Chuchu yawned and slowly got up from the bed. Her hair was still a little messy and her eyes were a little confused, as if she was not fully awake yet.
She pulled the quilt beside her and gently covered Zhu Zhu who was still sleeping, for fear of waking up the girl in her sweet dream.
There were still a few undried tear marks on Zhu Zhu's face. Chu Chu wiped them away gently with a tissue with heartache, muttering to herself that humans are too sentimental.
After doing all this, Chuchu suddenly felt as if she was emitting a maternal glow all over her body. She shook her head, trying to get rid of this sudden sense of responsibility, then turned and walked to the closet and changed into her cartoon bear pajamas.
This pajamas is her favorite. Every time she puts it on, she feels like she has turned into a cute little bear, and her mood inexplicably improves.
Walking out of the room, Chuchu immediately saw Su Rong lying on the sofa in a daze. He had his eyes tightly closed, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was still troubled by the dream he had just had.
She was about to cast a spell to send Su Rong back to his own residence, but unexpectedly he woke up at this moment.
Su Rong rubbed his eyes, pinched his eyebrows, and looked at Chu Chu with a confused look, "Are you okay? I remember I came here after hearing the screams. How did I end up sleeping here? I don't remember anything that happened afterwards."
Chu Chu raised her eyebrows, feeling a little amused. This guy was really confused. She shrugged and said, "I don't know. Anyway, you fell asleep, and I was embarrassed to chase you away."
Su Rong was even more confused after hearing this. "Why don't I remember anything? You cast a spell on me, right? Forget it. Even if I ask you, you won't tell me what happened before."
Chuchu looked at Su Rong's innocent face and suddenly felt a little sorry for him. To be honest, she also felt that Su Rong had done nothing wrong from beginning to end, but she just had some inexplicable resistance to him. So, she decided to tell him the truth, but she didn't want to make things too serious.
"Well... a ghost possessed you just now, and I just drove it away, so your memory is damaged. But, they are all minor problems, don't worry." Chu Chu said, patting Su Rong's shoulder, trying to comfort him.
When Su Rong heard this, she was so shocked that she almost jumped up. "Why me? Why did he choose me? What does he want to do by possessing me?"
Chu Chu rolled her eyes helplessly, "How would I know why? Maybe I chose you just by chance. But why should I explain so much to you? You should go back quickly, Su Shao. This is my home."
Su Rong stood up helplessly and walked towards the door.
Chuchu followed him and prepared to close the door to send him away: "Mr. Su, let me remind you again, don't come to my house again in the future, okay? You are causing me a lot of trouble now, do you know?" Chuchu said with a bit of dissatisfaction and helplessness on her face.
Su Rong heard this, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. "Okay. Good night. But I also opened a bottle of wine. Do you want to have a drink before leaving?"
Chu Chu closed the door without hesitation and rolled her eyes at him. "Who are you familiar with? Go away and stop bothering me."
…
On Monday morning, sunlight filtered through the leaves, dappling the paths of the college, adding a touch of liveliness and vitality to this ordinary day. Chuchu walked briskly into the classroom. As soon as she opened the door, she felt an unusual atmosphere. Students gathered in groups of three or five, whispering quietly, their faces filled with a mixture of excitement and curiosity.
"Have you heard? A new professor has arrived at the college today. He is not only young and handsome, but also a postdoctoral fellow!" A clear female voice came into Chuchu's ears. It was Song Nuan, one of her good friends who was always passionate about new things.
Chuchu smiled as she walked to her seat and sat down. Just as she was about to take out her textbook, Song Nuan impatiently came over, her eyes twinkling. "Chuchu, have you heard? The new professor is super handsome. He's a bit like Su Rong, but more calm and generous than him. He also has an indescribable ethereal air."
Chuchu heard this and a playful smile played on her lips. She thought to herself: "Fairy-like?" This adjective is quite creative. However, she didn't show it, just nodded slightly, indicating that she understood. Then, she quietly activated the magic within her body and peered through the gap in the crowd towards the classroom door.
At that moment, a hint of surprise flashed in Chuchu's eyes. Wasn't that Rong Lin standing at the door? He was wearing a well-tailored suit and gold-rimmed glasses, appearing both elegant and graceful, completely different from the cold and aloof image of the Heavenly Lord.
"Not surprising." Chu Chu muttered in her heart, "How can the Heavenly King not be handsome? The Golden Qilin is recognized as the most handsome man in the six realms for hundreds of thousands of years." Although she had expected it in her heart, she couldn't help but sigh when she really saw Rong Lin's appearance when he came down to earth.
Song Nuan, Zhu Zhu, and other female students were even more excited, applauding and cheering as if they had seen some rare treasure. Rong Lin smiled and introduced himself in his charming voice, "Hello everyone, I am the new professor. My surname is Rong, and my given name is Lin."
For a moment, the classroom was in an uproar. The girls were discussing Rong Lin's handsomeness and temperament, and some even began to imagine the beautiful stories that might happen between them. Chu Chu sat quietly aside, watching everyone so enthusiastic and excited, a faint smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, that smile was filled with a bit of helplessness and ridicule.
"Chu Chu, why aren't you surprised at all?" Song Nuan noticed Chu Chu's abnormality and asked curiously.
Chu Chu shrugged and smiled, "It's okay. I've seen it so many times, so I think it's just like that." She knew that as a member of the celestial realm, she was already accustomed to handsome men like Rong Lin. Moreover, she herself was also very beautiful. When she first arrived in the human world, she had caused quite a stir.
"But then again, why did he come to the human world?" Chu Chu muttered to herself, her eyes occasionally casting towards Rong Lin. She was puzzled as to why Rong Lin suddenly chose to descend to the mortal realm, and seemingly without informing her in advance.
After class, Chuchu found an excuse and went to Rong Lin's office. As soon as she entered, she asked directly, "Why did you come to the human world? Is the heavenly world not fun anymore?"
Rong Lin took off his glasses, rubbed his nose lightly, and a helpless smile appeared on his face: "Wouldn't it be nice for us to experience the tribulations in the human world together?
