Different World Card Master: Change the World with Cards

19: Old classmatesThe morning classes passed quickly.

Xu Bai looked at the hourglass; it was almost time for the morning classes to end. He fed Xu Le early, intending to pack up and head to the Academy.

The poor little guy, seeing delicious food but unable to eat it, was truly tormented.

The little one hadn’t realized what would happen later and was currently gulping down milk.

”Dong ~ Dong ~ Dong ~,” the three class-ending bells rang out.

Zhao Zixuan and his two companions split into two groups. Zhao Zixuan waited for Xu Bai at the Academy entrance, then took Xu Bai to the office to find the teacher and modify the application form.

Meanwhile, Fang Mu and Li Baoyu went to the cafeteria to try and snag two portions of braised pork. They planned to eat together, the four of them. Other dishes didn’t need to be rushed, but braised pork was incredibly popular; if they didn’t rush, they wouldn’t get any, and even rushing didn’t guarantee they’d get it.

Whether they’d eat lunch today depended on the two of them.

Xu Bai, carrying Xu Le and holding a parasol, had just crossed the road when he saw Zhao Zixuan waiting at the Academy entrance.

”Brother Xu, over here.” Zhao Zixuan waved his hand to get Xu Bai’s attention, and only lowered his hand when he saw Xu Bai walking towards him.

”Brother Xu, let’s go. I’ve already registered for you. We’re going to Teacher Ji’s office now.”

Zhao Zixuan finished speaking, took the parasol from Xu Bai, freeing Xu Bai’s right hand. Xu Bai then switched hands to hold Xu Le. The three walked together under the umbrella.

In the new environment, Xu Le was very happy, looking left and right with his eyes, and grabbing with his hands. If Xu Bai hadn’t been holding him, he might have already rushed into the nearby flowerbed. There were so many things that piqued his curiosity that he couldn’t take them all in.

Listening to Xu Le’s cheerful sounds along the way, Xu Bai and Zhao Zixuan also became happy.

”Knock knock knock”

”Come in.”

The teacher was indeed in the office. Since Teacher Ji didn’t teach the last class for both groups, it meant that Teacher Ji must have gone to eat earlier, not waiting until the student dismissal peak to eat.

”Hello, Teacher Ji. I’m here to modify our team’s application form.”

Hearing Zhao Zixuan’s words, Ji Yun pulled out a form from beside her, looked up, and handed out the application form she was holding. Unexpectedly, she saw an old acquaintance.

”Xu Bai? Is that you? Were you here after graduation? Is this... is this your child? Are you married?”

Ji Yun was a little surprised to see Xu Bai here, and then even more surprised to see the child in Xu Bai’s arms.

”No, this is my younger brother, named Xu Le. You can just call him Lele,” Xu Bai said, waving Xu Le’s small hand to greet Ji Yun. ”I went back to my hometown after graduation.”

”Good, good.”

Unexpectedly, Lele made a greeting sound, and the two of them laughed at the same time.

Listening to the conversation between the two people beside him, Zhao Zixuan chuckled and carefully asked, ”Teacher Ji, you know Brother Xu? Could it be...”

Before Zhao Zixuan could finish speaking, Xu Bai quickly interrupted him.

Looking at Zhao Zixuan, he knew he was thinking something wrong. Kids nowadays, in their adolescence, see a man and a woman and assume there’s something between them. He couldn’t let him continue, or it would be too awkward.

”We were classmates at the Higher Academy.”

Yes, the two were indeed classmates. In the Academy, compared to Xu Bai, whose grades were average, Ji Yun was relatively more dazzling. She had good grades, good looks, and a good family background; she was truly a favored daughter of heaven.
