As she descended the steps, her teeth clenched tightly, a strange feeling stirring within her.
She realized that Wen Zhaonian was a very vengeful person.
Finally, as she descended the last step, Li Tangyan couldn't help but stomp on the ground a few times.
Afterwards, as a soft sigh fell to the ground, I felt much better.
At the same time, Li Tangyan's phone rang in her bag.
Li Tangyan glanced at the name on the list, and soon, the annoyance in her heart dissipated considerably in that instant.
When he spoke again, his tone was more relaxed.
[Teacher Xing, why did you suddenly decide to call me?]
[You mentioned going back to X city before, right? It's the weekend tomorrow, so how about we come over for dinner when you get there?]
Teacher Xing's real name is Xing Mingming. She was Li Tangyan's teacher when she was studying at X University.
The two had always had a good relationship, so even after graduation, whenever Li Tangyan returned to X City, he would go back to see her from time to time.
For her, Xing Mingming was much closer to Li Tangyan than Wu Chang.
So when Xing Mingming called to ask, Li Tangyan quickly agreed.
After hanging up the phone, I looked up at the sky and instantly felt that the sunlight was not so dazzling.
Then, she hummed a little tune, and her little steps became much more cheerful.
Meanwhile, as she moved forward, the buildings behind her gradually receded into the distance.
The figure hidden behind the half-closed window gradually became blurred.
When Zheng Chuanyi pushed open the door and came in, Wen Zhaonian had just turned his gaze away from the window.
What are you looking at?
Zheng Chuan leaned over to take a look, but found nothing special outside the window, which instantly piqued his curiosity.
The image in my mind, which had been stomping its feet in place but then cheered up after answering a phone call, was scattered as Zheng Chuanyi's voice came through.
Her long, curled eyelashes fluttered, and as the dappled sunlight streamed in, a thin shadow fell beneath her eyes.
His eyes deepened, and his voice grew slightly lower: "It's nothing."
He sat back down, his fingertips just about to touch the pen beside him, when he seemed to suddenly remember something and looked up at Zheng Chuanyi.
"I'm going back to X City tomorrow."
"?"
"I received a phone call last night."
"?"
"My mom asked me if I was thinking of abandoning my family and parents because I haven't come home to visit for so long."
"..."
Zheng Chuan felt a strange sense of incongruity watching Wen Zhaonian say such funny things with such a serious face.
But then he thought of his mother, and his expression changed in a moment, his smile becoming rather irritating: "I think Auntie's real intention isn't what it seems, she wants to introduce you to someone else?"
As she spoke, she remembered that she had been free of this kind of pressure for several months, and her expression became even more pathetic: "How pitiful, it's a pity that I can't feel this kind of pressure anymore."
"Zheng Chuanyi".
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Zhaonian's voice slowly came over.
Zheng Chuan nodded, and the moment he looked up, before he could even wipe the smile off his face, he met Wen Zhaonian's clear and sharp gaze.
His voice was low and slow, carrying an invisible pressure.
"Are you asking for trouble?"
"..."

When we arrived in X city, the sky outside was dark and gloomy, as if a heavy rain was about to fall.
As soon as Li Tangyan came out, the strong wind outside had already blown a few strands of her hair.
Li Dahai wouldn't have any expectations for her return, so Li Tangyan never planned to go back directly in the first place.
When they got into the car, they asked the driver to go in the opposite direction, following the address Xing Mingming had given them.
Back in school, Li Tangyan had heard from her classmates that Teacher Xing's family was well-off and she didn't have to worry about food or clothing, but she didn't know exactly what her husband did.
It is said that she only went out to work because of her own hobby and because she didn't want to be idle.
When Li Tangyan heard this, she just took it as a joke and moved on.
Unexpectedly, when I actually arrived at Teacher Xing's current residence, I found that the jokes I made back then were not only true, but also made me seem quite modest.
Yaoyi Yuefu is a well-known villa area in X City.
Those who can live here are either rich or noble.
Not long after Li Tangyan pressed the doorbell of the courtyard gate, Xing Mingming quickly pushed the door open and came out.
A few strands of white hair that had appeared with the passage of time were tied back on her head with a jade hairpin, and she was also wearing a thin camel-colored shawl, making her look elegant.
"Ayan's here, come in quickly."
"Teacher looks even more beautiful~" When Xing Mingming came out, Li Tangyan had already tilted her head and glanced at her, pretending to be surprised.
Upon hearing this, Xing Mingming tapped her nose, and when she felt the slight coolness of Li Tangyan's fingertips, she gave her a reproachful look and said, "When did you arrive? You didn't even say so, so I could have sent someone to pick you up."
"Wasn't this meant to surprise you? How about it, teacher, are you happy?"
"happy."
"..."
Not long after Li Tangyan and Xing Mingming entered the room, a muffled clap of thunder sounded outside, and soon after, a heavy rain began to fall outside the French windows.
Large raindrops pounded on the glass, quickly sliding down the windowpane in streaks of clear water.
"Have some hot water to warm yourself up first."
Xing Mingming poured Li Tangyan a cup of hot water, then her gaze fell on the window.
Looking at the torrential rain outside, a soft "ouch" escaped her lips, followed by Xing Mingming's quiet muttering: "This rain is really heavy..."
