Principal Zhang was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Ji Zhinan and asked, "You don't like strong tea?"
Ji Zhinan curled his lips and smiled lightly: "Compared to strong tea, I do prefer light tea."
"So that's how it is." Principal Zhang smiled and said, "It seems I don't understand you as well as Mr. Gu."
"..." The smile on Ji Zhinan's face remained unchanged. She wanted to drink tea to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere. She held the handle of the teacup, only to find that Gu Yibei had just turned the handle of the cup in front of her to make it easier for her to hold it.
Her heart, which had just been electrocuted, trembled violently again.
In fact... this was only the third time she and Gu Yibei had met, not even a fraction of the number of times she had met Principal Zhang.
I didn't expect that he actually remembered his hobby of drinking tea.
Perhaps it was because Ji Zhinan had never been cared for so much by anyone other than Old Man Ji, and Gu Yibei's subtle concern made her feel warm in her heart.
"Thank you." A rare genuine smile appeared on her cold face.
No one noticed that Ji Zhinan's icy heart was slowly melting under the scorching sun...
Principal Zhang carefully checked the documents and nodded, "No problem. Don't worry about the other procedures. I'll help you with them."
"Thank you, Principal."
The two of them sat there and discussed their studies, and half an hour passed by unknowingly.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ji Zhinan interrupted: "That's it for now, I won't disturb you anymore."
Principal Zhang's mouth was dry as he spoke: "Okay, there's plenty of time later, so let's stop here for today."
"good."
After saying goodbye to Principal Zhang, Ji Zhinan left first.
As soon as she left, Gu Yibei stood up and said, "Principal Zhang, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Principal Zhang quickly stood up and said, "I'll see you off."
"Need not."
…
After leaving the office, Ji Zhinan took out his cell phone and called Xing Fei. A cold, mechanical female voice came from the other end of the line.
"Hello, the number you dialed is turned off. Please call again later..."
She glanced at the time. The class had not ended yet, so Xing Fei must have turned on flight mode.
In the lobby downstairs, the cleaning lady was cleaning carefully with a mop.
Ji Zhinan walked to the stairs and went downstairs while looking down at her phone.
One foot was on the stairs, and suddenly it slipped. Ji Zhinan lost his balance and fell forward.
Ji Zhinan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she subconsciously grabbed the handrail. There were about 10 to 20 steps in front of her.
Falling from the second floor will only result in minor fractures.
A hand from behind grabbed her wrist, and then her body was pulled over like a kite.
Then she fell into a warm embrace, her cheek pressed against the man's shirt, and through a thin layer of cloth she could see his chest. Ji Zhinan could even clearly hear Gu Yibei's strong heartbeat.
“…” Her heartbeat also suddenly accelerated.
Gu Yibei had one hand around her waist and the other hand protecting the back of Ji Zhinan's head.
Ji Zhinan is not short. Her height of 169cm is considered to be the best among girls, but it is nothing compared to Gu Yibei who is only 190cm tall.
Gu Yibei hugged her, and the hand that was around Ji Zhinan's waist exerted strength and directly lifted up Ji Zhinan, who weighed more than 90 pounds. Ji Zhinan's shoes were five or six centimeters away from the ground.
As if filming a movie, the picture paused at this moment.
The man's heart finally settled down after he held Ji Zhinan firmly. He put Ji Zhinan down, squatted down, and placed his noble hands on her ankles.
