Chapter 498 The Master Regretted It
Suddenly, the melodious singing stopped. Liu Erlong seemed to have noticed something, and her beautiful eyes glanced lightly towards the entrance of the deep forest.
Sensing the familiar aura emanating from the newcomer, he quickly withdrew his gaze and focused on watering the green plants and flowers in front of him.
Not long after.
A beautiful girl dressed in the uniform of Blue Tyrant Academy appeared. Following the only narrow path in the forest, she quickly arrived at the courtyard. It was Jiangzhu.
There was a fence around the courtyard. Beyond the fence, Jiangzhu could see Liu Erlong standing gracefully among the green plants and flowers.
Jiangzhu didn't speak immediately, but stared intently at Liu Erlong's beautiful figure, seemingly stunned.
Ever since the dean went into seclusion here, every time I see her, I feel an indescribable sense of amazement.
I always feel that she is getting younger and younger, and her skin is becoming more and more supple. She is no less beautiful than me, a seventeen-year-old girl.
More importantly, the dean's mature and sexy charm has not diminished at all; on the contrary, it has become stronger and more captivating. Even I, as a woman myself, am irresistibly drawn to her. It's truly enviable.
Could living in seclusion here make one younger?
When I get older, can I follow the example of the academy president and live in seclusion here?
Hmm. It would be wonderful to have the dean's company.
As her mind raced, Jiangzhu silently pondered.
"What are you doing standing outside? Come in."
Noticing Jiangzhu standing in a daze outside the courtyard, Liu Erlong looked up at her. He didn't blame her for disturbing the tranquility of the place. He simply opened his mouth slightly and called out to her in a soft voice.
"Oh, oh, okay."
Jiangzhu, who had been in a daze, was pulled back to her senses by the melodious voice. She quickly walked into the courtyard from the gate, came to Liu Erlong, and respectfully bowed, saying:
"Dean."
Liu Erlong put down the watering can, and while washing her soft hands with clean water, she asked softly:
"Jiangzhu, is there something you need?"
Jiangzhu nodded:
"Yes, Dean, two people have come to see you."
"See me?"
Liu Erlong's expression faltered slightly, and he stopped flicking the remaining water droplets from his hands, asking in confusion:
Do you know their names?
Jiangzhu slowly shook her head:
"They didn't say their names, only that they were your old friends. However, they have an exclusive invitation from our Blue Tyrant Academy, which was personally issued by you, the Dean, and has your signature and seal on it."
An invitation? Or did I send it myself? I think I only sent an invitation to Flanders. Could it be that Flanders is coming?
Thinking of this, Liu Erlong's body stiffened instantly, and he suddenly felt happy.
She quickly looked at Jiangzhu, her tone becoming more urgent:
"Tell me, what did those two people look like?"
Without hesitation, Jiangzhu briefly recalled her memories of Flander and Yu Xiaogang, and then recounted their story to Liu Erlong without any ambiguity:
"They both looked rather, well, rather ordinary. Both of them had full beards, and one of them wore a pair of stiff black-rimmed glasses. His face was shaped like a shoehorn, and he would occasionally reveal a cunning smile on his face, making him look like a treacherous black marketeer."
"The other one had a buzz cut, his cheeks were so stiff they were almost sunken, his lips were as thick as two sausages, and he had a confidence and pride that seemed to come from nowhere, but his whole body exuded a strong sense of decadence, like someone who was extremely insecure but pretended to be arrogant."
"In short, it gives people a very contradictory feeling, and I don't feel comfortable looking at it."
In front of Liu Erlong, Jiangzhu didn't hold back at all and spoke very boldly. While describing Flander and Yu Xiaogang's appearances, she also expressed her most honest evaluation of the two.
After listening to Jiangzhu's story, Liu Erlong immediately knew that the first person was undoubtedly Flander.
Whether it's his stiff black-rimmed glasses, his long, narrow face, or his cunning smile, these are all distinctive features of Flanders.
There was no one else but him.
As for that buzz cut guy, judging from Jiangzhu's description, he seems to be a bit ugly. Hmm, none of my old friends seem to be that ugly. I suppose he must be one of Flander's friends.
