Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

A few lines of text introduced the person's age, name, academic performance in school, and some major tasks they had participated in. It was as concise as a resume written by a recent college graduate.

Mai Shude tucked the first page under her eye and glanced at the second page. The information on this page was even simpler; there was no transcript or information about the projects she had participated in. There was very little information available, only basic details such as her name and date of birth, but it included her place of origin and home address.

Besides, the photos are also different. The handsome young man in the photo on the second page looks a few years older, becoming a youthful and charming teenager. This is the information on new students at Kassel College.

"Chu Tianjiao, from XX province in China... He enrolled at Kassel College in 1983. I was just born when he graduated. Let me see his lineage..."

Mai Shude's gaze swept over the "bloodline" section, and she suddenly froze.

"Bloodline, S?"

As a half-blood, she naturally knew what an S-rank bloodline rating meant. The bloodline rating system used by Kassel College was the same one used worldwide, with the lowest being Z... Of course, she had never seen a Z-rank person; she had only heard that the lowest bloodline rating was D, and there was no need to re-evaluate anything below D.

S-level is the highest rating.

There are very few S-class hybrids in the world. Apart from Angers, the principal of Kassel College, and a few old monsters from big families, she really hasn't heard of anyone else whose bloodline rating has reached S-class.

Even A-grade bloodlines are quite rare worldwide. Even at Kassel College, a gathering place for mixed-race individuals, only fewer than ten A-grade students are admitted each year. Her bloodline rating is A-grade.

"Are you sure this information is correct?" Mai Shude frowned.

Although she already knew beforehand that Chu Tianjiao had a high bloodline, Jiu Demai guessed that Chu Tianjiao's bloodline was at most A-grade or A+ grade.

The S-class bloodline was indeed beyond her expectations.

"I was also shocked when I first saw this document. I wondered if the person who sold me the document was trying to scam me," Lao Lei said. "But after checking it several times, I confirmed that the information was correct. The man named Chu Tianjiao is indeed an S-level."

Mai Shude held the document and stared at Lao Lei for a while before her crimson eyebrows lifted slightly. "Alright, I believe you. I'll take this document with me first. I'll settle the balance with you this weekend, at the usual place. It takes a while for overseas bank transfers to enter the country."

"Not urgent."

Old Lei smiled like a top-notch sales clerk in a clothing store… Perhaps his job was similar to that of a clothing store clerk: “Customers trust us, and we must also give them sufficient trust. Only in this way can business last.”

Too lazy to reply, Mai Shude stuffed the two A4 pages back into the kraft paper file bag.

"I am leaving."

As Mai turned around, her high ponytail traced a beautiful arc in the air, as nimble as a black magpie.

As they left, they didn't forget to steal an umbrella from the counter.

"Hey, that's a customer's umbrella."

"I went out without any money, so please remember to pay for it for me..."

The female ninja, or rather the female thief, abruptly stopped outside the door.

……

"The weather forecasts have been getting less and less accurate lately."

Lu Mingfei glanced out the window and muttered a complaint.

Or rather, weather forecasts are like Schrödinger's cat. They're very accurate when you don't look at them, but they suddenly stop working once you start to trust them.

However, this can't be blamed on the weather forecast; the weather in the south is just that unpredictable in summer. Especially in coastal cities, a gust of wind from the sea can bring an unexpected rain.

However, this rain really came at a bad time.

Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen are now trapped in the classroom.

The other classmates had already left. As soon as class ended, Liu Miaomiao was picked up by her mother in her BMW. Xiaotian asked him if he wanted to go back together, but he said he had something to do, and then Xiaotian left first.

After everyone in the class had left, he accompanied Chen Wenwen to the student council office.

Lu Mingfei originally wanted to talk to Chu Zihang about this, but Chu Zihang, the vice president of the student council, was not in the office. Instead, Zhang Qiu, the senior student he had met in the basketball club, was in the office.

Seeing that Chu Zihang was not there, Lu Mingfei originally wanted to go to the gymnasium to find him, but Chen Wenwen was stopped by Senior Sister Zhang Qiu. Only then did Lu Mingfei realize that Zhang Qiu was the senior sister from the Organization Department that Chen Wenwen had mentioned.

