"Yunxi, don't be angry with Old Man Li. He's already apologized to you. Don't you think you should forgive his ignorance?"
Professor Hu rubbed his hands together with a forced smile and said to Ye Yunxi.
"Yes, little Yunxi, please forgive him! We're still waiting for you to teach us how to plant!"
"Little girl, say something!"
Professor Fang and Professor Zhang stepped in to smooth things over, not forgetting to roll their eyes at Professor Li.
Seeing that Ye Yunxi was still silent, Professor Hu must have thought that Professor Li hadn't apologized properly, which was why Ye Yunxi wouldn't forgive him.
Professor Hu gets angry just thinking about it. If it weren't for Old Man Li, they would have already learned farming from little Yunxi.
Professor Hu became increasingly angry, and turned around to hit and curse Professor Li.
"Hey, you old codger, you don't want to learn, but we do! If it weren't for you talking about Yunxi, she would have already taught us how to farm."
The sweet potatoes, potatoes, and vegetables you ate before were all grown by Yunxi. If it weren't for me, would you have been able to eat those things?
"I'm so angry! Apologize to Yunxi right now, or I'll report you to the base commander!"
Professor Li was stunned by the sudden punch; he hadn't expected Professor Hu to actually do it. Now, he had completely lost face.
He was afraid of Professor Hu, who was a man of his word. He said he would beat him up, and he really did. If he didn't apologize properly, he was afraid Professor Hu would beat him to death.
Professor Zhang and Professor Fang hadn't reacted yet. By the time they did, they were pulling Professor Hu away to stop him from hitting Professor Li.
They even shouted, "Professor Li, you should apologize properly again, otherwise we really can't stop Professor Hu."
Ye Yunxi was stunned by Professor Hu's actions. She hadn't expected him to be so angry, yet defend her. He was openly opposing Professor Li.
Chen Zhe was stunned by what he saw. He wanted to laugh at Professor Hu's actions but dared not.
Zhou Yuan was in a panic, unsure which side to help. He was also worried that Professor Li might get seriously injured by Professor Hu, which would be difficult to explain to the base commander.
But he couldn't let Ye Yunxi suffer any injustice; the base commander had specifically instructed him to take good care of her. Now he was in a real bind.
Everyone around was looking at Professor Hu and Professor Li, wanting to laugh but not daring to.
Professor Li suddenly shouted.
"Enough, old man Hu, don't go too far! I apologize, okay?"
His shout ignited Professor Hu's anger, but he stopped when he heard the professor apologize.
Professor Li walked up to Ye Yunxi, took a deep breath, and spoke softly.
"Yunxi, I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please forgive my ignorance and forgive my rudeness. Please teach us how to plant."
Ye Yunxi looked at Professor Li and apologized to her, feeling wronged. If she didn't say something, Professor Hu would throw a tantrum again. Anyway, she hadn't been hurt, so she would forgive him.
"Alright, if I don't say anything, I'll seem petty."
"How could that be? Our Yunxi is such a kind and understanding girl." Professor Hu smiled and flattered Ye Yunxi after hearing that she had forgiven Professor Li.
He turned to Professor Li and said, "Hmm! Not bad, a promising young man, and a truly obedient old man like you!"
When Professor Li heard Professor Hu say that about him, he gave him a light snort.
Professor Hu ignored him and continued to flatter Ye Yunxi. "Yunxi, shouldn't we start planting now?"
Zhou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Yunxi had forgiven Professor Li.
Ye Yunxi didn't want to make a big deal out of it; anyway, she still had to plant the crops.
"Okay, let's begin as I just said."
Upon receiving Ye Yunxi's instructions, the professors began directing their staff to get to work, forbidding anyone from slacking off. They themselves also joined in the work.
After watching for a while, Zhou Yuan felt that everything was fine, so he bid farewell to Ye Yunxi and the professors and went back to report to Chief Wu.
Seeing that there were many of them, Ye Yunxi decided not to participate in the work and instead watched them work from the sidelines.
Zhou Yuan returned to the base commander's office and reported everything that had happened that day to Base Commander Wu.
Unexpectedly, this gave Commander Wu a pleasant surprise.
"Are you telling the truth? I never expected that Professor Hu would be bribed by Ye Yunxi and even hit Professor Li to protect her."
"Yes, Chief Wu, what I said is true. I didn't expect Professor Hu to hit Professor Li, and I was even stunned by Professor Hu's scolding."
Zhou Yuan thought of what had just happened and said with a slight smile.
"Professor Hu is notoriously difficult to deal with, and Professor Li has a rather eccentric personality. Handing them over to Ye Yunxi was definitely the right decision."
I hope the professors can get along well with Ye Yunxi, learn from her skills, and bring greater benefits to the base. I also hope his choice is correct.
Commander Wu sighed and said to Zhou Yuan.
"Chief Wu, don't worry, the professors will learn a lot from Ye Yunxi. Or you can also bring Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng into your fold."
Zhou Yuan thought for a moment and then told Base Chief Wu his idea.
"Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng are not ordinary people after all. They probably wouldn't agree to be taken into their possession."
After listening to Zhou Yuan's words, Wu Jidi fell into deep thought.
