Chapter 274 The exam is over
He knew, of course, that it was wrong, but he was worried that his younger siblings would catch a cold in the chilly night.
Wen Luozhi sighed softly, "Just the two of you?"
Songzi shook her head. "I have a few younger siblings living in a dilapidated temple outside the city."
"Let's go home tonight and come back together tomorrow."
Wen Luozhi stood up, picked up her flashlight and shone it outside. "Go out through the main gate."
Xiaochun looked up and asked softly, "Tomorrow... Boss, will you lock us all up in jail tomorrow?"
How could we dare let them go? They went back and immediately took the others to hide elsewhere.
Xiaochun's little head held a big question mark; she didn't quite understand what she meant.
Wen Luozhi was amused by his comprehension. "Of course you're here to work for me! Anyone who dares to slack off will end up in jail."
Upon hearing this, Songzi pulled the still somewhat bewildered Xiaochun to kneel on the ground. "Miss, don't worry, we'll come first thing tomorrow morning."
His voice was already tinged with joy; he understood what the kind person meant.
They won't be sent to jail; they'll just have to come and work as punishment for their wrongdoing.
For the first time, the two brothers walked out of the restaurant openly and honestly. When Songzi looked up at the moon overhead, he felt much more relaxed.
Wen Luozhi rubbed her slightly sore neck; Lang Batian was already swaying sleepily.
The two returned to the courtyard, and Yan Che immediately yelled at her, "What were you doing so late!"
I've been looking everywhere for you, but I can't find you!
This is the capital city, a place teeming with all sorts of people. It's even dangerous for a young girl to be out late at night without going home.
What if something happens? His parents would skin him alive, and Wen Zijin would do even more.
Wen Luozhi picked at her ear dismissively, "You still don't understand my strength."
Wolf Overlord howled twice in agreement, his dark eyes shining brightly.
To be honest, her close-quarters combat skills are really impressive.
If it weren't for his strong physique, he really wouldn't have been able to withstand the last sparring match.
Yan Che couldn't stay angry at her grinning face.
He finally understood why his family had always indulged Luo Zhi when she made mistakes due to her confusion.
……
When the two arrived at the restaurant, a row of little beggars were already standing neatly at the entrance.
From top to bottom, everyone seemed to be in good spirits and clean.
Yan Che learned about what happened last night. He looked at the eldest pine nut and said, "Work hard, I'm watching you guys today."
The two of them had already discussed it and decided to come for a few days to see what the children were really like.
If they are good, they can stay and work at the restaurant; they might even be given a place to stay.
If things don't go well, then we can only let them have their own luck.
Songzi pursed her lips and looked at Wen Luozhi. Wen Luozhi raised an eyebrow and said, "He's also the owner of this restaurant. It doesn't matter who he listens to."
She had already figured it out: Yan Che didn't like studying at all; he only pretended to be studious when he was with Wen Zijin because of her "tyranny."
She wondered if he had any talent for business; she was curious to see.
Each flower has its own fragrance; let's see if he can make a name for himself in business.
Today is the last exam, and Wen Luozhi still needs to go back to prepare things for Wen Zijin.
Wen Zijin's pen never stopped in the examination room, and she finished writing in only half the time.
Lin Huaizhi, who was next door, had been paying close attention to the commotion. When he heard that Yanmo's voice was no longer heard, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.
The questions in this last lesson were all his forte; Wen Zijin probably wouldn't be able to answer them, right?
After all, the questions on this exam are beyond the syllabus, which Class C students wouldn't be exposed to.
He confidently wrote several long novels, but when he handed them in, he saw Wen Zijin sleeping on his stomach and couldn't help but sneer.
Go to sleep, go to sleep. If you fail the exam, it'll be good to go back and embarrass yourself.
When the supervisor walked up to Wen Zijin, he gently patted his shoulder and said, "Young master, it's over."
Wen Zijin stood up, gave a slight bow, and then walked out of the examination room.
Outside, Yan Che had already brought Wen Luozhi to the examination hall to wait for them.
Yan Che felt annoyed at the sight of Lin Huaizhi's smug expression. He turned his head away and pretended not to see him, but Lin Huaizhi pressed closer.
"Luo'er, what brings you here?"
Lin Huaizhi pretended not to see Yan Che and greeted Wen Luozhi as if no one else was around.
His peach blossom eyes gazed at Wen Luozhi with tender affection.
However, after only a short time apart, he felt that this brat seemed to have become even more beautiful.
He was starving and heartbroken over his meager savings.
Wen Luozhi frowned in disgust, his fist already poised to strike from his sleeve. Yan Che jumped in front of him, blocking his view. "Get out of the way, who wants to talk to you?"
He flicked his sleeve, about to call out to Lang Batian, when Lin Huaizhi in front of him was already picked up and thrown aside by Wen Zijin.
"Stay away from Luo Luo"
Wen Zijin's eyes were cold and her clear voice was filled with suppressed anger.
It's inconvenient with people coming and going now, otherwise I would have beaten him up again just for talking nonsense in the academy.
Lin Huaizhi, his face ashen, straightened his clothes, which had been rumpled by the man, and left with a cold snort.
Wen Luozhi and Wen Zijin finally met, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They thought something bad had happened.
Because several students' families had just carried them to the clinic.
"Excuse me, excuse me!"
An elderly doctor rushed over with his medicine kit on his back. When he reached the door, he quickly pinched the philtrum of a student.
Wen Luozhi looked over and saw that the student lying on the ground was deathly pale. If she hadn't noticed that his chest was still rising and falling slightly, she would have thought that he was dead.
She circled around Wen Zijin twice; apart from some dark circles under her eyes, she seemed fine.
"Fifth Brother, we've rented a small courtyard here."
"The meal is ready. Go back, eat, clean up, and get a good rest for a few days."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work, A-Che," Wen Zijin said with a gentle smile, patting her head.
He was a little disappointed when he went out and saw that everyone else had their families picking them up, but when he looked up, he saw his sister and friend.
Nothing could be more joyful than this right now.
After returning to the courtyard, Wen Zijin ate dinner, took a hot bath, and lay comfortably on the bed. The softness beneath him made him feel that everything was so beautiful it was almost unreal.
Lin Huaizhi, on the other hand, wasn't so lucky. He found an inn and asked for the worst room.
There was only a dilapidated wooden bed inside, covered with a yellowed mattress; the room contained nothing else.
He gritted his teeth, went out, found a stall, and ate a bowl of plain noodles.
It was almost dark when we got back to the inn.
Autumn has arrived, and the nights are quite cool.
He had no choice but to take out the clothes he had brought from his bundle and cover himself with them. He only felt a little better after curling up in bed.
Early in the morning, there was a knock on the gate of the courtyard.
Wen Zijin, having rested, was sitting in the courtyard chopping down a tree when he heard a sound outside the door and got up to open it.
Songzi paused for a moment upon seeing the refined and gentle man before her, then bowed and asked, "May I ask, sir, is this the residence of Boss Yan and Boss Wen?"
Wen Zijing nodded. Wen Luozhi had already come out of the house. "Is that Songzi? Why are you here so early?"
