Chapter 149 - START OF HIS REBIRTH (I)

WHEN Luo Yan got out of the car, he couldn't help but look around.  The land area of this school was truly over the top.  It felt like they were in some kind of small city.  He could see a clock tower from a distance.  When they entered the gate he saw rows of cherry blossom trees, enough that it could rival a small park.  He bet the facilities here would be even more insane.

As if reading his thoughts, Luo Jin said, "This school has a middle school and high school department.  That's why it's so big.  Aside from that, each sports have separate gyms.  There's a number of soccer fields and baseball fields, also indoor pools and tennis courts.  There are libraries, cafeterias, and student dormitories for those who wanted to stay here.  There's a big hall where student activities could be held.  There's even a garden with an artificial lake where students could relax if they wanted.  And, of course, there's the teaching buildings and faculty buildings."

Luo Yan was speechless for a bit.  Almost all the things mentioned by Luo Jin were in plural forms.  Which meant there were more than one.  Seriously, was this really a school or some kind of lifestyle center?  

He did a bit of research about this academy.  He wasn't really that much interested about the facilities here.  So all he looked for was their educational system.  He knew about it having two departments – middle school and high school.  Most of the students here were from the most prominent and richest families from all over the country.  The cream of the crop.  That's why it's been touted as an 'aristocratic' school.  Because every student could be considered as an elite.  

Of course, they're not only popular for being a school for the rich.  Their education was also top notch.  Considered as one of the top key middle schools and high schools in the country.  They paid great attention to the students' grades.  That's why being rich was not enough to be in a key class, they also needed to have good grades on top of that.  

They had a scholarship program that allowed students who couldn't afford their astronomical tuition fee to enroll.  They had to pass the overly difficult entrance exam.  After passing, they had to maintain a high grade to keep enjoying the privilege of being the academy's scholar.  Once they failed to do that, they would be automatically asked to transfer.  Those students probably made up one percent, at the very most, of the student body's population.

"President Luo, welcome, welcome," suddenly said by a voice in the front.

Luo Yan turned to the front of the faculty building where their car stopped.  He saw a short middle aged man with a beer belly.  There were two people standing beside him.

"That's the vice-chairman of the high school department," Luo Jin whispered to Luo Yan.

Vice-chairman?  Luo Yan looked again at the middle-aged man.  He looked like one of those typical corrupt politician.

The vice-chairman, Kong Yi, wiped the sweat on his forehead.  He ran here as fast as he could when he received a call from the guard at the gate that President Luo came.  He knew that today was the day that President Luo's second son would take an exam to transfer here.  He just didn't expect that the president of Tianhua Group would come here himself.  Who didn't know that the president was a cold workaholic?  Where would he have the time to accompany one of his sons to take an exam?

Kong Yi heard that this son had been in a coma for seven years and just woke up recently.  Everyone in the upper circle of society knew about the accident that happened seven years ago.  President Luo lost his wife and his second son fell into a coma.  

When the chairman received a call from President Luo about his son transferring here, the chairman initially wanted to decline.  Especially when he heard that the child wished to be in the third year of high school.  After all, how could a child who was in coma for seven years be able to cope up with the rigorous class of third years.  Wouldn't that be just pure torture for the child?  

Kong Yi managed to convince the chairman to agree.  After all, it's not a good idea to offend one of the richest man in the country.  They only had to let the kid take their exam.  Once he failed, President Luo wouldn't have any reason to complain to them.  

He then turned to the boy standing between President Luo and his youngest son.  He had to blink a couple of times to make sure that what he's seeing was real.  The boy had black hair that looked soft to the touch, a pair of big peach blossom eyes, rosy cheeks and lips, and skin that seemed as if it was made of porcelain.  This was the first time he had seen such a beautiful young boy.

"This must be the second young master," he said slowly recovering from the shock.

Luo Yan smiled sweetly at the vice-chairman.  "Hello."

Kong Yi was again shocked.  Because that smile only increased the boy's beauty.

Then his sight was suddenly hindered.  He looked up and his gaze collided with the cold eyes of President Luo.  He felt a chill down his spine and sweated even more.

"Are we just going to keep standing here?" Luo Wei Tian asked coldly.

"Sorry, sorry, please, follow us inside," Kong Yi said, already sweating bullets.

The vice-chairman gestured for them to follow.  Going inside the building, the vice-chairman kept on trying to start a conversation with Luo Wei Tian.  But Luo Wei Tian completely ignored him.  Luo Yan could really admire this man's tenacity. 

Luo Yan glanced at his father.  This was the first time he saw him being the cold, overbearing president that he usually was.  He must say, it's kind of novel feeling.  He reached for his father's hand and smiled at him.  "Dad, don't frown."

Luo Wei Tian gazed down at his second son and smiled softly.  "Sorry, Xiao Yan, did Dad scare you?"

Luo Yan shook his head.  "No, Dad always look cool."

"You…" Luo Wei Tian showed a helpless smile before pinching Luo Yan's cheek.
