Lin Xiaodong is such an outstanding student. He wants to stay in the college, but judging from the current situation, staying in the college will really cause some trouble.
Whether it's the Chen family or Master Shi'an, the academy is not easy to mess with.
Moreover, what Master Shi'an said does make sense.
At the same time, a large group of students outside were secretly observing everything going on in the office. They didn't know the conversation inside, so they could only guess.
"I don't know why Master Shi'an came to the academy."
"I think he may be here to see Lin Xiaodong."
"Nonsense, I must be here for Lin Xiaodong, but the question is why are you looking for Lin Xiaodong?"
"What else can I do? I must be here to recruit disciples."
"But hasn't Lin Xiaodong already rejected him?"
"..." Just as everyone was talking about it, Li Tian spoke.
"In my opinion, Master Shi An is here to cause trouble for Lin Xiaodong!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "How is it possible? Doesn't that Master Shi An admire Lin Xiaodong very much?"
Li Tian sneered and said: "It's right to admire Lin Xiaodong, but he actually rejected Master Shi'an in front of so many people. Don't you want to lose face?"
Everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
"Yes, it does hurt your face to be rejected in public."
Li Tian continued: "Think about it, Master Shi'an tried his best to save Lin Xiaodong at the expense of offending the Chen family, and took out precious elixirs to treat his injuries, but was ruthlessly rejected in the end. If it were you, you
Will you be angry?"
Everyone thought about it and felt that what Li Tian said was very reasonable.
Isn't it? It would be strange not to be angry when a hot face touches a cold butt.
"Yes, I think what you said makes sense. I think Master Shi'an is here to cause trouble for Lin Xiaodong."
"The only blame is that Lin Xiaodong is too arrogant."
"Yes, he wants to refuse such a good thing. I really don't know what he is thinking."
"..." None of these people knew the actual situation at the scene. They were all guessing based on the rumors, and they were quickly led astray by Li Tian.
But not everyone would be led astray by him. As one of the parties involved, Liang Ke immediately jumped out to refute.
He is one of the people who knows best what happened at the scene and what Master Shi'an said.
"Don't make any wild guesses. Master Shi'an must be here to recruit disciples this time."
Li Tian sneered and said: "Are you kidding me? I have already been rejected once. How could Master Shi'an put down his dignity and come to him as his apprentice again?"
It’s just ridiculous!”
Everyone also felt that what Li Tian said was very reasonable.
"Yeah, I've been rejected once, how can I do it again?"
"Masters also want to save face, okay?"
"You can't just talk nonsense like this if you have a good relationship with Lin Xiaodong, right?"
"..." At this time, the dean walked out of the office with an ugly face, and said in a deep voice: "Who wants to find Lin Xiaodong?"
Liang Ke took a step forward and said, "I live in the same courtyard as him, let me go."
The dean nodded and went in.
Liang Ke didn't dare to delay and trotted off to find Lin Xiaodong.
The scene immediately exploded.
"Look how ugly the dean's face is!"
"Master Shi'an must be causing trouble for Lin Xiaodong."
"Yes, Master Shi'an is not easy to mess with."
"Lin Xiaodong is in big trouble now."
"Hey, what a great opportunity it was, but now it's too late to regret it."
"Who made him so ignorant in the first place?"
"..." Listening to everyone's discussion, Li Tian showed a smile on his face, hoping that Master Shi'an could take care of Lin Xiaodong.
Not long after, Lin Xiaodong and Liang Ke came together.
He didn't want to come because he knew in his heart that Master Shi'an was here to recruit him as a disciple. However, since the master did save him and gave him medicine to heal his wounds, he couldn't refuse, so he came anyway.
When he walked into the office, the dean said directly.
"Lin Xiaodong, Master Shi An personally came to talk about you today. I discussed it with the deputy dean. As long as you are willing to follow the master to learn the art of alchemy, our college will definitely not obstruct you."
As soon as this statement came out, people outside the office immediately went crazy.
"I'll go! How is this possible?"
"You really came to him to become a disciple?"
"What ability does he have that makes the mage value him so much?"
"Yes, the mage doesn't even want to lose face?"
"I wonder if he will agree this time?"
"I will definitely do it. If you don't agree to this, you'd really be an idiot!"
"..." There was still discussion outside, but before Lin Xiaodong could speak, Master Shi An spoke first.
"Lin Xiaodong, after I went back and thought about it these past few days, I thought it would be a pity for such a good young man like you not to learn alchemy.
So I came here again today to find you and learn the art of alchemy with me.
In order to prevent you from having any worries, I first went to your dean, and he has agreed to let you go.
I also got to know you in detail here at your dean's office. You have a reliable character and a very good character. I am very satisfied.
People like you will definitely make great achievements in alchemy in the future. Today I put aside my shame and come to you again. I believe you won't let me down this time, right?"
Master Shi'an was very confident and believed that Lin Xiaodong rejected him that day because Lin Xiaodong did not understand the reputation of Master Shi'an and his transcendent status in this world.
He believed that after these few days, Lin Xiaodong must have realized the benefits of being an alchemist and had a better understanding of Master Shi'an's position among alchemists, so he would definitely agree.
After all, who doesn’t want to have a good future?
Hearing Master Shi'an's words, Lin Xiaodong felt secretly bitter in his heart. He didn't know how to answer. He hesitated for a moment, but refused directly.
"Sorry, I really have no interest in alchemy."
Master Shi'an's face immediately turned ugly. He really didn't expect that he would be rejected even if he put down his old face and approached him again.
People outside were even more shocked when they heard it.
"For God's sake, he refused!"
"Is he crazy?
You don’t want such a good thing?”
"Why doesn't he care at all about something like this that others want?"
"If only I had such a chance!"
"..." Liang Ke also found it very incredible. On the way, he repeatedly persuaded Lin Xiaodong to agree to the matter. At that time, Lin Xiaodong was silent. He thought he had heard it, but he did not expect that Lin Xiaodong finally refused.
As soon as he was anxious, he rushed in and said anxiously: "Lin Xiaodong, what are you thinking about?
How can you refuse such a good thing?"
At this time, Qiao Yu also came over and persuaded: "Lin Xiaodong, just agree. This is a good thing. We won't blame you even if you leave the academy."
