It’s only now that you have e back.”

Qin Shang had already prepared his explanation, “I went to Qin City!

That’s my territory, I should at least check on it.

I didn’t even have time to sit down when I got back before I came to see you.

Granny Nina, please don’t be mad, it would be troublesome if you hurt yourself from anger.”

Nina let go of Qin Shang’s ear and huffed, “You still know how to care about me?

Hmph, going to Qin City is fine.

And you even ran off with Haiyang.

Xi Duofu came to me especially to ask about Haiyang’s whereabouts.

I knew it was your doing.”

“Uh…

Granny, ‘ran off’ isn’t the right description.

We just went to take a look together.

And there were others too.” Qin Shang cautiously said.

When Nina heard Qin Shang call her ‘Granny’ directly, skipping her name, the anger on her face miraculously dissolved, and her cheeks even flushed a little, “You little troublemaker, always causing me problems.

It’s over since you’re back, but next time you want to go somewhere, you must report to me in advance, got it?”

“Yes, for sure,” Qin Shang said with a wry smile.

Nina revealed a trace of resentment, “Silvio, that silly bugger, even made Konya City your territory.

That broken place doesn’t even have a clear mark on the map.

It’s utterly barren.

I really don’t know what he was thinking.

Later I’ll go find him and have him switch your territory.”

“No, Granny!” Qin Shang, having tasted the sweetness of calling her ‘Granny,’ and observing her changes, immediately switched pletely, “Granny, Qin City is quite good.

I like the environment there.

It’s peaceful and elegant.

Besides, Uncle Silvio has even exempted me from all taxes over there.”

Nina said irritably, “Just call him whatever you want.

He’s my brother; you call him uncle, but you call me granny.

This kinship is a mess.”

Qin Shang helplessly said, “Then what should I call you?

It’s just that you are much older than Uncle Silvio.

I call Xiang Luan Senior Sister, I can’t possibly call her father ‘grandfather,’ can I?”

Nina’s face revealed a slight smile, “Alright, call me whatever you want.

Just don’t change how you address me.

Speaking of Xiang Luan, you better be careful, boy.

You took Haiyang away but didn’t take her out to play; that girl sure is holding a grudge.

Who knows how she might get back at you.”

Qin Shang said with a bitter smile, “It’s not that I didn’t want to take her, but she’s the Imperial Princess; how could she simply leave the capital?

I really don’t want to be hunted down by Uncle Silvio’s men.” Xiang Luan definitely couldn’t be taken with him, not to mention the fact that the state of construction in Qin City mustn’t be known to the princess, and the things he and Zi experienced in the Northernmost Wilderness as well as their own secrets were something she must never know.

This involved the safety of many people.

Even though Qin Shang trusted Xiang Luan, her identity was ultimately sensitive.

Nina pointed to a sofa nearby, “Sit down, you don’t look at all like you’ve just traveled a long way.

Hey, are you very hot?

Why are you sweating?”

He couldn’t help but feel hot.

The clothes Qin Shang was wearing now were suited for autumn, perfect for the climate around Qin City.

Having been startled by Nina like that, it was natural for him to sweat.

“It’s fine.” Qin Shang sat on the sofa, “Granny, I came to see you today because I have something to ask.

The enrolment of new students in our Divine Music Department isn’t over yet, is it?”

As soon as Qin Shang mentioned the enrollment of new students, Nina’s smile deepened, and she nodded, “It’s not over yet.

Regarding our Divine Music Department’s new students, it was your contribution.

Do you know how many people have applied for our department this time?”

Qin Shang shook his head blankly.

Nina chuckled and said, “Well over twelve hundred, more than ten times last year.

It’s equivalent to the number of applicants for a major Magic department.

All thanks to you.

You’ve returned just in time.

Tomorrow is the last day of enrollment, followed by the tests for the new students.

Last year it was Haiyang, this year it will be you.

You will screen these new students to see if they meet the qualifications for Divine Music Master training.

Oh, and because of you, one third of the students who applied for our department this time are males.

It’s unbelievable.

It seems that the spring for our Divine Music Masters has e.”

Qin Shang said, “Assessing the students won’t be a problem.

But, Granny, could I ask for a favor?”

“A favor?” Nina was startled and looked at Qin Shang, not understanding his meaning.

Qin Shang said, “It’s like this.

I have a few friends who also want to attend classes in our Divine Music Department.

I want to help them get in through the back door.”

Nina frowned and said, “Are their qualifications good?

What’s your relationship with them?

When did you make friends outside?”

Ye Yinzhu explained, “I just met them on my recent outing.