The reason Zhang Qiu stopped Chen Wenwen was, of course, to ask how things were going with Liu Miaomiao. Upon learning that Liu Miaomiao was unwilling to change the piece she was to perform, Zhang Qiu's eyebrows immediately furrowed.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei was present. Presumably out of consideration for the relationship between Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, Zhang Qiu did not make a scene. Instead, she earnestly told Chen Wenwen that the organization department had been very busy lately, and the teachers above were urging for a new performance schedule, which was due this week. She asked Chen Wenwen if she could try harder.

Actually, this work had nothing to do with Chen Wenwen. The class's organization committee member only had the obligation to cooperate with the student council, but no other responsibility.

However, Chen Wenwen was persuaded by Senior Sister Zhang's persuasive words, and knowing that Liu Miaomiao's side definitely couldn't change the song, so she pursed her lips and took the initiative to take on the responsibility of helping the student council to arrange the schedule.

Just as I returned to the classroom, two loud claps of thunder suddenly rang out in the sky, followed by a downpour of fine rain.

"I wonder how long the rain will last?"

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered the last time he was trapped by the rain, it was also an afternoon like this, but the rain was heavier and the sky was darker than it is now.

"It's okay, class monitor."

Chen Wenwen, who had been typing on her phone, finally turned around and smiled gently at Lu Mingfei. "My dad will be driving over in a little while. You can hitch a ride with me back home."

ride-sharing...

For some reason, hearing those three words on a rainy day suddenly triggered some PTSD in Lu Mingfei.

……

Chapter 130 also includes a gift for the junior sister.

The white Passat arrived at the school gate a dozen minutes later. After hanging up the phone, Chen Wenwen stood up and tidied up the notebook that was spread out on the table.

Lu Mingfei knew that Chen Wenwen had been writing in her notebook with her back to him. Her neat handwriting was arranged in orderly lines, but he couldn't see the contents. However, he guessed it was probably a poem or some kind of essay. Lu Mingfei knew that Chen Wenwen enjoyed writing poetry.

“Let’s go,” Chen Wenwen said, turning around. “Cars aren’t allowed inside the school, so my dad will be waiting for us at the school gate.”

Lu Mingfei nodded: "Okay."

A rare sun shower; the setting sun cast its last rays, and the raindrops cascaded down the eaves like golden curtains. The rain wasn't light, and neither of them had brought an umbrella.

Chen Wenwen looked at the sky and was about to lift the National Geographic backpack above her head when Lu Mingfei took off the jacket of Shilan Middle School's British uniform and put it over their heads.

"Chen Wenwen, would you like to come a little closer?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Chen Wenwen was taken aback, then softly replied "okay," and leaned closer to Lu Mingfei.

This feeling is quite strange. In his past life, Lu Mingfei had fantasized about similar scenarios many times. He and Chen Wenwen were trapped in the same rain, and he would rescue her by pulling an umbrella out of his bag like a hero, or he would simply open his coat like an anime protagonist and squeeze under it with Chen Wenwen.

In his past life, Lu Mingfei had never encountered such an opportunity. On the contrary, in this life, the only time he had the chance to stay in the classroom with Chen Wenwen was interrupted by a heavy rain.

"Did you charge?"

"Ah."

At Lu Mingfei's command, the two of them rushed into the rain. They didn't run very fast; Lu Mingfei subtly matched Chen Wenwen's pace. All around them was the white noise of the heavy rain hitting the ground.

A handsome young man and a beautiful young woman were running in the heavy rain with their coats over their shoulders. What should have been a rather ambiguous atmosphere turned into an awkward silence due to their unfamiliarity with each other.

Should I try to start a conversation now...? Lu Mingfei thought to himself as he looked down at Chen Wenwen beside him.

He was now a full head taller than Chen Wenwen, so when he looked down, he could only see the top of Chen Wenwen's head.

She wore her hair in loose pigtails today. She had a lot of hair, and the pigtails weren't very noticeable. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to tell that it was pigtails. But now that it was a little wet from the rain, it looked like her long hair was just hanging down her back.

