The Principal took out his precious tea leaves from the cabinet and brewed them. Then he sat down and looked at Min Yu. "How long are you going to stay here?"
Min Yu picked up the teacup, blew on it, and took a sip. "I don't plan on going back for now."
When the principal heard this, he smiled and said, "Old Master gave me a call two days ago."
Zhuo Yun, who was standing behind Min Yu, could not help feeling guilty at the mention of Old Master Min.
"He has nothing better to do," replied Min Yu calmly. Min Yu said calmly as he leaned back on the sofa. He looked indifferent, but at the same time, he exuded an air of nobility.
The Principal's lips twitched. Min Yu was probably the only person in the entire capital who dared to criticize Old Master Min in such a manner. He recalled his conversation with Huo Yao and asked curiously. "You seem to be close to Huo Yao from our school."
Min Yu nodded gently. "Uh huh. I used to live next door to her for a while."
Next door?
The Principal touched his chin quizzically. Wasn't Huo Yao from an ordinary family? Why was she living next door to him?
"Why did she look for you?" asked Min Yu casually as though he did not notice the Principal's quizzical look.
The Principal recalled how the Lu family had disgusted him in the morning. Then he mentioned how Huo Yao had been slandered for breaking the National Quiz Contest rules.
Min Yu remained expressionless after hearing the Principal's words. He merely tilted his head and smiled playfully. "Does the Education Association like to manipulate things internally these days?"
The Principal took a sip of tea and sighed. He said sarcastically, "There are plenty of people in the Education Association who want to take advantage of the situation. I'm used to it."
He paused. "Let's not talk about this. I'm going back to the capital next week. Is there anything you want me to bring to Old Master Min?" asked the Principal.
Min Yu looked into the distance and said lazily, "It's okay. I'm going back next week too."
The Principal looked at him in surprise.
"The Western Zhou Jade Wall is on display at the Cultural Relic Hall," said Min Yu softly.
The Principal's eyes suddenly widened. "Old Master Min is going to cause a sensation by releasing the Western Zhou Jade Wall?"
The jade-carving techniques of the Western Zhou Dynasty could be said to be the pinnacle of the ancient jade culture. Today, the outstanding jade annulus that has been passed down is even rarer and its value is immeasurable.
As for the Min family's jade annulus, it was almost perfect. Many people had set their eyes on it, but none of them had a good ending.
"So, you went back this time to personally guard the antiques in the exhibition hall?" The principal quickly understood.
"Sort of," Min Yu said calmly.
The Cultural Relic Exhibition was held once every two years. Rare cultural relics from all over the world were displayed in the exhibition hall. It was hosted by the Min family because only the Min family had the ability to preserve the exhibition hall the best.
However, no matter how tight the security was, there were still places where it was impossible to guard against. The headmaster seemed to have recalled the incident two years ago and roughly guessed the reason why the old master had displayed the Western Zhou jade.
"You want to use the Western Zhou Jade Wall to lure the snake out of its hole?"
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. His gaze was deep and cold. "No one dares to make a move on the Min family's turf and escape unscathed."
The Principal's hands trembled. Even though he was several years older than Min Yu, he could not withstand the murderous aura emanating from Min Yu.
He calmed himself down and changed the topic. "When are you going back to the capital?"
