Chapter 20: I Am a Student of Imperial Star University
The end of the Journalism Department’s military training meant that the Supreme Leader would also leave. Ye Zhile lived on campus and could only go back on weekends. He stood on the dormitory balcony like this, watching the army vehicles escorting the Supreme Leader away in a mighty procession.
“Reluctant to part?”
Ye Zhile was dazing out when Leng Xingtu’s voice suddenly rang in his ear. He turned his head. Leng Xingtu raised his chin. “If you’re reluctant, just tell him.”
Ye Zhile smiled and shook his head. “He is very busy.”
“Busy? Busy doesn’t mean not having time to make a phone call or have a video chat.” Leng Xingtu said.
“Actually…” Ye Zhile hesitated to speak. Actually, he spent very little time with Ji Shuohan. Previously at the Leader’s Manor, the Leader came home very late, and he was already asleep. At school, they only met during military training.
So… they weren’t familiar enough to willfully make phone calls or video chats.
Ye Zhile sighed. “Forget it, let’s go to class first.”
Leng Xingtu couldn’t make heads or tails of it. Seeing Ye Zhile didn’t want to say more, he didn’t ask more.
There was only one class this afternoon. Ye Zhile and Leng Xingtu arrived late and could only sit in the front row. After the two sat down, a few more people came one after another and sat next to them.
This class was foreign language translation. The teacher was a female Alpha over fifty. She looked very serious, her falcon-like eyes accurately capturing everyone’s class state.
Ye Zhile listened exceptionally seriously, taking notes while listening. Leng Xingtu heard him pronouncing very standardly and was surprised. “Have you learned the language of the Federation Planet before?”
Ye Zhile leaned over. “I learned it from my Dad. He is a translator, and I heard it a lot since childhood.”
Leng Xingtu looked at him with surprise. “Your Dad is really amazing.”
Ye Zhile gave a hehe laugh.
After class, the two went to the cafeteria to pack dinner. The curry rice in the school’s No. 1 cafeteria was good; Ye Zhile liked it quite a bit.
Back in the dorm, after eating and showering, Ye Zhile burrowed into the quilt. He held his phone, hesitating.
Should I call the Leader or not?
But what if he is busy? Will I be insensible doing this?
But I really miss him. Does the Leader not miss me at all?
Ye Zhile struggled, curling into a ball in the quilt. Finally, he sent a message.
Ye Zhile: [Is the Leader busy?]
No reply…
The Leader was really busy.
Ye Zhile threw the phone aside in despair, climbed up, picked up his professional books, and started studying.
Only studying can numb myself!
The Omega dormitory building was very quiet, and Ye Zhile quickly immersed himself in it. Until 10 p.m., Cheng Tingyan and Xie Ning came back.
“Tch~ quite good at pretending.” Cheng Tingyan glanced at him. He thought he would see Ye Zhile unable to argue back and helpless against him. Unexpectedly, that person ignored him directly. Cheng Tingyan gave a cold hmph and took his pajamas into the bathroom.
When Ye Zhile closed the book, he realized everyone was back.
Class all morning. After class, Lu Xingyan came to find Ye Zhile. The tall and handsome Alpha was very conspicuous. Many Omegas cast their gazes at Lu Xingyan, whispering as they passed him, unable to help looking back frequently.
“Lele.” Lu Xingyan waved to Ye Zhile, who was packing things. Ye Zhile packed his things and said to Leng Xingtu, “Xingtu, I have something to do today so I won’t go back to the dorm with you.”
“Okay.” Leng Xingtu agreed readily.
Originally, there were a few Omegas hesitating to come forward to ask for the Alpha’s contact information. Seeing the Omega who had gained the likes of countless Alphas right at the start of school heading straight for him, they gave up instantly.
Sure enough, handsome As belong to beautiful Os.
“Heh, abandoning your friend for an Alpha, usually pretending to be so noble.” Cheng Tingyan’s incredibly sour voice sounded beside Leng Xingtu.
Leng Xingtu put on his schoolbag and passed directly by Cheng Tingyan. “Get lost, don’t block the way.”
Cheng Tingyan dared not speak out in anger, so he could only hold his schoolbag and scurry aside dejectedly.
Lin Yang didn’t get into Imperial Star University and instead applied for the slightly inferior Yuncheng University. The two went by bus. Yuncheng University was preparing for the freshman ceremony, bustling with noise and excitement. Upon entering, students in strange costumes could be seen.
Everyone was rushing to the Grand Auditorium. Ye Zhile and Lu Xingyan weren’t in a hurry. The two toured the school first, then contacted Lin Yang.
Lin Yang told them to go directly to the Grand Auditorium and then took them backstage.
Lin Yang had a piano performance tonight. He wore a tailcoat and light makeup, ethereal and lively. Ye Zhile exclaimed, “Yang-Yang, your makeup looks so good! Eyelashes so curled! Eyeshadow sparkling! Lips pink too!”
“Thank you.” Lin Yang smiled reluctantly. He looked at Lu Xingyan behind him. “Brother Xingyan, do I look good today?”
“Mn.” Lu Xingyan grabbed Ye Zhile. “You’re almost sticking to his face!”
“He looks good.” Ye Zhile broke free from his hand holding his schoolbag. “Yang-Yang, what number is your program?”
“Number fifteen, right in the middle,” Lin Yang said.
Ye Zhile nodded. Lin Yang asked them to find a seat. Students passing by who were about to perform cast gazes at the two, thinking they were also going to perform later, and even asked what they were performing.
Ye Zhile shook his head. “We aren’t; we came to watch a friend perform.”
“Yo~ isn’t this Lin Yang’s high school friend?” The person speaking was the Omega who had greeted them with Lin Yang that day, named Xu Zicheng. He looked at Ye Zhile with disdain. “Is our Yuncheng University very big? The auditorium is so large and magnificent; you probably haven’t seen anything like it, right?”
“No.” Ye Zhile retorted seriously. “Imperial Star University’s auditorium is also very luxurious, and there are three of them.”
Xu Zicheng’s face stiffened. “That’s someone else’s school; how would you know?”
Ye Zhile smiled very friendly. “Because I am a student of Imperial Star University.”
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people laughed out loud in unison, looking at Xu Zicheng as if looking at a clown. If not for knowing Ye Zhile’s personality, even Lu Xingyan would suspect he was deliberately choking the Omega in front of him.
Xu Zicheng was embarrassed to death and could only drag Lin Yang out. “Yang-Yang, didn’t you say they were your high school friends? How come your two friends got into Imperial Star University and you didn’t say?”
“Both your friends got into Imperial Star University; how come you didn’t?”
Originally, everyone was curious about what Lu Xingyan and Ye Zhile were doing sitting here. After all, these two were good-looking. If they were performing on stage, it would be a feast for the eyes. As a result of listening, they heard some unusual gossip.
Lin Yang cursed Xu Zicheng fiercely in his heart. Truly mentioning the pot that doesn’t boil. Originally, not getting into Imperial Star University made him lag behind Ye Zhile. Not only was his family disappointed in him, but it even gave Brother Xingyan a chance to be alone with him. This guy was rubbing salt in his wound!
Lin Yang smiled on the surface. “Brother Xingyan and Lele have good grades.”
“Oh.” Xu Zicheng watched the fun, not minding it getting big.
