At that mont, the middle-aged man who spoke first stood up.
“I think I’m probably the one who’s leaving! I understand. I’ll leave now!” Li Xiaoran looked at this man, but didn’t speak.
Just as the man reached the door, Zi Cheng walked out and stopped him.
“It’s not you. Go back and sit down!”
When the man heard Zi Cheng’s words, his eyes were filled with surprise. Then, he turned to look at Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran nodded with a smile and affird Zi Cheng’s words.
The middle-aged man’s eyes turned red, then moistened as he returned to his seat.
Now, the others were anxious.
Because they thought that the person who would leave was this middle-aged man, but now that they were sure that it wasn’t him, who could it be?
In the end, Li Xiaoran asked soone to bring a few bamboo pieces over. Then, she whispered a few words to Zi Zheng and sent the bamboo pieces to the remaining four people.
“After you get the bamboo piece, the four of you can leave! Go there and wait according to the instructions on the bamboo piece later!”
The four of them looked at the bamboo pieces in their hands, then left.
After five minutes, Li Xiaoran asked Zi Zheng to bring the middle-aged man and the female bookkeeper to another place, then pick up the remaining three people and settle them down.
As for Li Xiaoran, Shu Ruyue, and Zi Cheng, they went to the sliced noodles and waited for the person who was eliminated.
This person was none other than the young man who said that he had been suppressed by his ntor.
When the young man saw Li Xiaoran, he finally asked his question.
“Why ? I’m very capable!” the young man asked anxiously. Li Xiaoran didn’t answer him. Instead, she looked at Li Xiaoqing.
“Xiao Qing, serve the bowl of noodles!”
Xiao Qing agreed and served the sliced noodles.
Li Xiaoran pointed at the bowl of hot knife-cut noodles in front of her and said with a smile, “You haven’t eaten yet, right?! Hurry up and sit down. You can only have the energy to listen to after you’re full!”
When the young man heard this, he was stunned.
At this mont, he felt a lump in his throat. He sat down, then picked up his chopsticks and ate the noodles.
However, as he ate, tears fell.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran took out a white handkerchief and handed it over.
“If your tears fall into your food, it won’t be good for your health! If your elders were here and saw this, they would teach you a lesson!”
More tears appeared in the man’s eyes, but this ti, he didn’t let them fall into the bowl. Instead, he tilted his head and wiped his tears with his sleeve.
He didn’t use the handkerchief Li Xiaoran gave him. Instead, he pushed it back silently.
“That’s not good! If your handkerchief falls into the hands of others, it will cause you trouble!” The young man explained as he wiped his tears.
When Li Xiaoran heard his words, she laughed even more happily. “Then stop crying! After you finish your noodles, I’ll tell you about your future!”
“How can I have a future?” The young man looked at Li Xiaoran, as if he was asking for confirmation!
Li Xiaoran nodded and said, “Of course you do. You’re still young, so your life is still ahead of you!”
When the young man heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he nodded and picked up his chopsticks to eat in big mouthfuls.
Soon, the bowl of noodles was finished, even the soup.
After one’s stomach was full, one would feel at ease and satisfied.
“I know you’re very good at accounting. The reason I don’t need you is because I want you to go back and settle your own matters first! You learned how to account from your ntor, but you’re leaving just like that? What if your ntor finds your family? What will your family suffer? Think about it carefully. After you acknowledged him as your ntor, did you press your handprint on anything?” Li Xiaoran reminded.
When the young man heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he recalled carefully and nodded. “Handprint? Yes, when I just beca my ntor’s disciple, my ntor asked us to sign sothing with my handprint on it!”
“That’s right. Can you read?” Li Xiaoran thought for a mont before asking again.
The young man nodded and said, “I can recognize most words. As bookkeepers, if we can’t read, we might get fooled!”
Li Xiaoran reminded, “That’s good! If I were you, I suggest you go back and take a closer look at what you stamped on to see what’s written on it! If you beco soone else’s bookkeeper without your ntor’s permission, perhaps you ‘Il nave to compensate your ntor.”
The young man was a smart person. When he heard Li Xiaoran’s words, his expression changed.
Because he rembered sothing.
Not long after he beca his ntor’s disciple, he saw a man kneeling on the ground and begging his ntor to let him off.
In the end, his ntor only said, “I’ve always been on guard against you guys in case you guys betrayed ! That’s why I kept this trick up my sleeve! As expected, you guys beca too big for your britches! Now, it’s too late to regret it. Just wait for retribution! ”
Curious, he asked about it, but his ntor only said,
“Just learn from and do whatever I ask you to do!”
At that ti, he naively thought that that person had done sothing to let his ntor down. Now, it seed that might not be the case.
Thinking of what he had experienced over the years, the young man imdiately understood sothing.
“Thank you for your guidance, Madam. I think I understand! However, Madam, please teach ! If such a request is really written in the thing I pressed my fingerprint on, what should I do?”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she didn’t give him a specific solution.
“Actually, you know what to do! Everything has to be resolved from the root!” When the young man heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he pondered over it.
After a while, the young man stood up and bowed to Li Xiaoran three tis.
“Thank you for your guidance, Madam! I, Zhong Xiaoping, can’t thank you enough! After I settle my matters, I wonder if I can still be the bookkeeper?”
Li Xiaoran didn’t give him an answer. She only said,
“As long as we’re fated!”
Zhong Xiaoping left. He already knew what he wanted to do.
After leaving Hele Village’s official road, Zhong Xiaoping rushed back to White Foothill City.
However, he didn’t go ho or to his ntor’s place. Instead, he secretly found soone he was familiar with to ask about the disciples his ntor had taken in previously..
