"Classes officially start next week. I hope everyone has managed to move past the shadow of Military Training and has had a relaxing weekend."
After the class meeting concluded with the selection of class officers, the counselor delivered the final remarks.
Yang Xiaoyou glanced at the empty seat left by Liu Shaoqiang's absence due to leave and stifled a yawn as she made her way out of the classroom.
It was only natural that her fellow classmates, under such pressure from their studies, would not have time to show up. With the burden lifted from her shoulders, there was little else to handle this weekend aside from the airport pickup issue for tomorrow.
"Hey, that Cold Noodle hasn’t shown up since you two went out last time. You didn’t do anything to him, did you?" Yang Xiaoyou, who was tidying up her dorm before heading out to find something to eat, happened to run into Fang Jinke and Wang Xincheng.
After all, they were in the same department, and Wang Xincheng had been spooked by her recently. He had been passively getting closer to Fang Jinke and seemed too afraid to be alone with her, as if she might devour him.
Seeing Fang Jinke’s comment hit the nail on the head regarding their current situation, Yang Xiaoyou chose not to praise him but merely rolled her eyes before preparing to follow her planned route for dining.
At that moment, Fang Jinke seemed to think of something and turned to Yang Xiaoyou with a mysterious expression.
"By the way, are you free tomorrow? Want to join me at the airport?"
Initially uninterested in engaging with this fellow, Yang Xiaoyou paused slightly and gave him a peculiar look.
"Hehe, I have some insider information! I won’t share the details with you, but if you come with me tomorrow, you definitely won’t regret it. It could be a chance for some real close contact."
Fang Jinke feigned mystery, exuding an air of intrigue.
"I’m going to pick someone up too; I don’t mind hitching a ride," Yang Xiaoyou waved her hand dismissively and began to walk off on her own.
However, as she turned away, a thoughtful expression crossed her face. Chen Wuyou was clearly involved in this; they were secretly bringing someone over to avoid complications.
From what she knew about Fang Jinke, the gossip enthusiast, there was no doubt he had picked up some rumors from somewhere obscure.
Usually, such matters wouldn’t warrant much attention. But now that both she and Dream Butterfly were entering the final stages of their plans, she couldn’t afford to be careless.
No matter what, I must try my best to make that fool lean towards me, at the very least, I need to maintain neutrality and absolutely cannot create more pressure for myself.
Early Saturday morning, Yang Xiaoyou was shaken awake by Fang Jinke, that chubby fellow. Wang Xincheng, watching from the side, felt a chill run down his spine, fearing something terrible might happen.
As dawn broke, the three of them arrived in front of an Audi A6 parked in the lot.
“I’ll just send you over. When you meet the person, you’ll have to figure out how to get back on your own, hehe. But I wonder if you’ll even want to pick them up by then.” Given Fang Jinke's family background, it was only natural for him to have a car in college.
Although the car could be considered a luxury vehicle, this fellow still had some restraint; it wasn’t overly extravagant or ostentatious.
“All I need is a ride; I should have my own transportation here.” Yang Xiaoyou's lack of inquiry about specific details left Fang Jinke feeling somewhat frustrated, and for some reason, Wang Xincheng, that honest kid, wasn’t cooperating either.
His pale face seemed to show he was still scared—had he not recovered from the last military training? Wasn’t it just a minor issue?
“Brother Yang! I’m here!” After exiting the airport parking lot, Fang Jinke began waving enthusiastically. Although he called out “Brother Yang,” he certainly wasn’t referring to Yang Xiaoyou beside him.
Compared to his usual proud demeanor in the dormitory, his face now resembled a blooming chrysanthemum.
Yang Xiaoyou didn’t particularly like Fang Jinke, but he didn’t dislike him either. Sometimes he would generously treat everyone to meals and wouldn’t forget about those in the dormitory.
“Ah, you’re here. Tsk, you even brought two others along. Well, they can help carry some things; just remind them to be alert when we land.” The other fellow with the same surname as Yang Xiaoyou showed no interest in asking for their names. He simply nodded lightly and pointed towards the airport exit with his finger, indicating that one of his younger brothers should take them over while he stayed behind.
“You all heard that too; it’s best if you lend a hand later. But there are quite a few of them; it’s not like they need to do much. Slacking off isn’t a big deal. That fellow is just a high-level errand runner, but his boss is quite remarkable. It’s rare for me to get insider information like this.”
Glancing at the younger brother in front of him, Fang Jinke whispered to the two of them. At this point, there was no trace of the earlier admiration for that ‘high-level errand runner’—he had directly labeled him as such without hesitation.
Only now did Yang Xiaoyou seem to perk up a bit and asked with interest, “So who is his boss?”
“Wise King, the youngest brother of the current emperor, is not yet thirty years old. He is now the steward of the entire royal family, and his methods are remarkable. In terms of ability, he is far superior to that useless emperor.” Finally seizing the opportunity to show off, Fang Jinke felt a sense of pride, not realizing he was being overly dramatic.
Upon hearing his response, a strange glimmer flashed in Yang Xiaoyou's eyes.
Well, the division is now fully operational, collecting information about the royal family. He knew about this Prince, but he hadn’t expected to encounter him so unexpectedly without any prior targeting.
Moreover, due to the randomness of the situation, this encounter felt much more natural than if he had arranged and designed it all alone. It truly wasn’t a wasted trip.
Without a doubt, the purpose of Wise King Luo Guanxi’s appearance here was to meet Chen Wuyou and her group. It was unclear what means he had used to obtain this information.
Equally famous as his abilities is the romantic reputation of this youngest brother of the emperor. Approaching thirty and still unmarried, he has been surrounded by various scandals, particularly his fondness for starlets. Because of this, his notoriety is quite high.
More people know his real name than know what the current emperor is called.
However, because of this, based on the Second Prince's fellow Freak's behavior back then, Yang Xiaoyou could confirm that this so-called highly capable yet scandal-ridden Housekeeper was likely pushed forward as a deliberately eye-catching figure.
Yet even such a figure might have potential for deeper exploration.
Ah, there’s only one update today… There’s nothing I can do; when I went down with Foreman, the car broke down, and it got really late… I haven’t slept well either; it’s been quite painful. I don’t know if I can finish everything before training… Otherwise, I’ll have to take a week off.
