286: Her name is so nice.

“Did you hear what I said?” his colleague reached out and nudged Mu Qingzhou.

“Huh?” Mu Qingzhou suddenly snapped back to reality, scratching his head apologetically: “I’m sorry, I was thinking about something else just now and didn’t hear anything…”

His colleague helplessly repeated himself.

Mu Qingzhou: “I’m giving Jiang Xiaoshi full marks.”

“He didn’t meddle, he wasn’t angry about getting his clothes dirty, and instead calmly gave advice and refused, which shows he’s not the type to cause trouble.”

“This child has a good personality, mature and steady.”

His colleague nodded, agreeing with Teacher Mu: “Then it depends on Jiang Xiaoshi’s performance in the final interview.”

“The Base Leader greeted Yucai Academy yesterday, so as long as he doesn’t perform too badly, he’ll be able to stay.”

At this moment, on the second floor.

Jiang Fei, Jiang Zhengkang, and Jiang Xiaoshi arrived at room 201.

The door was open, and the room was empty.

The table was filled with food like candy, chocolate, cake, drinks, and fried chicken.

Thinking they had gone to the wrong place, Jiang Zhengkang specifically checked the room number on the door: “Strange, didn’t they say they start work at 9 AM? Why is there no one here?”

“Let’s wait,” Jiang Fei sat on a chair in the hallway.

Jiang Zhengkang pulled Jiang Xiaoshi and sat next to her.

None of the three were interested in the food inside.

Not to mention they often ate such things in Ping’an, they also wouldn’t take other people’s things without permission.

More than ten minutes later.

Mu Qingzhou and his colleague walked over.

Noticing the work badges on their chests, Jiang Zhengkang quickly stood up:

“Hello, we are Jiang Xiaoshi’s family, here to bring him for his interview.”

“Please come in with me,” Mu Qingzhou led them into the room.

Noticing that the food on the table hadn’t been touched, Mu Qingzhou and his colleague exchanged glances.

They were both very satisfied with Jiang Xiaoshi’s performance.

“Congratulations, you’ve passed the interview.”

“I am Teacher Mu Qingzhou from Yucai Academy, and I welcome your addition.”

Mu Qingzhou leaned down and gently patted Jiang Xiaoshi’s head.

Jiang Zhengkang was stunned: “We didn’t do anything, and the interview is over?”

His colleague: “The girl you met upstairs, Yingying, and the food placed in the room, were all part of the interview we arranged.”

“Yucai Academy primarily considers a student’s character and conduct.”

“If you had lost your temper with Yingying just now, or couldn’t resist the temptation and secretly ate the food, you wouldn’t have been qualified to stay.”

At this point, his colleague took out two forms from a drawer and handed them to Jiang Fei and Jiang Zhengkang:

“Please fill out this information. That way, if anything happens to Jiang Xiaoshi, we can reach you.”

Jiang Fei and Jiang Zhengkang picked up the pens on the table and started filling out the forms.

It included things like name, address, and relationship to Jiang Xiaoshi.

After finishing, they gave the forms to his colleague.

Mu Qingzhou, standing nearby, secretly glanced at Jiang Fei’s form.

Jiang Fei… her name sounds so nice.

Mu Qingzhou couldn’t help but blush, but he didn’t forget his work and said:

“To study at Yucai Academy, a deposit of 100 jin of flour and 100 bags of instant noodles is required.”

“If Jiang Xiaoshi gets into fights, damages the books he uses, or violates regulations, Yucai Academy will withhold this deposit and expel him.”

“If he consistently abides by the rules and performs well, the deposit will be returned to you in full on the day of his graduation.”

Jiang Zhengkang nervously clutched the hem of his clothes.

He didn’t have that many supplies… Jiang Fei: “Can we bring the deposit with us tomorrow when we bring Xiao Shi to school?”

“Yes,” Mu Qingzhou readily agreed, and after telling his colleague to get back to work, he continued:

“I’ll give you a tour of Yucai Academy so you can see Xiao Shi’s future learning environment.”

