Atlas of Heaven and Man

Inside the examination hall, Zhong Wu was carried out. His weight of over two hundred kilograms was manageable, but his wide frame caused his hands and feet to dangle off the stretcher. The paramedics had to each support a limb as they carried him to the nearby emergency room.

However, the doctors in the emergency room all shook their heads, indicating they couldn't handle it, so he was sent back out.

This back-and-forth caused quite a stir, and the loss of an advanced student who was supposed to provide resistance meant they needed to find a replacement and announce it publicly, which made the commotion even greater.

After figuring out what was happening, the examinees became excited, shouting, "It's Zhong Wu! It's Zhong Wu, the advanced student in charge of the exam! Look, look, it's him on the stretcher!"

"He's being carried out? The emergency room won't treat him?"

"I guess he's beyond saving?"

"Even the emergency room can't save him, how badly was he beaten? Haha, which examinee did this? Wow, who's so awesome?!"

"It must be one of the students who just went in! I wonder which one? Good job! They're like my reborn parents! Haha, if he were in front of me, I'd kneel to him."

For some reason, the remaining examinees felt a surge of inexplicable comfort in their bodies. The pent-up frustration in their chests could finally be released! Even those who were holding back to maintain composure secretly cheered in their hearts.

"No loud noises!"

The female teacher scolded, but this time she didn't use the rules to suppress them, only asking the examinees to return to their seats, without stopping them from continuing to talk.

She also knew Zhong Wu, a very strong senior student who received a lot of resources. Now that he was beaten like this, was it the doing of that student who just went in?

Recalling the feeling when Chen Chuan passed by her just now, she immediately confirmed her judgment.

Inside the emergency room, Fang Zhiming also saw the scene of Zhong Wu being brought in and then pushed out. 'No way, I just got in, and you're here too? Oh, you're going out again...'

While finding it hard to believe, he suddenly relaxed, figuring out what had happened. He let out a 'hey' and swung his fist hard, but this inevitably aggravated his injury, causing him to grimace. After a while, he looked up at the ceiling and smiled happily.

In the eastern district of Yangzhi City, on the national highway, an extended Lanhui luxury car slowly drove up and stopped there.

Meng Shu sat in the back seat of the car, with a female assistant wearing black-rimmed glasses beside her. She asked, "Is Wu Yi's retest today?"

The female assistant replied seriously, "Yes, Miss."

Meng Shu said, "Go ask, I want to know the results now." The female assistant immediately opened the door and got out of the car, then went to give instructions to the people who followed behind.

In the front passenger seat, an elderly man who looked like a butler turned his head and said, "Miss, are you so optimistic about that classmate of yours? You played together when you were young, but people's hearts change easily. Can he still meet your expectations now?"

Meng Shu said, "Uncle Yi, my evaluation of him doesn't carry any childhood bias, and I won't be emotional.

I'm almost eighteen years old, and I need a trustworthy client with a clean background to serve me and the family. Only then can the company go further in the long run. He's the most suitable candidate I've seen."

Uncle Yi said, "I've seen Chen Chuan's profile. He had good grades in middle school. Before applying to Wu Da, he hadn't joined any boxing clubs or had any training experience, yet he was able to get into Wu Da on his own. Miss's vision is indeed good. With a little training, this kind of talent will be a good choice."

At this moment, footsteps came, and the female assistant leaned to the car window, saying cautiously, "Miss, that Chen Chuan… passed Wu Yi's retest."

Meng Shu didn't say much, looking ahead and saying, "Let's go."

"Wait a moment, Miss." Uncle Yi suddenly said, "If Miss wants to gain the allegiance of this young man, I might be able to think of a way."

Meng Shu looked at him and said, "Uncle Yi, I remember you're from Yangzhi?"

"Yes."

Uncle Yi sighed and said, "I'm old. I followed the Fifth Young Master everywhere in my early years. Now my body is still okay, but I'm tired. It's better to retire in my hometown and keep an eye on this talent for Miss."

Meng Shu said, "I understand Chen Chuan's character. It's impossible to force him with harsh methods. You can stay, but don't do anything unnecessary."

Uncle Yi said, "Miss, I know my limits and won't do anything that would embarrass you. Being an upperclassman at Wu Yi isn't easy, especially for students without that kind of background. The more outstanding they are, the more pressure they face." He smiled peacefully and said, "Miss, I won't actively do anything. I'll only offer a choice when he needs it. I believe he will understand Miss's good intentions."

Meng Shu said, "Uncle Yi, remember your promise."

The front and rear doors of the car opened simultaneously. The female assistant got in, while Uncle Yi got out of the car and pushed the door shut from the outside, taking two steps back and bowing to wave goodbye to the car.

Meng Shu looked ahead and said, "Let's go, back to the central city."

The headlights in front suddenly lit up, illuminating the road. A lead car drove out first, and the luxury car followed, with a line of cars and armored vehicles closely following behind, heading towards the central city along the avenue.

Inside the Wu Yi Academy, Chen Chuan stood outside the examination hall for a while, finished the beef jerky, and then walked out of the school gate. He retrieved his car in the square and headed home.

