Chapter 153: Male G.o.d Professor, We Will Pretend Like We Don’t Understand
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Someone has an opinion?” Mu Yunfan felt his heart sink; he had a bad premonition.
Lu Shaoming smiled and did not speak, and at this moment, a melodious ringtone rang out. Mu Yunfan’s phone was ringing.
He lowered his gaze to look at his phone and said, “Sorry.” He quickly walked out of the private room.
…
Mu Yunfan returned to the private room 5 minutes later. He looked green, and he sat on the chair to stare at Lu Shaoming. “Young Master Lu, my dad gave me a call just now. He urged me to hurry back to Singapore. Do you know of this matter?”
Ning Qing’s small hand that was holding on chopsticks froze for a moment. Uncle Mu?
Ning Qing glanced sideways to look at the man beside her. Yes, she had nothing she could do if Mu Yunfan set his heart on pestering her. He was, after all, her older brother for 18 years. Could she really go call the cops on him?
This smart man who looked calm on the exterior was actually evil on the inside. He decided to relieve a besieged ally by attacking the home base of the besiegers, and he set Mu Yunfan’s backyard on fire.
Ning Qing was extremely touched inside her heart. How could she not understand, if Lu Shaoming really took action, he would have methods to chase Mu Yunfan away and make him leave. But he did not do so, as he was aware of her feelings.
He was not willing to make her upset.
He became jealous, and he did everything by putting her needs first. He tried his best to reduce the harm as much as he could.
How could this man treat her so well?
When Ning Qing was feeling touched, Lu Shaoming said nonchalantly, ” I had a business dealing in Singapore a few days ago. I also made a visit to Uncle Mu on the way. Uncle Mu was delighted when he heard about me and Qingqing, and he even wished us well. Uncle Mu only has one son, which is Young Master Mu, you. He has huge hopes and was stern towards Young Master Mu’s education. Uncle Mu told me to tell Young Master Mu not to waste your time on useless things. After you return to Singapore, Uncle Mu has many daughters from wealthy families for you to pick from. Young Master Mu has reached the age for marriage.”
Mu Yunfan kneaded his fingers tightly into fists, Lu Shaoming must have told his father about his marriage with Ning Qing, and his dad was a stereotypical businessman. Using profit as a front, he had already made a call to hurry him and even told him that he would order the butler to come over to return him to Singapore.
Lu Shaoming was so cruel.
“Haha, I didn’t think that Young Master Lu, President Xu, and Young Master Mu had such good relations with one another. Come, let us drink some. ” Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g listened on to their conversation and did not understand a thing. He also did not want to understand it, so he raised his gla.s.s to calm the atmosphere.
Ning Qing saw that Lu Shaoming was holding a gla.s.s of white wine, and he drank it all in one gulp. It was still her first time seeing him drink white wine.

The waiter came forward to refill the wine. Ning Qing hurriedly tugged on the corner of his s.h.i.+rt and advised him softly, “Don’t drink so much. White wine hurts the body; don’t get drunk.”
Lu Shaoming’s dark eyes looked over. He came close to her and said gently, “Relax, your husband would not get drunk even he drinks a thousand gla.s.ses.”
1
A thousand gla.s.ses? He was totally boasting.
Ning Qing used her chopsticks to grab a braised meatball to place it into his bowl. “Drink less alcohol, eat more food.”
Lu Shaoming frowned slightly and did not retaliate. He understood her orders, his dear wife.
…
Lu Shaoming accompanied Ning Qing, Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g, and another professor as they walked into the elevator. Ning Qing leaned against the wall and stood beside Lu Shaoming. The s.p.a.ce inside the elevator was a little small. When she was near the man, she could smell his crisp scent on his body, and she could smell a hint of alcohol.
Ning Qing blushed. She stealthily stretched out her small fingers, hooking his large palm which was by his side.
Lu Shaoming was speaking to Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g at the moment. He took notice of the girl’s subtle actions, and also stretched out his palm to wrap around her small hand. He lovingly kneaded it for a few moments before interlocking his fingers with hers.
The sleeve of his coat was long, and when it drooped down, it perfectly covered both of their hands.
His palm was warm, and he used a comfortable amount of strength to hold onto her hands.
Ning Qing’s heart was beating quickly. In front of her teacher, she was being so reckless, and it was all because she and Lu Shaoming did not have a chance to meet one on one.
Her male G.o.d was beside her, and she was tempted.
She lifted her eyes to look at the mirror in the elevator, and she coincidentally met with his dark, probing eyes. He looked at her gently, and Ning Qing quickly channelled her gaze elsewhere.
He was not allowed to tempt her.
She would really be unable to control herself.
At that moment, the professor said, “Young Master Lu, I heard you were a scholar from someone in the Economics department. You debuted your own company Guang Qing in Los Angeles, America when you were only 16. We have a big economics lecture in the afternoon today. Does Young Master Lu have time to guide these students and give them a lecture?”
A lecture?
Ning Qing blinked her eyes and looked at Lu Shaoming.
Lu Shaoming glanced at the girl, and she probably thought that this was an interesting thing. Her eyes were bright and full of admiration as she looked at him, and she was antic.i.p.ating silently.
