Zither Emperor Chapter 195 Chapter 54 Return to Milan Part 1

195: Chapter 54 Return to Milan (Part 1) 195: Chapter 54 Return to Milan (Part 1) Ye Yinzhu was not finished with his lunch when suddenly, an angry voice came from outside the dormitory, “Ye Yinzhu, you little stinker, you’re back and didn’t report to me.

Wanting to get yourself killed, are you?”

Ye Yinzhu was stunned for a moment, and a piece of green vegetable slipped from his mouth, but a smile flashed in his eyes.

He hurriedly put down his cutlery and ran to open the door.

As expected, it was Director Nia from the Divine Music Department.

Today, Nia was dressed in a dark green magic robe, standing outside the dormitory door, fuming with anger.

Yet, when she saw Ye Yinzhu, just like Dean Fergerson, she scrutinized him from head to toe, again and again, as if afraid that he might have lost something.

“Granny Nia, please e in.”

“e in my foot.

You go to the dean as soon as you’re back, what, am I not as important as Dean Fergerson in your heart?” Nia’s fiery temper was unchangeable.

“Uh…, no, of course not.

I was just about to finish lunch and then see you, right?

Please, e in first.” Ye Yinzhu hastily let Nia into the room.

Nia huffed and puffed as she walked in, accepted Sura’s bow, and said, “You little stinker, you’ve finally e back.

If you hadn’t, I might have really gone up to Silver Dragon City to demand your return.” As she said this, she couldn’t help but snicker, her eyes alight with excitement instead of anger.

“Granny Nia, have you eaten yet?

Would you like to join me for some food?” Ye Yinzhu asked tentatively.

Although Nia was already laughing, he still erred on the side of caution, wary that the director might erupt again.

Nia glanced at the nearly swept-clean dishes on the table and said tersely, “No need, you want me to eat your leftovers?

I’ve already eaten.

It’s good that you’re back.

Just finish your meal.

Rest today, and let’s do this: celebrate tonight at the Golden Life Restaurant in Milan City.

As for who will attend, it will just be us from the Divine Music Department, oh, and your roommate should e too.

Yinzhu, you didn’t suffer in Silver Dragon City, did you?”

Ye Yinzhu quickly shook his head, somewhat bewildered, “Granny Nia, what’s Golden Life?”

Nia snorted, “You’ve been in Milan for some time, yet you don’t know about the Golden Life Restaurant in Milan City.

It’s just a restaurant.

The fact that you didn’t report to me first means you’re treating tonight.

Don’t worry about the money; we’ll deduct it from your assistant’s pay.”

“Uh…, Granny Nia, this…”

“What this and that.

I’m leaving.

We’ll talk more tonight.

Oh, and the cultivation method you proposed last time is quite effective, but only for a few people.

It seems a good cultivation method also needs a bit of prehension and opportunity.” Saying so, Nia turned and walked out of the dormitory, the smile clearly visible in her eyes.

After seeing Nia off, Ye Yinzhu didn’t waste Sura’s hard work and devoured the remaining food like a whirlwind.

“Sura, do you know where the Golden Life is?”

Sura nodded and said, “Of course, I know.”

“Is it expensive?”

Sura smiled bitterly, “For Director Nina, I suppose it’s not, but for you, it might mean selling yourself.

Though I’ve never been there, I’m guessing their stuff won’t be any cheaper than the Floating Orchid Villa back in the day.”

“I, I, I am broke…”

…

“What, what did you say?

He’s back?

He’s really back?” Haiyang’s body shook uncontrollably, tears streaming down uncontrollably, unable to contain her excitement.

Like any other student, Haiyang was wearing the uniform of the Milan Magic Martial Academy, but her face was partly covered with a white veil, hiding everything below her eyes, which was now soaked with tears.

Xiang Luan smiled and said, “Would I lie to you?

Aunt just told me about it.

Look at you, getting all worked up over your lover’s return.

That heartless Ye Yinzhu, ing back without even bothering to let us know.

I’ll see how I teach him a lesson tonight.”

“He must be tired.

He’s been gone for over a month; he needs some rest after returning!” Although Haiyang’s voice was choked with sobs, she didn’t forget to defend Ye Yinzhu.

Xiang Luan looked at her best friend with amusement, “Fool, you’re beyond salvation.

You wouldn’t have fallen for this guy just because you’re grateful, would you?”

Haiyang wiped away her tears, “No, of course not.

Sister Xiang Luan, do you remember the look in Yin Zhu’s eyes the first time he saw my face?

Other men, when they see my true appearance, either shun me like snakes and scorpions or disdain me with disgust.

Only he, only he showed pity when he saw my face.

At that time, in his eyes, I was probably just a classmate.

But he tried everything to help me get treatment.

It was he who gave me a new life, gave me everything I have now.

It’s not his strength I’m attracted to, nor his handsome appearance, but his kindness from the bottom of his heart and his pure heart.”

