"No, definitely not!" Yan Liang promised after hearing Tang Zheng's words.
Tang Zheng glanced at him and asked, "Is your promise useful?"
Yan Liang's cheeks flushed red. He stammered, "The school told me to tell you that there won't be any more unpleasant incidents."
Tang Zheng waved his hand and said, "There's no need to talk about this anymore."
Yan Liang's face turned pale when he realized that he was about to return empty-handed. He looked at Qi Shaowen with pleading eyes. The school had given him an ultimatum. If he could not persuade Tang Zheng to return to school, his career as a tutor would be over. He could forget about getting promoted in the future.
That was why Yan Liang went to ask Qi Shaowen for help. Qi Shaowen was kind on the outside but soft on the inside. He was persuaded when he saw Yan Liang's pitiful face with snot and tears.
Of course, Qi Shaowen also thought that university life was very important. He felt that it was a pity to see Tang Zheng leave school so he agreed to talk to him.
"Tang Zheng, you don't have to rush to answer. Think about it first. There are still a few days before school starts. You can tell us then," said Qi Shaowen.
Looking at his eager eyes, Tang Zheng swallowed back the words of rejection. Since Professor Qi had already said so, then he would drag it out for a few days, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll reply to you after a while."
"Thank you, thank you so much. We'll wait for your good news." Yan Liang was overjoyed and moved to tears. This was the first step in a long journey. As long as he did not reject him outright, it meant that there was still a chance.
Yan Liang could almost see a bright future waving at him.
"Then I'll take my leave. I found a few nice antiques recently. Come and have a look when you have time," said Qi Shaowen.
"Stay for lunch."
"No, next time." Qi Shaowen knew that Tang Zheng and Yan Liang did not get along. The atmosphere was not harmonious.
Tang Zheng walked them to the door and waved goodbye.
Yan Liang kept nodding and bowing, showing a flattered look.
"If you go back to school, then we'll be classmates again." Ye Dingdang walked out and joked.
"Don't you want to be my classmate?"
"Suit yourself!" Ye Dingdang shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I'm just worried about those fresh flowers in school. If you go back, who knows who will fall into your evil clutches?"
Cough cough!
Tang Zheng coughed awkwardly. Was he such a playboy? He rubbed his nose resentfully and didn't continue the conversation.
"With your ability, there's no need for you to go to school at all. Your business is so big, you can definitely do something. Haven't you seen how many founders of famous companies in the world are dropouts? Isn't that cool? "Anne said.
Her study abroad was over. She didn't want Tang Zheng to go back to school. It would be a disaster for her if he stayed with Ye Dingdang every day.
Ye Dingdang's almond-shaped eyes widened as she retorted, "Who said that university is useless? You don't know how much his grandfather wants him to go to school. "
Tang Zheng's face stiffened. His heart was sad. He didn't have time to tell his grandfather about his expulsion. Ye Dingdang was right. His grandfather really wanted him to finish university. This had been his wish for many years.
If he told his grandfather about his expulsion, his grandfather would take Tang Zheng's feelings into consideration and wouldn't say anything. However, he would be very disappointed in his heart.
Thinking of this, Tang Zheng felt how selfish he was. He only considered his own feelings and ignored his grandfather's wishes.
"I haven't seen my grandfather in a long time. I want to go to the island. Moreover, school is about to start so I need to bring Shishi and the others back."
"You want to go to the island? I'll go with you. I haven't been there before. "Ye Dingdang immediately volunteered.
"I'll also go." Anne said, not to be outdone.
"None of you can go. I'll go alone and will be back soon. Moreover, it will be in a way that you will never expect." Tang Zheng said mysteriously.
"What way?"
"Let's keep you in suspense first."
"Humph, deliberately mystifying." Ye Dingdang glared at him.
Tang Zheng walked straight to the backyard. The others followed him. They wanted to see what he was going to do.
Standing in the backyard, Tang Zheng looked around. Then, he circulated his qi. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Several streams of qi shot out in all directions. In the blink of an eye, several complex patterns appeared on the ground. They flickered a few times and then disappeared.
The others stared with wide eyes but couldn't see anything.
"Tang Zheng, you're setting up an array?" Empyrean Fairy suddenly walked over. Her eyes lit up as she stared at the ground.
"You saw through it?" Tang Zheng clapped his hands. Success.
"What kind of array is this? It seems to have some skill. "Empyrean Fairy curiously asked.
"You can't recognize this array?" Tang Zheng was surprised.
"There are thousands of arrays. How can I recognize all of them?"
"Then allow me to keep you in suspense. You'll know soon enough."
Empyrean Fairy frowned. Seeing that Tang Zheng had made up his mind, she didn't ask any more questions. However, her curiosity was completely aroused by Tang Zheng. She walked around the backyard a few times but still couldn't see anything.
