Peerless Allure: Nine Series Summoner

Chapter 207
"Who said these things are useless? I bought them for Xiao Zheng. If he behaves well in the future, then I will reward him for playing."

Xiao Xu suddenly felt speechless.In the Sacred Heart Academy, the rewards given by other tutors to direct students are either potions and pills, or talismans and spiritual tools, and the worst is a century-old medicinal herb.

Fortunately, Ling Lan just used the things she bought from the stalls outside to fool her.

Xiao Xu turned his head, wanting to say a few words to Ling Lan to Zheng Bowen.But as soon as he turned around, he saw the emotion written all over Zheng Bowen's face.

Obviously Zheng Bowen didn't speak, but Xiao Xu felt that he was choked.He simply turned his head away without looking sideways, completely ignoring the existence of Ling Lan and Zheng Bowen.

——One of the teacher and the student is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer, neither of which can be guessed by ordinary people.

Besides, Zheng Bowen, he was really moved by Ling Lan's actions.In his memory, there had never been an irrelevant person who cared so much for him.

——Although Teacher Dijue is always lazy and doesn't like to talk, "he" really pays attention to himself, a direct student.

In the future, he will definitely work hard, work harder, and work harder, so as not to embarrass his mentor.He wants to make people in Sacred Heart Academy never dare to despise their mentors again!

……

Today is a good weather for traveling, shopping and eating.

Xiao Xu came to look for Ling Lan again like a dot, and went down the mountain with him.But when Zheng Bo heard it, there was some hesitation in his eyes.

"Teacher, the students still have some homework to do, and the students want to stay on the mountain to do their homework." Zheng Bowen glanced at Ling Lan, then quickly lowered his head.

"Oh, really?"

Ling Lan didn't say yes or no, she just asked lightly.

There was a bit of sharpness hidden in her lazy eyes.When her eyes swept over Zheng Bowen lightly, it made him feel restless like a thorn in his back.

"I'll ask you again, are you going or not?"

"...Students, students are willing to go down the mountain with the instructor." Zheng Bowen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and heaved a sigh of relief like the rest of his life.

At first he lied that he had homework to do, and he didn't want to go down the mountain with Ling Lan, because he had a heart for Ling Lan's sake.

People in the academy, whether they are tutors or students, have many complaints about Ling Lan.

They said that the college recruited a gangster who only knows how to eat, drink, have fun, and is ignorant. A person who was born as a mercenary, and at a young age, what real skills can he have?

Just look at the rags that "he" gave to his students—if he wasn't so poor and worthless that he couldn't even get a hundred-year-old medicinal herb, why would he casually do something perfunctory?
Those students who originally envied Zheng Bowen's ability to go down the mountain often, all the envy in their hearts disappeared without a trace when they learned that Dijue gave the stuff they bought from a small stall to the direct students as prizes.

They began to rejoice, even a little gloating.

——Although their mentor will not take them down the mountain, the things they give away are good things that are hard to buy with real money.

That terrestrial mentor is really as poor as "his" students.

But Zheng Bowen didn't think so.In his mind, Di Jue is a person with great wisdom and true ability, and the reason why he doesn't show off the mountains and dews is just that "he" doesn't want to.

But he couldn't say that.He knew that he was a soft-spoken person, and talking too much might backfire, so he could only keep silent at this time.

But Zheng Boxen thought of a way: if he can succeed in his studies and become the best among the students of the same year, wouldn't the rumors about the Earth Absolute mentor be self-defeating?
He wanted to spend all his time on cultivation, so he said that he didn't want to go down the mountain.

Although Ling Lan didn't fully understand the reason, she could guess the general idea.

It's just that she didn't care about reputation before, and it's even less likely that she will care about it in the future.

She hoped that Zheng Bowen, as her student, would have the same awareness.

……

So we went down the mountain today, and it was still a trip of three.

Ling Lan bought a bunch of things on the street, food and play, but they didn't put them in the storage bag, but told Zheng Bowen to carry them all the way.

No matter how dull Zheng Bowen was, he knew that his mentor was angry with him.

He figured it out, and he could no longer make his own decisions in the future.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and as usual, the three of them had lunch at a restaurant Xiao Xu had found.

This restaurant opened on the main street and is called Jinyu Mantang.It was time for dinner, and the lobby of the restaurant was crowded with people.

According to Xiao Xu, this golden and jade mansion is one of the most famous restaurants in Yangping City. Many dignitaries in Yangping City like to eat here.

Things that rich people like should not be too bad.

Ling Lan and the others didn't make an appointment, and they arrived just in time for lunch, and no matter whether it was the casual seats or the private rooms, they were all fully booked.

The three sat on the benches under the eaves of the restaurant, and waited for more than half an hour before they got three vacant seats.

Xiao Xu was rich and powerful, so he didn't dare to take the menu after he was seated, so he directly ordered the waiter in the shop: "Serve one of your signature dishes here! Hurry up!"

"Okay! Wait a moment, guest officer." The waiter in the shop responded loudly, turned around and went to work.

This time, they didn't have to wait too long, and within a quarter of an hour, six dishes and one soup were brought to the table by the staff.

It has been a long time since Xiao Xu wanted to come here to taste the delicacies. When the dishes were served, he didn't show courtesy to Ling Lan, so he took a bite with his chopsticks first.

But this time, Ling Lan didn't see the satisfaction of getting what he wanted from his face.

Sure enough, the next second, Xiao Xu opened his eyes.He frowned, and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up another dish of braised pork.

Then Sixi meatballs, lion head, emerald and white jade soup... Xiao Xu tasted one dish after another. In the end, his expression was calm and his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Obviously, he no longer had any hope for this meal.

There is no other reason. The texture and taste of these dishes are really mediocre, which makes Xiao Xu feel that it is hard to live up to the reputation of Jinyu Mantang.

As for Ling Lan and Zheng Bowen, they don't have any requirements for food, and they are not as picky as Xiao Xu. As long as it is not difficult to swallow, then everything is fine.

Xiao Xu didn't take a few bites of the last dish on the table.Seeing that Ling Lan and Zheng Bowen had almost eaten, he asked the waiter to pay the bill.

"Guest officer, you have a total of 350 gold coins at this table." The waiter in the shop smiled all over his face, as if meeting the God of Wealth.

Ling Lan thought she had heard wrong, and what they ate was not gold. "How much did you say?"