Mu Qingzhou led the three of them, starting from Building C.

Yucai Academy’s five buildings were divided by subject, such as the Medical Building, Agricultural Building, and Architectural Building.

Classes were then assigned based on the level of education.

Besides the swimming pool, gymnasium, and sports field, there were also a library and a cafeteria, basically no different from schools before the apocalypse.

The difference was that they taught skills necessary for survival in the apocalypse.

Jiang Zhengkang: “Teacher Mu, does Xiao Shi choose what he wants to study?”

“Yes, but it also depends on what he has a talent for. When he enrolls tomorrow, I’ll give him a small test,” Mu Qingzhou glanced at the watch on his wrist:

“It’s almost noon. Since this is your first time here, let me treat you to a meal.”

“No need, Teacher Mu, we still have to go back to work,” Jiang Zhengkang politely declined Mu Qingzhou’s invitation.

“Alright then, please be careful on your way back.”

Mu Qingzhou handed a small booklet to Jiang Zhengkang: “It has Yucai Academy’s rules and school hours. Remember to read it when you get back.”

“Thank you, Teacher Mu.”

Jiang Zhengkang took the booklet and left with Jiang Xiaoshi and Jiang Fei.

Mu Qingzhou watched Jiang Fei’s retreating figure with reluctance, unconsciously covering his chest.

What to do? For the first time in his life, he was experiencing the feeling of love…

On the way back to the small Supermarket, Jiang Fei was still driving.

Jiang Zhengkang and Jiang Xiaoshi sat in the back seat.

Jiang Zhengkang flipped through the booklet and said, “Yucai Academy’s benefits are really good. Not only do they provide three meals a day for students for free, but school doesn’t end late either.”

“School starts at 9 AM every day, and they get out after dinner at 5 PM.”

“That Teacher Mu is also very nice, enthusiastic, meticulous, and young and handsome. The first time I saw him, I even thought he was a student at Yucai Academy.”

“By the way, Fei Fei, I’ll find a way to pay you back for the deposit you paid for Xiao Shi.”

Jiang Fei: “No need, consider it Xiao Shi’s wages for helping out at the Supermarket and mall before.”

“Xiao Shi, if anyone bullies you at Yucai Academy, you must come back and tell us. Don’t just endure the grievance without saying anything.”

“We will stand up for you.”

Jiang Xiaoshi obediently replied: “I remember, Big Sister.”

Upon arriving at the small Supermarket, Jiang Fei felt the cold air as soon as she got out of the car.

The temperature had dropped again.

The three quickly entered the Supermarket.

Su Liuyuan had already turned on the air conditioning and was complaining to Han Yang:

“It was 38℃ this morning, and now it’s 11℃. Such a drastic change, I think the heavens just want us to catch a cold and get sick.”

“I wonder if the temperature will rise again this afternoon…” Han Yang’s voice trailed off as he saw Jiang Fei and the other two return.

“Boss, did Xiao Shi pass the interview?”

“He passed, and he starts school tomorrow,” Jiang Fei looked around: “Not a single customer today?”

“The military store held an event, distributing contribution points and supplies to residents, so everyone went there,” Su Liuyuan shared gossip with Jiang Fei:

“The Base Leader clarified Kong Linlan’s evil deeds this morning and drove her out of the base, leaving her to fend for herself.”

“Her contribution card and the supplies at her home were also taken out to compensate the residents.”

“Every resident who bought something at the military store can get 20 contribution points and 1 jin of mixed grains.”

“Moreover, loudspeakers have been placed at the entrances of all military stores, broadcasting Kong Linlan’s crimes on a loop,”

“The event ends at noon the day after tomorrow, so I estimate they won’t be able to come back to the Supermarket to buy things until they’ve finished collecting their compensation,”

Jiang Fei: “Then let’s close early and go home to rest these two days.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than the Supermarket door was pushed open.
