"Since she's participating in the competition, I'll have to give her some lessons."
Ye Yan's words were reasonable.
However, Yang Yan was so angry that she almost vomited blood. If Ye Yan really wanted to tutor Guan Xiaodian, wouldn't that mean that they would have to spend time alone? Wouldn't all her previous efforts go to waste?
"Is there anything else?"
Ye Yan saw that Yang Yan was still standing there and asked.
Yang Yan tried to squeeze out a smile, but it was a fake one, "Professor Ye, isn't this a little inappropriate? After all, Xiaodian is no longer participating in the competition under our school's name. If you continue to teach her, it might affect you negatively."
"So what? Since Guan Xiaodian is now in Saint Innbell, I'm her mentor. It's only right for me to teach her. What's wrong with that? Besides, learning is limitless. It would be a mistake to neglect a genius because of the difference in school. "
Ye Yan said it so frankly that Yang Yan didn't know how to continue persuading him.
In the end, she could only grit her teeth and swallow it down, "I understand, Professor Ye. I'll call her over right away."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Guan Xiaodian didn't expect Ye Yan to be willing to teach her.
She was very grateful because He Sijie had fought so hard to get her a spot. Guan Xiaodian didn't want his efforts to go to waste, so she was especially hardworking. Ye Yan had never seen hardworking students before, but it was rare to see a talented and hardworking student.
He had always admired Guan Xiaodian. Although he had some complaints about her private life due to the rumors, he felt that it didn't matter when he saw how hardworking Guan Xiaodian was.
Ye Yan could see that Guan Xiaodian was still sitting there drawing even after everyone had left. She didn't look like she was putting on a show at all. She was so engrossed in her drawing that even if someone walked past her, she wouldn't be distracted.
Guan Xiaodian drew for several hours. When Ye Yan was about to leave, he found that she was still there.
He knocked on the door to get her attention, but she didn't hear him. Her eyes were glued to the drawing.
Ye Yan had no choice but to walk over and stop beside her.
"Guan Xiaodian, it's almost 11."
Ye Yan said.
Guan Xiaodian snapped out of her daze and noticed that there was someone in front of her. She was startled, but when she saw that it was Ye Yan, she let out a sigh of relief. She said excitedly, "Professor Ye, I suddenly had an idea. I want to share it with you."
"Oh, tell me about it."
Ye Yan's interest was piqued.
Guan Xiaodian explained her design concept to Ye Yan. Ye Yan's eyes lit up. He looked at Guan Xiaodian and praised, "Good idea."
Guan Xiaodian said excitedly, "Really?"
"Yes."
Ye Yan said, "I've seen many works with unrequited love as the theme, but this is the first time I've seen such a unique idea."
"Then I'll show it to you when it's done."
"No problem."
Guan Xiao Dian smiled and was about to continue drawing when a hand stopped her.
"Professor Ye?"
Guan Xiao Dian looked at Ye Yan in confusion.
Ye Yan smiled gracefully and said, "Little friend, do you really know what time it is? When does your dorm close? "
His words woke her up from her daze.
Guan Xiao Dian took out her phone and saw that it was already past 11. She was shocked and said, "Oh no, oh no, I have to go back quickly. Our dorm closes at 11: 30. I have to find the aunties to open the door after that. They're super fierce."
Guan Xiao Dian hurriedly packed her things. But halfway through, her stomach started to growl.
This was awkward.
Ye Yan laughed, "Don't tell me you forgot to eat dinner?"
Seeing how Guan Xiao Dian was so engrossed in her food, Ye Yan felt that it was very possible.
Guan Xiao Dian smiled awkwardly and said, "I accidentally forgot the time. I'll go buy a bag of instant noodles later. It's okay."
"How can that be? You're staying up so late and you're just eating instant noodles? "
"But the cafeteria is closed now."
Guan Xiao Dian said in distress.
"Eat out with me."
Ye Yan said.
"How can that be?"
Guan Xiao Dian said.
She was caught in the storm of rumors and Ye Yan was deeply affected. She was worried that if she went out to eat with Ye Yan this time, it would be bad.
"You're my student. What's wrong with eating out?"
Ye Yan didn't think much of it.
"Besides, the innocent will always be innocent. If you really didn't do anything shameful, what's there to worry about? Didn't you clear your name when you were caught in the rumors before? "
Guan Xiao Dian laughed dryly.
If He Sijie hadn't helped her, she might not have been able to clear her name.
If something like this happened again, she wouldn't have the face to ask him to help her again.
"Let's go. If anything happens, I'll back you up."
Ye Yan grabbed Guan Xiao Dian's hand and pulled her out.
Guan Xiao Dian was shocked. She had no choice but to follow Ye Yan out. But with Ye Yan holding her hand, she felt uncomfortable. She whispered to Ye Yan, "Professor Ye, can you let go of me?"
Ye Yan just realized that he had been holding Guan Xiao Dian's hand.
"Sorry."
He immediately let go.
Actually, Ye Yan wasn't a frivolous person. He was a very disciplined person. He had his own boundaries with girls, friends, and family. He never crossed them.
It could be said that before he pulled Guan Xiao Dian, he had never touched a girl's hand. He didn't know what was going on, but he couldn't help but hold her hand this time.
He could still feel the touch on his hand. It was soft and small.
Guan Xiao Dian was petite, so her hand was small too. His big hand could completely wrap around hers.
Ye Yan's heart felt like it was being plucked by a feather.
So this was a girl's hand?
Ye Yan thought.
Guan Xiao Dian quickly retracted her hand. She lowered her head, a little embarrassed.
Ye Yan saw her expression and couldn't help but laugh, "Are you scared of me?"
"No!"
"Are you repulsed by my actions just now?"
Ye Yan asked again.
Guan Xiao Dian didn't understand why Ye Yan would ask such a question, but she still shook her head, "No."
Ye Yan got an answer and the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly, "Let's go. I know a food stall that has good food. Let's hurry back to the dorm after we eat."
"Don't bother."
Guan Xiao Dian said, "Auntie will be very angry when the dorm closes later."
Guan Xiao Dian was still a little scared when she said this.
"It's okay. I'll send you back later. They won't scold you."
Ye Yan smiled, then said, "If I let my student go hungry, I probably won't be able to sleep well tonight."
Guan Xiao Dian had no choice but to agree.
Ye Yan brought her to a food stall a little further away. There were quite a lot of people eating supper. Guan Xiao Dian was very reserved at first, but when she found that the food was really good, she let go. She had been hungry all day and finally had a full meal, so she didn't care about her image.
Later, she found that Ye Yan didn't eat much of the food in front of him. Instead, he kept staring at her, which was a little creepy.
