Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 135 - 101: College Entrance Exam Day, A Winning Start!
The two ordered a few stir-fries at the staff canteen.
While waiting for their food, they happened to see Chen Xiangyu coming in to eat. Seeing her old lover sitting with Lin Xiamo was no longer surprising to her.
However, a touch of jealousy inevitably arose in Teacher Chen’s heart.
Previously, Shen Qiushan had already told her about the familial relationship between the two.
Initially, Chen Xiangyu didn’t think much of it, believing that someone as outstanding as Lin Xiamo in all aspects wouldn’t possibly be interested in an old man like Shen Qiushan with two children.
But now the situation was different; Shen Qiushan, this old man, was becoming more and more radiant.
Whether it was an illusion or because the school environment was nourishing, Chen Xiangyu even felt that Shen Qiushan’s appearance and figure had improved significantly.
While delivering takeout, Shen Qiushan was a strong and good-looking man.
Plus, given their past connection, Chen Xiangyu completely regarded him as a card-playing friend.
After all, she was single, so it was comforting to have a strong man around!
A mutual benefit.
But after spending so much time together, inevitably, emotions could develop over time.
Especially as Shen Qiushan was becoming increasingly excellent.
This gave Chen Xiangyu a sense of crisis; previously, she didn’t think there would be any development between Shen Qiushan and Lin Xiamo.
But now, her views had changed.
Lin Xiamo was Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao’s second aunt!
Also called "Auntie"!
The title itself included the word "mom"!
It’s not an exaggeration to say she was like half a mom to the two kids!
So, if the two of them got together, from the kids’ perspective, there likely wouldn’t be any psychological burden.
There wouldn’t be the typical stepmother and children estrangement problem!
This was a natural advantage.
Moreover, in the past month, Shen Qiushan had been spending every noon in Lin Xiamo’s office.
When Principal Lin wasn’t at school, Shen Qiushan could even go to her house to eat and rest at noon.
But now, all his noon time was occupied by Lin Xiamo!
The number of times he went to her house for evening tutoring was also decreasing.
All signs indicated that Old Lover Shen Qiushan had found a new flame!
Chen Xiangyu walked over to the table where the two were sitting and sat down next to Shen Qiushan. "Principal Lin, are you planning to pack your meals and take them back to the office?"
"Yes."
Lin Xiamo nodded slightly. She was a sharp-minded woman with keen observation skills.
After you spending time together, she had long sensed that the relationship between Chen Xiangyu and Shen Qiushan was not ordinary.
However, she didn’t really have any evidence.
Besides, she wasn’t very interested in the relationship between the two.
Shen Qiushan had been her brother-in-law and a widower for so many years, and she didn’t believe he wouldn’t have one or two women outside.
As long as it didn’t affect the two kids, it was nothing; it’s his freedom.
However, recently, every time she saw Chen Xiangyu, she felt a sense that she couldn’t quite describe.
It seemed like annoyance.
Or perhaps resistance.
Anyway, she couldn’t bring herself to like her.
Especially now, as she was sitting boldly next to Shen Qiushan, although she said nothing, it felt like she was claiming her territory.
This made Lin Xiamo a bit uncomfortable, even giving rise to a bizarre sense of possessiveness.
This subtle psychological change even surprised Lin Xiamo herself, and she unconsciously furrowed her eyebrows.
A month of spending days and nights together let her reevaluate this "unreliable" brother-in-law, Shen Qiushan.
Originally, the two didn’t interact much, plus Lin Moxuan’s "talked-of-with-a-dismayed-attitude" influenced Lin Xiamo’s opinion of Shen Qiushan.
But after spending time together, she discovered that Shen Qiushan wasn’t as unreliable as her old man claimed.
He even had many good qualities, such as being sentimental, having a sense of responsibility, and being an exemplary father.
Shen Yanran and Shen Yixiao’s academic achievements soared, and Shen Qiushan as a father played a crucial role.
Moreover, his calmness in the face of public opinion demonstrated great leadership.
If someone else had faced such intense online criticism, their mental state would likely have collapsed.
But Shen Qiushan wasn’t affected at all, continuing his review according to his own pace, and eventually turned the tide with a stunning comeback!
Based on his performance over this period, Lin Xiamo’s impression of her "unreliable" brother-in-law transformed dramatically.
She even developed a bit of admiration for him!
"Old Shen, the college entrance exam is next month."
"I’m planning to wear a qipao to send exams; can you help me to choose which style looks better?"
At this moment, Chen Xiangyu handed her phone to Shen Qiushan while smiling cheerfully.
Shen Qiushan glanced down at the phone his old lover handed over. Although it was a shopping page full of various styles of qipao,
the qipao she showed him were all qq products, entirely inappropriate for sending exams!
They were battleground suits for tutoring!
Shen Qiushan’s mouth twitched slightly, and he sneaked a glance at Lin Xiamo, sitting opposite.
This woman’s expression was not looking good at the moment, even covered with a thin layer of frost.
No one knew who had offended her!
"This one!"
"It matches Teacher Chen’s temperament well."
Shen Qiushan pretended to be calm and pointed at a light purple qq qipao on the phone screen.
This qipao’s slit was nearly at the waist, making it very convenient to operate.
"Okay."
"Then this will be the one!"
