"Ahem, talking behind the principal's back, you little brat, do you want to die?" The school staff member who had been listening intently couldn't help but remind him.
Weiss immediately put on a fawning smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, I won't mention the principal."
The staff member then turned around.
Weisuo then said to Zuan, "The fifth in the list of beauties is Wu Qing, the daughter of the Duke of Yangquan in the neighboring city. She is quite beautiful, but I heard that she has a bad temper."
"The sixth in the list of beauties is Xie Daoyun, the city lord's daughter, who is the older sister of Xie Xiu, whom you just saw at the school gate. Unlike her brother, she is a great talent, skilled in cultivation, and has a gentle and graceful personality. In my opinion, Wu Qing's ranking ahead of her is entirely due to her father's influence."
"The seventh place is Ji Xiaoxi. She seems to be the daughter of the legendary doctor Ji Dengtu. She is petite and adorable. She has just as many fans as Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman at school. She is a favorite of lolicon, but unfortunately, she is not my type."
Zu An's heart stirred upon hearing this. He hadn't expected that the little girl he met in the valley would also be studying at the school. What a coincidence! It seemed he should spend more time with her in the future, since his happiness for the rest of his life depended entirely on her father.
"The eighth place is Zheng Dan, the daughter of the Zheng family in the city. In the entire Bright Moon City, apart from the Chu family, the Zheng family is probably the richest. Whoever marries her can work hard for at least thirty years. Of course, it can't compare to someone like you who can work hard for fifty years less by marrying a daughter of the Chu family."
Zu An sighed inwardly. He truly knew the bitterness of being a son-in-law. Few people in the Chu family took him seriously. The idea that he would save fifty years of hard work was just an outsider's opinion.
Of course, a man can't lose face in public, so he naturally has to pretend to be flattered.
"However, there are rumors that the Zheng family is going to arrange a marriage with the newly appointed prefect, but I don't know if it's true." Wei Suo said with some resentment, "It's infuriating. There are already too many monks and not enough meat, and yet they are all already taken."
Zuan patted him on the shoulder with a smug look on his face: "Relax, there are still so many single people out there. I believe that with your abilities, you can still easily win them over."
“That’s right~” Wei Suo raised his head, but when he thought that his favorite was actually Principal Jiang, he immediately deflated and his words became weak. “The ninth place in the Beauty Record is Chu Huanzhao, the second young lady of the Chu family. It can be seen that she has been a beauty since she was a child, but she has not fully grown up yet. In addition, her usual behavior is like a tomboy, so she is ranked lower.”
"I forgot the name of the tenth person. That person seemed to have a special aura, making it hard to subconsciously remember her..."
"Those who make it into the top ten of the list of beauties are all extremely outstanding beauties. In my opinion, their looks are not that different. The ranking is mainly influenced by other factors combined."
Seeing how logical and insightful he was, Zu'an couldn't help but feel a sense of awe: "To have such insights, you really are an experienced person."
For once, Vesso became unusually modest: "Not at all, I'm just a theorist, not as practical as you who can personally experience the First Beauty... Hmm, why do I feel like crying as I say this?"
"Alright, alright, you two stop talking nonsense here. Weisso, go to your classroom yourself." The staff member pointed to a classroom not far ahead. The school was very big, and it had taken them quite a while to get there.
Then he beckoned to Zuan: "Come with me, the principal wants to see you."
Weisso immediately became anxious: "We're all freshmen, why won't the principal see me?"
The staff member rolled their eyes: "You got in through the regular exam, while they got in through connections. How can you expect them to be the same?"
Zuan was a little embarrassed. "Hey, hey, hey, is it okay to say these things in front of me? Don't I have any dignity?"
Hearing this reason, Weiss could only helplessly accept his fate. He took a few steps toward the classroom, then suddenly turned back and said, "Remember to take a good look at the principal, and tell me what kind of stockings she wore today!"
Zuan: "..."
The staff member, with a dark expression, made a move as if to strike. Seeing that things were not going well, Wei Suo quickly slipped into the classroom.
The staff member then looked at Zu An with an annoyance and warned, "Don't listen to that guy's nonsense. If you offend the principal, even Lord Mingyue can't protect you."
Zu An responded with an "oh," and at the same time became somewhat curious about this beautiful principal.
Following the staff, we arrived at a tall building next door. Unlike the teaching building, the stairs here were covered with red carpets with exquisite and valuable patterns.
"That's incredibly extravagant!" Zuan couldn't help but sigh at the stench of wealth and luxury. Indeed, no matter the world, the tallest and most magnificent building in a school is always the administration building.
The staff member warned, "The teachers' offices are all in this building. Although some people don't come here often, don't wander in like this in the future, or don't blame me if something happens."
Zu An said "oh" but was wondering where Shang Liuyu's office was. Then he thought, she probably wouldn't leave her personal belongings in the office.
After climbing the stairs to the top floor and passing through a long corridor, the staff member came to the room at the end and knocked on the door: "Headmaster, I have brought Zuan."
"Let him in." A formulaic voice came from behind the door, but even so, its unique and rhythmic tone was enough to set any man's imagination running wild.
