Little Family Treasure of the Apocalyptic Boss - Ch 67

Chapter 67: Enrollment

After settling into their own mansion, Ye Ze and the little snake sub-beast moved out of the inn.

The little snake sub-beast cheerfully piled his snake plushies into the room, cheered, and jumped into the pile for a roll. Seeing the plushies rolling around, he happily moved to the wardrobe, humming a tune while putting away clothes.

Several small animals followed him, nodding secretly at the arrangement of the room.

Only such style was worthy of the cub.

Our cub deserves the best in the world!

Then, they turned around and presented various exotic flowers, plants, and precious stones they had collected to Ye Ze. It was a signal that Ye Ze could leave to take care of things.

Ye Ze twitched his mouth. Seeing that these were all cultivation resources that the little snake sub-beast could use, he accepted everything.

At the same time Ye Ze and the little snake sub-beast officially settled down, the Dragon Palace Academy finally ended its freshman registration period. The most talented students from all over the wilderness world gathered here and would start their studies today.

Ye Ze accompanied the little snake sub-beast to the school gate, touched their head, and said, “Go on, it’s your first day of school, don’t be late. If you encounter something you don’t understand, ask the teacher. If you run into trouble, find Ming Ya and Ling Jue. Don’t keep it to yourself, understand?”

“Mm-hmm.” With a small backpack on his back, the little snake sub-beast followed Ye Ze’s actions and nodded obediently. However, his eyes had already rolled to the side, eagerly staring at the entrance to the school.

“Alright, I won’t delay you any longer.” Seeing that he couldn’t wait to leave, Ye Ze felt both amused and exasperated. He flicked the little snake sub-beast’s forehead with his finger, instructing, “I’ll go discuss the specific planning of the fields with the city lord later, and I’ll come to pick you up tonight. Don’t wander around alone, understand?”

“I got it! Bye, Ye Zi~!”

Ye Ze couldn’t help but shake his head and smile. After the little snake sub-beast’s cheerful figure disappeared into the crowd, he turned around and walked away. However, he didn’t head towards the city lord’s mansion but towards a small tavern next to the academy.

“To be able to arrange such a big deal in such a chaotic place, only you, Old Ye, could do it.” In the private room of the tavern, Jiang He teased as Ye Ze walked in.

“It’s precisely because it’s an important deal that we have to meet here.” Ye Ze shrugged innocently, sat down on the chair opposite Jiang He, took a sip from the large wooden cup of wine, and raised an eyebrow with a smile. “Do you think anyone would believe that we’re discussing important matters here?”

Jiang He couldn’t help but laugh at his teasing. “Alright, alright, you win.” Considering the matter with An Nuo and also having to consider the attitude of His Majesty, he couldn’t afford to delay. “You quickly go over the details of these matters, and then we’ll check them again. Otherwise, if we don’t enjoy this wine fully, I’ll mark it down against you.”

“Don’t worry. Knowing your taste, I specially prepared this for you.” Ye Ze brought out the wine barrel he purchased from the dimensional mall and placed it on the table. As soon as he lifted the lid, the room was filled with the fragrance of wine.

Jiang He sniffed intoxicatedly and gave Ye Ze a thumbs-up.

— This was something he learned from Ming Ya and the others when he attended a banquet at Ye’s mansion. Having acquired the new knowledge discussed by the kids, he felt several times younger.

Look, now he could calmly handle the affection being displayed by the young people in front of him and even crack a joke.

The little snake sub-beast was having a great time at school.

Everyone was very friendly to him, and he also learned a lot of useful knowledge he didn’t know before.

Studying was just as fulfilling as working at home!

The tip of the little snake sub-beast’s tail perked up, swaying back and forth. Then suddenly, it stopped, and it plopped down on the ground with a smack.

Hmm. He might have to deal with a certain super bad sub-beast race who always came to bother Ming Ya.

“I heard you moved out of the inn. What’s wrong, feeling proud now? Can’t afford to stay inside the city anymore? It must take a lot of time to come to the academy so early in the morning.”

