Chapter 780 - 780 Returning to the Academy
780 Returning to the Academy
Six hours later, Chu Nan walked into Star Cloud Academy with a relaxed expression. His posture was as relaxed and natural as every time he returned to the academy from outside. There was nothing abnormal.
However, when they saw him appear, the other students in the surrounding academy revealed surprised expressions. They instantly focused their gazes on him with strange expressions.
Be it the video of Chu Nan being attacked by the stargate nearly half a year ago or his appearance everywhere under the arrangements of the Federation Army in the past few days, it had made him a well-deserved celebrity in the Earth Federation.
Although the attention of the outside world had decreased slightly under the deliberate arrangements of the Federation Army in the past two days, he was still the most eye-catching figure in the federation. Even the relevant news of some celebrities could not overshadow him.
In Star Cloud Academy, Chu Nan was originally very famous. Now that he had experienced this incident and caused the entire academy to endure countless accusations and huge pressure, he naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention.
However, now that this focus of attention had suddenly appeared in the academy, the people of the academy naturally had extremely complicated moods.
They looked at Chu Nan with envy, jealousy, and admiration, but there was also disdain, disgust, and even hatred. It represented the different feelings of different students towards him.
However, after hesitating for a moment, a large group of people still surrounded him.
“Wow, Chu Nan, you’re finally back!”
“Chu Nan, you’re actually back!”
“Chu Nan, will you still come back to school?”
“Chu Nan, you…”
…
A large number of questions surged toward Chu Nan. Most of the questions revolved around one point, which was whether he would continue his studies at Star Cloud Academy.
However, Chu Nan could not give an accurate answer to this question because he had returned to discuss it.
The communication he had received just now was from the officials of Star Cloud Academy.
Fortunately, he had followed Major Clint to various occasions these few days. Chu Nan was no longer the kind of newbie who had seen such a scene for the first time. He only maintained his smile and dealt with it.
As expected, not long after, a furious roar penetrated the commotion of the surrounding students and clearly entered everyone’s ears.
“Why are you all blocking the door? Hurry up and disperse!”
Hearing this voice, all the students surrounding Chu Nan could not help but tremble. After pausing for a moment, they immediately opened up a path like a broken wave and gave way to him.
Outside the crowd, the serious director of the Star Cloud Academy’s teaching office, Aguero, glanced at the surrounding students and waved at Chu Nan.
“Come with me.”
Under Aguero’s might, the surrounding students could only watch helplessly as Chu Nan was taken away by him and discussed.
“Why do you think Chu Nan suddenly returned?”
“It can’t be a good thing, right? Such a thing has already happened. I don’t believe he’ll still return to the academy.”
“That’s not necessarily true. This is Star Cloud Academy after all. Where else can he go to school if not here?”
“What school does he need to go to? Didn’t you see what the media revealed? He can even deal with Heaven Control experts now.”
“I don’t believe it. He’s now…”
…
Although Chu Nan heard the discussion of the students behind him, he did not take it to heart and quietly followed behind Aguero.
After a while, he was surprised to discover that Aguero did not bring him back to the Martial Arts Branch. Instead, he walked all the way into the depths of the academy and was finally brought to the main office building of the academy. Then, he entered the building and brought him to the dean’s office.
“Go in. The dean wants to see you.” Aguero helped Chu Nan open the door and ignored the shock on his face before gesturing for him to enter.
Chu Nan immediately saw that behind the open door, Dean Lin Mingdao was sitting behind his desk and looking at him. He thought for a moment and walked in.
The door emitted a muffled sound behind him and was closed again. Lin Mingdao waved at Chu Nan.
“Come and sit down.”
Chu Nan glanced at Lin Mingdao strangely and thought to himself that the person who took the initiative to contact him was the academic director of the Martial Arts Branch, Wang Sicheng. Now, the first person to see him was Dean Lin Mingdao. The difference was too great.
“I should thank you first.” As soon as Lin Mingdao spoke, he shocked Chu Nan.
“Thank me?” Chu Nan asked in surprise, “For what?”
“Thank you for avoiding the accusations of the academy under such circumstances and saving face for the academy,” Lin Mingdao replied, “With your answer, the pressure on the academy immediately decreased greatly. As the dean, I naturally have to thank you.”
Chu Nan thought for a moment and immediately understood that Lin Mingdao was referring to his first public appearance a week ago when he answered the reporters’ questions. He said that all his actions in the Leppler Star System incident were his own and had nothing to do with Star Cloud Academy. Star Cloud Academy did not need to take responsibility for this.
It was also after he spoke that although the public criticism of Star Cloud Academy did not completely disappear, it quickly weakened.
From this perspective, it was reasonable for Lin Mingdao to thank Chu Nan as the dean of Star Cloud Academy.
“I’m only telling the truth.” Chu Nan shrugged and put on an indifferent attitude.
In any case, he had already displayed his attitude. Next, it was up to Star Cloud Academy to express their opinion.
However, from the fact that Director Wang Sicheng had taken the initiative to contact Chu Nan and even Dean Lin Mingdao had personally appeared, Star Cloud Academy was still very sincere.
“Is that so?” Lin Mingdao seemed to have seen through Chu Nan’s thoughts. He smiled and continued, “No matter what, it was our academy’s mistake this time. We did not provide enough protection to the students who were in danger. Fortunately, you were blessed by the heavens and returned safely. After receiving the news that you were safe, I heaved a long sigh of relief.”
At this point, Lin Mingdao suddenly changed the topic.
“Of course, since you’re in danger because of our academy’s negligence, the academy naturally has to make some compensation. If you have any requests, feel free to ask.”
Chu Nan’s eyes lit up and he thought to himself that the dean was a sensible person. He directly mentioned the problem of compensation after saying a few words and saved him the trouble of talking.
However, after looking at Lin Mingdao, his eyes darted around and he smiled and shook his head.
“Dean, this is a problem between me and the Martial Arts Branch. You don’t have to ask. I think Director Wang Sicheng will discuss it with me in detail later.”
“Very good.” Lin Mingdao nodded lightly, “In that case, I’ll wait for your good news.”
