So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 1598: Visiting Yuxi

I can’t say that I wanted Chen Mengyan to be my granddaughter-in-law, right? Wouldn’t Liu Weishan be even more offended if I said this?

So, Professor Wang could only helplessly say that he had nothing to do and was just passing by!

“Principal Liu, I…I didn’t mean it. Please reconsider…” said Professor Wang carefully.

“I do not bring private sentiments into the workplace,” said Liu Weishan. This sentence made Professor Wang’s face brighten up a little. However, Liu Weishan’s following words made him freeze!

“However, your conduct has shown that you are not suitable to be the Department Head. You have not an excellent example, instead, you seem to be the opposite of one,” said Liu Weishan. “This is what I have observed through my eyes. Also, I don’t know how much I have yet to witness.”

Professor Wang could only awkwardly smile in response. How could he explain anything at this point? No matter how he explained, it would be regarded as covering up his misdeeds. Hence, he could only remain silent and gaze at Liu Weishan awkwardly, “Principal Liu, I am aware of my mistakes…”

“Alright then, you can go back first. I still have to eat. I will only make the final decision about your matters after discussing it with the heads of the university.” Liu Weishan waved his hand, signaling that Professor Wang could leave.

Professor Wang sullenly left the private room helplessly. He nearly wept but there were no tears in his eyes.

Liu Weishan only started to smile after Professor Wang had left. He did not even let Professor Wang’s matter bother him, “Yang Ming, what’s happening? Did you know that Wang Benwen was coming?”

“I had no idea that Wang Benwen was coming. But, Mengyan mentioned that the professor of one of her classes wanted to introduce his grandson to her as a boyfriend. Most of the time, he would purposely make things difficult for her during lectures. This afternoon, he wanted to treat her to lunch. I asked Mengyan to invite him over here. I was thinking about talking to him nicely. But, I didn’t expect him to have such an attitude,” Yang Ming said with a smile without denying the truth.

“You little kid. Aren’t you borrowing my authority?” Liu Weishan, however, was not furious. This was because Yang Ming did not do anything improper. Wang Benwen, on the other hand, had done something that was out of the line. Wang Benwen had started the war before Yang Ming could even invoke Liu Weishan’s authority.

“Hehe, godfather, you won’t blame me, right?” Yang Ming admitted to it. He was really using Liu Weishan to suppress Wang Benwen. Since Wang Benwen was a professor at the university, he must be working under his godfather’s purview. With Yang Ming’s godfather stepping in, Wang Benwen would not dare to harbor any thoughts of harassing Chen Mengyan again.

but before Yang Ming was able to implement his plan, Professor Wang had appeared out of nowhere and started scolding everyone. So, it turned out that Yang Ming did not need to borrow someone else’s authority. This guy had immediately scolded his godfather, Liu Weishan, badly. How could it end well for him?

“Why would I blame you for this?” Liu Weishan shook his head. “This incident shows that you have matured a lot! I am glad. In the past, you would have rushed to the school and beat Wang Benwen up badly.”

“Ugh…” Yang Ming scratched his head in embarrassment. However, considering his part personality, he might have indeed done something like this.

“Hence, your use of others’ authority shows your progress!” Liu Weishan continued. “It’s just that before I could even take action, Wang Benwen could not restrain himself. Anyhow, this matter has been resolved peacefully. If he troubles Chen Mengyan again, all you need to do is to tell me.”

“Okay, godfather.” Yang Ming nodded. “Mengyan, if something like this happens to you again during my absence, you can just call godfather or Sister Xiao Qing.”

“En…” Chen Mengyan nodded. It was not that she did not think about these options before. She just felt embarrassed to do so as it would inconvenience Liu Weishan.

“Okay, Mengyan. Let’s order immediately. All of us are here,” Yang Ming handed the menu to Chen Mengyan. Yang Ming had picked up Zhou Jiajia and Lin Zhiyun as well after picking up Liu Weishan. As Chen Mengyan was coming with Professor Wang, Yang Ming naturally did not let Zhou Jiajia and Lin Zhiyun look for her.

“I will eat anything that you order…” Chen Mengyan felt embarrassed because of what had just happened. Everyone’s mood was affected as they had waited for her to arrive, and when she did arrive, she had brought Professor Wang along with her.

However, Yang Ming did not mind. He casually ordered a few dishes, and then asked Guo Jianchao to prepare them.

The meal’s atmosphere was pretty good. Liu Weishan probably knew the relationship between Yang Ming, Chen Mengyan, Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia. However, he did not make any comments. As an elder, it would be inappropriate for him to comment on this matter. Yang Ming could handle it by himself.

In the afternoon, Yang Ming drove Liu Weishan, Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun back to campus. He then made a detour to visit Shen Yuxi, and brought along some economic books for her. Most of these books were left behind by Tian Donghua before he left for Donghai. The others belonged to Zhang Bing. All the books were stored upstairs.

Shen Yuxi was very happy to see that Yang Ming remembered her. He even came to see her and brought along so many economics books. Previously, when she talked to Yang Ming, she was just trying her luck. She did not expect Yang Ming to really remember her and bring her the books. With so many things to deal with daily, how could Yang Ming even remember these minor matters?

Since the last time Yang Ming left, even though Shen Yuxi was looking forward to Yang Ming coming to visit her for the second time, she also knew great expectations go hand in hand with great disappointments. Shen Yuxi also admonished herself not to indulge in flights of fancy[1].

It is impossible for Yang Ming to be in a relationship with me. I should just steadily live my life…

As expected, Yang Ming did not visit her house for a long time. Shen Yuxi was both disappointed and at the same time comforting herself. This is normal. It would be terribly abnormal if Yang Ming were to come here enthusiastically…

However, Shen Yuxi did not expect that after such a long time, Yang Ming really came to the door again. He brought over the books as promised previously. This made Shen Yuxi both surprised and delighted.

Shen Yuxi’s mother was also very happy with Yang Ming’s visit. Naturally, she knew what her daughter was thinking about every day. Even though Shen Yuxi refused to admit it, how could Mother Shen not realize it?

But, Mother Shen also knew that her daughter was being carried away by her wishful thinking. This matter was simply unrealistic. Forget about her legs being disabled and her inability to stand, Yang Ming might not even fall for her even if she isn’t disabled.

Despite this, she still hoped that Yang Ming would often come to visit and counsel her daughter. Now, Mother Shen was afraid that Shen Yuxi would do something foolish once she took things too hard. She did not dare to go out to operate the vendor stand. She could only let Father Shen operate the vendor stand alone while she accompanied her daughter at home.
