"Xuan Ming!"
It didn't take long before the morning class ended. Xue Qinghe sent someone to inform Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling of Xuan Ming's message and took them both to the cafeteria.
As soon as they met, Dugu Yan rushed up, as if wanting to give Xuan Ming a hug.
However, as soon as they approached, the two dragons on Xuan Ming's back showed obvious resistance.
Dugu Yan also came to his senses in time and stopped.
Xuan Ming is not used to too much physical contact and keeps a distance from everyone. Pulling hands and normal contact are fine, but overly intimate behaviors like hugging will cause him strong resistance.
Although Xuan Ming can hold back, the two dragons on his back that can express his feelings will not hide their resistance at all!
"You..."
Dugu Yan looked at Xuan Ming's condition carefully. He was not injured and his mental state was no different from before.
"Yanzi, don't be nervous, he's fine." Xue Qinghe said.
"Sit down and talk. Lingling, you should sit down too. Don't stand."
Dugu Yan nodded, and Ye Lingling also sat down.
Without saying a few words, Dugu Yan threw one question after another.
"Where have you been these past few months?"
"What happened that night?"
"…"
"I... don't want to say it, okay?" Xuan Ming said.
Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, "Of course, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it. It's good that you're back."
"By the way, have you eaten? I..."
"Just finished eating." Xuan Ming said.
Dugu Yan simply regarded him as an unlucky child, a friend, just like Hu Liena, and he really didn't want to fool her.
"Your hair..." Ye Lingling looked at Xuan Ming's hair.
"It's better than mine."
Duguyan also looked over and asked, "Really? Who helped you with the tattoo?"
Xuan Ming usually let his hair down before, and at most he would tie it up casually with a rope.
But now this half-tied high ponytail, paired with Xuan Ming's cold temperament, the contrast is so cute!
"The eldest prince?" Dugu Yan looked at Xue Qinghe.
"I remember you seem to be very good at braiding hair. I've seen you braiding the little princess' hair before."
"This wasn't done by me." Xue Qinghe forced a smile, but he was about to lose his temper in his heart.
Even how to tie hair was taught! How much happened in the few months in the Pope's Palace! ?
"Isn't it the eldest prince?" Dugu Yan looked at Xuan Ming in confusion.
"Who helped you with the tattoo?"
"I did it myself." Xuan Ming said.
Bibi Dong asked Hu Liena to help him with his hair, but the girl always had all kinds of braids and buns, and she had a lot of fun!
He couldn't stand it, so he had to learn a few ways to tie his hair from Bibi Dong.
Moreover, if he doesn't do a good job of tying the knot, Bibi Dong will have trouble.
Under the threat of pigtails, his progress was rapid.
"You can also... tie your hair?" Dugu Yan looked strange.
"I'm just young, not mentally retarded." Xuan Ming said.
"Hehe, that's not what I meant..." Dugu Yan was a little embarrassed.
It was really hard for her to connect something like tying hair with Xuan Ming, who was very cold and a bit dull.
"Why don't you make one for Yan Zi, so I can learn from her." Xue Qinghe suddenly said.
Dugu Yan was slightly stunned, "Okay."
As she spoke, Dugu Yan ruffled her long hair and turned her back to Xuan Ming.
Xuan Ming hesitated for a moment, but still stood up and stretched out his hand. He first grabbed two tufts of hair from the top of Dugu Yan's head and tied it up with a rope at the flattest part of the back of the head. At the end, a small bunch of hair flowed out and the tail of the hair was placed on the top of the head.
He took out hair from both sides of the ears and tied it loosely on top of the small bunch with a rope. Then he turned the tied hair left and right, passed the lower bunch of hair through the hole on the top, and finally turned the upper hair down, tidied it up, and finished.
"…"
Seeing Xuan Ming's skillful technique, Ye Lingling was full of envy, Dugu Yan was very satisfied, but Xue Qinghe was the only one who was a little upset.
Such a skilled technique! This is definitely not the first time Xuan Ming has done someone else's hair! What on earth happened in the Pope's Palace? !
"Lingling, see? Learn from me. Don't ask me to help you every time." Dugu Yan was very satisfied with her new ponytail, which was the same style as Xuan Ming's.
