Xu Qingran had just set his system to temporary blocking mode when an email icon suddenly appeared on the light board next to him.
[You have new email!]
After a few seconds, the floating light jumped again.
[You have new email!]
The two emails arrived at almost the same time.
One was from Grantis High School and the other was from the University Military Academy.
The original owner had excellent grades since childhood. When he was in primary school, he was admitted to Grandis Middle School by himself. Now that he has graduated from high school, the school notified him to pick up some materials left there. These included his works from literary competitions and various awards.
The university asked him to submit some information that he was unable to provide when he was in the Evil Tower, and to register for admission in person to prevent any errors in the system.
The original owner was attending a branch school in the Andromeda system, and went to the main university to handle chores, and was given the Aquamarine Star in the Celestial God system.
I guess I'll be busy again.

As the sun set, Xu Qingran walked out of the room on time for dinner.
In this world, there are actually smart kitchens that can help prepare food. He remembered that the stepmother of the Xu family used this. But there is no such thing installed in the kitchen of Shen Tingyu's home. The food is cooked by Song's wife herself, which is very homely.
He casually asked Mrs. Song this question a few days ago, and Mrs. Song told him that it was because Shen Tingyu didn't like the food made by cold machines.
My little nephew Shen Tianyi has returned from school. Tomorrow is the weekend, so he is sitting on the sofa, holding a metal ball and staring at the air in front of him with joy.
"What are you looking at?"
Xu Qingran's voice suddenly sounded from behind him, and Shen Tianyi was so scared that he almost threw away the thing in his hand that was worth hundreds of thousands of star coins.
Shen Tianyi tightly grasped the small ball in his hand and looked back at Xu Qingran in horror.
The night Xu Qingran came over, his uncle Shen Tingyu called him into the study again and reminded him in a serious tone: "Your fiancée is not a good person. Be careful and have less contact with him."
So he has been trying hard not to have any contact with Xu Qingran these days.
However, meeting Xu Qingran's sincere inquiring eyes, he still clicked on the visual sharing and replied: "I'm watching Duo Lili's online concert."
As Shen Tianyi’s baby voice fell, the scene in the spacious living room disappeared instantly.
The three-dimensional scene of the Starlight Stage then unfolded in Xu Qingran's eyes. They were hung at a high place from the audience's perspective, and could look down at the girl singing and dancing on the stage from afar. She was very beautiful and tall, with shiny purple hair and a knee-length colored skirt, jumping like an elf. There were also many audiences waving fluorescent sticks around the stage.
When Shen Tianyi saw his goddess, he instantly forgot that Xu Qingran, who made him scared, was beside him. He shook his feet on the sofa and said, "No child can refuse to come to a Duo Lili concert after school!"
Xu Qingran looked at it for a while, but didn't see anything special, so he asked in confusion: "Why?"
Shen Tianyi's eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief: "Why? Don't you know Duo Lili?"
"She is the most famous idol singer in the Kaian Empire!"
It is said that the main reason why Dolili became famous is her extremely rare D-type soul spirit type. Her spirit pool class is even rarer to reach SS level, so she can integrate her spirit power into her singing and spread it to everyone who hears her singing.
Even if only a little bit of it is dispersed, it can slightly restore the mental strength consumed by everyone.
Because of her special talent, the Empire did not force her to match up with the E-type of the Evil Tower, nor did it force her to join the military as a logistics officer. Instead, it allowed her to help everyone in the way she liked.
Xu Qingran saw Shen Tianyi's eyes full of admiration, and then looked at the billions of online viewers, wondering: "Is Type D so popular?"
Shen Tianyi nodded vigorously: "Of course, who doesn't like Type D? They are even more precious than Type E!"
Type D is the opposite of Type E. People with this type of soul and spirit are mostly handsome and beautiful in appearance, and have very gentle and docile personalities. Even though some Type D people have high combat power, they are not fierce or cannibalistic at all.
