"Thank you, Lord Xiao Xiao."
Scholar bowed slightly.
"If anything comes up, you can ask Yue to come find me at school."
Xiao Xiao added.
"Okay."
Scholar smiled, eyes narrowing.
"Lord Xiao Xiao, you really are such a good person."
He'd been given another "you're such a good person" card.
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"Then I'll be going."
"Goodbye."
"Take care, Lord Xiao Xiao."
Scholar tilted his head, as if sensing something.
Then it saw Plum Blossom Woman appear again.
She was bowing in the direction Lord Xiao Xiao had gone to see him off.
Its eyes lit up at once.
"Plum Blossom Woman!"
It rushed to her side.
The next second, Plum Blossom Woman vanished into thin air.
Scholar: ...
It hadn't even gotten the chance to invite her...
Next time!
Scholar clenched its fist.
Next time, it would definitely seize the opportunity.
It would definitely get Plum Blossom Woman to agree to be its model!
Xiao Xiao returned to school.
Friday came again.
Xiao Xiao thought he'd go home tomorrow and have a look.
He was curious about how Scholar's painting was coming along.
If he hadn't had class in the afternoon, he would've wanted to go home and check on it then.
"Hey, hey!"
Li Yan, sitting in front, turned around.
"You've got such a gossipy look on your face."
Zhuge Yun teased.
Li Yan: ...
"Are you guys going to listen or not?"
"We're not listening. You don't have to say anything."
Zhuge pursed his lips.
Li Yan: ...
"We want to hear it."
Zhao Luzheng spoke up. "We want to hear."
"Zhao Luzheng is much more likable."
Li Yan smiled gratefully at Zhao Luzheng.
"Unlike you, kid."
"You're not likable at all!"
"Oh."
Zhuge Yun
