Chapter 270 - 270, Deep Well Ice
Although she didn’t understand why her cousin was trying to spook her?
Soon enough, the holidays ended, and Nancheng officially entered the golden October.
One day, when Mo Weiyi came to school and met Su Wanwan, the first thing she asked was, “So, did you use the gift I gave you and Mr. Huo yet?”
Su Wanwan was taken aback, “Ah… um… not yet.”
“Why haven’t you used it?” Mo Weiyi furrowed her brows.
Su Wanwan:
She certainly wasn’t going to tell her that she was currently giving someone the silent treatment.
And as for that gift, she had tossed it into a drawer after bringing it home and had never even opened it, so she had no idea what was inside.
“You better use it soon. Let me know how it feels, the pressure, the effects, whether it’s satisfactory.”
Su Wanwan:
Why did this sound more and more off?
“It should work very well, I saw a lot of five-star reviews, remember to use it tonight and tell me the effects…”
“Wanwan.” Zhao Qianqian’s voice suddenly rang out, “So you’re here. Hurry up, I was about to call you. The dean of teaching is asking for you in his office.” Several female classmates from her class were by her side, including Lin Qiao. Su Wanwan immediately stood up, “Weiyi, I’ll go first and find you later.” “Oh.” Mo Weiyi frowned and could only watch as she left.
On the other side, once they were seated, Lin Qiao asked, “Qianqian, do you know why the dean of teaching asked for Su Wanwan?”
“How should I know? I just met him on my way back from an enrichment class, and he told me to have Su Wanwan come over. I guess he wanted to praise her for winning first place in the last performance.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiao was completely upset.
Why did the dean of teaching like Su Wanwan so much?
How could such a lousy dance that was a total violation of the norms possibly score 10 points?
Was it because he knew that Su Wanwan was Professor Su’s niece after the last self-criticism session?
This was obviously favoritism due to special relationships…
After thinking about it, she suddenly stood up again, “I haven’t washed my clothes in the dormitory yet. You guys can eat, I’ll go back first.”

Su Wanwan rushed to the academic building and took the elevator up to the dean’s office.
She knocked on the door, no one answered, but the door opened.
Su Wanwan walked in with a befuddled look. Before she could react, a man’s arm reached out.
“Ah… um!”
Su Wanwan had just screamed when her mouth was covered by that hand.
At the same time, the door was closed and locked.
She was pressed against the door panel.
When she finally saw the handsome face, Su Wanwan was speechless, “Huo Jingshen, are you out of your mind? So childish! You scared the hell out of me!” Damn it!
Childish ghost!
She thought she had run into a robber.
With his head lowered, Huo Jingshen’s voice was deep and seemed somewhat aggrieved, “Finally willing to talk to me?”
Su Wanwan was stunned, so she turned her little cold face to ignore him.
She is ignoring him again!
Feeling impatient, Huo Jingshen suddenly turned stern and severe, “How long are you going to keep this up? Isn’t it enough already?”
Su Wanwan remained silent.
Huo Jingshen said, “Didn’t grandma explain everything to you already? The two families were close and that’s why she gave her a jade necklace on her tenth birthday. Grandma has always been generous with gifts to other children, and grandpa used to criticize her for being a spendthrift.”
Su Wanwan: “…”
Can he really call his own grandmother a spendthrift?
Even though…
Old Madame Huo was indeed a spendthrift, cough cough cough.
Su Wanwan remembered when the elderly lady took her shopping for clothes. It was shocking. Clothes, shoes, bags, she swept through everything and still hadn’t worn them all. Now, the season was about to change.
“Baby,” Huo Jingshen leaned closer, “Hurry up and forgive me.”
Su Wanwan blushed but kept quiet.
What should she say?
Not a word!
“You really are disobedient.”
Suddenly, a sharp ring of the landline phone on the desk interrupted them.
Su Wanwan snapped back to reality, and it dawned on her that this was the dean’s office. She quickly pushed him away.
Huo Jingshen didn’t persist, “What are you doing?”
“The phone…”
“Are you asking me to answer it?”
Su Wanwan: “Uh…”
She definitely couldn’t answer it. Otherwise, wouldn’t that reveal their mischief?
She immediately said, “You should go. I have a class.”
“Class?” Huo Jingshen narrowed his eyes, “But I miss you.”
“This is an office!” Su Wanwan gritted her teeth, “Even if you miss me, you can’t! Hurry up and let go! I haven’t forgiven you yet!”
“Didn’t I explain everything clearly?” Huo Jingshen was getting impatient, his tone turning harsh, “Don’t take advantage, okay?”
“I’m taking advantage?” Su Wanwan was so angry that her eyes were red, “Why didn’t you tell me before?”
“Isn’t it because I was afraid you’d react just like this?” Huo Jingshen responded deftly.
Su Wanwan:
That did make some sense.
The next second.
Damn it.
“Did you say I’m being unreasonable?” Su Wanwan was furious.
Huo Jingshen: “…”
Without realizing it, he had spoken his mind.
