Chapter 5: New Student Registration

Ye Fan left without a word, dragging his belongings without looking back

It is more challenging to push through a crowd than to enter it. This is because it signifies that you are acting against the natural order. Thus, Ye Fan became such a defiant strongman this time, and in doing so, he assisted a woman who appeared to be anything but weak.

Ye Fan said: "That must be the 'ping' of apple."

Ye Ping shouted angrily at his back: "Ye Fan, you are ungrateful, you are being inconsiderate, I treated you to ice pops for nothing."

While others rely on their parents, Ye Fan can only depend on himself. He grabbed a suitcase and squeezed in with the crowd of uncles and aunts. There is strength in numbers, and despite Ye Fan's extraordinary physique, he nearly coughed up blood. In that moment of impulse, he felt like he wanted to eliminate all these people.

However, Ye Fan truly underestimated this fellow. Suddenly, he stood up, lifted one foot, and directly stepped onto the bench, shouting loudly at the crowd: "Everyone, don't push! Those from the Chinese Department, come over here." At the same time, he cast several intense glances at the neckline of that girl, and Ye Fan was beginning to wonder if his eyes would pop out and fall in. He had already jumped down from the bench and returned to his seat, displaying a look of satisfaction.

Ye Fan shook his head and sighed, turning to leave. He caught sight of the box that Ye Ping was carrying; it was the same type, but it was at least twice the size of Ye Fan's. Moreover, she was also carrying a gigantic backpack on her back that was no smaller than herself

The names of the two individuals were soon found on the list. The young man in front collected the admission notices for both of them and handed each a form bearing their names, instructing them to go and collect the items they were entitled to.

After completing a round and collecting everything that was to be collected, the box was no longer a box, but had transformed into two trailers piled high with items. Moreover, Ye Ping and Ye Fan were no longer just classmates; Ye Ping referred to the two as brothers. Ye Fan, who had been sweating profusely along the way, received as his reward a green bean popsicle worth fifty cents.

At that moment, the girl beside me laughed and said: "My name is Ye Ping, with 'Ye' meaning leaf, but not the 'Ping' of ordinary."

It turned out that this was the registration area among the crowd. Ye Fan glanced around and noticed that there were relatively few students; most were parents accompanying their children. Additionally, many people, like himself, had come directly with their luggage, which further added to the congestion at the scene

All this time, Ye Fan had become accustomed to following Ye Ping, and before he knew it, he had been led to the girls' dormitory. Since it was the new students' registration period, the girls' dormitory, which usually prohibited the presence of male individuals, had to make an exception. Ye Ping grinned mischievously and said, "Good brother, let's be a good person to the end!"

Ye Fan smiled and said, "hetushu.com.com, I only know two 'ping' characters, one is '平' (ping) meaning ordinary, and the other is '苹' (ping) as in apple." As he spoke, he turned to closely observe the girl. At that moment, her face was still flushed, with short, tousled hair. A piece of amber-colored earring was dangling from her left ear, and she was looking at Ye Fan, grinning with her two small tiger teeth, saying, "You only know two 'ping' characters, and you dare to come to the Chinese department."

Ye Fan looked at her with sympathy, and was just about to leave when he heard Ye Ping call out: "Ye Fan, help me carry the suitcase"

As Ye Fan approached the table, he felt the air become significantly fresher, and he took a deep breath. At that moment, a girl next to him also overcame numerous obstacles to reach the table, her face flushed, as she fumbled with her collar and murmured, "It's so hot, it's so hot." Ye Fan immediately sensed countless sharp gazes directed towards the depths of her collar. Looking at the boys behind the table, they were too preoccupied to pay attention to Ye Fan. They were anxiously scratching their heads, but unfortunately, no matter how much they stretched their necks, it was of no use.

Ye Fan concentrated his mind and perked up his ears, and amidst various anticipations, he finally heard a voice saying, "This way for the Chinese Department." Just that one voice was enough to determine the direction, and he immediately squeezed through, sweating profusely.

Ye Fan said: "Ye, as in the leaf of a tree, and Fan, meaning ordinary." Ye Fan noted that he was deeply impressed by the line from Gu Long's novel where Ye Kai says, "Ye, as in the leaf of a tree, and Kai, meaning happy," and thus he applied it to his own name.

