Sun Mo circled around the lake but didn't find Bai Fu. Hence, he went to the library.
"Teacher, Bai Fu is up there!"
Lu Zhiruo, who was in charge of monitoring the library, was sitting on the stairs. When she saw Sun Mo, she immediately got up.
"Mn!"
Sun Mo walked to the front of the metal gate and glanced at the rooftop through the ventilation window.
He didn't see anyone!
Sun Mo didn't mind and directly pushed open the door.
Even though he was already very light, the creaking sounds were still somewhat ear-piercing in the silent night sky.
The lucky mascot was about to follow him in but was pulled back by Li Ziqi.
"What are you doing?"
Li Ziqi didn't understand.
"I'm helping. What if Teacher is at a disadvantage?"
Lu Zhiruo said as a matter of course. "I heard that literary girls are all abnormal in their brains. If she hits Teacher, he definitely won't retaliate. At that time, it would be our turn to appear."
Pak!
Li Ziqi knocked Lu Zhiruo's head.
"Don't add to the mess!"
The little sunny egg was helpless. "Put away your delusions. Moreover, even if that Bai Fu is really difficult to deal with, this is Teacher's battlefield!"
Sun Mo closed the door in passing. He had just taken two steps when a voice that was a thousand miles away rang in his ears.
"Please leave!"
This voice was like ten-thousand-year-old ice, containing a chill that could freeze people.
"A bosom friend in the sea is like a neighbor in the horizon!"
Sun Mo's lips twitched. "We are both people under the moon, why do you want me to leave? Don't you feel that you are so unyielding that even the moonlight has lost its warmth? "
Given Sun Mo's hearing, he could naturally hear that the breathing sound coming from the east had disappeared.
Clearly, the other party was holding her breath.
"As expected of a literary girl. She should be carefully appreciating the two lines of my poem, right?"
Sun Mo silently pondered.
"The moon is the symbol of loneliness. Only one person can understand its charm. If there are many people around, why don't we go to the night stalls and order a few dishes?"
Bai Fu explained.
Sun Mo wanted to say that he didn't mind having a drink together, but sadly, Bai Fu clearly didn't have this intention.
"As the saying goes, first come first serve. If you wish to admire the moon, you can come earlier next time."
Bai Fu paused for a moment before continuing, "But this time around, as long as you can add on that poem, I will let you have this rooftop."
"These two lines of Teacher's poem are so poetic!"
Lu Zhiruo chewed and felt a fragrance in her mouth.
"Shh!"
The little sunny egg indicated for the papaya girl to stop talking.
"This poem is a little sad. I don't miss it!"
Sun Mo rejected and took a few more steps forward. After that, he saw the woman sitting at the edge of the rooftop.
She wasn't dressed in the chessboard-style teacher's uniform of the Black-White College; rather, she was dressed in a snow-white dress. The gentle breeze was like a mischievous child, lifting up her dress and revealing a pair of pure-white feet.
"This woman doesn't wear socks?"
Sun Mo was convinced.
This was the Nine Regions, just like in ancient times. Young ladies of respectable families paid particular attention to not showing their teeth when smiling, and there was a difference between men and women. Not to mention showing their feet, even if someone saw the embroidered shoes hidden under their skirt, they might be criticized as not abiding by the virtue of women.
"Rude, what are you looking at?"
Bai Fu berated.
Honestly speaking, Sun Mo had never been rebuked by a woman like this before and felt a little awkward. He had wanted to leave, but when he thought of Bai Fu's fame, he decided to brace himself and continue digging.
It was impossible for him to explain. Hence, he could only recite the poem.
Hence, Sun Mo recited the poem. However, when he reached the part where his body was as swift as a duck, fleeting like a god, treading on the waves with subtle steps, and covering his socks with dust, Sun Mo stopped.
Bai Fu didn't continue scolding. After waiting for a while and seeing that Sun Mo didn't move, she urged, "What's below?"
