Professor Liu sighed deeply. His student was good in every way except that he was a little too dull.
He is not like other young people who like to play and make trouble.
How can you stay in school all day without any social experience?
Even going out for a trip is good.
Fortunately, her family seems to be pretty good, so she won't have to worry about making a living in the future and can get a doctorate in school.
Based on her grades, she can stay in school to teach in the future.
If I had some connections at home, I could live a good life.
"Teacher, I..."
Before she could say anything more, a note of absence was stuffed into her hand and she was kicked out of Professor Liu's office.
Not far from the office, Guan Lu was waiting for her.
"Is your foot okay?"
Guan Lu walked around her and was relieved to see that she was fine.
Tu Qingyu also cooperated with her and turned around in front of her.
"It's really okay now. It's just a twist, it's nothing serious."
"That's not serious. You don't even know how swollen your feet were at that time."
When she finished speaking, she leaned over and asked, "Guess what I photographed?"
"What?" Tu Qingyu was curious.
Guan Lu took out her phone and said, "Let me show you."
It was a photo of Ye Xingyuan holding her in his arms like a princess.
Only the side view and his exposed ankles were captured.
"Oh my god, this body shape and skin color are so bad, I really love it!" She stared at the screen with shining eyes, "I want to set this as my screensaver."
"No!" Tu Qingyu refused without even thinking.
"Why not? This is so beautiful."
"How shameful is this?"
"What's there to be ashamed of? You're an engaged couple, so isn't it normal to hug like this?"
"But I..."
"You don't even know how anxious the teacher was when Ye Xingyuan took you away."
"You didn't say anything?"
"What can I say? I can only explain to them that he is your fiancé."
"You, you are bad." Her face turned red and it took her a long time to utter the words "you are bad".
Guan Lu loved her so much that she couldn't help but reach out and hug her.
"Qingyu, you're back?" The two were playing around when suddenly a discordant voice came.
They stopped and looked to the side. Who else could it be but Xi Chuan?
Guan Lu was unhappy when she saw him calling her so intimately, "Our Qingyu has a surname, and we're not that familiar with you, so just call me Tu or my full name."
"I'm sorry." Xi Chuan's eyes flashed with an ugly look. "I'm sorry for being so abrupt. I heard that Qing and Tu were injured during the exchange meeting, so I wanted to ask if you're okay."
"I'm fine now, thank you for your concern."
He held out his hand and said, "This is a peace amulet I asked for at Baiyun Temple. I heard that the amulets there are very good at keeping people safe. I hope you don't mind, Mr. Tu."
Baiyun Temple is a Taoist temple in Yancheng that is famous for its efficacy.
The amulets in the temple are notoriously useful and hard to come by.
There is a ladder to heaven outside the Taoist temple, which has more than 900 steps. If you want the amulet in the temple, you have to start from the first step.
You have to kneel down slowly every three steps and light the first ten incense sticks before you can get this amulet.
Xi Chuan also did this in his previous life after the original owner had a fever.
I was really moved to tears at that time.
Unfortunately, Tu Qingyu is not the original owner.
"I'm so sorry, I don't believe in this." She took a step back. "But this is really thoughtful. My classmate can take it back to his mother. She will definitely be very happy."
Hearing her refusal, Xi Chuan showed a trace of sadness on his face.
"Is Mr. Tu really so repulsive? He won't even give me a chance?" His voice was a little hoarse, no longer as clear as before.
She frowned and thought for a while, and finally seemed to have come up with a good excuse, "It's not that I don't give you a chance, it's that I'm already engaged."
"engagement?"
"Yes, my family ordered it."
"But, what era is it now? How can you submit to your family's arrangements?"
Guan Lu couldn't stand listening to this. "My family's arrangements are not good. Is it better to fall in love with you?"
She thought Ye Xingyuan was a good person.
Although it was a bit absurd before, but in an upper-class marriage, who would care about chastity?
Not to mention the upper class, even nowadays there are a lot of ordinary men and women who are in love and living together.
As long as you treat Qingyu well in the future, that's enough.
"No, that's not what I meant." His face was full of concern. "Even if it's not me, it has to be someone you like. Life is long, how can you make such a hasty decision?
You are still young and haven’t experienced much. What if you meet someone you like in the future? "
He looked like he was doing Tu Qingyu's best.
Tu Qingyu just smiled and said, "My fiancé is very good. As for whether he will be good in the future, no one else will bother to worry about it."
"Others..." He murmured softly, looking very sad.
Tu Qingyu didn't have time to watch his performance, so she took Guan Lu and left.
He ignored Xi and Trump's hesitation to speak.
Xi Chuan looked at their receding backs, his eyes instantly darkened, and the amulet in his hand was so tightly grasped that it was deformed.
On the other side, in the Ye family’s old house.
Ye Xingyuan sat opposite his father and mother.
"Mom and Dad, I'm going to say this one last time. I want to cancel the engagement. If you don't show up, I'll go and cancel it myself. Don't blame me if things get too awkward."
Ye's mother asked again, "What you said last time...is it true?"
"Yes." Ye Xingyuan took out two business cards. "These are the psychologists who have treated me over the years. You can ask them about my specific situation."
He leaned back on the sofa, and when he said these words, he felt neither sad nor happy, and had a feeling of having given up everything.
"I didn't want to say these things, but you guys kept forcing me to get married, and I don't want to marry a girl and live with a guilty conscience for the rest of my life."
Ye's father and mother are not really heartless people.
After knowing their son's situation, they could not bring themselves to marry the other person's beloved daughter and live as a widow.
"But..." Ye's mother hesitated for a moment and said, "You can withdraw if you want. Otherwise, let's look at other girls."
Ye Xingyuan: ???
"Other girls are people too."
"You don't understand. We don't ask for that kind of family background. We just need to agree with her in advance and give her a few million every month. That way, you'll have someone who understands you in the future."
"Mom." Ye Xingyuan was a little helpless. "If you can only stay here if you pay money, how can you be a caring person?"
"Then, then what do you want us to do? Ah?" Ye's mother's eyes suddenly turned red, "When I think of you..."
