Gu Qingze rolled his eyes at her, having already seen through her thoughts, and hummed: "You little fox, don't show off your cleverness in front of my teacher. Don't you, my teacher, know about your petty nature? Do you want to show off your cleverness in front of me?" Give this drawing to your precious husband, right?"
Shen Ning's face couldn't help but blush, thinking that the master was really powerful, and he guessed what she was thinking just by saying a word.
She simply admitted it openly: "Yes, the master called me here in a hurry, didn't he just want to give me this drawing?" She pursed her lips and smiled.
"Give it to you? Who said I would give it to you as a teacher?" Gu Qingze glared at her.
"Then... what do you mean by exchange, master?" Shen Ning blinked.
"What do you have in exchange for me?"
Gu Qingze glanced at her sideways.
Shen Ning couldn't help but feel ashamed. She really didn't have anything valuable, except for the medical books that she remembered in her mind. But if she exchanged the medical books for the blueprints, it would appear to be dishonest and she would be very sorry for the master's care for her.
"Master, you have accepted a poor apprentice. My pocket is cleaner than my face now and I can't afford to change it." She answered honestly.
She knew that a noble person like Gu Qingze would never want money, so what exactly did he want? No matter how smart she is, she can't figure out his thoughts.
Gu Qingze was almost amused by her. He just liked some of the inexplicable and weird things this apprentice said. It made him feel happy every time he heard it.
"You stingy guy, how dare you cry about your poverty in front of my master? You are the queen of a country, and your pocket is cleaner than your face? You can say it out loud!"
After Gu Qingze finished scolding him, he couldn't help but smile.
"But Master, you also know that my name as a country is just a false name and cannot be taken seriously. Besides, it's his business to have money. I have never thought about spending a man's money. It's not like I don't have the ability to make money."
"Okay, ambitious! As a teacher, I like people who are ambitious!" When Gu Qingze heard this, he couldn't help but cheer, and he appreciated her even more.
Shen Ning smiled and said: "What do you mean, master, before you are willing to give me the drawings? Do you want me to give you something in exchange?"
Gu Qingze said angrily: "Your pocket is cleaner than your face, what can you give me in exchange for it? Are the drawings you regard as a teacher worthless? It's not difficult for you to get the drawings, I just want them You promise me a condition."
"What conditions?" she asked curiously.
"I want you to participate in a competition for me. This competition is very important, very important, and you are only allowed to win, not lose! If you lose, the teacher will expel you immediately!" The corner of Gu Qingze's mouth said The smile disappeared without a trace, his expression was extremely serious, and his tone was even more stern.
"Master, what kind of competition is this?" Shen Ning was even more curious when she saw Gu Qingze taking things so seriously.
"You don't have to ask so many questions. You just need to tell me whether you agree or not!" A cunning look appeared in Gu Qingze's eyes, but it disappeared so quickly that Shen Ning didn't even notice it.
Shen Ning blinked and said: "Master, you didn't tell me what the competition was, and you asked me to win or not lose. Isn't this making things difficult for me? If you ask me to compete with others in embroidery, eating and drinking, or opening monuments with one palm , then I’d better just admit defeat.”
Gu Qingze was at a loss for words. He thought for a while and said: "Of course the competition is about medical skills, but the other party has set the question for you to solve. You must win!"
