Flavor Building, second floor, quiet and elegant room.

Gu Huaiyi was wearing a green gown, with glossy black hair, and a clear and beautiful face. He sat cross-legged on the reed mat, with his head slightly lowered, holding a pot of tea with his thin and slender fingers, pouring the tea in a flowing manner, with a noble and elegant air in his movements.

The sunlight outside the window shone diffusely on his face, showing a sickly paleness, but his narrow, cold eyes were tinged with a warm light.

He poured two cups of tea and placed one of them on the other side with his hands: "Brother, please have some tea."

"If you have nothing to show your courtesy, you are either committing adultery or stealing." Dean Lin raised his hand and pushed the tea aside. His face was majestic and solemn. His sharp eyes looked at the calm and indifferent Gu Huaizhi, and he snorted softly from his nose: " Are you looking for me this time to get your brother into Xihe Academy?"

He had heard that Gu Jingyun had been kicked out and was not allowed to study in private school, so he had been waiting for Gu Huai to come to him early in the morning to beg him.

Thinking of this, Dean Lin put on a high air.

There was a faint smile on Gu Huaizhi's lips: "Senior brother, it's hard to refuse such kindness. I can't refuse. I will send Jingyun to Xihe Academy tomorrow."

Dean Lin's eyes widened: "Didn't you say you won't use the back door?"

"One thing can be one thing, two things, not three things. Senior brother, I have already rejected him once. If I reject him again this time, it will inevitably hurt the feelings of my fellow brothers." Gu Huaizhi said in a gentle tone, smiled softly, and asked Lin again. The dean poured a cup of tea: "Follow the rules and he will pass the exam."

Dean Lin choked with anger and stared at Gu Huaizhi fiercely.

I haven’t seen you in a year, and you are even more shameless than before!

He said angrily: "I didn't invite Gu Jingyun to Xihe Academy today!"

"It's me who requested it, senior brother."

"..."

Seeing how direct he was, Dean Lin suspected that he had heard wrongly and couldn't help but glance at Gu Huaizhi.

Gu Huaizhi covered his mouth with a coarse cloth handkerchief and coughed several times. His thin shoulders trembled and his face became paler.

Dean Lin sighed: "How is your health? No cure has been found?"

Gu Huaizhi's eyes were calm and he shook his head slightly.

"Today, the teacher fainted on the street and was rescued by a girl. Doctor Zhou said that the teacher could not have been saved, but fortunately the girl had excellent medical skills. Another day, Doctor Zhou asked her about her identity and asked her to treat you." Dean Lin mentioned the old man and told Gu Huaizhi: "I'm going to the county town tomorrow. You bring Jingyun to the academy the day after tomorrow."

"Okay." Gu Huaizhi didn't care about the treatment.

There is no cure for his poison, he can only live longer.

Dean Lin took a sip of tea and said doubtfully: "You were sick at first. You left Taohua Village for three years and went to see a famous doctor for treatment. You obviously got better. You took the provincial examination and got sick again. Then you left for another year and the condition disappeared. Okay, but the disease is getting worse. Didn’t you find the doctor?”

Gu Huaizhi's hand holding the tea paused slightly and said with a smile, "He can't be cured."

Dean Lin said it was a pity.

After lunch, the two senior brothers walked out of the restaurant together. Dean Lin stood beside the carriage and asked, "Are you going to visit the teacher?"

"Ahem..." Gu Huaizhi coughed a few times and looked helpless, "No, he will get even worse when he sees me."

Dean Lin thought of the grievances between master and apprentice, both of them were stubborn.

He didn't force it: "I'll take you back."

"No, I have something else to do." Gu Huaizhi declined politely.

Dean Lin was not polite, got into the carriage and left.

Gu Huaizhi watched the carriage go away, turned around and saw Su Wan leaning against the wall, arms folded, staring at him intently.
