Chapter 35: The Distraught Dean Lin

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Yu Huang’s voice was loud and clear. After she roared, the wide and empty street outside the Purifying Spirit Academy instantly became silent.

Fortunately, it was night time. If it was daytime, the entire city would know that the respectable President of the Purifying Spirit Academy was an old man who loved to play with inflatable dolls.

The driver and the guards were shocked. They all looked at their dignified and powerful Dean in disbelief. So the Dean liked to play with dolls…

Was this the reason why he was never married?

Because a wife is not as attractive as a doll?

The black glass window was finally lowered, revealing Lin Jiansheng’s sulky face. “Little girl, what did you just say?”

Very good, she had successfully attracted his attention!

Lin Jiansheng stared at Yu Huang maliciously, as if he was threatening to kill her if she dared to spout nonsense. “Do you know what nonsense you are spouting?”

Yu Huang also knew that what she had just said would make people’s imagination run wild, but she had no choice. Her current identity was just a commoner, and Lin Jiansheng was a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master respected by everyone in the city. Not to mention the current her, but even the superstar Yu Huang before she was disfigured would find it harder than ascending to heaven to meet Lin Jiansheng.

In order to attract Lin Jiansheng’s attention, Yu Huang could only deliberately say such words that would cause one’s imagination to run wild.

Seeing that Lin Jiansheng had indeed noticed her, Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief.

She was not afraid of his threat at all. Instead, she took a step forward and looked at Lin Jiansheng calmly with her clear eyes. Without reducing her volume, she continued to ask, “My elder asked me to ask you, when are you planning to return the 20,000 yuan that you owe him?”

Twenty thousand dollars?

A blow-up doll?

Lin Jiansheng suddenly thought of an old friend, but wasn’t that person long gone?

Lin Jiansheng narrowed his aged but wise eyes. He stared at Yu Huang for a long time before asking thoughtfully, “Who is your elder?”

Yu Huang blinked her eyes at Lin Jiansheng, as if she was giving him a secret signal. She said, “Long time no see. My elder asked me to send his regards to the dean on his behalf. He wishes the dean the best of luck and longevity!”

When he heard this, Lin Jiansheng’s eyes flickered slightly, and his expression became agitated as he muttered to himself.

Lin Jiansheng suddenly slapped his thigh and said angrily, “Bullshit! How many times have I said that I wasn’t buying an inflatable doll, but a statue! Do you know what a statue is?!”

The dean, who always maintained his composure in front of the students, beat his chest and stomped his feet like an exasperated teenager. He cursed, “That bastard. It’s been more than a hundred years. He still remembers!”

After cursing, Lin Jiansheng realized that he had lost control of his emotions.

He immediately calmed down and pretended to be nonchalant as he looked at Yu Huang and said, “Bring me to see your elder. I’ll return the money to him personally.” Repaying the money was a lie. His real motive was to see his old friend.

Yu Donghai had long guessed that Lin Jiansheng would definitely request Yu Huang to bring him to see him after hearing that he was still alive.

However, Yu Huang still didn’t have the strength to protect herself now, and he was a cripple. Yu Donghai didn’t dare meet his old friend at all because he was afraid of drawing Yin Mingchong’s attention and exposing Yu Huang’s existence, causing Yu Huang to be killed.

Because of this, Yu Donghai specially instructed Yu Huang not to bring Lin Jiansheng to see him.

However, he had also told Yu Huang that Lin Jiansheng was a friend that he trusted very much. He could reveal Yin Mingchong’s true identity to Lin Jiansheng.

At the thought of this, Yu Huang could only reject Lin Jiansheng’s request.

Shaking her head, Yu Huang said, “I’m sorry, Dean Lin. My elder told me that the time isn’t right, so he can’t meet his old friend yet.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiansheng immediately understood the hidden meaning behind Yu Huang’s words.

The time was not yet right. He could not meet his old friend.

This meant that Yu Donghai had been in hiding. He was hidden in the shadows and isolated himself from the world. He was probably hiding from someone. Since he didn’t dare to meet with his old friend, it meant that the person he feared was extremely powerful and could discover him at any time.

When Lin Jiansheng thought of this, when he looked at Yu Huang, his expression was filled with suspicion. “Little girl, based on your words alone, I will not acknowledge your identity.”

Yu Huang immediately took out her school badge from her pocket and passed it to Lin Jiansheng without any worries. She was not afraid that Lin Jiansheng would not return it to her after taking it.

Lin Jiansheng took the school badge and quickly flipped it over. When he saw the words’ Yin Donghai ‘behind the school badge, his expression became slightly agitated.

That old man was really still alive!

Lin Jiansheng then said to the guards, “All of you, go back.”

The guards obeyed and retreated.

Lin Jiansheng opened the car door and got out. He said to the chauffeur standing in front of the car, “You get off first. We won’t be going to the capital tonight.”

The driver glanced at Yu Huang and left without asking further.

“Come in with me,” Lin Jiansheng said to Yu Huang.

Yu Huang nodded and followed Lin Jiansheng to the tall wall. After passing through the iron gate of the Purifying Spirit Academy, Yu Huang saw Sheng Xiao.

He walked alone in the vast plaza of the Purifying Spirit Academy.. The bright moonlight elongated his shadow.
