But he wasn't sure. After all, the legend had disappeared from the imperial capital for nearly twenty years. How could he become Ruan Qi's master by such a coincidence?
Cheng Jinyan calmly pushed up his glasses.
"It turns out to be Senior Nie." His tone was calm but polite, "Thank you for helping me with the surgery last night. Thank you for your hard work."
Nie Beilou raised his eyebrows slightly, but before he could speak, Cheng Jinyan said again: "I would like to ask, what is Senior Nie's full name?"
"Nie Beilou." The little girl's gentle girlish voice sounded.
"???" Cheng Jinyan looked at Ruan Qi in disbelief.
Ruan Qi thought he didn't hear clearly, so she repeated it very kindly, "Mr. Cheng, my master's name is Nie Beilou. Er Nie means Beilou in the east, west, north and south."
After saying that, she asked curiously, "Mr. Cheng, do you know my master?"
"..." Cheng Jinyan came back to his senses and shook his head slowly, "I don't know him."
"However, Mr. Beilou's reputation is astonishing."
Cheng Jinyan said, took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and then looked at Ruan Qi with complicated eyes.
"Miss Ruan," he said, "you told me your master's identity so easily, aren't you afraid that I will tell it?"
Ruan Qi: "???"
The little girl's face showed a bit of confusion.
"Why are you afraid that you will tell me?" She scratched her head in confusion, "Is my master a wanted criminal?"
Cheng Jinyan: "..."
"Then he owes someone money and hasn't paid it back?" the little girl asked again.
Cheng Jinyan: "..."
"Could it be that he stole someone's wife and cuckolded someone?!" The little girl was shocked.
Nie, the client sitting nearby, couldn't stand listening anymore and coughed heavily with a dark face.
Ruan Qi immediately shrank her neck in fear.
"It's not my fault, Master." She whined, "Mr. Cheng said that your identity cannot be seen by others."
Cheng Jinyan: "..."
Mr. Cheng finally discovered that the little girl's brain circuit might be different from that of ordinary people.
But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with this logic.
Nie Beilou is not a wanted criminal, he does not owe money, and he has not robbed anyone's wife.
As the unparalleled national scholar Beilou, why are you afraid of being told about such a proud identity?
The more Cheng Jinyan thought about it, the more it made sense.
He didn't realize at all that the circuit in his brain that had been twisting and turning for more than twenty years had been completely straightened out by Ruan Qi.
Ruan Yuzhi Xiaoqi didn't know Cheng Jinyan's rich inner drama. She finished eating the yogurt cake, and then started to look at Xi Jiu eagerly.
"Jiujiu, still hungry..."
The little girl looked pitifully at the preserved egg and lean meat porridge, her pale face full of expectation.
Xi Jiu originally felt sorry for her injury, but now that she is looking at her like this, all the bottom lines of her principles are gone.
Without saying a word, he picked up the porridge bowl and patiently fed it one bite at a time as if feeding a baby.
After every few feedings, he thoughtfully wiped the corners of the little girl's mouth. While wiping and coaxing her, his tone was so gentle that it almost made her cry.
It hurts the eyes to look at it like this.
Not to mention Cheng Jinyan, even Ruan Qi's own master couldn't stand it.
"Young boy from the Xi family, you're almost done." Nie Beilou couldn't bear it anymore, "She has an injured shoulder, not a disability. Don't spoil her!"
Xi Jiu respectfully replied "Okay", then wiped the rice grains from the corner of the little girl's mouth with her fingers and put it into her mouth.
Nie Beilou: "..."