After striving for a moment, Ye Fan heard amidst the noisy voices: "This side for the English Department, this side for the Computer Science Department, this side for Environmental Engineering," and this was thanks to his exceptional hearing

The items to be collected include: quilts, towels, basins, thermoses, meal cards, dormitory keys, and so on, all of which are complete; however, it is frustrating that the designated collection locations vary.

A large banner hangs on the main gate, displaying five prominent characters: Welcome New Students

Ye Ping looked up at the number posted on the key and said: "6th floor"

Ye Fan smiled lightly. The conclusion of Ye Fan regarding the strikingly beautiful girl, Zhang Yang.

The girl exclaimed in surprise, "How did you know?"

Ye Fan paused for a moment and turned to glance at Ye Ping. It was not because he felt soft-hearted upon hearing about the popsicle, but rather because he sensed an unusual aura at the moment Ye Ping erupted in anger. This Ye Ping was indeed not an ordinary person. He had been completely oblivious throughout their journey, having concealed herself quite deeply.

Ye Fan followed the crowd step by step, and finally caught a glimpse of the table's edges through the gaps in the crowd, feeling a surge of excitement in his heart

Ye Fan felt a surge of emotion; to say that his journey at m.hetushu.com had been fraught with twists and turns would be an understatement, having encountered theft, robbery, and deceit along the way. Now, he had finally arrived at the school gate—how could he not feel a myriad of emotions? With a cheerful demeanor, he entered the premises and saw a wide concrete avenue flanked by trees he did not even recognize. In front of him, a tree trunk was affixed with a wooden arrow, which bore five words: New Student Registration Office

Then, looking at Ye Fan in front of him, he asked: "What is your name"

In order to take advantage of Ye Fan as free labor, Ye Ping chose the same route as Ye Fan. Wherever Ye Fan went, she followed. As a result, the box that was twice the size never left Ye Fan's hands; he even developed a deeper attachment to this box than to his own. Because this box was heavier, he invested more effort into it.

Ye Fan noticed that countless boys around were eager to make a move, but unfortunately, one of them had directly targeted him. With no other choice, he had to hold onto her suitcase. With a suitcase in each hand, he pushed forward, immediately clearing a wide path. Ye Ping, feeling quite justified, followed behind with her large backpack. When Ye Fan turned back to take a look midway, he immediately thought of "Star Kill" again

Ye Fan scanned the surroundings. In a place where crowds gathered, it was quite common to find people of his kind. He could already sense the presence of several individuals in different directions. This was nothing unusual; to him, it felt like a game of hide and seek. Sometimes, Ye Fan found it strange that practitioners of such skills were not nearly as rare as giant pandas in this world.

Ye Ping looked at Ye Fan as he stopped, chuckling and saying: "You..."

Ye Fan asked: "Which floor?"

Ye Fan pushed forward, only to hear a scream from deep within the crowd ahead: "Ah! Don't push! The table is about to topple!" It was then that he halted his advance. At this moment, the position was such that there was both entry and exit; unless someone came out, it was impossible to squeeze in even a little.

Ye Fan thought to himself that this feeling was wonderful. Following the guidance of the arrows, he walked along until a seven-story building appeared before him. Originally, there was a fairly large square in front of the building, but at this moment, it was crowded with people. As Ye Fan looked around, a voice suddenly came from a loudspeaker: "Attention, new students, attention, new students, please report to the tables of your respective departments, please report to the tables of your respective departments. Do not push, come one by one." Ye Fan was still looking around when the voice repeated: "Attention, new students, attention, new students, please report to the tables of your respective departments, please report to the tables of your respective departments. Do not push, come one by one."

Ye Fan was taken aback and turned around. Ye Ping exclaimed, "Oh, we are all classmates now, so there is no need to be so polite!"

With just a single word, Ye Fan had already swiftly vanished from her sight

Emerging from the alley, Ye Fan strode purposefully towards the direction of the Normal University. The distance to this stop was not far, and soon Ye Fan had arrived at the school's main gate
