Chapter 819: Achieving Greatness

Dean Cui simply expressed his thoughts and did not stay alone with Gong Mengbi for long.

She is an extremely bold woman. Even if she wants to express her feelings to the mountain gate, most people would choose to do so in a more private time.

Along the way, besides her, there were many other deans who came to Gong Mengbi to pay their respects, and each of them had his own thoughts.

Some of them are disciples of Xun Jijiu, and they are from the wild fox faction in Tianhu Courtyard. They want to place their bets on Gong Mengbi. Some want to take advantage of him, while others want to help him rise to the top.

Some of them are not involved in the faction, but admire his reputation and therefore intend to make friends with him.

There are also some who have more complex and hidden intentions, wanting to get close to him and gain benefits from him.

There were even collateral relatives from aristocratic families who were interested in establishing ambiguous relationships with him.

There are not many people like Dean Cui who are straightforward and sincere, who are not shy or afraid, who do not flatter or ask for anything.

No matter what kind of thoughts they have, they can all be used in Gong Mengbi's hands. To put it bluntly, these people are all marginal figures in Tianhu Court. Those with ambition and will can be influenced by righteousness, and those who want to seek benefits by banding together can also be driven by benefits.

But people like Dean Cui should be cherished and considered even more.

The inspection of Fox Courtyard is not for the sake of inspection itself. One purpose is to show the importance the goddess attaches to Fox Courtyard in order to deter villains. After this, those who secretly tamper with Fox Courtyard will also consider whether they will be discovered.

The second is to correct the inappropriateness so that the grace of Tianhuyuan can fall on the wild foxes, paving the way for their education, practice and even entry into officialdom.

Thirdly, for Gong Mengbi himself, it was also a way to build momentum and reputation for himself. Before the inspection began, Xun Jijiu had already used the gathering as an excuse to push Gong Mengbi to the front of the stage, allowing him to meet the deans of the Fox Academy. Later, he participated in the inspection as a fox book editor and became friends with all the deans of the Fox Academy.

Although the attitudes of the headmaster and the chief priest were not made clear, Gong Mengbi knew it in his heart. He had accomplished several great things, which was enough to prove his determination, means and practice, and he could play a more important role and bear greater responsibilities.

When they came back, Dean Cui and Gong Mengbi had a very pleasant conversation. Chun Wanyi overheard them and found that they were talking about words like teaching, enlightenment, fox, cultivation, etc. It seemed like they were all talking about official business and there was no personal relationship at all.

Chun Wanyi thought of his attitude towards her again, and for some reason she felt a little happy and a little disappointed, so she asked indirectly, "Why did Mr. Mingfu come back so soon?"

Gong Mengbi said: "Dean Cui asked me about some things in Fox Court and asked me to go take a look and then I came back."

Chun Wanyi whispered, "I saw that Dean Cui was beautiful and admired Mr. Mingfu, so I thought you were just chatting about personal matters."

Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "Why would Miss Chun think so? It's because I promoted the Fox Academy and compiled the Fox Book that Dean Cui looked up to me. How could a fairy like Dean Cui, who has such great ambitions, say anything personal to me?"

Chun Wanyi was slightly surprised, but it was not surprising to hear such words coming from Gong Mengbi.

"Mr. Mingfu admires President Cui very much."

"She was originally employed at the Sky Fox Court, but she gave up her leisurely days to come here and open up the Fox Court. How can people not admire her?"

Chun Wanyi looked at him and said, "What about me?"

Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "Miss Chun is very talented and could have shined, but she is willing to lower her status and come with us to patrol. She can also put aside her prejudices and support Fox Court. Naturally, I admire her."

Chun Wanyi smiled and said, "Mr. Mingfu is really a wonderful person. Some people envy my family background, some people are jealous of my talent, and some people praise my appearance. You are the first one to say this about me."

"Those innate qualities are enviable, but they are not as admirable as those acquired through cultivation. Miss Chun is a person who can accomplish great things. To accomplish great things, one cannot rely solely on family background, talent, or appearance."

