Chapter 218 - 218 Chapter 218. Leave of Absence? Impossible
“Forget it; it’s not a big deal,” he said with a faint smile.
As he spoke, he handed the documents on the table to Zhuang Xian. “I’ve already settled your admission. If you want to go to the dormitory, you can ask Zhuang Hang to take you there. Block F of the girls’ dormitory belongs to you, freshmen. Someone will help you arrange it when you go there! That’s right, gather at the Academy tomorrow morning. The new students of this batch will be undergoing 20 days of military training from the school and the military.”
Bai Fan had just finished speaking, and Zhuang Xian had not even had the chance to agree when Zhuang Hang, who was standing at the side, said first.
“20 days?” he asked in surprise. “Why is the Academy’s military training so long this year? Wasn’t it only ten days last year? And from what you’re saying, it seems like this is an agreement between the Academy and the military?”
Bai Fan exaggeratedly spread out his hands and said with a similarly speechless expression, “You also think it’s unreasonable, right? I see that the brains of those old men in the Academy are getting worse yearly. They have nothing better to do!”
The whole office was filled with muffled laughter. Only a capable person like teacher Bai Fan would dare to scold the school’s decision directly.
As the instigator of all this, Zhuang Xian could only stand behind her teacher and her brother, pretending to be well-behaved, as if she didn’t know anything.
Zhuang Hang looked at Mr. Bai and smiled helplessly. Although he was speechless about the school’s arrangement, it seemed like he could only accept it.
He turned around and gave his sister a look that said, ‘Good luck. The second brother believes that you can do it.’
As he spoke, he looked back at Bai Fan and chuckled, “Thank you for today, Mr. Bai. I’ll bring my sister over to take a look at the apartment’s location first?”
Bai Fan nodded, looked at Zhuang Hang and Zhuang Xian, and replied with a smile, “Then you guys should hurry up. Any later, and the teachers will be off work!”
When Zhuang Xian heard this, she pretended to be confused and asked, “Mr. Bai, I have another question! Didn’t Zhuang Jie want to take a leave of absence just now? Is our Academy’s military training a place where you can take a leave of absence just because you want to?”
Bai Fan was stunned. Although this was the truth, it wasn’t good to say so directly. It didn’t sound good.
Bai Fan smiled and explained, “You can’t say that. The school has its own rules. The freshman military training is recorded in the student’s graduation file and semester score assessment. You can’t just say that you don’t want to participate! Of course, our school will still have to consider the student’s safety if the student has special circumstances!”
As he spoke, he saw Zhuang Xian nod, so he added, “I don’t have the authority to apply for leave for a student. At most, I’ll take her there and let her talk to the person in charge of the military training. That’s the procedure. So, what you said about taking leave whenever she wants is not quite possible!”
“Oh, I see. Then I can rest assured!” Zhuang Xian smiled obediently.
Naturally, she didn’t finish her sentence. She thought she had gone through so much trouble begging her grandfather for help. She wanted to use this military training to ‘train’ Zhuang Ye, An Ye, and Ye Xin, who she ‘valued’ and ‘favored’ the most!
The show had not even started yet. How could she allow someone to leave halfway through trying to play tricks and not attend the military training conference? Of course, that was impossible!
Fortunately, Saint Capital University had such a perverted and strict leave-taking system. Otherwise, she would have to find a way herself.
After settling the matter, Zhuang Xian and her second brother bid farewell to teacher Bai Fan. As they walked out of the Performing Arts Faculty building, they happened to bump into Ye Xin, who was walking in their direction.
It wasn’t that enemies didn’t meet!
Enemies always meet on a narrow road. Even Zhuang Xian wanted to sigh. What a coincidence.
When Ye Xin saw Zhuang Xian, she had no particular expression. In her eyes, Zhuang Xian was just the adopted daughter of an enemy company’s CEO. She might have some ability, but she never really saw Zhuang Xian as her enemy. She still felt that Zhuang Xian wasn’t qualified enough!
When Zhuang Hang saw Ye Xin, he naturally did not give her a good face. Of course, he knew that Ye Xin was Ye Zheng’s only daughter. This father and daughter pair were both competitors of the Ming En group.
