Chapter 746: Seeking Compensation

The atmosphere in the dining room of Chu Nan’s house was strange.

As the family head, Chu Zhongping sat at the head of the table. One moment, he looked at Dunleavy, who was sitting in the guest seat on his left. Another moment, he looked at Elvy, who was sitting opposite him and hugging Chu Nan’s arm tightly, and then at Chu Xiaoxi, who was sitting on the right and laughing secretly. Another moment, he looked at Yu Fang, who was busy in the kitchen, and discovered that he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles like now.

Dunleavy smiled at everyone with no abnormal expression. However, when he saw that Elvy had buried Chu Nan’s arm deep in her plump chest because she was hugging him tightly, he could not help but frown.

On the other hand, Chu Xiaoxi smiled and only stared at Chu Nan and Elvy. The smile on her face became even more ambiguous as she sized up Elvy with curiosity and scrutiny.

Under so many strange gazes, it was as if countless needles had pierced into Chu Nan’s butt and he wished he could immediately escape.

However, his arm was tightly hugged by Elvy. Not only was he unable to move, he also fully experienced the soft touch and warmth brought about by her voluptuous chest. It could only make him feel even more awkward. When he looked at Dunleavy, he could only apologize with his eyes.

The only calm person here was Elvy, who was also being watched by everyone.

At this moment, she was hugging Chu Nan tightly with an extremely happy and satisfied smile on her face, as if she had the entire world with him.

Although she clearly sensed the strange gazes of the surrounding people, her response was to hug Chu Nan’s arm even tighter. The smile on her face was filled with pride and she even glared at Dunleavy who had a trace of warning in his eyes. She completely ignored his warning.

Seeing Elvy’s reaction, Dunleavy could only smile bitterly in his mind.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Chu Nan, “Chu Nan, this spaceship will be stored in a small secret military base set up in the military district on the Romon Continent about 200 kilometers northwest of here. Although this spaceship is your private property, because the authority behind it is too sensitive, Father suggests not to use it easily.”

“Yes, I know that.” Chu Nan nodded, “However, I’ll still use it when necessary. I’m the system-certified captain of that ship now. Unless you obtain my authorization, I’m afraid you won’t be able to use it.”

“Of course.” Dunleavy nodded. “As long as this matter ends and the officials announce that you…”

At this point, Dunleavy glanced at Chu Zhongping and Chu Xiaoxi and looked at Chu Nan inquiringly.

Chu Nan nodded slightly. “Tell me, I’ve told them about this.”

“Alright.” Dunleavy nodded and continued, “After we officially choose a suitable time to announce that you’re still alive, we should need you to cooperate with us in some things.”

“Such as?”

“There’s no discussion of the details for the time being. We still have to see the development of the situation before deciding.”

“Yes, let’s talk about it in the future. However, I hope this time is not too long, because I can’t wait that long.”

The corners of Chu Nan’s mouth curled up into a cold smile.

With his current strength, he was probably still not Grek’s match.

However, in a few months, he was confident that his strength would greatly increase.

At that time, it would be Grek’s death!

The two of them casually discussed for a while before ending this conversation.

In the end, all the arrangements were only temporary. What to do next would depend on the development of the situation, as Dunleavy had said.

From the known news, the Earth Federation had officially sent an army to cooperate with the fleet of the Seres Security Company to enter the Leppler Star System.

From the officially stated goal, this was to clean up the evil cosmic pirates of the Leppler Star System. However, who knew what the true goal was?

Chu Nan was not interested in this aspect. He was only concerned about the effect of this operation on Planet Leppler. The most important thing was whether it would scare Grek and Sand Eagle away.

If Grek ran away, Chu Nan really did not know where to find him.

Fortunately, the information returned through Dong Fang showed that because the Earth Federation had many reservations, it was not convenient for them to directly attack Grek. On the other hand, Grek was clearly fearless and still stayed in the Leppler Star System with Sand Eagle.

“Right, Chu Nan, do you still plan to return to Star Cloud Academy in the future?” Dunleavy suddenly asked.

“Hmm? Go back? Why not?” Chu Nan was stunned.

Hearing this answer, Elvy, who was holding his arm, immediately became happy.

“That’s great! Brother Chu Nan, I thought that after this matter, you would definitely hate Star Cloud Academy and be unwilling to return in the future. Now that you’re willing to return, I don’t have to withdraw from Star Cloud Academy.”

“Huh?” Chu Nan turned to look at Elvy in surprise, “Why should I hate Star Cloud Academy? Also, what does this have to do with you dropping out?”

“Because those guys from Star Cloud Academy abandoned you at the critical moment. In the end, they almost let you die just like that. Don’t you hate them? After I learned of the entire matter, I couldn’t wait to run to your Martial Arts Branch and curse them,” Elvy said.

“That’s right. Star Cloud Academy was scolded badly some time ago.” On the other hand, Chu Xiaoxi interrupted, “Someone exposed what happened on the space station of Planet Leppler at that time. They said that the teachers of Star Cloud Academy clearly saw that you were in danger, but they ignored you and ran away. If they had chosen to save you at that time, none of those things would have happened. You wouldn’t have died.”

At this point, Chu Xiaoxi gritted her teeth.

“Hmph, these guys are so detestable. They left you in the lurch. Don’t go back to school, right?”

However, she had forgotten that she had planned to register for the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch a few days ago.

Seeing the angry Elvy and Chu Xiaoxi, Chu Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“It’s not as exaggerated as you make it sound. At that time, to be honest, I insisted on leaving the team and returning to the surface of Planet Leppler to help Dong Fang. I asked for it. As for what happened later… that was my own choice. I can’t blame anyone else.”

“Brother Chu Nan, you’re too kind. This won’t do.” Elvy shook her head, “Even if you don’t hate them, Star Cloud Academy is clearly in the wrong. If you return, you must ask them to compensate you.”

“Ah?” Hearing this, Chu Zhongping, Chu Nan, and Chu Xiaoxi looked at Elvy in surprise.

Although Chu Zhongping and Chu Xiaoxi were also dissatisfied with Star Cloud Academy’s actions because of the previous public opinion, they had really never thought of asking Star Cloud Academy to compensate…

After all, in their hearts, Star Cloud Academy was the high and mighty number-one academy in the federation. How could a commoner like them have the qualifications to ask for compensation from Star Cloud Academy?

“Yes.” Dunleavy nodded in agreement with Elvy, “Chu Nan, Star Cloud Academy has suffered a lot of pressure in this incident and it has a huge impact on their reputation. If you can return alive in the end and cooperate with them to make up publicly, it will be very helpful to them, so it’s natural for you to ask for some compensation.”

“Oh?” Chu Nan touched his chin and thought for a moment. He immediately felt that what Elvy and Dunleavy said made sense.

“Request compensation?” Chu Nan’s eyes lit up, “I wonder if they’ll agree to directly ask them to give me the Arhat Overlord Golden Body?”
