Chapter 374 - Unexpected Ways Of Meeting
...
The teaching building was very quiet on weekends.
At the same time, it was very hot.
Qin Shu poked her head in and scanned the empty cla.s.sroom with curiosity.
In the end, after scanning the entire cla.s.sroom, she didn"t see a single person.
The young professor was very punctual and would never be late.
However, there wasn"t a single person inside.
She stood up straight and walked in. She placed the pet bag on the first row of desks, unzipped it, bent down, and reached into the pet bag. She wanted to carry Boss out so that it could get some fresh hair and move its body.
At this moment, a slender figure walked in from the back door. He held a black laptop in his hand. He walked between the gaps of the study tables with his slender legs and walked steadily down the steps.
The sound of light footsteps could be heard in the quiet cla.s.sroom. The footsteps were even.
Qin Shu carried Boss out and heard the footsteps. She guessed that the young professor had arrived. She raised her head and was shocked when she saw the person walking towards her.
The person walking towards her was someone she knew. It was Han Xiao.
Han Xiao gave people the feeling that he was cold and distant.
He had sharp eyebrows and dark eyes. His gaze was reserved and he gave off a mature aura that did not match his age.
He was wearing a white shirt and black pants. His face was cold, like a flower high up on a mountain. One could only look up to him and not profane him.
A possibility suddenly flashed through Qin Shu"s mind. Han Xiao was the young professor?
A top student who had studied in high school for three years was actually a professor?
Qin Shu was shocked by this possibility. It was too unbelievable.
Could it be that the young professor knew Han Xiao? The young professor had something urgent to attend to so he asked Han Xiao to come?
Or maybe...
While Qin Shu was thinking of all kinds of possibilities, Han Xiao had already walked up to her.
Han Xiao saw someone in the cla.s.sroom and frowned. When the person raised his head, he realized it was Qin Shu. He was very confused.
He looked at the cat in her arms with his black eyes. Doubt appeared in his eyes again.
He had seen this cat before. It was Qin... Shu
Han Xiao seemed to have realized something. Qin Shu = Qin Shu? (Same p.r.o.nunciation but different word in Chinese)
He walked to Qin Shu and stood in front of her. He looked down at Qin Shu and glanced at the cat in her arms. "This cat is yours?"
Qin Shu nodded. "It"s my cat. What are you doing here?"
She wasn"t sure if Han Xiao was the young professor so she asked to confirm.
Han Xiao didn"t answer and asked instead, "So, you"re my student?"
"You"re the young professor who taught me online?" Qin Shu was surprised at first. Then, she laughed. "I really didn"t expect it to be you. No wonder I went to Hua Feng and saw that familiar-looking tree."
From the beginning, she had guessed wrong. She thought that the young professor was a teacher so she guessed that the young professor was in Hua Feng. She didn"t expect him to be a student.
After Qin Shu mentioned it, Han Xiao also remembered the day of the compet.i.tion, Qin Shu was walking around the tree that he often lingered around. It turned out that it was because she guessed that he was in Hua Feng.
"I also didn"t expect that a male student would suddenly become a lady."
"This is called self-protection. Who knows what kind of person would be on the other end of the screen?"
"You"re quite safe." Han Xiao looked down at Boss in her arms. "Why did you bring Boss to school?"
Qin Shu looked down at Boss and raised her hand to rub its furry head. "It likes to stick to me so I brought it here. I brought it out today to let it breathe."
Boss raised its head and glanced at Qin Shu. Its dark green eyes rolled around. Then, it looked at Han Xiao and called out to him, "Meow."
Han Xiao looked at Boss. ???
Qin Shu laughed out loud. "Boss seems to like you. It usually doesn"t take the initiative to greet people."
Han Xiao raised his eyes to look at Qin Shu.
Qin Shu noticed that Han Xiao didn"t seem to like Boss. She bent down and placed Boss on the ground. She rubbed Boss"s head. "Play by yourself for a while. Don"t run too far."
Boss raised its head and looked at Qin Shu and Han Xiao. Then, it walked out gracefully as if it was taking a walk.
Qin Shu stood up and raised her head to look at Han Xiao. Because they knew each other, the meeting wasn"t as awkward as she had imagined.
"Let"s start the cla.s.s."
"Okay."
Han Xiao walked to the first row of desks and sat down.
Qin Shu also walked to the seat opposite Han Xiao and sat down. She placed her laptop and textbooks on the desk.
Compared to having online lessons, it was much more convenient to have cla.s.ses face-to-face.
Han Xiao"s lectures were all focused on the main points. Qin Shu was a quick learner so she was able to learn faster.
Outside, the sun was shining brightly.
Boss walked on all fours along the flower bed. Perhaps because it had stayed in the dormitory for too long and it was rare for it to come out so it did not mind the hot weather. It wandered around the campus, not caring where it was heading.
After walking for some time, it came to a car. Boss stopped and looked up at the black luxury car in front of him, sizing it up for a while.
Boss walked around the black luxury car with his four short legs, as if it was curious.
After walking around, Boss realized that the door was open. It walked to the car door and stretched its neck to look inside. Its dark green eyes were rolling around.
After looking for a while, it jumped into the car.
At this moment, in the cla.s.sroom.
When Han Xiao was almost done with the cla.s.s, he looked up at Qin Shu. During the cla.s.s, she had been listening very carefully. He thought of the time when he tried out her martial arts at the candy shop.
She knew martial arts and was quite good at it.
However, she said that she had never learned it.
This made him suspicious.
After Qin Shu finished taking notes, the corners of her mouth curled up. "Okay, it"s indeed faster to attend cla.s.s face-to-face."
Han Xiao knew how fast Qin Shu was at taking notes. "Were you putting on a performance when you were at Linxi?"
Qin Shu smiled and shook her head. "No."
Han Xiao asked, "Then why have you changed so much?"
Qin Shu said casually, "My grades weren"t bad in junior high but later, I abandoned my studies and failed the college entrance exam twice. Later, I came to a sudden realization and successfully made a comeback."
Han Xiao pondered for a moment and asked, "What about your face? Previously, many people said that you were ugly and even disfigured..."
Han Xiao didn"t continue.
Hua Feng and Linxi were right next to each other. It was normal for news of what happened in Linxi to spread to Hua Feng.
Qin Shu suddenly laughed. A shimmer flashed in her eyes. "What they said is true. I was indeed disfigured. However, what disappointed them was that when they were slandering me, my face miraculously recovered."
Han Xiao was shocked when he heard that. He stared at Qin Shu"s face. It was as fair as jade. It was so soft that the wind seemed to be able to scratch it. There was also a touch of redness on her cheek. It was hard to imagine that she had been disfigured before.
Disfigurement was a fatal injury to a lady.
Qin Shu"s fear and panic when she was disfigured were incomprehensible to people who had not experienced it.
She, who had low self-esteem, did not even have the courage to raise her head.
From that day onwards, she began to let down her hair,. This gave her a sense of security. Her bangs also grew longer and longer.
The past was already in the past. Qin Shu did not want to think about it anymore.. She would repay them in multiple folds.
