Chapter 206 Master and Disciple Reunion

As soon as he entered the Alchemist Guild, a faint medicinal fragrance hit his nose, making Liu Xi feel refreshed.

Entering the guild gate, there is a rather spacious hall. There are not many people in the hall, and they are all concentrating on their own work.

It seemed that the sound of Liu Xi's footsteps startled them, and a few people raised their heads one after another and looked at Liu Xi.

Suddenly, a few of those who raised their heads saw Liu Xi, and after a brief moment of daze, their eyes widened slightly.

Apparently, they felt that the man in front of them looked somewhat familiar.

After a few breaths, when Liu Xi walked straight towards the reception room at the side of the hall, someone finally remembered who the person in front of him was!
Isn’t it Yan Yong, the new vice president of the guild, and Liu Xi, the student who has been away from Hechuan City for a long time!
"Did I see it right? That...was Liu Xi? He's back?!"

"That should be him, but his mental state and temperament have changed a lot since he went out for a trip. I almost didn't recognize him..."

"Hey, isn't it such a coincidence that he came back just as his teacher became the vice president?"

"..."

"What are you guys talking about? It's suddenly so lively today!"

At the back of the hall, at the entrance of the corridor connecting the upper and lower floors, a second-grade alchemist with a somewhat gloomy look on his face walked over.

This person was Yuan Huan, who arrived in Hechuan City earlier than Liu Xi.

"Haha, it's Secretary Yuan. We were talking about Vice President Yan's student Liu Xi coming back!"

"Liu Xi? It's been a year since I was transferred back to our branch from the Black Rock City branch. How come I've never heard that Vice President Yan has a student?"

A look of astonishment appeared on Yuan Huan's face.

Many professions on the mainland, especially alchemists, attach great importance to their inheritance. Even before Yan Yong was promoted to the position of vice president, he was a well-known figure in the guild. He had a successor, but he, as a mid-level officer of the guild, was completely unaware of it!

Is it because he is really out of touch with the news, or has he been unable to reintegrate into the Hechuan City branch after being transferred back from the Black Rock City branch? !
"Secretary Yuan, you don't know. It just so happens that Vice President Yan accepted this student when you were transferred to the Black Rock City branch. More than a year ago, after he officially became an alchemist, he left Hechuan City to gain experience. Now, he just happened to miss the opportunity for you to be transferred back...

As for Secretary Yuan, you haven't heard us mention Liu Xi in the past year since you came back. It's because he doesn't have a good reputation. We are concerned about Master Yan Yong's face, so we rarely discuss him privately within the guild... Ahem, come to think of it, we all agree that he went out for training more than a year ago, but in fact he was just looking for an excuse to go out and indulge himself!"

In the hall, the man who had answered Yuan Huan earlier came closer to Yuan Huan and lowered his voice a little after saying these words.

"I see."

After hearing this, Yuan Huan suddenly realized something, but he did not dwell on this topic any further. He found a list of medicinal materials that the guild had purchased today on the round table where the staff in the hall were working. After taking it in his hand, he waved at the people who had answered his questions earnestly just now, and said:
"I'll send the information to President Pang first, and we'll talk later!"

"Director Yuan, take care!"

The sounds of farewells came one after another, and Yuan Huan was very proud of himself for a while.

however.

What he didn't know was that after he disappeared at the entrance of the corridor, the people who had spoken just now looked at each other, then lowered their heads, gathered together in pairs, and whispered:
"This Yuan Huan is really good at scheming. Just one year after being transferred back, he was promoted to a mid-level staff member. He flatters Vice President Pang in front of everyone and behind everyone! If outsiders heard this, they would really think that the guild president is Master Pang Fan..."

"Okay, let's keep quiet. I heard that Yuan Huan is petty and mean. Don't let him hear it and try to make things difficult for us in front of Vice President Pang!"

"That's right, let's not talk about it anymore, let's get on with our work..."

……

at the same time.

In the reception room on one side.

Liu Xicai exchanged greetings with the Guild's receptionist Gan Hongjun and got down to business:

"Director Gan, I'm looking for my teacher. He should be in the guild, right?"

"Hey! Why are you still calling me reception director? Aren't you unfamiliar with me? Master Liu, just call me Lao Gan!"

Gan Hongjun's face, as black as the bottom of a pot, was funny and stiff for a moment, but then he smiled and replied:
"Vice President Yan should be working on the second floor. Young Master Liu just came back and probably doesn't know which room your master's office is. I'll just take you there!"

Behind him, some staff members in the reception room rolled their eyes when they heard the first half of his sentence.

Their receptionist is really considerate of both the matter and the people!

But that's right, no wonder he is the head receptionist...

"Then I'll have to trouble Lao Gan!"

Liu Xi bowed slightly to Gan Hongjun.

Then, the two of them walked out of the reception room, talking and laughing, and under the gazes of some people in the hall outside with different expressions, they slowly went upstairs along the escalator.

After a while, the two arrived in front of Yan Yong's office.

"Mr. Liu, Vice President Yan is inside. I have something else to do in the reception room, so I'll go down first!"

Gan Hongjun left with a smile and clasped his hands.

He was tactful enough not to stand by and act as a light bulb during the reunion of the master and the disciple.

in situ.

Watching Gan Hongjun walk away, Liu Xi retracted his gaze and stood in front of the door. After a long while, he still didn't knock on the door.

Somehow, he felt inexplicably uneasy at this moment.

"Damn it, I'm just a cheap teacher. What's wrong with me? Is the influence of my original body's memory so profound?!"

I kept complaining in my heart.

end.

He took a deep breath, raised his arm slightly, and bent his fingers slightly.

Boom!
Boom!
thump...

He finally knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

The familiar middle-aged voice in memory came from the room. Liu Xi was stunned for a moment, and finally sighed in his heart and pushed the door open.

inside the room.

Sitting on the chair, a middle-aged man with white hair on his temples suddenly fixed his gaze on the young figure coming in from the door.

The two looked at each other, and after a while they slowly looked away, sizing each other up.

"Teacher, the students are back..."

Facing Yan Yong, his cheap teacher in this life, Liu Xi felt an indescribable emotion rising quietly in his heart. Even the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to be a little bitter and unnatural?

"You're back... I'm glad you're back! Come and sit down... You've been away for over a year, and you've changed a lot. Your temperament has become much calmer!"

Yan Yong got up from the armchair, walked to Liu Xi's side, pushed him to sit on a chair beside him, looked carefully at the student he hadn't seen for a year, and couldn't help but sigh.