Lu Shaoming had a smile while he nodded his head. “I will gladly accept your invitation.”
…
In the afternoon, Lu Shaoming held a large lecture about economics in the lecture hall. The lecture hall was jam packed, and students who were unable to get a seat were all squeezed against the windows trying to peek in.
Yin Shuiling sat beside Ning Qing. She saw that Ning Qing’s exquisite face was blus.h.i.+ng red, and she stretched out her hand to nudge her. “Ning Qing, stop looking. That male G.o.d professor standing on the lecturer’s stand is yours, n.o.body is s.n.a.t.c.hing him away from you. If you look on longer, you will be drooling.”
Ning Qing’s long lashes that were as long as a b.u.t.terfly’s wings fluttered shyly, and she pouted her pink lips while she said in fl.u.s.tered tone, ” When did I look at him? I was listening to his lecture.”
Despite what she had just said, Ning Qing could not help but sneak a peek at him.
Lu Shaoming removed his coat, and he was wearing a beige s.h.i.+rt matched with black trousers. He looked mesmerizing and handsome, and his two large hands were placed on the stand. His fingers were long and defined, and he looked mature.
His voice was charming, and it reverberated throughout the 4 corners of the lecture hall. His voice sounded like a s.e.xy love spell. Ning Qing did not understand whatever he was saying. She was a fool when it came to math, but his scholarly and elegant appearance made him look attractive, and he looked like a real lecturer, pure and exceptional.
The lecture hall was very quiet. The girls all cupped their faces with both hands looking smitten, the boys listened on and were captivated, and they were impressed with his immense knowledge.
Every time Ning Qing looked at him, her heartbeat would go haywire again. She had the thoughts of a young girl, she was mesmerized with his impressive knowledge.
“Ning Qing, you were never interested in math and economics. Who are you fooling by saying that you were listening to his lecture? Look at the little expressions in your eyes. You hate that you couldn’t go up to pounce on him right now.”
Her own thoughts were just said aloud by someone else. Ning Qing immediately turned coy, “Shuiling, don’t speak nonsense. I, we…”
Yin Shuiling pushed her elbow teasingly and said, “What about you two? You have been husband and wife for so long. Look at how shy you still are.”
“Aiyo, this is China. Shuiling, if you continue to joke with me, I will not bother with you anymore.” Ning Qing was shy, and she wanted to look for a hole to bury herself into.
Yin Shuiling stayed in the United Kingdom for 3 years. Her mindset had become more liberal, but Ning Qing was still an honest little girl; she was shy as someone made fun of her.
“Tsk, tsk..” Yin Shuiling shook her head at Ning Qing and continued, “I am getting worried seeing how shy you are. Since Young Master Lu likes it this way, taming a small white sheep. Men all love to do things like that.”
Ning Qing: “…”
At this moment, Lu Shaoming, who was on the lecturer’s podium, wrote a formula on the black board and asked a student to answer.
“Male G.o.d Professor, I know how to do this.” The students all raised their hands.
Lu Shaoming looked at the vast number of hands that were raised, “What about this, I will call your student number. Whoever I call out, the person will stand up to answer, okay?”
“Okay.” The students agreed.
“Number 28.” Lu Shaoming said a number randomly.
Number 28?
Ning Qing felt her small head short circuit. This student number seemed very familiar.
At this moment, the students were all scanning the room. Everyone cheered excitedly, “Ning Qing, your Professor Lu is asking you to answer the question.”
Lu Shaoming looked at the girl. He had noticed her. She was not listening attentively in cla.s.s, and was constantly exchanging secrets with Yin Shuiling.
She was in a blur at this moment, and she definitely did not know the answer.
The girl stood up, and her beautiful moist eyes gazed at his face unhappily, as if she were blaming him for picking number 28.
“Ning Qing, your Professor Lu is waiting for you to answer the question. Do you know the answer to this formula?”
“That’s right, Ning Qing. Professor Lu had answered this question in the beginning. You didn’t listen to him. What were you looking at?
Yin Shuiling brought the other students along to tease her.
Ning Qing bit on her supple lower lip. Oh, she didn’t want to live anymore.
“Alright, since she is unable to answer, forget it then. Sit down.” Lu Shaoming saw the girl’s awkward expression and helped her out of her predicament.
“Male G.o.d Professor, you can’t be like this, our Professor Dong would punish anyone who wasn’t able to answer a question by making them erasing the chalkboard. You are covering up for your girlfriend right now. This is not fair. This is not fair!”
The students were reluctant to miss a good show, and the entire lecture hall turned into chaos.
Lu Shaoming curled his lips and wanted to fulfil the crowd’s wishes. He had no choice but to say to Ning Qing, “Ning Qing, you come forward then and wipe the black board.”
Ning Qing’s small face became red instantly. She took steps forwards and walked towards the speaker’s podium under the gaze of hundreds of other students.
She went on the speaker’s podium, and Lu Shaoming pa.s.sed the duster to her. Ning Qing did not dare lift her head to look at him, and she turned around to wipe the blackboard.
