He is now meeting with Lu Mingfei in his normal state, his first personality. He chose the Regent Hotel as the meeting place to showcase the financial strength of Kassel College, which is already the most expensive hotel in Rongcheng.
Then he offered Lu Mingfei a $50,000 scholarship, so how could he not win him over?
Just then, the waiter knocked on the door and came in, walking slowly to Ye Sheng's side to remind him that the person he was waiting for had arrived.
Um? ?
Ye Sheng invited the two in, then noticed Lu Mingfei not far away. He looked down at the photo of Lu Mingfei and two question marks appeared above his head.
The young man before me, full of vigor and spirit, accompanied by a beautiful woman, was completely different from the man in the photograph.
Nani?
Is the intelligence false?
Ye Sheng was confused. Was this reasonable?
No, that makes perfect sense.
Ye Sheng adapts quickly and is incredibly resilient.
He refuted the "Lu Mingfei is mentally ill theory," speculating that this was due to the influence of Lu Mingfei's bloodline.
Like the Uchiha clan, hybrids are born melancholic, and the more melancholic they are, the higher their bloodline's quality. Their bloodline awakening can be either innate or acquired.
Originally an unremarkable boy, after being greatly stimulated and awakened, his life underwent a dramatic change, embarking on the path of a domineering protagonist who slaps people in the face.
That possibility also exists.
Otherwise, how can we explain Lu Mingfei's example?
His current prowess is too great; Ye Sheng estimates that even the freshman supernova Caesar would have to avoid his brilliance.
Caesar: I should avoid his sharp edge?!
Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang took their seats, sitting opposite Ye Sheng.
Ye Sheng clapped his hands and called the waiter over. Originally, a meal for two was prepared, but there was an extra Su Xiaoqiang, so the menu had to be changed and three meals made again.
"Lu Mingfei, you need to be mentally prepared for what we're about to discuss. And so is Ms. Su Xiaoqiang next to you. This could be a worldview-shattering experience for you."
Ye Sheng didn't plan to invite Su Xiaoqiang, mainly because she was just an ordinary person. She might have a trace of dragon blood, but she was far from meeting the admission standards. Even if she joined Kassel College, she could only do odd jobs in the logistics or medical departments.
Of course, Su Xiaoqiang might not be willing to give up her peaceful and comfortable life to go to a mental hospital that studies lizards and court death.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei had also called Su Xiaoqiang, Ye Sheng felt awkward asking her to step aside.
Listen to it first, and then it won't be too late to go through the whole process of hypnosis, brainwashing, and memory deletion.
"Please speak." Lu Mingfei said solemnly, prepared to remain composed.
"First of all, are you familiar with Kassel College?"
“You mentioned Kassel College in your email yesterday morning. I looked it up online and found it’s a foreign university with limited official information. It’s an affiliated school of the University of Chicago,” Lu Mingfei said.
"Kassel College is ostensibly a university, but in reality, it's a military institution dedicated to training warriors. Lu Mingfei, do you believe that dragons truly existed in this world?"
Chapter 34 How could Lu Mingfei not love? How could he not hate? (Please continue reading)
Ye Sheng observed Lu Mingfei's expression; the other man remained calm, as if he had known all along. At the very least, he wasn't a staunch materialist and could accept the existence of dragons.
"Now, the blood flowing through your veins contains half of the dragon's gene pool. Do you see my golden eyes? They are the best proof."
Anyone who possesses dragon blood is called a hybrid. You and I are both.
Our ancestors once fought and slaughtered dragons, beheading the dragon king. However, dragons are a wicked and not easily killed creature; they merely enter a deep slumber and will one day awaken.
What you encountered last Friday wasn't a dragon, but rather a dragon's vassal, named Deadpool.
Our mission as hybrids is to thwart the dragons' plot once again and protect the peace of this world. Thus, Kassel College was founded, and thus it came into being.
Naturally, the material base determines the superstructure, and Kassel College provides generous benefits to every member.
Lu Mingfei, my bloodline is only B-grade, but your grade in the academy is S-grade, the highest level. The academy hasn't recruited an S-grade student for many years.
Do you know what this means?
If you enroll, you will not only receive a $50,000 scholarship every year, but you will also have ridiculously high access rights on campus. You can use many materials and props that are not available to us.
We do not deny the differences between ranks; you possess inherent rights and responsibilities.
Ye Sheng slowly exhaled, waiting for Lu Mingfei's response.
"Does Kassel College mean they want me to join you and become a dragon slayer?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Yes. Your combat value is immense. To be honest, after witnessing your battle in which you killed the Serpent Deadpool, among the people I know, none of them are as good as you."
"Once you join the academy, we will spare no effort in nurturing you and forging you into a powerful warrior," Ye Sheng said sincerely.
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei did not give an immediate reply, but instead glanced at Su Xiaoqiang.
Su Xiaoqiang initially raised her head, displaying the pride of a little celestial maiden, but later, she slowly lowered her head and remained silent.
Without a doubt, Su Xiaoqiang felt inferior.
