Chi Shuyan didn’t know what Qin Qing was thinking at that moment. When she was in front of Shi Ran, she saw that he had heard the commotion and was about to turn around and leave. She reached out and pressed down on his shoulder, and her lips curved up. “Are you free? Can we chat?”
Shi Ran subconsciously trembled when the other party touched him. When he looked up and saw who it was, his face grew paler, but he calmed down a little and wiped his face.
Chi Shuyan saw that his face was covered in sweat, as if it had been dunked in water. He looked scared out of his wits. She narrowed her eyes. It had only been a while after he left the restaurant, but there was a trace of black qi on him. It was obvious that he had encountered something. Seeing him not reply for a long time, she said, “Can we talk when you have time?”
Obviously not interested in chatting with her, he pried her hand off and was about to leave.
Chi Shuyan curled her lip. “Aren’t you going to tell me what happened? You look like you encountered something unclean!”
As soon as Chi Shuyan said that, Shi Ran’s face changed drastically. He paused and suddenly turned around. Chi Shuyan clearly saw the mix of shock, alarm and panic in the other party’s eyes. Because he was too terrified, his expression twisted for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure. However, his face was very pale and he didn’t speak for a long time.
Seeing that the other party didn’t plan to speak, Chi Shuyan didn’t force him anymore. She took out a talisman. It just so happened that she had bought some pens from a shop earlier. She wrote her phone number on the talisman and handed it to the other party before she left. “This is my phone number. If you need anything, you can contact me. Of course, you can also throw this thing away if you don’t believe me.”
Chi Shuyan handed him the talisman, and this time, the other party accepted it. When he took the talisman, Chi Shuyan flicked away the trace of black qi on him without batting an eyelid. She turned around and left without saying anything else.
As Chi Shuyan left, she felt a probing gaze on her back, and she curled her lip.
When she reached the school gate, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Qin Qing wasn’t there. She raised her wrist to look at the time, then picked up her pace as she headed to class.
Because it was still the first semester, the workload wasn’t heavy, but in the end, it was a prestigious university, and had more classes.
After four classes one after another in the afternoon, school ended.
Before she left, Counselor Zhang specially beckoned her over. Chi Shuyan walked over and called out, “Counselor Zhang!”
Counselor Zhang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she had come to class. He patted her shoulder and told her to study hard, then invited her over to the Zhang residence for dinner.
She spoke familiarly with Counselor Zhang. To be honest, Chi Shuyan really liked this counselor. However, she had just gone to the Zhang residence last time, and it wasn’t good for her to keep going over, so she found an excuse to refuse.
“Child, there’s no need to be polite with me. Xiaoyang always wants to see you!” Seeing that she really had something on, Counselor Zhang could only say, “Okay, then I won’t force you. Come to my office any time you’re free at noon this week. I’ll catch you up on the work you missed!”
Chi Shuyan knew that Counselor Zhang meant well, so she could only nod in agreement and thank him again.
“Shuyan, I think you’re Counselor Zhang’s favorite student. Look, he likes you so much! Are you related to his family?” Yang Lan suddenly spoke up.
Soon, Yang Lan switched topics to the fact that Chi Shuyan wasn’t staying in the dormitory anymore. She was quite disappointed and couldn’t help but say, “Why don’t you stay in the dormitory? It’s so lively!”
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Yang Lan answered her own question. “Okay, I understand. President Qi is more important!”
