Um!"
"-- Assistant, please!"
-- This kid... doesnt I look stylish enough? Well, forget it. Im not teasing him!
At this point, the uncle smiled bitterly and put his hand on the childs shoulder. He solemnly told Ah Jun that he was the head of Lubans family, the famous military merchant in the five counties, the richest man in White Tiger County, and the leader of the Gongsu clan, Gongsu Qian.
"Ouch!"
"How about that? Scared, right? Need a signature..."
"Well... hehe, no need, Uncle --."
"Ha! So you know?!"
"Oh, my master mentioned you to me before, that you are the second in charge of the Lu Ban family, so you are the one -- Hello!"
After knowing the details of the uncle, the child had no worries -- So Ah Jun respectfully clasped his fists and bowed to the elders.
"Well, youre a polite boy, unlike that girl, but the word old -- cough... well, anyway, how about my proposal?"
The Gongshu clan of Baihu Commandery, descendants of the legendary Master Lu Ban-the foremost divine craftsmen in ancient times-serve as the most authoritative representatives in the development and forging of guardian equipment. The current patriarch, known as Er Er Wu (250th Generation), is the intangible cultural heritage inheritor of Master Lu Bans craftsmanship, wielding the mantle of leadership in this ancient tradition.
"Thank you, Uncle..."
At this moment, Ah Jun smiled and answered, which also made the boss uncle a little surprised -- This child, do you want to refuse? This is a high branch that many people want to climb, and he actually thanked me...
"-- I really want to learn this skill. Ive wanted to develop a better set of equipment myself since I was a kid, but..."
"-- You already have a master, right?"
"Ah... how do you know? I was thinking about it -- Well, I think there should only be one master!"
"Haha! Good boy -- Its all right, Ive already told your master!"
"Ouch! Ah! Well, I..."
"Okay, okay, I wont make you difficult -- So do you want to learn from me?"
"Um! Think!"
"O, well, then, you be my student and Ill be your teacher, shall we?"
"Um?!" "Yes, yes. Okay?" "Great! Teacher!"
"Good, good, good!"
While feeling intoxicated, Ah Jun still found it hard to believe that the noble figure in front of him was so friendly and easygoing, and even followed his own ideas. It was really down-to-earth -- Moreover, he now had such a good teacher. Wasnt it a dream?
-- Whats wrong with me today? Should I go buy another lottery ticket?
"Brother Jun..."
Just as the teacher and student had just reached an agreement and were still recalling, a loud and sweet shout came from behind the uncle boss, which not only made Ah Jun feel panicked, but also almost pierced her teachers eardrum. Who was she?
"Ha... its really you, Ah Jun!"
At this time, a very lovely little girl, with a smiling face, rushed to Ah Jun, and skillfully hugged him -- Of course, at this moment, Ah Jun was absolutely stunned, or even a little frightened.
After all, Ah Jun was not used to strangers, especially beautiful girls, so his old problem was likely to break out in a moment.
The girl clung tightly to her child, her face beaming with joy. Suddenly, a familiar sensation washed over Ah Jun, gradually easing his tension. She tilted her head back and locked eyes with him. -- Her round, big eyes framed a ponytail that curved elegantly, while the distinctive dimples on her cheeks added a charming touch. The girls sweet features-her rosy complexion and perfectly rounded face-were so endearing that anyone who saw her would want to pinch her cheek.
-- Who is she? She calls me Brother Jun. There really isnt such a thing as that... Oh, no! Hmm, I think theres nothing wrong with that.
While staring blankly, Ah Jun brainstormed and judged --. Then he felt himself reaching out to touch the girls hair. At this moment, the girl was used to waiting until Ah Juns hand naturally touched her.
"Vivie?"
"Well, I havent seen you for a long time. I miss you!"
-- This is not a dream, whats wrong, todays luck is clustered? It seems that a lottery ticket must be bought!
At this moment, the stone in Ah Juns heart finally fell, and he began to recover, and he felt better and better -- The two children were like friends or family members they hadnt seen for a long time? Or...
Just as the two of them were looking at each other, feeling happy, the uncle boss who was watching coldly became a little impatient. He rubbed his ears and stomped his feet, looking very unhappy.
"Hey! You rotten girl, are you still in line? How did you get here on your own when its not tomorrows holiday..."
Suddenly, the bosss harsh reprimand made Ah Jun worry whether the girl had offended his teacher -- but of course, he was overthinking it.
The girl held Ah Jun in her arms and turned her face coldly. diss "I have no rules? Mom asked you to pick me up -- You just want to play cards, even though Im on vacation!"
At this moment, the sweet girl suddenly turned her head and changed her face, shouting at Ah Juns teacher -- Then, she immediately turned back and instantly changed back to Xiao Li Tuo, smiling and clinging to Ah Jun.
At this moment, Ah Jun really, was confused again... Then, he pointed at it with his finger, thinking, you?
"Hey, girl, who are you talking to?"
Then, the uncle sighed helplessly, looking at the stupid student, and explained with a bitter smile: "Oh, Xiao Jun, I forgot to introduce her, this girl is my daughter!"
"Ah? Oh!"
So Ah Jun looked at the teacher and couldnt stop smiling at the girl in front of him. Finally, he understood the mystery. Xiao Tianmei was the daughter of the boss uncle, the next generation inheritor of the skills in the Luban family, and the future leader of the Gongshu clan.
The story of how Ah Jun and she became acquainted dates back to a summer vacation long ago. To put it simply, whenever summer came around, this little girl would be sent to stay at Ah Juns home for boarding. Her parents were too busy with their careers-her father ran a business while her mother managed technical operations-leaving the girl without proper care. Since Xiao Tianmei was still young then, her parents had no choice but to entrust her to Ah Juns master.
So, the two children got to know each other -- Ah Jun is older, so he acts as an older brother and takes care of the girls. He gets up early with the little sisters, eats together, plays together and studies together...
In addition, Ah Jun will read bedtime stories to the girls like she would her own little sister, which is what she likes and looks forward to most. -- Soon, the two girls fell asleep while listening to the stories. But the sweet girl kept holding Ah Juns hand and didnt want to let go.
The little sweet sister is slow to warm up, belonging to the cold outside and slightly hot inside. She also lacks parental companionship and care when she was young. At first, she was very reserved and isolated, but with the company of Ah Jun and the little sister, she gradually became cheerful.
She loved Ah Jun very much, perhaps it was the illusion caused by the lack of emotion -- Ah Jun also liked her very much, because the girl was really cute, just like his little sister.
However, the two rarely saw each other later, because the girl, like Laner, went to school in Zhebei City and had no time to come back during summer vacation. But the difference was that Xiao Tianmei would often write letters to Ah Jun, just like her family.
"Ajun, lets go shopping. Theres a lantern party tonight."
"Well... okay -- but today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, you..."
Ah Jun was happy to play with Xiao Tianmei, but today was the Mid-Autumn Festival. What should he do for this reunion dinner? -- Ah Jun looked at his teacher and was a little troubled.
"You girl, you dont have to call me brother --... well, I can call you brother too!"
"Where -- Im a year younger than Ah Jun, right? Senior brother... I dont care. I like it that way!"
Then, to the surprise and habit of Ah Jun, the father and daughter had a strange argument again. What could we do...
"You, -- Xiao Jun, are my girl. Ill take care of you. Be careful... Let her eat at your house tonight. It doesnt matter."
"Thats not bad --, Ah Jun!"
