Xiao Li wasn’t aware of the subtle glance from the teacher. In her view, Qin Xiao might have a high status among students, but among the teachers, it’s probably just normal! What she didn’t know was that Qin Xiao held quite a unique position in the eyes of the teachers as well. Even her advisor was a bit surprised upon learning Xiao Li was Qin Xiao’s significant other. Since Xiao Li wanted to enter B City Medical University, she deliberately avoided mentioning she was Qin Xiao’s wife to avoid suspicion. After the teacher glanced at Xiao Li, class proceeded normally. Once class ended, Xiao Li left; she had another class to get to. As she walked to another classroom, she took out her phone to check messages. Near the end of class, her phone vibrated. She hadn’t checked it at the time, but now she quickly opened it. The message was from Qin Xiao, reminding her to drink warm water and asking how her stomach was. Having just parted not long ago, receiving Qin Xiao’s concern made Xiao Li feel sweet inside, instantly feeling like her discomfort had disappeared. Opening her thermos, she sipped the warm water inside, then took a selfie and sent it to Qin Xiao, "Uncle, I’ve obediently been drinking water, see the picture as proof! My stomach doesn’t hurt as much now, so don’t worry about me!" The moment Xiao Li’s message was sent, Qin Xiao replied instantly. "Pretty, but I wish I were the straw!" Suddenly flustered by Qin Xiao’s teasing, Xiao Li choked on the water she was drinking, coughing incessantly! After coughing, Xiao Li looked at the straw in her thermos, unsure of how to drink from it anymore. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥 Closing the cup, Xiao Li simply replied with two words, "Rascal!" Qin Xiao replied immediately again, "Yep, your personal rascal!" Seeing this, Xiao Li covered her eyes, unable to keep her composure! What kind of conversation is this? Why does it feel like she’s not chatting with her uncle, but with a little rascal? This style is nothing like how her uncle used to be, it feels a bit youthful! Ah! No, stop, Uncle is naturally young, don’t make it sound like he’s so old. Xiao Li felt she needed a moment, so she decided not to reply to Qin Xiao’s message and put her phone back in her bag, heading to class. Meanwhile, Qin Xiao was sitting at his desk, looking at the conversation on his phone, imagining Xiao Li’s expression—probably a mix of embarrassment, annoyance, and disbelief! Qin Xiao suddenly felt that teasing Xiao Li through chat wasn’t too bad. No wonder students in their passionate relationships love holding their phones. Campus romance, if it’s romantic, then it should be experienced. A knock on the door was heard, and Qin Xiao calmly said, "Come in!" Fang Heng came in with a data sheet, "Teacher, here’s the new data sheet." Qin Xiao reached out to take it but didn’t look at it immediately, still glancing at his phone. Why no response to the message? Class already started? It shouldn’t be; there’s break time between classes. Seeing the teacher looking at the phone, Fang Heng thought he was busy and said, "Teacher, I’ll head out first." Qin Xiao nodded, then called out to stop Fang Heng who was about to leave, "Fang Heng, when you’re dating now, what are the activities for a date?" Upon hearing Qin Xiao’s question, Fang Heng’s first reaction was to think back, wondering if he had ever delayed any task from the teacher due to dating? When a teacher asks, students should know to think beyond the question to find an answer, not foolishly believe the question is what it seems! Fang Heng reviewed in his mind, ensured he hadn’t missed anything because of dating, then quietly answered, "Teacher, I rarely date, and I won’t let dating hinder my studies." Though he had thought it over and realized he hadn’t delayed anything before due to dating, Fang Heng figured the teacher mentioned it for a reason. Although it hadn’t happened before, surely the teacher wanted to remind him, so Fang Heng immediately made a promise. Hearing Fang Heng’s words, Qin Xiao was speechless for a while, suddenly losing interest in asking him further. He waved his hand to let him go. After Fang Heng left, Qin Xiao went online to search, starting to eagerly catch up on dating practices! Neither Xiao Li nor Qin Xiao had experienced campus romance, and now, wanting to date Xiao Li, he had to cram. While researching, Qin Xiao’s heart beat fast with excitement! On the other hand, Xiao Li turned off her phone and went into the classroom. It was still early; the teacher hadn’t arrived yet, and there were only a few people in the classroom. Xiao Li reviewed the content of the upcoming class again. While she was looking down at her book, someone stood in front of her, "Are you Teacher Qin’s lover?" Hearing the voice, Xiao Li looked up at the person, a girl in her early twenties. Seeing Xiao Li looking at her, she immediately smiled, revealing two small dimples, giving a sweet impression when smiling. Xiao Li nodded, "I am. Do you need something?" The girl shook her head, "No, hi sister, my name is Yue Wenwen, I just wanted to see what Teacher Qin’s lover looked like? I had intended to be Teacher Qin’s student, but due to a full house, I didn’t get in!" When applying for graduate school, Yue Wenwen’s first choice was Qin Xiao, but she didn’t pass the interview. Actually, if you calculate her score, it wasn’t low, ranked fourth, it’s just that Qin Xiao only takes three students, so she had no chance! Xiao Li nodded, "So that’s how it is! Every teacher has a set number for taking students, it’s unavoidable." Yue Wenwen nodded, "I know, it’s just a little regret. Sister, is there anyone sitting next to you? Can I sit here?" Xiao Li nodded, "Sure! Go ahead!" Yue Wenwen sat next to Xiao Li, continuing in a low voice, "Sister, why didn’t you choose Teacher Qin as your advisor when you applied for grad school?" Xiao Li smiled, "Because it’s not the right field! I’m more suited to Professor Chen’s research direction." Yue Wenwen laughed, "So that’s it, even if sister didn’t choose Teacher Qin as an advisor, I’m sure Teacher Qin teaches you a lot on the side!" Xiao Li smiled and nodded, not saying more. The two weren’t familiar, and Xiao Li was naturally reserved, only politely chatting a few words with unfamiliar people. Seeing Xiao Li stop talking, Yue Wenwen didn’t continue either, quietly reading a book, though her thoughts had flown far away! With another class completed, Xiao Li’s courses for the day were done. Packing her things, Xiao Li left the classroom, followed closely by Yue Wenwen. "Sister, do you have any more classes today?" Xiao Li shook her head, "No, I’m going back soon." Yue Wenwen smiled, "I’m also done for the day, is sister heading back? Can I treat you to a cup of tea and chatter more?" Xiao Li shook her head, "Let’s chat another time if there’s a chance! I have something to do, goodbye."
