After that day, Xiao Li didn't return to school, spending her days at home reading medical books. She had been a bit lazy these past two months, so she needed to catch up.
Qin Xiao acted as her free tutor.
Two days before the semester started, Xiao Li received a call requesting her to return to school because she was assigned to welcome the new students.
In order to prepare for the reception, Xiao Li had to return early to practice the welcome ceremony with everyone.
Before she knew it, the semester began, and Xiao Li had to report to school early because she needed to help welcome the newcomers, so she had to arrive earlier than others...
The two of them were in the car nearing the campus entrance when Xiao Li got out of the car first. If it was up to Qin Xiao, he would prefer to drive straight to the parking lot and then let Xiao Li get out, but Xiao Li didn't want to attract too much attention. It was the start of the semester, so there were many people at the school.
If they got out of the car together, a lot of people would definitely notice.
Xiao Li insisted on getting out of the car, and Qin Xiao, though a bit helpless, had no choice but to let her go.
Xiao Li got out and ran straight toward the campus entrance. Sitting in the car, Qin Xiao watched her cheerful silhouette, chuckling quietly.
After watching Xiao Li's figure disappear through the campus gates, Qin Xiao then drove into the campus.
Upon entering the campus, Xiao Li ran to find Feng Qing and the others, only to find the three of them chatting intensely and did not notice Xiao Li's arrival at all.
Xiao Li felt helpless and could only quietly stand in her place, waiting for the new students to arrive.
After Feng Qing and the others finished their excited conversation, they finally noticed Xiao Li standing to the side and laughed, "Xiao Lili, when did you get here?
How come we didn't see you?"
Xiao Li scoffed, "Right when you were energetically talking about how to charm the juniors later!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Qing hooked an arm around Xiao Li's neck, "Xiao Lili, you have a good husband at home now, you wouldn't understand our loneliness.
We're about to go on internships, and if we don't hook a handsome junior now, the school's hotties will have nothing to do with us."
Hearing this, Xiao Li rolled her eyes, "Old cows eating young grass, can you really go for that?"
Feng Qing chuckled, "Who knows this better than you?
Did your old man hold back with you, the little cabbage?"
Xiao Li was rendered speechless...
Feng Qing was formidable...
Before long, new students began arriving one after another, but those coming to Xiao Li's group were mostly girls.
Feng Qing's dream of hooking a junior boy was shattered.
Over the two days, newcomers continued to arrive, and that evening the school had arranged a welcome party.
Xiao Li and Feng Qing didn't have any performances assigned; their duty was to oversee the event's progress.
The party included some performances, ending with a professor delivering a speech to the new students.
When that professor took the stage, the hall was filled with gasps...
"So handsome!"
"Is he our teacher?"
"Too handsome..."
Even down below, Feng Qing and the others were cheering, "Wow, when did our school get such a handsome professor?
How come we didn't know?"
Xiao Li glanced up at Qin Xiao and was also a bit surprised; she didn't know Qin Xiao would go on stage.
The schedule didn't mention a professor's speech; usually, only the Principal gives speeches. This must have been a last-minute addition.
On stage, Qin Xiao easily spotted Xiao Li, and after a smile, he started, "Good evening, everyone.
Tonight is your welcome party. The Principal asked me to say a few words, as it's also my welcome party.
I just joined the school to teach this semester, and I hope we newcomers can all take root at the Medical University together."
With Qin Xiao's words finished, applause erupted from below.
Feng Qing, after clapping for a while, clutched her heart, "Heavens, it's so unfair! Such a handsome professor, and he arrives just when we're about to go on internships.
I've wasted three years of eye candy!"
Xiao Li watched this and chuckled without saying a word...
As the party ended, the new students gradually left, and Xiao Li and her friends stayed back to tidy up before leaving...
Walking out of the hall, Feng Qing and Dai Zihan felt a bit exhausted.
"Ah... the welcome party is finally over. We can finally take a proper rest."
Xiao Wenjing doused cold water on the idea, "We can't rest for too long; in a few days, we have exams, and after the exam, we'll head to our internships.
From here on, it'll just get more tiring!"
At these words, Feng Qing and Dai Zihan felt an impending doom!
As they spoke and walked outside, they saw someone standing nearby. Not paying much attention, Feng Qing and her friends thought he was just a senior who hadn't left yet.
But when they saw Xiao Li walking toward that person, the three of them curiously followed.
As they got closer, they realized it was the new handsome professor.
What's going on?
Xiao Li walked up to Qin Xiao, "Why are you waiting here?"
Qin Xiao smiled, "It's quite late, and I couldn't let you walk to the campus gate alone, so I waited here."
Xiao Li chuckled, "This is the campus, what is there to worry about?"
As the two talked, Feng Qing interrupted, "Could the two of you explain what's going on here?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li turned to stand alongside Qin Xiao and pointed at him, "This is Qin Xiao, my husband."
With Xiao Li's words, Feng Qing and the others almost dropped their jaws in shock.
Seeing them like this, Xiao Li turned to Qin Xiao and said, "Look, you scared them."
Qin Xiao nodded, "It seems like I did. It's late today; another day I'll treat them to a meal to apologize properly."
Qin Xiao first spoke to Xiao Li, then turned to Feng Qing and the others, "It's getting late, I'll take Xiao Li home first.
Let's get together another day!"
With that, Qin Xiao left with Xiao Li, leaving Feng Qing and the others in chaos...
Qin Xiao took Xiao Li to the parking lot, and since it was late, thankfully not many students were wandering the campus.
The two got into the car, and Xiao Li, thinking about the dumbfounded look of Feng Qing and friends, laughed quietly to herself...
Seeing her joyful laugh, Qin Xiao also chuckled, "So did you not tell them I'm teaching at the Medical University?"
Xiao Li nodded, "Yeah, if I told them beforehand, how could I have seen such a funny scene?"
The car slowly drove out of the campus, and as soon as they hit the main road, Xiao Li's phone started vibrating constantly...
Xiao Li didn't even need to check her phone to know it must be the three recovering from the shock.
When Xiao Li looked at her phone, sure enough, the friend group chat had exploded.
The three, probably considering Qin Xiao and Xiao Li being together, didn't dare send videos or voice messages, only dared to express their discontent through text...
Feng Ye Piaopiao [Damn you Xiao Li, did you do this on purpose!
Your old man is coming to our school to teach, and you didn't tell us ahead of time.]
Wenjing Vanished [The main point is, your old man is so handsome, and you didn't tell us ahead of time.]
Zhi for Your Heartbeat [The most important thing is we made such fools of ourselves in front of your old man tonight.]
