"When has your life been in danger?"
return?
Ye Jiao frowned. "A few years ago, I fell into a pond on a snowy night and nearly drowned. He saved me."
Jiang Xiangbei's hand, which was hanging on the side of his thigh, couldn't help but tighten. "How do you know it was him who saved you? And not someone else?"
Ye Jiao said as a matter of course: "It was too dark at the time and I couldn't see his face clearly. I grabbed a button from his body. Later, I fainted and when I woke up, Liu Xi told me that it was Jiang Huaichuan who carried me to the hospital. He saved me."
Hearing this, Jiang Xiangbei instantly understood everything.
It turned out that he had done a rare good deed that year, but all the rewards were snatched away by his nephew.
Jiang Xiangbei felt a little blocked and helpless, "So do you like Jiang Huaichuan as a person, or do you like him because he saved you?"
Ye Jiao didn't know what he was thinking, and said, "At first, I may have liked him because he saved me. Later, I found that he was a very good person, so I liked him even more."
Jiang Xiangbei: "..."
He gritted his teeth and asked word by word, "He's excellent? Tell me what makes him excellent?"
"He..." Ye Jiao almost blurted out everything in her head. She paused and asked curiously, "Master, he's your nephew. Do you need me to give you an example to prove whether he's excellent or not?"
Seeing that the master looked unhappy, Ye Jiao quickly added, "If we talk about excellence, the master is naturally better. In my heart, the master is the most powerful person in the world!"
The master is such a proud person, he certainly doesn't want his apprentice to praise other people in front of him.
Ye Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she reacted quickly.
Hearing her soft and sweet voice, Jiang Xiangbei felt better. "In your heart, who is better, me or him?"
Ye Jiao was surprised. After a few seconds of silence, she quickly responded, "Of course the master is better!"
Jiang Xiangbei continued to ask: "Who do you like more?"
"I..." Ye Jiao was a little dazed. She didn't understand why her master asked such a question. Did he really like her? Was that why he minded her liking Jiang Huaichuan? Was that why he wanted to compete with him?
But she quickly dismissed the idea.
She is such an ordinary girl, how could the master really like her?
Or maybe I have a better memory? I'm more hardworking than Li Beibei?
So that's why the master chose her instead of Li Beibei?
As for the matter of 'liking' or not, Ye Jiao believed that anyone worthy of her master must be the best girl in the world, the irreplaceable kind!
After figuring it out, she quickly composed herself and grinned, "Once a teacher, always a father! Naturally, I like my master more!"
Jiang Xiangbei: "..." What a lifelong father!
"But I don't want a daughter."
Jiang Xiangbei said with a hint of disdain, "Although I am older than you and your master, the age difference between us is not enough for me to be your father."
Ye Jiao uttered an "Ah" and quickly said, "I'm sorry, Master. I didn't mean to say anything about your father... I just wanted to say... I wanted to say that I respect you very much, just like I respect my elders!"
"I don't want to be your elder."
Ye Jiao blurted out: "Then what does Master want to be?"
Jiang Xiangbei opened his mouth slightly, but when he saw the little girl's bright eyes, he swallowed back what he wanted to say, "Forget it, it's getting late, go back and rest early."
After saying that, he started walking forward.
Ye Jiao tilted her head and looked at his back. What?
