"You're really not angry anymore?" Mei Xiawen stared into her eyes, as if trying to figure out if she was speaking from the bottom of her heart, or if she was just playing hard to get.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes were clear, and she ran her hand through her hair with a smile, "Really, I won't be angry over irrelevant people. It's getting late, Class Rep should go back. "
Mei Xiawen looked at his watch, "I'll go then, I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow."
Gu Nianzhi quickly shook her head, "It's fine, Class Rep, I have to finish my graduation thesis tomorrow …"
"Ok, you go up, I'll watch you go up before I leave." Mei Xiawen lit another cigarette and smiled at Gu Nianzhi, thinking that this girl looked easygoing, but it was actually not easy to move her heart.
Gu Nianzhi saw that she couldn't persuade him, so she didn't say anything else and turned to return to the dorm.
She went upstairs and took out her roommates' coffee and muffins from the Starbucks box, and placed them on their desks. She walked to the balcony and looked down.
Mei Xiawen looked up and waved at her with narrowed eyes, before getting into the car and driving away.
Her roommates saw that Gu Nianzhi's expression was relaxed and happy, and knew she wasn't fighting anymore. They didn't say anything, but deliberately said, "It's been a long day, we need to go to bed early."
Gu Nianzhi went to shower, and when she came out, her roommates were all asleep. She looked at her phone, Huo Shao still hadn't called.
She took her laptop to her bed to work on her thesis, and waited until two in the morning, so tired she couldn't keep her eyes open. She finally closed her laptop and went to sleep.
She still kept her phone by her side, and didn't even set it to vibrate.
When she woke up, it was already bright outside. Little Temptress was doing yoga on the balcony, and heard Gu Nianzhi talking to Green Tea Fang. She turned to call her, "Little Four, Class Rep brought you breakfast. I saw it, I think it's a breakfast set from Fortune House."
Gu Nianzhi instinctively looked at her phone, still no calls, and no messages.
It looked like Huo Shao was really busy, or maybe he didn't want to bother with something so trivial?
Although she called him Uncle Huo, they weren't actually related at all.
He was a high and mighty Major General, and she was an orphan.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head, and quickly got out of bed, got dressed, and washed up, then carried her laptop bag downstairs.
Mei Xiawen walked over. "Have you had breakfast?"
"Class Rep knows I haven't eaten yet, that's why he's bringing it to me, right?" Gu Nianzhi gulped as she looked at the box in his hands.
He was really hungry.
She didn't eat much yesterday, but she was very excited and didn't feel hungry.
When he woke up this morning, he realized that he was so hungry that he was seeing stars.
Mei Xiawen took her to the stone table and chairs by the school lake for breakfast.
It was early March in C City, and the mornings were still a little cold. However, the hot bird's nest and coix's rice porridge, the fresh soup dumplings, and the authentic spiced beef from Fortune House were so delicious that they couldn't stop eating.
Unknowingly, she had actually finished the entire breakfast set.
Mei Xiawen only drank a carton of milk and smiled at her. "Looks like you really didn't eat enough yesterday. Don't you like the Italian food at the Red House Restaurant? "
Gu Nianzhi smiled. "It's not that I don't like Italian food. I just don't like onions."
Mei Xiawen thought for a moment. There seemed to be more onions in yesterday's dishes. He nodded. "I'll know in the future. I won't order dishes with onions for you."
The two of them cleaned up and went their separate ways.
Gu Nianzhi went to the library to write her thesis. Mei Xiawen went to the faculty's student council office to deal with some graduation handover matters.
Gu Nianzhi sat in the library all morning and revised the outline of her thesis.
Her neck was sore from sitting in front of the computer for so long.
She rubbed the back of her neck. Someone sat across from her.
Gu Nianzhi looked up to see it was Professor He Zhichu.
"Professor He?!" Gu Nianzhi was surprised and happy. "You came to our library to read?"
He Zhichu nodded. He was wearing a navy blue wool casual suit with matching trousers. He sat across from Gu Nianzhi and was a head taller than her.
Gu Nianzhi realized that He Zhichu looked tall and handsome. He wasn't as strong as Huo Shao, but his aura was similar to Huo Shao's.
Just like his amorous peach blossom eyes and cold and lonely expression, he was filled with a mysterious and contradictory charm.
As Gu Nianzhi studied He Zhichu, he was also studying her.
She was relatively tall for women her age. She wasn't even 18 years old yet but was already nearly 1.7 meters tall.
Her skin was so fair and translucent that it looked like it was covered by a layer of mist from afar. But up close, it was flawless.
Her large, inky eyes were especially attractive.
As for her figure, although she was wearing a loose pink and purple cashmere sweater, it was easy to see the curves of her body. She was much more prominent than the average woman.
He Zhichu looked Gu Nianzhi up and down without batting an eyelid, his eyes cold.
He looked down and closed the book in front of him. He asked Gu Nianzhi, "What are you writing?"
"My graduation thesis." Gu Nianzhi remembered that He Zhichu would be her instructor next spring. She immediately became excited and excitedly discussed the outline of her thesis with him.
He Zhichu was indeed an expert in the legal world. He quickly pointed out some of the inadequacies in her outline and helped her think of a few excellent breakthroughs.
Gu Nianzhi revised the outline again and exclaimed, "Listening to you is truly better than studying for 10 years."
He Zhichu stood up and put one hand in his trouser pocket. He took out his business card and handed it to Gu Nianzhi. "Work hard on your thesis. You can send it to my email when you're done. I'll help you edit it again."
"Ok! Ok!" Gu Nianzhi was overjoyed. She reached out and took the card from He Zhichu. She saw his email address, phone number, office address, and the address of a law firm.
Gu Nianzhi looked at it carefully and asked casually, "Professor He, do you work part-time at the Sovereign Descent Law Firm?"
He Zhichu's peach blossom eyes rippled. He seemed to be smiling, but the smile was too faint and fleeting. "I don't work part-time. This is my law firm."
"Oh? You really are a role model for us law students. "Gu Nianzhi exclaimed sincerely.
When would she ever be able to become a partner or own her own law firm?
He Zhichu seemed to read her mind. He said dryly, "As long as you can prove your abilities, becoming a partner won't be difficult."
"Then I'll accept your kind words." Gu Nianzhi fawned over He Zhichu with a flattering expression.
He would be her instructor and boss for the next three years. She would only be able to live a comfortable life if she sucked up to him!
As soon as He Zhichu left, Gu Nianzhi's phone rang.
She quickly took it and saw it was Mei Xiawen calling.
She reached out and lightly swiped the screen. "Class Rep, what's up?"
"It's noon. I'll pick you up for lunch." Then he reminded her, "It's raining outside. I brought an umbrella for you. Wait for me at the door. Don't come out."
Gu Nianzhi looked outside. It had indeed started raining.
She was touched. She nodded softly and packed her things to go downstairs. At the library entrance, she saw Wen Shouyi eagerly holding an umbrella for Professor He Zhichu. She bent over to open the back door for him to get in.
Gu Nianzhi clicked her tongue. Wen Shouyi wasn't a teaching assistant. She was clearly a nanny …
He Zhichu's black Mercedes splashed with rainwater as it drove into the rain.
Several people holding umbrellas in front of the library quickly moved aside. Among them was Mei Xiawen with a grey umbrella.
