With June fast approaching, the weather grew increasingly sultry, and the sound of cicadas began to rise from the treetops.
Yun Feiwan chose an auspicious day to take Song Yanqing to meet Dean Xiao of Beishan Academy. After a lengthy discussion, the Dean was deeply impressed by Song Yanqing and accepted him as his final closing disciple. Overjoyed, Yun Feiwan selected a date to host a ceremony to formalize the apprenticeship. With that, everyone in the Capital learned that Song Yanqing was now under the tutelage of Dean Xiao.
Previously, people had remained polite to Song Yanqing largely out of respect for the Yun family. But in recent days, as he navigated various social gatherings, Song Yanqing displayed a humble, courteous, and dignified demeanor. He was a world apart from the Song Jingcheng of the past, and people became genuinely willing to interact with him. Moreover, during this time, Song Yanqing had managed to forge friendships of his own. Now that he was officially Dean Xiao’s student, the desire to associate with him only grew. Seeing Song Yanqing so vibrant and full of life, Yun Feiwan felt genuinely happy for him.
