Chapter 50: Huo Chulan and Her Teacher
“It’s nothing,” Xing Jiuan replied. Her lowered eyes were filled with coldness.
She did not expect to meet her so soon.
Xing Jiuan turned her head and looked over again. There was no one there anymore. Her eyes were slightly dark, and they were filled with complex emotions.
Xing Jiuan turned around and said to Mu Qing beside her, “Senior Brother, let’s go.”
The other three had already gone in, with Xiaoguai being held by Su Yize.
“Okay,” Mu Qing replied softly. Beside Xing Jiuan, he could not help but look at the place where she was looking at earlier.
There was no one there.
His gaze shifted a little as he continued to follow Xing Jiuan in.
…
“Chulan, your design this time is really great. I’m preparing to nominate you for an international award. What do you think?”
The person who spoke was one of Huo Chulan’s mentors. She regarded Huo Chulan very highly. The two of them sat at a coffee shop not far from the hotpot restaurant. They were completely unaware of the situation earlier.
“Of course I’ll agree with what you say, Teacher.” Huo Chulan smiled lightly. “It’s all thanks to your guidance that I’m able to perform so well.”
The teacher was a woman in her forties. She was wearing a smart suit, but her supposedly stern face was full of smiles.
“It’s all because of your hard work and talent. No matter how good a teacher is, they’re just the icing on a cake.”
Huo Chulan only smiled and did not say anything.
Seeing that the other party did not answer, the teacher paused and said, “There’s a new teacher in the department. You know that, right?”
“Teacher, are you talking about Teacher Lin Ling?”
“That’s her.”
“Is something the matter?”
“We… don’t have a good relationship.”
Huo Chulan looked at her and then smiled. “I’m Teacher’s disciple. Of course, I will naturally be on your side.”
Only then did the other party let out a smile.
Xing Jiuan took a few bites and left to play with Xiaoguai.
“Senior Brother, I’m done eating. You guys can continue,” she said to Mu Qing, who was about to ask.
“You only ate so little.” Mu Qing frowned.
“But I’m full,” Xing Jiuan said innocently.
“Little Senior Sister, that bit of food is not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth.”
Su Yize was still growing, so he ate a lot. Xing Jiuan couldn’t compare to him.
Mu Qing did not say anything else. Xing Jiuan was often like this, which made him feel rather helpless. She would be hungry again in the afternoon and would eat then.
Ou Qi always said that she would eat well after being starved for two meals, but she would always make Xing Jiuan some noodles or something else to eat.
Xing Jiuan and Su Yize exchanged a few words before she began to play with Xiaoguai.
Xiaoguai was very energetic. Though Xing Jiuan played with it through the cat bag, it could still play happily.
Xing Jiuan let it out and told the others before carrying it to the side to play.
This private room was very big. When she came here, Xing Jiuan had specially brought two toys for Xiaoguai.
She placed Xiaoguai on the ground and let it play with the toys.
“Meow~” Xiaoguai looked up at her and meowed in a childish voice, not playing with the toys.
“You don’t like them?” Xing Jiuan was a little puzzled.
When she reached over, Xiaoguai rubbed against her hand and held her fingers to play.
From time to time, it would use its teeth to nibble at Xing Jiuan’s fingers. However, it used very little strength. Therefore, it only felt a little itchy.
“So naughty.” Xing Jiuan used her other hand to poke its head.
“Meow~”
Xing Jiuan was helpless against the kitty.
Mu Qing didn’t eat much either and came over quickly.
“Senior Brother?”
“Isn’t Xiaoguai very similar to you?” Mu Qing smiled and sat at the side, looking at the girl and her cat.
“No, it isn’t.”