"I'm going to the island to pick someone up. You guys stay at home. I'll be back soon, and I'll be back in an unprecedented way." Tang Zheng smiled mysteriously.
Ye Dingdang grabbed him and threatened, "You still dare to keep us in suspense. Are you going to tell us or not? What's going on?"
Tang Zheng raised his neck like a martyr. He said vehemently, "I won't give in to force. I won't tell you."
Seeing his comical appearance, Ye Dingdang pinched him hard and said, "You're getting more and more cunning."
"You're going back to the island? Say hello to the people on the island for me. " Wu Junshan, Lan Yu, and the others walked over. Many of Wu Junshan's subordinates were still on the island, so they couldn't help but miss them.
"Don't worry. It'll be easy for you to see them in the future."
"How is that possible?" Lan Yu was in disbelief.
The capital was thousands of kilometers away from the island. One had to switch between many different modes of transportation. It was truly troublesome to make a trip back and forth. How could it be easy?
Seeing that they didn't believe him, Tang Zheng didn't point it out. He waved his hand and strode out of the villa. In the blink of an eye, he had left the capital. He then flew toward the island on his sword.
Not long after, he arrived above the vast sea. The azure sky and the seawater formed a beautiful contrast. It was exceptionally magnificent.
Looking down from above, he saw a lush island in the distance. This island was like a pearl in the middle of the vast sea.
Whoosh!
Tang Zheng turned into a streak of light and dove down.
Boom!
A ray of light shot up from the island and blocked Tang Zheng's path, causing him to be sent flying backwards.
"This is Gui Qiansui's defense." Tang Zheng secretly praised.
"Who dares to trespass into my territory?" Gui Qiansui's voice rang out. In the vast sea, it was clearly transmitted to Tang Zheng's ears.
"Gui Qiansui, it's me!" Tang Zheng didn't want to have more conflicts and directly revealed his identity.
"Upper Immortal, it's you?" Gui Qiansui cried out in surprise. The light dissipated. Tang Zheng landed on the island steadily. The Witch Tribe Elder and the others came up to greet him. The big movement just now had completely alarmed the people on the island.
"Lord Messenger, why are you here?" The Witch Tribe Elder led the Witch Tribe people to bow their heads. Tang Zheng quickly held him and said, "Elder is too polite. Everyone, get up. I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm here to visit you."
The Elder was extremely moved. "Thank you for your concern."
"Tang Zheng!" A pleasantly surprised voice came from behind, causing Tang Zheng to turn around abruptly, only to find Fang Shishi and Liu Qingmei looking at him affectionately.
"Brother!" Another petite figure came out from between the two. Like a lively little elf, she directly threw herself into Tang Zheng's arms and hooked her arms around his neck. She stared at him with wide eyes.
Tang Zheng laughed and hugged Nanna. "Nanna, you've grown taller and heavier."
This little girl was becoming more and more delicate, just like a little princess from a fairy tale. Her big black eyes turned as she pouted and said, "Big brother, are you saying that Nannan got fat?"
"Ah, how could it be?"
"Then you said I've become heavier."
"Because you've grown taller, that's why you've become heavier."
Nanna suddenly understood and smiled. "That's good. Nanna doesn't want to become fat. Nanna needs to be thin. Only then will she be beautiful."
"What does a little girl like you know about beauty?" Tang Zheng couldn't help but laugh and pinched her pink cheeks.
Fang Shishi and Liu Qingmei looked at Tang Zheng in a daze. Seeing that his embrace was completely occupied by Nanna, they couldn't snatch his embrace from a little girl. They could only helplessly look at the two of them with a smile.
"Alright, come down." Tang Zheng put down Nanna. The little girl was reluctant to part with him and pouted.
Tang Zheng stretched out his arms and tightly hugged Fang Shishi. Fang Shishi closed her eyes sweetly and snuggled against his broad chest, a sweet smile appearing on her lips.
"I've come to pick you guys up." Tang Zheng said softly.
Fang Shishi leaned her head on his shoulder and whispered, "I missed you." After saying this, she wrapped her arms around his waist.
"I missed you too." Tang Zheng hugged her tightly as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Fang Shishi was both happy and shy. She whispered, "Everyone's looking."
Tang Zheng didn't care and said, "Let them look."
Liu Qingmei's eyes were fiery as she looked at this scene with envy. If only she was in that embrace. But because of her identity, she couldn't openly lie in that warm embrace.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Tang Zheng raised his head and happened to see Liu Qingmei. His heart moved and he let go of Fang Shishi. He strode in front of Liu Qingmei and hugged her in his arms.
Liu Qingmei's body stiffened and her heart suddenly tightened as if it was about to stop beating. Her cheeks were red like fire. She didn't expect that Tang Zheng would dare to do such a thing in front of everyone. She was at a loss for a moment.
"Sister Mei, I missed you too." Tang Zheng whispered in her ear.
