Chapter 1697: 23.16 Second Grey Star - Registration
Chapter 1697: 23.16 Second Grey Star - Registration
In just one night, Yun Luan had gained a lot. He had played with the twins, who didn't seem to fear him because of his expressionless face. It can be said that when Ye Jingmo isn't showing emotions on his face, his cute, cold face is similar to Yun Luan's. In reality, the reason the twins aren't afraid of Yun Luan is because they knew he was their grandfather, and being emotionless is a trait all those with the blood of Mo possess. Though they are expressionless towards strangers, in front of their family and friends, they are different.
With Hei Anjing's promise, Yun Luan no longer needs to wake up early the next morning to look for a coach. Instead, he accompanied Hei Anjing and had the two of them registered as a coach and his student. The ones in the venue were dumbfounded when the famous White King appeared on the building. Moreover, due to the request of Hei Anjing to hide the fact that he is back in the country, it was not only to protect Yun Luan but also to avoid the media from chasing after him.
However, coincidence still happens. Yun Luan and Hei Anjing, who were covered from head to toe, just finished the registration and were on their way home when Yun Hun came with Lei Jun and Coach Runa to register for the pair division of the ice skating competition.
Yun Hun said, "Is that brother?"
"Impossible! Yun Luan doesn't even have a coach. How can he register?" Lei Jun said. "Maybe because you skipped breakfast when you were looking at things. Let's finish the registration and go eat somewhere."
"But it's really him. Brother found a coach on his own. Coach Runa, can we ask if he truly registered?" Yun Hun said.
Coach Runa said, "Alright. Leave it to me. Let's go ahead and register first."
Yun Huan looked back, trying to find the figure he had seen before. Unfortunately, as if it were an illusion, the figures he saw were no longer around. But he believes that those people are truly seen by him now. If that's real, then he must know and make another plan to make sure that his twin brother will not appear in the competition.
During the registration, Coach Runa asked the officials of the competition if Yun Luan had registered.
Coach Runa asked, "Hello. Is it possible to ask if an athlete named Yun Luan had registered for a solo competition?"
"Yun Luan? Let me check. Indeed, he had been listed as a seeded one. After all, the child used to be last year's regional champion. He just registered today," the official said.
Upon hearing this, Coach Runa felt that her face had been slapped so badly. After all, she had made sure that no one in this region would accept that ungrateful brat under their wing. Seeing that Yun Luan had successfully been registered, she felt betrayed.
"Tell me who his registered coach is!" Coach Runa demanded and temporarily forgot her position, shouting like this at the official. She had forgotten that despite being a veteran ice skater, it doesn't give her the authority to question officials in such a forceful way.
As expected, the official at the register turns cold at her words and stares unfriendly towards Coach Runa. They had never seen such a rude athlete like the one in front of them.
"Ms. Runa, I do not think you have the right to ask such a question. Our committee will have to rebuke your registration for the international ice skating competition with such rudeness. Since you have finished what you came for, please take your leave."
Lei Jun and Yun Hun, feeling the unwanted gaze falling on their group, felt embarrassed at this moment. Though they love being at the center of attention, not to this kind of eye. Judgmental eyes looking at them as if they were a mental case.
"Coach Runa, please calm down," said Yun Hun.
Lei Jun whispered, "All eyes are on us. We need to leave first, right now."
Seeing that she couldn't get what she wanted, they could only walk away in anger. Just what is wrong with her asking who her former student's new coach is? It's the official making things bad for her. However, she can get her registration for the international competition canceled. After all, to skate and dance on international grounds had always been her dream.
On their way out, they heard the murmuring of the crowd, as they were most likely the ones being talked about.
"That's her, right, Coach Runa?"
"Yeah. I heard she pressured her colleague not to accept that child genius, Yun Luan, under their wings. She was saying that the child's personality is bad."
"Is that really so? I just think she is trying to destroy that child's future."
"She let go of a genius of a pair of unknown players. Is her brain okay?"
"There must be something wrong with her."
"Anyway, you saw Yun Luan's new coach."
"Fuck! If it were him, I would agree to be his student."
"That's right. With how talented that child is, it's normal for him to take him under his wing."
