Chapter 215 Using You to Trade for Food
The servant behind Dean Xue felt he could no longer see his master clearly.
They had been lingering at the door for a long time, because the dean was so melancholy, and they even saw that Dr. Jiang had already left.
"Don't rush me, I have my own reasons."
In fact, Dean Xue had already prepared himself mentally, but when he mustered up the courage to go in, he saw Dr. Jiang come out. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he inexplicably hid back behind the wall.
Now that Dr. Jiang has left, how can he possibly leave again?
"Dean, why don't we go and beg Dean Yue? After all, Dean Yue is our lady's senior brother, he shouldn't stand by and watch her die."
"I'll go and beg him!" Dean Xue's voice suddenly rose, then, realizing he was being too loud, he lowered it again, saying, "I can handle my own affairs. What, you don't believe me?"
Dean Xue found the servant in front of his son extremely annoying, and as if to prove something, he strode out from behind the big tree with a proud and arrogant air.
He had only gone halfway when he subconsciously ran back.
The servant looked speechless: "Dean, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, a hand suddenly reached out from his side and delivered a swift chop, causing the servant to faint instantly.
Dean Xue was stunned: "You audacious thief!"
Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was covered.
The next second, he met the old man's excited face: "Hey, finally a thief has come to our door. Hand you over, and I'll have a good meal tonight, hehehe."
"Speak!" he said, ignoring Dean Xue's resistance. Before Dean Xue's almost horrified eyes, a karate chop knocked him unconscious.
Dean Xue's last thought before he fainted was
That's it, my lifelong reputation is ruined here!
What devastated him even more was that he seemed to vaguely hear Dean Yue's voice before he fainted.
For a moment, he even thought it would be nice to just stay unconscious.
But who knew? When he opened his eyes again, he was met with Dean Yue's mocking gaze.
"Oh ho, who is this? How could the dignified dean of Gu Kui Academy do such a petty and despicable thing?"
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
Dean Yue asked with amusement, "What brings you here? You're here even earlier than me. You're not here to pay your respects, are you?"
Dean Xue: "You, you, you..."
"What do you mean, 'you'? You thief, shut up, you're disturbing my ears."
The old man lay leisurely behind him, drinking rice tea. When he heard Dean Xue speak, he picked his ear in dissatisfaction.
Dean Xue looked incredulous: "I only said one sentence, and he mumbled a whole bunch of things. Don't you find it annoying?"
The old man squinted: "What nonsense are you spouting? We're both masters in this family, but we have different statuses, don't you understand?"
As he spoke, he added with a hint of impatience, "If it weren't for Ah Nuan saying that we could exchange living animals for vegetables, I would have thrown you out long ago."
Dean Xue choked on his words: "What do you mean, 'change dishes'?"
"Wait, sir, I'm Xue Fengyi. We met yesterday, do you remember me?"
"I am not a thief. I actually have urgent business to discuss with Doctor Jiang. Please be lenient and let me go."
"No way, not a chance. You'd better behave yourself. When Anuan comes back, I'll trade you for her food."
Dean Xue heard the suggestion of trading him for food twice, and asked with a strange expression, "What kind of food? What does this mean?"
"Tsk!" Dean Yue looked at him and couldn't help but shake his head with his arms crossed: "That's hilarious, you didn't even understand? We're just going to use you as a dish."
As she spoke, she moved closer to him with a wicked grin: "Old man, do you usually prefer steaming or boiling, or slow cooking?"
The old man tilted his head and thought seriously for a moment: "I like fried food."
Dean Xue's face turned deathly pale in an instant.
In a daze, looking at the old man's face, I felt only a chilling and terrifying feeling.
This person doesn't look like a good person. Could he be the kind who eats people without spitting out the bones?
Just as she was being tormented by mental anguish, she vaguely saw Li Rong and immediately cried out, "Brother Li, Brother Li, please save me! We met yesterday!"
Li Rong was carrying the medicinal herbs he had just selected when he heard the plea for help. He frowned and said to the old man next to him, "Senior, you are the dean after all. It's not right to treat you like this."
"What's wrong with it? This is my food. If you dare touch it, I'll break your legs."
Upon hearing this, Li Rong nodded slightly to Dean Xue: "Dean Xue, rest assured, the senior will not do anything to you. However, I cannot do anything to him either. Now, I am not in a position to interfere."
He nodded and pushed his wheelchair to sit next to the table, carefully placing the medicinal herbs in the millstone and grinding them little by little.
Dean Xue choked, staring at Li Rong for a long while, only to find that he didn't even give him a glance.
He even suspected that this person was still holding a grudge against those two bastards in his family yesterday and was deliberately ignoring him.
Seeing that Li Rong was useless, Dean Xue looked to Li Junping for help.
At that moment, Li Junping came out of the house and was obediently washing his face, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes. However, when Li Junping saw him, he didn't seem surprised at all, but simply walked up to him and greeted him: "Hello, Dean Xue."
Then, he went directly to Dean Yue's side and served him tea: "Master, where are we going today?"
The two are worlds apart.
Dean Xue felt uneasy. Who would have thought that not long ago, Li Junping was kneeling in front of his door begging for his forgiveness, and now, just a few days later, it was his turn to ask for help.
Now, he has repeatedly tried to ask Li Junping for help, even if it's not to untie the ropes binding him, it would be good if he could at least call Doctor Jiang for him.
However, after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't open his mouth.
After enduring both psychological and physical torment for a long time, she finally heard Jiang Nuanzhi's voice from afar.
I glanced over instinctively and saw Jiang Nuanzhi carrying two large baskets of things, riding home on horseback with Xiao Er.
"Dr. Jiang, Dr. Jiang, you're finally back!" Dean Xue almost cried tears of joy.
At that moment, Xiao Baozhu was running out to greet her mother when she realized that someone else was even more anxious than her. She rushed into Jiang Nuanzhi's arms, stretched out her little hand earnestly, and asked in confusion, "Mother, look, that grandpa from yesterday, he was even more eager for you to come back than I was."
Jiang Nuanzhi picked up the small pearl and looked over instinctively, then exclaimed in surprise, "Dean Xue!"
Dean Xue forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "I'm sorry, Dr. Jiang, I'm troubling you again."
