Chapter 124 Good Brothers Band Together
Dressed in the dark red light of the setting sun, Chu Nan pushed open the dormitory door in a happy mood and was immediately shocked by the situation in the dormitory.
The small dormitory was in chaos. All kinds of random things were thrown to the ground. Apart from a small area at the door that was relatively quiet, there was almost no place to stand.
Dong Fang was lying on the ground at this moment. His head reached under his bed, and he moved his fat body inwards with difficulty, as if he was looking for something.
âHey, Dong Fang, whatâs going on? Could it be that thereâs a thief in the dormitory?â Chu Nan asked in disbelief.
Thinking about it, it was impossible.
Although the West Cloud Academy was not ranked in the entire Earth Federation, it was second to none on West Cloud Planet. The facilities in the academy were perfect and strict. Coupled with a security system bought from the Seres Security Company at a high price, how could a studentâs dormitory be visited by thieves?
Dong Fang replied and wanted to get up, but he knocked his head against the bottom of the bed and immediately stopped talking.
Fortunately, he was a third-stage Overlord Body Martial Artist after all. Although he was not outstanding, he would not be in trouble if his head hit the bottom of the bed.
After waiting for a moment, he crawled out from under the bed with difficulty. He held a disc in his hand and looked excited.
âI thought that this thing had long been lost. I didnât expect it to be under the bed!â
Chu Nan speechlessly looked at Dong Fang who had dirty hair and shook his head.
âI say, what are you doing?â
âCanât you see? Iâm packing my luggage.â Dong Fang waved the disc in his hand, âIf not for this, Iâm afraid I wouldnât have been able to find this precious disc that I obtained from the cultural relic market.â âItâs something from more than 800 years ago. Whatâs there to treasure?â Chu Nan was puzzled and was stunned, âAlso, pack your luggage? Why do you need to pack your luggage?â
âPack my luggage and leave. What else can I do?â Dong Fang had an âyouâre asking nonsenseâ expression.
âLeave? You? Where are you going?â Chu Nan was even more stunned.
Dong Fang chuckled and stood up. He arrived beside Chu Nan and grabbed his shoulder.
âChu Nan, do you still remember what I told you before?â
âYou told me at least a hundred thousand things. How can I remember?â Chu Nan rolled his eyes.
âIâve said it before. The two of us are good brothers, so we must band together. Therefore⊠since youâve taken a break from the academy, I naturally have to accompany you, right?â
Chu Nan widened his eyes. âDonât tell me youâreâŠâ
âYes, thatâs right. Iâve already submitted my withdrawal application to the academy in the afternoon and have been approved.â
âDamn!â Chu Nan could not help but shout, âAre you crazy? Why did you suddenly drop out?â
Dong Fang shrugged with a nonchalant expression.
âI donât want to stay here anymore. Whatâs so strange about dropping out?â
Chu Nan frowned and looked at him. He discovered that he did not seem to be joking and his expression became serious.
âTo be honest. AlrightâŠâ Dong Fang sighed and sat down. He pointed at Chu Nanâs bed and gestured for him to sit down. âThe truth is⊠wait, what I said was the truth. I donât want to waste time in West Cloud Academy, so I chose to drop out.â
âSpecifically?â Chu Nan frowned and asked.
âTo be specific, itâs⊠You should know that I was unhappy at home, so I escaped from home and came to West Cloud Academy to study, right?â
Although Dong Fang had never introduced his familyâs situation to Chu Nan in detail, the two of them had been together for nearly two years, so he still revealed a lot.
According to the situation revealed by Dong Fang, he should be from a large family. He had always enjoyed a superior life that ordinary civilians like Chu Nan could not imagine since he was young.
However, Dong Fang was unwilling to comply with the arrangements his family made for him. He escaped from his family and deliberately joined the inconspicuous West Cloud Academy
However, the problem was, why did he want to withdraw from West Cloud Academy now?
âItâs very simple. Iâll be 18 years old in the second half of the year. According to the agreement with my family, I can be a little willful before Iâm 18 years old, but after Iâm 18 years old, I canât do whatever I want. I have to listen to some of my familyâs arrangements,â Dong Fang explained.
Chu Nan had a blank expression as if he was listening to an unknown language.
After a while, he shook his head and thought to himself that the internal relationship of a large family was really incomprehensible.
Or could it be that it was completely Dong Fangâs personal special situation and could not be considered the practice of those large families?
âThen why do you have to choose to withdraw from the academy on the same day as me? Also, why did the academy agree to your withdrawal application so easily? They clearly donât agree to my withdrawal. Even grading a leave application is so awkward.â
âNonsense, Iâm not a symbol of the academy like you.â Dong Fang rolled his eyes at Chu Nan, âAlright, to be honest, I used my family to pressure the academy a little. Otherwise, they wouldnât be so happy. As for choosing the same day as you⊠thatâs naturally what I said earlier. Weâre good brothers, so we should band together.â
In order to drop out of school, this guy would actually use his family to pressure the academyâs leaders.
Moreover, if his family really had the ability to pressure West Cloud Academy, it was enough to prove that his family was stronger than Chu Nan had imagined.
However, this was not Chu Nanâs fault. He only cared about Dong Fang himself.
Hearing Dong Fang repeat âgood brothers band togetherâ twice, he was more or less touched.
Dong Fang was the only good friend he had made in West Cloud Academy. The two had gotten along very well in these nearly two years.
Now that he had chosen to take a leave of absence, Dong Fang had directly chosen to drop out of school and return home in the future. It was still alright for him, but the meaning behind Dong Fangâs words was very obvious that he wanted to accept the arrangements of his family in the future. In the future, it would probably be very difficult for the two sides to casually meet. This friendship that he had finally made would definitely fade away in the future.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan felt a trace of melancholy.
âTsk, youâre thinking too much. What era is this now? The era of the Great Milky Way! Itâs not a problem even if weâre 180 light-years away. Weâll be there in a spaceship in a few days. Whatâs wrong with meeting? Moreover, if thereâs really no other way, thereâs still the Milky Way Network. We can meet through the Internet at any time. Why are you so sentimental like a girl?â
âTsk, youâre the one whoâs like a girl.â Chu Nan cursed and rubbed his face to shake off the chaotic emotions in his mind, âIn that case⊠the procedures for your withdrawal have been settled, so youâre packing up and planning to leave?â âThatâs right.â
âWhen do you plan to leave?â
âWhen are you leaving?â Dong Fang asked. âI just booked the spacecraft tickets for the day after tomorrow.â
âAlright, Iâll make a trip with you the day after tomorrow.â
Dong Fang snapped his fingers and opened his personal terminal. After a series of operations, he gestured at Chu Nan to win.
âAlright, done. Iâm on the same ship as you.â
Looking at Dong Fangâs proud expression, Chu Nan could not help but shake his head and curse softly.
