Chapter 205 Apprenticeship
After hearing Shen Baisu's question, Xia Yanqing remained silent for a moment.

He stared at Shen Baisu for a moment before asking, "So, you've completely forgotten about what you said about introducing me to your master, Junior Uncle?"

Shen Baisu: "..."

Is this... really true?

Seeing this, Xia Yanqing's lips twitched slightly. Shen Baisu didn't even need to say anything; Xia Yanqing already knew the answer. Sure enough, he had forgotten.

Fortunately, he still remembers.

Indeed, you have to remember your own things.

"You must be Teacher Xiao Su's fourth senior sister?" Before Shen Baisu could say anything, Xia Yanqing turned to look at Nangong Ling.

Nangong Ling didn't know Xia Yanqing. She was originally curious about who Xia Yanqing was, so she was a little surprised when he turned around and asked her a question.

However, seeing that he seemed quite familiar with her junior sister, Nangong Ling immediately treated him as one of her own.

She nodded to Xia Yanqing, "Yes, I am. And you are?"

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Xia Yanqing's smile deepened, and her gaze towards Nangong Ling became more eager. "Hello, my name is Xia Yanqing."

"I heard from Teacher Su that you are a cultivator with the wind spirit root, and I am also a cultivator with the wind spirit root. I wonder if you would be willing to take me as your disciple?"

"Don't worry, I didn't study for nothing. Just tell me what you need, and I will do it if I can."

Nangong Ling: ?

Nangong Ling was stunned for several seconds after being inexplicably asked to become someone's disciple.

She stood there, blinking several times, before finally looking at Shen Baisu and asking, "You've taken on another disciple for me?"

When Xia Yanqing heard her use the word "again," she guessed that this wasn't the first time Shen Baisu had done something like this.

For a moment, Xia Yanqing's feelings were somewhat complicated.

However, a glimmer of hope lingered in my heart.

Shen Baisu's actions must be due to their close relationship; if that's the case, Shen Baisu's senior sister might be willing to accept him as a disciple.

Unaware of Xia Yanqing's inner thoughts, Shen Baisu was joking with Nangong Ling, "I didn't help you take on a disciple, I only said I'd introduce you."

As Shen Baisu spoke, she walked straight to Xia Yanqing's side and patted him heavily on the shoulder. "He has excellent aptitude, a top-grade wind spirit root."

"And his character is beyond reproach. Just look at his merit points to know his character... Oh, I forgot, you can't see his merit points."

"In short, his character and aptitude are beyond reproach, and you will definitely not lose out by taking him as your apprentice."

After Shen Baisu finished speaking, she even gave Nangong Ling a cute wink.

Meeting her expression, Nangong Ling raised an eyebrow and then shifted her gaze to Xia Yanqing.

Xia Yanqing was staring blankly at the hand resting on his shoulder when he suddenly felt a gaze fall on him. He quickly looked away and looked at Nangong Ling.

Upon meeting Nangong Ling's scrutinizing gaze, Xia Yanqing immediately straightened up, instinctively standing at attention and looking back at Nangong Ling with a firm gaze.

After looking at him for a moment, Nangong Ling said, "Since Junior Sister has spoken, then you can learn from me for a while. When I am completely satisfied with you, I will formally accept you as my disciple."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yanqing's eyes lit up with joy. He composed himself and respectfully addressed Nangong Ling as "Master."

Nangong Ling waved her hand at him, "No need for formalities."

Shen Baisu looked at the newly formed master and disciple pair and said, "You two should add each other on WeChat. If you don't have time to meet, your fourth senior sister can teach you on her phone. You can also ask her any questions on WeChat."

Having spent over half a month learning about this world with Shen Baisu, Nangong Ling already had WeChat. Hearing Shen Baisu's words, she immediately pulled out her phone and showed her QR code, "Here, scan me." After Xia Yanqing scanned it, Nangong Ling, while staring at her phone screen, asked Xia Yanqing, "What did you say your name was? What are your courtesy names?"

Xia Yanqing: "Xia Yanqing, Xia as in summer, Yanqing as in calm seas and clear rivers."

While slowly tapping her phone screen, Nangong Ling nodded in approval and said, "Xia Yanqing, what a good name."

Xia Yanqing: "Thank you for your praise, Master."

"Master and Junior Uncle haven't had dinner yet, have they? I wonder if I could give you two a chance to have a meal together?"

Nangong Ling didn't reply, but looked at Shen Baisu.

For now, she's just an accessory to the junior sister; she gets to decide where she goes.

Shen Baisu nodded, "Sure, that's perfect. It's your first time meeting as master and disciple, so you can chat more."

So, Shen Baisu and Nangong Ling got into Xia Yanqing's car.

On the way to the restaurant, Shen Baisu remembered Xia Yanqing's sudden visit and asked curiously, "How did you know I found my fourth senior sister? And how did you know she's the master I was going to introduce to you?"

Xia Yanqing raised an eyebrow. "Have you forgotten that you drew a portrait of my master for me before? You even wrote down her name and Taoist name for me."

“I arranged for her to get her ID card. I happened to see her photo and guessed that she was your fourth senior sister, so I came to find her myself.”

It was half a month ago that I helped them get their ID cards.

However, he was too busy at the time and didn't have time to come to Yaocheng.

Originally, he thought that if Shen Baisu still remembered, she might bring it up with him. Unexpectedly, not only did she not mention it, but judging from today's situation, she didn't even remember introducing him to her fourth senior sister as her disciple.

Fortunately, he took advantage of his free time and came over on his own.

After listening to Xia Yanqing's explanation, Shen Baisu nodded in realization and muttered softly, "I see."

After muttering to herself, Shen Baisu asked Xia Yanqing, "Have you seen my fifth senior sister in the capital? What has she been busy with lately? How long will it take her to finish?"

Xia Yanqing: "Hmm? Did she go back to the capital? I haven't seen her."

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu asked in surprise, "Huh? You haven't seen her before? Then why did she tell me she's been busy with the Special Affairs Bureau lately?"

After listening, Xia Yanqing suddenly fell silent. After a few seconds, he coughed lightly and said, "Well, I've been transferred. The director of the Special Affairs Bureau has changed. I'm now working at the National Security Bureau."

Shen Baisu: ?

“Are you going to have a problem?”

"So, your job was taken by my senior colleague?"

"That's not quite right." Meeting Shen Baisu's curious gaze, Xia Yanqing patiently explained, "The leadership thought she managed the Special Affairs Bureau well, and coincidentally, the director of the National Security Bureau retired recently and I was transferred there, so the director position was given to her."

After listening, Shen Baisu nodded, "I see."

If Feng Yin really becomes the director of the Special Affairs Bureau, she'll be very busy from now on, and we probably won't see each other much anymore.

If that's the case, then she should take her fourth senior sister to the capital when she has time, so that her fifth and fourth senior sisters can meet and have a chance to catch up.

Taking Nangong Ling to the capital was Shen Baisu's last-minute plan, but unexpectedly, the plan was put on the agenda the very next day.

The next morning, Shen Baisu received a phone call from Xia Anhe.

It is said that a very important person in the capital is ill and urgently needs treatment.
