After our relationship was made public
Qiao Qiao shook her head with a conflicted expression. "No, it's just that it was too sudden and I was caught off guard."
"What are you afraid of? Don't you still have me in front of you? An An just needs to hide behind me. "He Shaochen's reply was natural and smooth, as if he had practiced it countless times.
Qiao Qiao's heart warmed. She had felt a little lost at first, but now she was enlightened. No matter how big the situation was, He Shaochen was still there, right?
Why should she worry for nothing?
Thus she nodded her head heavily and smiled. "I'll rely on you to protect me from now on."
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows at her eagerness. "If I don't protect you, who else should I protect?"
Thus she smiled even more happily.

After that, under He Shaochen's strong request, Qiao Qiao stayed in the hospital's intensive care unit for five to six days before she was released.
The moment she left the hospital, she felt as if she had been reborn.
"I don't want to get hurt again …"
Qiao Qiao sighed deeply. She had been in bed for the past few days and felt that her whole body was stiff.
He Shaochen glanced at her and said unhappily, "Do you want to get hurt again? I've never seen someone as stupid as you. What did you do to hurt yourself like this? "
"Haha, it's a mistake, a mistake." Qiao Qiao smiled apologetically.
However, she complained silently in her heart. If her wrist wasn't injured, she would have been hurt even more that day. Qiao Qiao still had lingering fears when she thought about what happened that night.
"You." He Shaochen poked Qiao Qiao's forehead and said unhappily, but his gaze was still gentle.
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but ever since He Shaochen proposed to her that day, his attitude towards her had improved a lot. His gaze towards her had also become gentler.
She laughed in her heart. She thought about how she had been staying in the hospital for the past few days. The Scientific Research Conference had started three days ago. She wondered what the attendance list had changed.
But it wasn't until later that Qiao Qiao found out that the school did not send two students this time for the first time. Instead, they sent a graduate student and a researcher. Qiao Qiao also knew who the researcher was. She was Xu Anting's colleague from the same research institute, Amy.
Because of her injury, her attendance at the scientific research meeting had to be changed.
Although this kind of scientific research meeting had a high value, for the sake of a single spot, the school had to pay attention to the person who had caused this disturbance because of the repeated replacement of the spots and the involvement of so many people.
Then, he realized that Qiao Qiao was involved in almost every incident.
This was no small matter. The school had originally intended to have a "talk" with Qiao Qiao about life, but at the same time, they found out that she was actually related to He Shaochen!
For a private university like Emperor Lan, the factional struggles were also quite intense. When the board of directors knew that Qiao Qiao was related to He Shaochen, no one dared to provoke her. This was because no one wanted to incur the wrath of He Conglomerate.
But there were only two spots. Qiao Qiao couldn't go because of her injury, so who should they send?
If they sent a student, based on the results, Qiao Qiao was the most outstanding student in that cohort. If they sent someone else, they were afraid that she would resent them. But if they didn't send a student, who should they send?
This made the school board of directors very anxious.
But at this time, one of the school board of directors accepted a researcher's suggestion and made an exception to change the candidate from a student to a researcher. As a result, Amy was selected.
It had to be said that the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. In the end, the one who benefited the most was still Amy.
While sitting in the car.
Qiao Qiao's heart was beating like a drum. She muttered, "Now that our relationship has been made public, I wonder how the school will react …."
Since she was related to He Shaochen, it would definitely cause a stir. She just hoped that everyone's reaction wouldn't be too strange.
But it would definitely attract a lot of attention.
Qiao Qiao sighed. She didn't feel like going to school for the next few days.
As soon as her voice fell, her hand was held by He Shaochen. The warm touch made Qiao Qiao stunned. She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion. She saw that He Shaochen's head was tilted to one side, his hand under his chin, as if he was looking at the scenery outside the car. He said in a light tone: "No matter what happens, I will stand by your side."
No woman would be able to resist such words.
Qiao Qiao's eyes curved. She went up to He Shaochen and held his arm with a smile. She leaned her head on his shoulder and said, "I know. With you around, I won't be afraid, right?"
He Shaochen didn't reply. However, the corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile.
At this time, she still hadn't expected that the news of her relationship with He Shaochen would cause a storm in the school.
Although their relationship had been made public, Qiao Qiao didn't want to be treated differently because of this. She still went to school as usual.
But she had forgotten that this matter wouldn't be settled just because she wanted it to be.
The next day.
She had just arrived at the school gate when she was surrounded by the media.
"Hello, Miss Qiao. I'm a reporter from XX News Agency. May I ask you a few questions?" Qiao Qiao was shocked when a microphone suddenly appeared in front of her.
Before she could react, another person also appeared. "Hello, Miss Qiao. I'm from XX News Agency. May I ask if it's true that you are cohabiting with the president of He Conglomerate?"
"Hello, may I ask how you got to know the president of He Clan? According to relevant sources, you were the one who seduced the president of He Clan. May I ask if this is true? "
"Miss Qiao …"
"Hello, Miss Qiao. May I ask you …"
One sharp question after another was asked. Qiao Qiao was caught off guard. She was probably shocked by this sudden situation. Her face was a little pale, and her lips trembled slightly. She opened her mouth and said, "Sorry, I have to go to school. These questions, please …"
The cameras kept clicking. Qiao Qiao's scalp went numb. She used a document to cover her face and said coldly, "Please don't take photos!"
As she spoke, she wanted to walk forward. But with every step she took, she was surrounded by the reporters. It was almost impossible to move an inch.
The students who passed by also saw this situation and didn't dare to go forward. They hurriedly left as if it was none of their business. No one wanted to look for trouble.
The reporters' words were sharp, and they didn't stop talking. Qiao Qiao felt her ears buzzing. She couldn't hear what these people were asking.
"Miss Qiao, you didn't hesitate to sell your body to marry into a rich family. If you don't answer, does that mean you agree?" One of the reporters used brute force and rushed to the front. His microphone was almost touching the tip of Qiao Qiao's nose. Qiao Qiao was so shocked that she took a step back.
