The dusk illuminated the office with an orange hue.
An Xinhui felt a little hungry. She opened the drawer and took out a sesame seed cake.
Creak!
The door swung open.
"Ms. An, let's go for dinner. Aiya, why are you eating sesame seed cake again? How many times have I told you? Not to mention that you're a cultivator, even an ordinary person wouldn't be able to take it if they ate these nutritious things every day. "
An Xinhui came in. When she saw An Xinhui starting to eat the sesame seed cake again, she immediately rushed over and snatched the sesame seed cake away.
"I'm not hungry!"
An Xinhui explained.
"If you're not hungry, why are you still eating?"
Gu Xiuxun's lips twitched. "Given your strength, it's more than enough for you to be a teacher in one of the Nine Greats. Moreover, your treatment would surely be very good. Is there a need for you to tire yourself to this extent for the sake of the Central Province Academy?"
"After all, this is the foundation established by my ancestors. I can't let it decline in my hands."
An Xinhui shook her head.
"Ms. An …"
Gu Xiuxun didn't know how she should persuade her. She knew that An Xinhui basically didn't like managing a school. She simply wanted to guide students and research academics.
Honestly speaking, An Xinhui had wasted too much time during these three years. If she had focused on teaching, it wouldn't have been a problem for her to rise to 4 stars.
Managing a school was basically a waste of An Xinhui's talent.
"Let's go eat!"
Seeing An Xinhui taking out another sesame seed cake and chewing on it while continuing to work, Gu Xiuxun rushed over and directly pulled her hand, wanting to leave.
"I still have a lot of work to do."
An Xinhui felt helpless. Half a year later, her arrangements would take effect. At that time, she would have money. Actually, she was preparing to reveal her true intentions to Zhang Hanfu and fire Zhou Yong at that time. At that time, she wouldn't have any worries.
Because of Sun Mo, the time was brought forward by six months. However, An Xinhui was the kind of person who wouldn't regret her actions. Hence, she was actively solving the problem, doing her best to reduce the expenses and squeeze out more funds, hoping that they could last through these six months.
"Let's eat first!"
Gu Xiuxun was very stubborn. After she pulled An Xinhui to the canteen that was specially prepared for teachers, she immediately went to buy a large pile of delicious food.
"I'll have a big drumstick first!"
Gu Xiuxun placed a fatty chicken drumstick into An Xinhui's bowl.
"Are you making things difficult for me?"
Looking at the drumstick that was even bigger than her hand, An Xinhui was speechless.
"You should be content. I originally wanted to pick a few trotters."
Gu Xiuxun picked up some food for An Xinhui. Aiya, she suddenly felt like seeing a great beauty like An Xinhui chewing on pig trotters. It must be very embarrassing, right?
An Xinhui smiled and ate a mouthful of food, feeling warmth in her heart. It was really good to have a friend at such a time!
"Hehe!"
Gu Xiuxun was also satisfied. She kept on adding food to An Xinhui's bowl. Although the two of them had a superior and subordinate relationship, they were actually friends in private.
Although Gu Xiuxun was a masochist, she was very considerate. After An Xinhui ate a lot of food and was 70% full, she finally asked the question that she had been suppressing in her heart for a long time.
"Do you understand Sun Mo's Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands?"
Gu Xiuxun was truly too curious. Leaving aside the powerful effects, when that gay-like philosophical guy jumped out, if it wasn't for the fact that she was at a critical juncture of breaking through, she would really be so shocked that she would punch him.
It was simply too terrifying.
At the thought of the muscular guy standing three meters away from her, even Gu Xiuxun's soul was trembling. If he suddenly pounced over and wanted to do something to her, what should she do?
Aiya, just thinking of that possibility made Gu Xiuxun feel very ashamed. Hence, she clamped her legs under the table.
"I don't understand."
An Xinhui shook her head. She wasn't familiar with massages, but she still had some general knowledge. Other than the techniques being different, the effects were similar. They were all for the sake of maintaining one's body.
However, Sun Mo's massages not only allowed one's body to maintain its optimal state, but it could also allow one to evolve in the direction of becoming stronger.
One couldn't help but say that An Xinhui's judgment was truly impressive. She could sense that when Sun Mo was massaging Gu Xiuxun, Gu Xiuxun's vitality was stimulated, becoming stronger and more perfect.
"It should be some kind of dark secret art, right?"
Gu Xiuxun guessed. "In the past, when I was in the Myriad Daos Academy, I saw a 3-star great teacher using a massage-type dark secret art. It could allow the students' state to instantly improve explosively for over half a month. But when compared to Sun Mo's, it was nothing."
"It's Teacher Shi, right?"
As a rival academy, An Xinhui was naturally familiar with each and every teacher there. Besides, those teachers were very famous.
"Yes!"
Gu Xiuxun nodded. Teacher Shi's massaging technique was extremely impressive. If it wasn't for Headmaster Cao spending a large sum of money to force her to stay, she would have been headhunted by an 'A' grade school.
"I received Teacher Shi's massage. How should I put it? After the massage, my state is indeed very good, but it feels like I've just taken a bath after rolling in mud. It also feels like I've eaten my fill after being hungry. In the past, I felt that Teacher Shi was very impressive, but compared to Sun Mo's massage today, there's a difference."
Gu Xiuxun recalled.
Sun Mo's hands seemed to possess magic. The moment they came into contact with her body, even her soul felt so comfortable that it wanted to moan.
All the cells in her body were jumping in joy. It was like she had been trekking in the desert for several months under the blazing sun and suddenly saw an oasis. She then jumped in.
That feeling was indescribably beautiful.
