Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 331 Did she not finish her freshman year studies?

Chapter 331 Did she not finish her freshman year?
Qin Zhao nodded: "Yes, it's me who doesn't want to."

Lin Shi's hands, which were squeezing oranges, were bulging with veins, and he was already mentally ready to beat up Shen Yanci.

He sighed: "Why?"

Qin Zhao used the words he had been taught this time, replying succinctly: "I don't want to talk about it anymore."

"..."

"Brother, don't cause him trouble." Qin Zhao smiled, his expression relaxed. "It would make me lose face."

Lin Shi: "You really want to break up?"

Qin Zhao's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he hummed in agreement.

Lin Shi'an calmed down: "It's good that we broke up. I've disliked him for a long time."

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids, pursed his lips, and said casually, "Don't tell him about me. If he pesters me because of this, I'll be in a lot of trouble later."

Lin Shi's face showed even more dissatisfaction: "Is this why you got the score?"

"No." Qin Zhao smiled and said, word by word, "I'm afraid he'll overthink things."

—

Lin was photographed.

"Nine Heavens Tribulation" has just finished airing, and his momentum is at its peak.

When he went to find Lin Jianwei, he was followed by paparazzi in his car, which made it to the top of the trending searches.

Shen Yanci received the notification and clicked on it casually.

I paused for a moment when I saw the landmark building.

AQ Lab, a psychological laboratory under the Linshi Group, is not open to the public.

What was Lin Shi doing in that area?
Psychology, Qin Zhaoxue's major.

He closed his eyes, feeling as if he had overlooked something.

In September, Qin Zhao returned to school for classes.

He messaged Qin Zhao: "Let's have dinner together tonight."

Qin Zhao said "okay".

As school was about to end, he stood downstairs in the school building, waiting for Qin Zhao to finish class.

Shuang and Wang Xinyi happened to come out of the teaching building together and greeted him, "Princess Shen!"

Shen Yanci paused for two seconds before realizing that she was calling him.

"..."

Wang Xinyi tugged at her, signaling her to watch her words and actions.

Shuang also realized something was amiss, coughed lightly, chuckled twice, and changed the subject: "Waiting for Zhaozhao?"

Shen Yanci hummed in agreement: "Is she behind me?"

Wang Xinyi thought for a moment: "She should still be in class."

Cong Shuang nodded: "The professor of physiological psychology is an old professor with a very strong sense of responsibility for teaching and educating students. He often likes to extend class time."

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly: "Don't you need to fix it?"

“We finished it in our freshman year,” Shuang said carelessly. “When Zhaozhao was taking the retake, we even told her to avoid this teacher.”

However, during the first semester of our junior year, one of our courses conflicted with the schedule of this freshman course, so she couldn't make it up. She'll have to make it up this semester along with the current freshmen.

And so, it's fallen into Professor Liu's hands again.

Shuang sighed and shook her head.

Shen Yanci lowered his gaze slightly, concealing the thoughts in his eyes, and asked in a normal voice, "Didn't she finish her first year?"

"Didn't she take a leave of absence during her freshman year?"

Wang Xinyi tugged at Cong Shuang's sleeve. Cong Shuang looked at her and whispered, "What?"

Wang Xinyi gave her a wink, signaling her to stop talking. She glanced at Shen Yanci: "Zhaozhao should come out a little later than the end of get out of class. The cafeteria will be crowded after school, let's go grab a seat first."

Shen Yanci nodded, his eyelids closed, his expression unchanged.

Wang Xinyi pulled Cong Shuang away, and Cong Shuang asked in confusion, "Why are you pulling me?"

Wang Xinyi: "Was it inappropriate for us to talk about Zhaozhao taking a leave of absence from school?"

"Are you alright? This isn't a secret." Cong Shuang thought about Qin Zhao's family background and lowered her voice, "I didn't accidentally reveal some secrets of a wealthy family, did I?"

Wang Xinyi pondered for a moment, then glanced back and said, "It should be fine. He doesn't seem surprised. I was just worried that he might have a different opinion if he knew that Zhaozhao had taken a six-month leave of absence for studying abroad."

Some people in the college were gossiping about this. Their families are similar, so it's understandable. Shen Yanci, however, seemed unlikely to be that kind of person: "Probably not."

Wang Xinyi took her hand and said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Aunt Qin didn't tell us to keep it a secret."

"Let's hurry up, the cafeteria will get crowded soon."

……

In September, the weather was still a bit hot as evening approached.

I dropped out of college in my first year.
-
"Why didn't you contact me back then? Or did you have some other reason?"
"No."

"I liked it back then too."

Shen Yanci frowned slightly.

He went back to China during his freshman year Christmas.

I went to Yinghua as if by some strange twist of fate and spent the afternoon on the street where I often waited for her.

It had only been a few months, but looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar streets, he had the illusion that a very long time had passed.

The school bell rang, and he finally snapped out of his daze and tried to hide.

After taking two steps, he stopped again.

Why is he hiding?
He stood under that tree, thinking of many reasons why he had come, and imagining all sorts of seemingly insignificant ways to meet.

He had a cold expression, but his heart started racing when he heard the sounds of the crowd and footsteps.

What kind of expression would she have when she saw him?
Later, his brain even stopped functioning.

She didn't come.

I looked around several times, but still didn't see that familiar figure.

Failed time and time again.

He only then realized it.

Compared to hatred,
At this moment, his expectations and disappointments outweighed his feelings.

Most of the students from Yinghua had left, and the school gate gradually returned to quiet.

As he was about to leave, he ran into Jiang Man.

She greeted him in surprise, "Senior Shen, you're back in China? Are you on vacation?"

He nodded: "I'll be staying in China for a while for Christmas. I came to visit the teachers today. You just got out of school?"

Jiang Man hadn't expected him to talk so much. It seemed that staying abroad for a long time made him more talkative, she thought to herself, but didn't show it on her face: "I was trying to get tickets for the meet-and-greet, so I came out late. Everyone else left a long time ago."

Everyone else had already left.

Did she avoid him, or did he simply not see her?
Jiang Man waved to him, "Senior Shen, I'm leaving now."

Shen Yanci hummed in agreement: "Goodbye."

Will Jiang Man tell her that he has returned?

The streetlights were on, and the security guards standing at the school gate had returned to their duty rooms.

Shen Yanci followed a teacher she knew into the school.

Was she bullied again?
The thought flashed through his mind, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the stadium.

The campus was deserted, and the gymnasium doors were locked.

He looked up at the closed window and seemed to faintly hear her voice again.

"Shen, could you please find someone to open the door?"

She stood at the window, her slender body leaning out, and her eyes lit up when she saw him.

It's so high, you can just jump whenever you want.
