Chapter 39: The Office

The letter of appointment was real and, despite the query as to his curriculu with his bicycle

As was expected, students and teachers operated under different rules, and teachers were given a designated area to park their vehicles free of charge Lan Jue decided, by the way, to register the antique bicycle for entry

In contrast with the strange alloy of the university’s gate, the interior gave the distinct impression of communion with nature, all fresh and new

Old trees grew together in to a towering canopy that shaded the ca the roads and ays Each area was unique in it’s foliage, and it was clear even at a glance that they were all painstakingly kept The fragrant srance of fresh flowers, boththewith nature

What a wonderful place! Lan Jue silently praised

The buildings, layout and tenets of the school were all in line with it’s teaching ideology And, of course, the preferences of the administration

But more than that Lan Jue felt drawn the National Eastern Campus and it’s adherence to nature If he had to describe it; tranquil That would do it

Earlier whilst being directed through the ca affairs office where he’d registered He was given his office key, as well the key to his apartment He was indeed treated like an honorable associate professor

Stepping out the teaching affairs office, laden with his things, he freed a hand to push his glasses up on his nose

“I guess I’m a teacher!”

Simply put, his first test at the National Eastern University was just around the corner!

Recalling the stony visage of the dean, Lan Jue’s face couldn’t help but suffer a brief twitch Why was it all deans of the world seemed exactly the same – or, at least, shared the same face, like they were cut froht turned over in his h it was none of their business he certainly couldn’t allow himself to be dismissed Otherwise he’d never hear the end of it froes since Lan Jue had felt this eager about so, hoould he prepare?

The NEU was vast, and separated in to nunificant of these was the R&D Departraduate students were pers sprawled across it
