Chapter Summary
If an ordinary person asked for leave, they would probably just go about their business, and he wouldn't have time to waste on such trivial matters. Everyone understands this now, so even though Liu Ning took her away, these people could only say a few words behind his back; they didn't dare to do anything else. If we could do whatever we wanted, human technology wouldn't progress so quickly, and in the end, we'd still be bullied by those ferocious beasts." Sophie was acting like a little girl, ...
Dean Fang naturally had nothing to say. He was well aware of the authority Liu Ning's words carried. If an ordinary person asked for leave, they would probably just go about their business, and he wouldn't have time to waste on such trivial matters. But if it was someone like Liu Ning, it was a completely different story. Liu Ning held a high position and wielded great power. For him to ask you for leave meant that he owed you a favor. This favor would be extremely important no matter what you wanted to do in the future; it all depended on whether you knew how to use it. So Dean Fang readily agreed. What happened next was that Liu Ning left with Su Fei. Everyone present knew that Liu Ning's future was undoubtedly limitless.
Liu Ning is already incredibly powerful. If he were to emerge from the ancient ruins—a place no joke—any genius who goes through it will essentially become a super expert. Many people achieve breakthroughs there. So, they thought the same way. If Liu Ning could break through, he would definitely reach the level of a War God. However, Liu Ning doesn't need to go in now. Even with his current abilities, he's one of the top experts. If he really wanted to mess with them, they wouldn't be able to stop him. So, they could only watch Liu Ning and his group leave. They also knew they couldn't fawn over Miss Su anymore; her boyfriend wasn't someone to be trifled with. What else could they do?
These people were also very frustrated. They all knew that Liu Ning's publicly acknowledged girlfriend was Miss Bai, and they never imagined that there was another Miss Su among them. But that's the reality of society—some are starving while others are drowning in wealth. If you can't find someone, it's your own fault. Who told you that you weren't strong enough? If you were strong enough, the outcome would probably be different. Everyone can see the current situation clearly. Under these circumstances, everyone is in a very good position. If all of this could be resolved, things would be unpredictable. Everyone understands this now, so even though Liu Ning took her away, these people could only say a few words behind his back; they didn't dare to do anything else.
At the same time, everyone also understood something else. Originally, everyone thought Sophie had no powerful connections, so many people tried to get resources from her, like research resources. But now many realized, was she really without connections? Her connections were far stronger than ours. It's fortunate we didn't do that before; if we had, what would the result be? Sophie would likely have complained. Sophie might not care about such things, but would Liu Ning care? Everyone knows Liu Ning's capabilities. If it really came down to it, none of us would be a match for him. Let alone us, what could Dean Fang do? Did he really think Dean Fang was that powerful? That's impossible.
"Make it clear to the soldiers guarding the gate: don't let any young masters in. From now on, no matter whose pass they have, tell them to get lost. If we really anger Councilor Liu, we'll all be in deep trouble. I reckon the military has some information. If they want to continue living comfortably, they'd better keep a close eye on that gate. If they let those young masters in again, none of us will have a good life. Someone who can defeat a mage and is about to go to the ancient ruins is someone we can't afford to mess with. So let them stay there. If we find the mage, we might not even have our lives left, while he's standing there unscathed."
Dean Fang suddenly remembered something else, and it was of utmost importance. If things continued as before, his position as dean would likely be over. In fact, based on his performance just now, Liu Ning also felt that this guy was not suitable for this place. He wasn't focused on scientific research at all, nor was he thinking about changing the situation for his subordinates. All he was thinking about were other things, either trying to scheme here or there. Liu Ning really didn't know what to say about such a person. If he could be put on the right track, it would be very good for everyone. The people around him agreed. They knew how powerful Councilor Liu was, and they quickly went to notify the gatekeeper downstairs to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
"I figured you'd come here, but you really did surprise me. Don't do that next time. Look how busy I am with my work. You know how much this research project affects people's lives. If it gets delayed, we won't feel good about it. I know you want to see me, and I want to see you too, but the burden on our shoulders is just too heavy. We're completely different from ordinary people. They can enjoy life, but we carry their lives on our shoulders. If we could do whatever we wanted, human technology wouldn't progress so quickly, and in the end, we'd still be bullied by those ferocious beasts."
Sophie was acting like a little girl, complaining to Liu Ning but secretly very happy. Liu Ning was a little surprised. He knew Sophie had always been kind-hearted, but he hadn't expected her to become like this, taking on all the responsibilities. Even though she was a scientist, there were so many scientists in human society; she couldn't just be absent. Those people were capable, and they did a great job. However, Liu Ning fully respected women and especially respected paid work. He smiled and nodded, promising to be more mindful in the future. But today's situation was special, since they were about to go to the ancient ruins.