There’s absolutely no issue with their talent.

They’re at the initial to middle stages of the Initial Red rank right now.

But their potential for development is huge; I have confidence that they can advance to around the Yellow rank in their first year.

I’m sure they can pass the examination.

The main reason I’m asking you for a favor behind the scenes is that they have no money.

Look, is it possible to deduct the amount from my future salary to let them start attending classes?

Moreover, in our Divine Music Department’s Treasure Hall, there are many instruments, and they still don’t have suitable ones of their own.

I am thinking of selecting some from the treasure hall for them.

Of course, I shan’t ask for them for nothing.

Whatever the cost, I will certainly repay you in the future.”

Nina looked at Ye Yinzhu with some curiosity.

She was well aware of the depth of Ye Yinzhu’s acplishments in Zither Magic, and the fact that he remended his friends so highly suggested their remarkable talent.

As the Princess of the Milan Empire, the hidden owner behind the Gold lifestyle brand, and the Director of the Divine Sound Department of the Milan Magic Martial Arts Academy, she didn’t really care much about money.

“Nepotism, hm!

Our Divine Music Department has no such precedent,” Nina said, purposefully making things difficult.

“But without instruments, they can’t cultivate properly.

Granny, please make an exception,” Ye Yinzhu could only plead with Nina.

It wasn’t that he was incapable of obtaining instruments and tuition fees, but there simply wasn’t enough time for him to raise the money.

Nina walked to the side and sat down, leisurely taking a sip of tea, “Agreeing to your request is no big deal for me as the department head.”

“Thank you very much,” Ye Yinzhu said jubilantly.

“Don’t be too quick to rejoice.

I have my conditions,” Nina said.

Her temperament was not at all as impetuous as it seemed on the surface.

Otherwise, how could she have helped her brother Silvio Berlusconi develop the Royal Avenue with such foresight?

“Naturally, I can agree, but you also have to do me a favor.”

Ye Yinzhu asked, “Is there anything else I can help you with?”

Nina nodded, “This is the second year you’ve been at the academy.

I won’t make it too hard for you.

You just have to bring Qin Shang to see me before you graduate.

That’s my condition.”

“This…” Ye Yinzhu hesitated, knowing there had to be a special emotional entanglement between Nina and Qin Shang, but agreeing to Nina’s request seemed somewhat improper.

“What ‘this’ are you talking about?

Either agree or we part ways right now,” Nina’s mood seemed to sour, “You’ve called me ‘Granny’ so many times, aren’t you willing to help your granny meet that bastard grandfather of yours even once?

I am already old, without many demands.

I simply hope to see him again.” Her eyes reddened as she spoke, her aged hands trembling slightly.

“Alright, I agree, Granny,” seeing Nina’s sadness, Ye Yinzhu couldn’t bear to refuse.

Nina looked at him excitedly, “Good, good.

Bring your friends over when the freshman examination is over.

I’ll select the most suitable instruments for them.

As for their names, give me the list.

No matter how they do in the exam, I will allow them to enroll.”

After receiving Nina’s promise, Ye Yinzhu left her place immediately, not for any other reason than because it was getting too hot.

Douqi could adjust temperature, but after sweating, his skin felt sticky, which was unfortable.

After bidding farewell to Ye Yinzhu, the sadness in Nina’s eyes faded, and she smiled wryly, “Silly boy, still too naive.

Qin Shang, you old bastard.

Just let me lay eyes on you, hmph.” Her eyes truly reddened this time.

Ye Yinzhu had planned to visit Nina first and then his teacher, Fergerson.

However, due to sweating, he decided to return to the dormitory to bathe and take off his underwear.

In such temperatures, the Moon God’s Protection was sufficient.

It was only a short walk from Nina’s to his dormitory.

Pushing open the door, Ye Yinzhu found no sign of Sura.

It was undeniable, Sura had a remarkable talent for housework.

In just a short time, the room’s dust had vanished.

The fresh, clean scent that filled the tidy room made Ye Yinzhu feel genuinely fortable.

After dismissing the Moon God’s Protection, Ye Yinzhu, in his underwear, headed towards the bathroom.

When he arrived at the door, he heard the sound of splashing water and chuckled inwardly—what a perfect coincidence!

Just as he wanted to shower, Sura had already taken the initiative.

It was suffocating in the heat, so even using a towel to wipe his face would be nice.

The rooms in the dormitory were unlocked, and Ye Yinzhu casually pushed open the bathroom door.

Hot steam rolled out to meet him.

Through the hazy mist, Ye Yinzhu saw something that left him utterly dumbfounded.
