Yang Ming hung up Chen Mengyan’s phone call and called Xiao Qing to let her know he was safe.
“Sister Xiao Qing, where are you?” asked Yang Ming.
“I’m at the university. Where else can I be?” Xiao Qing heard Yang Ming’s voice and could not conceal her surprise, “Are you back?”
“En, I am back, but I have a lunch appointment with Chen Mengyan at noon. I will see you in the afternoon,” said Yang Ming apologetically.
“Don’t just visit me all the time. Yesterday, Godfather asked me why he hasn’t seen you in such a long time? Could it be that you don’t want him as godfather since you are rich now?” Xiao Qing said somewhat jokingly. She definitely knew Yang Ming was not that kind of person.
“Ah?” Yang Ming was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he hadn’t been to his godfather Liu Weishan’s house for a while. He had been really busy since the end of the year. He rarely even went back to his own house, and he overlooked his godfather and godmother’s feelings as well.
Yang Ming felt a little guilty thinking of this. I should at least see them no matter how busy I am! I have to go and visit godfather even if I need to make arrangements for it.”read comics on our ReadReadReadReadNovelFull.live”
“Sister Xiao Qing, I was so busy a while ago…” said Yang Ming, embarrassed.
“Hehe, of course, I know you are busy. In fact, godfather also knows it. He has already heard that you haven’t been to our campus for such a long time. He just nagged casually. He didn’t blame you,” explained Xiao Qing. “We all understand.”
“Okay, let me call godfather to see if he has time at noon, and then Mengyan and I will invite him to have a meal together,” Yang Ming thought about it and said.
“That will be fine. I will not participate. You all go ahead.” Xiao Qing naturally would not go after hearing that Chen Mengyan would go too.
“Okay…” Yang Ming did not force her as well. After all, if Xiao Qing went, she would definitely feel awkward even if she didn’t say anything.
Liu Weishan was the deputy principal in charge of teaching at the university now, and his workload was much heavier than before. When Yang Ming called him, he was studying the semester’s faculty staff assessment. Nonetheless, he happily put down his work to answer the phone after seeing Yang Ming’s number.
“Yang Ming? Are you back, kid?” Liu Weishan asked with a smile. It seemed that he had already heard from Xiao Qing that Yang Ming went abroad.
“En, I just came back.” said Yang Ming, “Godfather, it’s been so long since I went to your house… I…”
“Hah, it’s okay. Did this child, Xiao Qing, tell you something?” Liu Weishan smiled and said, “I also know that you are busy. It’s okay. You don’t need to overthink it.”
“Godfather, I actually called to ask you if you are free at noon? Mengyan and I will treat you to lunch…” asked Yang Ming with some embarrassment.
“I have a lunch appointment at noon. But it’s okay. I’ll cancel it. Tell me where it is and I’ll go!” Liu Weishan was overjoyed when he heard that Yang Ming wanted to treat him to lunch!
In fact, Liu Weishan had already reached such an age where he no longer put much value on status and power. He didn’t care about these things especially since he had a high reputation in engraving academia across the country. Enjoying time with family and friends was his main priority. So, he canceled the lunch appointment without the slightest hesitation to eat with Yang Ming.
“Alright, then I will make a reservation and call you again,” said Yang Ming. It seemed that he needed to change this original plan. Yang Ming originally planned to find a small restaurant near campus to eat something with Chen Mengyan and the others, but since Liu Weishan would be there, he needed to book a higher-end place. After all, it was considered a family feast since they were with their elders. It would be inappropriate to go to a low-grade restaurant.
Yang Ming called Guo Jianchao and asked him to book a private room at the new Song Jiang International Hotel, which was the former Douglas Vast Hotel. Yang Ming told him that he would have lunch there later.
Guo Jianchao naturally handled this matter quickly.
……
After Chen Mengyan hung up the phone, she didn’t have the mood to listen to the class anymore. She began to text Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia to tell them that Yang Ming had returned and invited them to eat together at noon.
“Chen Mengyan, can you explain what is the main cause of inflation in this case?” The professor singled out Chen Mengyan.
“Ah? I…” Chen Mengyan was answering her phone and sending text messages just now. How could she have heard the case the professor was discussing?
“Sit down and listen to the class carefully next time. As a class committee member, don’t set a bad example by slacking off,” The professor said without mercy.
“Oh… Okay…” Chen Mengyan sat down while blushing.
The professor had been increasingly finding fault with her recently, and Chen Mengyan also knew why. A while ago, the professor looked for her and asked her some personal questions such as whether she had a boyfriend and other similar questions.
Chen Mengyan asked in detail only to realize that the professor wanted to introduce his grandson to her as a boyfriend! Of course Chen Mengyan refused, but the professor seemed to feel humiliated and held a grudge against her!
In his view, Chen Mengyan’s so-called boyfriend was simply an excuse. How could a young girl in her first year have a boyfriend so soon? He certainly had not paid attention nor heard of the rumors in the university either.
Therefore, Professor Wang assumed that Chen Mengyan was humiliating him. He couldn’t stand his grandson’s coaxing and pestering at home, so he felt even more displeased. Therefore, he often made things difficult for Chen Mengyan on purpose in order to let her know that it would be extremely hard for her at university if she didn’t agree to his request.
Actually, Professor Wang was still a fairly righteous person previously. He had never received a student’s bribe for their thesis and exams. He was considered a man of integrity! But such a person was even more stubborn. He thought that since he had worked so hard for the university for a lifetime, it shouldn’t be excessive to get some benefits for his grandchild when he was old.
Moreover, this matter was not a violation of principle. It was just introducing a boyfriend. His grandson was so outstanding. He was more than enough to match Chen Mengyan. But he did not expect Chen Mengyan to actually not agree to it!
Besides feeling humiliated, Professor Wang also felt that Chen Mengyan was not sensible! He was a university professor from a scholarly family, and his son was a company’s big boss. Although his grandson’s results were not ideal, his grandson went to a university under his influence. Although it was not Song Jiang Industry University, it was still a joint school of the university.
However, these were not important. His grandson was just muddling along in university and would work at his son’s company after graduation. His grandson would take over the family business in the future. With such a strong family background, Chen Mengyan still didn’t agree to his request. No one would believe it if this matter was spread out!
If not for his grandson being attracted to Chen Mengyan after coming to the university to listen to his class, Professor Wang would be too lazy to be a matchmaker. There were so many people who wanted to get married to his grandson. Why would he be bothered about Chen Mengyan?
Therefore, Professor Wang would often find faults with Chen Mengyan during these few classes. He was intending to pressure her!
