a wonderful person, I really like her."
As Lu Wei finished speaking, the freshman class instantly became lively.
"Whose older sister is she in our class? Goodness, how enviable; I wish I could have such a fairy-like older sister too."
"Moreover, her status is surely not low; it seems even the leaders are talking about her—whose family background in our class is the strongest?"
The classmates whispered privately, their discussion intense.
And in the corner, a figure silently paid attention to the surroundings; upon hearing the classmates discuss the topic of older sisters, he suddenly clenched his hands.
He thought, he missed his sister so much; it's been over a week since school started, the new villa has already been selected and arranged for his sister, why hasn't she come yet?
Ye Xiu's longing for Lin Meng absorbed him completely, to the point that even when a classmate beside him called out, he didn't notice, until the other lightly pushed his arm.
"Ye Xiu, what are you spacing out about? Do you know that pretty older sister? I recall you said you have a younger sister and also an older sister, right?"
Ye Xiu's roommate brought his thoughts back; he suddenly snapped to attention and quickly looked in the direction his roommate pointed.
In a solitary spot at the back of the lecture hall sat a lone figure.
That person was precisely the sister he had been day and night thinking of!
Ye Xiu instantly jumped up and, without hesitation, sprinted wildly toward Lin Meng.
His three roommates were dumbfounded; Ye Xiu, usually indifferent to everything, what did he see to become so excited?
At that very moment, Lin Meng only felt a dark shadow rushing toward her.
Upon looking up again, that youthful, vibrant face had already come close to her eyes, breaking into a brilliant smile for her.
"Sister, it's really you!"
Ye Xiu was extremely excited; regardless of how his classmates viewed him, he unhesitatingly sat beside Lin Meng.
He couldn't bear to see his sister sitting here all alone; he wanted to come keep her company.
