Qiu Miao: General Gu is such a good man! Meow~

The old principal said he would introduce another gardening master to Qiu Yanping, and then he went back to his office to find the contact information hidden in some corner. Qiu Yanping looked up at the bright sunshine. It was noon, and he smacked his lips twice. It was time to eat something. Apart from anything else, the fried dried fish in the cafeteria was really delicious.

Qiu Yanping walked towards Gu Wenye's office. If he wanted to have lunch, he had to use Gu Wenye's teacher card. Qiu Yanping regretted that he had forgotten to ask the principal to help him get a temporary meal card. The principal would definitely be able to handle this little thing.

While he was secretly lamenting that he had missed an opportunity, he searched for Gu Wenye. He caught a student passing by and asked, "Where is your teacher Gu?"

"Ah, I'm not sure..." The student shrank his neck like a timid rabbit, and then turned around and left.

Qiu Yanping touched his face in confusion. He looked like a strict dean? The kind who caught students' little tricks and punished them severely? Why did he run away when he saw him?

Qiu Yanping walked around the office building but couldn't find anyone, so he had to run outside. As mentioned before, the college was very large, and it was even more difficult to find someone you were not very familiar with. Qiu Yanping curled his lips and wondered whether it would be faster for him to go to the old principal to ask for a temporary meal card or to go to Gu Wenye to get a free meal.

He looked up at the principal's building where the old principal was. It was quite far from where he was. He paused for a moment and walked towards the old principal while looking for Gu Wenye.

"Hey, kids, have you seen your teacher?" Qiu Yanping called out to another student while walking. The student had a baby face and a thin body, and looked like he was just over 15 or 16 years old. Qiu Yanping simply called him "kid" and asked with a pursed mouth.

"General Gu is in the garden over there. I just saw him." The student replied, not at all dissatisfied with being given a nickname by Qiu Yanping. Qiu Yanping looked at him twice more. The child had delicate features, broad eyebrows, a high bridge of the nose, and a very regular appearance. It was the most regular face he had ever seen. It could be seen that the future was extremely smooth and proud. Qiu Yanping smiled and said, "Thank you. What's your name?"

"The leaves are rising."

Qiu Yanping nodded slightly, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He said, "Ye Qiyang, this name is very good. The word Yang represents a newborn ox, which means good luck and a bright future. Remember, everything changes, but I remain unchanged. That is the great success. If my heart is open and I am upright, everything will be promising."

Ye Qi Yang was stunned for a moment, blinked and looked at Qiu Yanping. It was probably the first time he heard someone say such mysterious words, and he was unable to react for a moment.

Qiu Yanping smiled, and without waiting for Ye Qiyang to respond, he headed in the direction he said. What was Gu Wenye doing in the small garden at this time of meal? He wondered in his heart.

Ye Qiyang looked at Qiu Yanping's back and realized that he should say thank you. Was that person... praising him and blessing him...?

When Qiu Yanping found Gu Wenye, he was sitting in a wheelchair under a big locust tree. Although it was autumn, the scorching sun was fierce. Gu Wenye half-closed his eyes, as if he was taking a nap. He looked extremely tired, and his slightly long eyelashes cast a small piece of fine and dense shadow under his eyelids. The clear and sharp jawline made him look like a contradiction of determination and fragility.

As soon as Qiu Yanping approached, he noticed that he seemed to be asleep, so he planned to turn around and leave so as not to disturb his sweet sleep. However, he did not expect that Gu Wenye had already noticed his arrival. The man opened his eyes and called him, "Mr. Qiu? Why are you here? Are you here to see me?"

Qiu Yanping turned around, feeling a little embarrassed—especially since he had soiled someone else's hand towel—he coughed lightly and said with a sense of guilt that he was not even aware of, "Did I wake you up?"

"I wasn't asleep at first." Gu Wenye smiled and pushed him in the wheelchair to Qiu Yanping. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at Qiu Yanping, "Mr. Qiu, what can I do for you?"

Gu Wenye was sure that Qiu Yanping came to see him because there was nothing special and worth seeing in this place. Qiu Yanping came here because he asked someone to find him. In the whole college, Qiu Yanping was familiar with him, except for the old principal. Qiu Yanping could only come to see him. Gu Wenye curled his lips with a smile in his eyes, which made people relax involuntarily. Qiu Yanping coughed and looked away. He was embarrassed to look at Gu Wenye. He said, "I'm hungry. I want to borrow your meal card. Let's go to lunch together?"

Gu Wenye laughed dumbly, nodded, and said with a smile, "It's almost time. I was careless and forgot to come to you. I'm sorry."

After hearing what Gu Wenye said, Qiu Yanping felt relieved. He said, "It's okay, it's okay. I'll ask the principal to get me a temporary meal card one of these days so I don't have to bother you every time." As soon as Qiu Yanping said this, he felt like he had picked up Gu Wenye's sour speaking style.

"No trouble." Gu Wenye's smile faded a bit, and he continued, "But it will probably take a few days for the old principal to issue a temporary teacher card. This kind of card is more delicate and takes some time."

Qiu Yanping frowned when he heard this. He could only stay here for a few more days. How many days would it take just to get a card? Maybe by the time the card was ready, he would be ready to leave. Then what was the point of him getting a card?

Thinking of this, Qiu Yanping turned around with a flattering smile on his face, "Is that so? Then I may have to trouble you every day in the future."

"No trouble." Gu Wenye smiled more sincerely and said it again.

Qiu Yanping ordered almost four plates of fried dried fish. After finishing one plate, he sent the dish-serving robot to bring back another. Gu Wenye looked at the CDs piled up in front of him, and then at Qiu Yanping's quick and clean eating manner. He looked like he had finished four large plates of dried fish and was about to continue eating. He looked so dignified and elegant that he didn't look like a big eater at all.

Seeing that Gu Wenye didn't move his chopsticks, Qiu Yanping raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why don't you eat?"

"Still waiting for the little robot to bring the food up." Gu Wenye said. He suddenly remembered something, straightened his face, and said seriously, "By the way, there is something I want to tell you. This morning we saw two finger bruises on Wang Ge's throat, but when I saw him just now..."

"The mark is gone?" Qiu Yanping asked back, not seeming surprised at all. He wiped his mouth and saw Gu Wenye's eyes slightly widened, but his face was still trying to calm down, like a cat that gets easily irritated but always maintains a cool look. Qiu Yanping didn't know the breed of cat, so he couldn't name it.

Oh, it's a little cute.

Qiu Yanping was thinking, what would the prototype of the journalism industry be like...

"You may not understand this." Qiu Yanping thought about his words and said, "How about this, I will talk to you in detail when we get back to the dormitory. There are too many people here, so it's not convenient."

Gu Wenye paused, remained silent for two seconds, then nodded slightly, "Okay."

"By the way, what did you order that made you wait so long? It should taste good, right?" Qiu Yanping changed the subject and asked without blinking, staring at the dish-serving robot that was flying over with the plate.

"…baked fish in gravy."

"Can I have a taste?"

"Please feel free to do so."

“…It’s really delicious.”

Gu Wenye saw Qiu Yanping staring at his plate of food with shining eyes, smiled, and pushed the dish in front of Qiu Yanping, "You eat first, I'll order another one."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, thank you." Qiu Yanping smiled at Gu Wenye, and then enjoyed Gu Wenye's braised fish without any embarrassment at all.

General Gu is such a generous and kind man.

In the eyes of the locals, Qiu Miao may be like a charlatan (lunatic)_(:зゝ∠)_
