Chapter 453: Chapter 453 Teacher-Student Romance (1)_1

Xia Wan’an shook her head in bewilderment. She only knew that Han Jingnian’s older brother passed away when Han Jingnian was about ten years old, but she didn’t know the reason for his death.

"Madam, the second young master was a medical genius. Xie Lin grew up by his side, and his entire repertoire of medical skills was taught directly by the second young master. Mom Zhang used to say second young master was incredibly soft-hearted, the polar opposite of CEO Han. The colder CEO Han is to people, the kinder the second young master was. Mom Zhang also said, the second young master was a ray of sunshine, extremely good-tempered, always gentle when speaking to anyone... It’s a pity, the second young master died in an accident during a rescue mission. If he was still around, he might have even cured CEO Han’s Achluophobia..."

After sighing deeply in regret, Zhang Te picked up his teacup and drunk several cups of tea more like a depressed man drinking liquor. He then turned to Xia Wan’an and spoke, "Oh right, madam, let me tell you, second young master had a girlfriend. However, he passed away before he could bring her home. Because they were only in a dating stage and not yet discussing marriage, therefore we really don’t know much about her. But my mom mentioned once when she was chatting with old Madam, the second young master’s girlfriend was very beautiful and eight years younger than him. The second young master used to call her Xiaoqing. As for which ’Qing’ she is, no one knows."

The information conveyed by Zhang Te was too much, too explosive for Xia Wan’an to digest all at once.

While she was turning over his words in her mind, Zhang Te suddenly chuckled, leaned in close to Xia Wan’an’s face and said in a gossiping tone: "Madam, the second young master and his Xiaoqing were in a teacher-student romance..."

At the sound of Zhang Te’s words settling in the air, the phone he had casually placed on the coffee table suddenly rang.

Upon hearing it, Xia Wan’an instinctively glanced at the screen of Zhang Te’s phone. When she saw the three words "unknown name", she didn’t think much of it and commented casually: "Oh Zhang Te, so you also receive cold calls?"

Zhang Te, who was looking at the phone screen right after Xia Wan’an, said nothing. However, his fingertips gripping the teacup tightened involuntarily.

The call came from that... unisex, eerie person.

"Zhang Te, what are you daydreaming about? It’s obvious, this call is definitely an ad or a telemarketing call. I get them all the time..." Xia Wan’an extended her hand towards the still-vibrating phone on the table: "If you don’t believe me, I’ll help you answer it..."

"Don’t touch it!" Zhang Te suddenly raised his voice.

Xia Wan’an jumped in fright and turned to look at Zhang Te.

Realizing that he had lost his composure, Zhang Te quickly composed himself and hurriedly said, "Madam, what I meant was, this is indeed a cold call. There’s no need for you to answer it. I’ve received it several times before..."

With that, Zhang Te reached out, ended the call directly, and promptly switched his phone to silent mode before putting it in his pocket.

Shortly after, his pocket started vibrating again.

Pretending nothing had happened, he continued brewing a pot of tea before raising his head to look at Xia Wan’an: "Madam, please wait here for a moment. I am going to use the restroom, I will return soon."

...

Zhang Te didn’t go to the bathroom, but instead found a secluded area where no one would find him, and answered the still-ringing phone in his pocket.
