Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 566 Loving someone needs no reason

"One yard owned by a yard."

"One thing at a time, rewards and punishments clearly defined, right?"

"You studied very hard in high school, but you didn't take it seriously in college. I only said a few words to you because I saw that you didn't bring your books even though it was almost finals... and you even mimicked my speech."

"..."

Looking at Bai Qingxia's eyes, Lu Yuanqiu suddenly couldn't help but shut his mouth again.

Yes, that's it. When a girl finishes saying something with a slightly aggrieved tone and then turns her beautiful, clear eyes toward you questioning you, the destructive power contained within is simply boundless.

Lu Yuanqiu really wanted to list Bai Qingxia's aggrieved little expression and tone of voice among the ten most cruel tortures in ancient times.

"I was wrong." He clasped his hands together, his fingertips touching his forehead.

Seeing that he admitted his mistake, Bai Qingxia's expression softened and her eyes became gentler, but her tone still carried a hint of reproach: "...I will continue to tutor you in this semester's subjects tomorrow. There is less than a month until the exam, so be more serious."

"Received." After Lu Yuanqiu finished speaking, he glanced at the expression on her face. Bai Qingxia suddenly clenched her fist and gently tapped Lu Yuanqiu's forearm. Lu Yuanqiu lifted his forearm, which was pressing down on the textbook, and Bai Qingxia then turned to the next page, glancing at Lu Yuanqiu with her eyes raised.

Seeing her acting a little grumpy, Lu Yuanqiu was immediately amused. He leaned forward and deliberately pushed Bai Qingxia to the side with his shoulder. Bai Qingxia lowered her eyebrows and pushed him back with her shoulder. As she pushed, a smile appeared on her lips. The two looked like they were fighting for the right to use the book on Ideological and Moral Cultivation on the table.

Noticing the commotion beside her, Chi Caocao craned her neck and peeked at the two people struggling against each other.

As she watched, she suddenly imagined a Mary Sue scene where Lu Yuanqiu stepped aside, Bai Qingxia slumped into Lu Yuanqiu's arms, and both of her forearms were held in his hands.

But this scenario did not occur.

After class, Su Miaomiao walked into the classroom. Zheng Yifeng looked up at her, but Su Miaomiao just smiled at him and then wandered over to Lu Yuanqiu's side. She seemed to have something to say to Lu Yuanqiu, but didn't know where to start.

"What's wrong, teacher?" Lu Yuanqiu asked proactively.

Su Miaomiao placed her hand on Lu Yuanqiu's desk, tapped her fingers a few times, and suddenly drawled, "You... Oh right, how's your job as the student counselor going? How many people have talked to you? It's been almost two semesters, you should have quite a few people registered in your notebook by now."

"Just four."

Lu Yuanqiu took the notebook out of the desk drawer and handed it to Su Miaomiao. Su Miaomiao didn't seem to be there to look at the notebook. She just glanced at it casually and then looked at Zheng Yifeng behind her.

Zheng Yifeng gave her a questioning look.

Su Miaomiao avoided the other person's gaze and waved to Lu Yuanqiu: "...Lu Yuanqiu, come out with me for a bit."

Lu Yuanqiu got up and followed Su Miaomiao away.

Bai Qingxia and Zheng Yifeng, who were sitting in their seats, looked over in a daze.

Once outside the classroom, Su Miaomiao walked slowly ahead in the corridor, notebook in hand, with Lu Yuanqiu following behind. Lu Yuanqiu had expected to go to the office, but Su Miaomiao led him to a relatively quiet spot near the teaching building.

"What's going on, Teacher Su?"

Su Miaomiao turned around, sighed, and said wistfully, "Of course I'd go see you, the psychology committee member, for advice on my psychological problems." "Huh?"

"Zheng Yifeng and I are officially dating. You must have heard, right?"

I did hear Zheng Yifeng mention it, but I heard they haven't gone public yet. Perhaps it's because Teacher Su is still being reserved. Lu Yuanqiu didn't want to betray Zheng Yifeng, so he feigned surprise and asked, "You and Zheng Yifeng... are you sure?"

Su Miaomiao lowered her eyebrows: "Stop pretending. He's so close to you, he must have told you. It's nothing, you already knew, didn't you?"

Lu Yuanqiu cleared his throat and turned to look elsewhere.

Su Miaomiao continued, "The day after tomorrow is Sunday, and our class is having a team-building activity at a restaurant. It also happens to be Zheng Yifeng's birthday that day. I want to buy him a cake so that everyone can celebrate his birthday together, and I also want to give him a special gift."

"Are you going to publicly announce your relationship with Zheng Yifeng?" Lu Yuanqiu asked tentatively.

Su Miaomiao raised an eyebrow: "Oh, you're quite clever. Yes, I don't want to have a secret relationship with him anymore."

For the past month, they've even had to hold hands secretly while walking down the street, always feeling like they'd be caught by someone they know. Last time, the two of them ran into Bucktooth Qiang while holding hands on a side road, and Su Miaomiao froze on the spot, quickly hugging Zheng Yifeng and hiding in the bushes.

Her heart was pounding as she passed the bushes.

Unexpectedly, she encountered Director Ge cracking down on early romantic relationships in high school. She was just watching the show while eating sunflower seeds, but now she finally understands what it feels like to be caught.

Although the results of the two scenarios are not of the same nature...

Lu Yuanqiu: "...Then what did you want to see me about, teacher?"

Su Miaomiao lowered her head: "To be honest, I made this decision on a whim, and now I'm considering the consequences. You have a good relationship with Zheng Yifeng, so I'd like to hear your opinion, or rather, I'd like to hear your reasons for ultimately convincing me to make this decision."

Lu Yuanqiu sighed: "Teacher Su, you're overthinking it. There's really no need for so many reasons. You're no longer a high school English teacher, and he's no longer a high school student. You're both adults, have the approval of both sets of parents, and like each other. There's no obstacle at all."

"Does loving someone need a reason? If you have to give a reason, then the reason is that Zheng Yifeng has been waiting for this moment for a long time. This will be the most special birthday gift he has ever received."

Teacher Su stared at Lu Yuanqiu for a long time, nodding with her chest heaving: "Good, as expected of my handpicked psychology committee member."

After she finished speaking, she took out a pen from her pocket, scribbled a line on the notebook, then slapped the notebook against Lu Yuanqiu's chest, and left resolutely with the pen in her hand.

Lu Yuanqiu watched Su Miaomiao's retreating figure and let out a long sigh. He knew that Su Miaomiao was a person who was too conventional and always wanted everything to be done in a logical and orderly manner. She would feel insecure if anything she did deviated from the right path.

Fortunately, the other party was Zheng Yifeng, her destined other half. If it had been any other student, he would never have been able to win over this woman in this lifetime.

Zheng Yifeng once said that before this, he might have been slapped for even touching Su Miaomiao's hand, but now Lu Yuanqiu felt that Zheng Yifeng really understood her.

Lu Yuanqiu opened the notebook and saw that it was written in Su Miaomiao's handwriting:
5. June 1, 2012, Su Miaomiao: Loving someone doesn't need a reason.

　Two updates today... Let me think about the pacing of this volume's ending.
