Imperial Treasure-Chapter 705 - 439: Timely Assistance

"Covering a class for the Archaeology department’s chronic skipper, what’s the deal with that?"

The professor’s breath hitched, silently lamenting that the affections of young ladies today were still quite innocent; all that dynastic romance and treachery was nothing but deception...

"So, this person here... I’m guessing you came to our school because of some project needs, right?"

This woman, whose gaze seemed to inherently look down on men, certainly wouldn’t act all girlish; her intentions must be more sophisticated, aligning more with the harsh realities of our society’s economy...

"I’m here to see a beauty."

Cough, cough, cough~

The professor, mid-tea sip, choked and coughed several times before he managed to break free from the encirclement: "Haha, what a sense of humor this student has. So, the question is, did you see her?"

Well, he’s pretty humorous too, huh~

Flower Demon’s eyelids fluttered, her beauty blooming like a flower. She tilted her head towards the second seat by the window on the right and smiled radiantly, "Saw her... the moment I walked through The Gate~"

The students suddenly ’got’ an insidious point.

She was here to see... a beauty!

Shit! Wolves from other departments and schools plotting is one thing, but damn it, even the women are poaching!

But once they saw the designer labels covering her and the arrogant aura with which she regarded them... they chickened out~

Men who’d been single for twenty years, give it a rest!

Everyone turned to look at Mo Ke, their gazes so complicated... full of grumbles and grievances.

The innocent victim of circumstance, the classical beauty, fell silent.

Even Yhan Qingwu was dragged back into the spotlight to revisit that label of ’lesbian’...

I should’ve known not to sit in a row... There’s no guarding against your team being backstabbers, for real!

In a bid for self-rescue, Mo Ke looked down and said softly, "Teacher, this lady is a friend of Sui Yi~"

Okay then, use Sui Yi as a shield...

The professor suddenly understood, "I see..."

I see your sister!

Meanwhile... a group of people, who looked like students but with distinctly Western faces, quite a few foreigners among them, were walking by in thick coats with bulges near their waists. They spread out, some passing by the building of the foreign language department and others by the classes of the ’09 foreign language majors... third-year... second-year...

A lot of students saw them but didn’t take much notice...

But those people stood by doors and windows looking in... Their gazes sharp and uncomfortable to meet...

Some came over to the Archaeology department as well...

A towering young man appeared at the door of Archaeology class one. The professor looked over, confused, as the young man scanned the room...

His gaze settled on Yhan Qingwu and Flower Demon.

Damn, how did they move so fast!

Does the university have their network too?

The two narrowed their eyes and frowned, ready to act, but the room was crowded, and they were reluctant to harm innocents...

Ye Zixu remained motionless, his expression as frosty as ever.

And the man outside stopped too, one of them reaching for a cellphone...

Flower Demon readied herself to shoot him in the head, Yhan Qingwu’s fingers gripped the Flying Leaf Darts, and Ye Zixu tore off a piece of paper... A male student nearby: ⊙﹏⊙b Sweat! Dude, what are you planning to do?

Just in the nick of time...

Crack!

The cellphone shattered!

The man was knocked back with a start, falling headfirst to the ground...

A stone hit the floor.

Uh... that plot twist came out of nowhere...

Just in time, whoosh— a bicycle stopped at the front door. The person in black trousers and a white shirt swung a long leg over, got off the bike, and stood at the door, sweeping his gaze over the four.

Thank God, finally.

The four inside simultaneously felt a sense of relief.

The Archaeology class was also surprised, Sui Yi, this guy suddenly came back...

But it makes sense, given the aftermath of the previous incident. Although Yhan Qingwu and others were on the list, it didn’t mean they were involved; perhaps those rumors were just that, rumors. That’s probably why Sui Yi was able to attend class today...

But many were taken aback when they saw Ming Lanyuan.

A white coat? A medical sister?

Could she be here to audit as well?

And at that moment, the campus broadcast suddenly announced...

"Attention, there’s a critical internal affair requiring organization, all administrative staff proceed to the assembly hall for an emergency meeting, and all students must immediately stop all classes and research, vacate their current locations, and leave the campus... Those who fail to comply will have thirty credits deducted. This is a serious mandate, no lenience will be given to violators, I repeat..."

Some initially thought it was a joke, but quickly realized it was the president’s voice, and the broadcast screen showed it was from the president’s office; clearly, this was no joke.

But it felt so abrupt and strange... especially that part about thirty credits...

All over the campus, amidst the students’ confusion, dissatisfaction, or delight, there was an inevitable sense of bewilderment...
