Chapter 54.3: Stars

Yan Xingzhi was very polite to Cen Ning’s roommate. “I came to pick her up, I didn’t expect that I would be so early.”

“It’s okay. Go to class together if you come early. It’s so romantic.”

Cen Ning glanced at her. “Stop talking nonsense. Class is starting.”

Chen Miao elbowed her and glanced at her. “It gives us face in the single dogs’ (TLN: single people) dormitory!”

Cen Ning: “…”

At first, Cen Ning didn’t know what Chen Miao meant. It wasn’t until Chen Miao secretly sent screenshots of the chat records between her and other students in the class that she realized that several people had come here to find out which department Yan Xingzhi belonged to. 

Cen Ning put down the phone and glanced at him calmly, while the latter flipped through her English book casually, as if he was really listening to the class seriously.

Hmm… It seemed that he shouldn’t be allowed to enter the school to wait for her.

Which paragraph???

“I…”

Yan Xingzhi pushed the book in front of her, reached out and pointed at a certain paragraph.

Cen Ning panicked and started to read the text, but she didn’t know if she was too nervous or something, but she couldn’t read out a single word.

“Either party to this agreement fails to perform their obligations under this agreement or if there are delays…” Yan Xingzhi’s low voice came from the side, and Cen Ning regained her senses and hurriedly followed his words.

 “If it is caused by events beyond the control of the party, then it does not constitute a breach of this agreement to the extent…”

After stumbling and stuttering, with her understanding and the assistance of Yan Xingzhi, Cen Ning finally completely translated this paragraph about business into English.

“Very good. The translation is very accurate.” The professor smiled and added, “The student beside is very good.”

The students in the class turned their heads in unison.

“…”

Cen Ning glanced at Yan Xingzhi, the latter was calm and composed, and raised his eyebrows innocently after seeing her eyes.

“Is he from our class?” the professor asked suddenly.

“Professor Yang! He is not from our class.” Chen Miao patted Cen Ning’s shoulder actively. “This is her boyfriend!”

Professor: “Oh? Having an aid in my class? Is my class so difficult?”

“Hahaha—” There was a burst of laughter.

A few bold students booed. “Professor, your class is really difficult.”

The professor pretended to be angry. “It’s difficult. If it’s difficult, just like that female classmate, you can bring aid. I won’t say anything.”

“But, professor, what if you don’t have a boyfriend?”

“No boyfriends, come to my office after class. I’ll tie the strings for you (TLN: find boyfriends for them), but let’s make it clear in advance. Don’t ask for too much.” The professor raised his eyes, smiled and looked at Yan Xingzhi, “I can arrange for you if they are good at English. But in terms of appearance, then the standard has to be lowered.”

There was another burst of laughter in the classroom.

After Cen Ning sat down with a blushing face, the man next to her said, “I thought I spoke very quietly, but I didn’t expect him to find out.”

“If I had known earlier, I would have said directly that I didn’t know how to do it.”

Yan Xingzhi glanced at her. “Don’t know how to do it? It’s because you were too distracted in class.”

Cen Ning said with a guilty conscience, “I usually don’t get distracted…”

“Really.”

“Really.” Cen Ning tugged at the hem of his clothes and blurted out, “The main thing is that I keep looking at you and I forgot to read the book.”

Yan Xingzhi paused, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised. “You know how to use this trick to beg for mercy.”

Cen Ning said seriously, “I’m serious!”

Yan Xingzhi was amused by her serious look. “Oh, my fault then.”

“I don’t dare…”

“Good.” Yan Xingzhi leaned back leisurely. “But if you want to look, I’ll show you so you have a good look when we get home. Right now, listen in class, be good.”

Cen Ning’er’s ears warmed up. Who wants to go home and take a good look…
