Wan Lixiu blushed at once and bowed alongside Long Yusheng. "Thank you for your guidance, Former Principal."
"Mm. Come here, girl." He Yuanyue took a pair of small jade pendants from inside her clothes. "Come, bend down and lower your head."
Wan Lixiu obediently lowered her head. He Yuanyue hung one small jade pendant around her neck and said with a smile, "Young Long, put yours on yourself."
Long Yusheng's face was also full of excitement. He carefully accepted the jade pendant and put it around his own neck, a goofy smile plastered across his face.
He Yuanyue chuckled softly. "In the future, if you encounter any obstacles... just say that I, He Yuanyue, gave you these, and that I, He Yuanyue, said so."
"Yes!"
Wan Lixiu and Long Yusheng both dropped to their knees and respectfully kowtowed nine times, their heads striking the floor audibly. "Thank you for bringing us together, Former Principal!"
With those words from He Yuanyue, unless the two of them were unwilling themselves, no one could ever separate them again, at least within Phoenix City!
Anyone who dared forcibly break them apart would face the utmost resentment of every powerful figure who had graduated from Second High School!
Yet something suddenly stirred in Zuo Xiaoduo's mind.
Long Yusheng's facial features were exceptionally auspicious, indicating that his future prospects were bright as well, but the lineage behind him was not nearly as outstanding as he was... He himself had gleaned this through Fortune-Telling, so there was an explanation for that.
But did He Yuanyue have some deeper meaning in making this declaration today? Could she have seen something too?
He Yuanyue coughed softly, her voice growing weaker still. "Sadly, I won't live to see that day... otherwise, I would certainly officiate for you myself."
