Chapter 492 As Expected, the Inner Courtyard Is Not Suitable

Chapter 492 As Expected, the Inner Courtyard Is Not Suitable

"I have way too many! You just haven't observed carefully!" Ye Nanxiao chuckled and said proudly, hands on his hips.

He's a new generation of all-around genius, capable in both formal and domestic settings, and even warms the bed at night—these are just some of his minor strengths.

Qian Duoduo looked at Ye Nanxiao, whose nose was practically pointing to the sky, and couldn't help but complain, "Alright, alright, that's enough. You're already narcissistic enough. Tone it down, don't let outsiders hear, or I won't be able to keep your secret of being a simpleton!"

"Get lost!" Ye Nanxiao walked to Qian Duoduo's desk and took out a pot of tea from the third cubicle.

"Please have a seat! Let me make some tea, it'll be ready soon!" Ye Nanxiao skillfully washed the tea set, not at all treating this as Qian Duoduo's office.

Qian Duoduo, however, didn't seem to mind at all. Sitting in her office chair, she turned to Ye Nanxiao and asked, "Is Yuhao really looking for a girlfriend? Don't force him. Yuhao is the future dean of the Soul Guidance Department! He can't let useless romance hinder his path to the top!"

"unless!"

Ye Nanxiao paused in pouring tea, then looked up at Qian Duoduo.

"Unless you're willing to take over Yuhao's responsibilities and give him time to find a girlfriend! See, then your wish will be fulfilled, right? Right?!" Qian Duoduo said slyly.

Ye Nanxiao placed the teacup in front of Qian Duoduo with annoyance. Was this guy just rambling on and on to trick him?

"No way! Whoever wants to do it can do it!"

"I've already become a guest lecturer with you, aren't you satisfied?"

"Will you let me go if I don't squeeze you dry?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Nanxiao instantly rolled backward, jumped up, and landed accurately by the window, showing a tendency to jump out the window and run away immediately.

Qian Duoduo chuckled and rubbed her hands together, saying, "I misspoke, I misspoke! You're a treasure of the Soul Guidance Department! How could I possibly exploit you! I'm not like Yan Shaozhe!"

"But Nanxiao, look, now that you know you're a guest lecturer, shouldn't you go and teach a few classes?"

Ye Nanxiao blinked, his smile bright. "Do you know what a PE teacher, someone you only hear about, is like? Especially the kind who's weak, sickly, and prone to catching colds!"

Money Galore.

He had heard Ye Nanxiao tell him this story about how physical education teachers are prone to getting sick.

"You little brat! Tell me! What will it take for you to attend two classes?" Qian Duoduo knew that this kid wouldn't start working unless he saw something in return.

Ye Nanxiao's special lecturer position has been used up, and his name has been written on Shrek Academy's teacher list. He is a registered special lecturer in the Soul Guidance Department and is under Qian Duoduo's management.

It's not that Qian Duoduo can manipulate Ye Nanxiao at will because of his position, but rather that Ye Nanxiao's absences or insufficient class attendance are a headache for Qian Duoduo, since he is the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department.

Although Ye Nanxiao had some minor mishaps during his exchange and study in the Sun Moon Empire due to Xu Tianran, which delayed his return, the originally scheduled courses were left without instructors.

Shrek Academy's courses are sometimes flexibly arranged according to the instructor's schedule, but Ye Nanxiao's popularity is undeniable.

In the Soul Guidance Department these days, if you ask who Ye Nanxiao is, even the sanitation workers could probably tell you a few stories about his glorious deeds, especially the show that all the Soul Guidance Department students love to put on: Dean Qian is running away again today.

Ah!

Yes, that's right. Ye Nanxiao and Qian Duoduo's pursuit activities are already commonplace in the Soul Guidance Department, and are even quite popular. However, the two involved parties are completely unaware of it.

Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's conditions, Ye Nanxiao immediately perked up and poured fresh, piping hot tea. Ye Nanxiao hadn't forgotten that his personal savings had been severely depleted.

And here comes the big investor!

