The Devil's Bride is Hard to Pursue 143
"Speak up, what's going on?" Jian Qinghan put down the test paper in his hand and looked at Su Lengfeng, asking aloud.
"From today on, after the teacher finishes grading the papers, the students will leave first and no longer stay with the teacher. Do you want to continue reading in this study or go back to rest, please do as you wish." Su Ling said calmly.
"What do you mean?" Jian Qinghan's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he asked loudly.
"I need time to practice alchemy, I don't want to waste my time in the study, that's what I mean." Su Ling replied calmly.
His handsome face sank, scolding: "What are you talking about? You actually think that studying in the study is a waste of time?"
"Isn't that right?" Su Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, reminding Jian Qinghan: "Teacher, don't forget, even if I stay in the study during class time, what I'm reading is also alchemy books, which are not within your teaching scope."
"I've already allowed you to read unrelated books during class, and now you're pushing your luck!" Jian Qinghan forcibly restrained the urge to slam his hand on the table.
"Teacher, you used the wrong word 'allow'. You simply lost the bet and are following through on it, which is what should be done. Moreover, when we first made the agreement, we said that if students pass the exam, they can use their remaining time as they see fit, but there was no restriction on the scope of activities during this period. So, students using their free time to leave the study room and do their own things shouldn't be a problem, right, teacher?"
"You..." Jian Qing's face turned pale and he was speechless.
"Teacher should also know that when it comes to practicing alchemy, no matter how strong the theoretical knowledge is, it's useless without time to improve proficiency."
It's not just alchemy, but also martial arts, spiritual arts, swordsmanship, and medicine... Whether it's an attacking profession or a supporting profession, the key to progress lies in one word: "practice". Simply reading books is not enough to make progress!
Jian Qing Han naturally understood the truth, and in his heart, he had already been persuaded by Su Ling Feng. He wanted to nod in agreement, but seeing Su Ling Feng's calm face that was cold enough to make people and gods angry, and recalling her attitude and tone towards him just now, he felt a surge of suffocation in his chest, and couldn't help but blurt out: "No! I don't agree!"
Su Ling gave Jian Qinghan a cold glance, then expressionlessly said: "Teacher, I brought this up with you today not to discuss it with you, but just to inform you." After speaking, he directly walked past the desk and headed for the door.
Jian Qing Han was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, turned around, and pointed shakily at the door. "You... you..." But he found that Su Ling Feng's figure had already disappeared, leaving only the open door, which swung gently in the wind, as if mocking him, this helpless teacher who couldn't handle his student...
Su Lengfeng left the study room and didn't immediately go to the basement to refine gold, but instead returned to his own residence, holding a fruit plate that Xunuo had cut for him, and slowly began eating.
Before long, Mu Da arrived at Lin Feng Yuan and said to Su Lianfeng: "Young lady, the city master has called you to his study..."
Su Ling didn't expect Mu Da's arrival at all, put the half-eaten fruit plate on the table, wiped her mouth and stood up: "Okay, let's go."
On the way to Si Tu Xiao Shan's study, Mu Da hesitated for a moment before asking, "Miss, did you... have an unpleasantness with Teacher Qing Han?"
"It's nothing." Su Leng said lightly: "It's just that on some issues, I don't quite agree with Teacher Qing Han."
"...Muta fell silent for a moment, then reminded her: "Miss, when you talk to the lord later, try to be gentle and don't contradict him."
"Uh-huh, I see." Su Lingfeng nodded, "Thanks, Butler Mudan."
Arriving at the study door, Muda knocked on the door: "Lord of the city, the young lady has arrived."
"Let her in!" Xiao Shan's tone was clearly laced with anger.
After Mu Xiu entered, he closed the door from the outside.
In the study.
Situ Xiao Shan sat calmly at his desk, exuding an intangible aura of pressure that chilled the air in the room by several degrees.
Jian Qing Han sat in a chair beside him, his body straight and upright, his expression serious and calm.
Su Lingfeng stepped forward and bowed to the two of them, "Honorable Uncle, Teacher Qinghan."
"Hmph!" Si Tu Xiao Shan's face sank, and he let out a cold snort: "What? I heard you've started skipping class? At such a young age, you're already so disrespectful to your elders. What kind of upbringing did that good-for-nothing father of yours give you?"
Su Ling's mouth twitched slightly at the corner, these years, Su Heng was basically destroyed by her own previous life anyway...
"Grandfather, I didn't skip class for no reason. I had a prior agreement with Teacher Jian Qinghan." Su Lingfeng said, turning his head to look at Jian Qinghan, "Right? Teacher Qinghan?"
Jian Liang's face turned red with anger, and in her heart, she secretly regretted it. How could she be so impulsive? She had actually been so reckless as to cause trouble all the way to Lord City Master's place...
"What agreement?" asked Siu Shan Xiao in confusion.
Jian Qing's face turned red with embarrassment as he recounted the story of how Su Feng and he had made a bet to Shi Tuo Xiao Shan.
Situ Xiao Shan listened to Jian Qing Han's account, raised an eyebrow and asked: "The answers given by this girl are completely correct? Really?"
"Yes, Lord City Master." Jian Liang Han took out a few stacked papers from his sleeve, unfolded them, and respectfully handed them to Sito Xiao Shan, "This is the test paper of Miss Ling Feng, please review it, Lord City Master."
Xiao Shao Shan stared at the test paper, the more he looked, the more surprised he was. Indeed, all the questions were correct without a single mistake! This girl actually had a photographic memory?!
Then, Situ Xiao Shan was relieved again. Ah, his granddaughter, rumored to have been an uneducated and untalented person, suddenly burst into brilliance, must be a naturally talented person with exceptional abilities. It's probably because of her mother's disobedience and that scoundrel from the Su family that this child's heart had gone cold...
Fortunately, he listened to Xun Chen's suggestion and took the child in, cultivating him until now is not too late...
Xiao Shan put down the test paper and seriously said to Su Feng: "Even if your grades are good, you shouldn't just say class is dismissed! This is too frivolous!"
"Grandfather, didn't Uncle Xiao already tell you that I have a three-month agreement with Yi Shuijue?" Su Lengfeng suddenly asked.
"This... has been said before." Xī Shuāi Mountain nodded, his heart had already roughly guessed what Sū Lǐng Fēng would say next.
Jian Qing Han heard this and was secretly shocked in her heart. She knew that alchemy genius Yi Shui Jue?
