Chapter 180 If You Don’t Fall in Love, You’ll Fail
After dinner, it was only about 12:30 when Lin Zhiwei returned to the dormitory. He sat in front of the computer and stared at the TV series in a daze. Then he opened the closet and stared at the clothes in a daze. Then he stood in front of the balcony mirror and muttered whether he should wash his hair. It was a little oily...
In short, it felt that her entire behavior was too abnormal, and Zhou Antian and the other two were shocked.
However, Lin Zhiwei didn't have time to care about their thoughts. She hurriedly washed her hair and blew it dry, and for the first time ever, she put on some light makeup.
Looking at the beautiful Lin Zhiwei, the other three were stunned.
In fact, even after living together for more than a year, they had never seen Lin Zhiwei look so beautiful. Although they have always known that Weiwei is very beautiful, they are still fascinated by her gorgeous and dazzling appearance.
Zhou Antian was stunned for a while before coming back to her senses. She immediately circled around Lin Zhiwei, screaming as she turned, "It's so pretty! So beautiful!"
"Weiwei, are you going out on a date?" Li Ye interrupted Zhou Antian's exclamation and asked.
"No, I'm going to look for..." Lin Zhiwei reacted halfway through his sentence, so he changed the subject and said vaguely, "Um... I'm going to see someone, haha, it's getting late, I'm leaving first!"
After saying this, she picked up her bag and ran away in a hurry. The three people in the dormitory looked at her fleeing figure and smiled at each other: "Let's have her tonight!"
…
Along the way, Lin Zhiwei's steps were very cheerful. She held her mobile phone tightly, looking at it from time to time, and her whole body was filled with a happy smile.
Soon she arrived at the Department of Mathematics. The building was very quiet and there didn't seem to be many people there.
Lin Zhiwei quickly went up to the second floor, but the closer she got to door 208, the slower her steps became. But the distance was not far, and no matter how slowly she walked, she would eventually reach the end. She dawdled and finally arrived outside the door.
Because she was in a hurry to go upstairs, her breathing was a little heavy, her little face was flushed, and the strands of hair on her temples were stuck to her cheeks.
Lin Zhiwei tidied up her hair and clothes, took a deep breath, suppressed her rapidly beating chest, and gently knocked on the door.
"Please come in." A familiar male voice came from inside, but the voice was a little low through the door.
Lin Zhiwei opened the door and walked in, stepping carefully. She saw Xie Fei was concentrating on writing something and seemed to have no time to pay attention to her. She curiously glanced left and right with the corner of her eye.
As the footsteps approached, Xie Fei put down his pen, looked up, and saw her pair of almond-shaped eyes twinkling, sparkling and sparkling. Her little look as she looked around was so adorable.
He smiled silently and said, "Are you that curious?"
Lin Zhiwei looked at him and nodded his head, smiling, "This is my first time in the mathematics department's office. I want to see what's different from the Chinese department."
As she spoke, she walked over to the table in two or three steps, glanced at the paper in front of him that was densely packed with formulas, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Teacher, are you busy? Am I disturbing you?"
"Well, it's okay. I'm just calculating for fun. Who knows, I might become the next Hua Luogeng someday." Xie Fei nodded and said, "What a disturbance. It's a teacher's duty to answer students' questions. Besides, Assistant Zhiwei came to ask me math questions. It seems that he is very interested in math. The teacher feels very gratified."
No, I'm interested in you, teacher, not math!
The villain in Lin Zhiwei's heart shook his head frantically, lowered his head somewhat in shame, and nodded with a smile on his face in cooperation with Xie Fei: "Yes, please give me more guidance, teacher."
Then the two of them sat down on the sofa nearby. Because Lin Zhiwei's intention of coming to see Xie Fei had been misunderstood before, he put away his secret thoughts and listened to his explanation wholeheartedly, very seriously.
So, although the questions are difficult, the efficiency is quite high.
Xie Fei explained it once, and she asked some questions about her doubts. In less than 20 minutes, she completely understood it and wrote down the answers independently on the spot.
After finishing the question, Xie Fei stood up and poured two glasses of water, handing her one: "Drink a glass of water and take a rest before leaving. The sun is still a little hot at this time."