The little snake sub-beast turned around, looking at the arrogant Qinglan with a string of question marks floating above his head.

Ming Ya stepped forward, facing the little snake sub-beast, and rolled his eyes at Qinglan, speechless.

Disdainful of the simplicity of the accommodations at Nuo Nuo’s home?

Huh! Wait until you see where Nuo Nuo lives, then you probably won’t say that.

Oh, he forgot, this person probably didn’t qualify to enter Nuo Nuo’s house. Indeed, it was his ability to say such things.

“Upper-tier talents kneel before you, top-tier talents you dare provoke.” Ming Ya’s face showed sarcasm. “What, aren’t you afraid of being punished by your family?”

“But Nuo Nuo is different. His partner only stands by him. At that time, who will be the one to suffer, tsk tsk, any sensible person would know.”

With a bang, the cheeks of the little snake sub-beast, who had been pulled forward, turned red. He wished they could dig a hole on the spot and bury himself.

So, so embarrassing!

Qinglan’s face darkened, feeling extremely irritated towards Ming Ya’s words. Looking at the little snake sub-beast beside him, who didn’t even care about him, made him even more furious.

“Don’t worry about that.” Qinglan snorted coldly. “Just because you have top-tier talent doesn’t mean you’re great and can look down on everyone. Above that, there are plenty of people to teach you a lesson!”

The little snake sub-beast looked left and right, realizing belatedly that the person Qinglan was describing as arrogant and bullying was himself.

“?” The question mark hovering over the little snake sub-beast’s head came crashing down, burying him.

Qinglan stared at the little snake sub-beast, confirming that he understood the situation. He chuckled inwardly at the fool, then turned and left.

His task was already completed. The follow-up matters should be handled by the An family, and he couldn’t be bothered to get involved further.

“Nuo Nuo saw it! At that time, he was staring with his eyes wide open. Although he didn’t say anything, he must have been saying that Nuo Nuo is so stupid and doesn’t know how to argue with him. Super bad!”

The little snake sub-beast danced around, imitating Qinglan’s expression from earlier, clapping his tail tip on the ground.

Originally, it was quite a resentful incident, but being retold by the little snake sub-beast, honestly, Ye Ze felt more inclined to laugh.

Ye Ze suppressed the smile that was about to overflow from his lips and listened quietly to the little snake sub-beast’s sulky recounting, silently making another mental note for An Shu.

The main force offending An Shu at the auction wasn’t him.

If someone wanted to use the little snake sub-beast to probe his depths and seek revenge, they should also consider whether they were qualified enough.

“It’s okay, he just doesn’t know enough,” Ye Ze pinched the little snake sub-beast’s puffed-up cheek, “We, Nuo Nuo, come and go by the carriage, from outside the city. It’s faster than him coming from inside the city to school.”

That’s right.

His Nuo Nuo was the first, and Nuo Nuo’s magical items were the second! Only the idiots who thought Ye Ze was bad were the real fools!

The little snake sub-beast nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Ye Ze softened his demeanor and arranged with a smile, “Tomorrow, I’ll have the carriage pick up Nuo Nuo for school and bring Ming Ya and them along. Later on, when Nuo Nuo has more friends, the journey to school will be lively. Naturally, he’ll know who’s more powerful.”

…Huh? What does this have to do with being powerful?

The little snake sub-beast’s head was blank, not understanding.

“Nuo Nuo doesn’t need to understand these things,” Ye Ze chuckled lightly, rubbing the soft head of the little snake sub-beast in his palm, “Nuo Nuo just needs to know that from now on, the stupid bad guys won’t come to disturb Nuo Nuo’s studies.”

The little snake sub-beast was lulled into comfort by him, subconsciously rubbing against Ye Ze’s palm and revealing a docile smile.

Ye Ze leaned down and dropped a gentle kiss on the little snake sub-beast’s fluttering eyelids. The slightly lowered eyelashes perfectly blocked the dim light in his eyes.

Originally, he had planned to take it slow until the cotton field grew. Now, it seemed that some people were too eager to seek destruction.

Well, he didn’t mind moving the timeline up a bit.