Seeing Ye Nanxiao's eager manner, Qian Duoduo's lips twitched slightly, and she quickly said, "Stop! I'm a little short on cash lately! So I can't give you any support for the time being!"

Ye Nanxiao moved closer to Qian Duoduo, put his arm around her shoulder, and said with a grin, "Hey! Dean Qian! You're wrong about that. My research was given to me by you because you appreciated my talent! And now, I'm submitting my research results to the academy! What kind of behavior is that?"

"What else could you be doing, smiling like a shrewd businessman?" Qian Duoduo rolled her eyes.

"Here's a hint: I'm your special lecturer! A staff member of the academy!" Ye Nanxiao said with a smile.

Qian Duoduo suddenly understood what Ye Nanxiao meant.

He is on Shrek Academy's faculty list, a public official, and a special lecturer in the Soul Guidance Department, meaning he has access to resources available through the academy.

He just said that he didn't send support to Ye Nanxiao for a short time, which is an acknowledgment of his appreciation for Ye Nanxiao and the resources he personally gifted to him.

Ye Nanxiao, that shrewd businessman, still hasn't claimed the academy's resources.

That unscrupulous businessman!!!

"You big swindler!!" Qian Duoduo slapped Ye Nanxiao's hand away in annoyance, glaring at him, preparing for a leadership-style criticism from the vice dean.

As the vice president, I despise cadres who can't withstand tests!

Ye Nanxiao had anticipated Qian Duoduo's reaction. He picked up his teacup and said, "Could it be that the vice dean admired my talent and, out of a desire to nurture it, privately gifted me a large amount of resources as encouragement?"

"Just tell me whether you appreciate it or not!"

Qian Duoduo's puffed-up chest deflated at a visible speed. When it came to verbal sparring, he couldn't out-argue Ye Nanxiao. This fox had indeed hit the nail on the head; otherwise, he wouldn't have approved so many resources for Ye Nanxiao's laboratory.

"You brat! Forget it, forget it. To be honest, even that scoundrel Yan Shaozhe can't argue with you. I have no chance if I don't fight back. You came back from the Sun Moon Empire. You should know that there's a resource blockade there, so the academy's resource supply might be reduced. There's nothing we can do about it." Qian Duoduo said helplessly, spreading his hands. He was worried too.

Although Shrek Academy possesses Shrek City, which is known as the number one city in the world, it is a neutral force. Apart from Shrek City, it does not have any mines in other empires that are explicitly owned by Shrek Academy. Its usual supply is entirely due to Shrek Academy's wealth and power.

But things are different now. The Sun and Moon Empire has begun to crack down on domestic rare metal merchants and has imposed a strong blockade on rare metals in the country, which has made the other three empires realize that something is wrong and that there is a conspiracy.

They have also tightened controls on rare metals in China.

"It's alright, it's alright, the academy won't let the teachers down! I will always believe in the academy!" Ye Nanxiao raised his left hand and placed it in front of his forehead.

Qian Duoduo took a sip of tea and suddenly realized, wait a minute! Wasn't Ye Nanxiao here to see Zhang Lexuan?

Didn't I already tell you where Zhang Lexuan is?

How did I end up approving a sum of resources for Ye Nanxiao?!

MDZZ!!

After Qian Duoduo drank the tea, Ye Nanxiao immediately got up to leave, giving Qian Duoduo no chance to back out.

That's why people say Ye Nanxiao is a big swindler.

The objectives of this trip have been exceeded!

Ye Nanxiao's current mood of joy can only be expressed by a picture of a cat making a villainous laugh.

Although Ye Nanxiao didn't like going to Shrek Academy's inner courtyard, he was so pleased with himself that he hummed a little tune, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the inner courtyard like an old man strolling through the streets.

Having learned from his previous experience of getting lost and making a fool of himself, Ye Nanxiao specifically asked Ma Xiaotao to draw a map of the inner courtyard to ensure that he wouldn't wander into any strange places or encounter any strange people.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Nanxiao arrived in front of a five-story teaching building and glanced down at the annotations on the map.

Using her memory, Ma Xiaotao wrote annotations on all the important locations in the inner courtyard.

