Jian Luo fell into deep thought, wondering whether his work attitude was suitable for him to stay here and work.
"Ding Dong."
There is a message.
Jian Luo quickly opened the message and found that it was sent by the High Priest. When he saw the name Zhan Wentai, he felt a pain in his head and a numbness on his scalp. It was like he had suddenly met his class teacher.
Zhan Wentai: [Are you here for work?]
Jian Luo admitted humbly.
"It just so happens that the classes I had planned for you are almost over." Zhan Wentai said, "If you're free, come over. I'll have someone pick you up."
Since he had no clue about the watermelon matter for the time being, Jian Luo simply packed up and left.
Before leaving, he said to Wang Heng, "I'm going out for a while."
Wang Heng said without even looking up: "Go ahead."
"...You're not curious at all about where I'm going?" Jian Luo continued, "Or maybe you don't even want to ask what I'm doing outside?"
Wang Heng straightened up after hearing this. "Does it matter? You can't do anything here."
…
So cruel.
Jian Luo packed up and went to Phoenix Terrace. Now he went upstairs as easily as going home, and hardly needed anyone to lead him.
The attendant standing nearby said, "Please wait a moment on the fifth floor. Our master will be here soon."
Jian Luo nodded: "Okay."
"Don't misunderstand me," the attendant added, "Many of the Phoenix Clan's affiliated planets have numerous requests for instructions. Your Excellency is truly quite busy."
?
Question marks gradually appeared in Jian Luo's head.
He felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. How should I put it? It seemed that this explanation seemed to be perfectly sound at first glance, but upon closer inspection, something seemed to be wrong.
"Well... then he really worked very hard." Jian Luo said dryly: "You are all quite amazing."
The attendant smiled and said, "It's great that you understand. Our king is a very good man."
Jian Luo nodded silently.
He walked upstairs amidst the servant's strange aunt's smile. On the table there was already boiled hot tea and cut holy dragon fruit laid out. It could be said that everything was very well prepared. He consciously picked up the book to review.
As I was watching, I heard footsteps nearby. Zhan Wentai said, "How are you doing with the homework I assigned you last time?"
Jian Luo raised his head and saw the High Priest, who was met with a pair of golden eyes. He had seen many kinds of gold, but it was rare to see such a clean and pure gold as Zhan Wentai's eyes. It seemed to be detached from the mundane world, like a unique piece of jade.
Oh no…
Why did my face-loving nature strike again?
Zhan Wentai frowned: "What's wrong?"
"No!" Jian Luo said with a strong desire to survive: "I have finished my homework. I also asked Brother Long to help me correct it. He said it was no problem."
As he spoke, Jian Luo handed his homework to Zhan Wentai. Unexpectedly, the high priest remained silent for a long time after receiving the document.
The silence of death is the most deadly.
Jian Luo was uneasy at his silence. He said, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I wrote?"
Zhan Wentai said slowly, "You call him Brother Long?"
Jian Luoxin asked, "Will it seem disrespectful? Did I agree to this, or is it not nice to shout outside?"
Zhan Wentai was silent and said, "You called me Lord Priest."
???
Everyone is shouting like that!
Jian Luo stammered, "Is there something wrong? I don't really understand these titles."
Zhan Wentai thought for a while, his eyes fell on Jian Luo's body and he looked around slowly, finally landing on Jian Luo's belly, where she was already slightly pregnant. The originally thin human now looked a little fatter, round and plump, very cute.
Zhan Wentai said, "You can call me teacher."
"Hmm?" Jian Luo thought about it and felt that it was right. After all, when being guided by someone, it was perfectly proper to call someone "teacher." So, he said readily, "Teacher!"
Zhan Wentai's expression improved a little, and he nodded gently: "Yeah."
The servant standing not far away waiting to deliver the expedited documents had his hands trembling slightly. He finally confirmed the rumors circulating among the Phoenix Clan these days. It turned out that they might really be getting a princess, and the other party would be an ordinary human being!
Their king is usually a very pure and simple person. Apart from work, he spends his time practicing or meditating. He is very rule-abiding and boring. But since the appearance of Jian Hou, the High Priest has become very different!
"He's reading that history book that he knew by heart eight hundred years ago."
"In order to get closer to young people, he even studied how to take online classes."
"That's right, I took my lunch break just to spend time with that human."
All kinds of rumors spread. At the beginning, people suspected that the priest had a student, then they suspected that the priest had a lover, and finally it became the most serious version: they suspected that the human had a little phoenix.
The attendant's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly when he saw this scene. He gritted his teeth to prevent the sound from coming out. He really had never expected that the High Priest would be so carefree. Teacher-student play. He wondered if it would affect the little phoenix's values...
Zhan Wentai had no idea his subordinates were so imaginative. He put down the test paper and asked, "Correct. Did you do this yourself?"
Jian Luo on the opposite side said, "I did it myself. After having Brother Long check it, I found a few grammatical errors. I have already learned the correct usage."
Zhan Wentai nodded: "Very good, let's study the next unit today."
Jian Luo was full of energy: "Okay!"
The relationship between teacher and student became more and more harmonious. Zhan Wentai liked smart and motivated students, and Jian Luo was diligent and studious, so there was no conflict.