"If these can't accomplish anything great, then what can accomplish anything great?"

"Long-term vision, broad mind, insightful wisdom, firm mind and indomitable tenacity." Gong Mengbi looked at Chun Wanyi with a burning gaze, "Miss Chun is very smart, she can think of things that they can't think of, she is a person who can accomplish great things."

Chun Wanyi only felt as if a force of air was filling her chest, which made her heart beat faster, her face turn red, and her mind shaken.

As she looked at Gong Mengbi like this, there was still a faint voice in her heart shouting, "It's over!"

But even she herself could not hear this faint sound, and it disappeared in an instant.

She wanted to say something, but all the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter a single word.

When she had finally calmed down, she heard Gong Mengbi clapping.

She glanced sideways and saw Gong Mengbi, who looked like an ordinary fox from Yanxing Mountain. He bowed to Dr. Hu and said, "Thank you, Dr. Hu, for teaching us and clearing our doubts, and enlightening us!"

Under his leadership, the foxes praised him respectfully.

Dr. Hu's beard trembled, and he smiled cheerfully, encouraging him: "Practice well, and you will have a great future in the vast world."

"Thank you, Doctor!"

Just because of this interruption, Chun Wanyi took back the words that were originally on her mind.

"Mr. Mingfu, Mr. Mingfu, you just said something like this casually. Are you sincere?"

Gong Mingfu's attention was no longer on her, and it seemed as if his words just now were not prepared in advance, but were the true words that came out of his mouth casually.

Chun Wanyi looked at him with her eyes flickering, but she had her own judgment in her heart.

The inspector and his entourage left Yanxing Mountain with the farewell of the foxes and headed to the next Fox Courtyard.

But from this day on, Chun Wanyi's attitude towards Gong Mengbi became somewhat different.

Gong Mengbi was as usual, as if he knew nothing, but Cao Zhijiang came to the conclusion after observation: Chun Wanyi had lost interest in Gong Mingfu. To be more precise, although there were still occasional intimate actions, the affection had changed.

In the past, Chun Wanyi would inquire about Gong Mingfu's personal affairs, but since that day, she mostly talked about official business and spiritual practice.

Gong Mingfu himself didn't notice it, and Cao Zhijiang naturally didn't say anything. He just occasionally felt sad that Gong Mingfu was good in everything except love.

Just like that, time flies by quickly.

By the time the inspection of all the fox courtyards was completed, it had already entered the middle of winter.

Coming out of Fox Court on Chisong Mountain, I saw a vast expanse of white, with strong winds howling and snow several feet deep covering everything.

The sunshine was bright and the group looked at each other with much emotion.

After working together for a few months, even if you are not familiar with each other, you will become familiar with it, and even if you are not used to it, you will get used to it.

Dr. Hu sighed, "Today's work is over. Thank you all for your hard work. Take a good rest and we will see you again at the New Year's Banquet."

Gong Mengbi was the first to say goodbye, saying, "I will not be returning to Tianhu Court. This place is not far from my residence. I will see you off and then I will leave on my own."

Gong Mengbi stood in front of the cloud car, and everyone greeted him and said goodbye to him, and the relationship between them was very harmonious.

Dr. Hu stood at the back, watching with a smile, and sighed, "Is Gong Mingfu so popular? Why does everyone say goodbye to him?"

Chun Wanyi stood beside him and said, "It's hard to find anyone who doesn't like Mr. Mingfu."

Dr. Hu laughed out loud, and when Gong Mengbi came to say goodbye to him, he kept laughing. He encouraged Gong Mengbi with a few words before getting on the cloud car.

Chun Wanyi looked at Gong Mengbi, her eyes moving, and said, "Sir, see you at the New Year's Banquet."

Miss Jiao was the last one to board the cloud chariot. The horses pulling the chariot ran on the snow. The long wind blew up the accumulated snow, shaking it off the sky.

Chun Wanyi looked outside the cloud carriage, and Gong Mengbi's red robe soon became a blurry red dot and could not be seen clearly in the blink of an eye.
