"How early was early?" Zhou Wen turned to look at Li Mobai and asked. After all, he hadn't agreed to his conditions. He didn't mind hearing it if Li Mobai was willing to tell him.
"Anyway, it's much earlier than the Federation's investigations on Zhuolu. It should have been when Old Mister Ouyang was still young," Li Mobai said with a smile, "If you're still interested and want to carry on listening, we can discuss conditions again."
"I don't think there's any need to continue the discussion." Zhou Wen turned around and left.
This time, Li Mobai didn't say another word. All he did was watch Zhou Wen enter the college's west gate, still wearing that smile as though nothing had changed.
On the way back, Zhou Wen kept thinking about what Li Mobai had said. Ouyang Lan had indeed told him that Principal Ouyang used to take her to see the Companion Beast when she was young. What Li Mobai said wasn't impossible.
