After being reborn, I became the apple of my enemy's eye.

The plaque with the inscription by Yan Yun has been completed.

Outside the academy, drums and gongs were being played, and everyone was waiting for Yan Yun.

Upon discovering Yan Yun's return, someone immediately ran over to deliver the good news. He congratulated Yan Yun, saying, "Congratulations, Miss! Your academy can hang up its plaque today."

He placed the long rope in his hand into Yan Yun's hand, "Miss, you only need to turn this gently to let down the red silk covering you."

Recalling that day, Zheng Jihua kept urging him to hurry up, but he didn't expect it to arrive so quickly.

Yan Yun looked at the long rope in his hand and listened to the sounds of gongs and drums all around him. The academy, which had almost disappeared a long time ago, was becoming more and more lively.

Because it was close to the city gate, people coming and going would sometimes stop to look.

Yan Yun was naturally unaware that although Zheng Jihua hadn't come in person, he had made many arrangements.

They even hired acrobats to perform.

The exquisite lion dance attracted even more and more onlookers.

Qing'er and her attendants stood guard in front of Yan Yun.

Fortunately, those people just stood quietly to the side and watched, without stepping forward.

The little dumpling followed Yan Yun, watching the acrobatic performance and finding it all very exciting.

"Sister, sister, what is this?"

She pointed to the red cloth above her head.

The little dumpling immediately thought, "Sister, if you pull that rope, won't the signboard be revealed?"

Yan Yun nodded.

The little dumpling immediately said excitedly, "Then sister, pull it down so I can see."

The person who brought the plaque immediately reminded Yan Yun, "Miss, you'll have to wait a little longer; the auspicious time is almost here."

Right after the lion dance performance in front of the academy.

Because the lion dance troupe immediately dispersed.

All eyes turned to Yan Yun, and someone next to her said, "Miss, it's okay, you can pull the rope now."

After being reminded by the other party.

Yan Yun pulled the rope off his hand.

The red cloth then slowly fell down.

The words Yan Yun personally inscribed are now depicted on the plaque.

Although the handwriting is somewhat delicate, the name is memorable at a glance.

The four characters "Jingning Academy" also came into their view.

There are naturally many academies in the city.

However, it was Yan Yun who unveiled the silk cloth, and there were only Yan Yun and a few servants standing in front of the academy.

The people around whispered, "What's going on?"

The other person scoffed, "Don't you know?"

The other person craned their neck, wanting to know, and someone who knew the inside story told him, "This is a bookstore that Zheng Jihua bought for her daughter."

"Buy a school for the little girl?"

"That's right, little girl."

People around him scoffed, and some even saw that Yan Yun hadn't taken down the notice yet, and said directly to the people next to him that this was complete nonsense and a desecration of the classics.

She's just a little girl, nothing to worry about, why should everyone care so much?

There are just as many voices of opposition as those of clarity.

After Yan Yun pulled down the rope, the sounds of gongs and drums around them became even louder, and even the little dumpling covered his ears, finding it noisy.

Yan Yun, of course, wouldn't hear those whispers about the details.

Noticing the stares directed at her in front of the academy, and feeling somewhat conspicuous, she handed the rope to someone nearby and led the little dumpling into the academy.

Although Yan Yun personally unveiled the sign, nothing inside the academy was ready yet.

This grand display was not my original intention. Although I left Baima Academy, I am no longer working hard at this academy for the sake of fighting.

Yan Yun felt that she needed this academy.

Zheng Jihua clearly did not understand what he meant.

He wanted to thoroughly humiliate those guys at the academy, which is why he made such a grand show of attracting people to stop and look away.

However, Zheng Jihua's actions were merely to protect himself, which is naturally a good thing.

The little dumpling stood to the side and said, "Sister is so impressive."

Yan Yun knew perfectly well that the grandeur the little dumpling was seeing was not something he had brought about.

Rather, it was Zheng Jihua who pushed him out with countless sums of money. His current status was only due to Zheng Jihua's instructions.

