Chapter 33 Oh no! Someone's trying to steal my sister-in-law!
【Hehe, no need, Xiaxia, my internship resume was accepted, and the company will arrange accommodation for me.】
In the second semester of their junior year, students can choose to do internships independently or join the school's internship program.
Shen Tongtong submitted her resume to An's company, and she was prepared to be rejected.
An Shixia looked at the text message she received, a slight smile playing on her lips, and replied: [Congratulations, I passed too, we can be colleagues again.]
An Shixia hadn't told Shen Tongtong her true identity yet, so she decided to go back to school and tell her in person.
*
In the past few days, Jiang Zhiyao has been in a bad state, and she subconsciously avoids An Shixia every time she sees him.
Sun Xueman, who had always been on good terms with her, also began to have some reservations about her, as she was always alone during and after class.
An Shixia came to her elective class with Shen Tongtong today and saw Jiang Zhiyao and He Huaisheng walking together from afar.
An Shixia chose the elective course to pursue He Huaisheng. In the past, she would always pester He Huaisheng to sit next to her in class.
This time, however, she chose the place furthest away from He Huaisheng.
"Brother Sheng, will I never be able to play the piano again?"
Jiang Zhiyao's pent-up frustration from the past few days finally erupted when she saw He Huaisheng; she was truly terrified.
He Huaisheng's gaze fell on An Shixia in the distance. She seemed unaffected by the public opinion and even had a playful smile on her face when she spoke to Shen Tongtong.
He was stunned and did not answer Jiang Zhiyao's question.
Jiang Zhiyao followed his gaze and immediately began to sob, pulling He Huaisheng back to his senses.
"Yaoyao, don't worry, as long as An Shixia doesn't pursue this matter, there's still room for maneuver."
Besides, Elder Mu has now accepted her as his disciple. As long as she talks to Elder Mu properly, you'll be fine.
Jiang Zhiyao cried intermittently. Her grades weren't very good to begin with, and all the resumes she sent out were rejected. If she couldn't play the piano anymore, she really didn't know what to do.
He Huaisheng put his arm around her shoulder comfortingly and placed the book in his hand on the desk: "Yaoyao, don't cry. Sit here and wait for me. I'll go find An Shixia and ask her to put in a good word for you."
Jiang Zhiyao really didn't want him to come, but for the sake of her future, she had no choice but to endure it.
"Brother Sheng, go ahead and talk to her properly."
Jiang Zhiyao's eyes held a hint of pleading.
He Huaisheng nodded and reached out to ruffle her hair: "I'll go now."
He said this as he walked towards An Shixia's direction.
Several classmates kept glancing at He Huaisheng, wondering what he was going to do.
Wu Yang yawned as she entered the classroom. Before she could finish yawning, she saw He Huaisheng, took out her phone, and sent a message to Yan Lingyu.
[Brother Yu, something terrible has happened! Someone's trying to steal your wife!]
After sending the message, he didn't linger and sat down directly behind An Shixia.
“An Shixia, you…”
As soon as He Huaisheng spoke, An Shixia's smile vanished, and she frowned: "Is there something you need?"
Seeing her rapid change in expression, He Huaisheng's heart clenched: "Why did you delete me?"
Wu Yang listened intently from behind while reporting the situation to Yan Lingyu.
"Delete it if you want, what else is there? It's nothing, just don't block my way."
An Shixia's tone was cold, so cold that He Huaisheng felt a chill in his heart.
Does she not care about herself at all now?
He Huaisheng pursed his lips: "An Shixia, I apologize for my previous attitude. I shouldn't have treated you that way. Can you forgive me?"
An Shixia paused for a moment, then looked up: "I received the apology, but I don't forgive you."
The two were not speaking loudly, but it was enough for the students next to them to hear.
"What's wrong with School Heartthrob He? Could it be that he regrets it? Did he only realize he liked her after she stopped pursuing him?"
"Ke An, the school beauty, and Yan, the school hunk, eat together every day. Doesn't that mean they're officially together?"
He Huaisheng's face turned very pale as he listened to these words, as if something of his had been stolen from him.
An Shixia likes him so much, there's absolutely no way he could be taken away by someone else.
"I've converted all the gifts you gave me into cash and given them to you, but there's one thing you left with me. If you're free, I'll wait for you by the lake after class this afternoon."
He Huaisheng stared at An Shixia. He knew she would agree. That thing was very important, and An Shixia always treasured it. If it weren't worthless, he would have sold it too.
An Shixia recalled what she had given him, and then she remembered: a peace charm.
She prayed for it when she and Yan Lingyu went to the temple; it was something she only wanted to give to He Huaisheng.
"Okay, I'll come find you after today's class."
Wu Yang paced anxiously behind him, silently praying that Brother Yu would come quickly.
Perhaps his prayers had worked, for Yan Lingyu finally appeared at the classroom door.
A dark glint flashed in He Huaisheng's eyes. Why was he here?
Humans are indeed quite strange; they don't cherish things that are readily available.
But once you manage to snag one, you'll cherish it dearly.
In the past, when An Shixia came to him willingly, he only felt annoyed. Now that An Shixia is playing hard to get, he is starting to care.
What brings you here?
An Shixia's gaze fell on Yan Lingyu, her face beaming with delight.
He Huaisheng looked gloomy. Not wanting to lose face, he hurriedly walked away and returned to Jiang Zhiyao's side.
Yan Lingyu had run there; a little sweat was on his forehead, but his breathing was very steady.
"Someone said you're going to be robbed, so I came to check."
Yan Lingyu sat down directly next to An Shixia, glancing at Wu Yang behind him.
An Shixia followed her gaze and saw a large face lying on the table.
I was so focused on pursuing He Huaisheng that I never paid attention to which classmates were in the class. I never expected that Wu Yang would also choose this course.
"Good morning, sister-in-law!"
Wu Yang greeted him quietly.
Yan Lingyu heard that he did not correct An Shixia's form of address and watched his reaction.
An Shixia did not refute him, but returned his smile and said, "Hello."
Wu Yang immediately perked up, picked up the book and asked An Shixia, "Sister-in-law, I don't quite understand what the teacher said in the last class. Can you explain it to me?"
Before An Shixia could answer, Yan Lingyu gave him a look and said, "Ask me if you don't understand anything."
Wu Yang chuckled awkwardly. He wouldn't dare, but since Brother Yu had said so, he would be bold this time. He turned to the previous lesson's content in the book and pointed to a question: "This, I don't quite understand."
"Is such a simple question even worth asking? Wu Yang, I'm starting to doubt your professional competence."
Wu Yang shrank back: "Only you think it's simple..."
An Shixia found it somewhat amusing: "Ling Yu, he asked, so why don't you answer him? I'd like to hear it too."
An Shixia only calls him Brother Yu in private; when there are many people around, she calls him Ling Yu.
Yan Lingyu answered without hesitation, "Okay."
