Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1046: Chapter 1046: The Consequences of Offending Big Playboy Mu Are Severe

Gong Hongru! Mu Hanyan was also a bit surprised. This Master Gong Hongru, it is said, is one of the most senior mentors of Long Yan Academy. It is said that his strength ranks among the top three in the academy. Most importantly, Gong Hongru is known for being impartial and strict. He doesn’t even give face to the Dean if it involves any corrupt practices.

This time, with him overseeing the admission selection, it’s uncertain to what extent his strictness will go.

If Tang Bufan had a shred of luck before, now, there might be no chance at all.

However, didn’t this old fellow say he was in years of seclusion and never involved in the academy’s affairs? Why is he showing up now? Mu Hanyan was a bit puzzled again.

But she didn’t doubt Zhao Sinin’s words. Seeing the serious expressions of those Long Yan Academy mentors around him, she knew he was telling the truth.

”What’s the matter, a bit worried?” Seeing Mu Hanyan’s contemplative look on her face, Zhao Sinin thought she was anxious inside, secretly proud, and continued, ”But you don’t have to worry too much. Don’t you have a spot from our Zhengying Academy in your hand? Even if Long Yan Academy doesn’t want you, our Zhengying Academy will still keep our promise and definitely take you in then.”

While saying this, Zhao Sinin wore a face of mockery, and then laughed heartily a few times.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd finally ”understood” what was going on.

It turns out Zhengying Academy had already given Mu Hanyan a spot. This is not surprising. Given the status of the Mu Family as one of the Eight Great Families of the Capital, it’s only normal for Zhengying Academy to give some face and offer them a spot.

In fact, if the supervising mentor for Long Yan Academy’s admission selection this time wasn’t Gong Hongru, who even the Dean finds troublesome, giving the Mu Family a direct entry spot wouldn’t be a big deal.

Earlier, why did Mu Hanyan speak with such confidence? Now there’s an answer. He probably thought he would definitely secure a place in Long Yan Academy, so he was preparing to give the Zhengying Academy spot to Tang Bufan.

However, now knowing that the supervisor for Long Yan Academy’s admission selection is Gong Hongru, Mu Hanyan will likely have to abandon that thought. Not to mention the Mu Family Patriarch, even if it was the emperor back then, Gong Hongru would certainly not give face.

Since Mu Hanyan isn’t favored by the Zong Family and doesn’t even have the qualification to sit in the viewing seats, his aptitude is surely very limited, and he likely won’t be selected by Long Yan Academy under the supervision of Gong Hongru. If he can’t even get into Zhengying Academy, wouldn’t it be a joke?

Of course, even if he gets into Zhengying Academy, it would still be a joke. It would be one thing if no one knew, but with Zhao Sinin publicizing the secret transaction between Zhengying Academy and the Mu Family in the great hall, for Mu Hanyan to shamelessly go to Zhengying Academy would be self-humiliating, wouldn’t it?

Those few mentors from Long Yan Academy looked at Mu Hanyan with disdain. It turns out the Mu Family had long arranged with Zhengying Academy, preparing a fallback for Mu Hanyan. Clearly, the Mu Family doesn’t hold much hope for this first playboy of the Capital either, but given he is the Family Head’s grandson, they have to save some face for him, and also for the Mu Family Zong Family, hence such a shameful secret transaction.

It seems Zhao Sinin wasn’t talking nonsense earlier. The reason why Mu Hanyan could make a name for himself so quickly and was later summoned back to the Capital by the Zong Family is because his father, the City Lord of Heishi City, abused his power, piling all the Branch Family’s resources on him.

As mentors of Long Yan Academy, they naturally looked down on someone with no natural talent and little skill who, by merely relying on family backing, achieved a small position of success, and even more so, he shamelessly flaunted such privileges and bullied others, as typical of an arrogant playboy.

The issue at Exotic Beast Valley affected Zhengying Academy’s reputation too much, so Pang Dezong went to any length to block the news. Even the people of Long Yan Academy didn’t know the inside story, nor would they know that the spot was actually earned by Mu Hanyan’s life-risking efforts.

