A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 16 Looking at my proud cousin

Li Xianda was completely stunned.

What did Senior Brother Chen just say?

Should we go take a look?

What to look at?

Looking at his arrogant cousin?

...it's over.

I just had a brain fart and exposed my cousin. Will my family kill me for it?

If my cousin Tianjiao gets into any trouble at the academy because of me, even ten of me wouldn't be enough for my family to wipe out.

As the only son of the Li family, Li Xianda should have been pampered and spoiled by his family as he grew up.

If it weren't for Zhou Hanzhang.

In Li Xianda's eyes, Zhou Hanzhang was a devil.

It's one thing to be good-looking, but it's another to not know how to use your beauty to make money.

How is it that he is so knowledgeable and excels at everything he does?

Being top-notch is one thing, but working so hard is another.

It's fine if he tries his best, but his family shouldn't compare him to themselves.

He originally thought he was good in every way. Born into a merchant family, he was a qualified successor and an outstanding business genius.

But if you put him next to your cousin, he really looks no different from a pile of shit.

That's not an exaggeration at all.

Not only did his family dislike him being around Zhou Hanzhang, but he himself didn't like it either.

But recently, my family has been acting strangely. When they heard that my cousin was coming to Tianan Academy, they insisted on spending a huge sum of money to get themselves admitted as well.

It is said that the money spent could have built ten or eight more Tianan Academys.

It hurts so much...

But when I thought about all the money I had already spent, I knew I had to keep it. I couldn't afford to lose money, but I also couldn't afford to lose money.

However, he dared not think about it too much.

Thinking about it carefully, it's because my family was afraid that my cousin would suffer. If my cousin's personality angered the teachers, they could make me take the blame for their anger and use it to divert their attention.

Hey……

Although he didn't like being around his cousin Tianjiao, it didn't stop him from liking him.

When he was little, that boy was as cute as a New Year's picture doll, and he always followed behind me calling me "brother".

As he grew up, he always had a dark expression on his face, as if he owed him millions of dollars.

But it doesn't matter. He's already given himself up, so surely he can make his proud cousin's life a little easier?

Right?

But it seems he just sold out his cousin?

Li Xianda shook his head vigorously, trying to banish all those thoughts.

He quickly caught up with Chen Moran, hoping to confirm, "Senior Brother Chen, you just said you were going to see my cousin?"

What if it isn't?

"Yes, didn't you say he could counteract your birth chart? I'll go take a look," Chen Moran's voice came.

Li Xianda's mind went blank. It was all over.

Rumor has it that you absolutely must not let Chen Moran remember you.

But today, he single-handedly made him remember not only himself, but also his cousin.

It seems I can't go home.

He began to mentally assess his businesses in the city, figuring that he could hide from each business for a few days, and that would allow him to remain hidden for a while.

After thinking it over again, he gave up.

His grandfather didn't know if he had put a tracking device on him, but every time he tried to hide, his grandfather and his men were always able to find him accurately.

He let out a long sigh.

I just hope that Senior Brother Chen won't remember his cousin too much.

Remember yourself, accept it.

But putting aside my cousin's brilliant mind, just his stunningly beautiful appearance alone makes it hard for anyone not to remember him.

He scratched his head in frustration.

Hopefully, Senior Brother Chen won't find his cousin?

That seems unlikely.

All the fellow disciples ate, lived, and went to school together. Even if we don't meet today, we will meet again someday.

Just as he was lost in thought, Chen Moran had already arrived outside their schoolhouse.

When Li Xianda stepped into the school, he saw his cousin Tianjiao sitting on a bench under the shade of a tree in the schoolyard.

They chatted leisurely with the Jiang family's son and a new student.

Li Xianda: ...

He frantically winked at his cousin, as if he wanted to stare a hole through him.

But Zhou Hanzhang had his back to them and didn't see him at all, even if he blinked blindly, he wouldn't have noticed.

Seeing this, Chen Moran stepped forward and said quietly, "You guys seem to be having a good time."

Before Zhou Hanzhang could get up and turn to speak, Li Xianda rushed to her side and grabbed her hand.

Blinking frantically.

Zhou Hanzhang was startled when he saw the chubby boy rushing towards him. He was about to dodge when he realized that it was his cousin, so he forced himself to stand still and said, "Cousin."

But what's wrong with this cousin's eyes?

She was quite puzzled. Was she perhaps saying hello?

She tentatively responded by winking twice at Lee Hsien-tae.

Li Xianda was sweating profusely. What was wrong with his cousin Tianjiao today?

Even in this state, how can he still not receive it?

In the end, he could only manage a smile that was more like a grimace, turned her around to face Chen Moran, and introduced her, "Zhangzhang, this is Senior Brother Chen Moran from Tianan Academy."

As Zhou Hanzhang turned his head, he saw Chen Moran, who had just spoken.

Today, Chen Moran was dressed in a plain white long robe with a blue silk sash tied around her waist. Her long hair was tied up with a simple wooden hairpin and fluttered gently in the wind.

With a handsome face, deep eyes, and an ethereal, otherworldly air, he seemed ready to depart at any moment.

Zhou Hanzhang felt that he was considered a beauty in this generation, but the person in front of him, just in terms of appearance, was no less than himself.

Moreover, he possessed an ethereal aura.

Although she is strikingly beautiful, she is still somewhat feminine.

The person before me is like a work of art, every line flowing with poetry and exuding a faint scholarly air, as if he were the most elegant stroke in a landscape painting.

She immediately became humble, realizing that she was just an ordinary person and couldn't compare to him.

Although Zhou Hanzhang had never met him, Chen Moran was so famous that even the original owner of this body had heard of him, despite staying at home studying every day.

Although he had the appearance of an immortal, in most people's eyes he was practically a demon.

Zhou Hanzhang immediately pulled Jiang Bowen and the students behind him together, and nodded slightly to Chen Moran, "Hello, senior brother."

Seeing that his cousin was sensible, Li Xianda breathed a sigh of relief and was thinking of pulling his cousin away to escape first.

But Chen Moran's voice came again, unusually explaining, "Just now, this chubby guy said that you can suppress his birth chart and even bring him good fortune. I was wondering how you did it."

Lee Hyun-dae, who was called "Little Fatty": ...I am a bit plump, but I wouldn't call myself fat, would I?

Besides, why did you turn around and tell what I said to you to my cousin Tianjiao?

I don't know if my cousin will tell his family.

The thought of this possibility made his buttocks tighten.

Forget it, let's just get through this for now.

The moment Zhou Hanzhang turned her head, Chen Moran had been staring at her.

Looking at her face, Chen Moran frowned, a rare occurrence for him.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Hanzhang smiled slightly and asked, "Senior Brother Chen, have you figured it out?"

Chen Moran ignored her completely, shook his head, and muttered, "Strange, very strange."