In the middle of wiping the blackboard, she heard Yin Shuiling’s voice laughing out in air. “Male G.o.d Professor, allow me to ask you a question. Do you know the situation where 1+1 would equal 3?”
Ning Qing almost choked. This is the dirtiest joke that Shuiling told her when they were young, and Shui Ling was actually saying it now.
She did not hear Lu Shaoming’s voice, and she could only hear the students laughing more wildly. Yin Shuiling continued to speak, “Male G.o.d professor, Ning Qing knows the answer, you can ask her to tell you the answer tonight.”
Ning Qing: “…”
At this pathetic moment, Ning Qing realized that it was not the most embarra.s.sing moment of her life, but it got even more embarra.s.sing. She wanted to wipe the board and return to her seat. She worked hard to wipe the chalk words on the board on tiptoes, but Ning Qing was not tall enough.
That man was around 5 feet 11 inches tall, and he wrote the chalk letters so high up.
She tried hard to raise her little head up, but she could only see the bottom of his powerful and charismatic words.
What should she do?
A kind student went to rescue her. “Professor Lu, look. Ning Qing is unable to reach the black board, why don’t you help her?”
One second, two seconds, three seconds later, the tall, handsome man enveloped her from the back. The man’s huge, beautiful hands enveloped her small hand and brought it up high, wiping the black board.
Ning Qing lifted her gaze. All she could see in her line of vision were the sleeves of his white s.h.i.+rt that were rolled up. There was a luxurious watch on his wrist, and he looked cold and mesmerizing.
“Look sideways,” he said.
Ning Qing did not know why, but she obediently turned her head sideways. The man hand moved, and the white chalk dust drifted down without falling on her face.
Ning Qing’s legs went soft, and she fell towards the ground. Her senses had already been tortured badly with his gentlemanly and gentle behaviour.
But her small waist was quickly grasped by a muscular arm, “What is wrong?” He pulled her towards his strong and handsome chest.
Her senses were instantly filled with the man’s scent, and the students called out excitedly —
“Male G.o.d Professor, let go of the girl quickly, let me do it!”
“Male G.o.d Professor, we will pretend like we don’t understand what is going on!”
“Male G.o.d Professor, we have received the sweets that you have given. Our hearts are incredibly sweet right now.”..
…
After the lecture, Lu Shaoming went back to the office. The man was busy with work, and Zhu Rui stayed behind and brought her back to the villa.
After returning to the villa, Ning Qing walked into the kitchen. She blushed as she told Auntie Yang, “Auntie Yang, I will give you a night off. I will prepare dinner by myself.”
Auntie Yang looked at Ning Qing’s hesitant look, and she looked adorable. She was especially delighted as she said, “Sure, I will listen to Madam’s orders. Auntie Yang understands. The two of you want to spend some time alone. I will leave you to it.”
Ning Qing was extremely embarra.s.sed as she sent Auntie Yang out of the main doors of the villa, and only then did she dare to lift her face up.
She ran up the stairs and went into the bedroom. She took out the clothes that Yin Shuiling stuffed in her hands after cla.s.s; it was a school uniform.
Although she was only 20 now and also a student, putting on a school uniform was normal, but putting it on specially at home after school was…a little…
She also did not know what the man would think of it.
Yin Shuiling’s words rang out in her ears. “Ning Qing, you will definitely be sweet and romantic with Male G.o.d Professor tonight. Change into a new set of clothes and take the initiative, Male G.o.d Professor would definitely like it.”
Would he like it?
Ning Qing used her small hand to cover her face. Forget it. Because he had performed well today, she had to give him something in return. She would just put it on.
…
Lu Shaoming went back to the villa. The lights were switched on in the living room. Neither Auntie Yang nor Ning Qing came out, so he went upstairs. “Ning Qing.”
“Hmm, I am here.” Ning Qing responded to him from the bedroom.
He heard her in the bedroom. Lu Shaoming opened the study door in relief and walked in. He removed his coat and took the thin notebook in his hands to place it on the desk.
There was a laptop at home; this was his work notebook. He went to school today and still had some work matters to handle.
He had a gla.s.s of water in his hands and drank a mouthful of water. His tall, slim figure stood beside the work desk, and he switched on the computer.
At this moment, he heard someone knock. Knock, knock.
“Come in.” He looked towards the door.
The door of the study was pushed open, and the girl was holding onto a few books. She was gentle and fearful, and stood by the door elegantly.
Lu Shaoming’s eyes shook, and his entire body froze.
The girl was dressed in a beige s.h.i.+rt, and there was a cute blue b.u.t.terfly bow on her collar. She matched it with a red plaid short skirt; it was the look of a female university student.
Her luscious, black locks were tied up casually into a low plait, and strands of hair hung on her small shoulders. Her legs were long and straight. She had a pair of pink slippers, and she looked girly and youthful.
Lu Shaoming always knew that she was young, but he did not think she was so young.
Although they were so far apart from one another, Ning Qing could feel the man’s hot gaze scanning her body. She bit her lip, and said cheekily, “Shaoming, I am trying to do a test, but there are a few questions that I do not know how to approach. Can you guide me through them?”
