Chapter 377: Chapter 175: Master of Time Management_3
The times when we chatted idly, goofed around, and joked with each other had diminished; we rushed to and from meals and classes, but it didn’t make anyone feel distant. On the contrary, there emerged an increasingly composed and credible quality, as if everything was under control, naturally arising.
Gao quietly muttered, "Without Goddess Yue, Huai doesn’t even hang out with us anymore."
Lu scoffed, "Wait until Goddess Yue comes back, he’s even less likely to hang out with you guys. Hurry up and find a partner, you single dogs!"
Sixteen guys, fourteen of them instantly furious.
Who gave you the courage to mock us like that?
Just about to give him a thrashing, Lu Yitian’s girlfriend, Luxiaojing, stepped forward with her hands on her hips, her eyes glaring and eyebrows raised: "Are you bullying my boyfriend again?"
Birds and beasts scattered, covering their faces as they fled.
However, unbeknownst to them during their ruckus, Gu Jiuyue had already returned to Beijing.
On the afternoon of the 10th, she excitedly made a video call to Su Huai: "Huaihuai, I’m back!"
Having not seen each other for many days, she was quite excited.
Su Huai glanced at the background of the video, noticing she wasn’t at Professor Cheng’s house, so he took the initiative to ask, "Where are you? Is it convenient for me to come see you?"
Gu Jiuyue looked over her shoulder and lowered her voice, "I’m at Xiangshan Villa, my dad came back with me, he hasn’t left yet..."
Meaning it’s not convenient, huh?
Gou Huai couldn’t help but laugh when he thought of Gu Tongshu, grinning, he asked, "So when are you coming back to school?"
"Tonight, do you want to come over to grandma’s house for dinner?"
In fact, Su Huai’s Favorability Rating towards her wasn’t in high demand anymore. 90+80+90=260, no matter whether it was Chen Nuanhan or Pei Shuyu who broke through 100 points first, the system would upgrade immediately.
But he muttered to himself: The 90+ from Gugu and the Favorability Lucky Wheel will definitely yield something good; let’s charm her for a few more days...
So, he easily convinced himself, nodding cheerfully.
"Sure, but don’t go to any trouble, just home cooking will do."
Gu Jiuyue’s eyes crinkled with laughter: "Okay, see you tonight."
She quickly hung up the video call, and Gou Huai felt a twinge of annoyance: Gu Tongshu, you control freak, who are you guarding against? I’m not interested in your daughter like that!
The saying goes, the pot calls the kettle black, very fitting.
Anyway, around 4 p.m., Su Huai was already looking forward to that meal, but, what if Gu Tongshu was also at the in-laws tonight? What then?
After some thought, Gou Huai decided to bring along a companion who could withstand bombardments and survive lightning strikes... a meat shield (√).
He sauntered over to the main campus teaching building and knocked on Zhang Yaowen’s door.
"Teacher, Professor Cheng invited me over for dinner, and I’m a bit nervous, do you have plans tonight?"
Zhang Yaowen was puzzled, "It’s just a dinner, what’s there to be nervous about?"
With a grim expression, Su Huai replied, "It’s because I didn’t take good care of Gu when we were out playing and she got sick. Her cold still hasn’t completely cleared up, and it’s weighing on my mind..."
Zhang had no wish to get involved in such matters and immediately gestured with his hands, "What use would it be for me to go? To join them in criticizing you?"
Su Huai exaggerated his concern, "I’m not afraid of what Professor Cheng might do, but I’m afraid Gu Uncle might also be there. If he starts glaring and bristling at me, how would I cope?"
As soon as he heard the words "Gu Uncle," Zhang immediately got excited.
"Gu Tongshu is back too?"
"Yeah, yeah!"
Su Huai nodded vigorously, looking genuinely apprehensive: "I heard he’s really protective of Gu. When we were in Sanya, playing in the sea and the sky led to her catching a cold. Gu Uncle might just have it out for me."
Zhang Yaowen immediately took off his glasses, his eyes sparking with eagerness.
"Is that the situation? Su, how do you get along with Gu?"
With a conflicted face, Su Huai said, "Pretty well, I guess? She gets along fine with me and doesn’t blame me, but I just feel so guilty..."
With a bang, Zhang Yaowen stood up, slamming the table.
"She doesn’t blame you, so what right does Gu Tongshu have to make unfounded accusations? Su, don’t panic, I’ll accompany you!"
Perfect, the lightning rod was in place, the comedy of the evening definitely wouldn’t be at my expense, let’s go!