Lin Zhiwei's heart moved slightly when she heard the words. She tightened her hand holding the water cup. Looking at Xie Fei's smiling eyes, she felt a warm current flowing through her heart.
Xie Fei watched her drinking water in small sips, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth, and there was a faint ripple in his eyes.
His slender fingers rubbed the cup absentmindedly. After a while, he gently asked, "Did you find anything wrong with the boy named Zhao Yiming in the sketching class that you told me about before?"
Unexpectedly, he still remembered this matter. Lin Zhiwei was stunned for a moment.
But she quickly came to her senses, nodded and said, "There is a little bit, but I can't explain it clearly. Through my observation in the last class, I felt that he seemed to have some kind of malice towards me, and I don't know if I am right."
"It doesn't matter whether it's right or not. If you have this thought, you will subconsciously guard against him. Anyway, this is a good thing." Xie Fei raised his glass and took a sip of water, and earnestly told her, "If you have anything, you must call me as soon as possible. Don't be afraid to disturb me."
Lin Zhiwei was inexplicably happy because of Zhao Yiming's depressed mood. She nodded and asked cautiously, "Then... Teacher, I also think it's clearer to explain it in person, so... can I come to your office to see you in the future?"
Xie Fei's pair of black eyes reflected the sunshine outside the window. Hearing this, his long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering the triumphant smile in his pupils. Then he looked at her as if nothing had happened: "Of course, whether it's in school or in life, as long as you don't understand something, you can come to me at any time."
Lin Zhiwei's bright eyes lit up, and the joy and happiness in her heart was beyond words. She felt that the boiled water in her mouth was mixed with honey, and the sweetness flowed along the tip of her tongue and throat directly to her heart.
…
From that day on, no matter if there was anything to do or not, Lin Zhiwei would go to Xie Fei's office every now and then to see him.
Sometimes she would bring math textbooks to ask questions, sometimes she would bring Jinshengzi throat lozenges, steam eye masks and other things to remind him to take care of his health, or she would bring him something delicious to share with him, and sometimes she would even run to find him when she wore new clothes, changed her hairstyle, or heard something interesting.
Even if she went there in the scorching sun and found that he was not there or was busy, and could only stay for a few minutes, she still enjoyed it.
Before long, almost all the teachers in the Department of Mathematics knew that Professor Xie had a female assistant named Lin Zhiwei, who loved learning, respected teachers, was lively and cheerful, considerate and attentive... a lovely and beautiful female student.
In short, all the nice words were applied to Lin Zhiwei as if they were free.
Then, when comparing them privately with the male assistants they had chosen, everyone had an expression of regret on their faces!
Why did you think girls were not good at mathematical thinking and did not like to study mathematics at that time? Looking at Professor Xie's female assistant, and then looking at the male assistant in front of them who was sweating and arguing with them from time to time, all the teachers were burning with envy and jealousy, and they wanted to kick them away so that they wouldn't be annoyed by them.
Of course, envy and jealousy will inevitably lead to jokes and teasing. Lin Zhiwei even had a nickname "Teacher Xie's girlfriend", which originated from a midnight snack she sent to Xie Fei's office.
That day, she walked towards the dormitory after evening self-study as usual. When she passed by the cafeteria, she was attracted by the smell. She hesitated back and forth outside the cafeteria door for several minutes. Finally, she succumbed to the gluttony in her stomach and ordered a serving of seafood wontons under the condemning gaze of Zhou Antian and others.
While waiting for her meal, she complained to Xie Fei on WeChat about herself, and said in a confessional manner that she would walk around the playground for a few laps after eating to digest the food. Then she asked him if he usually had a midnight snack.
Unexpectedly, the person on the other end replied that he ate more midnight snacks than dinners, like tonight when he missed dinner because he was busy doing research.
When Lin Zhiwei found out, his eyes rolled and he hurriedly asked the cafeteria aunt to pack a large bowl of wontons and a basket of steamed dumplings.
After that, she quietly went to Xie Fei's office. After knocking on the door and entering, she found that there were several mathematics teachers there.