Oh well, whatever. It's already good enough that Flanders came to visit me.
Liu Erlong was somewhat excited. He looked at Jiangzhu and asked with even greater eagerness:
Where are they now?
Jiangzhu replied:
"In the reception room of the office building."
"Let's go take a look."
After saying that, Liu Erlong lifted her long legs and walked out. Suddenly, she stopped, glanced down at her clothes, thought for a moment, and then turned back.
"Wait a moment, I'll change my clothes."
Then, she flashed into the living room of the wooden house and then returned to her room.
Jiangzhu shook her head helplessly and went into the living room of the wooden house, where she sat on the sofa and waited quietly.
Jiangzhu looked around the entire wooden house with a slightly strange expression.
Besides the room where the dean lives, there are three other rooms here. She had once considered moving here to live with the dean and had even mentioned it to him, but was refused.
The dean said that all three rooms were already occupied, but she had never seen anyone else living there. Every time she came to the cabin to look for the dean, she only saw her alone.
Oh right, I remember a few years ago, Teacher Ye and a little girl named Raven also lived here. Two of the rooms should have been theirs. So, who was the last room prepared for?
Sigh, it's been more than five years since Teacher Ye left Blue Tyrant Academy. I wonder when he'll be back.
Jiangzhu sat on the sofa, propping her cheeks up with her hands, and began to drift off into her own thoughts.
Ten minutes passed.
Liu Erlong finally opened the door and came out.
At this moment, she had changed out of her light green dress and into a black leather women's outfit, the same outfit she often wore when going out.
The silk scarf and headband on her head had been removed, revealing her long, straight, and smooth black hair cascading down her back.
Her sexy, fiery, and tall figure, coupled with a beautiful and charming face that also exudes a touch of heroism, has transformed her previously gentle, soft, and tranquil temperament into one that is now more domineering, fiery, and decisive.
What a stunning and captivating mature woman!
Even though Jiangzhu had seen it many times, she was still inevitably stunned by its beauty at this moment, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
After leaving the room, Liu Erlong locked the door behind her. This room held many precious memories for her and her beloved little brother Xiaofeng, and she wouldn't allow anyone to go in and ruin everything inside.
Even his most beloved and valued disciple, Jiangzhu, was not an option.
"Jiangzhu, let's go."
Stepping out of the room and into the living room, Jiangzhu had already stood up from the sofa. Liu Erlong, unconcerned by her staring gaze, greeted her and led her outside.
…………
Blue Tyrant Academy office building.
In the reception room, Flander slumped listlessly in his chair, sprawled out.
Yu Xiaogang stood by the window, his hands behind his back, gazing wistfully at the scenery outside, lost in thought.
The two waited there for a long time. Ever since Yinshu and Jiangzhu left, no one had paid any attention to them. After all, everyone was busy and had no extra time to spend on them.
Since you're here to see the dean, then just wait patiently for Jiangzhu to bring him here.
Flander didn't think much of it; as long as he could see his beloved Erlongmei, he was willing to wait as long as it took.
But Yu Xiaogang, who had been forcibly dragged over by Flander, was somewhat dissatisfied.
Back then, it was always that silly woman Liu Erlong who waited for him; when had he ever made himself wait for her?
Hmph, when I see her later, I'll have to teach her a lesson. But I can't go too far, what if she finds out something and tries to harm me?
No, no, no, that's impossible. She must still be hung up on him. After all, he's the man she can't have. Unrequited love can drive a person crazy, making them more persistent. Yes, Liu Erlong is that kind of foolish woman.
Just as the two were lost in their own thoughts, suddenly, with a click, the door to the reception room opened, and a graceful and alluring figure strode in—it was Liu Erlong.
Flander, who was slumped in the chair, immediately sat up straight, and Yu Xiaogang, who was standing by the window, also turned his head in response to the sound.
Immediately afterwards, both of them were stunned.
"Hahaha, Boss Fu, it's been so many years, you're still the same as ever."
With a gentle voice and a hearty laugh, Liu Erlong's figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Flander.
Flander and Yu Xiaogang were both startled; neither of them had seen how she had entered the house directly from the front door.
