Chapter 281: Irina
Chapter 281: Irina
"Who are you?" Li Qian looked at the unfamiliar girl before him with a puzzled expression.
"You can call me Irina. I came to see you because of Teacher Iron." The girl named Irina glanced at Li Qian and spoke in a calm tone.
Li Qian's eyes flashed with a hint of understanding, but he was still mostly confused.
H
Therefore, according to reason, he shouldn't have any students, but judging from the current situation, Irina was clearly presenting herself as his student.
Li Qian couldn't understand why, but he decided not to think too much about it. Perhaps the reason she addressed Teacher Iron as "Teacher" was just a sign of respect.
After all, there's a saying, "If you don't know how to address someone, calling them 'Teacher' is always a safe bet."
"Senior Sister Irina, hello. Please come in." Although Li Qian was a bit curious, he restrained himself and didn't ask directly. He invited the Kucha Clan senior sister into his dorm room.
After Irina took a seat, Li Qian asked, "Has Teacher Iron been busy lately? Does he have any free time?"
Li Qian inquired, and in his heart, he already had the answer. Based on his relationship with Teacher Iron and the time since his enrollment, he was certain that Teacher Iron would come to see him. The only reason for his absence was that he was busy.
Irina nodded and said, "He really can't leave. Actually, I didn't come here at Teacher Iron's request, but on my own initiative."
Li Qian listened to Irina's explanation, nodding in his mind. He wasn't clear about her intentions, so he assumed a listening posture and let her continue.
"My mother, Han Ke, and Teacher Iron make a good match. They have feelings for each other, but because Teacher Iron's companion beast was severely injured, he couldn't break through to the Imperial Rank. He felt unworthy of my mother, so he never took that step." Irina spoke calmly, but her words made Li Qian's head spin a little.
"Your mother?" Li Qian widened his eyes, looking at Irina in disbelief.
Irina knew that Li Qian had probably misunderstood, so she explained, "My father passed away when I was very young. I don't want my mother to live in loneliness. She should have her own life and happiness."
Li Qian nodded after hearing Irina's explanation. This girl was quite open-minded, not only showing no resistance to such a matter but also actively facilitating it.
Moreover, after listening to her explanation, Li Qian also understood why Teacher Iron hadn't taken that step.
If Teacher Iron couldn't break through to the Imperial Rank, he probably didn't have much time left. He didn't want to delay Ms. Han Ke.
"I understand. Then, what should I do? Do I need to go with you to see Teacher Iron?" Li Qian was naturally happy to cooperate.
"No need. I've already brought his companion beast, Jin Zhubilei." Irina said, taking out a specially made beast ball from her pocket.
Li Qian was a bit stunned as he watched Irina take out the beast ball. Why was she so straightforward, just saying she had it and taking it out?
Moreover, from the beast ball she took out, it was clear that her relationship with Teacher Iron was not simple; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to get her hands on Teacher Iron's Jin Zhubilei.
Furthermore, the fact that she came to find him proved that Teacher Iron had talked to her about this matter. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to find this place.
Li Qian took a good look at the beast ball in Irina's hand and didn't hesitate to take it. As he took it, he also stated some necessary conditions, "Being able to help Teacher Iron's companion beast advance is my honor. It's also my way of repaying him, as he saved my life. However, evolving Jin Zhubilei into a Tidal Sea Spirit isn't an easy task..."
"What materials and conditions do you need? Just tell me." Irina understood Li Qian's intentions and directly stated, "Teacher Iron can't leave his post without permission. I can fully represent him in dealing with you."
Li Qian didn't stand on ceremony and directly listed most of the conditions required for evolution, though he concealed some evolution materials, planning to acquire them himself. Repaying Teacher Iron was one aspect, and the other was to add a bit of precaution, as it's always good to be vigilant.
After listening to Li Qian's conditions, Irina nodded without hesitation and thought for a moment. "Give me three days. I'll prepare everything you need."
After speaking, she took a step forward, ready to leave. But at this moment, her gaze suddenly fixed in a certain direction.
Irina looked towards the balcony, speaking calmly, "It seems it's been a while since anyone lived here. There are even mice in this dorm room. Junior Brother, this time, Senior Sister will help you clean it up as a form of repayment."
Li Qian was puzzled, not understanding what she was trying to express. But after seeing the direction of her gaze, he suddenly had a bad premonition. He was about to remind her, but it was already too late.
Irina suddenly bent her finger, and a gust of wind blew towards the balcony, striking a hidden spot. Then, in Li Qian's curious gaze, a pitiful howl sounded.
Irina nonchalantly completed this task and stood up without changing her expression. Her voice remained calm, and her tone was almost devoid of any fluctuation, "Since we've settled the matter, I won't disturb your rest."
After speaking, the Kucha Clan senior sister strode out with her long legs, leaving Li Qian's dorm without hesitation.
Li Qian quickly bid her farewell and walked over to the balcony, sticking his head out to take a look. What he saw, however, made him a bit speechless.
L
Fortunately, Li Qian's dorm was only on the third floor, so even if he fell, the height wouldn't be too great. With Lu Tianjiao's physical qualities, there was no doubt he'd be fine.
Otherwise, at this moment, he wouldn't be looking up at the sky in agony; instead, he'd be howling in pain.
But it's good to have this experience, so he'll remember not to eavesdrop from the balcony when he's idle.
