Chapter 628: Chapter 289 - The Eagle at Our Home_1

Having taken several of the girls a little further away, the counselor spoke in a soft voice, "What’s up with you girls? Sure, you’re in the right here, but you definitely injured that guy’s hand! The school leaders just called you in for a bit of a talk, it’s just a formality - they don’t require you to pay for the medical expenses. Are you so set in your ways?"

The counselor for their class was a female teacher, just a few years older than they were. She was generally cheerful and got along quite well with the students. As she lectured them, Miss Xu Xiaoyan started feeling a bit embarrassed, "I thought I was called to the Education Office because I was going to be punished. I was ready for it, I’m not scared of them punishing me!"

The counselor chuckled at the girl’s reaction, "Alright, stop. Think about it, you’re a scholarship student, would the school punish you lightly? You all get back to the dorms quickly! The guy’s family is local, I suspect they would be visiting the school regarding this. Don’t come out, I’ll handle whatever else there is..."

What the counselor didn’t say was - this girl’s elder sisters were college students in the provincial city, one even being a graduate student. Apart from that, just being a scholarship student, the school wouldn’t easily expel her. If anything like that happened, how it’d be laughed about in other schools!

Don’t mistake the school as a sacred venue without any competition. There’s still rivalry and competition among them. The prestigious Provincial University Law School couldn’t handle such a small matter. To cause such a fuss that it was leading to a student’s expulsion, it’d embarrass them province-wide. It’d be just as embarrassing if the student chose to drop out!

Concluding this, the counselor hastily went back, probably into another round of negotiations.

"Wow, who would have thought! I didn’t expect you to be the one Xiao Xingxing, you’re usually so quiet. But when it mattered, you really put your foot down! Truly, don’t judge a book by its cover!" As soon as the counselor was out of sight, one of the girls blurted.

"Why should we let him off easily when he was clearly offensive? He knew I was annoyed, yet he kept bothering me, trying to show off his literary talent, right? I stepped on him so that he remembers the pain the next time he tries to write a love letter. Let’s see if he ever tries writing one again..." Miss Xu Xiaoyan mimicked.

"Serves him right!" another girl chimed in. "That guy, because his family is local, he had the audacity to send love letters to several girls. Xiao Xing stood up for us, the girls at our school!"

"Sure, she did stand up for us. But what the counselor said earlier, that the guy’s family is local, there’s likely trouble..." Yangyang expressed her concern from the side.

"What is there to fear? Let them cause a fuss if they want to! If they really want to, they can drag me to court!" Xu Xiaoyan dismissed. "I’ve already said that worst-case, I just won’t go to school. I’ve been wanting to quit anyway!"

"..."

While this group of girls were packaging in their discussion, nearing the entrance of their dormitory building when Miss Xu Xiaoyan suddenly looked up, craned her neck, and stopped moving.

The other girls were puzzled, asking, "What’s wrong?"

Miss Xu Xiaoyan didn’t directly answer, instead, she mumbled to herself, "The two eagles up in the sky, they look somewhat like the two golden eagles from home? But today isn’t the weekend, right? Oh no... it couldn’t be that he came to plant the tree, could it?"

"Oh, Miss Xu, aren’t you bragging a bit? Your family actually keeps golden eagles?" As soon as the other girls heard this, they instantly stirred up a commotion.

In the dormitory, it’s not like this girl ever liked to show off. Besides knowing that she was engaged to a guy who raised cattle at home, this girl hardly shared anything else about herself. Not to mention, the animals they raised were protected wildlife species, sharing this might attract unwanted trouble. Most importantly, she was afraid that if word got out, someone might take the animals away. These creatures, although others would find them ferocious and intimidating, were as tame as puppies in front of Yan Fei and herself - she quite liked them.

Because she barely ever discussed it, the girls were pretty shocked when they heard this sudden revelation.

Miss Xu Xiaoyan ignored the discussion around her. As she continued observing the sky, the more it seemed to resemble something familiar.

It’s no wonder why she felt uncertain. Despite it being a city, it was still quite rare to witness two large eagles circling in the sky - or perhaps she had been thinking about the guy who raised the golden eagles so much that when she saw the two eagles, she thought they looked somewhat like her own...

"I can’t just stand here, I need to try on the rooftop..." She lost herself in her thoughts for a moment, then after leaving a sentence behind she swiftly ran upstairs.

"How are you going to test it?" As soon as the other girls saw her run, their curiosity made them rush to follow her upstairs.

Under normal circumstances, the small door to the rooftop, which was put there for the convenience of students to sun-dry their quilts, was left open. When Xu Xiaoyan got there, she immediately bent down and started fumbling through her bag.

The other girls asked, "What are you looking for? You’ve got a telescope?"

"No!" The girl continued searching in her bag while answering. "I’m looking for a whistle, I remember putting it in the bag... Here it is..."

She said as she pulled a small handmade bamboo whistle out of her bag. It was green with a hint of yellow, and there was a small hole carved in it.

As she prepared to blow into it, she glanced around at the other girls and then hesitated before mumbling, "The whistle isn’t well made, the sound isn’t pleasant. You all should cover your ears..."

It really wasn’t pleasant sounding. The whistle was piercing to the ear.

But you can’t really blame the girl. Yan Fei’s craftmanship was simply too poor. He would blow his own whistle to summon the two golden eagles. She was very envious of this but couldn’t mimic the loud whistling sound. So, he made a bamboo whistle for her and trained the two golden eagles to come when they heard it.

After a few blows, the girl seemed a bit discouraged. Looking up at the sky, she said, "It seems like they aren’t ours. If they were ours, they’d come down when they hear my whistle..."

"Blow it again. I feel like they’re moving in this direction. The city is so noisy, maybe they didn’t hear it before! Blow it again..." While the girl was about to give up, the other girls wouldn’t have it.

It was so fascinating! They had only seen such scenes in TV shows or movies before. In the popular swordsman series, the leading male and female characters kept two snowy eagles, which were deeply loved.

With a whistle on the ground, the eagle in the sky would descend, that scene was something to be admired!

But they hadn’t seen this happen in reality. If you wanted to see someone who had raised golden eagles in reality, the place was called the Provincial City Zoo...

The girl also felt like the two eagles circling in the sky were gradually moving closer, so she continued to blow a few times.

This time, it was more evident. The two golden eagles had not only moved closer, but they also started to fly lower....

"Blow it again, blow it again..." A group of girls were so excited that two of them even had flushed faces. Even the few girls who happened to come to sun the quilts, they couldn’t resist watching the spectacle.

As the sound of the whistle rose again, this time, as it was much closer now, the two golden eagles responded immediately with two screeches, and flew towards them...
