Chapter 1379
The moment Connie's words were heard, Luna's reaction was the most intense. "Grandma, what do you mean by that? Why are you talking about him being worthy or otherwise? We're just friends!" Although we... we kissed the other time, neither of us ever brought that day up again. Therefore, they were still at the beautiful stage where things were fuzzy. Hence, Connie's proclamation burst the bubble, making the situation exceedingly awkward.

Klaus, who was eating, stilled for a moment, but he said nothing.

Upon seeing this, Connie was in seventh heaven. Finally, I've found his Achilles heel! Putting on her authoritative air as an elder, she loftily asserted, "My granddaughter will never marry a man who doesn't even have a high school diploma."

All at once, the atmosphere turned awkward, and Luna's face flushed bright red from mortification. At this time, Hilda hurriedly smoothed things over, exclaiming, "What are you saying, mom? What's this about marrying and all?" She should at last leave them some dignity! They're now at the beautiful stage where things are hazy, so isn't she just ruining everything by uttering such a remark?

Unexpectedly, Klaus put down his cutlery and said to Connie solemnly, "I almost forgot to tell you that I've already enrolled for Self Taught Higher Education Examinations at Taadi University, so I am studying while working. I've already passed two subjects so far, and will soon be receiving my bachelor's degree from Taadi University." Then, he continued, "When I've gotten my bachelor's degree, I'll continue studying for a master's degree."

Connie opened her mouth, but upon realizing that she had nothing to say, she muttered, "Being self taught isn't something that's so easy.."

From then on, Klaus had a new reason to interact with Luna, having her teach him.

Subsequently, Giry noticed that Klaus was often showing up in the university, so he made discreet inquiries. Only then did he know that Klaus had actually enrolled for Self Taught Higher Education Examinations (STHEE) in Taadi University! For that reason, he often came to the university to attend lectures.

He even applied for a bachelor's degree in law, which was precisely Luna's course, so he seized the opportunity to sit in on her classes.

Connie had truly shot herself in the foot this time. After all, this was a trick Nathan had used previously!

Furthermore, Klaus got a bicycle from somewhere, so he even often used it to commute to and fro while giving Luna rides. Thus, they went all around Taadi University like a couple.

Giry was so infuriated that he saw red. Klaus is simply a prodigy, an expert in seizing any and all opportunities to advance his intentions!

Someone else who was likewise disgruntled was Justin. He searched for Luna all over the campus the entire day as though having nothing better to do. On the other hand, Anne said that Luna didn't get into Taadi University at all, but he didn't believe that. And sure enough, he often spotted her on campus.

She even seemed to have gotten herself a new boyfriend, a green eyed international student who was taking STHEE. Since there were few green eyed international students in the university, Klaus naturally became the most conspicuous as he was also the most handsome among them all.

Finally, Justin managed to ambush Klaus and Luna who came out on a bicycle after having kept watch at the university gates multiple times.

Seething, he stopped them on the spot.

"Get down from there, Luna Clemon!"

Braking, Klaus stared at him coldly.

Justin, on the other hand, rushed over in a few strides to grab Luna. "This is your boyfriend? A self taught examinee with no future to speak of?" He lambasted.

Luna nudged her glasses. "What a lunatic! Let's go, Klaus."

Right now, Klaus wasn't in the mood to contend with Justin either, since he had to rush back to Luna's house for dinner. Thus, he pedaled the bicycle to leave, but unexpectedly, Justin held his bicycle still. "You're not allowed to leave!" He barked. I'm just about to lose my mind! How could she find such a worthless boyfriend? As her ex boyfriend, I really can't take it!

"You must dump him today! There's no future in getting together with this man!" He threatened.

At this, Luna got off the bicycle to reason with him amicably. To their surprise, a pale and slender yet harsh hand suddenly shot out from behind the arrogant Justin and grabbed him by the collar effortlessly. In the next instance, a wintry female voice cut through the air like a sharp blade, piercing right into Justin's ear. "Kid, if you continue harassing my sister, I'll make your life a living hell."

"Who's this?" Justin glanced over his shoulder indignantly, only to see a lady who was about his height standing behind him, looking all formidable in military uniform.

It was the military training day for freshmen on the next day, so people from the military were already here.

Military green buses were also parked in the campus since all freshmen would be going to military camp the next morning for military training. Therefore, it was no surprise to see people in military uniform within campus.

The moment Justin saw the lady, all the arrogance in his expression drained away because he glimpsed a pair of green eyes. The Cannon Family had always been the director of Taadi University's military training.

In the past, William had been the one in charge, but he retired the year before. Thus, he was replaced by someone else who also had the last name Cannon, and it was a woman at that.

Rumor had it that the woman was extremely capable, having achieved extraordinary prestige in the military at a young age.

She was the eldest daughter of William, who was the patriarch of the Cannon Family, and she was no less competent than her father. It was her first time handling the military training last year, and the sophomores were still wearing terrified expressions when they spoke of her, for she was even more brutal than her father!

That woman had a pair of unique green eyes, a rare mixed blood military officer in the Taadi military. Military officers dubbed her 'Steely Green Eyed Military Beauty', and her name was Yaa Cannon.

At this moment, Justin noticed the pair of green eyes. As his eyes moved toward her military uniform, his heart jolted, and he froze from abject fright.

It's Yaa Cannon!

Yaa, on the other hand, had committed his countenance to memory.

Then, she ordered the deputy officer beside her, "Deputy Washington, remember this face and take 'good care' of him in the following month."

Deputy Washington glanced at Justin.

He's very easy to remember. His face seems to be carved from the same mold as Nathan Clemon. Nodding, he solemnly replied, "Understood, General." This kid is done for.

Justin was so terrified that he almost went to his knees, and even his tongue was in knots. "General, I…"