Yu Wan was knitting a sweater. When she saw him come in, she pretended not to care and asked, "Chuan'er, how did the exam go?"

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Aunt, Uncle, I passed."

"Phew…"

Yu Wan first relaxed, put down the sweater in her hands, and let out a long breath. She glared at Nian Fuli and said, "It's all your fault!" Then, as if she had thought of something, she turned her head and wiped away tears.

Nian Fuli was also overjoyed when he heard the news, but he still maintained his composure, pretending to be indifferent and saying, "Alright, alright, Yu Wan, he passed, not failed. It's not a big deal."

Yu Wan turned her head and said, "Can't I be happy? Can't I be happy?"

Nian Fuli muttered, "When Xiao Qian passed the military academy in the army, I didn't see you so happy…"

"How can that be the same? Qian'er still has your brothers in the army to take care of him."

"I won't argue with you."

Yu Wan got up and walked forward, snatching the newspaper from Nian Fuli's hand, and said angrily, "What are you pretending for? You don't even know you're holding it upside down."

Nian Fuli was a little embarrassed and coughed. "The light in the house needs to be changed. My eyesight has been getting worse lately."

The younger cousins could also see their parents' emotions. They jumped up, making 'ooh ooh ooh' sounds, and clapped their hands non-stop. Anyway, they were just happy together.

Nian Fuli said, "Xiao Chuan, have you eaten yet?"

Chen Chuan said, "Not yet."

The latest chapters are available on Liǔ Jiǔ Shū Bā!

Yu Wan said, "Your uncle said he wanted to wait for you to come back. This is perfect timing."

Nian Fuli stood up, waved his hand, and said, "Set the table. Xiao Chuan, let's have a couple of drinks today."

"Let's eat, let's eat!" the two little ones cheered.

Yu Wan smiled and went to the kitchen, bringing out plates of hot dishes. After everyone was seated, she took a cup and poured Nian Fuli a cup of yellow wine, then said to Chen Chuan, "Xiao Chuan, you practice martial arts, so you don't need to drink. Your uncle can drink. I bought you soda."

"I want some too, I want some too."

Nian Fuli chuckled and muttered, "Nosy," but he didn't force Chen Chuan.

Chen Chuan smiled. After Nian Fuli had eaten a few bites of food, he picked up his cup, used the soda as a substitute for wine, toasted Nian Fuli, and then said, "Uncle, Aunt, after school starts, I'll move to the academy."

Nian Fuli said with emotion, "That's how it should be. You can be considered promising now. Your aunt and I are relieved. Study hard at Wu Da. I don't have the vision to see how far you'll go in the future, but just remember to come back and see your aunt and younger siblings often."

Chen Chuan said with a smile, "Uncle, I'm at Wu Da, not far from here, just a few steps away. If Uncle doesn't mind me being an eyesore, then I'll come back often to taste the home-cooked dishes Aunt makes."

Yu Wan said happily, "If Chuan'er likes to eat them, Aunt will cook them for you every day."

At this moment, Nian Fuli suddenly slapped the table, making a loud bang. Yu Wan was startled, glared at him, and complained, "What are you doing, scaring me?"

Nian Fuli rubbed the back of his head and said, "I have to go back and find Wei Laohu's mop. Yes, find it."

"What mop?" Yu Wan was a little confused.

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "There's no rush yet. School hasn't started yet. It will take a few more days for Captain Wei to get the news."

Nian Fuli chuckled a few times. He rolled up his sleeves, picked up his chopsticks, and pointed. "Didn't he want me to feed him? I'll feed him. Let's see how he dares to yell in front of me in the future, this Wei Laohu."

Yu Wan muttered, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Nian Fuli waved his hand and said, "This is a man's business. Don't worry about it."

Yu Wan said unhappily, "I'm too lazy to care about you."

Chen Chuan then said to Yu Wan, "Aunt, there are some things that I can't conveniently bring with me. I'd like to leave them here with you first."

Yu Wan thought for a moment and said, "Are they things from your second aunt and second uncle? Leave them here with Aunt. When you graduate and have a place to settle down, then take them back."

At the same time, inside the Wu Yi Academy, the entire re-examination had ended. Gao Shi returned to his office, picked up the phone, connected it, and said to the other end:

"You know about what happened in the examination hall, right? Yes, that kid is interesting. I think he fought well. We must cultivate such students well, but whether he can do it and stand firm depends on himself."

The voice on the other end came: "This good seedling has just emerged, don't put too many things on him, lest he collapse. We have to support him for a while first."

Gao Shi said: "Where are the good seedlings grown under the eaves? Oh, do you think everyone is like you, finding a good wife and relying on a good father-in-law?"

That voice: "Alright, Lao Gao, you're joking about me. It seems you're in a good mood. I should find more things for you to do…"

Before Gao Shi could speak, he immediately looked solemn and said, "Alright, stop talking about these things. I'll do what I should do. You are a school director in Jiang Wei's office, you are responsible for handling it well."

The voice responded steadily: "As long as it complies with Wu Yi's rules, I can suppress it for you!"