After the class ended, Jian Luo was packing up her books when she heard Zhan Wentai say, "The document from the Research Institute arrived today. I saw that your application was rejected?"
Jian Luo was stunned and replied hesitantly: "Well... I didn't know it would be so troublesome."
"Have you studied ancient Earth's culture?" Zhan Wentai asked. "The reason we don't easily approve it is because ancient Earth's culture is complex, and even humans can't translate it all. Too many attempts have failed, and opening the data repeatedly will affect the original data. If you can understand it, we can make an exception for you."
Jian Luo thought for a moment and said, "I can try."
To these people it was the ancient Earth, but to him it was just a matter of going back to take a look a year later. Those English and other things, especially the Chinese, were nothing to him, a native Chinese!
Zhan Wentai nodded: "Okay, I will give you permission once."
Jian Luo hesitated: "What if I don't figure out anything..."
"Nothing." Zhan Wentai's face was calm, and he said in a calm tone, "I can afford this loss."
…
Jian Luo looked at the nonchalant yet powerful look of the High Priest, and was suddenly moved. In fact, the Phoenix Clan was quite nice. The people of Yuese were also very nice to him. Even the vampires and the little emperor were very nice.
This is all because she has a baby in her belly.
He is very lucky, but all this is thanks to his children.
While feeling touched, Jian Luo also felt a little sad. These things were just sugar-coated bullets, and they were not because of her.
Jian Luo packed up his books and said, "Then I'm leaving."
Zhan Wentai frowned, not understanding why the human suddenly became depressed again, but the High Priest only nodded: "Yeah."
When Jian Luo came out of Phoenix Terrace, it was already time to get off work.
He made an appointment with Su Liang and decided to take her to the mall to buy two pieces of clothes in the evening. As the saying goes, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Beautiful clothes and cosmetics are, to some extent, part of what gives women confidence.
Secretary Jin called: "Luoluo, should I pick you up?"
"No, no." Jian Luo thought for a moment, "It's just that the driver might need to pick me up for a while. I need to go to the mall."
Secretary Jin was very excited: "Do you want to go shopping? Do you need me to go with you? I am quite familiar with the place, and I can use my gold card to pay for discounts."
Jian Luo was quite touched: "It's okay, it's okay. I'll go shopping with my mother. Thank you."
"It's okay." Secretary Jin sent him the gold card code: "Then remember to swipe this, you can get a discount, it's valid in all malls!"
Jian Luo put it away: "Thank you!"
The driver came to pick him up, and Jian Luo took the opportunity to meet Su Liang. The Sky City of Dark Star was very prosperous, especially the Central Shopping Mall, which was like an Oriental Pearl standing in the sky, dazzling and beautiful, brightly lit, and exuding its unique nobility from top to bottom.
It was Su Liang's first time in a place like this, so he felt a little reserved: "Luoluo, do we really have to buy things in such an expensive place?"
Jian Luo held her arm and said, "Mom, this is the shopping mall where the Dark Star people spend their daily money. It's not a very expensive place. Besides, this isn't a waste. I, your son, can still afford to buy you two sets of clothes with my daily salary!"
The first and second floors are all women's clothing.
Jian Luo had only bought men's clothing before, so this time she went to a women's clothing store she had never been to before: "Let's take a look first."
Su Liang looked up at the dazzling array of clothes, his eyes sparkling with astonishment. "So beautiful..."
The welcoming waiter came over enthusiastically, but his eyes dimmed when they met Su Liang. He was a human, and was dressed very poorly.
The waiter's attitude was indifferent: "You two can choose whatever you want."
Jian Luo was stunned.
When Lu Shifeng brought him here before, the waiters in every store were very nice. Why are they suddenly like this now?
Su Liang also felt a little embarrassed, and she looked at Jian Luo.
Jian Luo smiled at her soothingly and pulled her to pick out clothes. He saw a simple white long skirt on the shelf, which was very suitable for Su Liang's temperament. He pointed at it and asked, "Mom, what do you think of that one?"
Su Liang nodded: "It's pretty good, very nice, but I don't know the price..."
Jian Luo smiled and soothed him, "It's okay, just try it first, don't worry about the money."
Now that he had decided on the dress, Jian Luo turned to the waiter and said, "Hello, please take that dress down so we can try it on first."
The waiter glanced at me indifferently, and said with some undisguised contempt in his voice: "Sorry, you can't try it."
Jian Luo was silent: "Why?"
"It's dirty once you try it on." The waiter snorted, "If it's dirty, you have to buy it."
…
Jian Luo suddenly felt a fire burning in his heart.
Su Liang's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she pulled Jian Luo's hand: "Luoluo, let's forget it, let's go out, this dress is just so-so."
Just as the situation was at a stalemate, a voice suddenly came from not far away——
"Is that Mr. Jane?"
Jian Luo turned around and saw the waiter standing in the middle of the road opposite her, looking over at her. She was overjoyed: "Are you here to buy clothes today too?"
This is the same store where I bought men's clothes last time.
I remember that Lu Shifeng directly booked the entire store, but I didn’t expect that the store was just opposite. Jian Luo hadn’t noticed this before.
The waiter was very surprised: "Have you picked out the right one? If not, you can come to our store to have a look!"
