Gu Nianzhi returned to school but Huo Shao didn't show up and only asked Yin Shixiong to drop her off. Wasn't he supposed to be very busy? Gu Nianzhi was both surprised and dissatisfied. She looked up and sadly watched Huo Shaoheng walk toward hers.
However, Huo Shaoheng didn't look at her; he hadn't expected He Zhichu to arrive already. This man had arrived from abroad too quickly and just in time. Though Huo Shaoheng was irritated, he appeared unaffected and reached out to shake He Zhichu's hand with a smile.
"Professor He? How nice to meet you." He sounded as if they were meeting for the first time even though they had crossed paths several times before. Gu Nianzhi's heart trembled but she remained quiet. Eyes drifting between Huo Shaoheng and He Zhichu's faces, Gu Nianzhi was unsure of what they were doing.
