My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 440 - 149: The First Lesson (Part 2)2

"The principal has been working in education for over two hundred years and is considered a leading figure in our Blue Star Empire’s education sector." Lin You noticed Du Xixi staring at the old principal’s departing figure, so he patted her on the shoulder with a gentle tone, "Forty years ago, soone kidnapped two of our school’s students and demanded a huge ransom within the campus. The security personnel outside couldn’t get close, and it was the old principal who faced the enemy alone, saving them with just one leg."

Du Xixi’s gaze involuntarily focused on the old principal’s left leg. She could tell that the old principal’s leg was very stiff, almost dragging as he walked.

"Is that a prosthetic limb?" Du Xixi frowned and asked. The dical advancents in the Star Era were advanced enough that there was no reason not to reattach a severed limb.

Upon hearing Du Xixi’s question, Lin You’s face showed a hint of regret: "The old principal’s health has never been good. Forty years ago, he was already nearing three hundred years old, with internal organ failure, and the rescue team arrived late, so..."

There was no ti to reattach the severed leg.

Du Xixi let out a breath that had been held in her heart for a long ti, feeling both sad and regretful. No wonder Zhang Ye was caught by the night patrol security. It seems that the security at Blue Star University had grown increasingly strict over the decades?

No one hopes for a tragedy like that to happen again.

After saying goodbye to Lin You, Du Xixi quickly caught up with the teachers and students who had returned to the Food Departnt. Starting this afternoon, these students would officially begin classes, and in the morning, it was ti to formally enter the Food Departnt.

Du Xixi didn’t want to miss this important mont.

Perhaps to wait for Du Xixi, Wenren Yu was leading the group slowly, appreciating the beautiful scenery they saw every day. It wasn’t until Du Xixi, surrounded by chanical Soldiers, caught up that they quickened their pace towards the Food Departnt.

On the first day of registration, everyone went straight to the field for military training, even changing into the military training uniforms they had picked up in their dorms. So today, it was the first ti these students ca to the Food Departnt as students—not as visitors undergoing an assessnt.

This new identity naturally brought new feelings, just like when Du Xixi accompanied Miao Miao to enroll; these students saw a different Food Departnt through their own eyes.

"Professor, I’m a bit nervous." Du Xixi was at the back of the group of students, leisurely watching everyone sighing in awe. Unexpectedly, a female student in front of her turned around, shyly speaking to Du Xixi.

When Du Xixi looked carefully, she realized this female student was none other than Shan Zhi, one of the first students to pass the assessnt.

At that ti, only five students passed the evaluation, and Du Xixi chose another student, Shen Yiyi, to ntor, who always protected Shan Zhi.

Back then, Shen Yiyi was always learning from Du Xixi. Although He Yuan treated Shan Zhi well, Shan Zhi couldn’t help but cluster around Du Xixi and Shen Yiyi. Gradually, what started as one-on-one teaching with Du Xixi and He Yuan turned into two-on-two teaching.

So Du Xixi had a pretty deep impression of Shan Zhi, finding this little sister quite good except for being a bit shy and timid. Thinking this, Du Xixi put on a caring smile: "What’s wrong? Are you nervous about your future studies?"

"Yes, I’m worried I won’t do well in my future coursework." Shan Zhi didn’t co from a good background; even her college tuition was funded by the Empire. So her lack of confidence persisted, even though Du Xixi and He Yuan had praised her a lot, she still instinctively doubted herself.

"Silly girl." Du Xixi always unintentionally assud a senior’s deanor when facing students, even though there wasn’t much of an age difference between her and Shan Zhi. "Getting into Blue Star University and our Food Departnt is proof enough of your excellence. You’re one of the students we all vetted together, entirely capable of staying; why worry so much?"

Du Xixi always maintained such a gentle attitude. Seeing and hearing this, Shan Zhi felt warm inside, her restlessness easing.

Shen Yiyi, who was walking in front of Shan Zhi, noticed the conversation behind and turned around, first nodding politely to Du Xixi, then holding Shan Zhi’s hand and asking, "Still nervous? You’ve been tense for several days now."

With an embarrassed look at Du Xixi, Shan Zhi softly told Shen Yiyi, "I’m much better now, the professor just comforted ."
