Chapter 377: A Difficult Request To Reject, A Slap To The Face
Seeing that Qin Shu was about to leave, Han Xiao stood up. His ink-colored eyes stared at Qin Shu’s slender back. This was the first time he had made a request to someone.
It had nothing to do with pure curiosity.
It was only because he felt that she was a bit similar to Little Munchkin, so he wanted to see if she looked similar to Little Munchkin with her full face.
Qin Shu’s footsteps stopped, and her fingers that were hooked around her bag tightened a little. It was just a face, and there was nothing about whether one could see it or not. It was just that when she thought of Fu Tingyu, she was a little hesitant.
Because he did not want others to see her face.
Last time in the small study, she could tell from his reaction.
She was hesitant because Han Xiao was her teacher. From the beginning, when she did not see his face, her impression of him was very good.
Qin Shu slowly turned around and looked at Han Xiao. His height was about the same as Fu Tingyu’s height, so when looking at him, she also had to raise her head.
“Is it because you think that I’m a little similar to Little Munchkin that you talk about, and so you want to see me?”
“Mm.” Han Xiao did not deny it. She looked at the glasses on Qin Shu’s nose bridge. The black frame was a little wide, covering most of her eyebrows and eyes.
Qin Shu heard Han Xiao’s straightforwardness, but she did not think much of it. “Then I think there’s no need to look at it, because I’m not. Rather if you looked, it’ll mislead you.”
Han Xiao pursed his thin lips. His request was indeed a little too much, and it was reasonable to be rejected. However, he still wanted to see her full face. “You have your reasons to reject it. I only want to see it.”
“I…” Qin Shu did not know how to reject such a persistent Han Xiao. If it was someone she was not familiar with, she could reject him outright.
However, she had already rejected Han Xiao once. If she rejected him again, it would appear that she was being too deliberate.
At this moment, a phone suddenly rang. Han Xiao frowned and looked down at the desk. His gaze went to the caller ID on the phone screen. It was the old man.
The phone vibrated as if it was showing how anxious the other party was.
“Let me answer the call.”
Han Xiao picked up the phone and answered it. Just as he placed it by his ear, she heard a slightly aged voice.
“It’s time to come back.”
Han Xiao held his phone tightly and turned to walk out of the classroom. “Grandfather, I don’t want to go back yet.”
“I’ve given you enough time.”
“I’ve agreed to the Mu family’s marriage. I’ll hold the engagement ceremony when I get back, as well as your mother.”
“Grandfather, I won’t get engaged to her.”
Han Xiao was not a talkative person. Even if it was his grandfather, his words were very direct and concise.
Qin Shu stood where she was. She heard him call his grandfather just now. It must have been a call from his grandfather.
Not long after, Han Xiao walked in from outside the classroom and stood in front of Qin Shu. There was a hint of apology in his voice. “Something happened at home. I have to go back and take care of it. I might not be able to attend class for the next few days. I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
Qin Shu laughed lightheartedly. “No problem, you do your stuff. It’s just right for me to just digest the lessons in these few days, and relax too.”
“Hm?”Hanxiao looked at Qin Shu’s curved mouth, and can only suppress the idea wanting to see her full face. He began to pack his things and turned to leave.
Looking at the slender figure disappear through the classroom door, Qin Shu let out a sigh of relief, buckled her backpack belt, and walked out of the classroom.

Qin Shu returned to the dormitory and saw several students chatting in the corridor. The few girls who had asked her for Junli’s contact and Mu Ke were there.
She just briefly swept a glance before pushing the dormitory door open to walk in.
Seeing that Qin Shu had come back, Mu Ke deliberately said in a low voice. “She kept a pet in the dormitory, smells so terrible, and she also flirts with few boys.”
“If one doesn’t keep a pet properly, the smell is indeed quite bad.”
“We asked her for Jun Li’s contact information before, but she deliberately didn’t give it to us. Maybe she didn’t have Professor Jun’s contact information and was deliberately showing off.”
“I also asked her about her relationship with Senior Qiao, but she didn’t tell me. I think she just wants to have multiple partners at once. This kind of woman is the most disgusting.”
“I also think she’s quite disgusting. From the beginning, she relied on her injured leg to get Professor Jun to send her to the dormitory. Then we didn’t see her these few days?”
“Professor Jun is a treasure. Her identity, background, or her looks, how could she be a match for him?” Mu Ke sneered.
Just as they were discussing, a slender figure walked out from the corner of the stairs. In his hand was a plastic bag and an exquisite box of desserts.
One of the girls who was called He Xia was the first to see the person and could not help but cover her mouth. “Jun, Professor Jun is here.”
Mu Ke sneered. “How could Professor Jun be here? Don’t be ridiculous.”
“Exactly. Who is Professor Jun? How could he be here in the girls’ dormitory?”
He Xia’s face was flushed red. She pointed behind them and because of her excitement, her voice trembled. “It’s true. You all turn around and take a look.”
“…really?”
Mu Ke and the others turned around doubtfully. When they saw Jun Li walking towards them, they were all stunned.
Jun Li had an elegant and refined temperament. His looks were off the charts, and his pair of purple eyes, which shone with a gentle charm, attracted the gazes of most girls.
This was the first time Mu Ke had seen Jun Li up close, and was uncontrollably excited. “Really, it’s really Professor Jun.”
He Xia looked at Jun Li and said to Mu Ke, “Professor Jun seems to be going to your dormitory.”
Just as He Xia finished speaking, Jun Li’s slender figure stopped at the entrance of Dormitory 205. He raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Knock knock…
After Qin Shu returned to the dormitory, she prepared food for Boss. Hearing two knocks on the door, she turned her head to look at the tightly shut dormitory door. A person who would knock on the door was definitely not Mu Ke. Then who could it be?
She stood up doubtfully and walked to the dormitory door. When she opened the door, she was a little surprised to see Jun Li standing at the door.
“Why are you here?”
Jun Li raised up the cake box and bag of snacks in his hand. “On my way back, I passed by a dessert shop. Their strawberry cake tastes pretty good, so I bought one. I guess you’d like it.”
Qin Shu was a little at a loss. Looking at the exquisitely packaged cake box, one side was transparent, and the strawberry cake inside could be clearly seen. It was very tempting.
She did like to eat it.
“Are you embarrassed?” Jun Li seemed to see through Qin Shu’s thoughts and chuckled. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. My little sister also likes to eat strawberry cake. When I saw it, I bought it one on a whim. In the end, I realised that I don’t eat strawberry cake myself.”
Qin Shu vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Jun Li’s words. She looked at Jun Li in confusion. “Didn’t you buy it because your sister likes it? It has nothing to do with whether you like it or not, right?”
Jun Li lowered his eyes and the smile on his lips gradually faded. “I already haven’t seen her for seven years.”
“She…” Qin Shu saw the sadness on Jun Li’s face and knew that she should not have mentioned it. She hurriedly reached out to receive the cake box and bag of snacks from Jun Li.
