Yu
Chapter 463 Seven Virtues Origin
With the help of Qin Wangchuan, Jiang Xiao successfully completed the registration. From now on, Jiang Xiao could be considered a man officially registered with the Star Warrior Association.
Since the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University had just started, the freshmen were led out on field exercises by their teachers. So Jiang Xiao didn't have any classes, and his training time was arranged by Qin Wangchuan.
After a night of training, plus the trip to register, the two returned to the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University around noon. Qin Wangchuan took pity on Jiang Xiao and gave him a day off.
Jiang Xiao's mind also became active. He still needed two letters of recommendation.
Who should he ask for these two letters of recommendation?
Compared to the regular practical course teachers at the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University, the wilderness instructors should be stronger. Moreover, they were people who had come out of real life-and-death battlefields, so they should be more dangerous.
But the teachers at the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University were different. Even if they weren't soft-hearted, they would at least look at the children from a purely teacherly perspective.
Thinking of this, Hu Hu's bald head appeared in Jiang Xiao's mind.
There was no way around it. He had only ever performed tasks under this practical course teacher.
Jiang Xiao was lying lazily on his bed in his dormitory, forcing himself to stay awake and sending a WeChat message to Baldy Hu.
Unfortunately, Baldy Hu didn't reply after a long time.
It seemed that he must be leading the students on field exercises in another dimension. He would wait until he came back.
Jiang Xiao thought about it and finally realized, to his dismay, that he really didn't know many practical course teachers.
The only one he was relatively familiar with was a practical course teacher with extraordinary strength, who could almost represent the top combat power of the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University.
That was the practical course teacher who had single-handedly withstood the gate of the Yan Pan Institute—Fang Xingyun!
Back then, when the Yan Pan Institute opened, so many teachers rushed over, but why did only Fang Xingyun's arrival cause cheers from the juniors and seniors?
This indirectly proved Fang Xingyun's strength.
So… should he ask her for a letter of recommendation?
Might as well give it a try?
She was so gentle. The requirements she made shouldn't be too excessive or too dangerous, right?
Jiang Xiao thought it over and over again, and finally decided to call Teacher Fang Xingyun. He wondered how the relationship between this Bai Fumei (white, rich, and beautiful) and Hai Tianqing was progressing.
Sigh, he was so incompetent as a little matchmaker. He hadn't cared about their recent situation for a long time.
"Beep beep~ beep beep~"
The phone was quickly connected, and Teacher Fang's gentle voice came from the other end, with a hint of joy: "Little Pi?"
"Ah." Jiang Xiao sat up from the bed, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Teacher Fang, hello."
"Hehe." Fang Xingyun's gentle laughter came from the phone, "Teacher is fine. Have you returned to school? Shouldn't the freshmen be out on field exercises? What happened?"
Hearing her slightly nervous and concerned words, Jiang Xiao quickly said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Have you forgotten? I'm a wilderness apprentice and don't follow the main force on field exercises."
"Oh, right. Little Pi is a famous wilderness apprentice," Fang Xingyun said with a chuckle.
Jiang Xiao helplessly supported his forehead. She was indeed very gentle, but this tone of treating him like an elementary school student really made Jiang Xiao feel frustrated.
Perhaps in Fang Xingyun's heart, whether it was Star River Overlord Han Jiangxue or Star Cloud newbie Jiang Xiao, they were all children…
Fang Xingyun saw that Jiang Xiao didn't speak for a long time, so she opened her mouth and said, "What's the matter? Little Pi? Do you want to eat hot pot?"
"Uh…" Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said, "The second half of the semester has begun, and the school will soon be selecting team members for the World Cup."
Fang Xingyun: "Mm?"
Jiang Xiao continued: "I want, uh… to ask you to write me a letter of recommendation. The school stipulates that only with the recommendation of three or more practical course teachers can one be qualified to participate in the selection competition."
"Ah?" Fang Xingyun was obviously very surprised. She had thought of many reasons why this little Poisonous Milk would look for her, but she never expected that this little guy was actually here to ask for a letter of recommendation?
Fang Xingyun exclaimed in surprise and then stopped speaking.
Jiang Xiao was also a little embarrassed. Both ends of the phone were silent for a long time. Jiang Xiao took the lead in breaking the deadlock and weakly asked, "How is your relationship with Teacher Hai?"
"It's okay," Fang Xingyun's voice was obviously lower. Clearly, she had misunderstood the meaning of Jiang Xiao's words.
Of course, this was unavoidable. The adult world was very complicated.
Jiang Xiao's words to ease the awkward atmosphere were naturally understood by Fang Xingyun as Jiang Xiao trying to establish a relationship and trying to curry favor.
But then she heard Fang Xingyun say, "Little Pi, I know you are very confident and capable, and you have reached such a height at a young age, but…"
Fang Xingyun didn't blame Jiang Xiao's behavior of "currying favor". She still refused Jiang Xiao for legitimate reasons.
And Jiang Xiao also thought that he would hear the kind of refusal and education that Qin Wangchuan had said, but Fang Xingyun stopped halfway through her words.
On the other end of the phone, Fang Xingyun changed the subject and said, "Little Pi, have you had lunch?"
"Uh, not yet," Jiang Xiao answered truthfully.
"Then in 20 minutes, I'll wait for you at the North Gate of the school. I'll take you to eat hot pot," Fang Xingyun invited.
This…
Jiang Xiao slapped his thigh, full of regret!
He was really sleepy, especially sleepy!
If he had known that a phone call could get him hot pot, he would have called at night.
Wouldn't it have been wonderful to have a good afternoon sleep in the dormitory and then go for a little hot pot in the evening?
No matter how approachable and gentle Teacher Fang was, her identity was there, and Jiang Xiao had something to ask of her, so Jiang Xiao couldn't refuse.