”You’re overthinking. Just a mere Zhengying Academy, even if they begged me, I wouldn’t go.” Mu Hanyan said indifferently, ”And also, if you still act like a clown jumping around, I might lose my patience. How this spot came about, you guys know better than anyone, just eagerly offering it to me. I don’t want to bother with you because I don’t want to waste words with an idiot. As a result, you keep yammering, causing me to waste my breath. Tea!” Mu Hanyan, annoyed, turned to Zirong and others.

Zirong quickly fawned with a tea cup, Mu Hanyan drank it all in one gulp, then looked at Zhao Sinin with mockery. After hearing these words and seeing Mu Hanyan’s action, Zhao Sinin only felt his face burning hot. Humiliation, this was real humiliation!

Mu Hanyan originally planned to give the Zhengying Academy spot to Tang Bufan to fulfill his wish, so she didn’t want to fall out completely. But Zhao Sinin was relentless, speaking to this point, then she knew, not only couldn’t she go to Zhengying Academy, but neither could Tang Bufan.

Zhao Sinin was clearly set against her and saw through her intention to transfer the spot to Tang Bufan. Even if he got into Zhengying Academy, he would only face petty oppression and would never succeed. Since that’s the case, why bother saving face for them?

Once Mu Hanyan said this, the crowd’s expressions became somewhat strange. This spot, Zhengying Academy eagerly offered it to Mu Hanyan? What’s going on? And such a disdainful arrogant tone, it really made people take notice.

Zhao Sinin and Pang Dezong’s expressions had already changed. Pang Dezong glared at Zhao Sinin. Moments ago, he felt quite pleased when Zhao Sinin kept mocking Mu Hanyan, but now he felt it was a bit troublesome. Seeing Pang Dezong’s change of face, Zhao Sinin stopped talking.

Seeing Pang Dezong and Zhao Sinin’s actions, the people around felt even more complex. It seemed there was some deep feud between them.

”Just a mere third-rate academy, even if they begged me, I wouldn’t go.” Mu Hanyan threw the tea cup backward, Zirong reached out and caught it accurately. Mu Hanyan’s playboy aura was really something people didn’t quite know how to respond to. And yet, one had to admit, it suited her quite well.

What she said was the truth. If it wasn’t for the Heavenly Destiny Star Plate, she actually had little interest in Long Yan Academy, let alone Zhengying Academy, which ranked at the bottom among the Four Great Academies.

However, hearing this from other people’s ears, it was obviously disrespectful to Zhengying Academy.

Originally, Zhao Sinin didn’t dare continue mocking Mu Hanyan, afraid of really angering her and having everything exposed. But upon hearing this insulting remark from Mu Hanyan, he couldn’t stand it anymore.

”Impudent, how dare you insult my Zhengying Academy.” Zhao Sinin shouted angrily. Pang Dezong’s face also turned quite unsightly.

Not only them, but even the mentors from Holy Dragon Academy frowned. Although Zhengying Academy ranks last among the Four Great Academies, it’s still quite prestigious and not much inferior to their Holy Dragon Academy. It holds an eminent status throughout the Entire Anyun Country.

Even if Mu Hanyan is the grandson of Mu Beichen, he is, after all, just a junior. These words are simply too arrogant. Even Mu Beichen probably wouldn’t dare to be so arrogant.

Indeed, he is the Capital’s First Playboy, speaking boastfully without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth.

”Why bother wasting words with him? Let’s go.” Pang Dezong snorted coldly and said to Zhao Sinin.

”Mu Hanyan, once you are rejected by Long Yan Academy, let’s see if you still have such a big mouth,” Zhao Sinin glared at Mu Hanyan and turned to leave.

”Wait a minute,” Mu Hanyan called Zhao Sinin to a halt.

After an endless torrent of chatter, vexing Lady Mu’s mood greatly, does he think he can leave just like that? It’s not that easy.