Lin Zhiwei was embarrassed for a moment, standing there at a loss, but Xie Fei smiled and invited her in to sit down, then asked: "Why are you here so late? Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Lin Zhiwei pursed her lips and smiled awkwardly. After a while, she blinked and said hesitantly, "I heard that you haven't had dinner yet, so I brought you some food."
As she spoke, she placed the take-away box on the table, lowered her eyes and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were busy... I thought the teacher was the only one here."
But Xie Fei smiled dotingly and rubbed her head, saying, "Thank you Zhiwei, I'm just hungry, so I won't be polite."
Seeing that he did not blame herself but seemed very happy instead, Lin Zhiwei felt warm in her heart and the corners of her mouth rose slightly along with him.
The aroma of food spread throughout the office. Several teachers who were still discussing something came rushing over. Yao Zhaoguo was the first to shout, "Ah, there's food! Teacher Xie, give me something to eat. I'm starving!"
Then several young teachers took the initiative to stuff the dumplings into their mouths, joking as they ate: "Teacher Xie is so lucky, someone is sending you food!"
"Female assistants are really a hundred times, no, a thousand times better than male assistants! It's like having a girlfriend, caring about you and asking about your well-being. Unlike those stinky boys, they're lucky enough not to get mad at you!"
…
Then somehow, Lin Zhiwei was labeled as "Teacher Xie's girlfriend".
She was shocked when she heard it for the first time. She was so nervous that she didn't know what to do. She thought her secret crush on Xie Fei was exposed.
Later, after Xie Fei's explanation, he realized that those teachers just wanted to tease him. In fact, no one took it seriously. Some even laughed and threatened him to treat everyone to a big meal.
However, this nickname still remains. Sometimes when the teachers see her from a distance, they will jokingly say to Xie Fei: "Hey, Teacher Xie, your Zhiwei is here again!"
"There's more loving and nutritious soup. Teacher Xie, please share it with us. You've gained weight!"
Xie Fei responded calmly: "You guys are just jealous of me. My Zhiwei is just so good. There is no one else like her in the whole school. You are all secretly envious!"
However, looking at Lin Zhiwei, because she had her own little thoughts in her heart, she would blush every time she heard it, but she couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
Even when she heard him say "my Zhiwei", her heart couldn't help but melt and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
…
Originally, this was a small matter that was only circulated among the teachers in the Mathematics Department. It was just a joke among everyone after dinner, but there happened to be a person named Zhao Yiming who was secretly observing Lin Zhiwei.
He was very patient and had great endurance. Even if he didn't find anything, he never planned to give up. Instead, he spent more time and energy to track Lin Zhiwei.
With such close surveillance, he actually discovered some clues.
Lin Zhiwei was inexplicably happy every Monday morning when it came to math class. Not only did he arrive at the classroom early, but he was often the last one to leave.
She also frequently visited the Institute of Mathematics, with a sweet smile on her face. She dresses up very beautifully every time she goes there, and even often packs food.
In addition, he later heard some intimate names such as "little girlfriend" and "your Zhiwei", and a thought vaguely emerged in Zhao Yiming's mind -
Lin Zhiwei is in love with his math teacher!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right. Although he had never seen the two of them being intimate with each other, all the signs pointed to this. Even if he guessed wrong, he believed that one thing was absolutely correct.
That is, Lin Zhiwei likes his teacher.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yiming couldn't help but clench his fists excitedly. However, the next moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and his handsome face had a ferocious and distorted expression, which looked terrifying.
An uncontrollable and unspeakable jealousy and hatred gradually filled his heart, and then he wanted to destroy Lin Zhiwei and Xie Fei immediately like a madman.
Even though Xie Fei might be innocent, he couldn't help but be madly jealous of him, jealous that he had won Lin Zhiwei's heart, or even her body!
He hated Lin Zhiwei so much that he wanted to destroy her, but even so, she should be his, belonging to him alone, both physically and mentally, everything must be his! How could she, could she, like anyone else?
Can't! He doesn't allow it! She can only like herself!
In the lush bushes, Zhao Yiming watched Lin Zhiwei skipping into the Institute of Mathematics, with a sly smile on his face.
…
It seemed as if the atmosphere around them changed overnight.
