Shen Qingmang returned to his rental house drunk that night. Under Qi Xiao's slightly worried look, he closed the door, slowly slid down, and sat on the ground.
She felt dizzy. She seemed to have never drunk so much wine before. Moreover, no matter how she drank the wine today, it tasted bad. She seemed to have the impression that there was a kind of delicious wine that made her lips and teeth fragrant. After having the chance to drink it, she felt that all other wines became bland.
Why were there so many chaotic memories coming back lately? Was she feeling too stressed out teaching the senior class? Now that she had nearly three months of vacation, she should take care of herself.
Shen Qingmang held her head and rubbed her temples. Her phone slipped out of her pocket. The screen lit up for a moment. She looked at the message notification on it, feeling a little disappointed. "Why is this kid so silent?"
Five minutes later, she suddenly remembered that she had blocked both of Gu Sui Han's accounts, and the other party could not contact her at all.
But... he can ask his parents for her cell phone number.
"You're such a child. You ignore me when you're upset. I have to take action." Shen Qingmang stood up with the help of the shoe cabinet at the door, walked unsteadily to the sofa, leaned back, squinted his eyes and let out a long sigh.
A moment later, she removed Gu Suihan's two accounts from the blacklist and sent a friend request.
In less than two minutes, the account belonging to Gu Sui Han's real identity approved her request. Shen Qingmang raised the corners of her mouth and made a voice call.
"Teacher?" Gu Suihan's voice was very low on the phone.
"Yeah, it's me. You're awake, aren't you?"
"Of course not. But my parents are asleep, so I can't speak too loudly. Can you hear me clearly?"
"Yes, I'm not deaf." Shen Qingmang scratched his ears. "I'm going to ask you a question, and you must answer me truthfully."
"Are you asking me about my volunteer application? I won't change my mind."
"It's not this problem, it's another one."
"Anything else?" Gu Sui Han asked softly.
Shen Qingmang licked his lips and said, "Why do you like me?"
All she could hear on the other end of the line was the other person's breathing. She reached for the kettle on the coffee table and poured herself half a glass of water.
I drank so much at night, why am I still thirsty?
After she had drunk half of it, Gu Suihan spoke: "Because you are the brightest light in my life, I like you as naturally as everything likes the sun."
"Eh—why is this so corny? Can't you just be a little more simple, a reason I can understand?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"Of course it's to...evaluate the rationality of us being together."
Shen Qingmang's voice was filled with laughter. It took the other party a long time to react, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Are you...are you serious?"
"Yeah, when have I ever lied to you?"
"Then, then, then... then you agree to be with me?"
"No, I want to hear you clearly express why you like me, and weigh the weight of your feelings before considering whether to put my weight on it. So you'd better answer seriously."
"Then, teacher, can you give me a reference answer? How should I express my love for someone clearly?"
Shen Qingmang was stunned by the question. Her mind was a mess and she couldn't think straight. After hesitating for a while, she said, "Just...be more specific, don't be so vague. For example, do you like the other person's appearance, personality, or something else?"
"I like both your appearance and personality," Gu Suihan said without hesitation. "I also like the cute way you dance with joy when you get excited in class, and the way you carefully write encouraging messages in the upper right corner of the blackboard every day..."
"These are all as a teacher..." Shen Qingmang murmured.
Gu Suihan continued, "And when we were chatting, you mentioned the delicious food in the cafeteria that you always missed, and you kept sending me exclamation marks. I asked you some questions that I didn't even understand the meaning of, and you answered them seriously, even compiling a document and sending it to me. All of this touched my heart."
"Then your heart is too broad." Shen Qingmang's voice was softer than before.
"So it's better to give a general summary like before, otherwise it will take three days and three nights to finish."
"Okay, okay, I get it. But I'm curious, how did you manage to pretend to be my underclassman without revealing any flaws? Not only did your class schedule sound very real, but you also took a lot of photos of our school. You really look like a normal college student."
"It's because I added a real junior from your alma mater, paid for him to drink milk tea, and borrowed a lot of photos from him."
"You really put a lot of thought into it."
Gu Sui Han couldn't see Shen Qingmang's expression, and didn't know whether the other party was sincerely praising him or sarcastically, so he could only say that it was nothing.
"Since you have worked so hard, as your teacher, I should give you some rewards," said Shen Qingmang.
"What reward?" He held his breath.
"What do you want?"
"I have a lot of things I want, but if I tell you, you might think I'm greedy."
"It's okay. What are you afraid of if we're talking on the phone? Even if I'm really unhappy, I can't get into your phone and call you."
"Then I want you to agree to let me apply for Qingchu University of Science and Technology."
"That's it? Didn't you say you've made up your mind? Why do you care whether I agree or not?"
Gu Suihan said seriously and solemnly: "Because I hope my choice will gain your respect and blessing."
"Okay, I won't interfere with your application process anymore. Since it's your own decision, don't blame others even if you regret it later."
