Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhang Hanyu did not manage to get in touch with Dou Xiangling for an entire day and he suddenly felt a little uneasy. He decided to make a trip to the School of Science and Technology to look for Professor Dou
Zhiyuan.
However, when he arrived downstairs at the dormitory lobby, he saw a courier.
There were mailboxes right outside the dormitory staircase and Zhang Hanyu subconsciously took a look. He noticed that the courier was opening the mailbox for 505 and so, he walked over. “I am the resident of 505,
you can pa.s.s me the package.”
As soon as the courier heard what he said, he turned around and pa.s.sed the package to Zhang Hanyu before he took his leave.
Zhang Hanyu looked at the courier envelope in his hand. He originally wanted to check who the sender was, but only to discover that there was only the recipient’s address written on the envelope. There was no
sender’s address.
He shook the envelope and it should be a paper or something of the sort in it. He did not have much doubt about the contents and opened the envelope where he was standing.
There were a few photographs in the envelope.
Before he even saw the photographs, his heartbeat somehow sped up and an ominous feeling surged forth.
It just so happened that there were the sounds of footsteps behind him and shortly after, someone came over to greet him.
“Teacher Zhang, why are you standing there?”
Zhang Hanyu subconsciously shoved the photos, which he had yet to see, back into the envelope and clamped it into a book. He turned around and faced the person. “Oh, it’s nothing. I just recalled that I forgot to bring
something and I was about to go back to get it.”
He headed towards the dormitory apartment after that.
When Zhang Hanyu returned home, he quickly took out the photos. The moment he saw what the photographs were, his expression changed greatly.
The photographs were of him and stuff that was not known to anyone.
He quickly flipped through the photographs and sure enough, there was a piece of paper in between them.
On the piece of paper, the following words were written: Leave Teacher Dou, or else I will expose you.
Zhang Hanyu’s hand that was holding onto the piece of paper shook uncontrollably. He quickly searched for all the portraits of the men he drew previously and found a lighter to burn all the photos in his hand.
After he finished burning the canvases, he stood there with his eyes hanging down. There were no sorts of emotions on his face. There were neither emotions of anxiousness nor anger. He remained standing for a very
long time before he took out his phone and called the school.
“Director Chang, I am going abroad to gather inspiration… Yes, I am going to partic.i.p.ate in the painting contest in Country H next month. I don’t think I will have time to teach the students anymore… alright then.”
After hanging up the phone, he was not in a rush to pack his luggage. Instead, he got rid of all the ashes and wrote a note for Dou Xiangling and placed it on the table. He then gave a call to a female teacher who was
rather close with Dou Xiangling before he packed his belongings and left.
When Zi Yi and Lu Jingye found Dou Xiangling and Dou Zerui, the both of them were currently chatting with the photography team for their wedding photos.
One of the photographers said, “Second Young Master and Miss Zi’s appearances far surpa.s.ses those of anyone I’ve seen. I feel that there would be excellent results even if they casually stood there for me to take a
photo of them.”
Dou Zerui and Dou Xiangling had a smile on their faces upon hearing what the photographer said.
“That’s right. My cousin has inherited all her parent’s good genes and she is very beautiful.”
The photographer smiled and nodded in agreement. At the same time, he said, “Mr. Dou and Miss Zi are also very handsome and beautiful.”
Just then, Dou Xiangling noticed Zi Yi and Lu Jingye, who were walking side by side and heading in their direction. She called out to them “Little Lu, Yiyi, you’re here.”
Zi Yi walked to Dou Xiangling and asked, “What are you chatting about so happily?”
“We were saying that you’re beautiful.”
“You’re very beautiful too.”
Dou Xiangling’s eyes curved into crescent moons when she heard the praise.
Dou Zerui purposely pretended to be jealous and said, “You only praised Xiangling. Aren’t I handsome too?”
Zi Yi gave him a sideways glance and did not give him any face as she said, “You’re not as handsome as Ah Jing.”
Dou Zerui said, “…I should not have asked that question.”
“Hahaha…”
A wave of laughter sounded.
After everyone had their laugh, Dou Xiangling asked, “Yiyi, are you going to continue painting today?”
Zi Yi revealed an expression of rejection. “I don’t want to paint anymore. I painted a few paintings yesterday and I’m so tired.”
Her words immediately attracted Dou Zerui’s supercilious look. “I’ve never seen anyone who paints as fast as you. Xiangling paints one painting in one and a half days but yet, you have painted three paintings in an
afternoon. It’s no wonder that you got tired so quickly.”
ot to mention that the paintings she painted were all top-notch.
To be honest, Zi Yi was not tired at all. She just did not feel like painting anymore.
Dou Xiangling had painted together with Zi Yi a few times and how could she not know that she was just being lazy? She merely said with a smile, “Then I’ll paint on my own. There are too many beautiful sceneries here
and I want to paint another painting of the distant mountains.”
“You’ll have to head outside the hot springs villa for that. It would be cold if you leave here.” Dou Zerui disagreed.
Dou Xiangling said, “I’m not afraid of the cold.” As long as she was painting, she would not feel the surrounding temperature.
Dou Zerui was about to continue dissuading her.
Zi Yi thought about it and said, “I have a way to keep you away from the cold.”
Everyone looked at her and she turned to Lu Jingye. “Ah Jing, where did you put my toolbox?”
“In the yard where we are staying.”
Zi Yi turned to Dou Xiangling and said, “I’ll prepare a thermal generator for you and you won’t feel cold wherever you go.”
She then left to grab her toolbox.
Lu Jingye, Dou Xiangling, and Dou Zerui followed behind her.
“Do you need me to help with anything?” Dou Zerui was rather curious about her thermal generator and so, he casually asked.
“Just pepare a parasol for me. The villa should have one.”
Zi Yi returned to the courtyard where they lived and took out a few parts from her toolbox to fiddle around with. Soon, she had created a generator that was around the size of two hands.
“It’s done.”
The three of them looked at the machine next to her feet. Dou Zerui asked with a skeptical att.i.tude, “Yiyi, can this thing that you made really gather heat?”
“Of course. Move this to where Xiangling is going to paint and ask the boss of the villa for a parasol in pa.s.sing.”
Even though Dou Zerui still had his doubts, he still rolled up his sleeves and carried the machine, and made his way outside.
Zi Yi said to Dou Xiangling,b”You can go and grab your painting tools. As for the place, you can find any location that you prefer.”
Dou Xiangling nodded. “I’ll paint at the roadside outside the entrance of the hot springs villa.” Having said that, she headed towards the courtyard she was staying at.
Zi Yi and Lu Jingye waited for her outside.
Soon, Dou Xiangling came out with her painting tools. Lu Jingye took it from her, while she and Zi Yi walked in the front.
Dou Xiangling suddenly asked, “Yiyi, can you contact the people outside with your phone?”
Zi Yi knew why Dou Xiangling had asked her that and she said, “If you can’t it’s most likely that it’s because it is snowing heavily these two days and the signal in the mountains isn’t the best.”
Dou Xiangling nodded her head. “That’s right. I couldn’t get a signal on my phone, and it’s the same for my brother’s phone.”
Speaking of this, she asked with slight embarra.s.sment, “Yiyi, since your phone only has a bad signal, can you lend it to me so I can make a call?”
“Who are you planning to call? Teacher Zhang?”
Dou Xiangling nodded slightly while biting her lips. “I sent him a message when I left and I haven’t been able to get in touch with him after arriving here. He would definitely be worried.”
“Did you tell him that you came here?”.
