28: The verbal battle between six bosses

Ten minutes later, Ye Liuyun had cleared the dishes on the table, feeling about half full.

Zhao Hai, who was beside him, couldn't help but show a wry smile, seeing Ye Liuyun’s good appetite at such a time.

If it were anyone else, he wouldn’t be able to eat a single bite.

Wiping his mouth, Ye Liuyun stood up and thanked Zhao Hai and Wang Hong, the mother and daughter: “Thank you, Uncle Zhao, for your hospitality. I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now. I’ll come to your house for a meal when I’m free in the future.”

It had to be said, Wang Hong’s cooking was truly excellent; he loved it.

“Alright, come whenever you want in the future. You should go now.”

The three watched Ye Liuyun get into Ning Nanguo’s private car and leave, then exchanged glances.

“Dad, which school do you think Ye Liuyun will join in the end?”

After returning to her room, Zhao Yue couldn’t help but ask.

“How would I know? It depends on which school offers the best benefits. But I feel like it should be the Martial Artist Heavenly Martial University.

However, it’s not certain. With Chief Ning’s help and his talent, he’ll receive good benefits no matter which school he goes to.”

Wang Hong clicked her tongue, her tone full of awe, “Everyone else is begging to get into university, but universities are begging him to join.”

“Well, what do you expect? He’s the third in the nation, and the only S-rank Beast-type Genius. I must say, my judgment was spot on.”

“Huh, Dad, didn’t you previously judge him as an A?”

“Don’t talk nonsense! When did I ever make such a judgment?!”

Zhao Hai felt incredibly relaxed after this meal. When the holiday ended, he would be the principal at his school.

Host and guests were equally happy.

After dinner, Zhao Hai and Wang Hong cleared the table, while Zhao Yue went back to her room to rest. They had a class reunion tomorrow.

The scores were out, and everyone was relaxed. Those who were meant to get in would, and those who weren’t were already destined.

During this time, Wang Hong looked at her husband and whispered, “What do you think about our Yueyue and…”

Zhao Hai gave a self-deprecating laugh, “I advise you not to think about it. Not to mention what Yueyue thinks of Ye Liuyun.

Just consider that their future paths are completely different. Ye Liuyun is destined to be a star in the sky.

How could our family possibly keep up? It’s important to know one’s place.”

“Look at you. I think my daughter is pretty good too.”

“It’s not that Yueyue isn’t good, but Ye Liuyun is too dazzling. Their life trajectories simply won’t intersect.”

...On the road.

Secretary Liu briefly explained the situation to Ye Liuyun. From Ning Nanguo’s attitude, he seemed to lean more towards National Martial Arts University.

However, Ning Nanguo also conveyed that everything depended on Ye Liuyun’s own wishes.

“I understand. Thank you, Secretary Liu.”

“You’re welcome, young master. But you really need to charge your phone in the future, otherwise, it’s truly difficult to find you,” Secretary Liu said with a wry smile.

He had initially called Ye Liuyun, but there was no answer. Then he went to his home.

He wasn’t home either. Finally, he had to get someone to check the surveillance footage to find out where Ye Liuyun had gone.

Hearing this, Ye Liuyun pulled out his phone from his pocket and saw that it was indeed turned off!

He shook his head with a wry smile, “I truly forgot about that.”

He had been so engrossed in his battle suit set all afternoon, his mind completely focused on it.

After speaking, Ye Liuyun looked at Secretary Liu, “Secretary Liu, you really don’t need to call me young master. It sounds awkward. You can call me Liuyun or Xiao Ye.”

The words “young master” always sounded strange to him.

Secretary Liu didn’t insist either... In a heavily guarded villa conference room in Quancheng, Ning Nanguo looked at the few people in front of him with an inexplicable smile.

The directors of admissions offices, who usually presided over various schools, were all gathered today.

“Everyone, please bear with me for a moment. I’m going downstairs to take some medicine. Please excuse me.”

The people present stood up and spoke one after another: “Old Ning, please go ahead, we don’t mind waiting.”

“Chief Ning, please rest first. You can come down when Ye Liuyun arrives.”

“It’s so late, we truly apologize for disturbing you.”

Ning Nanguo pressed his hands down, smiling, “Please sit, everyone. Don’t be so formal.”

After speaking, he went upstairs. He felt a bit constrained with these few people around, so he decided to leave the environment to them.

It was also beneficial for them to chat beforehand.

It would save him from having to talk more later.

After Ning Nanguo left, the six people in the room exchanged glances and then sat down one after another.

At that instant, the air was immediately filled with the scent of gunpowder.

Besides Niu Qingtian, there were five other people seated: two women and three men.

As soon as they sat down, the black-robed middle-aged man opposite Niu Qingtian spoke in a teasing tone.

“Director Zhou, Director Hua, it’s a bit much for you two to come here to snatch people, isn’t it? The first and second best are already with you. Are you not leaving us any chance at all?”

“Hahaha, you can’t say that. Everyone has evaluated Ye Liuyun’s profile; his potential is extraordinary, so how can we not try to win him over?” Hua Wanjun, the person in charge of Shangwu University, a woman with an outstanding figure in a blue form-fitting dress, covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

“Director Hua is right; everyone should compete fairly!” Zhou Yunsheng said indifferently, a hint of arrogance in his brows.

The Imperial Capital Heavenly Martial University was the top-ranked school, and among everyone present, he felt quite confident.

“Our gathering here today can be considered a grand event. As Director Zhou said, it’s every man for himself, but I believe our Yunwu University has enough capital.” Director Cao of Yunwu University sat up straight.

Niu Qingtian watched as everyone engaged in a war of words, feeling calm inside.

Outside, those students would beg and plead and still might not even get to meet them. Now, everyone here was full of gunpowder in their conversation, all because of one Ye Liuyun.

But this was their job: to find outstanding Geniuses and recruit them into their schools.

Without Ning Nanguo, everyone no longer held back. They weren’t meeting for the first time, and it was clear who was in charge of each school.

You said one thing, I said another. You mocked me, I belittled you. When they got excited, they practically wanted to stand on the table.

If this weren’t Ning Nanguo’s residence, they probably would have started shouting long ago.

The two women were also equally unyielding in their contention.

Outside the door, the secretaries of the various school heads were gathered together. In comparison, they were much more harmonious, chatting and laughing.

Just as everyone was discussing, a car slowly drove into the courtyard.

The surrounding secretaries immediately picked up their phones to inform the big shots inside.

Secretary Liu opened the car door. After Ye Liuyun got out, he looked at the group of people at the entrance, his eyes full of curiosity.

“They are all brought by the directors of the admissions offices of various schools.”

After Secretary Liu finished speaking, Ye Liuyun was slightly surprised. Goodness, these people came with teams.

Secretary Liu opened the door for Ye Liuyun a step ahead, and Ye Liuyun gave the secretary a deep look.

It was an exaggeration; ever since he left Zhao Hai’s house, he hadn’t actively opened a door for himself.

Was this the effect of power?

Upon entering the room, a huge living room came into view.

Ning Nanguo was sitting on the sofa. Seeing Ye Liuyun arrive, he stood up and pointed upstairs.

“You’re here, Liuyun. Let me take you to meet these directors. They’re all in a heated argument because of you.”

“In a heated argument? Is it that serious, Old Ning?”

“It is! Go up and see. Listen to what conditions they’re offering.”

“Alright, Old Ning.”

“Old Ning? Call me Dad!”
