Chapter 117 Even being the Imperial Tutor wasn't this tiring
As soon as the bell rang, the teacher on the stage immediately stopped lecturing, picked up his thick books, and left. The atmosphere in the classroom became much more cheerful, and everyone chatted and laughed.
Yun Yao was sitting in her seat, feeling bored and thinking about how to lead the capital to prosperity, when she felt several timid eyes looking at her.
Yun Yao looked up, and they pretended not to notice and looked away.
"Am I that scary? I'm not going to eat you! What do you want to ask me? Tell me." Yun Yao said.
There was a boy who wasn't particularly handsome, but was still quite good-looking, yet hesitated to speak.
"Hmm?" Yun Yao looked at him, her tone raised.
"Yun Yao, hello, I... I'm Jian Ning, and I'm... I'm the class monitor. We'd like to ask, are you really that good at archaeology?" After saying that, Jian Ning immediately lowered her head, not daring to look Yun Yao in the eye.
Is archaeology really that great? No.
Those were just things from their own memories being recalled again, which, in a way, was a bit unfair to those little guys.
However, Yun Yao couldn't tell them these things, so she could only nod.
"Yes, I'm very capable, officially recognized." Yun Yao didn't show any boasting, speaking as casually as if it were just a casual conversation.
"Then...then if we have any questions, can we ask you for help?" It was still the same boy named Jian Ning, who still didn't dare to look at Yun Yao.
Yun Yao discovered that the archaeology department at Beijing Normal University was entirely male, but these young men were rather shy.
"of course can."
Upon receiving Yun Yao's response, they were incredibly excited. Their earlier shyness vanished instantly, and they all gathered around Yun Yao's table, clutching their thick notebooks and books.
"I think there's something wrong with the answer."
"Yun Yao, I don't understand this."
……
Countless questions came crashing down on Yun Yao, who patiently explained them to them until all their doubts were resolved.
Once the surrounding air finally cleared up, Yun Yao slumped onto the table, utterly dejected.
I was never this tired when I was the emperor's tutor!
She began to understand why Beijing Normal University could stand firm in this dog-eat-dog university town: the students here didn't engage in any backstabbing or infighting; in their eyes, there was only studying, studying, and more studying!
……
Imperial Capital University, President's Office.
"Principal, Yun Yao has gone to Beijing Normal University," Gu Feng said with a worried expression.
The president of Imperial University, who was practicing calligraphy, didn't even pause in his movements and casually said, "A parasite that everyone hates has gone to a lousy, trashy school. Gu Feng, do you have to be so surprised?"
“Principal, Beijing Normal University is indeed not a threat, but Yun Yao herself is a variable. Back then, we didn’t see her talent either! Besides, now that Yansheng International is backing her up, if she were to sponsor Beijing Normal University, the status of our Imperial University would be in serious jeopardy!” Gu Feng earnestly advised.
However, the president of Imperial University seemed determined and didn't take Yun Yao seriously at all.
"Alright, Gu Feng, we managed to squeeze Beijing Normal University out of the top three universities the first time, so we're not afraid of doing it a second time. Besides, with Beijing Normal University's hopeless state, even ten Yun Yaos couldn't save it! How come you're getting worse as you get older? This isn't like you at all!"
Seeing his determination, Gu Feng didn't say anything more.
However, thinking about the current archaeology department, he still looked worried.
"Principal, Ge Xiaoxiao hasn't been doing well since Yun Yao left. She's been daydreaming in class, and she hasn't even come to school for the past two days. I'm worried..."
The president of Imperial University waved his hand dismissively and said, "Don't worry, the Ge family is a scholarly family. Old Master Ge knows which university they should choose. Ge Xiaoxiao won't cause any trouble."
Gu Feng breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving the principal's response.
The Archaeology Department of Imperial University is already suffering from a shortage of talent. If Yun Yao's departure takes away Ge Xiaoxiao, who has the most potential and talent, then there is no need for the Archaeology Department of Imperial University to continue operating.
Little did they know, their fears would soon come true.
……
As soon as Yun Yao stepped out of the school gate, she saw two familiar figures.
"Goddess!" Ge Xiaoxiao ran towards Yun Yao.
And the tall figure behind her also strode in with long, slender steps.
Yun Yao was embraced by Ge Xiaoxiao, and she rubbed her little head helplessly.
"Alright, you're all grown up, why are you still so reckless?" Ge Beiyao's slightly reproachful voice rang out.
Ge Xiaoxiao reluctantly withdrew from Yun Yao's embrace.
"Let's go! My older brother is treating today! Thank you for saving my life!" Ge Xiaoxiao is much more lively than before, and her every move is full of spirit.
Yun Yao shook her head and chuckled, unwilling to see Ge Xiaoxiao disappointed, so she got into Ge Beiyao's car.
After Yun Yao left, many people poked their heads out from the main gate.
"Sigh! The circle of the rich is really different. That's my dream man, and he actually opened the car door for Yun Yao!"
"Alright, Yun Yao must have some merits to become President Su's wife. The Su and Ge families have been on good terms for generations, so it's only natural that the younger generation gets along well. Let's go back and study!"
After everyone dispersed, they didn't see Yun Yao lower the car window and give them a meaningful look.
……
They went to a newly opened restaurant, and as soon as they sat down, Yun Yao noticed something unusual about it.
"You own this restaurant?" Yun Yao asked Ge Beiyao.
"Goddess, how did you figure that out?" Ge Xiaoxiao clung to Yun Yao's arm like a child, refusing to let go.
"The decor of this restaurant looks very gentle. I was fortunate enough to visit your house once, and the style is similar to this place. Also, the walls are covered with photos of Ge Beiyao. I can't help but see them."
Ge Xiaoxiao chuckled and nodded.
"Brother, what did I tell you? I told you my goddess could tell at a glance that this restaurant is yours!"
Ge Beiyao handed the menu to the waiter and glanced at Ge Xiaoxiao.
"Okay, you win." Ge Beiyao's eyes were full of doting affection.
Surrounded by such a warm and cozy environment, Yun Yao's mood improved considerably.
Seeing Ge Xiaoxiao reminded me of their previous agreement.
"This is for you."
After searching with her eyes closed, Yun Yao finally chose a suitable gift.
Because it's not very big, it won't look out of place when you take it out.
"what is this?"
"your present."
Ge Xiaoxiao also remembered the promise Yun Yao made to her before the exam: if she ranked in the top ten in the country, Yun Yao would give her a gift.
I never expected she would remember!
Yun Yao noticed the emotion in Ge Xiaoxiao's eyes, and her voice softened.
"open to take a look."
Ge Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to open the small box, and then her pupils contracted slightly, revealing the shock in her eyes.
“This…” Ge Xiaoxiao immediately closed the box and placed it back in Yun Yao’s palm. “Goddess, this is too precious. I can’t accept it.”
What Yun Yao gave her wasn't some small souvenir; it was a priceless white jade luminous pearl!
It is said that the white jade luminous pearl is produced in the South China Sea, and it takes thousands of years to create just one.
She once had the privilege of visiting the treasured possession of Zhenbaozhai, which was a white jade luminous pearl even smaller than this!
The fact that it was regarded as the prized possession of the Treasure Pavilion, which is full of rare treasures, shows that it is very valuable. And the one in Yun Yao's hand is much bigger than that one!