Early in the morning, Lin Zhiwei found that Zhou Antian and the other two were looking at him hesitantly, and they didn't answer when he asked them questions. They even hid aside and whispered to him.
During class, the classmates who usually sat around me sat elsewhere. They looked at me strangely and whispered to each other while stealing glances at me.
When she was walking on the street, people around her would stay away from her when they saw her coming, and these strangers would point at her and talk.
Even when she went to the Institute of Mathematics to look for Xie Fei, those people who used to love teasing her now looked at her strangely. A middle-aged female teacher who had never liked her even snorted with disdain and contempt.
This was all so strange that Lin Zhiwei immediately stopped, turned around and ran towards the dormitory.
As soon as she got back, she interrogated Zhou Anting and the other two. However, after knowing the reason, she felt that "a blow to the head" was not enough to describe her mood. She just stood there in a daze.
Zhou Antian's chattering voice could be heard beside my ears: "...Weiwei, you are not really in a relationship with Teacher Xie, are you? I didn't believe it at first, but what the forums and bulletin boards say is well-founded. More importantly, there are many photos of you carrying a packing box in and out of Teacher Xie's office!"
"It's not that we don't believe you, it's just that you've been acting too strangely lately." Li Ye also said, "We also suspected that the photo was photoshopped, but you've been going out frequently recently... and the time is right, so we can't help but believe it."
Lin Zhiwei listened in a daze, with only one sentence echoing in his mind: "If he knows, he must know, will he hate me..."
At the same time, she couldn't help but feel fortunate that she didn't go to see him today.
Since this scandal affected the teachers in the school, and the photos did not show any improper relationship between Xie Fei and Lin Zhiwei, the school directly punished the few people who started it and suppressed the matter.
But is Zhao Yiming someone who would give up easily?
After he found out that the rumor had been suppressed, he changed direction and said some specious words when chatting with everyone to provoke the boys to dislike Xie Fei and despise Lin Zhiwei.
So just two days after the scandal was suppressed, a new wave of discussion arose among the students.
Some say that Xie Fei is a role model for a teacher. He looks well-dressed, but who knows how many girls he has deceived with that face.
Some also say that Lin Zhiwei was forced by Xie Fei, and she had no choice but to do so because Xie Fei held her credits in his hands!
Of course most girls disagreed. Instead, they said that it was Lin Zhiwei who was shameless enough to get close to him. She just thought that Teacher Xie was handsome and easy to talk to, so she wanted to use her beauty to seduce Teacher Xie and pass the advanced mathematics test. Teacher Xie was an innocent sufferer, and the culprit was Lin Zhiwei!
Lin Zhiwei could tolerate people talking about herself, but she couldn't stand those people talking about Xie Fei. She wanted to defend him, but then she remembered that she was the one who caused these rumors.
She regretted so much that she wondered why she hadn't been more careful and dragged such a good man into this complicated vortex. At the same time, she felt ashamed and didn't want to cause him any more trouble, nor did she want to see his disgusted look, so she began to avoid Xie Fei.
I no longer went to his office to look for him, no longer contacted him, sat in the corner during class, and hurried away when I met him on the street...
Lin Zhiwei endured her longing for him and tried her best to pretend to be a stranger to distance herself from him, hoping to forget him and no longer disturb his peaceful life.
But it was no use. When they passed each other, he said lightly, "Come to my office later, I have something to tell you," which made the defense she had just built up collapse and she was vulnerable.
Lin Zhiwei came to Xie Fei's office with a nervous mood. She stood at the door stiffly, lowering her head in shame.
Xie Fei put down the pen in his hand, looked at her and said, "Come here."
Lin Zhiwei stole a glance at his face. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, and his eyes were calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he liked or disliked her.
She walked in quietly and heard him say, "Close the door."
Lin Zhiwei paused, turned around hesitantly, grasped the door handle and closed the door.
She walked towards Xie Fei nervously, ready to be questioned by him in a scolding or disgusted tone. She mustered up the courage to open her mouth and apologize for her behavior: "Teacher, I..."
However, she was interrupted by him just as she opened her mouth. He pushed a swivel chair over from the side, took out a box of mints from the drawer, and said, "Sit down first and eat some candy to calm you down."
