Chapter 273: Professor Lu Qingyi is the 273rd professor of Harderland_1

Everyone praised Ruan Qingyang for her beauty, talent, capability, and intelligence... All the commendations were for Ruan Qingyang, and she was merely a foil.

Being twins, comparisons were inevitable.

Seeing Ruan Qingyang receiving praises from others, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of jealousy and resentment towards Ruan Qingyang.

She wanted to be happy too, but she really couldn’t bring herself to feel this way.

"Qingyang outshines me. When I’m with her, she’s always the standout, always the most attention-grabbing. I’ve never felt jealous, instead I feel happy to have her as a best friend."

Wen Wanyu suddenly spoke up. As she looked at Yao Meishu, her facial expression was unusually complicated.

Yao Meishu moved her lips, wanting to say something, but closed her mouth upon seeing Lu Yao’s expression.

"Aunt Wen, when we’re back, could you show me my mother’s pictures?"

Lu Qingyi looked at Wen Wanyu, a gentle smile on her face.

She must have been expected by others too.

Wen Wanyu nodded, "All right."

"I’ll wait outside."

After saying that, Wen Wanyu walked out, closing the door behind her.

The current matter had nothing to do with her, staying would only mean listening.

"Qingyi, I’m sorry."

Lu Yao let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with remorse as he looked at Lu Qingyi.

Because of his feelings for Yao Meishu, he chose to abandon what he thought was his biological daughter at the time.

"I’m sorry, but I don’t have a father."

Lu Qingyi’s expression was indifferent, as was her gaze at Lu Yao.

Lu Yao and Yao Meishu’s existence as so-called parents no longer existed in her eyes. Now knowing that they weren’t, she felt somewhat relieved.

"I... "

Lu Yao clenched his fists tightly, words failing him.

"After high school graduation, the child directly attended university, Hardrick. Before returning, the child had been serving as professor Hardrick. I believe you’re familiar with Professor Harderland of Hardrick University? Yes, the child is that mythical Professor Lu from Hardrick."

Xu Boyan was not usually talkative, but when it came to Lu Qingyi, he could talk endlessly about her.

The child was so outstanding, he felt especially proud for her.

Entered the university right after middle school graduation?

Hardrick?

Professor Lu from Harderland?

With the revelation of these few short sentences, Yao Meishu and Lu Yao felt as if they were struck by something; they were both completely dumbfounded.

How can this be?

Lu Qingyi was still so young, not even twenty.

Yao Meishu clenched her fists, biting her lips tightly. When she looked at Lu Qingyi, her gaze was filled with frustration.

Ruan Qingyang’s daughter was indeed smarter than her. Ruan Qingyang’s daughter was even more outstanding than Ruan Qingyang.

Back in the day, Ruan Qingyang only attended high school for one year before taking the university entrance exams. Her grades were phenomenal.

She excelled in her medical studies despite her young age. She had received numerous awards and honors that had made Yao Meishu jealous.

Yao Meishu believed in Xu Boyan’s words completely. Since Ruan Qingyang was exceptional back then, Lu Qingyi was likely to be even more remarkable.

"How... How is this possible?"

Lu Yao looked incredulously at Xu Boyan and Lu Qingyi, he was somewhat in disbelief.

Lu Qingyi, this child, was way too accomplished, wasn’t she?

Without a word, Xu Boyan took Lu Qingyi’s hand and left the villa. Everything that had to be said was said, he didn’t want to waste his breath on anything else.

"Xu Boyan, let’s go have some skewers?"

Lu Qingyi looked up at Xu Boyan as they left the villa’s main doors.

It had been a long time since she last had skewers, she was suddenly craving them.

Xu Boyan clasped Lu Qingyi’s hand tighter, "Sure, what my girlfriend says."

"I was actually thinking of waiting for you guys to go back to Kyoto together, but since you want to go get skewers, I guess I’ll leave first."

Wen Wanyu had been waiting at the door ever since she came out, watching the young couple holding hands, she sighed slightly.

Being young was truly a blessing.

"Auntie Wen, why don’t you join us? I’m curious about my mother’s stories."

Lu Qingyi wore a smile as she said to Wen Wanyu, she was quite curious about what kind of person Ruan Qingyang was.

"I won’t be interrupting, will I?"

Wen Wanyu shifted her gaze onto Xu Boyan and chuckled behind her hand.

Xu Boyan: "No, you won’t."

Actually, he really wanted to refuse, but he didn’t find it fitting to voice out in front of Lu Qingyi.

Ah, for his little friend’s sake, her mood was the most important.

"Aunt Wen, what do you like to eat?"

Lu Qingyi wasn’t sure if Wen Wanyu would eat those roadside skewers, so she asked.

Wen Wanyu was, after all, a lady of high society. Even though it had been many years since she last went home, she might not be used to these street-side snacks.

"Let’s go have skewers, I can handle street-side food."

Wen Wanyu smiled lightly.

She had been hanging out with Ruan Qingyang since childhood, and Ruan Qingyang’s favourite was street food. She often took her out to eat.

Initially, Wen Wanyu wasn’t used to it, but under Ruan Qingyang’s coaxing, she slowly got sucked in and couldn’t escape.

She started finding it hard to stomach the luxurious delicacy of the dining table and began to favour homemade small dishes instead.

Suddenly, Wen Wanyu asked: "Qingyi, do you eat meat?"

Lu Qingyi: "I prefer vegetables."

Wen Wanyu laughed lightly: "Just like her mother, the daughter has similar taste."

Ruan Qingyang didn’t like eating lavish dishes daily, she preferred vegetables, especially green peppers.

She didn’t like to eat meat, but she occasionally did—street side skewers in particular, which she found most delicious.

Ruan Qingyang had strange tastes. She was picky, yet she was easy to please as her favourite foods were not expensive.

"Wait, are you allergic to shrimp?"

Wen Wanyu asked, as if she remembered something.

Lu Qingyi nodded, "I always found it strange that everyone else liked shrimp, and I was the only exception."

Recalling those past incongruities, Lu Qingyi felt a deep sense of helplessness.

"Qingyang actually loves shrimp very much, but she’s allergic to it. She kept it from me and snuck out to eat it. She studied medicine, so knew how to avoid life-threatening situations."

Remembering Ruan Qingyang’s past behaviours, Wen Wanyu found it extremely amusing.

Ruan Qingyang’s face had broken out several times, but she never learned her lesson. Time after time, she went back for more, just for the sake of shrimp.

"In the future, behave, and don’t let me worry, okay?"

Xu Boyan diverted his gaze back onto Lu Qingyi. He looked at the girl with an inscrutable smile.

He knew that Lu Qingyi too had thought along those lines. From the way she looked at the shrimp, Xu Boyan knew that Lu Qingyi liked shrimp.
