Chapter 241: My face is about to burst with laughter
"So, the young master doesn't want us anymore? I thought that the shadow took a fancy to us, so the young master gave us away."
Sweet potato thought for a while and said.
The other women looked at each other and nodded, meaning that they thought so too.
"..."
Mei Chengan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What are you thinking? What's a shadow? How can I give you guys to him? You are just imagining things.
He did like you guys, but I rejected him sternly. He asked me for my closest person right away. Don’t you think he is so shameless?
But..."
Mei Cheng'an paused here, thinking about what to say.
The women on the opposite side breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, Green Ant said.
"As long as the young master doesn't want us anymore, we are willing to listen to all of his instructions. We will do whatever he tells us to do, so you don't have to worry, just tell me directly."
The other three also nodded.
"..."
Looking at the four people in front of him with satisfaction, Mei Cheng'an felt that they were really thoughtful, so he just got straight to the point.
"Well, I won't waste my time. The first thing I will do is get all four of you into the Overwatch Council.
Of course, at present you are just listed under my name and I won’t assign you any specific tasks.
Apart from having an additional identity and receiving an extra salary, everything else remains the same as before.
The second thing, Bluebird and Green Ant, your mission is to worship Shadow as your master and learn as much as you can from his skills.
You don't have to worry about anything in the academy for the time being. After you become his disciple, Yingzi will arrange training for you. Just follow his arrangements for the details.
Hey, but you two should still take care of Ziyi in the morning as usual, don’t be lazy, this matter cannot be sloppy. "
The girls had no objection to the first thing.
The second thing.
Green Ant knew that the young master was using this method to remind them that the courtyard was still their home, so she smiled happily.
"I understand, Master."
Bluebird thought for a moment and asked.
"If I'm not here, how will the young master go about his daily travels?"
Mei Chengan had already thought about it.
"Then we still have Wang Qinian. Giving him so much money just to report the news is too easy for him. We must let him do more!"
The bluebird smiled, nodded and said no more.
Mei Cheng'an looked at her and Green Ant and said.
"If both of you have no objection, I will notify Shadow tomorrow."
The two girls looked at each other and nodded in unison.
"Listen to the master."
Mei Chengan hummed.
"Well, there's nothing else to do. It's so late, you guys should go down and get some rest."
"Yes, Master."
After they all responded, the women stood up one after another, and everyone except Hongshu left.
"Master, there's still water boiling on the stove. It should be almost done. Let me help you wash up."
Mei Cheng'an looked at her and smiled.
"You've used up so much energy today, aren't you tired?"
Sweet potato nodded and shook his head.
"Of course I am a little tired, but I can't let this delay my service to the young master. The young master's affairs always come first. My little tiredness is nothing. It won't delay me to rest later."
Mei Cheng'an didn't say anything more after hearing that. He told her to finish washing early and go to rest. After thinking about it, he stood up.
"It has to be my sweet potatoes, so what are you waiting for? Let's go."
……
Early the next morning.
Mei Chengan had just gotten up and was doing morning exercises in the yard when the shadow came.
Mei Cheng'an glanced at him for a moment and did not stop moving.
"You came really early. Have you eaten?"
Shadow crossed his arms and looked around, but didn't see his beloved disciple.
"Not hungry."
"Stop looking and practice together."
The shadow said nothing, and directly copied Mei Chengan's movements from two meters away, and then started fighting in an instant according to the moves.
"how's it going?"
Mei Chengan froze in a motion of a white crane spreading its wings and replied while transitioning to the next move.
"I communicated with them last night. Is there any ceremony required to become their disciple?"
Shadow said in a muffled voice.
"What kind of ceremony is needed? I don't like those empty ones. Just calling me teacher is considered as paying homage to me."
Mei Cheng'an nodded, it was also good to be simple and rough.
"Okay, then you can take them away after they finish breakfast.
Let me make it clear first, when you teach your beloved disciple, you must be careful to proceed step by step. If anything happens to him, I will never forgive you."
Shadow was in a good mood.
"Stop talking nonsense. How can I teach my beloved disciple to speak in your language? I know what I am doing."
"..."
Mei Chengan rolled his eyes.
"You better be!"
……
After breakfast, Mei Cheng'an changed into his official uniform and got on a carriage to go to the Honglu Temple. The carriage driver was replaced by Wang Qinian instead of Qingniao.
Bluebird and Green Ant followed Shadow without eating breakfast. After all, Shadow was wearing a black robe and a mask and it was inconvenient for him to eat breakfast, so they were too embarrassed to eat.
Mei Cheng'an didn't care about that. It was okay if they didn't eat at home. He would just let Yingzi pay for the food for them on the way, after all, he was his beloved disciple.
Yingzi wasn't short of money, so he accepted the offer without a care in the world, and felt quite embarrassed for what he had done to the two girls.
After Qingniao left, he went to see Wang Qinian and told him all of Mei Chengan's intentions.
Wang Qinian naturally had no objection. Driving was much easier than sorting documents in the file library, and he had more free time.
So he quickly took off his official uniform of the Supervisory Council, changed into casual clothes, and rushed to Mei Mansion early to wait for orders.