"But your own ponytail wasn't that good either." Ye Lingling complained in a low voice.
"That's better than what you did." Dugu Yan said confidently.
"You are five years older than me. When I am as old as you, I will definitely be better at it than you." Ye Lingling said.
"Oh? Are you going to rebel?" Dugu Yan frowned.
"Do you believe me? I'll give you two doses of poison?"
"I believe you, but I will go back and tell my grandmother to beat you up."
"…"
"Xuan Ming, did you often help people tie their hair before?"
While Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were playing, Xue Qinghe asked inexplicably.
"I did a lot of practicing when I was learning." Xuan Ming said.
"It seems that the person who taught you how to tie your hair has a good relationship with you." Xue Qinghe said.
"Girls' hair won't be messed with casually."
"Good relationship..." Xuan Ming's expression looked a little unnatural.
Bibi Dong taught him how to tie his hair, and then asked him to tie it for her. If he didn't do it well, he would have to wear a high bun for the whole day, and he was not allowed to take it off, otherwise she would shave his head.
When Hu Liena saw it, she also wanted to play and asked him to tie his hair. If he didn't do it well, she would either do it in two ponytails or a bun, and she would drag him around everywhere.
He once again experienced what it means that pressure is motivation!
"Yanzi, I have something else to do. I'll leave Xuan Ming to you. Here are the documents I prepared for him. Please take him to the Education Commission to handle it."
Xue Qinghe handed Xuan Ming's identity information to Dugu Yan, said a few more words, then stood up and left.
"What happened to the eldest prince?" Ye Lingling was a little confused.
"Why do I feel like his mood is... not right?"
"Really?" Dugu Yan didn't see it.
"A little bit." Ye Lingling said.
"Maybe something happened." Dugu Yan said.
Ye Lingling is an introvert, but she is very observant and is extremely sensitive to the emotional changes of people around her. Even the slightest fluctuation can attract her attention.
She felt something was wrong, there was definitely something wrong.
…
Board of Education.
Since the Tiandou Royal Academy is affiliated with the Tiandou royal family, the nominal president is the current emperor of the Tiandou Empire, so the position of president is no longer set up in the academy.
All matters of the academy, big or small, are decided by the Education Committee, which is composed of the three most senior and powerful members of the Education Committee. When encountering important matters, the Tiandou royal family will also be consulted.
The Tiandou royal family attaches great importance to the academy. Although the emperor has no time to take care of the affairs here, he usually appoints royal members of high status to be in charge of the affairs of the academy.
And now, the royal member in charge of Tiandou Royal Academy is the eldest prince Xue Qinghe.
"Xuan Ming, the three teaching committee members of Tiandou Royal Academy are all Soul Douluos above level 80. You have to be polite when you meet them later." Dugu Yan said.
"Politeness?" Ye Lingling hesitated to speak.
Anyone can say these two words, but it doesn't seem appropriate for you, Miss Dugu, right?
"Huh?" Dugu Yan glared at Ye Lingling.
"Don't tear down my stage, okay?"
"Oh..." Ye Lingling stopped talking.
"If you enroll now, you can be in the same class with Lingling..." Dugu Yan's expression looked a little unnatural.
"How about you join me?"
Everyone in the academy knew who she was. It would be fine for Xuan Ming to walk with her, but if he walked alone, not only would his peculiar appearance easily attract attention, but even if he didn't have this peculiar appearance, it would be easy for a newcomer to be bullied here! Those small groups of nobles liked to unite to bully others and recruit younger brothers!
Basically every new student who arrives at Tiandou Royal Academy will be tossed around, male and female alike.
She didn't have a very good reputation in Tiandou Royal Academy because she had already obtained her first spirit ring when she enrolled. Then, she almost poisoned those students who provoke her!
Although her first soul skill is to control the interference-type poisonous fog, her Green Phosphorus Snake martial soul is equally poisonous even without soul skills! Most soul masters can't withstand her poison at all. She was just giving a warning, but those people were scared and thought they were going to die.
Then, as the story spread, she became known as a cruel and vicious woman.
