After all, Lin Ke was old, and after suffering such a sudden attack, he did not lead everyone to continue to embark on the road back to China, but returned to Daodu Academy.

The eight of them lingered in the academy for another three days, and it was not until the three old professors of Yulong Academy arrived that they took the special plane sent by the Red Empire, escorted by a whole group of fighters, and returned to the Red Empire safely and landed at Pingcheng International Airport.

The group of eight people was warmly welcomed by the senior management of Yulong College, including Lu Tao. Since Yulong Academy has taken annual vacation at this time, most of the students have left the school, and few students still stay in the college, so the celebration and commendation meeting has been arranged after the annual vacation, and only Lu Tao and several giants of Yulong Academy have come to celebrate.

Shen Yuanqiang supported the weakness of his body and attended this celebration banquet. He was actually reluctant to come, he just wanted to stay in the dormitory to recuperate, but he thought of asking Lu Tao, thinking that he would have a fly in the ointment without his own team, and thinking that he needed to make a special trip to thank Huichen, and he still came down with Cheng Ruan's support.

Cheng Ruan's injuries had basically healed, and she hadn't been hit too hard, the most serious injury was the internal injury caused to her by the last bloodthirsty technique, and under the care of Shen Yuan, an experienced priest, the recovery speed was extremely fast.

The atmosphere of the celebration banquet was warm and cordial, Lu Tao said some words, and promised the five members of the team a reward after the annual leave, and then did not say much, only let everyone eat and drink.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the celebration banquet came to an end, Lu Tao let everyone disperse, leaving Shen Yuan alone, and brought him into an empty conference room nearby.

The huge conference room was empty, and only two cups of steaming tea were placed in front of Shen Yuan and Lu Tao.

Lu Tao sat opposite Shen Yuan with a smile, nodded and said: "This performance is very good, thanks to you, I was able to come out of this Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger Exchange Competition, once again raise the prestige of my Jade Dragon Academy and the Red Empire, and let the whole world see the strength of my Red Empire." Here, I would like to thank you on behalf of the Red Empire and the Academy. ”

"The first place in the exchange competition, this is a rare honor, no matter where you go in the future, it is a strong feat. ”

"As for the final untimely behavior of the Super Empire, the Red Empire has already dealt with it, you don't have to worry too much, such a situation will not occur again in the future. ”

Shen Yuan didn't say a word, holding the teacup in one hand, warming his somewhat cold body with heat that was better than nothing. He was still a little weak, even if he wore a lot, his body could not resist the cold of this winter, and Qiu Hong was left at home by him, which made him feel even more cold out of thin air.

He only nodded lightly, listened quietly, and waited for Lu Tao's next words.

Sure enough, Lu Tao changed his words and talked about the part that Shen Yuan was most concerned about.

"Tianxuan Daoist is not in this realm now, he is celebrating the New Year in other realms, I have already contacted him, and when the New Year is over, he will come to the academy to treat you. ”

Shen Yuan nodded, smiled happily, and said, "Thank you, Dean." ”

Lu Tao waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is what you deserve." In addition......"

He lengthened his voice, deliberately withdrawing the words that followed.

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows, he saw a little ambiguity in Lu Tao's expression, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, Dean?"

"It stands to reason that I, an old man, shouldn't care too much about the affairs of you young people. But I feel the need for me to remind you of the soft things. ”

Lu Tao said slowly.

The "softness" in his mouth is his niece, Cheng Ruan.

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Lu Tao quietly, and waited for his next step.

"Shen Yuan, you are very good, I have to admit it. Squishy is also very good, I'm sure you know it well. Good young people are always attracted to each other, and this is normal. ”

"But there are many excellent people in this world, and there are many people who are attracted to softness. ”

"I don't say this to beat the mandarin ducks, in fact, I think it's a good thing if you can be with the soft. ”

"But I want to remind you that if you don't pull away now, the pressure you will face in the future may be hard for you to imagine. ”

"During this time, the relationship between the two of you is ambiguous, and no one has noticed. But in this exchange competition, as well as the subsequent attack of the Super Empire, it is enough to reveal a lot of information. ”

"These pressures, Squishy can't bear all of them for you, one day, they will bypass Squishy and find you directly. The day won't be long. ”

"After all, you have a shallow foundation, and you don't have a strong enough force behind you. Other outstanding young people may not be better or stronger than you, but the resources at their disposal are far beyond your reach. ”

"That's all there is to it. ”

Lu Tao raised his head and drank the hot tea in the cup, got up and patted Shen Yuan's shoulder, took out a small lead box from his arms, put it in front of Shen Yuan, and said, "Soft said you need this, I took it out of the academy library." This is one of the rewards you deserve for this five-college exchange competition, and the four of them will come to the academy library to choose after the New Year's Festival, so you don't have to come. ”

"Of course, if you're not satisfied with this thing, you can ask me for a change. With a faint smile on his face, Lu Tao said as he walked out.

