360: Another Rival (2)

Another Rival (2)

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, she glanced at Ye Tianxin.0

"This is?"

"My sister, Tianxin, your junior. I'm taking her around the school."

Xu Yuan extended her hand with a smile. "Hello, junior. Welcome to Capital University."

Perhaps it was because she liked Li Qingcang, Ye Tianxin was now full of hostility towards any woman close to or acquainted with Li Qingcang.

"Thank you, Elder Sister Xu."

Xu Yuan smiled, then said to Li Qingcang, "Senior, fateful encounters are better than appointments. Since we met today, let's go to the Hunan restaurant behind the school to eat."

"Don't be so generous. I have something else to attend to," Li Qingcang refused.

Li Qingcang didn't like being too close to other women, especially since he wasn't in a good mood today. He was a little annoyed when he saw any woman.

"Senior, I want to make the best of our friendship. May I?" Xu Yuan appeared somewhat aggrieved.

One had to know that when Li Qingcang was in college, he was every girl's crush. Every girl dreamed of having him as a boyfriend.

He had good grades and was good at sports. All his work was done exceptionally well.

Although he was a little aloof, it did not matter. There was nothing he could do that would stop them from fawning over him.

"Thank you. I got it," Li Qingcang responded stoically. "We'll talk another day."

Standing in place, Xu Yuan sadly stared at the backs of Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin as they left.

Her heart was crushed after meeting Li Qingcang again. She still liked him so much. When she saw him, her heart beat wildly.

"Elder Brother Li, Elder Sister Xu is very beautiful."

Li Qingcang furrowed his eyebrows and looked at Ye Tianxin seriously. Ye Tianxin blushed.

"Not as pretty as you."

Li Qingcang's words eased up Ye Tianxin's worries.

"Elder Brother Li, when you used to go here, did you often eat at the Hunan restaurant that Elder Sister Xu mentioned?"

"No."

Li Qingcang's voice sounded deep like a cello.

"When doing experiments, the professor would occasionally take us there to eat. I went there about three times."

"How's the food? Good?" Ye Tianxin asked.

Li Qingcang replied, "Spicy."

Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang talked and laughed. In Xu Yuan's eyes, they appeared so happy. Watching their figures drifting away from a distance, she stood at the balcony on the second floor.

After a while, she turned around and went to the professor's office.

"Professor, you wouldn't believe who I just bumped into!" Xu Yuan shared excitedly. 

The gray-haired professor took off his glasses, then rubbed the bridge of his nose. "Who?"

"Your proud student Li Qingcang."

The professor was taken aback, and it took him a long time to answer. "He was so full of potential. How can it be... Nothing… Don't mention him in front of me."

When he thought of how after graduation, the promising apprentice who he had cultivated so carefully didn't venture into the field he studied but joined the army instead, he became overwhelmed with regret.

"Professor, Elder Brother chose to do what he really wanted. You see, Elder Brother has always respected you all these years."

The professor stood up and said coldly, "If he really respected me, then he would come back."

Xu Yuan walked towards the professor and held his arm. Then, she said softly, "Dad, why are you so stubborn? This time, Elder Brother came back to be the chief instructor of the military training. Can't you at least try to be professional around him?"
