“I can help you,” Gu Lanshi said. As he said it, he barely thought about whether it would really help her work here.
Li You asked curiously, “How are you going to help me?”
Gu Lanshi pursed his lips and looked serious. “My teacher is the curator here. I can ask him to help you come in and work.”
When Li You heard this, she looked troubled. “Then wouldn’t 1 have connections?”
Gu Lanshi thought for a moment and replied, “Not really, because connections refer to people who are very familiar with some places or positions who get in through the back door for themselves. We’re not considered acquaintances because I still don’t know your name.”
Seeing how serious the other party was, Li You felt more and more guilty. The curator that the other party was talking about was her father. The person who could help her come in and work was also her father!
Should she confess her identity next?
It seemed that he would be here for a long time in the future, and she would come to the embassy often. The two of them would always meet frequently. If she fooled him again, they would become enemies!
“Actually, I—
Just as she was about to explain, Li Huaishengs voice came from the other end. “Little Gu.’
Gu Lanshi said to Li You, “Wait a moment.” Then, he turned around and walked quickly towards Li Huaisheng.
Li Huaisheng handed the clothes he had found to Gu Lanshi. “Look at my memory. I forgot that the last time my wife came over to take back those clothes and iron them. 1 forgot to bring them over after that. I went to look for Little Zhang to get these clothes just now. Wear them first and change back when your clothes are dry.”
Gu Lanshi took it with both hands. “Thank you, Teacher.”
Li Huaisheng nodded and looked in Li You’s direction. Seeing that she was standing there and not coming over, Li Huaisheng waved at Li You and said,
“Come here quickly.”
Li Huaisheng had called Li You over to introduce Li You to his student. When Li You walked over slowly, Gu Lanshi had already told Li Huaisheng, “She just came in and said that she wants to apply for a job at the embassy, but she’s still in school. If she comes in, it will only be unofficial. Teacher, can you help her?”
Li Huaisheng looked at Gu Lanshi and then at Li You, who was walking over slowly. Then, he asked Gu Lanshi, “Did she tell you that?”
Gu Lanshi wanted to nod, but he remembered that he didn’t even know the other party’s name now, so he couldn’t confirm if what he said was true. However, he believed her very much just now.
When Li Huaisheng saw the conflicted expression on Gu Lanshi’s face, he asked, “Do you know her name?”
Gu Lanshi shook his head.
Li Huaishengs expression turned serious. “Almost all our compatriots who came to the embassy are here to ask for help. You talked to her for so long just now and asked her why she asked for help, but you actually didn’t ask her name and identity information? Do you know what your job responsibilities
These words reminded Gu Lanshi. After realizing that he had made a very low-level mistake, Gu Lanshi lowered his head in shame. “I’m sorry, Teacher.
It’s my fault.”
Li You walked over slowly and saw her father lecturing the boy she had just splashed water on. She did not dare to make a sound. After walking over, she stood there silently.
Gu Lanshi called out to her, “Hey.”
Li You looked up at Gu Lanshi. Gu Lanshi gestured to her. “Come here.”
Li You looked at her father and then at the person who had called her over.
She hesitated for a few seconds before taking two more steps forward. When
Li You approached, Gu Lanshi introduced him to Li You. “He’s my teacher, Mr.
Li Huaisheng.”
Li You nodded. “Oh.”
She did not say anything else. Gu Lanshi coughed lightly and reminded her,
“Call him.”
Li You said, “Huh?”
Gu Lanshi repeated, “Call him.”
Li You turned to look at Li Huaisheng. This was her father. What should he be called?
Uncle Li?
Mr. Li?
Old Man Li?
Li Huaisheng waited calmly for his daughter to give him a new form of address. After a long while, she did not speak and took the initiative to ask, “l heard from Lanshi that you’re here to apply?” Li You said, “Uh…
Li Huaisheng reminded her, “Answer well.”
Li You lowered her head and replied, “Yes.”
When Li Huaisheng saw her indescribable expression, he was neither angry nor smiling. He turned to Gu Lanshi and said, “Go change your clothes.”
Gu Lanshi did not leave. He turned around and looked at Li You, as if he was worried that she would not be able to deal with the teacher alone.
Li Huaisheng smiled and asked, “Little Gu, do you think I’ll make things difficult for her?”
“No, teacher. She’s just a little timid and doesn’t know how to speak well,” Gu Lanshi explained.
Li Huaisheng was dissatisfied. “How is she timid? I think she’s shrewd and bold.
Gu Lanshi still wanted to explain, but Li Huaisheng waved his hand. “Go and change your clothes.”
“Okay.” Gu Lanshi nodded and left with the clothes.
Before he left, he looked back at the girl again, worried. He was actually worried that she would leave directly later. It was their first time meeting and he did not know the other party’s name. Country T was so big. If he left, it would not be so easy to meet again.
After Gu Lanshi went to change, Li You finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Before she could finish heaving, she heard her father ask her in a serious tone, “Did you lie to Little Gu that you were applying for a job?”
Li You felt guilty and whispered, “Yes, I lied to him.”
Li Huaisheng asked again, “Why did you lie to him?”
Li You confessed, “Actually, I spilled the water on his clothes, but I accidentally spilled it. 1 didn’t notice him coming from behind.”
“So you were afraid that he would find trouble with you, so you casually lied to him that you were here to apply?” Li Huaisheng said angrily.
Li You nodded obediently. “Yes. Actually, I just wanted to tease him. 1 didn’t expect him to believe me. He even said that he wanted you to arrange work for me.”
Li Huaisheng couldn’t be bothered to talk to her anymore. He turned around and pulled a chair over, gesturing for her to sit down.
After Li You sat down, Li Huaisheng went behind his desk and sat down. He opened the document that Gu Lanshi had given him and read two pages. After reading it, he pushed it in front of Li You. “Take a look.” Li You was surprised. ‘Are you showing it to me?”
Li Huaisheng nodded. “Yes, take a look first.”
Li You flipped it open. These were all research done by Gu Lanshi. They were very detailed, and she could understand them. While she was flipping through it, Li Huaisheng took a glass of water and prepared to make tea. He opened the drawer and took out a tea bag. He was used to it and his movements were methodical. By the time the tea was ready, Li You had already finished reading a page.
She looked up at the glass in her father’s hand. The buds were tender and fragrant, so she said, “Dad, I want tea too.”
Li Huaisheng pushed the cup of tea to Li You. “The cup is washed every day. I just made my first cup today. Here, I’ll go find another cup.” With that, Li Huaisheng got up and went to the cabinet to find another cup suitable for making tea.
Li You had long been used to her father giving her whatever she wanted. The boiling water for tea was only about seventy degrees. It wasn’t particularly hot, but she couldn’t drink it directly. She prepared to take a small sip.
When Gu Lanshi, who had changed his clothes, saw this scene, he rushed over to stop her. “You can’t drink it!”
Li You was shocked. The water in her cup almost overflowed. She turned to look at the person who’d stopped her from drinking tea. “Did you apply poison to the mouth of the cup?”
“…” Gu Lanshi!s expression was indescribable. He explained, “That’s Teacher’s cup. You can’t use Teacher’s cup.”
Li Huaisheng found another cup and said, “You don’t have to worry about
Little You. I’ll make another cup.”
When Gu Lanshi heard this, a trace of shock flashed across his eyes.. Little
You? He immediately asked, “Are you Li You?”