As the saying goes, "a small thing can reveal a great truth." From this simple action, Flander had already realized that Liu Erlong was incredibly powerful, even far stronger than himself.
However, his attention was clearly not on that.
He had already stood up from his seat and was staring blankly at Liu Erlong's beautiful and very young face.
Upon seeing Liu Erlong again, Flander felt a pang of longing, but this longing ultimately turned into a soft sigh:
"Yes, Erlongmei, it's been so many years. I've grown old, but you're still as charming as ever, even more so than before. It seems you're doing much better than I imagined."
"It's alright."
Liu Erlong smiled and waved her hand, then looked at Flander and suddenly said reproachfully:
"By the way, Mr. Fu, why are you only arriving now? Didn't I send you an invitation every year? Didn't you receive it?"
"Uh, this..."
Flander's expression froze, unsure how to explain. Could he say that he was too embarrassed to see her because of brotherly affection?
After thinking about it, he decided to tell a lie:
"I received the invitation, but I just can't find the time. As you know, I founded an academy and am busy teaching students every day. Besides, Soto City is really too far from Tiandou City, you see."
Seeing Flander's embarrassed expression, Liu Erlong chuckled and interrupted him:
"Alright, Mr. Francis, I was just kidding. I didn't mean to blame you. I'm already very happy that you came to visit me."
The two chatted happily, their words filled with the excitement of a long-awaited reunion.
Little did anyone know, Yu Xiaogang, standing by the window, seemed rather unhappy.
His eyes were fixed on Liu Erlong, who was chatting and laughing with Flander. He looked at her beautiful and young face, and at her tall, graceful, hot and sexy figure. It wasn't just Flander who felt his heart flutter; he felt the same way.
His lips trembled slightly, but he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
This woman was supposed to be his wife, but she was also his cousin. To protect his pitiful pride and reputation, and for some sordid scheming, he heartlessly abandoned her without a word back then.
Now, a full twenty years have passed, and I never expected that she would still be so young, even more charming and attractive than before.
It has to be said that upon seeing the stunningly beautiful Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang's heart began to pound violently.
To be honest, at this moment, he was moved and regretted it. He regretted that he should not have abandoned her for his dirty thoughts back then. Otherwise, she would have been his rightful wife long ago.
Seeing that Flander and Liu Erlong were still chatting enthusiastically, Yu Xiaogang's face darkened.
He was jealous.
What's going on with Liu Erlong?
From the moment he walked in, he didn't even glance in my direction once?
Before, he was always focused on me, constantly calling out "Xiao Gang, Xiao Gang" around me. What's wrong with him now?
Your dear brother Xiaogang is standing right in front of you, why did you run off to Flanders?
Look over here, look over here! The performance here... uh, Xiao Gang here is even more handsome!
Yu Xiaogang roared silently in his heart.
However, Liu Erlong ignored him and continued chatting with Flander, completely forgetting that there was someone like him next to her.
Flander was so excited about reuniting with Liu Erlong that he forgot about him for a moment.
"Cough cough—"
Yu Xiaogang finally couldn't help but cough, reminding the two of them.
Upon hearing the cough, Liu Erlong and Flander turned their heads at the same time and looked at Yu Xiaogang.
Liu Erlong frowned slightly, looking at the buzz cut by the window. Perhaps because the light by the window was a bit too bright, he didn't recognize him as Yu Xiaogang at first glance.
However, this did not prevent her from feeling somewhat displeased that Yu Xiaogang had interrupted her reminiscing with Flander.
Just as I was about to say something, I suddenly heard Flanders laugh and say:
"Haha, Erlong, our golden trio is finally reunited today."
Liu Erlong was slightly taken aback. What did that mean? The golden trio was complete? Where were they complete?
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang, who had been standing blankly by the window for a long time, walked up to Liu Erlong with his hands behind his back, and his thick lips, which had been tightly pursed, moved slightly:
"Erlong, it's been a long time."
Looking at the buzz cut that appeared before him, and his face that still retained some familiar features but had changed drastically.
Liu Erlong's expression froze slightly, his pupils contracted instantly, and he asked incredulously:
"You, you're Xiaogang? What happened to you?"
