Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 500
Chapter 498 Departure
“Qiao Sang has really made it big. He has three high-level pets in his first year of high school. Unlike your cousin, whose only pet evolved to an intermediate level in his third year of high school.”
“Who said it wasn’t? I held you in my arms when I was a child, and I didn’t expect you to be so big in the blink of an eye.”
“When I was watching TV, I was wondering why this child looked so much like Qiao Sang. I didn’t expect it was the same person. If your mother hadn’t planned to have a wedding, I wouldn’t have known.”
“You are the champion of the National Campus Beast Taming League, and you are in the third year of high school. Does this mean that you are the best in the country’s high schools?”
“I heard that you are going to Chaoxu Star as an interstellar exchange student. What’s the name of that school? Is there a Holy Water Middle School?”
“I knew since I was a child that you would definitely make it big when you grow up. Look,
you have made it big.” The people around him talked one after another.
Qiao Sang received the red envelope and kept smiling politely.
In fact, except for her third aunt and uncle, she had to search her mind for a long time to find out who the other relatives were.
Relatives are very magical. They may not see each other once a year, but they always look familiar when they meet.
As long as one of the relatives has a great figure, even if they are the most distant relatives, they can always go out and tell others “my family’s so-and-so is so-and-so” to get some credit.
Several waiters delivered wine and food to the table in an endless stream.
While delivering, they couldn’t help but take a look at the central figure of the banquet. They wanted to see what the person who the reporters in the lobby wanted to interview was like.
Unfortunately, the central figure was surrounded by a group of people and couldn’t see anything.
As time passed, the guests finally took their seats.
Ye Xiangting held the wine glass and clinked glasses with the relatives one by one, and exchanged greetings.
It was not difficult to see that she was really happy from the corners of her mouth that never lowered.
Qiao Sang held Yabao and ate the food.
A cousin next to him asked, “Aren’t you going to take the Liaoxing Dog back to the Beast Taming Code?”
“Ya!”
Yabao turned his head, looked at the human who was talking, and bared his teeth.
The cousin suddenly stiffened, stood up and said, “I’m going to the toilet first.”
After that, she took her phone and turned away.
Qiao Sang: “…”
“Don’t scare others.” Qiao Sang rubbed Yabao’s head and said.
“Ya…”
Yabao curled his lips.
It just showed his teeth…
“Qiao Sang.” At this time, an old voice sounded behind him.
Qiao Sang turned his head and was stunned for a moment, then stood up and called, “Grandma.”
The relatives who were chatting at the same table suddenly quieted down.
As the most promising child in the Ye family now, even distant relatives know about Qiao Sang’s family.
Now that the people who are drinking are all Ye family members, the appearance of people from the Qiao family here makes the atmosphere inexplicably awkward.
The gray-haired old lady stared at her granddaughter with burning eyes, and her expression was a little nervous.
“Can we go to the side to chat?” The old lady asked.
Qiao Sang glanced in the direction of her mother.
She knew that if her mother hadn’t notified her, it would be impossible for her grandmother to know and come here.
“Okay.” Qiao Sang nodded.
The two came to the French window.
People around followed them, but no one went up to disturb them.
“This is the Star Dog.” The old lady smiled and touched Yabao’s head: “It looks so good.”
“Ya.”
Yabao curved his eyes in enjoyment.
After touching it for a while, the old lady raised her head, took out a red envelope from her bag, handed it to her a little awkwardly, and said:
“I heard from your mother that you are going to Chaoxiuxing. Here you take it. There are 50,000 in it. The password is your birthday.”
Qiao Sang did not take it and said calmly: “No, the money my mother gave me is enough to spend.”
To be honest, as a rational adult, she really has no opinion on her grandmother.
But perhaps because she is biased towards her mother, or because her grandmother did not appear much during her growth, she really can’t get close to her grandmother.
Her parents were divorced in her previous life. She might have had extravagant hopes when she was a child, but as she grew up, she has become accustomed to the days without her father and grandmother.
Without people from her father’s side, her life is still very good.
The old lady’s body stiffened, her expression a little lonely, and she was silent for about two or three seconds. She asked:
“Did you block your father?”
Qiao Sang said: “Maybe, people who didn’t contact me before have been contacting me recently, and I blocked those whose numbers are not familiar to me.”
The old lady’s body stiffened again.
As an old person who has experienced the vicissitudes of life, she can naturally hear this hidden meaning.
The old lady was silent for two or three seconds again, and then she thought of something, took out her mobile phone and dialed a number.
The next moment, the mobile phone in Qiao Sang’s pocket vibrated.
She took out her mobile phone and took a look.
The caller ID showed: Grandma.
The vibration of the mobile phone stopped suddenly.
Qiao Sang raised his head.
The old lady laughed heartily: “Fortunately you didn’t block me.”
Qiao Sang paused as he looked at her smile.
After the old lady left, Yabao seemed to sense something and licked his beastmaster’s hand with his tongue.
“Ya!”