Alright, he'd order the spiciest soup base later, and he wouldn't be sleepy while eating, right?
Jiang Xiao thought to himself and agreed to Fang Xingyun's invitation.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiao got out of bed and put on his clothes. Winter was a hassle, having to wear so many clothes. In summer, he could just get out of bed and walk away in his slippers…
After Jiang Xiao dressed, he walked straight out of the dormitory.
Two minutes later, Jiang Xiao returned, put the letter of recommendation that Qin Wangchuan had written for him in the morning in a file bag, and then walked out of the dormitory again.
Twenty minutes later, Jiang Xiao, wearing a thick white down jacket, a cotton hat, and a mask, stood at the North Gate of the school, attracting the curious gazes of many students.
Since this was the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University, it was different from the outside world. No matter how Jiang Xiao disguised himself, the students had an impression in their minds and could recognize Jiang Xiao.
When Fang Xingyun drove her four-ring car to stop in front of Jiang Xiao, Jiang Xiao had just finished signing his name for a senior.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly got into the car. Seeing Jiang Xiao's frozen red hands, Fang Xingyun turned up the car's air conditioner by two degrees and looked at Jiang Xiao with a smile, saying, "A big celebrity."
"Hehe, hehe." Jiang Xiao scratched his head and looked at the gentle middle-aged woman in front of him. He awkwardly chuckled, "Where are we going?"
Fang Xingyun said, "It depends on you. What time does your training start this afternoon?"
Jiang Xiao took off his mask and told the truth, "I have a day off today."
"Oh?" Fang Xingyun slowly started the car, not questioning the wilderness army's training plan, and said, "In that case, we have a lot of time. We can go to a nice restaurant."
As Fang Xingyun spoke, she took out her phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint, and threw the phone to Jiang Xiao, "Contacts, Qi Deyuan, reserve a spot."
"Oh." Jiang Xiao obediently opened the contacts, found Qi Deyuan. What kind of name was this? He had never heard of it.
An hour and a half later, the car slowly stopped in front of a restaurant. Fang Xingyun turned to look at Jiang Xiao, only to find that he was sleeping soundly.
Fang Xingyun smiled helplessly, bent her fingers, and gently knocked on Jiang Xiao's head, "Wake up, can you smell the fragrance?"
"Eh." Jiang Xiao opened his sleepy eyes. God testified that he didn't want to be so rude. He really hadn't slept all night.
In fact, not sleeping all night was one thing, but the key was that he had been training at super-intensity all night, and his mind was really tired.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly opened the car door and walked down, following Fang Xingyun into this huge restaurant.
The exterior style of the building was antique, and the interior decoration was even more eye-catching.
Screens, murals, rockeries, especially those light purple unknown flower trees, added some poetic charm to this place.
Walking towards the inner hall, the modern clothing of the diners was out of place with this place. In the center of the Eight Immortals tables in the hall were copper hot pots with steaming heat. It was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, and the atmosphere here was still hot.
Jiang Xiao raised his head, his gaze passing over the second floor and looking at the third floor. He guessed that the floor was full of private rooms.
The waiter led the two to the second floor, found a small compartment in this corridor-like building, and the teacher and student sat down.
Fang Xingyun handed the menu that the waiter gave her directly to Jiang Xiao, "See what you want to eat?"
Jiang Xiao opened the menu, wanting to eat every page he flipped through…
"You order, Teacher." Jiang Xiao handed the menu back.
If he kept flipping through it like this, Jiang Xiao was afraid that he would say to the waiter, "Bring me a copy."
Fang Xingyun smiled and took the menu, looked down at the dishes, and said, "Don't be so polite. When we're outside, you can call me Sister Fang, or Sister Yun."
Jiang Xiao looked at the snow scene outside the window and responded with a smile.
Fang Xingyun ordered the dishes, returned the menu to the waiter, nodded and smiled politely, and then looked at Jiang Xiao across the table, "You've been holding the file bag all the way. What treasure is inside?"
Jiang Xiao came back to his senses, smiled and opened the file bag, "This is the magic weapon to persuade you."
"Oh?" Fang Xingyun looked at Jiang Xiao with interest, "Let me see."
Five minutes later, the waiter kept serving hot pot dishes, and the copper pot in front of the two was steaming.
However, Fang Xingyun was still holding the letter of recommendation in her hand, with an expression of disbelief.
"Wow!" Fang Xingyun praised softly, looking at the letter of recommendation in her hand, and then looking up at the little Poisonous Milk opposite her, seemingly unable to connect the character described in the letter of recommendation with the little guy in front of her.
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "The wilderness army is very strict. It's not because he has a good relationship with me that he wrote this. What he wrote is all true.
I was able to get this letter because I met his requirements in a sparring session with Instructor Qin. There was no element of fraud, so please rest assured, Teacher."
Fang Xingyun looked down carefully at the letter of recommendation written by Qin Wangchuan, "Titles."
"Ah?" Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and hurriedly changed his words, "Sister Yun, rest assured. You also know the quality of the wilderness army and the seriousness of military discipline. This letter of recommendation is authentic and reliable, and there is no falsehood in it."
Fang Xingyun raised her head slightly, shook the letter of recommendation in her hand, and said, "All the Star Techniques in your current 7 Star Slots, are the descriptions on this accurate?"
Jiang Xiao nodded: "Of course."
"So…" Fang Xingyun put the letter of recommendation into the file bag, placed it beside her, leaned forward slightly, propped her elbows on the wooden table, supported her chin with the back of her hand, and said with a hint of slyness in her beautiful eyes, "The reason you don't show your Star Slots is because you're insecure, or are you afraid of making others feel insecure?"
Jiang Xiao: "…"