There seemed to be a hint of tenderness in his voice. Lin Zhiwei secretly raised her head and glanced at him. When her eyes met his, there was a hint of smile in his handsome eyes.
Not daring to identify it carefully, she hurriedly lowered her head and looked at the box of her favorite mints. Her panicked heartbeat calmed down a lot.
Lin Zhiwei sat down obediently and ate another candy before Xie Fei's slightly low voice came: "Have you been avoiding me all this time?"
"No." She paused and shook her head.
"Then why haven't you come to my office to ask me questions or chat with me on WeChat to share interesting things?" Xie Fei said calmly, "You sit in the corner during class and run away faster than a rabbit after class. Even if we meet by chance, you pretend not to know me."
"You still say you didn't avoid me?" He paused and said slowly.
Lin Zhiwei twisted his fingers and stammered, "...I, I didn't."
"Still being stubborn?" Xie Fei tilted his head and smiled, "Why don't you dare look up at me without me?"
He smiled like that, and Lin Zhiwei's thoughts buried deep in her heart, the fear and grievances that she had tried hard to suppress, suddenly burst out like a balloon that was suddenly popped. She suddenly raised her head to look at him, her red eyes filled with tears, which rolled down in the blink of an eye.
She sniffed and retorted in a muffled voice: "Just look, what's the problem?"
Xie Fei was immediately amused by her unwillingness to admit defeat. Seeing her tears streaming down his face, he couldn't help but feel distressed. He shook his head helplessly and reached out to wipe her tears: "Why are you crying? It's obviously you who's avoiding me, and you're still feeling wronged?"
Lin Zhiwei turned her head to avoid his hand, wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, and said with sobs: "I didn't cry."
"Be good, don't cry." Xie Fei's eyes moved slightly, and he raised his hand and rubbed her head twice. "You must have been under a lot of pressure because of the rumors. It's my fault that I made you feel so uncomfortable. Don't take it to heart."
After he comforted her like this, Lin Zhiwei felt that she was being unreasonable. He was so nice, how could she not like him?
All of a sudden, he thought of the slanderous words those boys said to him, and he couldn't help but said stubbornly with red eyes: "Why don't you take it to heart? Rumors say that you played with the feelings of female students... It's obviously, obviously my fault, it's me..." I like you, it's my own reason, it has nothing to do with you, why are they scolding you?
However, it couldn't say this anymore.
Xie Fei looked at her red eyes, and his heart ached.
He just stared at her quietly, his eyes as dark as the abyss, filled with her image, and there seemed to be a faint burning in his eyes.
Lin Zhiwei felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, and suddenly heard him chuckle and ask, "Weiwei, do you like me?"
He pronounced the word "Weiwei" very gently. She was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she saw a faint smile in his eyes. She blurted out, "Yes! I like you! I like you very much, I like you so much!"
After saying that, she leaned forward, quickly and accurately grabbed the collar of his shirt with her right hand and pulled it hard, then closed her eyes and kissed him on the lips in his surprised look.
Even someone as calm as Xie Fei was startled for a moment by her sudden confession and kiss.
But he came back to his senses the next second, a smile flashed in his black eyes hidden under his long eyelashes, and his lips, which were pressed by her, curled up slightly.
Lin Zhiwei kissed Xie Fei impulsively and immediately came to her senses, but the more awake she became, the less she dared to open her eyes. Just when she was about to cry but had no tears, she suddenly felt a hand pressing on the back of her head and her chin was gently held by someone's hand.
She was stunned for a moment, and the next moment she felt her lips being held, followed by a hot big tongue sliding into her lips and licking her gums. Her body trembled, and before she could react, the tongue pried open her teeth and rushed in, wrapping her tongue around it, sucking and lingering.
The author has something to say: I’m happy today, so I’ll update more for you guys! There will be something more exciting tomorrow!
Today at dinner, my mother complained to me while watching an anti-Japanese war movie, saying that the screenwriters didn’t know other names for foreigners, so why was a foreigner called John?
I missed the nine o'clock metaphysics class, so I might make a fake update at twelve o'clock to take advantage of the metaphysics class.
Good night, babies!
