Chapter 285 Fleeing in Disarray
So what is Lin Xiaotao, who is considered to have many powerful backers, doing at this time?
She was secretly urging Xiao Peichuan to go out and have fun.
After all, ever since Li Sheng'er's incident, Professor Song had been keeping an increasingly close eye on her. She was constantly bombarded with endless lessons and exercises. While learning new knowledge was very rewarding, it inevitably led to complacency over time. Besides, this wasn't medicine, which she loved, so she couldn't resist the urge to escape.
"Anyway, let Xiao Da and Xiao Er keep an eye on things, and then we'll go out and have some fun."
Faced with such an eagerly anticipated person, what could Xiao Peichuan say? Of course, he agreed.
“I knew Pei-chuan was the best.” Little Peach Blossom laughed, her eyes narrowing.
"Little peach blossoms are the best too."
Little Peach Blossom was even happier.
When Xiao Da and Xiao Er arrived, they grabbed the people and ran away.
Professor Song: ...
He came here to find himself alone.
Where is Lin Xiaotao?
Xiao Da and Xiao Er looked at the ceiling and the floor but not at Professor Song.
After all, they had witnessed firsthand how difficult Professor Song could be.
Professor Song scoffed, "Don't think I don't know just because you're not looking at me. You sneaked off, didn't you? Do you even want to graduate?"
Xiao Da: "Although Lin Xiaotao is a genius, we can't keep holding onto her forever, Professor Song. Everyone needs to relax sometimes, don't you think?"
"Relax, she seems to know exactly what she's doing. Don't think I don't know, that stuff is a piece of cake for her!"
Is this a compliment or a sarcastic remark?
Xiao Da and Xiao Er glanced at Professor Song.
Professor Song ignored the two men and left.
He muttered to himself as he walked, "This is outrageous, outrageous."
"Big brother, are you really alright?" Xiao Er looked at Xiao Da.
"Nothing could happen, nothing will happen."
"Indeed, although I know that the professors value Lin Xiaotao, I still feel exhausted every time I see such heavy tasks."
Xiao Da glanced at Xiao Er but didn't say anything.
"It's better to go out and relax."
Xiao Da nodded: "That's better."
"But I didn't expect Lin Xiaotao to have such a background," Xiao Er sighed.
However, this matter did indeed shock Xiao Da and Xiao Er.
They thought their young master was very capable, but now it seems they were wrong.
Don't let the fact that Xiao Taohua's parents are minor leaders in a small town fool you; they are no ordinary people.
It's impossible for an ordinary person to have so many powerful figures endorsing Lin Xiaotao; it's simply unthinkable.
Moreover, they observed that those big shots were only interested in Lin Xiaotao, while the others didn't seem to care much.
No matter how hard we investigate, we can't find out why.
It turned out that some of the big shots came from the Xiaolin Village production team, and some of them had good relationships with people from the Xiaolin Village production team.
It seems there's a slight connection.
But it's so strange that so many people from Xiaolin Village are on good terms with Lin Xiaotao. There must be something they don't know.
There were many things I was curious about, but I didn't ask either of them.
As I said before, if they want to know, they will know; if they don't want to know, they'll pretend they know nothing.
Even Master Pei-chuan didn't ask about this matter, so naturally they, as servants, wouldn't either.
"Having a powerful background is also a good thing, as it makes it more legitimate for her to be with the young master," Xiao sighed.
Although they were grateful to Xiao Taohua because of Xiao Peichuan's health and had no objection to the two being together, who wouldn't want Xiao's daughter-in-law to be even more capable?
To be realistic, the Xiao family doesn't care, but outsiders will definitely want to see them make a fool of themselves.
Now, that joke is completely gone.
There's no way around it; people always live within the complexities of human relationships and social interactions. Unless you're a god, who can escape these things?
Little Peach Blossom, who is completely clueless about social etiquette: ...
Fine, she doesn't know anything anyway, since someone is clearing the way for her.
It's a good thing to be a simple person your whole life.
Little Peach Blossom and Xiao Peichuan had a blast playing outside all day, and they were all smiles when they got home.
Xiao Peichuan's health is getting better and better. Although he can't do strenuous exercise, he can still walk slowly with her.
The following days were naturally filled with Professor Song's close surveillance, followed by Xiao Taohua's resistance, and so on, in a never-ending cycle.
Then, summer vacation will begin.
Then, Little Peach Blossom was about to graduate.
My roommate was completely shocked when he first heard the news.
"You said you'd graduate just because it's a holiday?" Feng Ran's voice cracked, showing just how shocked she was.
"Yes, didn't I tell you?"
Feng Ran remained silent.
She was certain she had never heard of it.
Even now, hearing about it is shocking.
"Ah, I don't think I've mentioned it before." Little Peach Blossom thought that she was with Xiao Peichuan every day and didn't seem to have talked about these things with her roommate, but it was still not too late to say it now.
"What are your plans for graduating early?" Huang Ying asked.
"No, it's just that the professor wants me to join the research institute."
Feng Ran and Huang Ying: ...
"Actually, I didn't want to go in at all. I wanted to go back to my hometown, but the professor insisted that I couldn't!"
Fortunately, they didn't live to see the future, otherwise this would definitely be a massive Versailles scene!
Both of their expressions became unnatural.
They have just started university and will have three more years to graduate.
Lin Xiaotao, on the other hand, not only graduated three years earlier than them, but also got into the research institute, a place they could only dream of.
Perhaps people are just different.
The two looked at Lin Xiaotao with complicated expressions: "Congratulations."
"Yeah, you guys keep it up too."
"Then what about you and Xiao Peichuan?"
“Yes, we’ll have the wedding when we go back during summer vacation!” Little Peach Blossom was even happier when she said this, after all, graduating early meant getting married early: “Pei-chuan and I have agreed that after the vacation we will go back to his hometown first, and then he will come to my hometown to propose marriage, and then we can prepare for the wedding. Actually, we originally planned to go back to my hometown first, but Pei-chuan said that if we get married, it would be better to go back to his place first, since he doesn’t want me to suffer from going back and forth.”
Feng Ran and Huang Ying: ...
They no longer wanted to listen to Little Peach Blossom.
"Okay, that's good. Little Peach Blossom, Huang Ying and I congratulate you in advance, but we probably won't be able to go."
"It's okay, I don't mind, it's so far after all."
"Okay, Huang Ying and I have class, so we'll be going now."
"Goodbye." Little Peach Blossom waved.
Feng Ran and Huang Ying practically fled.
Once they left the dormitory, the two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They used to be able to get along with Xiao Taohua as ordinary roommates, but later Xiao Taohua got a boyfriend, and since they were not in the same major, they gradually became more and more estranged.
Logically, since they were all in the same dorm, they should have given a wedding gift to Xiao Taohua. However, they were not on the same path to begin with and might never cross paths again in the future, so neither of them wanted to give a gift and could only flee in embarrassment.
Feng Ran: "I still have a question I don't understand. I'll go ask the professor."
Huang Ying: "Okay, I'll go to the classroom to study first."
Neither of them wanted to look at each other at that moment.
Then, coincidentally, the two of them left in opposite directions.
Little Peach Blossom, who was happily anticipating meeting her parents after summer vacation, had no idea what was going on.
Of course, even if she knew, she probably wouldn't think much of it.
It's normal not to be close to someone you're not related to.
