The little girl had sore legs and waist, staggering to get her mobile phone, and it was already running out of power.
Standing in front of the mirror, Chen Shuguan touched the tooth marks on his chin that were not completely erased, and the newly added scratches on the side of the marks. It was difficult to see any strange emotions on his face. He turned around and calmly walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing Meng Chu wrapped herself into thick clothes, dragging her suitcase, the door was opened with a gap, the little girl sneaked her head out. When she was sure that there was no one outside the corridor, she opened the door with a peace of mind.
However, the girl stayed there.
Professor Shi Liang from the Department of Physics lives next door to Chen Shuguan. He is more than 50 years old, and only occasionally comes to take a break at noon during his classes.
The two of them were stunned. Shi Liang was actually okay. He was mainly shocked by the shocked expression of the girl on the opposite side. There was no response for a while, and both sides stood in shock.
Fortunately, Chen Shuguan came out to break the deadlock. Seeing him come out, Professor Shi slightly nodded towards Chen Shuguan in confusion.
Without looking back, Meng Chu ran to the corner of the stairs.
Although Shi Liang is the same as Chen Shuguan, they rarely have contact with each other, but he has heard all kinds of rumors about this young professor who won an award at a young age.
It is said that he is reserved and introverted. He is only in his thirties and is obsessed with experiments. There are many female students and teachers who are like him, but he has never regarded them as special, and he is quite far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
"Professor Chen's girlfriend?" Shi Liang glanced at the handsome, sharp-faced young man in front of him.
He looked in the direction the girl was running away at this time, the lines were obviously softer, and the bluish-purple traces that remained on his face, people with a discerning eye would know what was going on.
"She is young and thin-skinned." Chen Shuguan looked like he had a headache and sighed lightly.
This is directly admitting it.
Shi Liang saw him falling into the mortal world, as if annoyed by these emotions. The rumors he knew were really unbelievable.
For Meng Chu, today can be regarded as a fleeting disadvantage.
The two classes that Meng Chu skipped in the morning were the last math class of this semester. The attendance rate reached 99%, and Meng Chu was the only lucky person who was able to not get blacklisted by the teacher due to her absence.
Only when Meng Chuxian got 86 points in the test, could she barely pass the passing rate, prepare for the next year, and completely focus on her studies.
After Meng Chu left, Chen Shuguan did not go directly to the cafeteria but dialed his phone.
"Uncle He, help me find someone..." He reported a series of numbers.
The man put his hands on the floor-to-ceiling window, not knowing what he saw, his eyes focused on a certain place and he hadn't looked away for a long time.
Wednesday is Christmas Eve. The surrounding businesses hung up Christmas decorations. The major clubs on campus have updated their posters, and there is a festive atmosphere everywhere.
The young people, just after lunch time, and the entire dormitory began to become desolate, even her roommate said to her before leaving: "Do not wait for me tonight."
She understood what she meant.
Dong Chengjun, the boyfriend and Zhao Qian's childhood sweetheart in high school went to school in another city and came to spend Christmas with her.
Meng Chu remembered that handsome and reticent boy who treated Zhao Qian very well. Zhao Qian married him as soon as she graduated. Zhao Qian became Meng Chu's agent two years later.
The two of them have always been close.
Meng Chu didn't have much expectation for this kind of day. After sending text messages to Meng Yuan and Zhou Qing, she directly locked her phone, unconsciously fearing that person.
Chen Shuguan really didn't intend to harass her. Although he stayed abroad for a while, he never cared about these festivals. Only Zheng Ying grew up abroad and got used to it.
Chen Shuguan drove back to the compound.
Although it is in the center of the city, there are two shops facing the street around it, but the license plates for entering and exiting are registered, and the guards standing by the gate wore a military uniform.
The guard who stopped Chen Shuguan had just been transferred and asked him a few routine questions. A person hurriedly ran into the general control room next to him and interrupted him. He spoke highly of Chen Shuguan in a straightforward manner. He saluted him, "Mr. Chen, you are back."
Chen Shuguan nodded.
He changed his face in a blink of an eye and said, "You dare to stop the prince!"
The guard who was new instantly understood.
In this compound, who can be called the prince, besides Chen's family, who else can it be.
The Chen family villa is in the middle of the compound. Chen Jue is not at home. Zheng Ying is squatting in the living room decorated with a Christmas tree, surrounded by ribbons, bells, and the like.
Seeing him come back, she got up from the ground in excitement and almost tripped over, "You're back."
The old man of the Zheng family insisted on taking him under his ill and the family did not dare to oppose him.
Chen Shuguan faintly called: "Mom."
Zheng Ying retreated her hand. Although she was unwilling to accept it for so many years, she had to admit that she and Chen Jue's son indeed has a very cold temperament.
"How about the girl whom you asked Uncle He to help buy clothes that day? Why didn't you bring her back?" Zheng Ying was obviously more interested in this, and she couldn't hide the light in her eyes when she talked about it.
Chen Shuguan was taken aback, then frowned, without speaking.
Four p.m.
Chen Jue didn't answer, but the call came first.
"Go and check if the person on Weibo is you." Only one sentence was said, direct and concise.
Chen Shuguan opened Weibo, but he didn't actually need to read it carefully. Among the newly registered accounts, Meng Chu was the only one that he was following.
His face was blank and he replied, "You don't have to worry about it, I will take care of it."
