"Thank you, Mom."
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief and reminded him, "By the way, don't ask too obviously. The other party's background is definitely not simple, so as not to put the principal in a difficult position."
"rest assured."
Seeing that his mother readily agreed, Lin Mo skipped the topic and couldn't help but smile. "Mom, I want to take Xiaoyuer out to play tomorrow."
"cut--"
Lin Shu pouted, "Son, although you inherited your mother's excellent genes and are quite good-looking, can you please stop being so arrogant? You want to take her out to play, and she'll go with you? How can you be so shameless!"
While insulting others, they don't forget to brag a little.
Lin Mo wasn't angry. He had always been like this since he was a child and was used to it. He said calmly, "She will come with me."
Lin Shu frowned. "Isn't she busy reviewing high school material lately? I tried to ask her out shopping tomorrow, but she refused. Would she go out with you?"
"meeting."
Lin Shu protested indignantly, "Why should I?"
"because……"
Lin Mo smirked, "My son has a big face!"
"..."
Lin Shu rolled her eyes, never expecting that this brat would use her own words to shut her up.
Lin Mo coughed lightly, stood up and said, "Don't prepare lunch for me and Xiaoyuer tomorrow. I'm going back to my room."
"and many more!"
Before Lin Mo could even reach the door, his mother's voice came from behind him.
He turned his head in confusion, "Mom, is there anything else?"
Lin Shu smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. You just said your face is big, so Mom wants to try it out herself and see just how big your face really is."
"what?"
Lin Mo immediately understood what his mother meant and swallowed hard, saying, "Mom, I was just joking with you. Why did you take it seriously?"
"A joke? No, I don't think it's a joke."
Lin Shu remained unmoved. "Come here, let Mom fan you... and take a look."
"..."
Chapter 123 I'm from Class Two!
"wrong."
"roll."
Finally, the bickering between mother and son came to an end after Lin Mo gave in.
After watching her son return to his room, Lin Shu chuckled softly and muttered to herself, "This brat, he's determined not to admit it, isn't he? Fine, I won't believe it, I'll make him admit it!"
After saying that, she remembered what her son had told her earlier, found the number she had left and dialed it.
The call connected, and Gu Hai's voice came through.
"Ms. Lin?"
"it's me."
Lin Shu cut to the chase: "Principal Gu, I heard from Xiao Mo that a transfer student has joined the class. Who is this person?"
Gu Hai smiled wryly, "Ms. Lin, to be honest with you, I don't know anything about Jiang Xiao's background either. I only know that he was introduced by the governor."
"Governor?"
Hearing this, Lin Shu looked surprised. "It's just a transfer student, yet a governor has to come forward. They really have quite the airs!"
"Who says it isn't?"
Gu Hai smiled apologetically and said, "Logically speaking, since the other party knows the governor, there is no reason for them to come to study in our small place, Jingchuan."
Lin Shu frowned slightly and continued to ask, "I heard from Xiao Mo that the transfer student named Jiang Xiao asked to see An Youyu?"
"Correct."
Gu Hai admitted truthfully, "After all, the other party was introduced by the governor, so I still have to give them face. However, Ms. Lin can rest assured that, according to Teacher Yan, the two only met briefly and did not communicate much throughout the meeting."
"Alright, in that case, I won't disturb Principal Gu's rest any longer."
Lin Shu put down her phone, her eyes revealing a meaningful look. "Interesting. It seems Xiao Mo was right; the other party's background is indeed not simple."
The Xia Kingdom had a territory consisting of nine provinces, each province containing nine provinces and each province containing eighteen cities.
Jingchuan City is under the jurisdiction of Jiangbei Province, which in turn is under the jurisdiction of Haizhou.
Above the governor, only the Senate remains.
Each governor wields enormous power.
Why would the governor have to get involved in something as trivial as transferring schools?
There are numerous families, large and small, in Xia State, but there are definitely no more than ten families with this much power...
The next morning.
A little after seven o'clock, at the entrance of No. 2 Middle School.
Jiang Xiao, dressed in black, stood with his hands clasped behind his back, surveying his surroundings with an arrogant expression. He frowned in confusion, "Strange, why can't we see a single person at this hour?"
Behind him stood four bodyguards in black suits and an elderly man in fine clothes. This man was none other than Jiang Xiao's master, Yan Tianzong!
For most people, the term 'guru' may be very unfamiliar.
But for members of a large family, it's perfectly normal.
