Chapter 1551: Can I introduce a master to you?
It doesn't seem to be this way. Shouldn't we... bargain?
Shen Xi looked at Cheng Xuri with a smile: "Brother, if you can master metaphysics in three months, you win."
Cheng Xuri opened his mouth and felt that he should say something, but for some reason, he couldn't say what he wanted to say.
Shen Xi pretended not to notice and continued, "Don't accuse me of bullying you. Now, I'll find you a powerful master to teach you."
She moved closer and asked him, "Brother, do you dare to talk to a child?"
Cheng Xuri was furious!
Who are you looking down on? Although he is socially anxious, he is not so scared that he doesn't even dare to talk to children, right?
In fact, he likes children because they are innocent and lively. At first, he even considered becoming a kindergarten teacher, but in the end, he gave up because he had to deal with parents.
After much deliberation, he decided that sponsoring poor primary school students was more to his liking.
Shen Xi was glared at by him, but she was not annoyed, and still smiled brightly: "Okay, as long as you can communicate with the child, I will introduce you to a master. She is in Hecheng. Whether you can get her approval and let her accept you as a disciple depends on your ability."
In another place... Cheng Xuri looked embarrassed.
"Since you are my senior brother, when I return to Hecheng, I will take you with me and accompany you all the way to become my disciple. How about that? You have nothing to say about my being my junior sister."
Cheng Xuri was completely relieved, lowered his head obediently, and nodded gently. He was unwilling to speak and was even shyer than a grown girl.
Shen Xi felt that she had exceeded the task assigned to her by her instructor.
Take Cheng Xuri to Hecheng and hand him over to Sister Caibao.
Our happy and cheerful Sister Caibao is a cure for all kinds of unhappiness.
There was an aunt in their dance team before. Her husband cheated on her at an old age, abandoned his family and his wife, and completely ignored the opposition of his children. He was going to divorce his wife, with whom he had shared hardships for decades.
It's bad enough that he wants to abandon his wife, he also wants her to leave the house with nothing.
Because her husband is rich, her children all sided with their father and advised her to divorce him. What's the point of forcing a man who has changed his mind to stay with her?
Don't make things difficult for your children.
A marriage without love is immoral, and she should learn to make the best of others.
The old lady is so angry. Her husband's cheating has made her miserable, and her children don't support her.
The old saying is true. No matter how good you treat your children, when they grow up, they will only recognize the rich person. No matter whether it is the father or the mother, whoever has money will be respected by them.
She has been a housewife all her life. Now she is in her sixties and is getting divorced. She is also being kicked out of the house penniless. Who can bear this?
She couldn't get over it, so she made up her mind and committed suicide by drinking pesticide.
Fortunately, the pesticide was fake, otherwise, it would probably be beyond saving.
But even if the pesticide was fake, the aunt was betrayed by her husband and children, and she was depressed, and over time she really got depression.
She came out to dance because she wanted to have more contact with the outside world and try to keep her illness under control.
Then, she met Little Treasure.
The little one was as happy as a sunflower every day, chirping and telling her this and that, dancing with her and telling her jokes. Day by day, with Caibao by her side and so many old sisters counseling her, the aunt's depression was actually cured.
From then on, their dance troupe said that Caibao was their pistachio. With her around, there was sunshine, rain, birdsong and flowers everywhere.
Just looking at her smiling face makes people feel better.
Therefore, Shen Xi felt that leaving Cheng Xuri to Caibao was the right decision.
With the ability of her little treasure, she can turn Cheng Xuri into an extrovert in a matter of minutes, believe it or not?
Besides, Cheng Xuri was too naive to think that he could master metaphysics in just three months.
Not to mention that there are so many schools of metaphysics. Even if he is a rare genius who can master everything he learns, it is impossible for him to master everything in three months, right?
Therefore, Shen Xi will definitely win this bet.
Haha, she is an expert at setting traps. This senior brother is so innocent... like a child, it's hard to bear...
Well, she couldn't bear it for even a second. It was more fun to cheat people, so she still insisted on cheating them.
Well, Xiao Caibao has found a talented apprentice. He will have an extra powerful helper when he goes out to cheat. How happy is that?
It may also be a good thing to help Cheng Xuri leave the old place that made him depressed and start a new life in a new place.
Killing two birds with one stone. Well, the way she speaks and acts now is very much in Chen Chuan's style.
Everyone here agreed to make a common bet. In an instant, Shen Xi became closer to his fellow brothers and sisters. They went from being polite and distant to talking and laughing, and getting along very well.
Suddenly, Ji Anqing coughed hard to clear his throat, and everyone looked at him.
He said, "I haven't placed my bet yet."
Everyone fell: ...
Old man, aren't you a little too playful? Is this the game you should play at your age and status?
Cheng Xuri immediately looked at his mentor with an eager and careful gaze. If there was anyone in his life who could get close to his inner heart, that person must be Ji Anqing.
He is not only his mentor, but also like a father to him.
Cheng Xuri is unwilling to deal with anyone in the world except Ji Anqing.
So, the mentor will...
"I bet Xiao Shen will win."
Cheng Xuri's eyes dimmed instantly.
His fists were clenched tightly under the table. Did he... not think highly of him?
He won't accept it, even if he dies!
He must win, and win hard, with results... Never mind, he'll prove himself with results.
For the first time in Cheng Xuri’s thirty years of life, he was so eager to win. He had to win!!
He himself did not realize that the world, which he had always found boring and tiresome, seemed to have begun to interest him.
Good start, isn't it?
*
This dinner became very lively because of the bet between Shen Xi and Cheng Xuri.
The senior brothers and sisters exchanged glances with each other and looked at this new junior sister with new eyes.
I never expected that this old man who is always taciturn and always so venomous when he speaks would actually recruit such a smooth-talking junior sister this year...
When did the teacher start liking this?
Over the years, hasn't he always recruited students who are introverted and focused on scientific research?
Everyone's eyes fell on Shen Xi involuntarily. This little sister was said to be the mentor's last disciple. He planned to retire and would not recruit any more students next year.
Could it be that Ji Anqing, who has been law-abiding all his life, plans to change his taste when he retires?
