Chapter 22 (1/2)
“Imperial Capital Guardian University. Are you interested in learning more about it?”
The words kept ringing in Mike’s ears on the way home.
The impact of Cherevin’s words was too great.
Along the way, he ignored all kinds of sales.
“Student, do you want to learn about swimming and fitness?”
“Unable to apply for a card? For 1000, I’ll give 3000!”
“Only 800,000 for down payment for a house in the suburban housing district!”
“Get a license on installments. Interested?”
…
He had almost arrived at the compound when Mike turned back around.
Looking at Jack beside him, he was still in disbelief.
“Jack, don’t tell me you’re going to the Imperial Capital Guardian University. I’m not dreaming, am I?”
Jack spread his hands and smiled helplessly.
“How should I know?”
He was also confused.
Jack did not know what Cherevin, who claimed to be from the student recruitment office of the Imperial Capital Guardian University, was trying to do.
Mike, after reflecting for a while, said.
“Indeed, Teacher Cherevin is a weirdo!”
“After saying those words to you, he actually turned around and ran away.
He even said that he would help you apply for a special admission process.
It’s too strange. Do you think he’s a cheat!?”
The recruitment teachers from top universities were extremely rare.
Mike and Jack had never come into contact with them before.
Mike, who was kept in the dark, mistook Cherevin for a third-rate Guardian University teacher.
He almost made a fool of himself.
Mike was curious.
“Jack, tell me, why are you so popular?”
Jack said calmly.
“Because I beat up Fan Jia’er.”
Mike: …
“Do you want to try it too? I can help you ask her out.”
Mike quickly waved his hands and refused, “No, no, I want to live a few more years.”
Did he really think that a Grade S talent was a punching bag!?
Mike really went to look for her, it would be hard to say who would beat who up!
Mike quickly changed the subject and pulled Jack toward his house.
“Let’s have dinner at my place tonight. It’ll be lively.
I’ll get my mom to cook a few more dishes so that we can celebrate you getting into Imperial Capital Guardian University!”
Jack laughed.
“Not a word you said is reliable.”
“Forget it, I’ll take it that you really got in.”
Mike was very generous.
“My buddy got into the Imperial Capital Guardian University, we must have a drink tonight…”
“What would you like to drink?”
A familiar voice came from behind him. Mike’s body stiffened, the knot in his throat quivered.
“Drink… juice!”
Mike turned around, scowled, and forced a smile.
“Dad, why did you get off work so early today?”
“Hello, Uncle Owen.”
Mack’s father, Owen, was not taller than 175cm. His figure was thin, and blind in one eye. Mike was usually bold, but when he saw his dad he instantly cowered, like a mouse seeing a cat.
Owen had once fought on the front line of the outer realm and killed many outer realm monsters.
His eye was injured at that time. It was cursed by the monster and lost most of his combat power.
He could only resign to being a B-lister and transfer back to work in New North City.
The combatants who retired from the front line would be treated much better.
Owen was now the head of the city defense department and was responsible for security patrol.
Owen glared at his son, then turned to Jack and smiled.
“Little Jack, you’re here too. Your auntie misses you every day.
She said that the college entrance examination is coming up soon. You can come to my house to eat from now on. Save some time to look up strategies and play games.”
Before Jack could refuse, Owen raised his hand.
“It’s decided, then.
Let’s go home. I still have to work overtime after eating.”
Jack could only comply respectfully.
After transmigrating, Jack had always been alone.
Mike’s house felt more like home to Jack.
It was also one of his concerns in this world.
The good food that Mike’s mother made was wiped out by the few of them.
Owen didn’t forget to remind Jack and Mike before he went out to work.
“Don’t run around after school. Go home early.”
