"Teacher has seen the Taishu Family's efforts over the past two years and was very pleased. Teacher once said that the day the Taishu Family regains its former glory is close at hand," Bai Yue praised, though her voice remained icy.
But the entire Federation knew she was as cold as an iceberg, so no one would misunderstand her on that account.
Taishu Yong's aged face bloomed like a flower as he smiled. "You flatter us, you flatter us. Without the principal's patronage and favor, how could our Taishu Family be where it is today? Never mind our family-could the entire Tiandongli District have developed this far without the principal and your academy? This place would still be nothing but an uninhabited ice field."
Bai Yue's expression remained cold. "Before I came, Teacher gave me instructions. As the Taishu Family is an important part of our Tiandongli District, Frostmoon Cold Isle has a duty to ensure your family's safety."
Overjoyed, Taishu Yong hurriedly said, "Everyone in the Taishu Family will follow closely in the principal's footsteps and do our part for the development of our Tiandongli District."
Bai Yue seemed quite satisfied with his answer and nodded. "The Taishu Family truly lives up to its reputation as a responsible family. The academy unanimously believes that the development of the Tiandongli District requires responsible families like yours to shoulder greater duties." Her expression was composed as she continued, "At the coming council session, Frostmoon Cold Isle will nominate the Taishu Family and push for your full admission to the council. Only in the hands of a responsible and capable family such as yours can a council seat benefit the development of the Tiandongli District. I believe the other councilors will see this as well."
Wild joy spread across Taishu Yong's face.
