Chapter 72: Kick the brother bitch away and invite that gentle teacher to have tea (2) + (3)
Not long after the military training began, many students fainted because they could not withstand the intense exercise and were "honorably" sent to the infirmary. Generally speaking, this situation would decrease from the middle to late stages, but this year was an exception. Not only did the number of students going to the infirmary not decrease, but there were more than before. The reason was Li Ziyan.
"Doctor Li, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Teacher, how old are you this year?"
"Teacher, you are so beautiful. What do you like to eat?"
A group of boys and girls who came because of Li Ziyan's beauty surrounded Li Ziyan, and the infirmary was packed. Those who were originally too weak to stand up have now recovered their full energy and made their presence felt in front of Li Ziyan.
Li Ziyan was speechless for a moment, his cheeks flushed, he felt shy and embarrassed. He had never experienced such star-like treatment before. The eyes of the students around him were almost shining.
"You guys weren't sick..." His voice was helpless, and the ending tone was very light, but it stirred up a lot of excitement among the students.
"Ahhh! Doctor Li, your voice is so nice too!"
“So gentle!!!”
The girls' screams and the boys' admiring sighs filled the entire infirmary, and even scared Gu Chengze when he walked to the door of the infirmary.
He glanced at the text displayed on the light screen, made sure he hadn't walked into the wrong room, and walked in hesitantly.
"Doctor Li?"
"Teacher Gu!" Li Ziyan's eyes lit up when he heard Gu Chengze's voice, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw. While the classmates around him were stunned, he quickly slipped behind Gu Chengze.
Gu Chengze looked at Li Ziyan, who was hiding behind him with red ears and helpless eyes. He laughed in his heart and looked at the nonchalant students in front of him.
"It seems that you have recovered well. I remember that you are not allowed to escape during military training, right?"
Gu Chengze is also handsome, but his handsomeness is very aggressive and tough. Although wearing gold-rimmed glasses softens his temperament, the aura around him has not diminished in the slightest.
What's more, he had a badge unique to military academy teachers hanging on his chest. The students in the infirmary didn't dare to say a word, let alone flatter him. They just said hello and goodbye and fled out of the infirmary.
Seeing that the room was empty, Li Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief, left from behind Gu Chengze, and thanked Gu Chengze with a blushing face.
"Thank you, Teacher Gu. If you hadn't come today, I wouldn't know what to do."
Gu Chengze smiled, also quite helpless, with a comforting tone in his voice, "It's okay, these kids are really out of line, I've never seen anyone tease a teacher like them."
"No, they are just a little enthusiastic..."
Gu Chengze couldn't deny it. In fact, he kind of understood what those students were thinking. Just like him, he hadn't actually had any contact with Li Ziyan since the last time he met him, but this person left a particularly deep impression on him. As soon as he returned to school today, he came to the infirmary unconsciously, as if he had been bewitched.
"It's already noon, why don't we go have lunch together, Dr. Li and He Ye?"
"Of course, I'm treating you as a thank you!"
Li Ziyan agreed with a smile, without avoiding Gu Chengze, and turned around to take off his white coat. He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers underneath, showing off his superior figure.
The thin waist and long legs make people happy just by looking at them. And the long hair tied up high, with the ends of the hair swinging flexibly at the back of the waist, adds a bit of liveliness to the person in front of you.
The two of them went to a restaurant near the school. The Empire had used its best efforts to restore some of the recipes from the ancient Earth era, so the taste of the food in these restaurants was quite satisfactory now.
Li Ziyan did what he said. As soon as he entered the restaurant, he handed his star card to the waiter and ordered food generously. His generous demeanor formed a very cute contrast with his appearance, which made Gu Chengze laugh and he couldn't help but feel closer to them.
"Teacher Gu, thank you so much today!"
"It's just a word, don't take it so seriously, not to mention you've already treated me to a meal," Gu Chengze pushed up his glasses and propped up his head with one hand. He had beautiful eyes, and when he smiled at others, it gave the illusion of deep affection. But now, the emotion in his eyes was sincere. "Don't call me Teacher Gu anymore, just teach me my name. Aren't we all friends?"
Li Ziyan was stunned for a moment, nodded, pursed his lips slightly, his eyes filled with longing and a hint of emotion.
"Chengze, you are the first friend I have ever met. That's great."
