Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

Although the old Taoist priest tacitly agreed to Yi Mu's departure, he did not intend to let Tan Xiu, who helped Yi Mu leave, go easily.

Tell Xiao Hei to call Tan Xiu.

When Tan Xiu arrived in front of the old Taoist priest, he bowed respectfully and then asked, "Master, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The old Taoist priest remained silent, his eyes fixed on Tan Xiu.

Tan Xiu: “…”

Sure enough, it was discovered.

There is nothing on this island that Master doesn't know.

Tan Xiu took the initiative to kneel down, bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, Master, I was wrong."

The old Taoist priest asked solemnly: "What's wrong?"

Tan Xiu answered without hesitation: "My mistake was that I shouldn't have helped my junior brother escape."

Then he quickly added: "I will go get him back now, please rest assured, Master."

As he said this, he was about to stand up.

Before he could straighten his legs, the old Taoist suddenly said coldly: "Did I ask you to get up?"

Hearing this, Tan Xiu's legs, which had just been straightened, immediately bent again and he knelt on the ground again.

His back was straight and his head was lowered, like a child being scolded.

"I won't care about Yi Mu's affairs anymore, and you don't have to care about it."

Tan Xiu still lowered his head: "Yes, Master."

The old Taoist priest looked at Tan Xiu in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a sense of helplessness and emotion.

His expression gradually eased, he sighed deeply, and then asked softly: "Are you blaming me for being partial to Yi Mu?"

Upon hearing this, Tan Xiu paused for a moment, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I dare not."

Tan Xiu was an orphan picked up by the old Taoist priest by chance. He became the old Taoist priest's apprentice a few years earlier than Yi Mu.

At that time, Tan Xiu was the only disciple of the old Taoist priest. He held a very important position on the island and was very much loved.

However, everything changed when the old Taoist brought Yi Mu back.

The old Taoist's attention gradually shifted to Yi Mu. Although he did not completely ignore Tan Xiu, his attention to him was obviously much less than before.

Tan Xiu could understand the old Taoist's favoritism. After all, Yi Muxiu had an extremely high talent for martial arts, while he had average talent.

With the same level of training, Tan Xiu only reached the eighth level of martial arts at the age of twenty-five this year, but Yi Mu had already reached the highest level of martial artists, the ninth level, last year.

It was also at that time that the old Taoist priest passed the position of island owner to Yi Mu.

"Don't hide it from me. I know you have resentment in your heart. However, every arrangement I made is the best for you. Even if you resent me, I will not change these decisions. Put away your little thoughts. What is yours will always be yours, and what is not yours, you can't take it away."

The old Taoist priest shook his head silently in his heart.

Neither of his two apprentices can give him peace of mind.

One is too stubborn, the other has too many thoughts.

The old Taoist priest slowly stood up, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked past Tan Xiu.

"The land in the back mountain has been untended since Old Liu passed away. Go there, and don't take a single step out of the mountain until the fruits and vegetables are ripe. This is a punishment for letting Yi Mu go."

Tan Xiu clenched his hands that were hanging by his legs, "Yes, Master."

……

The day before the new students of Imperial Capital University reported for registration, the entire Hua family came to the Imperial Capital, including Happy.

Yi Mu didn't live in the dormitory, he directly bought an apartment near the school.

Originally, Hua Luchuan wanted to buy a set for the two sisters Hua Chaochao and Hua Xi, but they refused.

They all said no, it would be fine for them to live in the dormitory so it would be convenient for them to go to and from get out of class.

So Hua Luchuan gave up the idea of ​​buying a house.

The dormitory arrangement has been released, Hua Chaochao and Hua Xi will share a dormitory.

Of course, this was agreed with Principal Xiao in advance.

When Yi Mu bought the house, he specifically asked Hua Chaochao if she wanted to live with him.

Unfortunately, Hua Chaochao did not agree. She wanted to live in the dormitory with Hua Xi, which resulted in Yi Mu looking at Hua Xi with some resentment in his eyes these two days.
