Volume 9: Heart-pounding Steps! Chapter 88: Suddenly Sentimental!

  Lin Xiangqi happened to be lying on the balcony of the second floor, breathing in fresh air, and heard Grandpa's conversation with Qin Luo. She finally couldn't help but throw out a pot of Kalanchoe from her windowsill.

  These two people are too shameless. The matter is not like that at all, they themselves were clearly -----

  Suddenly, a question popped into Lin Xuanxi's mind.

  Since he was forced into it, why didn't he resist him from the very beginning?

  Obviously not that kind of girl who faints at the touch of a man, she should have reacted the fastest, why didn't she push him away in the first place?

  Didn't we agree to give up on love?

  But why did Qin Luo suddenly treat himself like that?

  Can it be said that this is having a good feeling about oneself?

  If it's really like that, then he and Li Jiancheng --

  Lin Xun Creek irritably scratched his hair and threw these thorny problems behind his mind.

  Sitting in the passenger seat, Qin Luo occasionally stole glances at Lin Huanxi's expression.

  Unfortunately, she always had a straight face and an expressionless look, making it impossible for Qin Luo to guess her true thoughts about the matter.

  However, he knew that Lin Xuanji could do something like smashing a flower pot, which proved that she had hatred or anger in her heart.

  Either way, it proves that his trick has taken effect.

  In the short term, she found it difficult to re-enter the state of emotional closure that required a stillness like stagnant water.

  As long as Qin Luo was given time, he had confidence in curing her.

  The car stopped in front of the school gate, Lin Xuanxi sat upright in the passenger seat, without even looking at Qin Luo.

  "Is there something you want to tell me?" Qin Luo asked aloud when he saw Lin Huanxi's expression.

  "Get off the bus."

  It turned out that this woman wanted to get off at the school gate, so as not to cause a commotion among students when they arrived at their office building.

  Qin Luo unfastened his seatbelt and smiled: "Let's have lunch together at noon."

  "It's okay, I don't need it."

  "It's okay, I'll pay."

  "It's okay, I don't need it."

  "Don't mind troubling me. Anyway, I have to eat too."

  When Lin Xue's BMW drove into the campus, Qin Luo was still walking slowly towards the office building of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Academy.

  Qin Luo arrived at the office when a group of teachers were enthusiastically discussing something.

  Still with Mr. Zhu as the main character, everyone who talks to him has a smiling face.

  Mr. Zhu also changed his previous sloppy appearance, got a new haircut, wore a brand-new white dress shirt and black suit pants, with shiny leather shoes, looking like he was in high spirits on a happy occasion.

  As soon as Qin Luo walked in, everyone's laughter and chatter came to an abrupt halt.

  They looked at Qin Luo as if they were looking at a monster. Obviously, they all thought that Qin Luo didn't belong to this circle.

  Qin Luo didn't think much of it and took his textbook from the desk and walked out.

  "Teacher Qin, you're here." In the corridor, they bumped into office clerk Xiao Min. The little girl warmly greeted Qin Luo with a smile. She was also the only colleague in the office who had a relatively close relationship with Qin Luo.

  "Yes, go to class." Qin Luo said with a smile.

  "Teacher Qin, I told my classmates that you and the successor of Taiyi Needle Technique are colleagues, but they don't believe me. It's so infuriating! They asked me to invite you out for dinner, when do you have time? Give me some face, okay? Let me also enjoy the glory for once?" Little Mian said with a pleading expression.

  "Alright. Let's see when we have time." Qin Luo smiled and nodded. He didn't have many friends in Yanjing, so he cherished the kindness that Xiao Min had shown him multiple times.

  "Haha, it's settled then! Teacher Qin is not allowed to be lazy." Little Mian said happily.

  "Definitely." Qin Luo said with certainty.

  Arriving at the classroom, it was still a crowded scene. Moreover, as Qin Luo's reputation grew bigger and bigger, more and more students came to audit his classes.

  Now, a small classroom is far from meeting the students' requirements. Qin Luo is also preparing to ask the department for a medium-sized tiered classroom, so as to maximize the accommodation of those who like traditional Chinese medicine.

  Qin Luo never thought of hiding his skills, on the contrary, he hoped that more and more students who liked traditional Chinese medicine would come to learn from him, so that traditional Chinese medicine could be popularized.

  As long as they need it, he can give it. However, the key is that you have to like traditional Chinese medicine. If you're just here for the excitement, then forget it.

  What made Qin Luo feel even more relieved was that Wang Jiujiu's figure appeared in the first row. This made Qin Luo feel a little more at ease, it seemed that she hadn't encountered any problems. She had just skipped class occasionally.

  Qin Luo smiled at her, and she responded with a sweet smile.

  Qin Luo seemed to have taken a tranquilizer and began his lesson.

  After class, Wang Jiujui chased out of the classroom again.

  "Teacher Qin, I've brought you some tea." The girl said with a smile as she pulled out a thermos from her bag.

  "How come you're really prepared? It's too troublesome." Qin Luo said.

  "Of course, I'm prepared. How can I go back on my word?" Wang Jiujin said with a smile. When he smiled, two adorable little dimples appeared on his cheeks, and his long eyelashes fluttered, making him extremely charming.

  Qin Luo thought that if Wang Jiujiu grew up and matured a bit more, she would definitely be as enchanting as her mother.

  Moreover, their mother-daughter personalities are so similar.

  "Thank you." Overwhelmed by the kindness, Qin Luo had no choice but to twist open the cap and start drinking.

  "What's with the politeness? We're friends anyway." Wang Jiujin shrugged casually.

  "Oh. By the way, why didn't you come to class yesterday?" Qin Luo asked with concern.

