Chapter 176 – If She's Got Guts, Let Her Come (Part Three)

“Hey, look, it’s Senior Ming!”

“The senior is so handsome!”

“Yeah, I’m totally obsessed with him – the cold, aloof prince!”

“By the way, why is he with Ye Yunxi?”

“Exactly, this Ye Yunxi is so annoying!”

Several girls gathered around, chattering while staring in their direction.

Ming Siye straightened his expression: “The teacher I’m taking you to meet is Zhao Qi, who manages all the student clubs. Getting to know him would be very beneficial for you.”

He thought this offer was quite generous, yet Ye Yunxi remained unmoved, only frowning impatiently at the surrounding chatter.

She could find teachers on her own, but being constantly pestered by Ming Siye was truly annoying.

“If I go with you, will you stop bothering me afterward?”

“Huh?”

Ming Siye was taken aback, never expecting Ye Yunxi to say such a thing.

Bother you?

How could any woman find him annoying?

Shouldn’t girls be like those around them, completely infatuated with him?

But that wasn’t the main issue – the problem was Ye Yunxi’s words!

“Fine!”

Ming Siye nodded.

However, he firmly believed that after meeting Teacher Zhao Qi, Ye Yunxi would take back those words!

Zhao Qi valued etiquette above all else, which was precisely why he had chosen to introduce him to Ye Yunxi.

Taking off her shoes publicly during the opening ceremony showed complete lack of manners – this would definitely make Teacher Zhao Qi prejudiced against Ye Yunxi from the start.

But this way, he could conveniently mediate between them, presenting it as doing Ye Yunxi a favor. Accumulating enough favors would make it impossible for Ye Yunxi to escape – even just for these debts of gratitude, she would join Burial Sky.

This recruitment tactic was learned from his brother and had always been effective. Just look at how Dao Ge would risk his life to protect Ming Siye – this method could maximize winning people’s loyalty and had never failed before.

Ming Siye felt confident and determined, as if he had already conquered this tough nut, Ye Yunxi.

Unfortunately, while this tactic worked on everyone else, it was truly ineffective against Ye Yunxi.

Would the former solo combat king ever owe favors to others?

Arriving at the teacher’s dormitory, Ming Siye knocked on the door.

A vigorous voice came from inside: “Who is it?”

“Teacher, it’s Ming Siye. I’ve brought a classmate to consult you about some matters.”

Soon, the door opened. Zhao Qi, in his forties with an austere demeanor, first nodded at Ming Siye, then slightly frowned upon seeing Ye Yunxi.

Youthful recklessness was one thing, but lacking etiquette and manners was quite unacceptable – it really annoyed people.

“Teacher, I’m student Ye Yunxi. Sorry to disturb you.”

Ye Yunxi slightly bowed her head. Whether in her standing posture or the degree of her bow, everything was just right. The curve of her lips maintained a perfect smile, and even the way her black hair fell was exceptionally elegant. This made Zhao Qi, who was about to turn away, pause and instinctively glance at her again.

Wasn’t her etiquette quite proper?

Her words were also very polite, without any hint of impropriety. But what about changing shoes publicly during the opening ceremony?

Zhao Qi felt uncertain but still said: “Come in, have a seat anywhere.”

Ming Siye promptly took the seat of honor – the position reserved for the most distinguished guest according to etiquette.

Zhao Qi looked at Ye Yunxi and saw the young girl still wearing a faint smile, calmly taking the seat below Ming Siye.A glimmer of approval flashed in Zhao Qi’s eyes. Not bad, she knows the rules.

This only made him more curious. If she clearly understood etiquette and rules, why did she do such a thing during the opening ceremony?

“Ye Yunxi, what did you mean by changing your shoes during the opening ceremony?”

Zhao Qi ultimately couldn’t resist asking.

He was very curious.
