Tang Yue's Discovery, Old Cow Eating Tender Grass?

"Those who fail the assessment will be dismissed, that is beyond doubt."

"Those who pass the assessment will have their results divided into two classes by the school: the regular class and the advanced class. You all know which class has better treatment."

"So, work hard, teachers will be waiting for you in the advanced class."

As soon as these words were spoken.

All the boys in the class acted as if they had been injected with chicken blood, each one extremely excited. Some even exaggeratedly shouted slogans.

Seeing this, Tang Yue didn't say anything.

If these brats could strive for excellence and diligently study magic, it would be a good thing.

Although she was only a 'temporary teacher', she still had to be worthy of the word 'teacher' and bear her responsibilities.

Tang Yue collected her thoughts and her gaze shifted to Qin Yuan.

"Where exactly have I seen him before?" Tang Yue's mind kept recalling, trying to find that sense of familiarity.

"Ring ring ring..."

The slow bell rang, and relaxation time was over.

Tang Yue left, casting a deep look at Qin Yuan as she went, as if trying to memorize his appearance.

Qin Yuan naturally noticed Tang Yue's gaze, but he didn't pay much attention. After all, his identity was not something shameful, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Old Qin, how many magic stars have you controlled?" A mischievous voice came from beside his ear.

Without thinking, he knew it was Mo Fan.

After nearly half a year of getting along, Mo Fan's address for Qin Yuan had directly become 'Old Qin'. Their relationship was a bit better than that of ordinary friends.

"I've controlled the same number as you," Qin Yuan said meaningfully.

However, Mo Fan clearly didn't grasp the deeper meaning of his words.

"You've also controlled five, impressive."

Mo Fan praised him, but a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

Five?

Heh heh, I'm sorry, this young master can already cast the Thunder Seal!

Mo Fan chuckled inwardly, feeling a little proud.

"En..."

Qin Yuan gave a soft "En" and didn't explain further.

His Ice element was already Elementary Level One, and in another five months, he would definitely reach the Elementary Level Two stage.

An Elementary Level Two mage just entering his second year of high school.

Was he proud?

Of course he was proud. After all, everyone had vanity.

After a little bit of smugness, Qin Yuan withdrew his thoughts and buried his head in reviewing theoretical courses.

Mo Fan found it boring, so he started chatting with Zhang Xiaohou, and their conversation was also about magic.

A day passed quickly.

Qin Yuan, as usual, went to Inscribed Girls Middle School after school to pick up Ye Xin Xia, and then they went home together.

Night.

Tianlan Magic High School, teacher's dormitory.

Tang Yue was wrapped in a pure white bath towel, her delicate skin faintly shimmering, and a few drops of water slid down from her wet hair.

She leaned against the headboard, a laptop placed on her alluring thighs, her fingers nimble, dancing across the keyboard.

"Dada da..."

"En?"

Tang Yue looked at the information displayed on the computer screen, her small mouth slightly parted, and said in surprise, "I knew it felt so familiar, so it's the 'brother' that Yu'er mentioned."

She knew Qin Yuer. They met through Leng Qing.

Although they weren't very close best friends, they were considered good, understanding friends.

During a conversation, she and Leng Qing learned of Qin Yuan's existence, but they didn't know the specifics. She had only caught a distant glimpse of a photo of Qin Yuer and Qin Yuan together and knew they had a good relationship.

Moreover, judging from Qin Yuer's expression when she mentioned Qin Yuan back then, their relationship was by no means that simple. There must have been some hidden reason.

"Yu'er, I didn't expect Qin Yuan to be the 'brother' you adopted. Is he your brother, or your future husband?"

Tang Yue smiled lightly, her peach blossom eyes seeming to speak.

She had easily found out about the relationship between Qin Yuan and Qin Yuer through the Judgment Association's system.

Although they called themselves siblings, they were not related in any way.

Thinking this, Tang Yue couldn't help but pick up her phone and dial a certain number.

"Ring, ring, ring~"

Soon, with a pause, the call was connected.

"Tang Yue, aren't you on a mission in Bocheng? Why are you calling me all of a sudden? Do you have a lead on the Black Vatican?"

From the phone, a cool, mature older sister's voice came through.

The owner of the voice was Tang Yue's best friend, Leng Qing.

"Not yet." Tang Yue said, sounding a bit tired and dejected, "I've been in Bocheng for over two months, and I haven't found any useful clues at all."

"...I see."

"The Black Vatican is even better at hiding than the Giant-eyed Starry Rats in the sewers. Finding them isn't an easy task."

After comforting her, Leng Qing asked, "Since it's not about the Black Vatican, then what is it?"

Hearing this.

Tang Yue immediately showed a smile and asked, "Leng Qing, do you still remember the Little Yuan Brother that Yu'er mentioned before?"

"Little Yuan Brother... I remember, what's wrong?" Leng Qing's voice held a hint of confusion.

"I got a teacher's identity at the Magic High School in Bocheng as a cover. There's a student in my class named Qin Yuan."

"I specifically checked, and he is indeed the Little Yuan Brother that Yu'er mentioned."

"And, the two of them have no blood relation whatsoever."

As Tang Yue spoke the latter part, the corner of her mouth unconsciously curved into a smile, and her tone became somewhat ambiguous.

"..."

After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Leng Qing's voice came through, sounding slightly surprised, "So... Yu'er raised a child bride for herself? She's an old cow eating tender grass?"

"Puchi!"

Tang Yue couldn't help but laugh at this.

What Leng Qing said was too funny. Although it was the truth, Qin Yu'er was a top-tier beauty. Qin Yuan, this 'tender grass' being eaten, wasn't a loss at all.

"Leng Qing, if Yu'er heard you say that, you'd be in big trouble," Tang Yue said with a laugh.

Leng Qing clearly didn't care. Her light laughter seemed to come from the other end of the phone as she asked, "How is this Little Yuan Brother?"

She was quite interested in Qin Yu'er's 'child bride'.

"He's quite good," Tang Yue recalled Qin Yuan carefully and replied, "Although he's still very young, it's not hard to see he'll grow into a handsome lad."

"His magic talent is also very good. Like Yuer, he's an Ice Mage, and he's an Innate Spirit Seed."

"Is that so? That's indeed good."

Leng Qing agreed, then changed the subject, "Since he's Yuer's Little Yuan Brother, you should take good care of him."

"En."

Tang Yue responded.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before ending the call.

Tang Yue tossed her phone aside and looked at Qin Yuan's photo on the computer. Resting her chin on her hand, she chuckled, "Yuer is also lucky. To have such a good-looking child-husband, I'm tempted too~"

Modu.

Azure Sky Hunter Agency.

The cool, mature older sister put down her phone, her clear, cold eyes looking towards the top of the attic behind her.

"No wonder Qin Yuan is rarely mentioned. So your relationship is more than ordinary," Leng Qing murmured with a slight smile.

She walked towards the attic in the backyard, stopping about ten meters away.

The surroundings were very quiet, and a dense, ice-white cold air lingered. The entire backyard resembled a 'Fairyland' from a fantasy novel.
