Chapter Thirty-Nine: Becoming His Little Follower II
Mu Ci smiled faintly, as if he saw Chang An's doubts, and whispered to Chang An: "It seems that I don't look like this stinky boy at all, right?"
Chang An nodded violently, and then couldn't help asking: "I heard that the great god has his mother's surname, but why is the teacher's surname Mu?"
"My original name was Gu Muci, and when I was young, I published several academic papers under the pseudonym Mu Ci, and over time, few people knew my surname. β
"Oh. Chang An suddenly realized.
Zhao Jian laughed a few times: "Eat quickly, if you don't eat any more vegetables, it will be cold." β
The four of them spoke at the same table, and the atmosphere was not bad. Most of them are Chang An and Zhao Jian chatting, Mu Ci sometimes echoes and says a few words, and Gu Li doesn't say much, only occasionally interjects, but as soon as he speaks, it is better not to speak!
"How are you thinking about it?" When the meal was almost finished, Gu Li put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at Chang An and asked.
"What?" Chang An's face was full of question marks, what was he thinking about?
"Didn't the old man tell you?"
"What kind of old man is not old, no big or small, called uncle. Mu Ci picked up his chopsticks and made a gesture of hitting him.
Chang An looked at the teacher and Gu Li with a smile, and suddenly she remembered Shen Zilan, it seemed that their family got along very specially.
"What are you laughing at? I haven't said what you're thinking about?Do you want to go to Y City to be my assistant?" Gu Li coughed lightly twice, and said seriously.
To be able to learn from the great god, Chang An couldn't ask for it, but she thought about it, if the great god agreed as soon as she opened her mouth, it would seem how unreserved she was, so she was ready to ......
Chang An pondered for a moment, and uncertainty appeared on his face, "I'll think about it." β
"What's the point of hesitation? It's for you to be my assistant, not for you to die, so you don't have to be so miserable. There was a bit of arrogance in Gu Li's tone.
"It's you who beg people, pay attention to attitude. Zhao Jian tugged at the corner of Gu Li's clothes and whispered softly.
"You kid, be kind to my apprentice. Mu Ci opened his mouth and drank him.
Gu Li ignored them, raised his hand and glanced at his watch, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was arrogance in his eyes, "It's been thirty seconds, have you thought about it?"
Chang An pulled a smile at him, who would think that it would only take thirty seconds?!
Gu Li looked directly into her eyes, his gaze was a little cold, which couldn't help but make Chang An's head tighten, and then he heard his deep and clear voice: "There is only one opportunity, if you miss it, there will be no one, three, two......"
"I've thought about it!" Chang An replied without thinking: "I'm willing to be your little follower, but ...... I have to wait for my side to finish my graduation defense before I can go to Y City. β
Gu Li bowed slightly, as if he was very satisfied with this answer, and a smile appeared in his eyes, fading his cold color.
Chang An looked at Gu Li's appearance, and suddenly felt like he had been fooled. However, whatever, it is beautiful to be able to follow the great god to solve the case.
"Okay, in this case, my task is also completed, as you said, if Chang An promised you to go to Y City, you have to stay and play chess with me for three days. Mu Ci wiped the stains from the corners of his mouth, as if he was very happy.
Chang An listened to the teacher's words, her heartstrings were plucked, and the corners of her mouth raised a smile that even she hadn't noticed.
In the next few days, Gu Li was very trustworthy, and would report to Mu Ci's office on time every day, don't ask Chang An how she knew, because she was arrested and handed over tea and water.
Chang An was busy preparing for the graduation defense, and he didn't have enough time, and he was so disturbed by Gu Li that he didn't have time to prepare. Although she is confident in herself, she also wants to make the end of her student's career perfect. However, judging from the current situation, it is unlikely.
Chang An complained to Gu Li, but he didn't care, and said confidently: "Sooner or later, if you have to adapt to this kind of life, you should practice in advance." β
Please, she is Mu Ci's proud protΓ©gΓ©, no matter how bad she is, she won't be reduced to helping people serve tea and water! Chang An stood aside, his eyes fell on Gu Li's body, and some pictures surfaced in his mind, fantasizing about the "miserable life" in the future.
Suddenly, she regretted it a little, after all, what she wanted was to follow the great god to solve strange cases, catch criminals, and steal teachers to learn...... This is too far from the ideal!
After about a week, Gu Li still did not leave N City, and Chang An did not escape the fate of being arrested to serve tea and water, and occasionally acted as his cook.
In the past few days in N City, Gu Li lived in Mu Ci's house, and Chang An was called by him from time to time to call him to the teacher's house to help him make fish. Chang An had almost forgotten whether she was studying chef or criminal mind.
On this day, Chang An carried a basket of vegetables and buckled the door of the teacher's house. She looked at the fish that were still bouncing in the basket, and couldn't help but sigh: The little follower is not as good as she imagined......
Mu Ci looked at Chang An and Gu Li, his smile deepened, and he said meaninglessly: "This kid will be a blessed person in the future." It's just that the voice was very soft, and Chang An and Gu Li didn't notice it.
During the banquet, Mu Ci always stared at the two of them with a strange look, laughing twice from time to time, that appearance made Chang An feel indescribable, and she asked weakly: "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"
Could it be...... Won five million? But he doesn't look like it, or is he sick? Chang An looked at Mu Ci's loving eyes, and there was a bit of weirdness in them, which made her feel very strange.
"Nothing, I'm just happy. Mu Ci drank the fish soup and replied with a smile, and the corners of his mouth never closed during the banquet.
After the meal, Chang An washed fruits in the kitchen, while Gu Li and Mu Ci played chess in the living room. When she came out with the fruit plate, the game was in a stalemate, and it was impossible to tell who was at a disadvantage.
Chang An also knew a thing or two about playing chess, but she watched quietly and didn't speak.
After a few more rounds, slowly, Chang An could see that the teacher was at a disadvantage. Mu Ci had been neat and tidy when he fell, but now he was hesitating.
"Old man, are you sure you want to be here?" Gu Li asked him with a smile.
"Uh......" Mu Ci was a little uncertain.
Chang An had already seen that the teacher had lost several times, and out of unbearability, he leaned close to Mu Ci's ear and whispered: "Teacher, you will lose here! You should go down there......"
Mu Ci pushed his reading glasses, then put the chess pieces back and began to play tricks: "No, no, it's here." β
"Old man, you have no regrets, how can you be like this?" Gu Li feigned anger, then glanced at Chang An again, and said, "Do you know that 'watching chess and not talking is a true gentleman'?"
Chang An put on an indifferent look, "I'm not a gentleman, I'm a woman." β
After speaking, Chang An also made a grimace, looking extremely calm, as if he had been with Gu Li for a long time and had learned to talk back to him.
"You kid, can't you let your uncle do it? You win every hand, don't play, don't play. With that, Mu Ci disrupted the chess game.
"You are the one who asked me to stay and play chess with you, you are the one who cheats, and now you are the one who says that you will not play, is there an uncle like you? Or is it a university professor who is a teacher......?"
Sure enough, Gu Li didn't care who the other party was, even his own uncle couldn't be spared.
"Come on, come on, eat some fruit, eat some fruit. Chang An felt the need to stop Gu Li from continuing, otherwise, she would have been half angry with him......
