“Teacher, you want to see me?” Mo Yi asked, looking the person wearing the teacher’s robe, a pair of slippers with a cartoon cat design on them.
Wang Xiangyang nodded while saying, “Yes, I’m looking for you.”
“What can I do for you, teacher?” asked Mo Yi.
Wang Xiangyang said with a big smile on his face, “Actually nothing serious. I just heard when in the finals, you performed as if it had nothing to do with you, roasting fish, grilling chicken, killing birds and making other students drooling.”
Mo Yi raised his brows and got to the point, “Teacher, are you blaming that I didn’t try my best?”
Wang Xiangyang shook his head, wearing an innocent expression, “Oh, no, no, no, Mo Yi, don’t take me wrong. I never meant that. How would I have that kind of meaning? You know, there are a lot of students and even teachers of our department who are your huge fans. If I mean that, I’ll get mass brawl.”
Mo Yi smiled humbly, “You must be kidding, teacher. What did I do to have such big influence?”
Wang Xiangyang said earnestly, “Mo Yi, I think, I mean, if you could have tried a little bit harder, I mean, you know, I am not blaming you, you know your ranking, right? Eleventh…”
“In fact, eleventh is already good enough, but do you know who is before you? It’s Zheng Xuan!”
“If using some good words on him, he is an idiot. But if using some bad words to describe him, he is a lunatic! Mo Yi, getting surpassed by a lunatic, is that what you want to see? Are you convinced? Huh?”
Mo Yi took at a look at the one who he called lunatic behind him, saying with a flat tone, “A little bit. Oh, not a bit, but a lot. Teacher, you are right. I should have tried a little harder. I feel very regretful now!”
Zheng Xuan, “…”
Zheng Xuan took composing steps and walked out from behind Wang Xiangyang.
On seeing it was Zheng Xuan, Wang Xiangyang nearly got scared the shit out of him.
In spite of himself, Wang Xiangyang backed off two steps. After a while, probably feeling that the retreat was beneath his authority as a teacher, Wang Xiangyang moved forward two steps and came back where he were.
Zheng Xuan grabbed Mo Yi’s wrist, saying, “I have got some words to tell you.”
Wang Xiang held Zheng Xuan’s arm and said with a sincere tone, “Zheng Xuan, you two can talk. Are you trying to fight him again? I don’t think it’s a better choice to fight in here.”
“After all, this is a public place, if you two got disabled, that’s nothing. You know, as star magicians, you wouldn’t grow if you don’t get hurt. Our department also encourages fighting.”
“But…what I am trying to say is that if you fight in here and break the facilities, that’d be bad. You know the facilities of our school are all high quality, very expensive. Even if you don’t break them, it’s still not good to trample the grass or flowers.”
“I know you have something to settle, but you know…Better to get rid of an enmity than keep it alive…”
Zheng Xuan turned to Wang Xiangyang who was talking endlessly, “I am here not to fight him today.”
Wang Xangyang looked at Zheng Xuan with a mistrustful face and said with a forced smile, “You are not here to fight him? So you are here to apologize?”
Zheng Xuan nodded, saying, “Yes.”
Under Wang Xiangyang’s surprising eyes, Zheng Xuan said to Mo Yi, “I’m sorry.”
Wang Xiangyan looked at Zheng Xuan like looking at an alien, thinking, “They all said Zheng Xuan is mad. I thought they were gossiping. But seen from now, he is really mad.”
“Let go.” Mo Yi looked that than hands of Zheng Xuan that were holding him.
Zheng Xuan then let go and called him apologetically, “Seven.”
“I’m not Seven.” Mo Yi said coldly.
“I know you are.” Zheng Xuan insisted.
Wang Xiangyang’s eyes were crazily rolling, trying to catch every detail of this drama.
“Teacher, I want to talk to him alone.” Mo Yi said to Wang Xiangyang.
Wang Xiangyang hurriedly nodded his head and said, “Ok, ok, I will leave you guys alone. Take your time. No hurry.”
“Seven, what would you like to talk to me?”Zheng Xuan looked at Mo Yi.
Mo Yi then stressed again, “Told you I am not Seven.”
Zheng Xuan was a bit embarrassed, “I know you are mad at me because I mistook Xu Zihan as you. But I really didn’t mean to…”
“Do you always do that?” Mo Looked at Zheng Xuan, picking his brow.
“What do you mean?” Zheng Xuan was a bit confused.
Mo Yi said with a mocking tone, “You think I am Seven so I have to be Seven. Actually you don’t need Seven, you just need that person you thought who was your Seven.”
Zheng Xuan shook his head and said, “That’s not true.”
