Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Chapter 216 Questions

I finally made it to the end of my shift.

Zhang Xiaozhi almost jumped up from his seat instantly, and then left happily.

Before leaving, I didn't forget to say goodbye to them.

Xu Yun and others followed out in silence.

Only Wang Cong was in a good mood. He seemed to be completely relaxed, smiled and said goodbye to everyone, and then went home.

As for Gao Xu and the others... they just said hello politely and got in their cars to go home.

Xu Yun and Lu An stood at the gate of the Imperial College waiting for Zeng Wuji and Zhao Mu.

Seeing someone selling roasted lamb on the roadside, Lu An paid for two skewers of lamb and he and Xu Yun each ate one.

It's not that I'm greedy.

But many officials are buying it.

Although it was clear from their clothes that they were mostly ordinary officials, it did not prevent Lu An from chatting with them and asking them about something while waiting for the skewers.

Why didn't Xu Yun go? Mainly because Xu Yun was a woman.

Squeezing in to buy things...

Lu An felt it was inappropriate.

Zeng Wuji came out chatting and laughing with others.

He looked like a fish in water, which made it hard not to wonder whether it was really his first day at the Imperial College.

Otherwise, how could he be so familiar with people?

Xu Yun looked on with envy.

But talent is something that cannot be envied.

Zeng Wuji saw Xu Yun, so he said goodbye to the other people and trotted over.

He also told Xu Yun: "Zhao Mu asked us not to wait any longer, as he still has some work to do."

Xu Yun was a little surprised: "Is Zhao Mu assigning tasks now?"

Zeng Wuji nodded: "Zhao Mu took the initiative to ask for the job. It's about helping people copy and organize things. It's not a easy job."

What he didn't say was that Zhao Mu seemed to be having a lot of fun.

That's why he didn't ask Zhao Mu if he was bullied.

Xu Yun nodded, not too surprised: "Zhao Mu has a quiet temperament, but he is steady and has his own ideas. There is no need to worry too much."

She looked Zeng Wuji up and down and said, "But you actually made friends?"

Zeng Wuji grinned: "Yeah, I can get along well with them. They are not from aristocratic families, and they are not so arrogant."

Xu Yun: ...suddenly thought of Wang Cong.

Seeing that Lu An was about to finish the last two bites of meat, Zeng Wuji snatched it away, ate it in one gulp, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Let's go, let's get on the carriage first, and then ask someone to buy two more skewers so that we can eat our fill before leaving!"

He said, "I heard from them that the skewers here are delicious."

Of course, it’s not about eating skewers, it’s mainly about chatting.

Keep each other informed.

After getting on the carriage, Xu Yun asked Zeng Wuji directly: "What's the situation over there?"

Zeng Wuji smiled and said, "Just like you guys. We're all very free. Basically, we just spent the whole day talking and getting to know each other."

Xu Yun knew that he was really well-informed: "You even know what's going on here."

Zeng Wuji smiled and said, "It's not a secret. They were busy with the imperial examination some time ago. Now that the exam is over, they have some free time. When the students enter school, they will be busy again. However, some parts are destined to be less busy."

"For example, Zhang Siye, who is leading you, was previously in charge of marking the papers. It is said that his writing is very good. But he is rarely allowed to do anything on weekdays."

"The one who is leading us, Dr. Liu, will be responsible for teaching the students in the future. He is very knowledgeable about etiquette and other things."

Xu Yun was filled with admiration after hearing this.

Lu An was even more surprised and couldn't help asking, "How did you find out?"

"I asked them to cook a special meal for me." Zeng Wuji's eyes lit up: "They actually have stir-fried dishes! They are delicious! But they are expensive!"

Xu Yun: ... As expected, money can make everything happen. This cannot be learned. Nor is it necessary.

Gao Xu, Wang Cong, and Zhang Xiaozhi, none of them can be bribed by a meal.

Lu An was also very envious.

Xu Yun sighed, then turned to ask Lu An, "Wang Cong talked so much with Zhang Siye today, why didn't you say a word? Aren't you married too?"

As a result of this question, Lu An's face turned red.

Xu Yun and Zeng Wuji looked at each other, then smiled maliciously together: "There is a problem."

Lu An, who was always calm, showed his guilty conscience and evasiveness at this moment: "What's the problem? They are talking about children, and I don't have any children--"

"They also talked about their wives." Xu Yun exposed him.

Lu An's face turned red, and he blocked his lips with his fist while coughing, trying to change the subject: "It's getting late, and we should go home. Today is the first day after all, they must be worried and waiting for us to go back--"

Zeng Wuji rushed forward, held Lu An down, and pretended to hit him with a hammer: "Hurry up and tell me, or I'll hit you with my hammer -"

Lu An and Zeng Wuji had a big fight.

Xu Yun was also very happy watching from the side.

Finally, Lu An held Zeng Wuji down and smiled innocently: "Your fist looks like you didn't use any strength. Do you still want to scare me?"

Zeng Wuji was furious, "Ah Yun, look at him!"

Xu Yun couldn't help laughing, but he was also a little curious: "Let him go. But, Lu An, what is it that you can't say? You really can't say it?"

Lu An blushed and stammered, "It's not that I can't tell you, it's just... it's just..."

He glanced at Xu Yun, his face flushed, "I'm sorry to say that. You'd better not ask."

Xu Yun and Zeng Wuji really didn't ask.

Zeng Wuji twisted his fist and groaned: "How do you know I didn't use any strength? I learned horse riding and archery for several years--"

Lu An showed him his palms and explained the differences.

As he was speaking, the car curtain was suddenly lifted.

Luo Zhan found Xu Yun at a glance and said, "Thank you, Auntie, for letting me take you home smoothly."

Xu Yun got out of the car and followed Luo Zhan.

After Xu Yun got out of the car, Lu An and Zeng Wuji looked at each other blankly.

Zeng Wuji complained: "Are we not worthy of being seen by General Luo?"

Lu An was not sure: "It seems that General Luo is a little unhappy?"

Zeng Wuji looked at Lu An subconsciously: "Did you offend him?"

Lu An said it was impossible.

This is simply impossible - we have nothing in common, how could I possibly offend him?

Zeng Wuji thought for a while and said, "Maybe he encountered something unpleasant. It has nothing to do with us."

Lu An gave Zeng Wuji a look.

Zeng Wuji understood, what that meant was: Do you think it’s possible?

He stroked his chin and concluded, "It's weird anyway. But A-Yun should be fine. I think General Luo still trusts A-Yun."

Lu An nodded.

The two of them put the matter aside.

Xu Yun was still thinking about the Imperial College. After getting in the car, he asked Luo Zhan, "Do you guys eat in the cafeteria? Do you also take a lunch break when you have nothing to do?"

Luo Zhan said "hmm" and suddenly asked, "Why didn't you see me just now?"

His carriage was still parked there, but no one got out.

But Xu Yun never noticed it.

Xu Yun said "Ah", a little embarrassed: "Maybe I was too focused on talking."
