Chapter 19 My Brother-in-Law from the Past
Chapter 19 My Brother-in-Law from the Past
Xu Qianyan's eyes kept scanning the wall.
This five-meter-high wall of honor is almost entirely filled with images of Lu Wuxin.
Even the trophies and medals displayed in the closet were all won by him for Nanjing University.
On this wall of honor, the young Lu Wuxin was so spirited and full of vigor, with a vitality completely different from what he has now.
...This also overlaps with Xu Qianyan's handsome face when he was a child.
That wasn't my imagination, nor was it a mistake in my memory.
That was indeed my former brother-in-law...
"The fastest person to achieve an A-level promotion in Nanjing University's history... The first S-level student in Nanjing University's history... The pillar of Nanjing University's Supernatural Abilities Department..."
This simple title reveals a completely different side of Lu Wuxin.
This is a label that is completely impossible to imagine on Lu Wuxin, who now has a full beard and is unkempt.
Xu Qianyan simply couldn't believe it. What had happened to this once brilliant boy in the past few years that made him so dejected?
Of course, my sister's situation was one reason.
But... what happened to my sister only occurred five years ago.
At that time, I was already 13 years old, not a little kid anymore, so how could my memories be so biased?
Even though I didn't have much contact with him and didn't know the true situation of Wuxin... back then, Wuxin was already in a similar state of despair as he is now...
His sister's situation only worsened his condition, making him delirious and acting like a mental patient...
The girl became increasingly curious about Lu Wuxin's past.
However, she suddenly remembered an embarrassing thing.
When she first came to the school, she complained that Lu Wuxin wouldn't get into Nanjing University...
It turns out that he was not only a student at Nanjing University, but also a former pride of the university...
Nancheng University is the most prestigious university in Nancheng, ranking among the top ten in the country...
The superpowered ability category could even rank among the top five in the country...
She subconsciously felt that it was normal for the dejected Lu Wuxin not to get into such a prestigious university...
The girl's face flushed red with embarrassment once again.
"You shameless scoundrel, why didn't you say anything before... I think you're just deliberately trying to make a fool of me..."
Just as she was talking to herself, Teacher Zhao Qin suddenly walked into the corner.
The girl was even more embarrassed, her ears turned bright red, and she quickly lowered her head.
"How about it? Looking at these outstanding alumni, do you feel inspired?!" Zhao Qin said with a smile.
"Especially this Lu Wuxin, he's the one who single-handedly propelled Nanjing University's Department of Supernatural Abilities to prominence ten years ago!"
"With him as the dividing line, the ability users before and after him are practically two different things!"
"Before him, there was a saying circulating throughout the country: 'Nancheng University is only good for studying; as for superpowers and such, forget about it!' He changed that situation in one fell swoop!"
"Unfortunately, he had just graduated while I had just enrolled, so I didn't have many opportunities to meet him in person."
Looking at Zhao Qin's admiring expression, Xu Qianyan felt a sense of pride.
After all, he's her brother-in-law.
Suddenly, Zhao Qin pointed to a photograph behind the corner of the closet.
Xu Qianyan didn't see it because the trophy blocked her view from the angle.
"This is alumnus Lu and his girlfriend. They were the two of them who won Nanjing University's first supernatural ability competition. I watched that competition on TV; it was absolutely amazing!"
Xu Qianyan was stunned for a moment.
She slowly walked around the trophy and stepped into the group photo of the five-person team.
The one standing in the center holding the trophy is Lu Wuxin.
The girl standing next to him, smiling brightly, was his older sister, Xu Yiyan.
to be frank.
Because of the age gap, she didn't know much about her older sister's past, and because her sister died young, she never had the chance to hear her sister boast...
Now, learning about her sister's past for the first time, the girl was so moved she wanted to cry.
Zhao Qin stroked her chin and carefully examined Xu Yiyan's photo.
"Strange... I hadn't noticed before, but why does this person look so much like you?"
"Xu Yiyan...Xu Qianyan...?"
"This is your sister?!"
The girl wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded.
"Wow, although Senior Xu's talent can't compare to Lu Wuxin's, she's still a top-notch genius!"
"Your talent is no less than hers!"
"The results of Nanjing University's Department of Extraordinary Abilities haven't been ideal these past two years, so we're counting on you to revitalize it! Maybe you can even recreate your sister's past glory!"
Zhao Qin changed the subject, revealing an extremely curious expression.
"By the way, your sister and this fellow alumnus Lu... in the end...?"
"They got married."
Xu Qianyan immediately revealed a cold expression.
This seems to be a declaration of the brother-in-law's sovereignty.
"Oh...I see..." Zhao Qin was also somewhat disappointed.
"Since he's your brother-in-law... then I'll have the chance to meet him sometime... hahaha, it's like making up for past regrets..."
Zhao Qin scratched her head and turned to leave.
"Let's go, let's go find the principal. He wants to see for himself if you're qualified for the scholarship."
Xu Qianyan puffed out her cheeks behind her.
Although she didn't know why, she started to dislike this Teacher Zhao!
……
After a while.
Urged by Zhao Qin, Xu Qianyan walked into the principal's office alone.
The principal's office was dimly lit and decorated in a very unique style, giving it a Western aristocratic feel.
The air still smelled of air freshener.
at this time.
A woman with long, flowing hair was sitting behind a desk, her back to the light from the window.
"Xu Qianyan".
"The younger sister of Xu Yiyan, once the most outstanding student at Nanjing University."
"According to Zhao Qin, you've already advanced to Rank D in your freshman year, and you also possess the top-tier ability to see into the mystical realm..."
"But if I remember correctly, for the entire last semester, and just half a month into this semester, from the time you enrolled until you were notified of your leave of absence... for the past six months, your ability level has not progressed at all, remaining at level E."
"Why did it suddenly level up?"
"Is it talent, or...?"
The principal rested his chin on his hands, propped up on the sandalwood desk, and revealed a meaningful smile.
Her breasts were enormous; even with her hands in front of her, the visual impact was undeniable.
Xu Qianyan looked away from Da Lei with a hint of envy.
The principal's words were quite clear.
I have some doubts about the legitimacy of Xu Qianyan's upgrade.
After all, scholarships are awarded, so this kind of review is normal.
However, Xu Qianyan was not guilty and answered directly.
"It was my brother-in-law who gave me some pointers, and that's why I made rapid progress."
"Oh?" The principal was even more curious.
"Your brother-in-law is that amazing? Who is he?"
"Lu Wuxin, his photo is still hanging down there," Xu Qianyan replied matter-of-factly.
This moment.
The principal's expression, which had been full of scrutiny, immediately turned into a gentle smile.
"Haha, I see!"
"So it's little brother Lu Wuxin!"
"His guidance only helped you advance one level; honestly, that's a bit insufficient!"
"He's so irresponsible! If he were willing to wholeheartedly guide you, you would have shone brightly last semester."
The principal's words shocked Xu Qianyan even more.
...In your eyes, what kind of person is Wuxin?