"The child is talented and lucky."
The three left the building with Coach Runa's face uglier than usual. She never expected that her words within their industry would spread this badly. This only meant that her friends thought that she was overbearing and bullying the child named Yun Luan, or else why would they stop them from accepting him? However, Coach Runa's background is not ordinary. She comes from a family of figure skaters and is quite well known for it. That's why, even if they didn't want to ignore the talented child, they could only follow her request.
Thankfully, that child was lucky and found a new coach to guide him. Moreover, this guide is more powerful than the family behind Coach Runa. Now they are waiting for Coach Runa to overstep her boundaries and realize in the end what kind of person she will offend in the future.

Meanwhile, Hei Anjing sent Yun Luan back to their family's ice rink, where An Zhe was waiting for them.
Hei Anjing said to the two students under their family. "I will have to pick up my husband and other children. I had asked the butler to place a separator at the ice rink where you two can practice. Come to the mansion and join us for dinner. After dinner, A'Ye and I will check the progress of your training. A'Zhe, complete your sequence unless you want to get beaten by your coach."
"Yes, Coach," said Yun Luan.
An Zhe, on the other hand, was panicking in his heart as he was only halfway through his sequence. If his coach learned that he skipped training, he would definitely suffer when they met on the ice rink.
"I will do my best to complete it before evening," An Zhe responded.
Hei Anjing said, "Butler, I will leave these two to you. Luan'er is responsible, so there is no worry about him slacking. Watch over A'Zhe. He might try to escape."
"Leave it to this old man, Master Hei," said the old butler.
The two youngsters and the old butler watch as the car driven by Hei Anjing drives away. The moment the car completely disappeared, A Zhe tried to sneak away. However, it's too late for him. The old butler of the Ye family, as well as Yun Luan, grabs his two shoulders, preventing him from leaving.
"Where are you going?" The two who caught the naughty one asked together.
An Zhe, knowing that he can't escape, gave up and entered the building together with the two. The old butler was checking the surveillance room while Yun Luan and An Zhe, after changing their clothes, found the enclosure in the ice rink. Half of the ice rink was barricaded by heavy plastic walls. Preventing others from directly seeing what is inside. But they can see the movement because of the gaps between the plastic walls.
Actually, before the guests entered the building, it was explained that the owner had split the huge rink in half. One is for free use as before, and the other is for their students to practice on their own. Since the facility is free, no one truly complains. After all, just the fact that a free space and shoes were provided for them to use without paying is a kind gesture from the owner of this place. Outside the partitioned area of the ice rink, Yun Luan and An Zhe are warming up by stretching outside the ice rink.
Yun Luan said, "Don't look so down. I will try to help you complete your sequence. It's not like the teacher said you have to perfect it."
"Really, you will help me!?" An Zhe looked delighted when he heard Yun Luan say these words. He was out of ideas for a moment. Usually for times like this he can consult with his coach. However, he was told that his coach is busy with attending competitions and cleaning up things for his wife. That's why he does not have a way to complete his sequence on his own.
Yun Luan said, "I will only give some advice, but not entirely."
"Thank you!" An Zhe said.
An Zhe was so delighted that he hugged Yun Luan out of nowhere. He was the type to show this much emotion, especially through his actions. The two were both shocked when they realized what had been done and immediately separated as if feeling shy about what had happened just now. However, they didn't even recognize them and took a photo. This photo had spread so much that it even reached Yun Hun.

At the Yun family's house.
Yun Hun, Lei Jun, and Coach Runa had just returned after completing the registration for the pair division of the ice skating competition in their region. They had suffered quite a bit of criticism on the way, making the faces of Coach Runa and Lei Jun ugly. After all, even though they were as famous as the White and the Black King, they had been in this industry long enough.
Lei Jun said, "How the hell can they treat me as a nobody?"
"This is all Yun Luan's fault. Why couldn't he just give up skating when he was no longer suitable for it?" said Coach Runa.
On the other hand, Yun Hun was sitting quietly in his seat when he received a message from one of his minions. It's a photo of Yun Luan talking to someone whose face wasn't captured by the photo, as his back was facing its direction.
Yun Hun whispers, "Found you, my scapegoat~"
