The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

Chapter 176 7 years

Time is a very relative concept.

For someone like Sang Mo who has lived for tens of thousands of years, seven years is just the time it takes to take a short nap, and he cannot even feel the passage of time.

But for a child like Jiang Liujing, whose entire past life span was only nine years, seven years seemed incredibly long.

-

The magnificent corridor was quiet at first, but suddenly a rhythmic sound of footsteps was heard.

It was not loud, indicating that the owner was not a heavy 250-pound person.

Yi Xue walked along with her heart pounding.

It was the first time she had walked into this building, an office building that was said to have been entirely funded by the son of the richest family, who spent a fortune just to make one person smile.

After just a few steps in, Yi Xue had already fully felt the investor's overwhelming preference for the other party - whether it was the exterior or interior of the building, all the materials were of the highest quality.

The top level means countless gold coins.

Yi Xue glanced at the decorations on the wall, and her eyes seemed to be instantly stung by the magical aura inside. She turned her head away with extreme sadness.

How outrageous! Even a useless mural is considered a work of alchemy.

It appears here not because there is any important alchemical array engraved inside it, but because its appearance color is more in line with the decoration style here.

And, expensive enough.

Things that are not valuable enough don't even deserve to be here.

Yi Xue now couldn't help but feel that she shouldn't be here.

She covered her chest and secretly cheered herself up in her heart:

"Come on, Yixue! You've worked so hard to get this opportunity to meet the Chairman. You must leave a good impression on him!"

After finally reaching the end of the corridor with great difficulty, I saw a door that was more than ten meters away from the other rooms around it, and seemed particularly isolated from the world.

Yi Xue took a deep breath and walked forward to knock on the door.

When I heard the word "Come in", I reached out and gently pushed the door open.

"Squeak-"

The tightly closed door sank into a gap.

Yi Xue walked into the room carefully and looked forward.

The lights in the room were bright and warm, illuminating the figure of a tall and straight young man.

He seemed to be busy, his black satin-like hair cascading down his back. The golden sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a soft and delicate warm light on his face.

His skin was as white and delicate as fresh snow, without any blemishes, like some kind of beautiful, fragile porcelain that needed careful care. Yet, there was not a trace of weakness in his eyes and eyebrows.

Hearing the sound of Yi Xue coming in, the young man briefly broke away from his immersed work state, raised his thick and long eyelashes a little, and looked at her very quietly.

Yi Xue felt that the calmness she pretended to maintain was shattered by this look.

All expectations were shattered, and all self-preservation collapsed in an instant.

Even though I had heard countless times about the Chairman's outstanding appearance in countless rumors, and had also seen the paintings created in various forms by his fanatical followers.

But at the moment when her eyes met the other person's, Yi Xue knew that those methods were ultimately just pale descriptions.

The young man in front of me was like a god descending. His innate nobility and coldness made people feel intimidated, yet they couldn't help but want to get closer.

"Are you the top freshman of this class?" The boy's voice was as clean and clear as his face.

His tone was very calm, without any sense of oppression, but Yi Xue couldn't help but stand straighter in front of him: "Yes... yes, Chairman Jiang, my name is Yi Xue, from the Water Conservancy."

"Dean Francis told me about you. He said you were very good."

It was seven years later that the Water Academy once again achieved brilliant excellence following Jiang Liujing's short-lived success.

"He also told me that you are interested in applying to join the school council."

Jiang Liujing casually pulled out a document from the pile of documents piled high on the corner of the table. His movements were so fast that it seemed that he didn't even see the cover clearly.

But when he opened the folder and pulled out the pages, Yi Xue saw a data sheet belonging to herself.

Attached to the information sheet was an application form of more than ten pages, which almost screamed at the top of its lungs, "Please let me join!"

Handwritten, clear handwriting.

The young chairman placed the application on the table and actually began to read it on the spot.

Three minutes later, he let out a soft laugh.

Yi Xue was stunned.

Very quickly, the girl's entire face turned red, and she covered her face with her hands, not sure if she was out of grief or shame.

This, this, this...this is too social!!

"It's well written and full of emotion. At least you succeeded in touching me." Jiang Liujing's evaluation was very objective.

He sensed a strong sense of identification with them and a desire to join from the girl's application. This was one of the most important selection criteria for the school council to this day.

When Yi Xue heard the idol she had admired for a long time praising her, she felt as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking.

Why would she go crazy and embarrass herself in front of anyone else, but Jiang Liujing?

She had clearly heard that the chairman was very busy and that small matters like applications were handled by his subordinates. In the end, only a screened list was handed to the chairman, so she dared to act so recklessly.

Now, all the first impression she had tried so hard to leave on Jiang Liujing was ruined.

Yi Xue gave Jiang Liujing a stiff smile with a dead heart: "Thank you for your recognition."

Jiang Liujing smiled faintly.

He put the documents back into the file bag and returned to the tall mountain of documents. His fair, soft neck naturally curved into a gentle arc as he lowered his head.

"As long as more than half of the people in the subsequent voting phase support your joining, this application will be approved. I hope you will pass and become one of us."

One-half sounds easy, but it is not easy in practice.

Even though the school council has grown from one grade to multiple grades and has fully covered every college, there are still natural barriers and competition between the colleges.

This is caused by the ineradicable desires of human beings. Even if the King of the Dawn Empire comes to the scene and tells them not to fight and to treat everyone fairly, it will be useless.

Those people will never give in easily on the number of representatives in each house of the school council, which concerns the distribution of power.

Yi Xue was obviously aware of this, but since she dared to sign up, she naturally had enough determination and confidence.

"I will do it." She said to Jiang Liujing with a firm look.
