Chapter 199
A tall man in camouflage uniform stepped out of the energy vehicle, his body still carrying the thick smell of gunpowder smoke from the battlefield.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, I am Wang Guangnian, President of the Imperial United University, and this is my deputy, Ouyang Lu. On behalf of the Imperial United University, I warmly welcome you."
As soon as Huo Qi got out of the car, Principal Wang immediately went up to greet him, performing standard etiquette and introducing himself.
"You two are elders, no need to be so polite. I'm sorry to bother you so late at night."
The man's voice was magnetic and elegant. He looked at Wang Guangnian and Ouyang Lu standing across from him, motioning for them to stand. Then, his phoenix eyes swept across the people on both sides of the doorway and he said, "Everyone, please stand."
Having just come down from the battlefield, Huo Qi's eyes still held some lingering hostility. A light glance from him made the people on both sides feel oppressed.
Everyone stood up obediently and was as quiet as a chicken.
"Your Highness has taken the time to personally visit our school to provide guidance despite your busy schedule. It is an honor for all of us here, so how can this be considered an interruption? It's truly our fault for not providing such a good reception. Only a small group of people came to greet Your Highness. It's truly rude."
After all, Principal Wang Guangnian has lived to such an old age and is also a well-known figure in the interstellar world. Although he feels that the young and handsome man in front of him, who is of noble birth, gives people a strong sense of oppression, it is not a big problem for him.
While answering politely, he looked at Huo Qi with some respect.
Principal Wang took a good look at him and came to a conclusion: The Second Prince is indeed worthy of being the son of His Majesty the Emperor and a descendant of the Rex family. His demeanor and elegance are incomparable to ordinary people.
However, he had heard that the Second Prince had conducted an experiment on genetic collapse disease a few years ago and his health had "improved".
Looking at his face today, he doesn't look like a dying man at all, does he?
The people on both sides: It seems that although Principal Wang is about to retreat, he is actually still very powerful.
Wang Guangnian didn't know it at the time, but a few words with Huo Qi had saved him from the bad impression he had left on the school's top management due to his "enrollment mistake." His prestige as the school's president had been greatly restored.
…
After Huo Qi and Wang Guangnian exchanged pleasantries, Ouyang Lu, who was standing nearby, said, "Your Highness, it's getting late. The rest area for you is ready. Would you like to go and rest now?"
"Alright, thank you very much, Senior. Just send someone to lead the way. It's getting late, so there's no need to bother you two."
"yes."
…
"His Highness has left. Thank you all for your hard work today. Let's go home and rest."
The school gate was deserted, with only Wang Guangnian and Ouyang Lu left.
After everyone left, the two of them started chatting as they walked towards the principal's lounge area.
"Old Wang, have you figured out anything?" Ouyang Lu spoke first.
"No, you old fox have been listening right in front of me, and you couldn't hear it, let alone me." Principal Wang replied, yawning, and then continued:
"Hey, Ouyang, stop imagining things. Maybe the Second Prince really just chose our school on a whim to have some fun and experience college life."
Ouyang Lu glared at Wang Guangnian and said, "What nonsense! Our Second Prince is not as polite as he appears to be. In his early years, when he was just starting out, his brilliance was unmatched. Even after he suffered from genetic collapse syndrome, he still ruled the Xing Territory for several years. He enforced strict laws and no one dared to cross him. You are not unaware of this..."
"Alas~ It's a blessing, not a curse. If it is a curse, it can't be avoided. This person has already come, what can we do? Speaking of which, Ouyang, don't you feel that I have been particularly unlucky recently? These things have happened one after another, and it's not over yet~ Why did I choose such a person..."
After being glared at by his old friend, Principal Wang lost his sleepiness. Then, thinking about what had happened recently, he couldn't help but sigh at his bad luck during this period.
"Stop, stop. Look at the time now. I have to go to bed with my old bones. Take your time to think about it. I'm leaving~"
Hearing that Principal Wang was about to start another long speech about the complaints he had to say several times a day, Ouyang Lu spoke out in time to stop him, and then walked out dozens of meters away in a flash. His vigorous steps did not seem like those of an old man at all.
