Extra Chapter: Zhang Qin: Only a kiss can soothe her.
Zhang Qin looked at Huo Huai Sui with a questioning gaze: "Have you been bewitched by Xie Qing Tang?"
Huo Huaisui: You're the one who's been cursed.
Zhang Qin: Then why are you being so attentive?
Huo Huaisui: If you're willing to tutor Ji Xiaomeng with her homework, I'll serve you tea and water.
Ji Xiaomeng and Xie Zhiyan are in first grade this year. Xie Zhiyan is fine; he is well-behaved, self-disciplined, and can think independently. Ji Xiaomeng, on the other hand, is a living encyclopedia of "100,000 Whys," with a lot of wild and imaginative ideas. Even her uncle, who dotes on her the most, avoids her when he sees her doing her homework.
Her grandparents couldn't teach her either. The little brat watched TV and scrolled through short videos all day long, and her head was full of jokes. The old folks couldn't keep up with her brainwaves.
In the entire Xie family, apart from her biological father whom she couldn't escape, only her all-knowing third grandfather and her incredibly patient eldest uncle had the patience to teach her to do her homework.
Xie Qingtang sat down next to Zhang Qin and casually asked, "Qinglan is away on a business trip?"
Zhang Qin buried her head in her food, not even glancing at Xie Qingtang.
"I'll be gone for three days." Huo Huai Sui looked at Xie Qing Tang expectantly. "Big brother, do you have time this afternoon?"
Xie Qingtang knew what Huo Huaisui was planning. "Qingxi has two days off."
Huo Huai Sui's eyes lit up. "Okay."
As long as she's not the one who gets angry, that's fine.
After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Huo Huaisui tactfully took his leave.
Xie Qingtang glanced at her watch. "Where do you want to go this afternoon?"
Zhang Qin sensed that he wanted to keep her company, and deliberately asked, "Professor Xie, don't you need to go keep your female college student company?"
Xie Qingtang paused, then raised an eyebrow. "Jealous?"
Zhang Qin tilted her head back and said, "Yes, a kiss is needed to soothe them."
She was certain he wouldn't kiss her in public.
After all, Professor Xie is easily embarrassed.
But to her surprise, Xie Qingtang actually pulled her over and gently touched her lips with his lowered head.
Although it was really light and fast, Zhang Qin was still so shocked that her eyes trembled violently.
Someone pinch her to see if she's dreaming.
If she wasn't dreaming, then Xie Qingtang had been possessed.
Is this Xie Qingtang? Is this Xie Qingtang?
Zhang Qin couldn't help but touch Xie Qingtang's forehead.
She didn't have a fever.
Xie Qingtang grabbed her hand, "Have you calmed her down?"
A few years ago, Zhang Qin would have been overjoyed.
Now… Zhang Qin looked at him with mixed feelings, thinking to herself that being pressured to get married really can drive a person crazy.
In his quest to find a wife, Professor Xie inevitably went mad.
"Hey, isn't that A-Yi's wife... his ex-wife?"
When the familiar voice came, Zhang Qin's heart sank, and the smile on her face vanished instantly.
A middle-aged woman walked towards Zhang Qin, arm in arm with an elderly woman.
Hey, it really is you.
The middle-aged woman glanced at Zhang Qin, then looked at Xie Qingtang with a scrutinizing gaze, her eyes lingering on their clasped hands. Her expression was extremely unsettling.
The woman who wants to die before she's even old is Zhang Qin's ex-husband Sun Yi's aunt, and the old woman she's holding hands with is Sun Yi's grandmother; neither of them are easy to deal with.
Zhang Qin instinctively stepped in front of Xie Qingtang, saying, "A good dog doesn't block the way, get out of the way."
The middle-aged woman frowned. "How dare you speak to your elders like that?"
“That depends on whose elder it is,” Zhang Qin sneered. “I’m a living, breathing person, I can’t expect to be respectful to a dog’s elder as well.”
The middle-aged woman was furious and wanted to speak again, but the old lady's sinister gaze fell on Xie Qingtang, and she spoke to Zhang Qin: "You divorced my grandson for this lover?"
