The wicked female cannon fodder has arrived home

Chapter 399 Rejection of Patriarch Li

Wenren Lianmo nodded in agreement.

"You have considered it very carefully. This will indeed attract more students to sign up."

"But this will result in an extremely tight supply of teaching and service resources in the university town."

Hua Xiang patted Wenren Lianmo's shoulder.

"We have already considered this."

"As for recruiting teaching staff, we still need you and Brother Helian to work together."

"The university town is large enough for us to make full use of the existing teaching resources and service resources. At the same time, you are actively looking for and introducing more high-quality teachers and teaching resources."

“As long as we work together, we can definitely do this well.”

Wenren Lianmo curled his lips and said, "Boss Hua, are you throwing this hot potato on my head?"

Hua Xiang narrowed her peach blossom eyes and smiled deeply.

“All this requires the joint efforts and dedication of everyone.”

"I will also work hard to find teaching staff. This is not just a hot potato for you."

"Both the Ninth Prince and the Second Prince of Beiliang need to work harder together."

"It's impossible to sit back and enjoy the fruits of one's labor without doing anything."

Wenren Lianmo...

Things were arranged after a few words, but the difficult problems now fell on him.

If Nanhuang wants to recruit so many teaching talents, it will inevitably need to visit some tough old bones.

For example, Li Family Academy, Qingsheng Music House, Lanyue Brothel, Hongwu Hall...

Li Family Academy has many students.

All the students from Li Family Academy are outstanding and accomplished talents.

There are always people who pass the imperial examinations and come out on top in every generation.

By the time of Dean Li Jue's generation, his students are all over the world.

Wenren Lianmo returned to Nanhuang and visited the Li family in person, hoping to use Li Jue to recruit his disciples and gather them in the Modern Empire University City.

Outside the study of the Li family's patriarch, Li Yuege was peeking inside through the window. When she saw Wenren Lianmo's face, she couldn't help but blush.

Master Lian Mo is so handsome!

The little maid beside Li Yuege pulled Li Yuege and tugged at her, whispering.

"Miss, the master is talking about serious matters, let's go quickly!"

"Hey, don't pull me, let me take another look, I finally saw Master Lian Mo..."

"The master will find out soon."

In the study room.

Wenren Lianmo's eyes and eyebrows are gentle.

"Mr. Li, I'll have to trouble you with this matter."

"It's not a problem, but..." Li Ju glanced meaningfully at the window and suddenly smiled.

"My little girl Yue Ge is willful, so I have to trouble you, nephew."

Wenren Lianmo's face froze.

"My dear nephew, my Yue Ge is my old daughter, whom I cherish as much as a jewel. Now she is old enough to get married."

"I think my nephew is a good match for my Yue Ge..."

Wenren Lianmo knew very well that Li Jue had been planning this for a long time.

However, he has never liked this kind of marriage.

Li Yaoshu is Mr. Li's cousin.

My aunt Li Yaoshu had mentioned this matter to my mother before.

He flatly refused it.

"Mr. Li, marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated as a joke?" Wenren Lianmo politely refused.

Li Jue smiled but didn't.

"My dear nephew, I know that marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly, but my Yue Ge is a good girl. You will not regret marrying her."

Wenren Lianmo looked embarrassed.

"Master Li, it's not that I don't agree, it's just..."

"Just what?" Li Jue asked.

Wenren Lianmo took a deep breath.

"I already have someone I like, so I'm afraid I can't promise Miss Yuege."

As soon as these words came out, Li Jue's face changed.

He didn't expect Wenren Lianmo to reject him so directly.

Li Yuege heard this conversation outside the window and felt a sense of loss.

She had long harbored feelings for Wenren Lianmo, but she had never expected that he already had someone he loved.

"Miss, let's go." The little maid advised softly.

Li Yuege shook her head stubbornly, "No, I want to hear it all."

The atmosphere in the study was a little awkward for a while.

Li Jue said in a deep voice.

"Nephew, are you really not going to reconsider this?"

"Yue Ge is a good girl. If you get married, it will be good for both of you. I will naturally be willing to help you with the teaching team."

"You can have one lover or two. Relationships can be cultivated slowly."

"Maybe if you spend more time with Yue Ge, you'll develop feelings for her?"

Wenren Lianmo smiled bitterly in his heart, but did not show it on his face.

He knew Li Jue's intention clearly, this was just an exchange.

An exchange of the Li Family Academy's student resources in exchange for Li Yuege's marriage.

However, Wenren Lianmo did not want to use this as a bargaining chip.

His feelings and his marriage should be his own choice, not a transaction.

He nodded slightly, his tone firm and sincere.

"Mr. Li, I understand what you mean."

"Miss Yuege is extremely talented, virtuous and beautiful. She is truly a rare talent."

"However, Lian Mo already has a beautiful woman in his heart, and there is really no room for anyone else."

"You can't force feelings."

"If I use feelings as a bargaining chip, wouldn't that be a blasphemy to this relationship?"

Li Jue looked at Wenren Lianmo's determined eyes and couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart. She was worthy of being the person he had his eyes on.

He is truly a good son-in-law. If he and Yue Ge can be a perfect match, he will be able to rest in peace even after his death.

He sighed and said, "Since my dear nephew is so determined, I will not force you any more."

"But, I'm afraid Yue Ge will be sad for a long time because of this."

Wenren Lianmo lowered his eyes. He knew that Li Yuege was interested in him.

In the past, she always tried to get close to him by going to his house to visit her cousin Li Yaoshu.

Aunt Li Yaoshu also played a role in bringing them together.

But he couldn't reciprocate this feeling.

He stood up and bowed deeply to Li Jue.

"Mr. Li, I will do my best to persuade Miss Yue Ge to get married and let her understand that love cannot be forced."

Li Jue sighed, "Well, since you have made up your mind, I will not force you."

Wenren Lianmo breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say goodbye and leave, but he heard Li Jue speak again.

"However, since my nephew does not want to marry Yue Ge, then the matter of recruiting disciples..."

Although he kept saying that he would not force it, Wenren Lianmo knew that Li Jue was using the matter of recruiting disciples as a threat, but he did not want to compromise.

"Master Li, recruiting students is my personal business, so I won't bother you."

"I'm sorry for bothering you today. Elder Li, please take a good rest. I'll take my leave."

After saying that, Wenren Lianmo turned and left.

Li Jue looked at Wenren Lianmo's departing back and turned his gaze to the window.

He knew that his daughter really fell in love with Wenren Lianmo.

Even if Wenren Lianmo already has someone he likes, so what?

Things like feelings are ever-changing.
