Wang Mingyue is not very good at making green tea, and she indeed feels that the foam of Chu Ci's green tea is too stiff.

Wang Mingyue was speechless but cooperated, "Of course the teacher is the best for me."

Chu Ci was very satisfied now.

Chu Yi saw Qin Chengfeng's sullen face from a distance and laughed, "Who has offended our Professor Qin? You look so ugly. If you don't know, you might think you are not satisfied with Lao Chu's little apprentice."

This group of old guys never mind adding fuel to the fire.

"Hey, Mingyue, why are you here?" Chu Yi turned around and waved to Xu Chaochao.

"Come with Chao Chao to play? It's good to meet more people. Chao Chao, what's wrong with you today? It's not like you usually are."

Chu Yi sensed that the atmosphere was not right, but he ignored it and continued to greet his two students.

Chu Yi is the professor who gives special lessons to Xu Chaochao and Wang Mingyue on Fridays. He has a very good relationship with Ms. Fu Wenyin.

He thought Wang Mingyue followed Xu Chaochao to broaden his horizons, but to Chu Yi's surprise, Wang Mingyue was the protagonist.

"I'm accompanying Mingyue to attend the ceremony." Xu Chaochao didn't keep anyone in suspense.

Xu Chaochao thought that Master Wang Mingyue was quite popular, and even called Chu Yi over.

Chu Yi keenly grasped the wrongness in Xu Chaochao's words. "You came with her? What is she here for?"

"She is the protagonist. The ceremony cannot begin without her." Qin Chengfeng snorted coldly. "Why? You also know Professor Chu's new apprentice?"

Chu Yi was confused. "Who is whose apprentice?"

Chu Ci smiled brightly, "My, my new disciple."

As Chu Yi's expression gradually became ugly, Chu Ci emphasized again, "Wang Mingyue, my last disciple."

Chu Yi felt a lump in his throat, unable to breathe or swallow. He had given Wang Mingyue and Xu Chaochao special treatment for two months, and suddenly they became someone else's disciples?

"Yi, do you know my little apprentice?"

Chu Yi's expression seemed familiar, as if it had appeared on Qin Chengfeng's face just now.

"Yes, of course I know her. I give her and Xu Chaochao individual lessons every week."

These words came out of Chu Yi's mouth one by one, with a taste of gnashing teeth.

Xu Chaochao is the daughter of Ms. Fu Wenyin and the eldest daughter of the Xu Group. Although Chu Yi prefers Xu Chaochao's lively personality, he does not expect to accept Xu Chaochao as his disciple.

Wang Mingyue is different. He has a humble background but unlimited potential and is quick to learn. He wants to slowly demonstrate his strength and then naturally take in a disciple.

After all, the door was closed too late, and the disciple he had chosen was locked up in someone else's house.

It's easy to regret.

Qin Chengfeng, who had a gloomy face just now, felt much better and balanced when he heard Chu Yi said that he also liked Wang Mingyue, but Chu Ci got there first.

Qin Chengfeng walked over and patted Chu Yi on the shoulder, as they were both wanderers in this world.

Chu Ci is usually quite serious and seldom smiles, but today, seeing the annoyed looks on Qin Chengfeng and Chu Yi's faces, he became in a good mood and grinned.

Wang Mingyue simply couldn’t bear to watch these childish old guys. They didn’t act like they had the final say in school.

Xu Chaochao, who was always urged by Chu Yi to do his homework, was happy to see Chu Yi being humiliated.

Other guests also came happily to participate in the apprenticeship ceremony.

Happiness belongs to others, while the sadness of losing a disciple surrounds Qin Chengfeng and Chu Yi.

Soon the two of them formed a united front and agreed that Wang Mingyue was only a freshman and could not tell much. They would carefully select next year's graduate students and doctoral students and recruit someone better than Wang Mingyue.

"Dong——" The long-sounding chimes that Chu Ci specially placed were struck by the assistant who was keeping an eye on the time, meaning that the auspicious time was approaching.

Qin Chengfeng reluctantly stood in the position of the chief ceremonial officer.

Waiting for the bell to ring for the third time, Qin Chengfeng sang "The auspicious time has arrived——"

Qin Chengfeng paused and said, "The apprenticeship ceremony is about to begin."

"Trend——"

As soon as Qin Chengfeng finished speaking, Wang Mingyue took a few quick steps forward and stood in front of Chu Ci.

"Wash your hands——"

The staff of the manor brought a copper basin and asked Wang Mingyue to wash her hands.

After Wang Mingyue washed her hands, Qin Chengfeng sang along, "Adjust your clothes and hat——"

Wang Mingyue tidied up her appearance from head to toe.

"Bow down—"

Wang Mingyue bowed and said, "I want to learn from you, sir, so I came to see you."

"I am not talented, but I have done my best." Chu Ci replied.

"Perform the kowtow..."

Wang Mingyue knelt down, bowed his hands and head to the ground.

"prosper--"

Wang Mingyue was still kneeling and straightened up.

"admonition--"

Chu Ci said in a gentle voice, "A student should be well-informed, review, understand, practice, and be humble, only then can he achieve success in his studies."

"You are young and intelligent, but being too cautious will lead to harm. You must have the courage to move forward, but also the ability to stop and think before acting."

"Disciples are taught."

"Teacher's Salute——"

The staff brought out the edible food that Wang Mingyue had prepared.

Xu Chaochao presented the six gifts of green jade and agate carved that Wang Mingyue had ordered.

Chu Ci raised his hand and motioned for his assistant to take it.

"prosper--"

Wang Mingyue stood up.

Qin Chengfeng sang "The ceremony is over——"

"Okay!" Chu Ci laughed heartily. "From now on, Wang Mingyue will be my last disciple. The child is young, please take good care of him."

Many of Chu Ci's friends present were university professors with so many students, but there had never been such a formal apprenticeship or students giving such solemn gifts to their apprentices.

Accepting a disciple means asking some good friends to be witnesses, and kowtow and offer tea to them, which is pretty much it.

Chu Ci's friends think that Chu Ci's attitude is too exaggerated.

I really think it's an exaggeration. I'm definitely not being sour, absolutely not!

"Although the material of this jade carving set of Shuxiu Liuli is ordinary, the carving is indeed exquisite."

Qin Chengfeng seemed to be talking about jade carving, but in fact he was beating around the bush and said, "You have recruited so many disciples with such fanfare and expense, I'm afraid Mingyue must be under a lot of pressure."

He almost pointed at Chu Ci's nose and said, "You are my last disciple and only a freshman. How do you know anything about the etiquette of paying homage to your teacher? The Shuxiu sculpture must have been made by Chu Ci himself to make it look more impressive."

"That's what I don't like about her, she's too ostentatious. She only runs a small studio with a turnover of only tens of millions, but she loves to do these flashy things."

Chu Ci pretended to be distressed and said, "But this kid said that this is the only time to pay homage to his master and he refused to give in. I had no choice but to make things more generous. I can't be less generous than my apprentice, right?"

"Just brag." Qin Chengfeng didn't believe it.

Chu Ci said that all his disciples were bad in every way, but in fact he was just showing off. Bragging is 50% true and 50% false.

"Children of their age should focus on their studies instead of setting up a studio."

Chi Yuan knew his teacher's way of speaking very well, and quickly replied, "Junior sister's studio has just started, and it has caused a stir on the Internet. It's simply outrageous."
