Yeah, it’s a spell Cleaning Spell. Pretty practical,” I said, calming myself and explaining without complaint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can already use spells?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han asked, visibly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh… sort of. Using spells is actually simpler than you’d think,” I nodded, but I didn’t want her to misunderstand that using a spell and mastering it were two different things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know, it’s a spellbook, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? You know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She actually knew?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was I the clown here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d been thinking about how to explain spellbooks and spell slots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know a bit. The senior who’s been guiding me these past few days mentioned it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s nice…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sighed sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d been guided by a senior for two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t I get that treatment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, no, I had Sister Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I hadn’t asked her about these things, since I didn’t even know the concepts back then, so I had no reason to bring them up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han noticed my unmasked envy and seemed about to explain, but she didn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, there was no need to explain her treatment was a reflection of her own worth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Xia Li’s voice came from the back, indicating the store manager was done with her tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yihan, seriously, you took the club application form without telling me? I had to search for it forever,” Xia Li’s voice carried a hint of exasperation, though she couldn’t bring herself to scold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you didn’t tell me you were looking for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How was I supposed to know, Store Manager?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, I’m the one who usually handles these things,Senior Tang Yihan’s voice followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, their figures appeared in the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Han Come here. I found the application form. If you’re set on joining the Bakery Club, come sign it”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Li waved at Tan Han with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Xia Li’s voice, I instinctively thought she was calling me, but when I saw Tan Han move, I froze in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My eyes widened in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han was joining the Bakery Club too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Has she been brainwashed by Xia Li?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t she know the state of the Bakery Club?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including me, there were only four members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was she after?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The store manager’s little savings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I had a feeling the Transcendent Knowledge in that little savings wasn’t safe anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What else could Xia Li have used to lure Tan Han?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her charisma?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I certainly didn’t see it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I could see that the Senior Store Manager was loaded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she had a thousand flaws, she paid my wages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she paid them so promptly yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could hold a grudge against wages?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where else could you find a boss this good?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior Xia, please call me Little Tan. That’s what my family always calls me. Little Han feels a bit odd,” Tan Han said to the store manager as she walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was touched by Tan Han’s statement, but that didn’t stop me from following to see what was happening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time I got there, Tan Han had already filled out the form without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her speed shocked me didn’t she want to think it over?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright Congratulations to Tan Han for becoming our Bakery Club’s fourth…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Li was about to celebrate when she was interrupted by Ying Shiqian and Tang Yihan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Store Manager, correction it’s the fifth! We forgot to tell you something,” Ying Shiqian hurriedly explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? Fifth? How did I not know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Li was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the store manager and club president.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How was she unaware?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s Little Han! Yang Yuehan. This morning, we pulled Little Han into the club. We were waiting to tell you when you got here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little Han?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Li turned to me with a suspicious look, then glanced at Ying Shiqian and Tang Yihan, as if asking what was going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Seriously, Store Manager, can you stop focusing only on Tan Han? You really don’t care about your employees. Yesterday, Little Han succeeded in her first attempt at meditation! You don’t want a little genius like that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Xia Li’s confused expression, Ying Shiqian launched into a lecture, making it hard to tell who the store manager was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hm? Huh? What… ah?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Li let out four exclamations in a row, unable to form a complete sentence, showing just how shocked she was by the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han, who had just set down her pen, looked directly at me for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even she couldn’t ignore this news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had initially thought this freshman in the shop wouldn’t have much to do with her, so she’d kept her distance, not pursuing deeper interaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d seen too many people try to cozy up to her, but Little Han felt different keeping a respectful distance without forcing contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meditation mentioned by the senior likely referred to the Witch Meditation Method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han had learned about it over the past two days but hadn’t tried it yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d asked about meditation, including time records and other details, so she understood what succeeding on the first attempt meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Han realized it was time for her to take the initiative to build a relationship with Little Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meditation was the cornerstone of harnessing transcendent energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Making a casual friend and discussing meditation topics seemed like a good idea.\u003C\u002Fp>",1174,"2026-06-03T10:21:36.430Z","2026-06-03T10:21:31.928Z",1,"novelbin.me","17424cfbd8f691548deafadf778953c3e5a5241971d188b5549ea84f150ebade","is-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-chapter-73","is-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-chapter-71",710,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fis-it-weird-for-a-guy-to-apply-to-a-witch-school-cover.jpg"]
