Because they had eaten dinner late, around 10 o'clock when everyone had just finished eating, [Wei Feng] looked forward to [Chi Yan]: "Brother [Yan], we don't want to go back tonight. I want to enjoy myself."
[Chi Yan] threw him a VVVIP card of the hotel.
[Wei Feng] shouted loudly: "[Yan] brother bless you! Who wants to go together?"
"I do!"
"I do!"
"Me too!" Everyone followed [Wei Feng].
[Chi Yan] looked at [Chu Yang]: "I'll take you back."
[Chu Yang] and the others were tired. "Okay."
When they returned to the dormitory, it was almost 11 o'clock. After [Chu Yang] took a shower, she went to sleep. Before falling asleep, she saw the essay her brother [Chu Luo] sent her. She decided to read it tomorrow.
The next morning when [Chu Yang] got up, while eating breakfast, she read [Chu Luo]'s little essay: Under the sunshine, the wheat ears shone with golden light, Uncle Farmer walked over with a hoe...
After a period of training, [Chu Luo]'s essays had improved a lot. At least he would describe things more carefully now. But [Chu Yang] felt it was not good enough.
[Chu Yang] quickly wrote down several comments and assigned new tasks.
At noon, [Chi Yan] sent her a message. It turned out that the owner of the hotel that caught fire last night had found them and gave [Chi Yan] and the others a flag for brave righteousness. Not only that, but each of them was also given a VIP card and told that they would get a 50% discount at the hotel restaurant in the future.
But everyone knew that the biggest credit was actually [Chu Yang]. They were going to bring the VIP cards to her and the brave righteousness flag too.
[Chu Yang] didn't want such a big fuss. "Just give me two cards, that's enough. I don't need the flag." Two cards would be enough for the four people in their dormitory.
"Okay, I'll come find you this afternoon."
"Good."
In the afternoon after school, [Chi Yan] rode his little lamb to the literature building again and handed [Chu Yang] two cards. Then he asked her, "You're off from school right? Do you want to go out for dinner?"
[Chu Yang]: "Where to eat?" Why is it eating every time?
[Chi Yan] thought for a while. "There's a pretty good one. I'll take you there." Then he handed [Chu Yang] a helmet. He had become quite skilled at this.
[Chu Yang]: "Okay." [Chu Yang] took the helmet and sat behind him.
At this moment, the class teacher [Li Deyong] happened to come out from the teaching building. Seeing [Chu Yang], he called out, "Student [Chu Yang]?"
[Chu Yang] was still fiddling with the helmet. She looked over, "Teacher [Li]."
[Li Deyong] glanced at [Chi Yan] and was surprised. This male student looked really good. Then he asked, "Your boyfriend?"
[Chu Yang]: "Just a friend."
[Li Deyong] didn't care too much either. "Think about the competition I talked to you about today, okay?"
[Chu Yang] nodded. "Okay. I will definitely consider it."
[Li Deyong] waved his hand. "Hmm. You go ahead first."
[Chu Yang] bid him goodbye, then sized him up and said, "Teacher [Li], take a different route home today. Bye bye."
[Chu Yang] patted [Chi Yan]'s shoulder, signaling him to drive.
[Chi Yan] understood, then the little lamb quickly drove away, leaving [Li Deyong] completely puzzled. He hadn't forgotten what student [Chu Yang] had told him a long time ago. He was originally going to go to Mingde Building and then go home from there. Now [Chu Yang] was telling him to take a different route?
He shook his head. As a teacher of the people, how could he believe in superstition! Materialism, materialism, materialism, he chanted it three times to himself. Teacher [Li Deyong] turned and walked in another direction. He just wanted to buy something, hmm.
On [Chu Yang]'s side, [Chi Yan] asked, "Are you going to participate in a competition? That was Professor [Li] just now, right? I've read the prose he wrote before."
"Yeah. That's Professor [Li Deyong]. He recommended me to participate in a Chinese knowledge competition. He also introduced me to my part-time job. He's a great teacher." [Chu Yang] explained.
"So are you going?"
"I'm considering it."
[Chi Yan] didn't ask too much either. He suddenly remembered the book [Chu Yang] had wanted to find last time. "By the way, last time you wanted to find that book Commercial Zhou Dialogues. I found that book at my house. Can I bring it to you tomorrow afternoon?"
[Chu Yang] thought for a moment. "I have my part-time job tomorrow afternoon, so I won't have time."
That's right. [Chu Yang] seemed to be tutoring at his complex. "You're going to tutor, right? In my complex?"
[Chu Yang] nodded. "Yeah."
[Chi Yan] smiled. "That works out great then. I'll go find you to give you the book after you finish tutoring tomorrow. I'll be around the complex anyway since I'm going back there tonight and will stay there tomorrow."
[Chu Yang] thought it was feasible. "Okay."
"It's settled then."
[Chi Yan] took [Chu Yang] to a small shop in a small alley. If you didn't know about it, you wouldn't know there was a shop here. After parking, [Chi Yan] said, "This shop is run by an aunt I know. Her home cooking is pretty good."
Then he took [Chu Yang] inside.
"Oh, little [Yan] is here?" The shop owner saw [Chi Yan] and came up to greet them. "What would you like to eat today?"
[Chi Yan] shook her hand with a smile. "Aunt [Wen], nice to see you. I brought a classmate today to see what she wants to eat."
Only then did the boss notice [Chu Yang]. She smiled and said, "Your classmate ah. Okay, little classmate, take a look at the menu and see what you want to eat?" She handed [Chu Yang] a menu.
[Chu Yang] was also very generous. "I'll have the steamed bass, sweet and sour pork ribs. [Chi Yan], you can order the rest."
[Chi Yan] ordered two more dishes.
The dishes came up quickly. After eating two bites, [Chi Yan] looked at her. "How is it?"
[Chu Yang] nodded while eating. "Very good." It really was very good, with a home-cooked taste.
"Then let's come back another time." [Chi Yan] said.
[Chu Yang] glanced at him but didn't speak. After eating their fill, [Chi Yan] sent her back to the dormitory, then left.
The next day, while [Chu Yang] was at her tutoring job, Professor [Li Deyong], who had some business at the school, heard the security guard say, "Professor [Li], don't take the Mingde Building route today. They're doing work over there."
Professor [Li] remembered what [Chu Yang] had told him yesterday and asked, "What's going on over there?"
Security guard: "Yesterday a tree branch over there suddenly fell down and hit two students. Fortunately, they only had minor injuries. So today the school required all the branches of the trees over there to be trimmed. Afterwards, they might check the other trees to see if they all need trimming."
Professor [Li] asked again: "When did this happen?"
Security guard: "Yesterday afternoon around dinner time when school had just ended, I think."
Professor [Li Deyong]: ...No wonder student [Chu Yang] told him to take another route. But how did student [Chu Yang] know?
If this was just a coincidence before, but this time it was verified. As a professor who had seen a lot, student [Chu Yang] not only had good grades, but was also good-natured. She really lives up to being his student!
On the other side, [Chi Yan] got up early in the morning. First he cleaned the whole house, then the fridge was empty so he went to buy a whole bunch of groceries. Then he took out the book Commercial Zhou Dialogues and left it out, waiting for [Chu Yang] to finish work.