The guide's voice was filled with sincere emotion, but what he said left Gu Chengze a little stunned. First friend? He couldn't help but think of the guide's dejection and helplessness when they first met. A strange feeling arose in his heart, like a mixture of heartache and touch.
"It would be nice if I could eat out with you more often in the future."
"Of course I can."
Li Ziyan smiled, with two little rabbit teeth resting on his lips, which was so cute that Gu Chengze couldn't control his laughter.
“Drip—drip—”
The communicator sounded, Gu Chengze looked at Li Ziyan apologetically and answered the call.
"Xiao Han, it's not very convenient for me to eat here at school. Can we do it next time?" Gu Chengze frowned slightly, not knowing what the person opposite him said, but there was helplessness between his brows. "It's really not very convenient. I'm having dinner with a friend. Hello——"
The call was hung up. Gu Chengze sighed into the communicator and rubbed his forehead. Li Ziyan had been paying attention to the dynamics on his side. Seeing that he seemed a little helpless, he spoke cautiously.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"
"Nothing, just my friend wanted to come over to see me."
"Oh, has he eaten? If he doesn't mind, let him come and eat with us. The dishes haven't been served yet." There was no dissatisfaction on Li Ziyan's face, and his eyes were full of sincerity. Gu Chengze felt a little warm in his heart.
The person who just called him was a good friend of his, who insisted on coming over to have dinner with Gu Chengze. If it were any other time, it would be fine, but today it was Li Ziyan's treat, and Cheng Han insisted on coming and getting involved, which was rude of hers. Fortunately, Li Ziyan was understanding and didn't make a fuss.
Not long after, the door of the restaurant was opened and a girl with pink hair walked over. After seeing Gu Chengze, she jumped on Gu Chengze and gave him a big hug.
Li Ziyan raised his eyebrows, and an alarm sounded in his heart and 007's heart.
"Aze! You don't miss me?!"
"No, get down first, Xiaohan," Gu Chengze said helplessly, pulling Cheng Han off him and keeping a suitable distance. "If your fiancé saw this, I wouldn't be able to explain myself."
Cheng Han frowned slightly, but did not resist anymore. Gu Chengze pulled her to sit on the seat.
"Xiao Han, this is Li Ziyan, my colleague now. Ziyan, let me introduce you, this is..."
"Hello! My name is Cheng Han, and I'm Chengze's good friend!" Cheng Han said this while hugging Gu Chengze's shoulders intimately. Although her tone was cheerful, Li Ziyan could clearly see hostility and showing off in her eyes.
"Hello, nice to meet you." Li Ziyan tilted his head slightly, revealing a kind smile, pretending not to notice the vigilance flashing in the girl's eyes.
Gu Chengze couldn't see Cheng Han's expression or eyes, but he could see Li Ziyan's smile. Seeing that he smiled sweetly and didn't show any dissatisfaction at all, his liking for Li Ziyan increased a little bit.
The restaurant's dishes were served quickly. Although Cheng Han had long pink hair and looked like a delicate little princess, she was very bold and not polite at all when eating. On the contrary, Gu Chengze frowned slightly when he saw Cheng Han's intimate attitude and her unrestrained look towards him.
Li Ziyan behaved very well, eating in a gentle manner, with graceful movements, as if he had an innate elegance and nobility.
"Eat slowly," Gu Chengze looked at the girl next to him with a helpless expression, secretly widening the distance between them.
"Oh, I'm really hungry," Cheng Han pouted, looking like she was acting coquettishly. There was a trace of soup on the corner of her mouth, so Gu Chengze took out a tissue and handed it to her.
"Look at what you're eating. It's all on your mouth."
Cheng Han didn't take it, but moved closer and said, "Help me wipe it."
Gu Chengze was a little dissatisfied for a moment, frowned, and put the paper on the table, "Wipe it yourself, you are not a child anymore."
"Just wipe it yourself." Cheng Han pouted, looking somewhat dissatisfied.
Li Ziyan was sitting opposite the two of them, taking in the entire scene. He lowered his head, trying to avoid suspicion, which made Gu Chengze feel a little embarrassed.
Because of Cheng Han's presence, the three of them didn't have a comfortable meal. Li Ziyan couldn't get a word in, and he wasn't the type of person who wanted to disturb others. The two people sitting opposite him were so close, and he didn't have the heart to disturb their time together.
"Teacher Gu, I think the school still needs me there, so I'll leave first." The familiar address changed back to Teacher Gu, which made Gu Chengze feel a little lost.
