Appearing in reports from various domestic media outlets, even without showing his face, Wang Zhaoyang immediately became a popular figure in the school.
As soon as An Chen arrived at school, and still in his own class, he heard a commotion outside.
"What's going on?"
An Chen glanced at Sun He, who immediately came over and sat in Ye Xinning's seat next to An Chen, whispering:
"Someone saw the report with a secretly brought phone last night, and now everyone knows that Wang Zhaoyang subduing the villain is true. Now they're all gathered around Wang Zhaoyang!"
"Then why aren't you going?"
"I can't squeeze in, there are too many people at the entrance of Class Nine..."
Although there were many people gathered at the entrance of Class Nine before, it wasn't the limit.
At that time, many people still thought he was just bragging.
But now, everyone knows that Wang Zhaoyang bravely fighting the villain is true, so naturally, they all want to see.
This time, the Head Teacher of Class Nine, standing nearby, couldn't control them anymore.
Anyway, there was no morning self-study, so there was no place to scold them.
An Chen silently mourned for Wang Zhaoyang for a few seconds.
Just based on this "flourishing" appearance, Wang Zhaoyang's name would probably sweep through various small media and marketing accounts' reports in just a few days.
These students are all big mouths; they can tell anything to the outside.
While the big media and official media might not report or disclose Wang Zhaoyang's personal information, these people would be eager to reveal even the color of Wang Zhaoyang's underwear.
This was definitely not a good thing.
"I heard some people are even asking him for autographs, saying that when he becomes a star in the future, they can exchange them for lots and lots of money... Do you think we should go get one too?"
"Get your butt out of here!"
Sun He suddenly heard a voice behind him. He turned around and saw Ye Xinning staring intently at him with a stern face.
"My seat."
Sun He only then realized, apologized repeatedly, and then scurried away.
Ye Xinning sat down and glanced at An Chen.
"What, are you still thinking about Wang Zhaoyang's matter?"
"No, I'm just curious."
An Chen shook his head, denying it.
Just kidding, if anyone understood Wang Zhaoyang's situation best, it could only be him. Everyone else either heard it through rumors or relied on speculation.
"It's you, though, why are you a day student now?"
An Chen didn't want to continue this topic, so he quickly changed it.
"I don't want to live in the dorms anymore. I found a cheap place outside and rented it for two months to live in first."
"You have money now? Don't forget me when you get rich."
An Chen joked, but to his surprise, Ye Xinning actually thought carefully for a moment and then said:
"If you're short on money, I can give you some."
An Chen quickly waved his hand.
"I was just saying it casually."
It's not certain who has more money between them now.
"It seems the connection you mentioned before is good; you even have money for rent."
"Mm."
Ye Xinning seemed reluctant to talk too much about it, so she just hummed softly and said nothing more.
An Chen carefully sensed and found that Ye Xinning's spiritual power seemed to have thickened by a tiny bit, not much different from yesterday, but he could still detect the change.
An Chen was secretly surprised.
Under such a thin Spiritual Qi concentration on Earth, Ye Xinning was actually Cultivating?
An Chen even felt a bit inferior.
Ye Xinning had clearly learned An Chen's skill of sleeping with his head on the desk. Ye Xinning slept like that for the entire morning, while An Chen had slept very soundly last night and didn't sleep much in the morning.
Every teacher who came in to teach would look at the two top students at the same desk with puzzlement.
How did their roles get reversed?
An Chen understood why Ye Xinning was so tired; she probably stayed up late Cultivating last night, feeling mentally fatigued, so she naturally felt sleepy in the morning.
An Chen, on the other hand, had little to do at school.
In fact, he was almost always idle on Earth.
Compared to Earth, Kyushu felt more like his home, and he also hoped to spend more time in Kyushu to further improve his Realm.
You know, what kind of life did he lead in Kyushu, and what kind of life did he lead on Earth?
It was only recently that he was able to escape the life of eating instant noodles every meal.
An Chen still hadn't figured out how to buy and sell between the two worlds. Spirit Pills, Heaven And Earth Treasures from Kyushu were easy to sell, but what about goods from Earth... He couldn't really get rich by selling electric wheelchairs, could he?
Moreover, he learned that Kyushu had many things that existed here. Combining this with the information that a small number of people had Transmigrated before, it wasn't hard to deduce that someone had already brought these things to Kyushu.
For example, the tongshen jade talisman, which was identical to a cell phone.
This wave of profit was almost fully exploited.
Large machinery like excavators, however, hadn't been developed yet, but An Chen couldn't easily get them now.
As An Chen was thinking this, he heard the bell ring.
This was the last class of the morning.
Ye Xinning couldn't control her sleep time like An Chen, nor could she wake up on time. When she slept soundly, neither the bell nor the noise could wake her.
An Chen shook Ye Xinning's shoulder, then packed his bag and stood up.
"School's out."
Ye Xinning quickly woke up and looked up at An Chen.
"Don't leave yet."
"What's wrong?"
An Chen didn't have many things to pack, or rather, his backpack was just for decoration; he could just pick it up and leave.
"Are you free at noon?"
"I am..."
"Come to my house."
An Chen was surprised for a moment.
"To your house?"
"Mm, let's eat first, then check out my new rented place."
Ye Xinning forced a smile.
An Chen's way of thinking wasn't actually very open; in fact, some might even call it "feudal."
It wasn't good for a man and a woman to be in the same room...
"Don't worry, there are other people in the house; my grandfather is there too."
"Your grandfather?"
An Chen was a little puzzled.
Didn't Ye Xinning lose her parents when she was young and grow up in an orphanage? Where did a grandfather come from?
"Before... he was in the countryside. When my parents passed away, he couldn't come over. He just arrived in Nancheng recently and is living with me."
Ye Xinning was lying.
An Chen could see it.
This lie wasn't very clever, and her various small gestures while lying completely exposed the fact that she was lying.
As for where this grandfather came from... An Chen didn't know.
But An Chen didn't plan to refuse just like that.
"Okay."
"Really?"
Ye Xinning was delighted.
"Really." An Chen nodded, then added, "But I also need to bring someone. My uncle's daughter is staying with me these past few days, and I need to take her out for lunch."