“So cheesy, I can’t take it.

No wonder they say a woman in love is beyond reason.

I bet you think everything about Ye Yinzhu is great.

You little fool, don’t end up being taken advantage of.

Since you’ve decided it’s him, you have to let him know!

Otherwise, if someone else snatches him away, you’ll have nowhere to cry.

That kid is clueless about matters between men and women.

I can’t help but laugh when I think of his silly look.

If you’re expecting him to confess to you, I think it’s hopeless.”

The excited tears in Haiyang’s eyes had disappeared, and although her face was veiled, the skin showing had turned a rosy red, “Sister Xiang Luan, don’t talk nonsense.

We are still young.”

Xiang Luan suddenly pinched Haiyang’s ample chest and ran away laughing, “Young?

Where are you young?

My dear sister, you snooze, you lose.

See what you will do about it.

Maybe someday, if I’m in a good mood, I’ll snatch your Yin Zhu away.”

Left feeling weak all over from Xiang Luan’s pinch, Haiyang chased after her in annoyance, and the two girls started to romp around the dormitory.

Amid the laughter, Xiang Luan couldn’t help but sigh inwardly; it had been over a month, and this was the first time Haiyang seemed truly happy.

Ye Yinzhu, you’d better not let her down!

Only Xiang Luan truly understood how fragile Haiyang felt inside after living in the shadow of her appearance all her life.

“Okay, okay, no more messing around.” Haiyang caught Xiang Luan’s mischievous hand, gasping for breath as she stood up from the sofa.

“Where are you going?” asked Xiang Luan curiously.

A gentle light shone in Haiyang’s eyes, “I need to get ready.

Tonight, I hope he sees the best of me.”

Xiang Luan feigned fainting, “You’re hopeless.”

…

After more than a month, Ye Yinzhu finally found peace in body and mind.

He didn’t cultivate but went back to his bedroom and had a good sleep.

After finishing lunch at midday, he actually slept until dusk.

If Sura hadn’t woken him up, he might have slept straight through to the next morning.

Sura had changed into a black martial garb.

Although he was a bit slender pared to Ye Yinzhu, his height of over 1.7 meters was quite decent.

Assassins couldn’t be too tall, and perhaps it was because of Ye Yinzhu’s return, but Sura seemed much rosier in plexion at the moment.

It was just that his clothes were of ordinary quality, clearly cheap goods.

Ye Yinzhu freshened up briefly, and the two walked out of the dormitory.

Ye Yinzhu wanted to find Nina and go together, but Sura told him Director Nina and the others had already gone ahead.

After leaving the academy, the two spread out their bodies, with Douqi covering their entire bodies.

After his Zhu Douqi advanced to Fifth Rank Yellow Bamboo, Ye Yinzhu could finally keep up with Sura’s pace, though just barely.

He didn’t understand why Sura’s Douqi was only Green rank, yet he was so fast.

As twilight approached, Milan City was at its most bustling and lively.

Tiny lights filled the huge city, creating a scene of prosperity everywhere.

Some people on the streets were heading home to rest after a day of work, while many more were seeking the rich nightlife.

The bustling scene, with restaurants full of guests, showed just how prosperous and peaceful the Milan Empire was, leading to its rapid economic development.

Of course, this was inseparable from Emperor Silvio’s assiduous governance.

Walking on the street, one could frequently hear people greet each other with a “Praise Falan,” but how could these ordinary citizens know that the main reason the powerful Milan Empire couldn’t expand was the existence of Falan.

The Golden Life Restaurant was not hidden in a quiet corner of Milan City like the Floating Orchid Villa once was.

As the best restaurant in Milan City, it was located in the busiest part of Milan Royal Street.

This area was worth its weight in gold.

What characterized this street was that all the shops on it were directly under the control of the Milan Imperial Family.

After ascending to the throne, one of Emperor Silvio’s first actions was to establish this prosperous Royal Street and managed it entirely by royal family members.

This move had been opposed by many ministers at the time.

Since its establishment, Emperor Silvio made a shocking decision: all the royal expenses would no longer be taken from the national treasury.

Instead, they would all e from the businesses on this street.

This attests to how prosperous the street must be to cover the astronomical annual expenses of the Royal Family!

The Golden Life was the only restaurant on Milan Royal Street, but it occupied one-third of the street’s side.

The scale of the restaurant was large enough to rival a palace.

Being able to dine here was definitely a symbol of status.

Although Emperor Silvio was close to the mon people, this was the only restaurant in Milan City that exclusively served nobles.

Without a noble title, no matter how rich one was, they couldn’t even enter to drink a cup of water.

Of course, the food here was undoubtedly the most delicious in Milan City.

As for the price, as its name suggests, Golden Life demanded payments in gold coins.

It was rumored that the yearly revenue from the Golden Life alone was enough to cover all the royal expenditures.

It could be regarded as the pinnacle of luxury.
