From Sidekick to Bigshot

Almost immediately, she could see how much the boy admired and worshiped her.

If the girl said that she wanted her to be her Master, Su Xu would be skeptical about that. However, if she said that the boy wanted her to be his Master, Su Xu would easily believe those words.

Ms. Qian explained to Jian Yiling, “Your condition was for me to introduce you to Madam Su Xu. I’m not responsible for whether or not you succeed or fail in getting her to become his Master.”

Ms. Qian looked at the young girl in front of her. When she saw the serious expression on her face, she felt quite bad.

Then, she turned her head to look at Su Xu. She wondered what Su Xu was thinking.

Based on what she knew, Su Xu hadn’t accepted any students for so many years. Due to this reason, it was unlikely that she would just accept a random boy as her student.

However, there was nothing more that Ms. Qian could do. She couldn’t force Su Xu to take on a student.

Su Xu walked up to Jian Yujie and began to ask him some questions.

At first, she asked him when he started to learn magic. She asked him why he liked magic in the first place.

Then, she asked him some questions related to magic.

Finally, she asked him to perform a few of the tricks he knew how to do.

After the exchange, Su Xu was pleasantly surprised.

She came here today because she owed a favor to Ms. Qian’s father. Since he asked her for this favor, she couldn’t refuse his request.

As for accepting students, she hadn’t really thought about it before she came here today.

Previously, she had searched for so many years without finding a suitable candidate to become her student. It was unlikely that she would meet one by coincidence.

However, she was pleasantly surprised by the fact that she actually liked the person in front of her.

She liked the pure passion that he had for magic. She liked the way that he took magic seriously.

These were the two things that she valued the most. To her, these two points were more important than talent.

Of course, this young man in front of her was also very talented. If he was a piece of rock, after polishing him up, in the future, he would definitely be a very precious object.

Su Xu said to Jian Yujie: “Well, let’s stop here for today. However, let’s exchange contact details. I’ll contact you later so we can get to know each other better.”

Su Xu didn’t directly agree to accept Jian Yujie as her student.

However, such an action had already surprised Ms. Qian.

This already meant that Su Xu’s opinion of the young man in front of her was quite good. Since they exchanged contact details, this meant that there was still a chance for him to become Su Xu’s student.

In all these years, there were not many people who had this honor.

“Yes! Yes! Thank you Teacher Su Xu! Thank you!” Jian Yujie cried out in joy. He was incredibly happy.

He turned around and held Jian Yiling’s hand. Then, he started jumping up and down like a three-year-old child.

Jian Yujie’s smile was contagious. A smile gradually appeared on Jian Yilig’s face as well.

Her eyes arched and her smile was sweet and soft.

Jian Yiling, Jian Yujie, Ms. Qian, and Su Xu shared a meal in the compartment.

After that, they all left separately.

Ms. Qian asked the two of them: “Where are you guys going? Do you want me to ask someone to send you back home?”

“Thank you, Ms. Qian.” Jian Yujie said as he declined her kindness, “We were brought here by our family’s chauffeur. He will take us back.”

“Okay then. Take care on your way home.”

Then, Ms. Qian and Su Xu watched Jian Yujie and Jian Yiling leave.

Mo Shiyun arrived one moment after Jian Yiling left.

Ms. Qian had asked her to come over.

Ms. Qian estimated that their meal with ‘Mr. Fu’ was about to be over. And thus, she sent a message to Mo Shiyun to ask her to come over. She wanted to buy some clothes for Mo Shiyun. However, she had messaged Mo Shiyun that she merely wanted company whilst shopping.
