Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again Chapter 1525: Staying On as a Faculty Member

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, news ca from the detention center that Lin Qinghuan had died at 11:00 p.m. due to total organ failure.

Before her death, she confessed all her cris.

The power of Old Thief He in the land of Huaxia had been almost completely eradicated.

What’s left was to dispatch a team of elite police officers abroad to secretly work with international organizations to arrest Old Thief He and dismantle his illegal operation base.

This was a tough and extraordinary battle, and Fong Lei, due to his extensive combat experience, was appointed as the captain of this small team and set out again.

Originally, it was to be Liang Yan’s last mission, and the organization also considered the special relationship between Fong Lei and Liang Yan, and initially planned to have her formally return and restore her open identity after the mission was completed.

However, Liang Yan refused.

Liang Yan’s reason was that she was the most familiar with everything about Old Thief He, and if she participated in the battle, it would minimize the losses and casualties on their side.

Fong Lei initially disagreed, but after much consideration, he nodded and agreed, so the lovers once again headed to the most dangerous battlefield side by side.

Before they left, they ca to bid farewell to Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize.

Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize were stunned upon hearing the news because this had never happened in their previous lives. However, they soon ca to terms with it, realizing that this world was a new one, and everything was a new beginning.

It was ti to stop thinking about the past life.

It was ti to let go.

This was the unanimous thought of Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize.

And Gu Qiaoqiao knew that their journey was indeed perilous. Just in ti, she had learned a new talisman from Gu Junbai. If the person casting the spell had strong cultivation and spiritual power, the protection could last for three years.

Within three years, the mission should be completed by then.

Moreover, this not only protected the person under the spell but also helped increase their combat power and spiritual power. In other words, it was a life-saving talisman specially designed for ordinary people.

Originally, Gu Qiaoqiao learned it for Qin Yize, but Gu Junbai told her that now Qin Yize was also a mber of the Mystic Sect. He entered the Mystic Sect through his combat power and rit Light, which was, of course, largely thanks to Gu Qiaoqiao.

So, there was no need to use such a talisman on Qin Yize.

However, Gu Qiaoqiao still learned it, and today it proved useful.

So, with a slight movent of her finger, Gu Qiaoqiao quietly completed two talismans. Then, she silently placed them onto Fong Lei and Liang Yan.

Fong Lei and Liang Yan, not being mbers of the Mystic Sect, naturally didn’t feel any changes, but they did feel a sense of joy sitting at Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao’s ho, enjoying the atmosphere of the house.

It was a feeling that could only be felt rather than expressed.

However, Qin Yize glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao. Recently, especially after waking up from a coma, he found his senses much sharper than before. For instance, at Gu Garden, he could imdiately sense sothing different about Gu Junbai, Xiao Wen, and Ling Nan.

And because Qiaoqiao was his close companion, the feeling had faded a bit due to overfamiliarity, but today he felt Qiaoqiao must have done sothing, undoubtedly casting protective talismans on them.

And this was sothing that Fong Lei and Liang Yan would never know about.

Without a sound, his Qiaoqiao had done so many good deeds, but no one knew.

Although it was a pity, it was also a way to protect Qiaoqiao.

Qin Yize looked at Fong Lei and sincerely said, "Brother Fong, this mission is very dangerous, but I hope both you and Sister Yan can return safely. Qiaoqiao and I will be waiting in the Imperial Capital for news of your triumphant return."

Fong Lei nodded, and his voice was equally serious, "Ah Ze, Qiaoqiao, Yanzi and I will do our utmost to protect ourselves."

Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao watched the two leave. Gu Qiaoqiao rembered the complete retreat of Captain Su in Sky Sea City last ti. She looked at Qin Yize, "Ah Ze, I believe the two of them will definitely co back safely."

Gu Qiaoqiao now had great confidence in her abilities.

Qin Yize gently nodded without speaking, but instead squeezed Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, and everything was said in silence.

Soon, ti moved into March, marking Gu Qiaoqiao’s last sester at the Art Academy.

The vice dean of the Art Academy talked to Gu Qiaoqiao, hoping she could stay on as a teacher. The Art Academy had a Craft Branch, and they planned to introduce a new subject this fall: Traditional Carving, incorporating local intangible cultural heritage traditional wood and stone carving into the classroom, allowing students to experience the charm of intangible cultural heritage firsthand, thereby helping to better develop traditional craftsmanship so that it can be passed down and endure for a long ti.

Gu Qiaoqiao thought about it and readily agreed.

However, since she would soon be gradually taking over the businesses under the Old Patriarch, it would be impossible for her to be at school every day. The vice dean had anticipated this and told Gu Qiaoqiao that coming once a month for guidance would suffice, as they would hire professional craft teachers to teach.

After all, it wasn’t sothing one person could accomplish alone.

So, this matter was settled.

For Gu Qiaoqiao’s new role, others had no objections, but Shen Manru and Lian Yuhong especially liked it. Surprisingly, these two won, with their vastly different cultural backgrounds, shared the sa view: it was tough for a girl to run a business and take over the Old Patriarch’s industry. Being a university professor, even if it was as a special-appointed one, offered more free ti, with sumr and winter vacations, making it the best job for a girl.

The various thoughts of different people did not affect Gu Qiaoqiao’s path forward. Recently, she had been by Gu Junbai’s side, and in leisure monts, she could visit the Small World, where it was like spring all year round with flowers blooming.

And although it was spring in the Imperial Capital now, it still looked desolate, unlike the south. Gu Qiaoqiao rembered that in Jiangnan, the plum blossoms would have already ended by now, but the peach blossoms were about to bloom, especially with magnolias in full bloom.

Gu Qiaoqiao was very fond of magnolias, even considering buying a courtyard in Jiangnan, planting magnolia trees all around so that when March arrived, the large pink and white blossoms would quietly bloom, perfectly exemplifying the phrase ’a tree full of flowers.’

These flowers, simple and pure, blood at the end of winter and the beginning of spring. The white petals were crystal-clear, while the purple ones were tender and rosy, appearing light and beautiful under the spring sunlight.