Therefore, the dream of many people is to have an exclusive D-type partner.
Shen Tianyi thought of Xu Qingran, who was inexplicably assigned to him, and the corners of his mouth suddenly turned down.
Alas, it is obvious that this fiancée is a violent and fierce woman who is going to follow in the footsteps of her uncle.
After listening to Shen Tianyi's explanation, Xu Qingran tried to sit with him and listen for a long time, but he didn't feel much. Maybe it was because he didn't have the habit of being obsessed with chasing stars or idols. Just as he was about to get up, the door was suddenly pushed open.
When he saw Shen Tingyu's handsome face, which seemed to be favored by Nuwa alone, the outrageous fabrications made by the system not long ago suddenly popped into his mind.
His face darkened instantly, and he shook off those outrageous memories with a chill.
When Shen Tingyu came back, he was a little surprised to see two people, one big and one small, sitting harmoniously next to each other on the sofa. However, he did not express any opinions, but raised his eyebrows slightly when he met Xu Qingran's gloomy eyes.
—How come he doesn’t remember provoking him recently
However, this did not prevent Shen Tingyu from feeling a little better.
He chuckled and teased, "My little niece, so you like Duo Lili too?"
Then Xu Qingran looked at him with an even more ferocious look: "To be honest, if you are really busy, it doesn't matter if you don't come back home."
Shen Tingyu felt that he might be sick.
He was not interested in people with good tempers, but for someone like Xu Qingran who had a bad temper, who knew when he would step on a landmine. He would rather tease the person intentionally and make him angry, just like he did with the puffer fish.
Of course, he still stopped in time before Xu Qingran decided to fight with him, smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, I've asked for leave, and I'm afraid I'll be at home these few days."
Xu Qingran paused for a moment and asked, "You are a general in the battalion, can you just ask for leave so easily?"
"This is the first leave I've taken this year." Shen Tingyu replied, "Even an admiral needs to rest sometimes."
Although he asked for leave, it didn't mean he could really sit idle, because the military district he managed would soon launch a new round of cleanup operations in the disaster-stricken areas, and he had to plan and formulate implementation strategies in advance.
At the dinner table.
The family of three plus Mrs. Song ate in a very orderly manner.
Shen Tianyi was no longer as repulsive to Xu Qingran as he had been a few days ago. He would even take the initiative to pick up food for him, then raise his chin and pretend to be cool and say, "This is what I should do."
Xu Qingran didn't have the habit of not talking while eating. Thinking of the email he received, he asked Shen Tingyu who was sitting opposite him: "Why haven't I seen Xiao Zhang these two days?"
He is the driver who is responsible for taking him on long journeys.
Shen Tingyu picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and replied, "Someone in Xiao Zhang's family is sick, and I thought it would be a good opportunity for him to take a break, so I gave him a week off."
Xu Qingran briefly explained the email he received: "It's okay, I can drive a car, lend me the most ordinary one, and I'll go by myself."
Shen Tingyu put down his chopsticks and said, "I may not have what you call the 'most common' means of transportation in my warehouse."
Showing off wealth clearly.
"And they only log my personal information. You can't use the ones shared with Xiao Zhang."
Xu Qingran thought to himself, if he had known that day earlier, he would have driven the shuttle back from Xu’s house by himself.
He was about to shamelessly ask if he could temporarily log in to the user information, but before he could ask, he heard Shen Tingyu say, "I'll take you there."
Xu Qingran:
The impact of this sentence is no less than the four words "the end of the world is coming."
Shen Tingyu saw his surprised expression, which he did not try to hide at all, and laughed: "Don't look at me like that. I'm not a bad person. You shouldn't be so surprised when I help you."
Xu Qingran did not comment.
It is true that since they met and got along, Shen Tingyu had not done anything evil except for his bad temper. But from the first impression, he had automatically classified him as a "not a good person".
Perhaps, this is the sixth sense that comes from the "evil guy" meeting his own kind.
