Chapter 2826
At that moment, Yannis took the man's arm and introduced him with a smile on her face, "Thalia, this is my friend, Rowette. Thanks to him, you can enroll in Duke Martial Arts Academy"
"Rowette, this is my cousin, Thalia. There were some delays yesterday due to some matters, and I could not sign her up yesterday. Could you do me a favor and sign her up?" Yannis asked in a sweet voice. Her body was pressing against Rowette as she showed a weak Rowette gladly held Yannis in his arms and looked at Thalia.
appearance.
His gaze swept over Thalia from head to toe without any hesitation. Finally, he nodded his head in satisfaction and softly said, "Not bad!"
"Don't worry about registration matters. I'll take her to register once the banquet is over," he said.
Hearing this, Yannis was overjoyed. Quickly, she said to her cousin, "Thalia, thank Rowette quickly."
"T-Thank you, Mr. Rowette!" Although she felt a little uncomfortable under Rowette's gaze, Thalia held back her feelings and thanked him.
Yannis hugged Rowette and kissed him in public, smiling the whole time.
His interest was instantly piqued. He could not be bothered about the new students anymore. He immediately instructed, "I have some matters to attend to. Help yourselves." After that, he whispered something to Yannis.
She smiled sweetly and then said to Thalia, "I have something to talk to Rowette about. You can walk around the academy yourself."
After that, the two left intimately.
Thalia did not expect such a thing to happen at all. She was stunned and did not know what to do.
Among the freshmen, quite a few of them had already started discussing in low voices.
"So this is how Thalia could enter into the academy!"
"She sold out her own cousin in exchange for a chance to enter the school. What a disgrace!"
"How can she stand a man like Rowette? I almost vomited."
"Forget it. Some of us have unique tastes!"
Hearing these discussions, Thalia suddenly became angry and embarrassed. She wanted to say something. Her mouth moved, but she did not know how to refute them. On the contrary, Yozell stared at the group of people and snorted, "Shut up! What a group of idiots."
"Yozell, what did you say?!"
"Yozell, did you really think that you are our boss just because you are a captain?"
Some people were dissatisfied.
Yozell glared back at them and argued, "You can't judge a book by its cover. Don't you know who Rowette is?"
"Don't underestimate the fact that he's only at the middle stage of the Black Level. His father, Francies, is the Head Teacher and also the assistant dean of the academy." "Just knowing him is enough for you to achieve success."
The others could not help but feel surprised when they heard what Yozell said.
"For real? Rowette has such a strong background?"
"The assistant dean, Mr. Francies, is his father? Is he that powerful?"
"In that case, Thalia's cousin must be on her way to success."
Of course, some people still looked disdainful.
"So what if he has such a great background? He's just a useless piece of trash."
"We are here to study martial arts. In the path of martial arts, what we rely on are ourselves and our strength. To have to rely on others
and connections is completely unorthodox." "Rowette is old enough to be her father. What kind of love is there between the two? I'm going to throw up!"
"I'm here at Duke Martial Arts Academy to study martial arts. I don't have the mood to care about such gossip."
Yozell did not pay attention to these arguments. Instead, he squeezed out a smile, approached Thalia, and said, "Thalia, what I said just now was just a joke. Don't mind it. If you had told me earlier that your cousin knew Rowette, then the incident yesterday would not have happened." She looked at Yozell trying to curry favor with her and felt sick for no reason.
He had been mocking her earlier. In the end, because her cousin was acquainted with the great figures of the academy, his expression immediately changed. He was like a chameleon.
"You all should go ahead with your plans. I'll explore myself." Thalia did not want to talk to Yozell anymore, so she turned around and left.
Half an hour later, she received a call from her cousin. When she returned to the main building, she saw her cousin tidying up her clothes.
Although her cousin tried her best to tidy up, Thalia could still see the mess of her clothes. She even saw Yannis' torn underwear.
In such a situation, although Thalia was young, she knew what had happened to her cousin.
Instantly, her face turned red, and she said, "Yannis, y-you aren't married yet. How can you and Rowette..."
Hearing this, Yannis paused for a moment and then said, "Thalia, you're not young anymore. It's not a big deal. You have to remember that this is Micovia, not China. Don't be so old fashioned."
"B-But..." Thalia still could not accept it. "But he is not suitable to be your boyfriend. He's old and you're young. Plus..."
Yannis was stunned for a moment,
then she narrowed her eyes and asked, "Why do age and appearance matter? What matters is Rowette's status. He is the son of the assistant dean of Duke Martial Arts Academy, Francies. If he marries me,
status in the Micovia will rise by
several levels."
"B- But if you two were to get married, your feelings..." After all, Thalia was young. It was difficult for her to accept her cousin's thinking.
Yannis, however, did not take her seriously and retorted, "What feelings? Feelings are just thoughts at the moment. Benefits are what we should focus on."
"Alright. Enough about this. I asked Rowette for two seats for the luncheon. Prepare yourself, and we'll go."
"Luncheon?" Thalia looked confused.
Yannis said, "Today is the academy's
opening ceremony. Many can come and tour the campus, but not everyone can participate in the afternoon luncheon. You can only join if you have an extraordinary status or a close relationship with Duke Martial Arts Academy." "The people who attend the luncheon
later are all from noble families. It's a good chance to get to know them."
"Thalia, you're quite beautiful. When you dress up later, try to make yourself look more energetic. Maybe you'll be favored by someone, and you'll achieve great success." Yannis taught her cousin some experience. Thalia frowned and felt a little uncomfortable. "Yannis, I-1 don't want to participate in the luncheon later."
Yannis glared at her and said, "You

don't want to? Don't you know how rare it is to have the chance to attend the luncheon? Some rich people spent one million dollars to get a seat at the luncheon, but they were not given the opportunity. Now, you're giving up on the opportunity that I've obtained with great difficulty."
"Yannis, I..." Thalia was at a loss for words.
Yannis advised, "Don't be afraid. Just watch and learn. If you're nervous, just speak less. It will be fine."
Thalia could not resist her cousin's persuasion, so she nodded and agreed.
Yannis suddenly became excited. She pulled Thalia and said, "Your clothes are too conservative. Let's go and change into a more suitable dress."