She was wearing the same school uniform as all the other girls, with her slender calves showing through the long skirt that reached her knees.

Instead of her usual leather shoes and white socks, she wore white strappy sandals, her snow-white feet wading through puddles of varying depths.

After hesitating for a while, Lu Mingfei decided that it was better to maintain the status quo. Sometimes forcing a topic when there isn't one can only make the atmosphere more awkward.

However, it's clear that some people don't want the atmosphere to remain silent.

"Senior brother, step back a little! Let me cover myself too."

Xia Mi, like a little ghost from "A Chinese Ghost Story," suddenly appeared out of nowhere and squeezed under Lu Mingfei's clothes.

Before Lu Mingfei could react, Xia Mi's eyes darted around, and she immediately nodded respectfully to Chen Wenwen beside her.

Hello, senior sister!

"Hello." Chen Wenwen's expression froze, clearly startled by the sudden appearance of this beautiful junior sister.

Only then did Lu Mingfei finally realize what was happening: "How did you get here?"

What do you think, senior brother?

Xia Mi made a face. "It's because of this rain. After I finished rehearsing in the club, I went to the classroom to pack up my things and was about to go home when it suddenly started raining. I was going to wait and see if the rain would let up, but it just got heavier and heavier. Just as I was about to brave the rain to go back, I saw you running over, and I wanted to rub against your clothes."

At this point, Xia Mi suddenly stopped, then turned to Lu Mingfei and complained, "Senior brother, move back a little more, I'm all wet..."

"Damn, if this continues, I'll be completely soaked in the rain."

"And I don't believe you for a second. You, the Dragon King, would be stopped by a rainstorm?" Lu Mingfei thought to himself.

"By the way, senior brothers, how are you getting back?" Xia Mi asked. "Are you also getting soaked in the rain like me?"

“My dad picked me up in his car and then gave Lu Mingfei a ride,” Chen Wenwen said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenwen felt the atmosphere become strange, because she saw the cute junior sister who had suddenly appeared in front of her glare at her fiercely. Chen Wenwen felt guilty and wondered if she had said something wrong.

However, the next moment, this cute junior sister suddenly had a pair of starry eyes and leaned towards him aggressively.

"Senior sister, could you also see me off? If I miss the last bus, I'll have to walk back in the rain for an hour." Xia Mi said pitifully.

"Wait……"

Lu Mingfei, who was holding up the clothes, clearly sensed a conspiracy in Xia Mi's words. He was about to speak up to stop Chen Wenwen when Chen Wenwen nodded in agreement.

“Sure,” Chen Wenwen nodded.

"She's a beautiful senior!" Xia Mi instantly snuggled up to Chen Wenwen like a kitten. "Hello, senior. My name is Xia Mi. I'm a year younger than you and I'm in my third year of junior high."

"Hello, Junior Sister Xia." Chen Wenwen tilted her head and smiled. "My name is Chen Wenwen."

……

The Volvo S80's fourteen Harman Kardon speakers were playing Queen's "I Want to Break Free" at full power, with the sexy, magnetic baritone voice flowing through the cabin.

Mai Shude stepped on the gas pedal barefoot, tapping her other foot on the carpet to keep time. She tossed her expensive Ferragamo high-heeled boots onto the passenger seat, next to a brown paper bag containing Chu Tianjiao's identification documents.

On the way to Xinyu Internet Cafe, my Ferragamo boots were already soaked with water, and they felt strange to walk on, slippery and uncomfortable.

Mai Shude often wears high-heeled boots while driving, but her boots got wet, and it was raining. Although Volvo cars are known for their safety, she decided to take off her boots and drive barefoot for safety reasons.

The windshield wipers swept away the raindrops on the windshield in bursts. Since entering the ring road, there hadn't been many cars in sight, so Mai simply floored the accelerator, speeding along the road at top speed. Water splashed outside the car window.

Mai Shude held the steering wheel with one hand and pulled out a red Sony LT26i from the front of her clothes with the other, calling back the missed call.

When I went to the internet cafe, Chip Girl called her several times, but she didn't hear the phone ring until she got on the bus. However, after calling back several times, no one answered.

A female notification sound came from the phone, indicating that no one was answering.
