Chapter 36: I’m No Longer Passionate About You (Confirmed)
In order to push his beloved CP, the old guy was going all out.
After some brief pleasantries, Vice-Principal Wilson rubbed his hands together, looking at the two little dragon daughters.
“Which of you is signing up this time?”
Mu’en stood on tiptoe, raising her hand eagerly, “Vice-Principal Wilson, both Guang and I are signing up!”
“W-What?!”
Smack—
León slapped his face.
It was over.
Too late!
“Miss Loisver, Mr. León, is this true? Both of your little princesses are signing up for this year’s Young Dragon department?!”
The light in Vice-Principal Wilson’s eyes grew even brighter.
He no longer looked like a sailor discovering a new continent, but more like an astronaut discovering a new planet.
“Y-Yes, Vice-Principal, the children want to learn, and we can’t stop them,” Loisver said with a slight smile, slightly helpless.
“Ha! — Ha! —”
After receiving confirmation from the parents, the old dragon suddenly covered his chest and started gasping for air.
León was startled and raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong? Asthma flaring up?”
“N-No, Mr. León, I’m just… excited. Very excited.”
“…It’s just an entrance exam, you shouldn’t be so excited, right?”
Vice-Principal Wilson waved his hand grandly and said seriously, “How could I not be excited? Your eldest daughter, Noia, passed the entrance exam at the youngest age with the highest score, and for two consecutive school years, she has remained first in her grade. She will definitely become a top dragon warrior in the future.”
“And as her younger sisters, I’m sure these two little princesses are just as outstanding.”
“You’ve provided the academy with such excellent students, how could I not be excited?”
The vice-principal looked over the two little ones with satisfaction, then shook León’s hand, “Mr. León, considering your excellent performance in the previous exam, I can make an exception and let you skip the test, and be directly admitted!”
Upon hearing this, the couple immediately waved their hands in refusal, “Oh no, Vice-Principal, we’ll go through the regular process, yes.”
There were two reasons for rejecting the vice-principal:
One, based on the personalities of León, Loisver, and their daughters, they would never use connections to go through the back door;
Two, they needed to tamper with the test results in order to implement a certain ‘plan.’
“It’s fine, you two, the academy has entrance slots every year that allow students to bypass the exam. It’s not something to be ashamed of,” Vice-Principal Wilson said.
“Thank you for your kindness, Vice-Principal, but we really don’t need this operation. Mu’en and Guang can pass the test based on their own abilities,” Loisver said.
After several rounds of refusal, the vice-principal couldn’t persuade the couple and sighed deeply.
Looking at his reaction, the couple exchanged glances.
Looks like the old dragon wasn’t happy, huh?
But that’s fine. With the vice-principal in a bad mood, their ‘plan’ might go even more smoothly.
However—
“Ah! Truly, you are the model family of our academy! This upright, hands-on spirit is something every dragon should learn from!”
León & Loisver: ……
You’re invincible, Old Wilson.
You’re something else, who can top you?
“Now, do you both understand the testing process? The little princesses will go for the written test, and you two will come with me for the family interview on the fourth floor,” the vice-principal said.
León nodded, “Yes, no problem.”
“Great, a staff member will take you to the fourth floor shortly. I’m looking forward to your performance this year.”
After a few more pleasantries, the vice-principal left.
The couple let out a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, León felt someone tugging at his sleeve.
Looking down, it was Mu’en.
“What’s wrong, Mu’en?” León squatted down.
“Dad, I’m a bit nervous.”
Although she had confidently declared to her sisters that she would definitely pass the test, now that she was actually facing it, the younger dragon like Mu’en was bound to feel nervous.
This was normal; not being nervous would have been the abnormal reaction.
León smiled and pinched his daughter’s cheek, “Didn’t your sister just say that you should believe in yourself? You’re Noia’s sister; you can do it, no problem.”
Little Moon’s stray hair wobbled as she lowered her head and gently bit her lip. After a brief but intense mental battle, Mu’en nodded forcefully,
“Okay, I’ll try my best, Dad.”
“Mm, Mu’en is awesome.”
Just as he finished speaking, a teacher at the work station called out,
“All young dragons registered for the entrance exam, please gather on the third floor.”
“Go ahead, Mu’en, Guang, perform normally, don’t feel too pressured.”
“Yes, Dad!”
The two little dragon daughters held hands and headed to the third floor.
León stood up slowly and turned to Loisver, “We should go prepare for the interview. Everything according to plan?”
The queen nodded, “Mm.”
The couple exchanged glances and said in unison:
“‘The Ceremony Won’t Be a Social Death’ Plan, Activate!”
Two years ago, their eldest daughter Noia passed the Young Dragon entrance exam at the youngest age and with the highest score.
And coincidentally, they both passed the family interview with the highest score as well.
They thought everything was over, and they just had to wait for the entrance.
But little did they know, at the new student’s entrance ceremony, the great Vice-Principal Wilson declared the couple as the model family of the academy and invited them to the stage to share their family management tips in front of hundreds of dragons.
That wasn’t all. As the ceremony was about to end, amidst cheers from the vice-principal and a group of onlookers, the couple shared a kiss in front of everyone, bringing the ceremony to another peak.
It also pushed them into the abyss of extreme social death.
Now, two years later, to avoid repeating the same mistake, they deliberately formulated the Ceremony Won’t Be a Social Death’ plan for this time.
Vice-Principal Wilson might be eccentric, but his passion is the real deal. He must be living his dream job.