Qiao Sang lowered her head and smiled, “I’m fine.”
She thought rationally that compared to family affection, her grandmother was more of a debt. If she hadn’t won the National Campus Beast Taming League this time, she might not remember her for a while, and it would be impossible for her to contact her during this time that was not the New Year.
Qiao Sang looked up at her mother who was holding a glass and smiling not far away, and walked over.
…
Weekend morning.
Shengshui Middle School, no classes.
Logically, everyone should be in the dormitory, but the students are almost all standing in the corridor, looking at the figures below and whispering.
The people who sent Qiao Sang to Star Harbor have arrived.
“Remember to call me when you get there.” Ye Xiangting looked at her daughter and said softly.
Qiao Sang nodded: “I will.”
“Remember to eat on time and go to bed early at night. You are only in the first year of high school. Although you have missed a lot of courses because of the competition, don’t think about making up for it all at once. You have to study step by step, understand?” Ye Xiangting instructed.
“I know.” Qiao Sang responded softly.
She didn’t tell her mother that she was going to take the college entrance examination directly. It would be better to talk about this matter after she passed the exam. After all, the chance of failing the exam is also very high. If she told her mother, it would make her mother worry about it. And with her mother’s habit of making phone calls, she is afraid that she will spread
the news, and it would be embarrassing if she failed the exam. “Listen to the teacher. If the school over there doesn’t allow you to bring a mobile phone, don’t bring it. Just come to call on the weekend.” Ye Xiangting continued: “Remember to take good care of Yabao and the others’ food.”
Qiao Sang said “um”: “Don’t worry, I know.”
Ye Xiangting looked at her daughter, her expression was softer than ever before.
Excitement and pride faded, followed by worry and reluctance.
My daughter is still so young, and she has just started high school, but she has to leave me for such a long time… Ye Xiangting felt an unspeakable sadness in her heart.
Just as she was about to give her some more instructions, Qiao Sang said, “Well, Mom, why don’t we talk while walking? In fact, you can take me to the star port together.”
Ye Xiangting: “…”
…
Yuhua Star Port.
The place where the starship is docked.
As a passenger starship that can travel in space, the ship is extremely large. The shape of the spacecraft plus the silver-white luster gives people a strong sense of future science fiction.
It is out of tune with some buildings in the Yuhua area.
In the reluctant eyes of his mother, Qiao Sang waved his hand and stepped into the starship.
“There are two more people going with you as exchange students this time, one boy and one girl. They have arrived. You should know one of them.” The man who spoke was 1.9 meters tall, had a short haircut, and was very strong.
It was Officer Chen who was arranged by the country to escort the three exchange students.
I know him? Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said, “Is it Tang Yi?”
Officer Chen said admiringly, “You guessed it quite well.”
Nonsense, I know him, and he was selected as an interstellar exchange student. Of course, he is an opponent in the national competition. Besides me, the other one is naturally the runner-up… Qiao Sang said modestly:
“No, I just guessed.”
Officer Chen said while leading the way:
“Originally, we should have set out from the star port in the hollow area, but considering that you are the youngest, let them all gather here. They arrived last night. You can have a good chat with them later.”
“Okay.” Qiao Sang replied.
Along the way, Yabao in his arms looked to the side curiously.
Little Xunbao appeared and looked to the side with the same curiosity.
The cabin of the starship adopts a fully transparent design, which can clearly appreciate the scenery outside.
Many small pets are walking in the starship.
It takes at least a month to travel to the stars. It is impossible for a pet to stay in the Beast Tamer Book for such a long time. Therefore, the design of the starship allows pets to appear and move, but the size of the pet cannot exceed 3 meters in height and 4 meters in length.
As we all know, the larger the size of most pets, the higher the level.
Among those who can travel to the stars, there are many beastmasters who have high-level pets. At this moment, their pets are basically wearing light shrinking bracelets like Yabao.
It’s not that everyone has bought it, but before entering the starship, the staff of the star port will give out light shrinking bracelets with codes according to the information of the pets, and take them back when they arrive at the destination.
“The starship is divided into cockpits, sleeping cabins and cabins. The leisure areas are also separated. The state has reserved cabins for you to ensure that you have enough space to rest.” Officer Chen introduced as he walked:
“On the starship, pet fighting is prohibited, and offensive skills cannot be trained.”
As he was speaking, a voice sounded: “Officer Chen!”
Officer Chen stopped.
Qiao Sang looked in the direction of the sound and saw Tang Yi and a beautiful girl with waist-length hair, wearing a leather beret, and dressed fashionably.
In her arms, she was holding a cat-like pet wearing clothes and a hat, with green fur.
In Tang Yi’s arms, he was holding a smaller version of Parelulu.
Almost at the moment of looking at each other, Yabao and Parelulu’s eyes were full of fighting spirit.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao stood in front of Yabao at this time, showing a heroic expression.
Don’t worry, let it be beaten first!
Qiao Sang: “.”
Yabao: “???”