Every young member of the direct line of the family, when they are six years old, will have a master chosen for them by the family.
In a sense, a guru is a teacher, except that compared to a school teacher, a guru teaches more comprehensively and in more complex ways.
The transmission of knowledge is merely the most basic thing.
Courage, vision, business experience, and so on are all taught by the master.
The excellence of the younger generation is directly related to the master they follow.
This is why large families are both serious and cautious when searching for a spiritual master for their direct descendants.
Yan Tianzong adjusted his reading glasses, a smile playing on his wise eyes. He slowly took out his phone from his pocket and glanced at the date. "Second Young Master, it's Saturday today. School doesn't seem to be in session."
"Not going to class?"
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded, and an uncontrollable embarrassment appeared on his charming face.
No wonder Yan Shiming looked so strange yesterday when he said he would arrive at school on time today. Why didn't he remind me?
hateful!
Fortunately, there weren't many people around, so it wasn't too embarrassing.
Jiang Xiao took a deep breath, suppressing the embarrassment in his heart, and said expressionlessly, "Master Yan, I know it's Saturday today, and I know there are no classes today; the reason I came to the school is just to familiarize myself with the environment here, since I will be spending more than a month here."
He made such a lame excuse sound perfectly reasonable.
Yan Tianzong smiled faintly, then bluntly retorted, "Second Young Master, isn't that a bit off? If you're here to familiarize yourself with the school, why are you carrying a schoolbag?"
Jiang Xiao: “…”
Don't slap people in the face when you hit them, don't expose their shortcomings when you scold them!
If someone else were to sabotage him like this, he would make them regret ever being born.
Can……
The person before me is Yan Tianzong!
"cough--"
Yan Tianzong feigned ignorance and asked, "Second Young Master, why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"
"Master Yan, please stop making fun of me, okay?"
Jiang Xiaosheng sighed helplessly, "You probably don't understand why I came to No. 2 Middle School this time, do you?"
"Purpose?"
Yan Tian twirled the walnut in his hand. "If I'm not mistaken, the fact that the Second Young Master suddenly proposed going to school, and specifically to a small place like Jingchuan, means there must be something here that attracts you."
A glint of shrewdness shone in his aged eyes. "It's nothing more than... people or things. Given the Second Young Master's family background, it's unlikely that anything could attract you. That leaves only one possibility: there's someone at Jingchuan No. 2 Middle School who's drawing you in..."
His voice trailed off, a faint smile appearing on his deeply lined face. "Does the Second Young Master still want me to continue pushing?"
Jiang Xiao remained silent for a while before raising his head again. "Master Yan, I'd like to see your reasoning abilities."
Yan Tianzong bowed and continued, "Second Young Master has never had many friends since childhood. Since there is someone here who attracts you, it is most likely a girl. After all, like repels like, while opposites attract."
"Before coming to Jingchuan, I did some research. Recently, a rather outstanding girl has emerged at No. 2 Middle School, An Youyu, right?"
Upon hearing Yan Tianzong mention An Youyu's name, Jiang Xiaoqing couldn't help but gasp.
He came to Jingchuan to study and never said anything to Yan Tianzong. He only informed Yan Tianzong of the news the day before he came to Jingchuan, but Yan Tianzong easily deduced the purpose of his coming to Jingchuan.
Really scary!
Fortunately, Yan Tianzong was his man, not his opponent.
If he had such a formidable opponent, he probably wouldn't even be able to sleep peacefully.
Yan Tianzong keenly noticed the subtle change in Jiang Xiao's eyes, stroked his beard and smiled, "Second Young Master, you don't need to think too much. No matter when, no matter what happens, I, Yan, will always stand by your side."
Jiang Xiao's expression shifted slightly, and he asked with considerable curiosity, "Why is Master Yan so certain? You know, there are so many wonderful things in the world, how can you be so sure that your stance will not waver?"
Despite his unremarkable appearance, Yan Tianzong held the rank of a sixth-grade Grand Scholar.
In the entire Xia Kingdom, there are only three Grand Scholars of the sixth rank.
Apart from Yan Tianzong, one of them teaches at Tsinghua University, and the other is semi-retired.
Yan Tianzong sighed and recalled, "Your mother was very kind to me back then. Without her support, I wouldn't be who I am today. And you are indeed outstanding. At my level, I have no desires and wants. Without desires, I cannot be tempted, and without wants, I cannot be moved."
