After the scum of the paranoid villain, I failed to escape

Chapter 72 Wei Shu
Restaurants on the Changsu River Wharf.

Zuo Weiyue looked at Wei Xiaoya who was devouring before her eyes, and then at Wei Shu who was sitting next to Wei Xiaoya, who was very restless, and was a little surprised how Lou Huai recognized his identity.

"Brother, good Qi, you cough cough too."

The little girl who took off the mask didn't look like Wei Shu at all. She had a pair of beautiful almond eyes, and an immature face that hadn't opened yet was extremely thin.

There is still some sickness on the cheeks, presumably due to physical illness.

Seeing that she was choking while talking, Wei Shu, with a bookish face, hurriedly patted her on the back to cheer her up.

"Ninny, eat slowly, no one will fight with you."

When Wei Xiaoya got better, Wei Shu pursed his chapped lips and looked at Lou Huai, who was in front of him with an extremely ordinary face: "How did you recognize me?"

In the cabin before, not long after Lou Huai called out Wei Shu's name, a group of crew members returned to the cabin to pick up things.

In order to help the brothers and sister Wei Shu get out of trouble, Lou Huai and Wei Shu first helped the woman who had passed out to the couch, pretending that she was resting.

Then he told the crew members that the Wei Shu brother and sister had come with them and fooled them.

After doing this, Zuo Weiyue heard the sound of hunger gurgling from Wei Xiaoya's stomach, and guessed that she probably didn't eat, so she suggested to find a restaurant first.

That's why they are here now.

Lou Huai looked at Wei Shu's pale lips from being hungry, and instead of answering him first, he asked him to finish the meal in front of him first.

"Don't worry, let's finish eating first."

Wei Shu was indeed very hungry. In order to save rations for the sick Wei Xiaoya to eat early in the morning, he only drank thin porridge soup.

By this time, I was already hungry and a little dizzy.

After a moment of silence, he finally moved his chopsticks and started eating.

Although the two brothers and sisters are very hungry, they are still considered gentle when it comes to eating.

It must not be good for Zuo Weiyue and Zuo Weiyue to stare at the people eating, so she tugged at Lou Huai's sleeves, pointed to the location of the terrace outside the tea house, and said in a breathy voice next to his ear: "Muggle Lou, Let's go over there."

Lou Huai didn't have much interest in watching people eat, so after talking to Wei Shu, he got up and went to the outer terrace.

Because this place is close to the bank of the Changsu River, the river wind is stronger, and the fishy smell is stronger.

When he arrived at the place, Lou Huai subconsciously unfolded his windshield cloak, motioning for Zuo Weiyue to come in and speak.

Of course, Zuo Weiyue also smelled the fishy smell that she couldn't bear, she didn't think much about it, she got into Lou Huai's cloak like a little kangaroo that got into a mother kangaroo's pouch.

Then she looked up at the young man who was much taller than her and asked, "How do you know that he belongs to Wei Shu? Have you met him before?"

Lou Huai was not surprised that Zuo Weiyue would rush to ask him about this matter due to his impatient nature, so he helped her straighten her hair that had become a little messy due to getting into his cloak: "I haven't seen it before, but I've been working in the City of Eternal Cold for the past few days. When I was young, I vaguely heard that Wei Shu would take his sister with him wherever he went."

"From what you mean, Wei Shu is still a celebrity in the City of Eternal Cold?"

Zuo Weiyue sniffed another fishy wind blowing past, and after poking her little head into Lou Huai's cloak, she recalled the embarrassment of Wei Shu, brother and sister just now.

I wondered if the luck value task was released by mistake, so why would the system let him become Lou Huai's power for a person who looks rather embarrassed? Is this kind of person really useful?
Lou Huai nodded: "Well, I haven't passed the imperial examination for ten years, do you think you are famous?"

"Ten years?"

Although Zuo Weiyue didn't know that the imperial examination in Xiding was held every few years, but according to her previous experience in the magic world examination, ten years, even if she took an exam casually, if she put her heart into it, she would make a difference.

From this point of view, it is indeed reasonable for Wei Shu to be so famous.

"After that, after you accept him, what do you plan to ask him to do, and you haven't been able to pass the exam for ten years, so it shouldn't be of much help to you?"

After asking this question, Zuo Weiyue caught a glimpse of the brother and sister who were still eating big mouths from the corner of their eyes, and always felt that it would not be so simple.

"Of course not. Since you know in the prophecy that accepting him can help me increase my luck, then he must not be a mediocre person, but because of some things, he looks relatively useless now."

After Lou Huai finished speaking, he looked at Zuo Weiyue's red nose, which had been blown by the wind, and brought her in.

At this time, Wei Shu had almost finished eating. After wiping his mouth, he pushed some eggs and meatballs that he specially left behind in front of Wei Xiaoya.

"Ninny, brother is full, you eat these too, brother go talk to the young master over there, you don't have to worry."

Wei Xiaoya wanted to say no, but Wei Shu had already got up, so she could only continue to eat hard.

At this moment, Lou Huai and Zuo Weiyue sat on the right side of a screen in the private room, while boiling tea, while roasting on the charcoal stove in the room.

Hearing the footsteps from the other side of the screen, he seemed to have guessed something, put the boiled tea on the table, and said softly, "Have you finished?"

Wei Shu, who was bookish but with a slightly hunched back, came around from behind the screen, but did not sit down, but still looked at Lou Huai with an embarrassed expression.

"I've finished my meal, can you tell now, how did you recognize me when I was masked?"

Lou Huai picked up the teapot and poured it into the teacup to [-]% full, and blew on the hot air floating on it: "One is to see that you are taking your sickly sister with you, and the other is to see that your right thumb and middle finger are thick Cocoons, generally only scholars who use pens all year round will leave such a trace."

The young man raised his phoenix eyes, his eyes passed through the white water vapor, and fell directly on the cocoon on Wei Shu's right hand.

"As for scholars who can keep such thick calluses, they can usually achieve a little success no matter what they do, and they won't be like you today, still stealing things."

Wei Shu's hands clenched tightly when he heard Lou Huai say the word "stealing", and his complexion was too pale.

He didn't give any explanation, the inferiority complex all over his body was even worse than before, he lowered his head and hid half of his face under the dark color, and said in a hoarse voice: "So, I am such a mediocre and low-quality person, how can you still say that I need a My ingenuity?"

Lou Huai didn't reply to him first, but talked about Wei Shu's recent two failed imperial examinations.

"If I remember well, you have been in the position of scholar for a long time. Have you thought about why you, who got the first grade in the case back then, failed even a single exam?"

Wei Shu was silent, the temperament around him was still sluggish, and he laughed at himself: "It could be because of something, it must be my own talent."

"No." Lou Huai interrupted him, and took out a dated exam paper from his cuff, and handed it to him, "Look at this."

　Don't learn from the act of stealing things here. The character is out of helplessness, but he didn't succeed.