Anyway, he just felt that Shen Tingyu was definitely not as gentle as he appeared to be.
While he was complaining in his mind, he heard Shen Tingyu add: "Besides, I need to go to Grandis University anyway, so this is just on the way."
Xu Qingran didn't refuse anymore.
The next morning, when I came back from running two laps, Shen Tingyu was already waiting in the living room.
He was sitting on the sofa, looking down at the light board, not knowing what he was studying.
Xu Qingran quickly took a shower and changed into clean clothes before going out with him.
It was rare that Shen Tingyu was not wearing the formal and luxurious camp uniform. He was just wearing a simple long-sleeved shirt and low-key and plain dark trousers, but they made this clothes hanger look noble.
He drove a two-seater flying shuttle out of the warehouse. Xu Qingran sat in the co-pilot seat and felt that the interior was a little different from the one he used at the Xu family.
Just as I was hesitating whether to ask, I heard the person in the main driver's seat say, "It's okay, I can do it alone."
Then he lay back on the seat confidently, thought for a moment and said politely, "Thank you for your help."
Shen Tingyu smiled and accepted his thanks.
Their first stop was Grantis Middle School, which was relatively close.
Before Shen Tingyu's car reached the school gate, the communicator started beeping again.
Xu Qingran was not so pretentious as to insist on being sent to the door, so he let him park the car on the special high-altitude walkway and got out of the car himself.
In this world, due to the popularity of flying vehicles, there are tall buildings similar to subway stations in towns of all sizes. There are four or five metal tracks extending from top to bottom, which can allow flying vehicles to stop temporarily. There are elevators, escalators and other facilities at the exit for pedestrians to go up and down.
Xu Qingran got off the elevator, boarded the tram on the ground floor, and headed straight to his destination.
The new semester had not started yet, and there were not many people walking around the school. Most of them were graduates like him who were called back to get their things. He released the system and found the Academic Affairs Office under its obedient guidance.
There were not many teachers on duty. A female teacher who looked a little more experienced recognized him at a glance and pointed to the counter in the corner: "Qingran, your things are all there. Take whatever you want, otherwise they will be thrown away at the end of the month."
Xu Qingran walked over and saw his name tag in the corner.
Behind the nameplate was a pile of stuff, including the school's trophy for outstanding students, several best certificates for subjects, and a lot of handmade artworks, including sculptures, models, paintings, etc., all of which had won some awards.
Unfortunately, most of these works of art have been destroyed.
All the ceramic sculptures were broken into pieces, exquisite paintings were maliciously graffitied, and several award certificates were torn up.
He picked up the only one that had been least damaged. It was a colored painting of a man with his chin in one hand, looking out the window. Perhaps because of the identity of the person in the painting, the front of the painting was rarely scribbled on, but there were many mocking words written on the back.
Xu Qingran stared at it for a while and then laughed.
Then he took an empty box and put them all in it.
He walked out of the Academic Affairs Office holding them and was about to go downstairs when he suddenly heard the voices of several students talking about the Xu family at the corner of the corridor.
"Did Xu Qingan invite you to his graduation party?"
"Yes, almost all the guests from the same period were invited, right? There are hundreds of people. The Xu family is really rich. But I heard that something happened in his family a few days ago, so the banquet was postponed."
"Ah? What's going on?"
The person who answered lowered his voice: "I heard it too. It seems that Xu Qingan's mother accidentally fell from the upstairs and was sent to the hospital..."
The conversation faded away as they left.
Xu Qingran withdrew his attention and went downstairs with a normal expression.
As soon as I walked out of the teaching building, a burst of arrogant laughter suddenly came from nearby.
He didn't pay much attention to it at first, until he noticed something flying towards him.
After dodging, I found out it was a stone as big as a baby's fist.
His eyes were still on the stone when a duck-like voice came from the side.
"Hey, isn't this our school's most dissolute and shameless 'excellent student', Xu Qingran?"