  "Ah, Teacher Qin, you've discovered me?" Wang Jiujiao said with a deliberately gloomy face. But in his heart, he was filled with sweetness. It turned out that he had been paying attention to whether she existed or not.

  "Right. From now on, if you want to skip class, ask me for leave first. Otherwise, I'll deduct your points." Qin Luo said jokingly.

  "Don't worry, I'll definitely ask for leave later." Wang Jiujiao said reassuringly. As for other teachers, she could ignore them.

  Qin Luo never refused what she said.

  Wang Jiujiao seemed to have suddenly remembered something and said: "Right, Teacher Qin-----"

  But unfortunately, Qin Luo's phone in his pocket rang out again.

  "You answer the phone first." Wang Jiujiao said awkwardly. Silently lamenting that he was really unlucky, always encountering such things.

  "You go first." Qin Luo said, holding his phone in his hand, without immediately answering it, and spoke to Wang Jiujin.

  "It's okay. Teacher Qin, you go ahead and answer the phone first. Maybe someone is looking for you with something important. I can wait." Wang Jiujiao said considerately.

  Qin Luo nodded and answered the phone.

  "Master brother, it's me, Yang Xin. Are you busy today?" Wang Yang Xin's voice came over.

  "It's okay. Anything wrong?" Qin Luo asked.

  The phone call was made by Wang Yangxin, which made Qin Luo slightly surprised and didn't know why he called himself at this time.

  "Of course something's happened. You haven't forgotten, have you?" Wang Nang exclaimed in alarm.

  "What's wrong?" Qin Luo asked. He didn't seem to have forgotten anything important.

  "Today is the day of the Huaxia Traditional Chinese Medicine Conference, you are going to represent the expert group and make a speech at the meeting. You must have made some preparations, right?"

  "No one told me about this." Qin Luo said with a bitter smile. At that time, Lao Zhuo did mention something like this to himself, but no one told him the specific meeting time. And teachers like Zhu in school usually didn't get along with him and wouldn't discuss such things in front of him.

  No wonder Teacher Zhu dressed up so beautifully today, as if she's rejuvenated and experiencing a second spring. She must be attending that prestigious conference in the country.

  "Didn't anyone tell you? My grandfather thought that Old Zhuo and the others had already told you. Maybe those old men all think this way. What to do now? The meeting is scheduled for 3 pm this afternoon, and your speech draft hasn't been prepared yet. Is it still possible?" Wang Yangxin asked worriedly.

  Qin Luo thought for a moment and said, "Probably no problem. I'm not very used to using a speech draft."

  Upon hearing Qin Luo's casual tone, Wang Yangxin became worried and said: "Brother, you'd better take this seriously. This conference is of a very high standard, with top Chinese medicine experts and renowned professors from all over the country attending. There will also be high-ranking officials from the Health Department and Ministry of Health - you should prepare yourself."

  "Don't worry. I've been preparing for over twenty years." Qin Luo said nonchalantly, but in his heart, he was grateful for Wang Yangxin's advice.

  The two had some conflicts and estrangements before, but now they have become fellow disciples, it has to be said that fate is a very mysterious thing.

  "Alright then. I'll meet you at the entrance of the Medical University at 2 o'clock this afternoon and take you to the venue," said Wang Yangxin.

  "Alright, I'll have to trouble you then."

  "Don't be polite. As fellow disciples of the same master, it's only right." Wang Yangxin said with a smile.

  He hung up the phone and gave a apologetic smile to the girl standing in front of him, asking: "Jiu Jiu, now that I can talk. What did you want to see me about?"

  When Wang Jiujui called Qin Luo, she had been controlling her emotions. Now, she was able to calm down and said: "Teacher Qin, are you free tomorrow night?"

  "Hmm? What's wrong?" Qin Luo asked.

  "It's like this. If you have time tomorrow night, my mom said - please come back for a meal."

  "Go back for dinner?" Qin Luo was startled. Having dinner at the military commander's house shouldn't be a problem, right?

  If he says something wrong or does something wrong, will Wang Jiujin's father directly let people pull him out and kill him?

  "Yes." Wang Jiujin nodded.

  "Why?"

  "Because it's my mom's birthday tomorrow, she said to find a few people to go back and have a lively time."

  "Alright then. I'll definitely go tomorrow." Qin Luo nodded. If there were a lot of people, then it wouldn't be a problem.

  When the time comes, I'll go and speak less, don't drink wine, and presumably nothing dangerous will happen.

  "Thank you, Teacher Qin. Then I'll send a car to pick you up tomorrow night." Wang Jiujin said excitedly after seeing Qin Luo agree.

  "What's there to thank? It should be me thanking you instead." Qin Luo said with a smile.

  After Qin Luo walked away, Wang Jiujin took out her phone and dialed her mother's number, saying happily: "Zhang Yiyi, hurry up and prepare. Teacher Qin has agreed to come to our house for dinner tomorrow night."

  "Really? Yeah, that's great. I was just saying that if this fails, I'll postpone my birthday for another two days. I don't believe that kid is busy every day." Zhang Yiyi said excitedly on the other end of the phone.

  Thinking of Zhang Yi's birthday being postponed for his own sake, Wang Jiujiu's heart felt a little moist.

  "Mom, thank you." Wang Jiujin said into the receiver.

  The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

  "Hey, Zhang Yi, what's wrong?" Wang Jiujin asked worriedly.

  "Dead child, why are you suddenly being so sentimental?" Zhang Yi said tearfully. "You're just an egg I laid. For your sake, I'd even go stab someone else twice. Why be polite to your own mother? Dead child, you have to make me cry before you're satisfied. How annoying."