After getting off the carriage in front of the Honglu Temple, Mei Cheng'an turned around and looked at Wang Qinian.
"Okay, Lao Wang, if nothing unexpected happens, I will stay in the Honglu Temple for the whole day, and there is no need for a car in the meantime. You should go to the Supervisory Office to take up your duties. Just come and pick me up before the evening hour."
Wang Qinian's face immediately wrinkled when he heard this.
"No way, Master. I will be your full-time driver from now on. Why do I have to go to the Overwatch Council?"
Mei Chengan laughed.
“That was indeed the case in the past. At that time, I only stayed in the Honglu Temple for half a day, so I naturally wouldn’t let you bother.
But now I have to stay for a whole day. It would be very boring if you do nothing during such a long time.
It would be better to stay in the Supervisory Office. Even if you don’t work, you can just chat with people.
Oh yes, I heard that the bodies of those traitors yesterday have not been cleaned up yet.
If you find some unexpected money from someone while collecting corpses, then...tsk tsk, it's free."
Wang Qinian rolled his eyes when he heard this. Yes, he also got a piece of jade yesterday, but it was just accidentally revealed. After reading it carefully...
Hehe, I’m rich!
After thinking about it, Wang Qinian immediately put away his bitter expression and spoke seriously.
"I was just joking with you, young master. The Supervisory Office is now seriously injured and needs more people. How can we back down? Young master, please go in quickly. I will rush to the Supervisory Office right away!"
"..."
When it comes to changing faces, it has to be you, Lao Wang!
Mei Cheng'an gave Wang Qinian a thumbs up and turned to walk towards the Honglu Temple.
For the rest of the day, Mei Cheng'an no longer studied any maps or documents, as he had already studied them thoroughly.
He spent the entire day in the meeting room of the Honglu Temple, which will be the negotiation room in two days, discussing negotiation strategies with Xin Qiwu, Wang Sicheng and other participants in the negotiations in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Even lunch was purchased by Xin Qiwu from Yishiju and Meijia Canteen. It was a huge expense for the sake of business.
Although as the victorious country, negotiations do not require too much effort, but communication and discussion of the details that should be paid attention to and simulation exercises are still essential, in order to strive for perfection.
They are serious about negotiation!
Fan Xian was not present for the discussion, so Xin Qiwu did not inform him.
The original words were, "Oh, no need to call him. He won't be able to get a word in even if he comes. Just call him on the day of the negotiation. It's just a formality anyway. The real negotiations will still depend on us."
After hearing this, Mei Chengan felt inexplicably sad.
To be honest, I also want to go through the motions!
……
At the beginning of Youshi.
Mei Cheng'an walked out of the gate of Honglu Temple. Although he had been in meetings for a whole day, he had eaten and drunk well and the atmosphere was relaxed, so he did not feel tired.
Wang Qinian was waiting outside in his carriage on time.
"How was your harvest today, Old Wang?"
Wang Qinian jumped out of the driving seat and went to get the horse stool while laughing.
"We have made some progress, we have made some progress, please get in the car, young master."
Mei Chengan glanced at him with a curled lip corner.
"You've gotten rich, haven't you?"
Wang Qinian smiled with wrinkles on his face and waved his hands repeatedly.
"No no."
As he said this, he raised his right hand and pinched his index finger and thumb.
"It's just hard work money, just a little bit, it's not like I got rich, not at all."
Mei Cheng'an glanced at his gesture and chuckled.
"I don't believe you. A little bit of money can make you laugh like this? If you keep laughing, your face will break."
Wang Qinian was startled when he heard this, and quickly stopped smiling. He reached out and touched his face. As he touched his face, he came to his senses and smiled again, but not as exaggeratedly as before.
"Master, you are scaring me, really not."
"Tsk, forget it!"
Seeing that he refused to say anything, Mei Chengan didn't bother to ask anymore. He rolled his eyes at him and got into the car.
Wang Qinian covered his face and chuckled, put away the horse stool, and drove the carriage straight to Mei Mansion.
"Does the Overwatch Council have any other news today?"
Mei Chengan in the carriage asked casually.
Wang Qinian drove the carriage without looking back.
"No special news. Oh, yes, Zhuang Mohan is back again. He came back last night. He has not left the house since he came back, nor has he seen anyone. He just stayed in the room reading. Master, I feel that Zhuang Mohan is weird. Who do you think he could have met last night?"
Even if I know, I can't tell you.
Mei Chengan rolled his eyes.
"Where should I know where to go? Is there anything else?"
"That's gone."
"Don't cover your face, drive carefully. I'm just joking with you. Your face won't break from laughing. Do you believe such outrageous words?"
The corner of Wang Qinian's mouth twitched, his body stiffened for a moment, and he slowly put his hand down.
God damn, he actually believed it!
Who made Mei Cheng'an a miracle doctor who could cure tuberculosis?
As a miracle doctor, please don’t scare people randomly. Do you have any medical ethics?
Wang Qinian muttered to himself with a resentful expression behind Mei Cheng'an's back.
"You're not cursing me in your heart, are you, Old Wang?"
"..."