"Sister An, you're in luck. In the future, after you get married, you can get Sun Mo to give you fancy massages. If he's disobedient, you won't let him sleep with you."
Gu Xiuxun teased.
An Xinhui shook her head. She could sense that compared to when he first came to the Central Province Academy, Sun Mo's attitude toward her was much colder.
It should be because she didn't help him leave the logistics department immediately and hurt his heart, right? However, she had planned to wait for a month, when he wasn't the center of attention anymore before making a move.
After all, with the title of An Xinhui's fiance, all the teachers and students in the school would be curious and pay attention to him.
Naturally, there was another reason. She was worried that Zhang Hanfu would find trouble for Sun Mo. Hence, she went to the logistics department. It could be considered that she had been sent to the periphery and could avoid the whirlpool of the storm.
An Xinhui was doing this for Sun Mo's sake. It was a pity that she hadn't worked at the grassroots level before and didn't know that a place like the logistics department was also filled with blades and shadows.
However, given An Xinhui's pride, she wouldn't take the initiative to explain such a misunderstanding.
"Sun Mo is really impressive!"
Gu Xiuxun sighed ruefully. For something like the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands, it could be said that the cultivation art was impressive. But if he was outstanding in teaching, then that would mean that he was truly influential.
Gu Xiuxun had once secretly gone to watch Sun Mo's lessons. Sun Mo, who was standing on the rostrum, had a smile on his face, and his voice was clear and filled with pride. Just his aura alone would cause people to have a good impression of him.
After Gu Xiuxun saw him, she even intentionally imitated him for two lessons and discovered that the effect wasn't bad. However, after the third lesson, she didn't need to do it anymore.
As a genius, Gu Xiuxun also had her own pride. She wasn't willing to imitate others. She wanted to be a unique teacher. She didn't want people to mention Gu Xiuxun's teaching style to be similar to Sun Mo's.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Gu Xiuxun + 30. Friendly (180/1,000).
"Mn!"
An Xinhui nodded. She also didn't expect Sun Mo's performance to be so outstanding. Back then when she received Sun Mo's employment letter, she had seen his resume. It was really very ordinary.
(Don't tell me you intentionally hid your strength to give me a great shock?)
An Xinhui guessed. If not, how could an ordinary person suddenly become so powerful?
"But recently, Zhang Hanfu has suffered quite a lot because of Sun Mo. He's probably going to be angered to death."
Gu Xiuxun felt very happy when she thought of the short potato-like Zhang Hanfu's flustered and exasperated look.
"Yeah!"
An Xinhui couldn't help but smile. All of this was because of Sun Mo.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from An Xinhui + 30. Friendly (220/1,000).
"Oh ya, have you heard of that giant medicine packet before?"
Gu Xiuxun thought of another matter.
"Nope!"
An Xinhui furrowed her brows.
"Sun Mo should have gotten it from the underground black market. His luck is really unparalleled."
Gu Xiuxun's tone was filled with envy.
In the underground black market, there were some peddlers who sold items that were smuggled over from the Darkness Continent. There were many items that the people of Middle-Earth had never seen before and didn't know what they were used for. However, there were still people who were willing to spend money to buy them.
Many of the cultivation arts, spirit qi technology, and knowledge that were currently popular in Middle-Earth were all researched from these items.
The people of Middle-Earth called this research archeology.
Weaponsmiths were poor for three generations, and archeology ruined their entire lives. This wasn't a joke. The vast majority of people lost everything they had, but there were also some who became rich overnight.
The most famous example was the founder of the Dragon Subduing Academy. He was originally a lowly odd-job worker, but he spent a few copper coins in the black market and bought a damaged wooden sculpture. In the end, he obtained the Great Desolate True Dragon Scripture and rose abruptly. Within 20 years, he became the most dazzling great teacher and eventually stepped into the saint realm. He established the Dragon Subduing Academy and his name was known to this day.
Many of the items sold in the black market weren't expensive and everyone could afford them. Hence, who wouldn't want to try their luck?
Sun Mo was clearly a lucky person.
Gu Xiuxun touched the back of her hand and let out a tsk. Her skin was so smooth. It was as though she was ten years younger and had returned to her teenage years.
Moreover, after soaking in the bath, her condition was really good. Gu Xiuxun felt that if she fought against Liu Mubai now, she would be able to win.
"You're now at the seventh level of the blood-ignition realm and are only a step away from the divine force realm!"
An Xinhui congratulated.
"I'll strive to step into the divine force realm next year!"
Gu Xiuxun waved her fist. How could she not be agitated?
For cultivators, after entering the longevity realm, the speed of their aging would immediately slow down. To women, what was more attractive than eternal youth?
No woman liked wrinkled skin and white hair.
"Sister An, if Sun Mo looks for you to soak in a bath in the future, you must call me along!" Gu Xiuxun pouted and lied. "Even if Sun Mo had soaked in the bathwater before, I wouldn't despise it."
"..."
An Xinhui was speechless. However, she also knew that Gu Xiuxun had the mentality of a little masochist. She might not reject soaking in a bath with Sun Mo and might even feel excited instead.
"It's decided then. Every time I soak in a bath, I can help you guys scrub your backs!"
Gu Xiuxun giggled.
(I'm saying if, if I can step into the longevity realm before 25 years old because I soaked in Sun Mo's bathwater, I'll be his maid for three years. I'll make his bed, do his laundry, and even warm his bed in winter. I'm willing to do it!)
(Mn, I can't do it. I definitely can't do it. My purity has to be left to my fiancé!)
After dinner, An Xinhui returned to her office and continued to work. She did her best to raise funds to tide over these six months. It was truly very difficult.
She worked through the night again. Only when Sun Mo knocked on the door did she discover that it was already morning.
