Chapter 4 Wait for Me to Come Back

  Yun Hai Fan just looked at Wen Zhan, not saying a word. The misty eyes showed obvious doubt and disdain, as if Wen Zhan's punishment was just child's play. Finally, she lightly opened her mouth: "Then do I still need to go to the Fire Department class as an auditor?"

  Her tone was so relaxed, as if it were a relief after a heavy labor.

  "This... is unnecessary!" Wen Zhan said with a scowl, "You can pack up now and go to the library!"

  "I understand."

  Yun Hai Fan lightly replied, forcefully lifting his head that had been hanging down, his calm and peaceful eyes looking at An Su, the gaze clearly conveying only one meaning -

  Wait for me to come back.

  Ansu felt an inexplicable chill, a feeling she hadn't had since acquiring the fire spirit's power. It was a natural opposition to heat that had nothing to do with temperature.

  Yun Hai Fan hastily stuffed everything into his backpack, grabbed it with one hand and disappeared out the back door of the classroom. The whole process was done in one swift motion.

  "Was she really number one in the Mortal Realm before?" Yin Xu asked Xiang Ke with some doubt, "This momentum is clearly that of an old hand at skipping class."

  "Is it trained here?" Xiang Ke also made a scientific analysis and reasonable inference, "You said An Su and she had a great feud to frame her?"

  "I don't know. But... " Yin Xuan glanced around at the whispering crowd, his voice pessimistic and helpless, "Maybe, only we two still believe in Fan Jie now."

  Yun Hai Fan's back was elegant, but the process of leaving wasn't smooth. After turning a corner, she ran into Lan Si Cheng. The narrow road that wasn't spacious to begin with became impassable with Lan Si Cheng standing in the middle. She muttered a low curse and raised her head to greet him: "Teacher."

  "What did you just say?" Lance hadn't even had time to wonder why she was leaving the classroom at this time when he heard a somewhat unclean voice brush past his ear.

  "I didn't say anything." Yun Hai Fan was furious but too lazy to bother explaining to Lan Si Cheng, "The wind was loud just now, you misheard."

  "Really?" Lances finally found a chance to ask the question he wanted to ask, "Where are you going?"

  "You'll know soon enough......" Yun Hai Fan glanced at his watch, "I'm going to be late, by the way, the class leader has something to do with you. Hmm, about me."

  After finishing speaking, she slipped away quietly and was gone.

  Lance watched her back getting farther and farther away, a faint smile playing on his lips. His clear eyes held a profound meaning, like the goose feathers that couldn't stir up the lotus flowers, but only the snowflakes rising from the surface of the river as it flowed eastward.

  At this time, Yun Hai Fan had arrived at the library. The librarian was a woman in her forties, who was said to have been a formidable magician in the past, but for some unknown reason had fallen to this position. Yun Hai Fan looked timidly at the librarian, who had one hand on her hip and the other holding a pair of thick, black-framed glasses, and spoke in a low voice: "Ge teacher, I..."

  Ge Hui glanced at the student sent by the exhibition department with disinterest: "Your teacher has already told me, go to the southwest corner and sort out the materials there, they're a bit old, don't mess them up."

  After finishing, she seemed too lazy to take another look at Yunhai Fan, and as soon as she turned around, she picked up her phone: "What? The new administrator can't arrive until this afternoon... You're taking advantage of me, originally there were only three people here, now two have left, and it's not easy to transfer one over, but you still want to drag it out until this afternoon... I don't care, if he doesn't arrive before lunch, you come over!"

  Yun Haifeng secretly licked his lips, and unexpectedly felt a bit of goodwill towards this somewhat unruly Ge Hui. He had thought there would be a long-winded lecture as a warning, but for whatever reason, whether it was disdain or something else, at least Yun Haifeng felt a little better in his heart.

  The southwest corner of the library was a narrow study room, with thick stacks of documents piled on the table, and yellowed paper that seemed to be fragile enough to break at the slightest touch. Next to the table stood a rickety chair that barely managed to stand upright, which Yun Hai discovered had only three legs. She couldn't help but laugh, and carefully sat down, balancing herself before finally sitting steadily.

  The thin yellow paper was filled with unfamiliar characters, only a few numbers could be barely recognized, and it was unclear whether they were correct or not. From the format, it seemed to be a major event record. However, why wasn't this important record well-preserved but instead scattered about like this? Yun Hai Fan had no way of knowing, he simply arranged them in order according to the page numbers marked at the bottom of each page. The page numbers looked new and bright, with different handwriting colors, as if they were written recently. Based on what he heard before, Yun Hai Fan guessed that it was Ge Hui who wrote this, after all, it wouldn't be possible for someone else to maintain consistent handwriting.

  Moreover, someone who can annotate page numbers must be familiar with these texts. Compared to other administrators who only have some auxiliary magic, Yun Hai Fan believes that Ge Hui has such qualifications.

  She was thinking, but her train of thought was interrupted by Ge Hui's stern voice: "You finally know you've arrived!"

  "Sorry, something came up and I was delayed." The other party had a gentle male voice, with an unhurried tone that calmed Ge Hui's anger.

  Ge Hui seemed dissatisfied: "The first day and you're already giving me trouble. If there was anyone else available, I would have..."

  Yun Hai Fan struggled to hold back his smile, and it was easy to imagine Ge Hui's eyebrows upside down with anger on her face. She actually wanted to see the new administrator who had a good temper.

  Listening to the voice, it should be a fair-skinned and slender figure with a tall and thin build.

  A careless moment and he heard a dull "thud" coming from behind him.

  Katy immediately ordered the newly arrived steward: "You go and see what's happened. There was a little girl sent over to work, probably another one who doesn't pay attention to anything."

  Listening to Ge Hui scolding herself, Yun Hai Fan's expressionless face bent down to pick up the scattered documents on the ground. The dust raised by the falling documents choked her and she couldn't speak. She coughed dryly, and tears welled up in her eyes, quickly moving away the documents, afraid that the tears would blur those ancient characters.

  A steady footsteps approached, Yun Hai Fan opened her blurry eyes to look at the person coming. The other party was as warm and gentle as she had guessed, making people think of the phrase "a stranger on the road is like a jade gentleman, unparalleled in the world". However, the man's face seemed to have touched a certain node in Yun Hai Fan's memory, causing her to involuntarily let out a cry of surprise and suddenly sit down on the ground.

  "Are you okay?" The man thought Yun Haifan was frightened, and he gallantly helped her up. Yun Haifan shook her head repeatedly, unable to say a word.

  The young man smiled lightly: "My name is Xiang Ziyi, and you?"

  "Cloud... Cloud Sea Sail." Yun Hai Fan stuttered out a somewhat complete phrase, and after his interrupted thoughts cleared up, he opened his mouth to ask, "Toward... Toward Teacher, do you know Xiang Ke?"

  "She is my sister." Xiang Ze Yin smiled warmly between her eyebrows and eyes, "I've heard her mention you before, you can call me Ze Yin."
