Chapter 615: Chapter 486: Going Home
Not long after, the office door was pushed open, and Wang Haiping returned.
“Junior Brother, sorry to keep you waiting. I just finished handling some matters over there.” Wang Haiping came over quickly with joy in his eyes. “I didn’t expect you, Junior Brother Su, to come to my place!”
Wang Haiping gave Xiao Yu a look, and Xiao Yu bowed to the two of them before excusing herself.
Su Yuan smiled and said, “There was only a flight to Qingye. Originally, I planned to go back myself after arriving in Qingye. I didn’t expect Senior Brother to be in Qingye.”
“Isn’t that thanks to you?” Wang Haiping laughed heartily and picked up the teapot to fill Su Yuan’s cup.
“Sky Patrol Star Lord, the first merit in the New Dust Realm. Even in a place like this, I’ve heard about you.
If it weren’t for you, a newly promoted Radiant Moon like me couldn’t have suppressed other Radiant Moon experts and secured the position of Deputy Director of Qingye Education Bureau in such a short time.”
Su Yuan took a sip of tea without saying much.
Although Wang Haiping had the status of being his senior brother, another important reason was that Wang Haiping himself had a keen eye for talent and discovered Su Yuan in Guangchuan City.
Discovering a top talent who rose from a Star Apprentice to a Sky Patrol Star Lord in three years was absolutely a top achievement within the Education Bureau.
Coupled with Wang Haiping’s own strength, it was not excessive to appoint him as Deputy Director of Qingye.
Su Yuan turned and asked, “Senior Brother Wang, what about the recent star beast riot?”
Wang Haiping frowned slightly at this topic.
“Although it has been handled, we haven’t found the root cause. The star beasts didn’t seem to be controlled, nor were there any signs of abnormal status.”
“Is that so…” Su Yuan’s eyes showed contemplation and a bit of worry.
Including Qingye City, this was already the nth dangerous star beast riot incident in the country.
Next to his home in Guangchuan City, there was also a dangerous zone, the Great Barbarian Mountain Area…
Wang Haiping added, “But according to the captain of the Qingye City Guard, an envoy from Xuanwu Imperial of the Sky Patrol Department will come from Shuzhou to investigate Bai Miaolin.”
Su Yuan nodded, “That shows enough importance. With an envoy personally going, they should be able to find something.”
After exchanging experiences and cultivation insights with each other, Wang Haiping asked, “Junior Brother Su, are you going to visit our teacher this time coming back from the Capitol City?”
“Yes, I may have to go far soon. Before that, I will first pay a visit to our teacher.”
Wang Haiping nodded, hesitating to speak.
Su Yuan said, “You seem to have something to say, Senior Brother?”
Wang Haiping smiled, “Indeed, there are some matters concerning our teacher. I dare not speak out of turn, but with your current achievements, I think the teacher will tell you personally next time you visit.”
“Matters concerning our teacher…”
Images of that casual old man floated in Su Yuan’s mind.
The teacher had mentioned entrusting him with something in the future. Not long ago, Fang Yu also showed great respect for the teacher.
Considering all these signs, the teacher was likely not just an ordinary Burning Sun…
But what exactly, he could ask when meeting the teacher.
Besides, the matter that the teacher mentioned entrusting him with could also be discussed briefly.
After all, with his current strength, at least within the Shining Star level, he feared no opponent.
And Radiant Moon level… he could take on a challenge!
Su Yuan said to Wang Haiping, “Since you’re in Qingye, I ask Senior Brother to take care of my family.”
From Qingye to Guangchuan, a Radiant Moon level expert could reach it in less than half an hour if they went all out.
Su Yuan had long wanted to bring his parents to the Demon Capital or Capitol City, but they had lived in Guangchuan all their lives and didn’t want to leave.
Wang Haiping laughed heartily, “Of course, I’ll keep an eye on Guangchuan City for you. If anything happens to your family, I’ll personally rush over.”
