Chapter 112 Seek medical advice
The divine healer was a special person to his master, but he dared not say just how special she was.
As Murong Xun was leaving, he paused briefly beside Xue Ruanruan, giving her a meaningful look with his dark, deep eyes that seemed to see through everything.
Without saying a word, he strode away, his brocade robe swaying in the wind, brushing against her face, as if she didn't notice.
Xue Ruanruan was startled; he realized that she had used him to bully others with her power.
However, since he didn't expose it in public and even cooperated with me to put pressure on the Left Prime Minister, does that mean he agreed to my actions?
Xue Ruanruan was in a state of turmoil and had no mind to think about anything else. Only after the Left Prime Minister and the other students' parents had all left did she bid farewell to the headmaster and teachers.
"Headmaster, Master, I'm sorry to have troubled you all today. These gifts are just a small token of my appreciation. Please accept them."
The maidservant, with great foresight, placed the gift box that Xue Ruanruan had carefully prepared on the table.
“Miss Xue, you’re too kind. The academy also bears responsibility for what happened to Xue Li. We appreciate your kindness, but please take the gift back. We absolutely cannot accept this.”
Looking at the exquisitely packaged gift box, the headmaster felt deeply ashamed.
If a student is bullied at the academy and the headmaster is unable to seek justice for them, how can he have the face to accept gifts from others?
He knew in his heart that if the regent hadn't appeared in time, things probably wouldn't have been resolved so easily.
"Headmaster, you must accept this. Consider it a gift. My grandmother specifically instructed me to give it; it is a token of the General's family's goodwill."
Xue Ruanruan knew that her younger brother would be studying at the academy for several more years, and for the sake of his future, she had to give these gifts today.
"Then please convey my gratitude to the old lady."
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Headmaster Ren had no choice but to accept. He planned to go back and have his wife prepare a large gift to return to the General's Mansion.
Today's events have created a grudge with the Left Prime Minister, and the future is uncertain; we can only take it one step at a time.
Xue Li's teachers also thanked Xue Ruanruan. They weren't after these things, but rather it was the first time they had been so valued by a student's parent, which made them feel very grateful.
The students of Luming Academy all came from wealthy and noble families, and their parents did not take them, who were teachers without official positions, seriously.
"Headmaster, the teachers have been busy all day and haven't had a meal yet. I just happened to bring some side dishes from my residence. Please try them."
"So Miss Xue brought food with her. No wonder it smells so tempting. It must taste delicious. I won't stand on ceremony."
Compared to other gifts of gratitude, Headmaster Ren was more interested in the food. He hadn't had a drop of water since breakfast that morning, so he was inevitably quite hungry.
In addition, the food that Miss Xue brought was indeed tempting, with a fragrance I had never smelled before, and my stomach was rumbling with hunger.
"We'll take advantage of this opportunity and enjoy a meal at the Zhenguo General's residence. Xue Li is our student, and I'm willing to impart all my knowledge to him. You don't need to be so polite in the future."
Master Huang was not only picky about his tastes, but also had very strict requirements for his students. Every student he taught was afraid of him. Only Xue Li was not afraid of him and would take the initiative to discuss academic matters with him.
Over time, even the usually stern-faced Master Huang couldn't resist Xue Li's intelligence and eagerness to learn, and his attitude towards him became kind and approachable.
Wang Yuchen and several other students who were not academically outstanding became even more jealous of Xue Li, which is why they were always causing him trouble.
However, Xue Li was also very patient. He didn't tell anyone about being bullied by his classmates. If Xue Ruanruan hadn't insisted on coming to the academy to seek justice for him, probably no one would have known that the student with excellent grades in the eyes of the teachers was being bullied by bad students.
No teacher dislikes a smart, studious, and academically excellent student. The reason why everyone is willing to make enemies of the Left Prime Minister to stand on the side of the General of the State is related to their genuine affection for Xue Li.
"The teachers are dedicated to teaching Li'er, and the manor can afford to provide this meal. Headmaster and teachers, please try it first."
Xue Ruanruan had come prepared, with plenty of bowls and chopsticks, and each lady was given a set.
The maid carefully opened the food box, and a rich aroma of rice wafted out and quickly filled the air.
Ren Shanzhang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He already had an extreme love for food, and it was hard to resist the temptation when he saw the mouthwatering food in front of him.
Even Master Huang, who doesn't care much for food, couldn't help but tighten his grip on his chopsticks and almost couldn't resist reaching out to pick up some food.
