Wherever Zhou Lie goes, there are always many people looking at him. It is very rare for him to be ignored like this.
Shu Xiaoruan happened to pass by him. It seemed that she didn't see him and wanted to continue following the two people. For a moment, she didn't know whether to be angry or amused.
He simply grabbed her hand, and naturally took the luggage with his other hand, his tone faintly revealing a hint of helplessness.
"Where are we going?"
Shu Xiaoruan paused a beat late, looked up at Zhou Lie, and asked in a bewildered tone, "Why are you here?"
Zhou Lie was stunned, as if he was confused by her question, "...Do you want to listen to what you are saying?"
Shu Xiaoruan only came back to her senses from the question at this moment. Her face turned slightly red, and she was a little embarrassed. She whispered, "Sorry, I was just thinking about the last question of the exam."
Zhou Lie wasn't really angry, but his eyes were on Jiang Ziqian and Bai Jing who were walking further and further away, and he casually asked, "What's going on with them?"
Shu Xiaoruan followed his line of sight and exclaimed, "My luggage!"
Zhou Lie still didn't understand the situation, but when he heard Shu Xiaoruan admit that everything in their hands was hers, he went straight up and stopped the two men.
...
...
Even a second before they stopped, they seemed to be still discussing the question.
Zhou Lie: ...
Who are these two!
Bai Jing also reacted. They were originally helping the heroine with her luggage, but they were so engrossed in the topic that they even forgot about the main business.
Bai Jing immediately handed over the things in her hand, took the luggage from Jiang Ziqian, and threw them all into Zhou Lie's hands.
Jiang Ziqian naturally recognized this man. When he heard Bai Jing calling the other person "Brother Zhou" while pushing the luggage over, his eyes darkened slightly.
Zhou Lie put all the luggage in the car, turned around and saw Shu Xiaoruan holding Bai Jing's hand and talking, and then quickly came over.
It seemed that they had almost finished talking, so he hooked and pulled Shu Xiaoruan to his side with his strong arms, and said to Bai Jing.
"Thank you for taking care of Xiaoruan."
Bai Jing sighed in her heart, but she put on a smile on her face, "Friends should just take care of each other. It's so formal to say thank you."
As she spoke, she remembered something and glanced in the direction of Jiang Ziqian.
She found that the latter was looking at her straight with deep eyes, which made her stunned for a moment and even forgot what she wanted to say.
Zhou Lie glanced at the two of them and felt that the atmosphere between them was... quite weird. Then he looked at Shu Xiaoruan and found that she seemed to be affected and started muttering about the question again.
Zhou Lie's eyelids twitched, fearing that Shu Xiaoruan would become like these two fanatics. After saying goodbye quickly, he took the person away.
It was only then that Bai Jing came back to her senses.
I found that although Jiang Ziqian carried the luggage for the heroine, he spent all the time discussing the questions with her and didn't seem to be able to say a word to the heroine.
And just now... he didn't even look at Shu Xiaoruan.
But he was looking at her.
Bai Jing pursed her lips lightly, raised her eyes slightly, and looked into the other person's eyes. She was afraid of accidentally exposing her irregular heartbeat, so she spoke in a low voice.
"Teacher Jiang, you..."
Clearly, I had a lot of ideas in my mind before when facing various questions, but now they seem to be stuck.
A lot of words came to her lips, but they all got twisted together as if something had happened, and she didn't know where to start for a moment.
In the end, he asked the stupidest question.
"…Are you feeling unhappy?"
Jiang Ziqian narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the faintly attentive smile on Bai Jing's face when she was in front of Zhou Lie, and hummed lightly.
When Bai Jing heard his voice fall, her heartbeat quickened a little and she spoke a little nervously.
"Is it because of Xiaoruan, or is it..."
Before he could finish his words, another voice came from far away.
"Professor Jiang! You are here!"
The man walked quickly to Jiang Ziqian, with an anxious look on his face, "The thing I told you before, have you considered it..."
He paused in the middle of his words when he saw Bai Jing standing next to him.
He had seen Jiang Ziqian from afar before, and the angle just blocked Bai Jing completely. It was only when he walked over that he noticed that there was another female classmate there, and he inexplicably broke out in sweat on his forehead.
"…If you haven't finished talking, I should wait on the side?"
"No," Bai Jing retracted her gaze and repeated her words unconsciously, "Nothing happened."
This man came to see Jiang Ziqian for something important. After hearing what the female classmate said, he smiled apologetically at her and continued to ask about his important matter.
Bai Jing saw that this would not be over for a while, and it seemed that she had to go somewhere afterwards, so she was thinking about going back to the dormitory first.
Unexpectedly, just as she turned around and was about to leave, Jiang Ziqian suddenly called her name.
"Bai Jing."
Jiang Ziqian looked into her eyes. There seemed to be something struggling in her inky black eyes, but finally she calmed down again, and her tone became cold.
He said, "…not because of her."
The person who came to see him didn't understand what this meant and had a confused look on his face.
However, Bai Jing knew that he had heard her question just now and even took the time to give her the answer. She was slightly stunned.
It’s not because of Shu Xiaoruan.
Maybe that's...
Bai Jing's fingertips trembled slightly, and she came to her senses. She wanted to ask something else, but she saw that Jiang Ziqian had been taken away by that man.
You look very busy.
Although Bai Jing really wanted to go up and ask some more questions, it seemed that the place was really busy, so she finally returned to her dormitory.
She was the only one in their dormitory who applied to stay on campus. After all, the Spring Festival was approaching, and if conditions allowed, everyone else would go home to reunite with their families for the New Year.
After returning to the dormitory, everyone else had left and it felt a bit deserted for a while.
However, Bai Jing had lived alone before and was quite used to it. But because there was no one else to talk to, she couldn't help thinking about the words Jiang Ziqian left for her before he left.
Before I knew it, it was already dark.
Even the exercise book spread out in front of me showed no progress.
Bai Jing closed the book and sighed a little sadly.
We saw each other from time to time before, and since he was my teacher, I couldn't avoid him even if I wanted to.
Unexpectedly, when she wanted to meet him by chance and continue to ask about what happened at that time, she couldn't run into Jiang Ziqian anywhere, and she didn't meet him for the next two days.
On Monday, which was the day of the previously agreed competition, Bai Jing naturally had no time to run around the school.
