Xu Anting's Confession
Qiao Qiao was still struggling after hearing Freya's words.
Until now, her heart was still beating faster than normal people. That kind of fear lingered, making her panic. Although Freya's every word was reasonable, she still wanted to ask clearly.
Seeing that Qiao Qiao was still hesitating, Freya said angrily, "Even if He Shaochen only has half a year to live, what can you do? You're not a medical student. You can't save him! Besides, he's the head of Family He. He Guanrui can't just watch his important successor die. What are you worried about? "
"…"
Seeing that Freya was angry, Qiao Qiao knew that what she said and did was for her own good. Fearing that she would be hurt again, she softened and said, "Freya, I know what to do. I won't care about He Shaochen anymore. Whether he is dead or alive, it has nothing to do with me. I won't meddle in other people's business."
"Really?"
"Really!"
After hearing Qiao Qiao's words, Freya's expression finally calmed down. She stroked Qiao Qiao's hair and her attitude softened. She said earnestly, "Qiao Qiao, our love isn't cheap, and it's not something he can use to hurt you again and again. Didn't the kidnapping case teach you a lesson? He Shaochen is not the right person for you. His existence will only hurt you. If you let go of this kind of love, it will be good for everyone. "
"…"
He Shaochen couldn't get the image of Shaochen carrying Andol out of his mind for a long time.
Qiao Qiao lowered her eyes. After a long time, she replied, "Freya, I know what to do."
Freya was right. Love shouldn't cause one to be covered in bruises. If there really was such love, then it was better not to have it.
"I won't ask about He Shaochen's affairs anymore."
"Hehe, that's my daughter." Freya nodded her head in satisfaction. She seemed to have thought of something and said, "I think the Xu family boy is pretty good. He's gentle and polite, not arrogant or rash. He treats you very well too. It wouldn't be bad if you two become a couple."
Freya had always thought highly of Xu Anting.
After all, he would have an innate advantage if it matched his aesthetic standards.
Qiao Qiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard such comments. She said, "Freya, he's my mentor. What are you thinking? We can talk about this in private, but please don't say such things in front of Professor Xu. "
Freya didn't think much of it. "Is that so? But why do I feel that the Xu Family's brat is looking forward to me saying that? Qiao Qiao, haven't you noticed that he doesn't just look at you as a student? Besides, what kind of mentor would care so much for his student? He visits you almost every day. "
After all, ever since Xu Anting found out about what had happened to Qiao Qiao, he had rushed over to visit her the next day and quickly became familiar with Freya. After that, he would visit Qiao Qiao every day before he went to work.
No matter what happened.
Freya had seen his persistence and diligence. Secondly, every time Xu Anting looked at Qiao Qiao, there was a hint of gentleness and affection in his eyes. This was the main reason why Freya wanted to pair up Qiao Qiao and Xu Anting.
Xu Anting was definitely interested in Qiao Qiao!
After Qiao Qiao heard this, she kept quiet. Actually, she could vaguely feel the subtle change in Xu Anting's attitude towards her.
Even if Xu Anting was a good person, he wouldn't go to such lengths for a student who had been suspended for more than a year. He was always considerate of her. That wasn't how he would treat a student. Instead, it was … more like how he would treat a lover.
However, Xu Anting had never expressed his feelings directly. Qiao Qiao couldn't just rush up and ask, "Professor Xu, you're so nice to me. Are you interested in me?"
If there was a misunderstanding, then it would be really embarrassing.
Seeing how conflicted Qiao Qiao was, Freya suggested, "Why don't I ask him for you?"
When she said this, Qiao Qiao almost jumped up. "No, no, no. Don't make a decision on your own. If Professor Xu doesn't like you, it'll be awkward for both of us."
"…"
When Freya saw that Qiao Qiao had such a big reaction, she couldn't help but sigh and say, "Forget it. It's not my place to get involved in matters of the heart. However, let me say this upfront. Procrastination isn't the way to solve problems."
Qiao Qiao understood what Freya meant.
It wasn't good to drag things out. Regardless of whether Professor Xu had feelings for her or not, she had to come to a conclusion.
She felt too sly in her current state of confusion.
Why should she be able to enjoy someone's kindness with a clear conscience?
"Okay, I'll find time to clarify things with Professor Xu." Qiao Qiao nodded in agreement.
Freya was very satisfied with Qiao Qiao's resolution. She blinked and said half-jokingly, "Of course, I don't mind having such an outstanding son-in-law."
"Freya …"
When Qiao Qiao heard this, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She really liked Xu Anting, didn't she?
The next day, Xu Anting came again in the evening. The three of them had dinner together and chatted casually. Halfway through, Freya suddenly received a call. She stood up and said, "Sorry, I have to go out for a while. Take your time."
As she spoke, she winked at Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao looked at Freya in surprise and thought, 'Freya, are you really not deliberately creating opportunities for me and Professor Xu?'
"It's so late. Let me take you there," Xu Anting volunteered.
Freya waved her hand and declined with a smile. "It's okay. I'll get the driver to take me there. You can have a chat with Qiao Qiao. Don't worry about me."
As she spoke, the sound of a car horn could be heard outside the house.
Xu Anting didn't insist. He and Qiao Qiao walked her to the front door. After watching Freya leave, they closed the door.
Perhaps it was because of Freya's words, but Qiao Qiao seemed to feel that Xu Anting's gaze was too blatant. She laughed dryly and tried to make the atmosphere a little awkward. "Freya always goes out at night. I don't know what she's doing."
"Although I don't know what she's doing, I believe that she's doing it for your own good," Xu Anting said with a smile.
"Uh …" Qiao Qiao scratched her cheek and winked at Xu Anting. She kindly reminded him, "I think that saying this in front of Freya might have a better effect."
Xu Anting was also different from his usual strict manner. He winked at Qiao Qiao and said, "Sometimes, when praising someone, you don't have to say it in front of them. It might be better to hear it from someone else."
"…"
As expected, the older the ginger, the spicier the spicier!
Sometimes, the effect of hearing it from someone else's mouth was like heaven and earth.
When he saw that Qiao Qiao didn't say anything, Xu Anting couldn't help but laugh. He said, "I was just joking. When you said that, I just casually responded. I didn't mean anything else."
"Hehe …" Qiao Qiao laughed and said awkwardly, "Professor Xu, I just realized that you're quite humorous."
Xu Anting smiled. "Actually, in private, I'm quite different from when I'm in school. Sometimes, my style can change suddenly. Don't be scared."
His style changed suddenly?
Qiao Qiao almost laughed out loud. She didn't expect that such fashionable words would come out of the mouth of a meticulous scholar. The nervousness she felt when she was alone with Xu Anting seemed to have dissipated.
She couldn't help but wonder if Professor Xu said that on purpose. Could he tell that she was nervous?
She glanced sideways at Xu Anting and was attracted by his gentle gaze. Freya's words echoed in her mind again.
Qiao Qiao's heart started to pound. She didn't know why, but she suddenly asked, "Professor Xu, do you like me?"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Qiao Qiao suddenly felt like slapping herself.
Why did she ask that directly?!
Could she still take back her words? Right now, she really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and dig a hole in the ground.
Qiao Qiao didn't dare to look into Xu Anting's eyes. She waved her hand and said, "Sorry, I just said it casually. Professor Xu, please forget about it. Haha …"
