Du Weilun could not be bothered to say anything more to her and simply tossed the little notebook to Zhou Yi.
"Read it yourself. Look at all the beastly things you've done over the years. If Fan Yu weren't protecting you, I'd be well within my rights to cripple you right now."
Zhou Yi frowned as she leafed through the little notebook, her brows knitting tighter the more she read.
She had no recollection of most of the people listed inside. There were only a dozen or so whose names she vaguely remembered.
Zhou Yi snorted coldly. "A bunch of useless trash, just as I thought. If they couldn't even endure that little bit of training, they deserved to be expelled!"
"And these damaged meridians were clearly their own fault! Before they came to Shrek, did they train properly? Did they work on strengthening their bodies?"
Indeed, even now, Zhou Yi believed she had done nothing wrong. She wanted to nurture monsters. Expelling these crooked melons and cracked dates was actually a good thing for Shrek.
The woman's air of self-righteousness sent fury surging through Du Weilun. "Get the hell out!"
Only after watching that bitch finally leave his office did Du Weilun mutter under his breath:
"Is Fan Yu blind? How could he fall for something like that?"
With Fan Yu's talent, what kind of woman couldn't he find?
Yet he had chosen someone like her. Du Weilun truly could not understand it.
After leaving the Academic Affairs Director's Office, Zhou Yi headed straight for the Outer Academy's Soul Tool Department.
"Hey, Mistress! Mistress, you can't go in. Master is making a Soul Tool Core Array."
"Don't stop me. I have something very important to tell your master."
A rough voice and an aged, hoarse voice rang out, making Fan Yu frown as he concentrated on his work.
Bang, bang, bang!
A burst of urgent knocking followed, accompanied by that hoarse female voice.
"Fan Yu, open the door! I need to talk to you!"
The hoarse voice startled Fan Yu, making his hand tremble. With a crack, the nearly completed Soul Tool Core Array was instantly ruined.
Three days of work had gone down the drain, just like that.
Fan Yu raised his head helplessly, wondering what Zhou Yi wanted from him this time.
Still, he walked over and opened the door. A figure immediately threw herself into his arms.
Fan Yu glanced at He Caitou, who stood to one side scratching his head, and gave him a meaningful look.
He Caitou, that dark, egg-shaped baldy, took the hint and immediately left.
"Boo-hoo... honey, Shrek fired me! They've expelled me from Shrek Academy outright!"
Zhou Yi lifted her head, her aged face streaked with tears. Rather than looking pitiful and delicate, she looked particularly ugly.
At the sight of that face, Fan Yu's brows creased almost imperceptibly. Why is she still wearing that mask...?
"What happened? Tell me everything."
So Zhou Yi explained what had happened, then handed Fan Yu the little notebook she had swiped.
Sounding rather aggrieved, she said:
"None of this was my fault. They were just too useless! How can they blame me for expelling them? Honey, I'm sure you understand me, right...?"
After reading the notebook, Fan Yu simply could not go against his conscience and say he understood her.
Some of its contents had shocked even him.
Fan Yu gave Zhou Yi a conflicted look and said:
"Dear, since this was the Sea God Pavilion's decision, there's nothing I can do."
At those words, Zhou Yi spoke again anxiously.
"Honey, I can stop being a teacher, but can't you talk to the higher-ups and ask them not to expel me from Shrek?"
Zhou Yi's thinking was simple. As long as she was not expelled from Shrek outright, given her husband's standing in the academy,
Sooner or later, he would be able to get her reinstated as a teacher.
After a moment of silence, Fan Yu said:
"Dear, go back to Shrek City first. Once I've spoken to my students and given them a few instructions, I'll come find you. We can think of a solution together then..."
Although Zhou Yi was not entirely satisfied, she still nodded.
Watching her retreating back, Fan Yu sighed, feeling exhausted in both body and mind.
He truly loved Zhou Yi, but even he could not withstand all this torment.
Over the past decade and more, he had lost every last shred of dignity cleaning up Zhou Yi's messes.
He had burned through who knew how many favors.
Outside Shrek Academy.
Looking at the magnificent gates, Zhou Yi vowed inwardly, I will definitely be back!
Then she turned and left Shrek Academy. As teachers at Shrek, she and Fan Yu naturally owned a home in Shrek City.
Looks like I'll have to ease up on my teaching in the future. At the very least, I can't let anyone get something they can use against me. No... if I do that, I won't be able to nurture true monsters!
As Zhou Yi's thoughts ran wild, she had no idea that someone already had his eye on her.
It was Red Fang, who had been waiting in Shrek City for a full day and night.
Eating the food in his hand, Red Fang casually fell into step behind Zhou Yi.
That night.
Zhou Yi prepared a lavish dinner at home and removed the aged mask from her face.
An exceptionally pretty face was revealed beneath it.
After some thought, Zhou Yi also put on the black stockings and miniskirt that had swept the continent four years earlier.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Zhou Yi nodded in satisfaction.
"Hehe, with me looking like this, there's no way you won't be tempted, Fan Yu... then I'll ask you to get me back into Shrek Academy. I refuse to believe you'll say no."
During her conversation with Fan Yu that day, Zhou Yi had naturally noticed his indecision.
So, to remain at Shrek Academy, she could only resort to this method.
After putting his affairs at the academy in order, Fan Yu left Shrek Academy.
The entire way home, he thought about how to persuade Zhou Yi to abandon any hope of returning to Shrek.
If she still wanted to teach, he could use his connections to find her a teaching position at an advanced Soul Master Academy.
But when Fan Yu opened the door and saw the tantalizing scene before him, he felt that keeping Zhou Yi at Shrek might not be so difficult after all.
His little head had taken control of his big head.
"Honey... would you like dinner first, or would you rather eat..."
Zhou Yi spoke seductively to the man before her.
Fan Yu swallowed and was just about to answer.
Then his pupils abruptly contracted as an immensely powerful pressure bore down on him.
It was an extraordinarily powerful mental attack imbued with killing intent.
Already mentally fatigued, he was instantly overcome by dizziness.
A green-haired man walked into the house from behind him.
"Who are you?!"
Fan Yu roared hoarsely, his heart already turning cold.
Anyone who could restrain him so effortlessly had to be a Titled Douluo.
Fan Yu then turned his gaze toward his wife.
She was trembling all over, her eyes filled with terror.
Zhou Yi was weak to begin with. If even Fan Yu could not resist this mental attack of killing intent, she stood even less of a chance.
Fear had already consumed her mind.
Red Fang did not reply. Instead, he walked behind Zhou Yi, leaned toward her neck, and took a sniff.
"Ah~ what a wonderful fragrance."
Naturally, Red Fang meant the scent of blood, but Fan Yu had clearly taken it the wrong way.
"Bastard! Let me go! Don't touch my wife! Whatever you want, I can give it to you!"
As Fan Yu stared at the green-haired man, his pupils trembled violently. Not one of those scenes from a novel! No!!!
