Chapter 306: Slippery Talk
During the following week, Qing Yanrou was extremely busy. Her schoolwork became more demanding, and the owner of the Soul-Soothing Nail had not shown up yet, so she ignored him and focused on completing her homework.
Friday is coming soon.
"Rou Rou, bye, see you on Monday."
"See you Monday."
Qing Yanrou never stayed in the dormitory on weekends. She had told the counselor about this before. Because the special department had contacted him last time and gave him some special reasons, the counselor allowed her to stay out of the dormitory on weekends.
Chu Tingbai got off work at 5 o'clock, took 40 minutes to get to the gate of B University, and bought a cup of hot milk tea to wait for her.
After waiting for less than ten minutes, I saw Qing Yanrou walking out of the school gate.
When she saw the man holding milk tea, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she walked towards him.
"Yes... yes... I'm sorry."
Suddenly, she was bumped by someone, but she reacted quickly and reached out to hold the girl who bumped into her and was about to fall.
The girl who bumped into Qing Yanrou had a high ponytail, her eyes were lifeless like a pool of stagnant water, and her face was covered with countless pimples and some pit marks.
Somehow, she suddenly remembered the freshman girl that Han Nianlu and the other two had talked about on Monday.
"fine."
As soon as Qing Yanrou finished her words, the girl bowed to her again apologetically and left.
"Are you okay?"
There were a lot of people around just now, and the distance between the two was quite far. When Chu Tingbai walked up to her, the girl had already walked away.
"It's okay, wait for me."
After Qing Yanrou finished speaking, she trotted towards the girl.
Chu Tingbai didn't understand, but when he saw the gray aura on the girl, he roughly knew what she wanted to do.
A helpless smile appeared on his lips, his eyes filled with doting, he shook his head and followed.
"Hey, classmate, wait a minute."
The girl in front didn't stop, so she had to reach out and pull the strap of the large black backpack on the girl's back.
"I'm Qing Yanrou, a sophomore in the Journalism Department. This is for you. It has my phone number on it. You can call me if you need anything."
The girl turned around and saw her, thinking that she had bumped into something. A trace of panic flashed in her lifeless eyes. Before she could say anything, she heard the female voice in front of her introduce herself.
Looking at the bright yellow paper she handed over, it looked a bit like the talismans in the zombie movies I secretly watched as a child.
She took the bright yellow paper with a string of numbers written on it, not knowing what was going on.
"Remember, you can call me if you have anything, anything."
Qing Yanrou said to her with a bright smile. There was a hint of spiritual power in her words, which went straight into the girl's heart.
Looking at Qing Yanrou who had already walked away, she lowered her head to look at the bright yellow talisman in her palm, and a confused look appeared on her face.
She thought about it and put the talisman in her pocket.
After all, this was the first time someone took the initiative to introduce themselves to her and the first time someone handed something to her.
Although it was just a piece of paper with a phone number on it, it was enough to make her very happy.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
When the girl heard the phone vibrating in her pocket, her hands trembled and panic flashed across her face. Although she was reluctant, she still picked up the phone.
Because she knew that if she didn't answer the phone now, she would only be waiting for endless calls and text messages, which would be troublesome to the counselor.
"Hey, Mom..."
"Jiang Zhizhi, why are you answering the phone now? Your last class today ends at six o'clock. You should be on your way to the cafeteria right now. You have plenty of time to answer the phone.
But your phone rang four times just now and you didn't answer it. What were you doing? Do you think you've grown up now that you're in college, huh?
"Mom, I..."
"No need to explain. I'll give you fifteen minutes to eat. Twenty minutes later, I want you to study in the library. Seriously, you're already so old, and you still need my personal supervision.
That's it. I'll video call you in 20 minutes to supervise you."
“Beep, beep, beep—”
The woman opposite spoke a barrage of words in one breath, not giving Jiang Zhizhi a chance to explain.
When she heard the call had been hung up, she felt both relieved and aggrieved, but then she remembered that she only had fifteen minutes to eat, so she quickly gathered her emotions and trotted off to the cafeteria.
......
"Sent it out?"
"I can't hide it from you again?"
Chu Tingbai handed her the milk tea that he had been warming with his spiritual power, took her other hand and walked towards the school gate.
Qing Yanrou took a big sip of the warm and sweet milk tea, glanced at him and said with a smile.
"Qingqing knows that girl?"
He did not respond, but continued to ask.
"I don't know her. I heard Lulu and the others talking about her. She has such a strong aura of decay. I'm afraid she'll do something stupid."
When Qing Yanrou talked about this, her delicate eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and her teeth were unconsciously gnawing on the straw in her mouth.
"Didn't you give me a tranquility talisman? It should come in handy at a critical moment."
Chu Tingbai couldn't bear to see her frown, so he reached out and rubbed her furry head, comforting her softly.
"You even know what I gave you?!"
Qing Yanrou didn't have the mind to think about Jiang Zhizhi at the moment, but looked at the person in front of her with a slightly frown.
They were clearly so far away, yet he could still see clearly what talisman he had given.
"You are now a master. I have nothing left to teach you. How about you be the master and I be the apprentice?"
She let go of the straw in her mouth and stared at someone with a smile in her sparkling peach blossom eyes.
"Well...it doesn't seem to work. I'm a person who respects teachers very much. Once a teacher, always a wife."
Chu Tingbai was just teasing her on purpose, and sure enough, when she heard the first good word, the hand he was holding turned around and gradually exerted force.
But as soon as I changed the subject, the strength in her hand dissipated again. When I finished the last word, she quickly removed the straw and the milk tea in her mouth almost choked her.
“Cough cough cough——”
"Are you okay?"
Seeing her coughing up tears and the corners of her eyes turned red, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged and couldn't understand her reaction.
But seeing how uncomfortable she looked, I felt a little guilty. I shouldn't have said these things while she was drinking.
"Where did you learn such glib words? You said them well, but don't say them next time."
Chu Tingbai's face froze, and he coughed twice and said, "Those were my words from the bottom of my heart."
Qing Yanrou glanced at him, indicating that this was not credible.
He put his other hand into his suit pants, and when he touched his cell phone, he wanted to take it out right away and delete all the browsing history on it.
