Chapter 457 Freshmen's Start of School



Seeing Liu Mei's appearance, Ye Gubai didn't say anything more and turned back to his bedroom to rest.

After taking a quick shower, Ye Gubai finished his business for the day.

The next morning, when Ye Gubai woke up, he saw Zi Yueru alone in the corridor.

Upon inquiry, it was learned that Zi Xinlan left in shame after waking up in the early morning.

Upon hearing this news, Ye Gubai couldn't help but smile.

He then shifted the topic to the renovation project in Storm Canyon.

I'd like to ask Ziyueru if she has any suitable candidates for the construction team.

But Zi Yue Ru told him that these things can't be rushed.

After all, this is a huge project worth over 10 billion, so it's necessary to strictly select construction companies.

The screening process will likely take at least two days; just wait patiently.

"By the way, what kind of building decoration do you need? Are there any examples you can refer to?" Zi Yue asked curiously.

She had forgotten about it before, but it's not too late to ask now.

Modern architectural styles include modern and ultramodern, as well as minimalist and ruin styles.

Each architectural style has different requirements; some teams are suited to modern styles, while others are suited to ruin styles.

Of course, there are also more expensive traditional Chinese styles.

"Let's go with the ancient style. I'm tired of modern ones like the new base," Ye Gubai said after a brief thought.

"Okay, but traditional-style buildings require a lot of wood, so they'll be more expensive."

"Another issue is that the construction team will need to conduct a site survey and provide detailed renovation drawings that you will need to review."

Zi Yueru explained the issues that needed attention later, emphasizing that large-scale projects are different from small issues like the new base.

Even with the help of modern professionals, it will still take some time to build.

However, no matter how much time it takes, it will only take a month or two.

“Okay, no problem.” Ye Gubai nodded.

After the conversation ended and he had a quick breakfast, Ye Gubai headed towards Tianlong Academy alone.

Today is the official start of the school year, and he is going to fulfill his promise to Shang Xianzhi.

He can take care of Shang Xianzhi's granddaughter himself.

So not only did he not bring the girls with him, he also left Silverwing Star at the new base for them to use as a means of transportation.

Riding the power of wind and thunder, Ye Gubai quickly arrived at the academy.

Upon arriving at the university, he witnessed the extraordinary sight of the shared bicycle boom of yesteryear.

Newly enrolled students and most students without bicycles rode shared bikes toward the large open-air stadium.

This scene remained fresh in Ye Gubai's memory, and he couldn't help but stop and look down at the adorable students at his feet.

Because the power of wind and thunder can produce sound, Ye Gubai's appearance also attracted the attention of the students below.

However, they had to arrive at the stadium on time, so no one stopped to look at Ye Gubai or take pictures.

"It seems that every generation has some students with powerful backgrounds..."

Ye Gubai looked at some of the students at his feet and muttered to himself.

Back then, he also obtained his mount from the Tower of Heaven.

Otherwise, they would have no choice but to follow the cycling wave into the sports stadium.

Unlike these 'powerful' students standing here, riding their mounts high above the forest.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, there are even more talented students emerging this year.

There are more than ten new students who have mounts to ride.

Unlike last year, when only a handful of people had it.

Of these dozen or so people, half were women.

Ye Gubai glanced around but couldn't recognize which one was Shang Xianzhi's granddaughter.

However, it didn't matter, as Shang Xianzhi had asked him to attend the opening ceremony as well.

So I went to the podium to stand there in a daze first, and then left with Shang Xianzhi.

Finally, after waiting for his granddaughter to arrive in his office, he took her to upgrade her skills.

That's the procedure, so there's no need to do anything extra.

After waiting for a moment, a flash of light appeared in the distance.

Shang Xianzhi appeared as before, riding his fire phoenix mount.

After Shang Xianzhi landed, Ye Gubai flew over to the podium and landed.

As soon as he landed, Ye Gubai was showered with praise and flattery by the leaders and teachers on the podium.

He didn't rush to come, waiting for Shang Xianzhi to arrive first, precisely to avoid this kind of thing happening.

Unfortunately, it seems that this problem cannot be avoided at present.

"Come sit here," Shang Xianzhi invited.

Hearing this, Ye Gubai breathed a sigh of relief and quickly slipped out of the circle of leaders and teachers.

He doesn't like the feeling of being flattered face-to-face, although he's fine with being flattered online.

Simply put, he has a bit of social anxiety and doesn't want to spend time cultivating the relationship.

It can be said that Ye Gubai is a passive type of person when it comes to relationships.

Just like Shen Miaomiao was able to rise to power because she was proactive enough.

As for Zi Yue Ru and Yu Mei Yu, even if they have feelings for Ye Gu Bai, they haven't taken that step, so Ye Gu Bai won't do anything to them.

Ye Gubai has his own principles; he won't touch someone unless they take the initiative...

Getting back to the main topic, after the university leaders were seated, the freshman speech began.

Ye Gubai had explicitly told Shang Xianzhi that he would not participate in the speech.

Shang Xianzhi was not surprised by this.

The fact that Ye Gubai even showed his face here is already a great honor for him.

Therefore, he did not follow any procedure of forcing Ye Gubai to speak.

When it was Shang Xianzhi's turn to speak this time, he spoke more than he did the previous year.

The extra words were basically about what happened in the previous year.

For example, winning the freshman competition, or outstanding students graduating early, etc...

Interestingly, all ten or eleven of these incidents are related to Ye Gubai.

However, Ye Gubai, who was standing to the side, did not notice because he was dozing off.

The leaders' presentations took a full hour.

This was something Ye Gubai hadn't expected, since such a long duration hadn't occurred in the previous year.

By the time Shang Xianzhi finished speaking, Ye Gubai had almost fallen asleep.

It was only after Shang Xianzhi patted him that he came to his senses.

Wiping away his drool, Ye Gubai asked in confusion, "Is it over?"

"..." Shang Xianzhi sighed helplessly: "Yes, we can leave now."

Upon hearing this, Ye Gubai immediately perked up.

"Walk!"

After uttering a single word, he immediately channeled the power of wind and thunder, leaping into the air amidst thunder and lightning.

Breathing in the air above and feeling the raging winds all around, Ye Gubai finally felt alive again.

Listening to the leaders spout nonsense on the podium is sure to make you doze off.

Listening to them talk is less appealing than staying home, lying under the covers, and sleeping.

At this moment, Ye Gubai was beginning to regret his decision. Why had he agreed to attend the opening ceremony with Shang Xianzhi...?
