Chapter 11: Generosity
"Or you can chase after him now. You should know that he dares to chase you in front of all the scholars in the academy!" Han Fei was happy to watch the fun. It was not a big deal for him to sell this Mohist disciple, whom he had only met twice, for the sake of "Criminal Names". Who knows, it might really work out. He could even be a witness at the wedding, and it would be easier to borrow "Criminal Names".
However, Han Fei underestimated Jin Yao's shamelessness. Before he could finish his words, Jin Yao disappeared.
"Brother, you are a step slow in speaking. You are worthy of being a disciple of Mohism. You do more than you say!" Li Si also knew Han Fei's plan.
In fact, he also thought so, but he didn't show it. This is what Neisao means.
"How can I let go of such a beautiful, rich and white lady?" Jin Yao thought so. His body reacted quickly and he followed Han Tan shamelessly.
“???” Han Tan was also stunned for a moment, looking at the little tail following him, speechless.
At least you are pretending to be a Confucian disciple. There are so many Confucian scholars, and many of them are coveting Linglong, but no one comes up to talk to you. Don’t you know why?
Even if you are pretending to be a Confucian disciple, you are also the current leader of Mohism. You should have some identity. What do you want by following me so shamelessly?
"I admit that I was rude before and I apologize. You can hit me or scold me, but please don't be angry!" Jin Yao shamelessly approached Gongsun Linglong and pushed Han Tan aside.
Gongsun Linglong was also frightened by Jin Yao's shamelessness. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. It was not right to chase him away, nor was it right not to chase him away. With a red face, she looked at her father with pleading eyes.
Gongsun Long was also stunned by Jin Yao's shamelessness, and the boy's parents were also here, so he couldn't chase him away. So he looked to Master Xiang for help.
Master Xiang pretended to be dead and pretended not to understand Gongsun Long's gaze, but in his heart he was applauding Jin Yao.
As expected of a disciple of Mohist school, you do what you think, just do good things without worrying about the future.
Hmm, it turns out that the Mohist classics can be interpreted in this way. I’ve learned something new!
"You lecher, what do you want to do?" As more and more people gathered around her and their identities became more and more important, Gongsun Linglong was really scared. If she was seen by others and misunderstood, it would be difficult for her to get married in the future.
"Let me tell you my name. Remember, my name is Jin Yao, the Jin of the Three Jins, and the Yao of far away!" Jin Yao also knew that too much is as bad as too little, so he forcefully stuffed the jade pendant borrowed from Han Fei's waist into Gongsun Linglong's hand, then turned around and slipped out of the hall.
"This~" Gongsun Linglong looked at the jade pendant in her hand and wanted to return it but couldn't find the person. She only remembered the name and the gorgeous sword. As for the person, only a blind person would remember him.
"Keep it. This jade beads are of high quality and extremely valuable. They were made by a master craftsman." Gongsun Long glanced at the bewildered Gongsun Linglong and spoke.
"Who wants his things!" Gongsun Linglong blushed but did not throw away the jade pendant.
"If I remember correctly, this jade beads are the token of Princess Honglian of Korea!" Han Tan reminded, taking advantage of the fun.
He knew very well that this jade beads were a birthday gift from the King of Han to Princess Honglian, and then given by Honglian to her brother, Han Fei, the ninth prince of the Kingdom of Han. But he just wouldn't say it. Well, he just liked to play with it!
"Shameless, bastard!" Gongsun Linglong felt inexplicably disgusted and annoyed. He actually gave her another woman's things!
"Where is my jade pendant?" Han Fei also realized later that the jade pendant he was wearing was missing.
If Honglian knew that he had lost the jade pendant, she wouldn’t know how to kill him!
"If nothing unexpected happens, it should have been taken away by Jin Yao. The Mohist stealing technique is equally unique!" Li Si didn't even touch his body. He was very poor now. When a thief came, he would leave a day's food allowance with tears in his eyes. He didn't worry about being stolen at all.
Han Fei wanted to cry. He just wanted to sell out the other party without taking any actual action. In the end, he got nothing and lost a jade pendant that could cost him his life.
"Traveling around to study, the world is dangerous, you should reflect on yourself, brother!" Li Si said with some gloating.
"Alas~" Han Fei had a sad face. This was not a question of how expensive it was, but a question of whether someone's life would be lost.
"Brother Han, I'm back again!" Jin Yao suddenly appeared beside Han Fei. How could he leave since he hadn't figured out the problem with his reverse scale? The key point was that he still had to stay in Linzi for a while to study the Mohist classics. It would be stupid if he didn't take advantage of a wealthy man like Han Fei.
Also, Xunzi said that he didn't know martial arts, and Han Fei also said that he was very weak, but the move that blocked him earlier clearly showed that he had martial arts skills.
"Where is my jade pendant?" Han Fei saw Jin Yao as if he had found a life-saving straw. He immediately ran up to hug Jin Yao's arm and asked loudly.
"What jade pendant? We are not that familiar with each other. I can sue you for destroying my reputation!" Jin Yao would never admit it, unless he was caught in the act, he would not admit it no matter who came to him!
"Brother, big brother, please, give it back to me, it will really kill people!" Han Fei didn't care about his status at all, looking at Jin Yao with tears in his eyes. Compared with face, Honglian was more fatal.
"What jade pendant? I didn't see it!" Jin Yao still refused to admit it. He knew very well that it was given to Han Fei by Honglian. It was extremely valuable. If it wasn't valuable, he wouldn't have given it to Han Fei!
Han Fei was dumbfounded. When did the Mohist school have such a rogue disciple? Didn't the Mohist school pride themselves on being chivalrous? How could there be such a person? Otherwise, he would not have been caught off guard and let Jin Yao's half-baked skills succeed.
"Tell me, how much money do you want to return the jade to me?" Han Fei knew that the jade would not be returned, so he had to find another way. He had the money, but there was only one jade, so he had to get it back.
"If I said I didn't take it, then I didn't take it!" Jin Yao was no fool. He admitted his crime in front of the two future bosses of the Legalists. He would be punished leniently for confessing but spend the rest of his life in prison. Therefore, if he resisted, he would be punished severely and go home for the New Year. He would never admit it, even if he was beaten to death.
"Brother, big brother, I call you brother, can't you just be honest and pay me back?" Han Fei was really angry. He originally thought that he was worthy of making friends with him, but now this attitude made him lose the desire to make friends with him.
Jin Yao looked at Han Fei, whose expression had changed, and realized that he had gone too far. He touched his head awkwardly and said, "I'll give it to Miss Linglong!"
"..." Han Fei looked at Jin Yao and wanted to strangle him to death. You went to please the girl, why did you take my things.
"Well, how about I go and get it back?" Jin Yao was a little scared when he saw that Han Fei's face was still gloomy. The consequences of angering someone are very serious.
"Forget it! But you must marry the noble lady, and then lend me the famous book "Criminal Law"!" Han Fei was soon relieved. The jade pendant had been given away, and if he wanted it back, Jin Yao could lose face, but he couldn't.
It was my fault for wanting to scheme against the other party and trick him into giving me the Criminal Law from the very beginning. I deserved this.