"Then...then I won't see you off."
"It's okay." Li Ziyan smiled and looked at Cheng Han again, "Goodbye, Miss Cheng."
"Goodbye, Doctor Li." Perhaps because Li Ziyan was so tactful, Cheng Han's attitude was not so confrontational, but the vigilance in his eyes did not decrease in the slightest.
Only after Li Ziyan walked away did Gu Chengze's face darken and he looked at the people around him, "Xiao Han, what are you doing today?"
"What's wrong with me? I just came to play with you! You haven't replied to my messages these days, and now I come to see you and you're still bothering me. Do you still consider me your brother?" Cheng Han looked dissatisfied and said it as a matter of course.
"We are good friends, but Xiaohan, things are different now. You already have a fiancé, and I'm just afraid that your fiancé will misunderstand."
"No, the innocent are innocent. We are just good friends. He wouldn't be so unreasonable." Cheng Han waved his hand with a smile on his face. "By the way, when did you meet Doctor Li just now? He's quite good-looking. Are you attracted to him?"
Cheng Han's words diverted Gu Chengze's attention. Thinking of Li Ziyan's well-behaved appearance just now, the dissatisfaction between his brows dissipated a little, but his tone remained the same as usual.
"Don't talk nonsense, we are just colleagues."
"I see. I think Dr. Li has a good personality. I'll come and play with you guys in a few days!"
"Everyone is very busy at the beginning of the school year. Your family must be preparing for the wedding too. Don't be willful." Gu Chengze pulled his hand out of Cheng Han's arms. "I have to go back to school too. Call your boyfriend to pick you up."
"...No need! I can go back by myself! You go and get busy!" Cheng Han's expression twisted for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. He smiled and waved at Gu Chengze, "Alright, alright, Teacher Gu, you can go back soon!"
During the daytime, the empire's public security has always been good, and Gu Chengze did not casually take on responsibilities that did not belong to him. "Well, then I'll be leaving first."
Cheng Han watched Gu Chengze's back gradually walking away, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and finally turned into unwillingness, his eyes full of possessiveness.
All of this was naturally beyond Gu Chengze's knowledge. After returning to campus, the first thing he did was to go to the infirmary and find Li Ziyan sitting there reading a book.
"Zi Yan, did I disturb you?" Gu Chengze stood at the door, his tone and eyes were apologetic. The boys in the room quickly stood up, looking a little flattered.
"Teacher Gu, come in quickly." Li Ziyan went to meet him and shook his head. "Why would I bother you? I'm so happy that you're here."
"I'm glad I didn't disturb you." Gu Chengze pushed his glasses and sat down opposite Li Ziyan. After a moment's deliberation, he said, "Ziyan, I'm sorry for what happened just now. Cheng Han has always been carefree. I didn't expect her to come over so suddenly."
"It's okay! Cheng Han is very cute, and dining is more lively when there are more people around!" Compared to Cheng Han's willfulness, Li Ziyan is much more obedient. Looking at the other party's gentle smile and understanding expression, Gu Chengze couldn't help but think of what Cheng Han had just said.
There was one thing she was right about, Li Ziyan was really beautiful, with that kind of gentle beauty that came from her agility.
Gu Chengze's eyes were gentle as he took out his communicator. "If Ziyan doesn't mind, would you be willing to exchange contact information with me?"
"Of course!" Li Ziyan was naturally happy to agree. The two added each other as friends and chatted for a few more sentences. They found that their personalities were surprisingly compatible and even their hobbies overlapped.
"I didn't expect you to look so young, yet have read so many books," Gu Chengze taught history. His family was also a scholarly family, so he naturally respected and admired people with literary literacy. "If there's a chance, Ziyan can come to my class."
"Really? That's what I wish for!" Li Ziyan smiled brightly, with anticipation and excitement in his eyes, which made Gu Chengze's heart soften.
"Of course it's true, but don't laugh at me when the time comes."
The two smiled at each other. Although they had only known each other for a short time, they were extremely familiar with each other's existence and breath, and even the way they got along was particularly harmonious.
Because their apartments were not on the same route, after get off work, Gu Chengze sent Li Ziyan onto the aircraft before calling a taxi and leaving.
But he didn't go home. Instead, he went to a unique and quiet bar, sat at the familiar bar, ordered a glass of wine, and enjoyed his time alone.
