The four of them looked at the captain and the little girl who were leaving, and continued to discuss what to do next.

After a long time, the four of them laughed and prepared to get up and leave.

At this time, the captain returned with the girl, and Confucius followed closely behind, obviously having something to do with these four people.

Confucius took a few steps forward and said slowly, "Zi'an, I have something to discuss with you."

"Master." Su Ping stood up and bowed, waiting for the next words. However, he glanced at the girl over there and felt that it was almost certain.

As expected, Confucius stroked his beard and smiled, "The Grand Commander asked me to take care of a child. I saw that the child is about your age, so I wanted to trouble you to take care of him!"

Hearing this, Su Ping's eyelids jumped, and he pursed his lips and said, "Master, you think too highly of me. I am only seven years old. How can I take care of others?"

"Haha, didn't you take good care of Sarada a few days ago? When did you become so humble?"

“That’s because I have the help of three senior students. Otherwise, I alone may not be able to do the job!” Su Ping thought. He couldn’t escape anyway, so he might as well get more people. Strength lies in numbers.

Confucius smiled and said softly, "Then let the four of you take care of it together!"

"Yes..." Yan Ziyuan, Ran Ziyu and Zeng Xi had no choice but to agree, but when they looked at their younger brother, their faces showed resentment.

Su Ping smiled and spread his hands, looking helpless. He looked innocent yet cunning.

"Captain, are you relieved now?" Confucius looked back at the burly middle-aged man.

Falga laughed and said, "Master Confucius, you must be joking. I am of course relieved to leave Rosalia in the care of your students!"

As he spoke, he squatted down, looked at the little girl, and gently warned her: "Little Rosalia, you have to be good and don't cause them any trouble, understand?"

Rosalia didn't want to pay attention to it, her eyes wandering elsewhere, but she still nodded to show her agreement.

"Haha, then you guys have fun, I won't stay here." Farga laughed again, and when he stood up and left, his steps were brisk, as if he was very happy.

Confucius also left after giving his instructions.

Before leaving, he looked at this special girl again, sighed softly, and showed a look of being neither amused nor helpless on his face, which was very rare.

Just now, when Falga took Rosalia to visit Confucius, everything went smoothly and there was no scene of the children being too young and unwilling to leave.

However, the person who took care of the girl was someone she had designated herself; it was necessary and could not be changed. Her attitude at that time was like that of a leopard that had discovered its prey, swift and determined.

Confucius had never expected that there would be such a girl, but thinking about his disciples, he simply agreed.

"Hmm? Commander..." Kong was walking on the street outside the Goethe Hotel, when he saw a person lying on the windowsill.

"Who?!" Farga turned around and saw that it was Confucius. He was relieved and waved, "Confucius, come here--"

Confucius walked over and looked into the window. "This is..."

"They get along pretty well!" Farga lay on the windowsill, smiling like an old child.

In the window sill is the lobby of the Goethe Hotel, where the four people and Rosalia are.

They sat at the same table, and no one spoke, but through eye contact, they seemed to have understood a lot of things.

"Um, little girl, your name is Rosalia, right?" Yan Ziyuan, the most handsome among the four, spoke up. As usual, he would definitely get a response.

But this time it must have been a serious blow, because Rosalia had no intention of answering at all. She vaguely felt that this person was a little dangerous, but she couldn't say why.

Yan Ziyuan didn't know all this and was still smiling. Unfortunately, the girl was unmoved. Her eyes were always fixed on the only person of her age and never on anything else.

Su Ping, who was being watched, seemed to have noticed something. His eyes never lingered, and he kept looking around, as if he had come here for the first time and felt very unfamiliar.

This scene made Zeng Xi and Ran Ziyou, who were sitting at the same table, almost fall on the table laughing. They tried their best to hide their laughter. They calmed down and advised:

"Ziyuan, if the girl doesn't want to pay attention to you, forget it!"

"Yeah, leave it to me, no problem. Did you really take my help seriously?"

Yan Ziyuan shook his head and chuckled, "I just wanted to give it a try. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. It shows that he is mature and determined. Even if I am more handsome than you, I can't impress him..."

"Stop!" Zeng Xi raised his hand and said slowly, "My junior brother is still young, and his future prospects are hard to estimate. Ziyuan, it's too early for you to speak like that!"

"Brother Zeng is right. Appearance is secondary. Inner cultivation is the most important thing. Even if I am not as good-looking as you in the future, I will definitely be better than you in other aspects!"

"You must know that success or failure at one time does not determine everything in the future. At this moment, the world is still uncertain. You, me and my junior brother are all dark horses on the way. How can you make such a conclusion?"

"What's more, it's said that success or failure doesn't determine a hero..."