The teaching building in front of us is marked as the area where the chief disciple assists in handling the internal affairs of Shrek Academy.

Ye Nanxiao stroked his chin. Isn't this the student council?

Zhang Lexuan is the senior student of the inner academy, and can indeed be considered the president of the student council.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Wow, that's incredibly extravagant! This entire building belongs to the student council." Ye Nanxiao felt that he had been too lenient with Qian Duoduo. With that kind of wealth, why should he be polite?

Putting away the map, Ye Nanxiao checked his own attire. He had heard from Ma Xiaotao that Zhang Lexuan was a very strict person at work.

Arriving at the door, Ye Nanxiao pressed the doorbell on the wall.

After waiting a short while, the door opened, and two beautiful and slender female students appeared in Ye Nanxiao's sight.

"Wow! What a handsome guy!" exclaimed a female student whose lively and individualistic style was accentuated by two weighted wristbands on her left wrist.

"Ming'er, don't scare your junior brother!" The female student on the right, exuding an air of intellectual older sister, reached out and tugged at the sleeve of the female student on the left.

"Greetings, senior sisters. My name is Ye Nanxiao. I'm here to see Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan." Ye Nanxiao took a step back and bowed.

"You're Ye Nanxiao?!" the female student on the left exclaimed in surprise, then put her hands on her hips and looked Ye Nanxiao up and down.

"Does Senior Sister know me?" Ye Nanxiao asked in confusion, as he had never met this Senior Sister before.

"Ming'er, let Junior Brother Ye in first, don't scare him! Junior Brother, come in first, my name is Han Ruoruo, an inner court student." Han Ruoruo pulled the female student on the left to make way for Ye Nanxiao to come in first.

Ye Nanxiao followed Han Ruoruo into the building and sat down in the living room on the first floor.

Han Ruoruo handed over a cup of tea, pulled her companion to sit opposite Ye Nanxiao, and said, "Senior Sister is still working, but it's almost time for her break. If you're not in a hurry, sit here for a while."

"Okay, I don't have anything urgent," Ye Nanxiao nodded and said.

"Her name is Wu Ming, an inner court disciple. We are Senior Sister's assistants," Han Ruoruo introduced her companions.

Wu Ming?

Ye Nanxiao's right eyelid suddenly twitched. The name Wu Ming seemed familiar to him.

His beloved wife, Ma Xiaotao, has a nickname in the inner courtyard: "One of the two active volcanoes in the inner courtyard."

The other "active volcano" is named Wu Ming, and this person is also a warmonger and a cultivation fanatic.

Incidentally, Wu Ming has an extremely fiery temper; she's a straightforward, tough woman with a built-in explosive aura.

Sure enough, after sizing up Ye Nanxiao, Wu Ming said, "You're the Ye Nanxiao who kidnapped Xiao Tao? You don't seem to have anything special about you. They say you can't judge a book by its cover, Junior Brother Ye! Come and have a match with your senior sister!"

A golden spark bloomed on Wu Ming's left hand.

Han Ruoruo seemed to share the same idea, but after symbolically saying a few words about Wu Ming, she looked at Ye Nanxiao with a smile.

She herself was also very interested in Ye Nanxiao.

Ma Xiaotao is their junior, and all of them have found their ideal husbands, who are also stunning beauties, which makes them very sad!

The two of them are four or five years older than Ma Xiaotao!

Looking at the spark in Wu Ming's hand, Ye Nanxiao sighed inwardly. Sure enough, one cannot wander around the inner courtyard at will. He had followed the map, so why did he still run into trouble?

Furthermore, Wu Ming's face clearly conveyed the message, "You are not allowed to refuse your senior sister."

Ye Nanxiao glanced at the stairwell and thought, "Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan! Why are those two so free?"

Do you take on all the work yourself?

Do you need any more subordinates?

No, how about you become my boss?

"Okay, okay." Ye Nanxiao swallowed hard and could only agree to Wu Ming's suggestion.

As expected, the inner courtyard was still a place one should not go to.

Trouble will always seem to find you.