He can never be separated from Zheng Jihua.

Yan Yun looked at the little dumpling, but he already had a plan in mind.

Another notice was added outside the academy. Although many people did not understand its meaning, some people could understand it.

Under Yan Yun's instructions, Qing'er arranged the academy's progress in an orderly manner.

The academy was quickly divided into complete zones.

The academy not only had a place to practice calligraphy, but also a place to borrow books.

Any woman who wants to learn and borrow books can come to the academy.

However, Yan Yun only came to the academy for women.

Yan Yun also needs to protect the women who are willing to come to the academy, since men have many other places to go if they want books.

Women, however, are affected by men.

Moreover, the backyard was full of women, so Yan Yun made this decision.

Because after the division of labor, not long after.

Both the front and back courtyards of the academy were kept spotless, and everything was neatly arranged.

I took apart all the unwanted old items and put them in a corner.

Because of their initiative, Yan Yun gave them a considerable amount of wages.

The work they did wasn't free.

They pushed and shoved, saying no, since Yan Yun had allowed them to stay in the backyard of the academy instead of the dilapidated house.

Yan Yun asked Qing'er to tell them.

If they don't accept the money, then they shouldn't have come here. After all, if they come here, the young lady will pay them. Even if they don't accept the money, someone else will.

The woman leading the group chuckled softly and reassured those around her, "Everyone, please accept them."

She looked at Yan Yun and thanked him.

Yan Yun waved his hand.

Although it took some time to build the academy, it was completed quickly.

As evening fell, Yan Yun stood at the door waiting for Nan Yunjing to arrive. She wanted to ask him about the events of the previous night, and where Ru Qing's sister had been placed.

However, the person who came was not Nan Yunjing, but another woman, who was exceptionally polite to Shu Shu.

"Miss, we should go back now."

The little dumpling was clearly disappointed that the person who came was not Nan Yunjing.

Yan Yun's plans are constantly being disrupted by Nan Yunjing.

She thought the man would come, but he didn't, and she knew she wouldn't see him no matter how long she waited.

Yan Yun led Qing'er to chase after the little dumpling.

Yan Yun pulled Shu Shu's hand away and wrote on it: "Can you take me to see Nan Yun Jing?"

The little dumpling smiled.

"Of course you can. If you want to see him, I'll take you."

Yan Yun followed the little dumpling towards Nan Yunjing's residence. The only difference between the residence and Zheng Yuan's was that the old house opposite was much older and gave off a gloomy feeling.

The little dumpling wasn't scared at all, and pulled Yan Yun to go inside.

Yan Yun hesitated for a moment, but the woman beside him also tried to stop him.

“Miss, this is not in accordance with the rules. We need to send someone in to deliver the message first.”

The little dumpling said, "If it's me, do I need to go in and announce my arrival? I can just go in."

She took Yan Yun's hand and went straight into Nan Yunjing's courtyard.

It was called a courtyard, but it was far too dilapidated and no one took care of it at all.

Yan Yun wondered why Nan Yunjing would live in such a dilapidated courtyard.

The little dumpling led Yan Yun forward with practiced ease, saying, "Because you said you wanted to find him, that's why I brought you here. Don't be afraid."

She spoke up to comfort Yan Yun.

Yan Yun was naturally not afraid, with Qing'er and the two attendants following behind him.

What Yan Yun found strange was that, given the living conditions, where would he place Ru Qing's sister after bringing her back?

Just as the little dumpling was leading the way forward, it bumped into a wall of people.

She looked up and saw the person who had appeared.

It is Nagumo Kei.

The little dumpling exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Nan!"

"What are you doing running around in someone else's yard?"

Upon hearing Nan Yunjing's rebuke, the little dumpling immediately explained, "I brought them in. My sister said she was coming to find you."

Yan Yun was also pushed forward by the little dumpling. Yan Yun steadied himself and stood still. She nodded, confirming that she had indeed come to find him.