Su Yuan said solemnly, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Wang Haiping said, “You don’t need to worry too much. Shuzhou is deep within the Great Flame, usually, nothing happens.
Moreover, the Sky Patrol Department puts the families of their members on the City Guard’s special protection list. As a Star Lord, there are probably Xuanwu Imperial experts secretly protecting your family as well.”
Su Yuan did not say much. He trusted the Radiant Moon level Wang Haiping more than the City Guard.
Especially with his impending journey to seek Divine Wind, having Wang Haiping help look after his family put him at ease.
Su Yuan stood up, silver light flowing in his hands as he opened a Space Gate.
Wang Haiping, seeing a Space Gate skill for the first time, couldn’t help but take a closer look.
Having stayed in small places like Guangchuan and Qingye for so long had narrowed his vision…
“If that’s the case, I’ll take my leave now. Goodbye, Senior Brother.”
Wang Haiping responded, “Good, see you later.”
Su Yuan nodded, stepped into the Space Gate, and vanished.
Moments later, the Space Gate dissipated, leaving only some scattered spatial ripples…
Guangchuan City, a primary school, the principal’s office.
“Principal, I need to request three days off.” Tang Shiyang walked into the office.
“Director Tang? Please sit, sit, sit.” The principal stood up and personally poured a cup of tea for Tang Shiyang. “Three days off? No problem.”
“Great, thank you, Principal!”
“You’re welcome,” the principal smiled, then asked after a brief pause, “Director Tang, you usually don’t take time off. Why are you suddenly asking for so many days?”
Tang Shiyang smiled, “My child hasn’t been home for over a year. He’s coming back soon.”
Child?
The principal suddenly remembered something and slapped the desk, “I see! Director Tang, feel free to take any time you need. I’ll have other teachers cover your classes!”
“Don’t worry, Principal, I’ll only need three days.”
“Yes, yes, as you wish… Go ahead.”
“Alright…”
After Tang Shiyang left, the principal immediately took out his phone.
“Director Tan, the person you mentioned before seems to be coming back… Yes, I’ve already approved Director Tang’s leave.
I have not been neglectful, I assure you. Not a bit… Rest assured!”
The principal hung up and breathed a long sigh of relief.
“Is Director Tan Lun, who replaced Wang Haiping, being overly cautious?” The principal was perplexed.
Tan Lun, a Shining Star level expert and the current director of Guangchuan Education Bureau, seemed overly attentive, even if Director Tang’s child was a genius student at Demon Capital Academy.
Shaking his head, the principal decided not to think too much. After all, he was just a small school principal.
He would simply follow the directives from above. Anyway, the school had received several times more resources from the Education Bureau in the past few years…
Tang Shiyang left the principal’s office, feeling increasingly perplexed. She found the school’s staff to be more attentive, especially in recent days.
“Although Little Yuan is a genius special recruit at Demon Capital Academy, that was two or three years ago…” Tang Shiyang was confused but soon put it aside.
Not only was her son coming home, but he was also bringing Bing Tong, which made Tang Shiyang very happy. She immediately took a taxi home.
…
When Tang Shiyang got home, Su Yang was already bustling in the kitchen.
“Oh, honey, you’re home!” Su Yang wiped his hands on his apron and came out of the kitchen.
“Yes.” Tang Shiyang put down her bag and walked over to inspect. “How many dishes have you made?”
“Twelve.”
“Twelve?” Tang Shiyang frowned at him.
Su Yang scratched his head and smiled, “Haha, is it too much?”
“Too much?” Tang Shiyang rolled her eyes at him and snorted, “I’ve given you the whole afternoon, and you’ve only made twelve dishes!”
Su Yang: “???”
Tang Shiyang said, “Didn’t you hear Little Yuan? He’s bringing Xiao Tong home! Last time, she didn’t eat well. We can’t let her go hungry again this time!”