Ran Ziyou shook his head and the words that came out of his mouth were as brilliant as the lotus in the pond. If he could not find a good place to go in the future, then being a storyteller on the three-foot red stage would be a good position.

Rosalia was a little confused by the long speech, but she concluded that it was beneficial to Su Ping.

Su Ping, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke up, and acted as a peacemaker, persuading the three people to calm down, appealing to their emotions and reasoning with them, thus ending this little farce.

Yan Ziyuan looked helpless and said with a smile: "I just said this one sentence, and you replied at least five or six times. You are really diligent!"

"Well, whatever. In that case, I'd better go back and study the sage books to avoid being left behind by my younger brother, a rising star."

After saying this, he stood up and left without looking back or pausing, walking with great determination.

Zeng Xi and Ran Ziyou looked at each other, nodded slightly, each made up their own excuses, and then said goodbye and left. They walked so fast as if there was a ferocious beast chasing them.

They didn't even give Su Ping a chance to stay, even though he couldn't stay.

There were only two seats left at the table. Su Ping and Rosalia looked at each other without saying a word or making any movements. They just sat there quietly.

The three people who escaped from the hall smiled at each other when they met outside.

"Brother Zeng, Ziyou, how was my move just now?" Yan Ziyuan asked impatiently.

"Not so good, I didn't show the charm that I should have."

"Or rather, it's too obscure."

Both of them spoke while thinking, but their eyes were slightly unfocused, and it was obvious that their minds were not here. They were probably wondering, how is the junior fellow student doing?

At the table, Su Ping and Rosalia were still looking at each other, both trying to avoid talking to each other, as if neither wanted to speak first.

But it seemed quite awkward to just stare at each other. It just depended on who couldn't help it first and opened their mouth to break the deadlock.

Not long after, Su Ping opened his mouth slightly, but heard the other party speak first: "Hello, my name is Rosalia..."

This familiar opening introduction, the similar sight lines, the same number of people and gender, all of which I have experienced before.

It seems to be the same on Inazuma's side. It is true that what has happened will happen again and there is no room for change or alteration.

Su Ping spoke softly, "Hello, my name is Su Ping, courtesy name Zi'an... I'm from Liyue."

After thinking about it, he added another sentence to avoid excessive similarity, because the girl in front of him gave him the feeling that she was not similar to him, and they were not even related.

"You, can you teach me?" There was a strange look in Rosalia's eyes. She was expectant but also a little reluctant, and her reluctance was mixed with a hint of eagerness.

Su Ping put his hands on his chin. He was not as smart as his peers. He could see the change in the girl's eyes and asked, "What should I teach you?"

"Teach me... teach me to read, write, and understand those great principles!" Rosalia said thoughtfully, probably because she had been told this before.

Su Ping said slowly: "I can teach you how to read and write, but I am not competent in teaching you the truth."

"why?"

"You, or I, are not enough." Su Ping shook his head slightly and said something mysterious.

"When will it be enough?" Rosalia's eyes were wide open, almost bloodshot.

“I don’t know, but it’s definitely not enough now.”

Rosalia gnashed her teeth, the expression in her eyes did not change, only determination and resoluteness remained, "How can it be enough?"

Su Ping looked into her eyes and opened his thin lips slightly: "Soon, or maybe very late, maybe impossible in a lifetime, or maybe just a matter of a moment."

"It depends on your determination."

"My determination is enough!" Rosalia supported herself on the table with both hands and stood up suddenly. Her petite body looked like a barrier.

Su Ping hesitated for a moment, and under the girl's gaze, he slowly said, "Well, this matter requires an opportunity, a very special opportunity."

"What opportunity?" Rosalia asked. This was the first time she interrupted the other person. Although they had just met, the difference between before and after was equally huge.

Su Ping lowered his head slightly, his mouth covered by his hands, his eyes fell on the table, and he said softly: "To teach people the truth, you need to understand what is in their hearts, but how can you understand the thoughts of someone you don't know before?"

Rosalia was stunned and didn't say anything.

Su Ping continued, "Then you need the other party to speak out what is most hidden in their heart and what they want to do the most, so that you can understand and change!"

After these words were spoken, Su Ping's previous mysterious words finally came to an end. He just wanted to see why this girl had to look for him.

After all, she doesn't look like Farga's daughter. She is so thin and it is impossible for her to live in the city. Anyone would be confused and curious if she came here suddenly.

Of course, it’s not that Su Ping doesn’t trust Farga, because he has already passed the test of the Master. The main reason is that he wants to test the effect of Haoran Qi and see to what extent it can reach.

Haoran Qi came out, and the sky and the earth changed color. Such power was of course far away from Su Ping, but after several rounds of condensation, it should have some effect.

Rosalia didn't know all of this. She was struggling with her thoughts and finally looked at the boy. "I say..."
