Chapter 392 A Most Sincere Gift
A most sincere gift.
After leaving the apartment, Ye Jiaojiao kept thinking about Yun Che's words.
The eldest senior brother told her that, in his opinion, what would make Si Ming happy might not necessarily be an original gift. What Si Ming cared about most was Ye Jiaojiao and the thought that Ye Jiaojiao put into preparing the gift for him.
That sincere heart is a priceless treasure to Si Ming.
The next day.
Taking a dedicated route from the Capital Star, Ye Jiaojiao arrived at the Academy Star before noon.
After a night of deep thought, she finally figured it out.
My senior brother is absolutely right!
To Si Ming, perhaps those gadgets from the cultivation continent were rare, but they were just vulgar things after all, expensive but not heavy.
Ye Jiaojiao decided that she would think carefully about this gift.
When the time comes, give her your sincere heart.
-
Imperial College.
After returning to the Academy Star, Ye Jiaojiao went to find her tutor Olive to cancel her leave. She thought Olive would say something to her for coming home late, but Olive was not angry but surprised when she saw her.
"Student Ye Jiaojiao?"
In the combat department instructor's office, Olive was admiring her own delicate hands. When she heard Ye Jiaojiao suddenly knock on the door and come in, she exclaimed in surprise.
"Student Ye, why are you back? Is there something wrong?"
Ye Jiaojiao: “???”
Ye Jiaojiao was stunned by Olive's question.
What do you mean, why is she back?
Shouldn't she go back to school?
Hasn't her leave expired?
Olive was confused, and Ye Jiaojiao was even more confused than her.
"Teacher Olive, I only took half a month off, and now more than half a month has passed. Wouldn't it be considered late if I came back today?"
For a moment, the two people in the office looked at each other, as if they had some information they didn't share. Olive was the first to react.
"That's not right. Mr. Ye has already taken leave until the end of this semester. You just need to report back when school starts in the first half of next year~"
"What?!!"
Opening the light brain, Olive called up the students' attendance records. She turned to the record belonging to Ye Jiaojiao, and with a swish, projected the leave record into a holographic image.
Ye Jiaojiao took a quick glance and found that the attendance record really showed that Ye Jiaojiao's leave would continue until the end of this semester. When she continued to read, she saw Mr. Yu's name written in the column of leave approver.
"Teacher Olive, does this mean that Mr. Yu has extended my vacation?" Ye Jiaojiao asked, pointing at Mr. Yu's name.
Olive nodded slowly after hearing this: "Yeah, don't you know about this?"
Forehead.
She really doesn't know
There was a moment of silence. Ye Jiaojiao was silent for a moment, and meeting Olive's curious gaze, she thought she should ask Mr. Yu first, so she didn't say anything more.
After leaving the teaching building, Ye Jiaojiao went straight back to the dormitory. The dormitory was very quiet at this time, and it was still the dormitory manager Daibi who greeted Ye Jiaojiao.
After the two of them showed concern for each other, Ye Jiaojiao returned to the dormitory.
When I opened the door, I saw Laura sitting on the sofa and browsing the Star Network.
"Mr. Ye? Mr. Ye is really busy. If you want to have dinner with Mr. Ye, you'll probably have to make an appointment a month in advance."
This is not the first time Ye Jiaojiao has asked for a long vacation. People like Laura, who have some background, can see through Ye Jiaojiao's behavior of disappearing for a while from time to time and the hospital's tacit approval.
After a brief moment of surprise, she quickly adjusted her facial expression and greeted him with enthusiasm and tentativeness.
A semester is only five months long. Ye Jiaojiao took a month off right after the start of the semester, and was absent for a short period in the middle. Now she hasn't been seen for more than half a month. The end of the semester is approaching in a blink of an eye. It can be said to be special.
Laura looked at Ye Jiaojiao with a smile.
Ye Jiaojiao looked back with a faint look in her eyes, and did not rush to respond.
She doesn't like to get along with people who are full of guesswork, and she doesn't like intrigue and scheming. The friends who are close to her are basically stubborn and straightforward, but she often senses a strong purpose in Laura.
Compared to Louisa, who is obsessed with fighting, Laura seems to be more curious about her and wants to find out who is behind her. Her purpose is greater than her sincerity.
"Well, something happened temporarily."
Without any intention of explaining further, Ye Jiaojiao nodded lightly at Laura.
Laura saw it, smiled slightly, and didn't ask any further questions.
After returning to her room, Ye Jiaojiao first sent a message to Mr. Yu, asking him if he was available now. After getting a positive answer, she made a video call to him.
With a ding, the video call was connected, and a virtual screen extended from the light brain on Ye Jiaojiao's wrist, projecting in front of her eyes.
"Mr. Yu."
In the holographic image, Mr. Yu is wearing the uniform white coat worn by scientific researchers. The background is not hidden, and judging from the layout, he should be in a laboratory in a scientific research institute.
"Student Ye is returning to Imperial College?"
While Ye Jiaojiao was looking at Mr. Yu, Mr. Yu was also looking at her.
Hearing Mr. Yu ask this, Ye Jiaojiao directly pointed out her doubts.
"Yes, I'm already in the dormitory. When I got back, I immediately went to Olive to cancel my leave. I found out that you had already applied for all my leave for this semester. I called to ask you about this."
"It was indeed me who approved Mr. Ye's leave."
In the video, Mr. Yu smiled and nodded.
"I once caught you asking Olive for leave. After learning that you were researching a repair potion, I was afraid she'd rush you back to the academy and affect your thinking, so I helped you extend your vacation. I acted on my own initiative and failed to inform you in advance. Did that affect Ye?"
At the end of the conversation, an expression of apology and worry appeared on Old Yu's weather-beaten face. Seeing this, Ye Jiaojiao quickly waved her hand and denied it.
"No, I also want to thank you for your thoughtful consideration for me~"
Ye Jiaojiao is not stupid. She knows that Mr. Yu extended her vacation because he wanted her to concentrate on studying the repair potion, and also because he was afraid that Teacher Olive would scold her.
In order to prevent Mr. Yu from blaming himself, Ye Jiaojiao took the initiative to change the subject after explaining.
"How's it going over there? Any progress on extracting the spirit stones?"
"Speaking of spirit stones, Xia Ming and I actually found something!"
When talking about the repair potion, the elderly Mr. Yu seemed like a different person. His back was no longer hunched, and he looked radiant with a sparkle in his eyes.
In the holographic image, Mr. Yu began to move. He left the laboratory and after a while he arrived at the door of another laboratory.
The scene changed, and a figure appeared in the video.
"Grandpa Xia."
Seeing Xia Ming, Ye Jiaojiao waved at the screen obediently.
"Jiaojiao is video chatting with Old Man Yu." Xia Ming was stunned when he heard Ye Jiaojiao's virtual image, but he quickly reacted and laughed out loud.
"Grandpa Xia, just now Elder Yu told me that you two discovered something interesting. What is it?"
Ye Jiaojiao was surprised that the two old men made a new discovery so quickly, and Xia Ming and Yu Lao also felt very proud.
"For the past two days, we've been experimenting with how to extract the spiritual energy you mentioned from the spirit stone. By comparing it with the genetic medicine released by the Mer Group, Old Man Yu and I actually discovered a similarity between the two. It's an unknown element, and Old Man Yu and I are currently working hard to overcome it."
Updates have been resumed, and the game will be finished normally within this month. Thank you for your support and waiting. Jiujiu is back!!!
