Chapter 161 Her Boyfriend's Mother
While having dinner with Dan's mother and Dan Si, the two didn't engage in any overtly intimate gestures, though their eye contact was undeniably subtle and suggestive.
Looking at the people present, Gu Ji felt a slight pang of regret that Guan Xiang hadn't been admitted to the school. Just as she had estimated, she was a few points short of the required score for the violin major at Nan'an University.
Fortunately, they were accepted into the art university next door. Their schools weren't too far apart, so they could often meet up and hang out together.
"Zhaozhao, you'll be considered my student from now on," Dan's mother remarked.
"Huh?" Gu Ji was slightly surprised. Dan Mu was a professor in the Chinese department, but she taught Chinese literature. How could she be teaching her?
Danmu smiled gently, "There are some connections between different majors, so I teach some of your classes."
Gu Ji nodded knowingly, a hint of nervousness rising in his heart.
If Danmu were simply her grandmother, she would definitely feel good about it, but now she has another hidden identity.
Her boyfriend's mother.
She had a feeling that she wanted to make a good impression on her boyfriend's mother, which made her nervous and a little scared.
Dan Anwen had obviously thought of this problem as well, and gave Gu Ji a reassuring look.
Gu Ji sighed inwardly, deciding to take it one step at a time.
Anyway, she's her grandmother now.
Thinking this, Gu Ji said to his mother, "Then I hope Grandma will take good care of me in the future."
Mother Dan gently tapped Gu Ji's forehead and said with a smile, "I won't give you any special treatment, and your grades don't need any special treatment anyway."
Both knew the other was joking, since with their abilities, they had no need for back channels.
But in the days that followed, whenever Dan's mother appeared on campus with Gu Ji, she would introduce Gu Ji to the professors in her major courses, trying to make him a familiar face.
This relationship provided Gu Ji with some opportunities in certain aspects.
Having ability is one thing, but another thing is to let the teacher know you exist, otherwise all your brilliance will be overshadowed.
After dinner, Dan Anwen had no reason to stay at school to date Gu Ji, so she could only send Dan's mother back to Dan Garden.
Gu Ji and Dan Si also returned to their respective dorm rooms.
When Gu Ji returned to the dormitory, his two remaining roommates also arrived.
Just as Gu Ji had imagined, Ji Wanmiao was quiet and gentle, and looked like a well-behaved girl who loved reading.
Tian Ya's appearance is quite different from her name. She has a neat short haircut and looks very cool. Song Jin kept admiring her looks.
The girls chatted for an afternoon and then went to the cafeteria for their first dinner together in their dorm. A friendship quickly formed between them.
Considering they had military training the next day, they didn't chat for long, but instead went to bed, scrolled through their phones for a while, and then went to sleep.
Uncle Dan: Are the kids asleep yet?
Child: Not yet.
Gu Ji glanced at the time; it was almost midnight.
Dan Anwen sat at his desk working. He had sent the message to the little girl on a whim, because without her at home, he felt the house was empty.
I can't believe she's still awake at this hour; she usually goes to bed around 11 p.m. at home.
Uncle Dan: I miss you.
Gu Ji could inexplicably sense a sense of grievance and pity in Dan Anwen's words.
Kid: (Pats head) We can meet again after military training.
Dan Anwen's slender fingers paused on the screen, and she curled her lips into a smile.
Who said we can only meet after military training is over?
Although Nanan University has strict management of personnel entering and leaving the school, it was incredibly easy for him to get in.
He originally planned to move his family directly to the school, since his mother's faculty apartment at the school was empty, so it would be perfect for him to move in.
However, considering that the children would still have to live in the dormitory, he put the idea aside.
After all, Jinshan Villa is very close to Nan'an University, only a 20-minute drive away, so there's no need to move the family to the school. You can see your children anytime, anywhere.
Even when there are no classes, the child can go home, and we can just send her back to school before 11 p.m.
He hadn't told her about this idea yet; he planned to use some tricks to coax her home later.
No dorm is as good as home!
Dan Anwen: Do you miss me?
Gu Ji's face instantly turned red. She had often told Dan Anwen that she missed him, but this was the first time she had done so on WeChat.
Today was a fulfilling day, but his face still pops into my mind from time to time, especially at night.
For the past two years, except when the man was socializing or on business trips, they spent most of their evenings together.
Child: I miss you too, but I can only bear it.
Dan Anwen: Did you wear headphones?
Gu Ji was puzzled; why was the topic changing so quickly?
Child: Yes, I'm wearing it.
The next second, the man made a video call.
When Gu Ji answered the phone, the first thing he saw was his handsome face. The light shone on his strong brow bone, outlining his features.
Gu Ji finally saw the man's handsome face clearly, and her longing for him was relieved.
However, Dan Anwen could only see the dark surroundings around Gu Ji, and the outline of her face was blurry; only her eyes were clearly visible.
The dormitory lights were already off, and Gu had hung up blackout curtains, but she hadn't installed a bedside lamp, so it was pitch black.
Dan Anwen sighed softly, her voice low and tinged with grievance, "I can't even see the child's face."
Gu Ji opened his mouth as if to speak, but then remembered that someone was already asleep, so he typed a message to Dan Anwen instead.
Kid: I'll let you see as much as you want tomorrow, don't be sad.
After sending it, Gu Ji saw Dan Anwen's expression on the screen. Dan Anwen smiled, his thin lips curled up slightly, and his voice was deep and magnetic, "Little friend, you have to make it up to me tomorrow!"
Gu Ji nodded in the darkness, and after realizing that he couldn't see clearly, he typed a reply to him.
The two chatted for more than half an hour before Dan Anwen remembered that she had military training the next day and told her to go to sleep first.
Just as Gu Ji was about to hang up the video call, the man interrupted her, saying, "Little kid, don't hang up. I'll hang up after you fall asleep."
Although Dan Anwen couldn't see her face clearly, he still wanted to work while listening to her breathing.
Kid: Okay, but you have to go to sleep too.
Gu Ji blinked in the darkness. Although most of the faces on the screen were men, she could tell that he was still working in the study.
Dan Anwen lowered her eyes and said, "Okay, I'll go to sleep now."
As he spoke, he picked up his phone and walked towards the master bedroom.
Gu Ji closed his eyes and went to sleep only after seeing him lie down on the bed.
"Goodnight, little one." Before Gu Ji's consciousness faded, he heard a man's voice in his ear.
Gu Ji murmured something in his sleep.
Dan Anwen rested one hand on her head, quietly listening to the steady breathing coming from the video, a smile on her lips as she closed her eyes.