It turns out that the boy next to her is so outstanding and capable. Even the mysterious man with the gun, oh, it's Ye Sheng, praised Lu Mingfei's extraordinary qualities.
But... what about me?
Su Xiaoqiang keenly noticed that Ye Sheng hadn't mentioned her at all in his previous words. For the first time, she felt both amused and exasperated about the fact that she was human.
Su Xiaoqiang thought Lu Mingfei would probably agree, not for the bonus or benefits, which she could provide herself.
But Ye Sheng is the same kind of person as Lu Mingfei.
A monster is a monster because it is alone and lives in a circle of people who are not of its kind.
If you were in a circle full of monsters, where the monsters were also "human," you wouldn't need to worry about others' subconscious fearful gazes or looks of rejection.
Su Xiaoqiang and Lu Mingfei are not related by blood, which cannot eliminate his loneliness.
She heard Lu Mingfei say, "It sounds very tempting... but I refuse."
Su Xiaoqiang suddenly raised his head and saw Lu Mingfei's calm profile. He said, "I am very grateful for your invitation, but I have a clear plan for the future. I will study hard, take the college entrance examination next year, strive to get into a good university, find a good job after graduation, get married and have children, and live a peaceful life."
This may sound a bit grandiose and unrealistic, but in reality…
Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang exchanged a glance, smiled slightly, and continued, "Let's start with the monthly exam next Monday, where our total score surpasses that of my deskmate."
Su Xiaoqiang bared her teeth, not wanting to lose face.
Ye Sheng's suspicious gaze shifted between Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang. The intelligence indicated that Lu Mingfei had a crush on a girl named Chen Wenwen... Oh well, whether the intelligence was false or outdated, it didn't matter.
It's so cute, I forgot that even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman.
There are quite a few pretty girls at Kassel College. If it weren't for the fact that Shudeyaki needed to recuperate, she would have come along too.
She's white-haired! White-haired! The nation is a born white-haired fetishist!
Of course, Ye Sheng would get angry with anyone who let Jiu Deya use her beauty to seduce him, unless it was him personally.
Then it's alright.
All they do is praise: Haha, this plan is brilliant.
“Lu Mingfei, I forgot to mention earlier, your parents were also students at Kassel College, and are now honorary alumni. They’ve already spoken to the principal, and they’ll be admitting you with a letter of recommendation after you graduate high school,” Ye Sheng said.
"Mother?"
Lu Mingfei looked slightly taken aback.
Su Xiaoqiang, who had been inexplicably smug, was shocked to see this scene. She thought to herself, "Wow! I never expected Lu Mingfei to be a mama's boy."
Come to think of it, what Lu Mingfei lacked most in his upbringing was maternal love.
Xia Mi is a milk dragon.
Lu Mingfei is just a Vallon.
Ye Sheng nodded, clicked the mouse a few times with his right hand, and handed the laptop to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei looked at the computer screen and saw a photo.
It's a photo of Lu Lincheng and Qiao Weini, walking hand in hand along a path covered with fallen red leaves.
Based on the time frame, it's estimated to be autumn, but the exact year and location are uncertain.
However, Lu Mingfei noticed that his parents were very young and were wearing the same uniforms as Ye Sheng.
After ruling out the possibility of Photoshop manipulation, Lu Mingfei initially believed that Ye Sheng's words were true and that his parents were indeed students at Kassel College.
When he was a child, Lu Mingfei asked his parents which university it was, because he wanted to get into it when he grew up.
His parents just patted his head and said that he was abroad.
I never expected it to be at Kassel College.
"Then what about my parents now..."
"Archaeology. Or rather, excavating and exploring the tombs of the dragon race around the world. As for now, I'm sorry, I don't know the whereabouts of Mr. Lu Lincheng and Ms. Qiao Wenni, but I can assure you they are safe and sound."
The principal has been in contact with them. "Once you get to Kassel College, go and ask the principal yourself. He's a refined and approachable gentleman," Ye Sheng said.
“This…” Lu Mingfei hesitated.
Seeing his parents was his greatest obsession. Apart from a few ambiguous letters, Lu Mingfei had not seen their faces or heard their voices for a long time.
After all these years, do my parents still look the same as I remember them?
Do you have gray hair like your uncle, and wrinkles like your aunt?
Lu Mingfei even suspected that his parents had died abroad, and that the child support they sent every year was an inheritance. The envelopes were also written by someone else imitating the handwriting or writing several decades' worth of text in one go, and a letter was sent regularly every year.
"I...miss my mom and dad," Lu Mingfei said softly.
At this moment, he was neither an S-class student appointed by Kassel College nor a monster, but just a pitiful left-behind child.
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoqiang was deeply moved, biting her lower lip, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Lu Mingfei almost made your brother Qiang feel maternal.
After a while, Lu Mingfei suddenly spoke:
"...I'm willing to join Kassel College, but they must come and pick me up in person."
Lu Mingfei looked at Ye Sheng, his tone more serious than ever before.