At this point, Tang Shiyang smiled, “Xiao Tong is so well-behaved. It’s her second visit; we can’t let Little Yuan down!”
Su Yang nodded quickly, “Ah, yes! Good, good, good, honey, you’re right. I’ll make a few more dishes.”
Tang Shiyang put on an apron, “Move aside, you’re too slow. I’ll do it myself.”
Su Yang shook his head and laughed, “Alright, I’ll be your assistant then!”
“Yes, that’s more like it~”
…
“Ding Dong~”
Not long after, as Tang Shiyang was slicing tomatoes, the doorbell rang.
Tang Shiyang and Su Yang hurried to open the door, and Su Yuan stood outside.
Su Yang laughed heartily, “Son, you’re back!”
Su Yuan smiled, “Dad, Mom!”
Tang Shiyang immediately peeked her head out, looking around, “Where’s Xiao Tong?”
Su Yuan rubbed his temples. Not caring about her son, she was more concerned about Luo Bingtong?
And last time it was “Bingtong,” now it’s just “Xiao Tong”?
Although nothing was official yet, her background was intimidating!
Shaking his head, Su Yuan stepped aside to reveal Luo Bingtong.
Tang Shiyang’s eyes lit up as she looked at Luo Bingtong. Despite her eyebrows and eyelashes turning snow-white and her eyes changing, she appeared even more well-behaved and beautiful than before.
Having seen Star Card Masters before, Tang Shiyang wasn’t too surprised by these small changes.
Luo Bingtong opened her mouth slightly and said in a low voice, “Auntie.”
Tang Shiyang was surprised and then smiled brightly.
“Xiao Tong can talk now? Come in, come in!”
Watching Tang Shiyang leading Luo Bingtong inside, Su Yuan couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Fortunately, Su Yang was there, patting Su Yuan’s firm shoulder and grinning, “Son, come in! I made a lot of good food for you!”
“Alright!”
…
Tang Shiyang switched to a smaller bowl for Luo Bingtong. Each mouthful of “Xiao Tong,” as she picked dishes for her, showed how much she liked her.
Luo Bingtong, not knowing how to reject, obediently ate everything Tang Shiyang offered…
This meal was full of joy and laughter, lasting until nearly ten o’clock at night.
At night, Luo Bingtong stayed in the bedroom, while Su Yuan slept in the study.
“Creak…”
Lying in bed, Su Yuan pondered his upcoming journey to the Southern Continent when the door gently opened.
Accompanied by a faint cool breeze, something seemed to quietly come in…
Su Yuan’s heart skipped a beat. Even without All-Knowing Vision, he had a general idea of what was happening.
Luo Bingtong walked barefoot to Su Yuan’s bedside and quietly lay down.
With Star Power covering her body, her feet didn’t get dirty even without shoes.
Of course, that wasn’t the point. The point was…
Why was this girl here!
Feeling the faint, refreshing fragrance from behind, Su Yuan’s heart slightly wavered, various thoughts coursing through his mind.
But soon, Su Yuan heard the even, shallow breaths from his ear.
“Already asleep?”
The All-Knowing Vision expanded. Indeed, Luo Bingtong was curled up and asleep, and it seemed she was sleeping peacefully…
“This girl can really sleep.” Su Yuan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
At Su Yuan’s level, not sleeping for a week wouldn’t be a problem.
The reason he slept was to adapt and re-experience ordinary family life.
Although it was inconvenient to move and risk waking Luo Bingtong, with All-Knowing Vision, Su Yuan didn’t need to turn his head to see her.
Snow-white hair, crystalline long eyelashes, a delicate face without any flaws, like a piece of art…
At present, of all the people Su Yuan had seen, the Kong Demon King’s and Luo Bingtong’s appearances were the most outstanding.
After carefully observing Luo Bingtong for a while, Su Yuan shook his head, suppressing his thoughts, closed his eyes, and went to sleep…