Walking to the door of the conference room, Lu Tao opened the door with one hand, and suddenly remembered something, turned his face sideways and admonished, "By the way, if you still want to be with Soft, you must take time to go to the northern tribe." This is important. ”

As he spoke, Lu Tao couldn't help but smile, as if he had thought of something interesting, and gently pushed the door and walked out.

Shen Yuan sat in the conference room for a long time, and no one came to disturb him. He drank the cup of tea, opened the small lead box in his hand through a crack, glanced at it, and then closed it, a smile on his face.

It wasn't until more than half an hour later that Shen Yuan felt that the strength in his body had recovered somewhat, and at the same time he had figured out a lot of things, and left the conference room of the office building of Yulong Academy with a brisk smile on his face.

Walking out of the office building, Shen Yuan saw a lonely back in the cold winter wind.

This back is delicate and delicate, with long hair like a waterfall falling down the shawl, hanging down the waist, setting off her figure more femininely.

Shen Yuan's heart moved, just looking at this extremely familiar back, he could imagine the cute appearance of the beauty sitting with her cheeks up.

He tiptoed quietly behind Cheng Ruan, trying to scare her, but he didn't expect that the moment he just got close, Cheng Ruan stretched out a hand and grabbed his ankle. It seems that if it weren't for his serious injuries, Cheng Ruan would have grabbed his feet and dragged him down.

Cheng Ruan turned his head, his bright eyes swept around Shen Yuan's face a few times, let go of his hand, and asked softly, "What did your cousin say to you?" Why have you been in it for so long. ”

Shen Yuan smiled softly and said softly: "I didn't say anything special, it was just some things after the New Year's Festival." I was a little thirsty and drank some water in it. ”

Cheng Ruan's eyes flickered, but he didn't debunk this obvious lie and continued to ask, just got up and grabbed Shen Yuan's arm and said, "Let's go, help you, a seriously injured man, go home." ”

With a brisk smile on his face, Shen Yuan held Cheng Ruan's small hand with his backhand, lowered his head and asked in her ear, "When are you going home?"

During the Chinese New Year, I always have to go home.

The happy expression on Cheng Ruan's face seemed to pause for a moment before he replied, "Two days later, the ticket was booked two months ago. ”

"Your ...... hurt," Cheng Ruan's voice hesitated a little.

Shen Yuan shook his head with a smile, "It's okay, don't worry." After two days, you will be able to run and jump. ”

......

Cheng Ruan is finally gone.

Shen Yuan personally sent Cheng Ruan into the airport, watched her walk into the security channel, and returned to the dormitory in Chiping City by car alone.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to confess and let Cheng Ruan and himself formalize the relationship between lovers.

Although the relationship between the two has long been tacit, and even a little bright, so that Cheng Ruan dares to put the relationship between Shen Yuan and other girls on the table to talk about it.

But Shen Yuan always felt that there should be something ritualistic.

But in the end, he didn't choose to do so. First, because he could feel that Cheng Ruan was enjoying his current state, he was afraid that this confession would cause a subtle change in the relationship between the two. Second, what Lu Tao said was right, if he Shen Yuan wanted to really stand beside Cheng Ruan, there were still many tests waiting for him, and now was not the best time.

Shen Yuan sat in the dormitory for a while, then he couldn't stay a little longer, so he took a vegetarian meal that had just been made in the morning and went to Yulong Academy.

made a special trip to thank Huichen for saving his life, and said a few words with Huichen, Shen Yuan found that this spiritual Buddha senior didn't seem to be interested in talking, so he retired with interest.

At this juncture of the Chinese New Year, Yulong Academy is very abnormal and humane to cancel most of the bans on the academy's floating island.

All research projects were suspended, and the daily curfew was lifted, and the island was kept in warm temperatures throughout the day.

Yulong Academy didn't explain why, but Shen Yuan knew why.

In order to give students who do not have a home to return to a place to stay, so that they can spend this time in the library.

There are things that can be done to divert one's attention from emotions such as sadness, loneliness, and even fear and despair.

There aren't many students and staff staying in the academy, and if they want to, they can even find a random classroom to make a bunk.

But there are always some people, and Shen Yuan is one of them.

Most of these people are in a hurry, and their complexions are also very cold, very similar to the cold winter snow falling from the sky, I don't know if it is because most of the people who have not returned home at this time are a little withdrawn.