"There's nothing below!"
Sun Mo chuckled.
"You..."
Bai Fu stood up.
Finally, Sun Mo could see her face.
After that, he felt a little disappointed.
If it was a score out of 10, he could give her a score of 7.
Her looks could be considered above average, and many men would be willing to bootlick her. However, to Sun Mo, it wasn't enough.
Bai Fu's looks couldn't be compared to the beautiful An Xinhui, the quiet and elegant Mei Ziyu, and the exotic Murong Mingyue.
She couldn't even be compared to the tomboyish Gu Xiuxun. She didn't even need her face. Just her figure alone was enough to crush Bai Fu.
"Wait a minute, why should I be disappointed? I'm here to headhunt teachers, not for a blind date. "
Sun Mo quickly adjusted his state of mind.
Bai Fu no longer spoke and walked toward the metal door. Clearly, she wanted to leave this place.
"My literary attainments aren't good and I've only memorized a few sour poems. But you, you seem to be very impressive. Why don't you recite a few poems for me to broaden my horizons?"
Sun Mo struck up a conversation.
"..."
Li Ziqi covered her eyes, unable to bear to look.
(Given your conversational skills, if it wasn't for your handsome face, you wouldn't even be able to live off a woman.)
"What's your motive?"
Bai Fu counter-asked.
"Just a chance encounter while admiring the moon. Since we're on the same path, can't we chat a little?"
Sun Mo felt a headache.
"Are you treating me like a fool again?"
Bai Fu's thin lips curled slightly, but it was filled with mockery.
"Alright, my name is Sun Mo, and I'm from the Central Province Academy. I wish to invite you to be a teacher in our school."
Sun Mo couldn't be bothered to act.
"You are Sun Mo?"
Bai Fu was astonished.
Although she was a scholarly girl and didn't care about the outside world, the waves Sun Mo had stirred up were too great. This was especially so after he helped Zhang Chang ascend to a secondary saint. This news had already spread through the entire Liao Capital.
"That's me!"
Sun Mo clasped his fists.
"Then do you know my identity?"
Bai Fu didn't wait for Sun Mo to speak and directly introduced herself. "I'm the granddaughter of the previous headmaster. Do you think I'll leave with you?"
The Black-White Academy wasn't like the Central Province Academy, which was An Xinhui's family property. It was shared by seven clans, and the Bai Clan was one of them.
The most important thing was that the Bai Clan had very few members. As the only successor, Bai Fu had the right to speak when it came to some of the decisions of the Black-White Academy.
"If I don't try, how would I know it's impossible?"
Sun Mo shrugged. "Moreover, I don't like to live a life that follows the rules. I want to pursue freedom and my ideals. That's my life."
"Is your life just to live off a woman?"
Bai Fu's voice was calm, but it was filled with mockery instead.
"I don't like this fellow!"
Lu Zhiruo pouted.
"Bringing the Central Province Academy into the Nine Greats and allowing it to stand at the pinnacle once again is my ideal!"
Sun Mo's tone was sincere.
"Mundane matters! Mundane! "
Bai Fu didn't want to hear it. She was deeply afraid that these words would taint her ears.
"You are extraordinary. Then what do you pursue?"
Sun Mo felt like cursing. "Could it be that you want to roam the nine provinces and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the world?"
Sun Mo mentally mused. (If you had a phone, you would most probably be able to post ten times a day, right?)
"See all the people in the world! See all the emotions in the world! From my point of view, saints are nothing but a pile of bones. Emotions are the only things that exist forever in the world! "
Bai Fu smiled. "I'm afraid you won't be able to understand if I tell you all this, right? After all, to genius great teachers like you, becoming a saint is your lifelong pursuit! "
"As expected of a lunatic!"
Sun Mo started to hesitate. Should he stop poaching this person?
What if he brought her back and taught a bunch of pretentious, cultured girls?
