“Thank you so much, Uncle Huang!”
Zhang Che was overjoyed. What worried him the most was his mother’s health.
Although the Unicorn had fully cured her illness, she was only an ordinary human, after all. Her lifespan was limited, unlike beastmasters, whose lifespans would increase as their beastmaster tier rose.
Not only that, beastmasters could also consume some spiritual herbs with very strong medicinal strength, which ordinary humans couldn’t withstand at all, further increasing their lifespan.
This was included in the information chip Huang Juyun gave him previously, leaving him lamenting endlessly. -This truly is a beastmaster’s world!-
Although it hadn’t been long since the dawn of the new age, which left the expected lifespan of a high-tier beastmaster unknown, it was obvious that his aging was slower than ordinary humans.
According to some related research, a person could extend their lifespan by at least fifty years if they attained the rank of a high-tier beastmaster before the age of fifty. The specifics were unknown, however, since there weren’t any actual examples.
He truly didn’t expect that the present he gave to the Huang family elders on his first visit would actually have such effects. If he’d known that earlier, he would have brought out all the red exotic fruits!
-Should I bring them tomorrow?
-Ugh, it seems a little awkward to do that.
-Forget it; I’ll think about it in the future.-
Soon, the attendant from earlier returned with quick steps, holding a container in hand and bringing it to Huang Juyun.
Huang Juyun took out a fist-sized green jade bottle from the container and offered it to Zhang Che, saying, “There are a total of thirty pills in the bottle. Get your mother to eat one every other day. There’ll be more benefits than just that.”
“Thank you, Uncle Huang!” Zhang Che thanked him once more sincerely, his face filled with gratitude.
“What’s there to thank? The main ingredient came from you,” Huang Juyun waved his hand. “Alright, alright, I don’t think you want to stay for dinner, either. Get going.”
Zhang Che smiled, embarrassed. He bade farewell to Huang Juyun and left the Huang family ancestral home. A military vehicle was already waiting for him outside, and drove him back to the villa.
——
Back at his place, Zhang Che handed the jade bottle to his mother and told her about the effects and the instructions to consuming the pills. Sun Lan was deeply moved. She said to Zhang Che, “Xiaoche, your Uncle Huang’s family has treated us so well; you mustn’t let that girl Tielan down in the future, or I will be the first to get you.”
Zhang Che didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He nodded repeatedly, “Don’t worry, mom. I know that.”
—
Zhang Che didn’t eat his lunch at home. With his current appetite, Sun Lan would collapse from fatigue before she could satisfy Zhang Che’s stomach.
He went out and bought a mountain of food to go. After finishing it all in a hurry, Zhang Che called Huang Tielan and told her he was going to look for her at Bei Du University.
Huang Tielan was surprised. Wasn’t he supposed to be in the beast world for a long time? Why did he return so soon?
While explaining things to her, he flagged down a taxi and headed to Bei Du University.
———-
The university was huge.
Really huge.
That was Zhang Che’s first impression of the school upon arriving at the school gates.
Despite having yet to step into the school grounds and take a proper look at the school, he could tell just from that endless steel fence that this was the best school in the entire Hua Xia region. The acreage of the university was simply too big.
“Tsk, tsk. If it wasn’t for that accident, I too, would be in this school now and be one of the many students here...” Zhang Che couldn’t help but lament when he thought about that. The wonders of a person’s life experiences were only limited by their imagination; anything could happen!
However, Zhang Che wasn’t fond of school life, after all. He had already gone through that in his past life; did he have to do it again in this life?
Although the educations of the two worlds were vastly different, a school was only a school, after all. It restricted his freedom to a large degree. As someone who liked to come and go as he pleased, he probably wouldn’t be able to endure it.
After lamenting for a while, Zhang Che headed in.
With his youthful appearance, the guard naturally assumed that he was a student here. He didn’t come up to Zhang Che to ask him questions at all.
“Crap, I forgot to ask where Miss Tienan is. This school is so huge; where do I find her?” Zhang Che’s face turned ugly. He couldn’t possibly wait at the entrance and have her come fetch him, could he?
As such, he decided to depend on himself and found someone to ask for directions.
At this moment, an incredibly familiar voice suddenly rang out at his side, “Hey, this student here, did you encounter some trouble?”
-Why would I bump into her here!?- Zhang Che turned around, astonished. He saw Chen Lishan in professional attire standing before him, looking at him with a doubtful gaze.
He hurriedly put on a smile and replied with a husky voice, “Nothing, nothing. I just wanted to ask where the beast card cultivation faculty is at...”
Before he finished his sentence, Zhang Che recalled it was noon right now. How could Huang Tielan be in the classrooms?
A hint of doubt flashed in Chen Lishan’s eyes. She kept feeling that this voice sounded somewhat familiar, but she was sure that this was the first time she had met this young man here. What a strange feeling...
However, she still showed a smile and asked, “Student, you’re looking for someone, huh?”
Zhang Che immediately nodded profusely, “Right, I’m here to look for...”
“Zhang Xiaoche!” a sweet voice suddenly rang out a short distance away. Zhang Che turned to look and saw Miss Tienan’s slender and elegant figure standing there, smiling.
“Ah, thank you, teacher. I found the person I’m looking for.” Zhang Che hurriedly nodded to Chen Lishan in gratitude. Afterwards, he walked over to Huang Tielan’s side quickly.
If they exchanged a few more words, he was afraid Chen Lishan would connect the dots.
It couldn’t be helped. When he met Chen Lishan and the others in the Bei Mei region, due to his excitement at finally leaving the beast world, he forgot to change his voice. Who would have thought he’d encounter such a situation today?
Seeing Zhang Che leaving, Chen Lishan creased her brow slightly, feeling that this young man was indeed a little strange, yet at the same time felt that she really had heard his voice somewhere before.
However, how long had it been since she came to Hua Xia? She had been looking for a job all this time, and finally gotten hired as a foreign teacher in Bei Du University. How could she have had any connections to such a young man before?
Shaking her head, she giggled self-mockingly and walked away gracefully, carrying a few books in hand.
As Zhang Che walked up to Huang Tielan, she swept her gaze across his face and said, “Hmm, you’re pretty daring! You just came to my school and actually started flirting with a female teacher. I didn’t know you were actually such a person, Zhang Xiaoche!”
Zhang Che was speechless. He could only put on a flattering smile and tried to explain himself, “I didn’t know where you were and casually found someone to ask for directions...”
“Hur hur...” Miss Tienan didn’t say a word, only smiling, looking at him.
“So you’re here, Huang Tielan!” a shout rang out from the side. Both of them turned their heads. They saw a tall, muscular man with a smile that was really asking for a beating, holding a bouquet of fresh, beautiful flowers, running over.
“Huang Tielan, I ordered this specially for you. It’s flowers picked from the beast world, delivered with haste. It’s for you; I hope your smile will be as bright as these flowers.”
As he spoke, Jiang Chao brought the flowers towards Huang Tielan. At the same time, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Che. He smiled, asking, “Is this your younger brother? Ah, like sister, like brother, indeed! You’re both really good looking! Brother, let’s introduce ourselves. I’m Jiang Chao. I’m from Qin Zhou. You can look for me if you have any trouble in the future. For my brothers, I will even take a knife for him!”
-Mhm, for my brother-in-law, I don’t mind even if I have to get stabbed all over my body!- Jiang Chao thought to himself.
Zhang Che nearly laughed out in anger. He narrowed his eyes, sizing up the tall and well-built Jiang Chao. He said in a frightening tone, “Hmm, you’re very daring, aren’t you? You actually dare try to steal my girl away right in front of me!”
