The Clingy Contract: My CEO Husband Won't Stop Spoiling Me-Chapter 429: Chen Zhinan! I, Shi Qingqing! I like you! Can I be your girlfriend?
The next day.
Tang Suiyu and three others sat in the second-to-last row.
Chen Zhinan was teaching a professional course, so the class had not yet ended, nor had it reached exam time.
Shi Qingqing lowered her head slightly, occasionally glancing at him. She didn’t know why, but she felt that Teacher Chen was different today.
But what was different, she couldn’t tell!
Was it just her imagination?
"Alright! That’s it for today’s class!" Chen Zhinan suddenly said.
"Teacher Chen, but there are still twenty minutes left until class ends. Are you sure you want to let us leave early?" Jing City University was very strict, and early dismissals were not allowed.
"Of course we won’t leave early. I have a few things I’d like to say to everyone," Chen Zhinan looked at them. "I’m leaving here. I applied for a master’s and doctoral program abroad and was accepted. It’s been wonderful spending these months with you all. Going forward, another teacher will take over this computer science course. I hope you give the new teacher a good impression and don’t embarrass me!"
Chen Zhinan is leaving?
Shi Qingqing stood up abruptly!
Chen Zhinan turned his gaze, and their eyes met.
Shi Qingqing slowly sat back down. She had been too excited just now and hadn’t thought of what to say.
Why leave?
Was it because of the election?
They had helped as much as they could.
Still not satisfied?
"I’ll treat everyone to lunch today, consider it a farewell meal! There are five minutes left, and since I won’t be a teacher at Jing City University anymore, I don’t need to follow the school rules! Let’s head over to the Crescent Building across the street, go! go! go!"
"Long live Teacher Chen!"
"Teacher Chen, we will miss you!"
The students in the classroom squeezed out towards the door.
Shi Qingqing and the others walked at the back.
"Teacher Chen! Does my cousin know you’re leaving?" Tang Suiyu asked him.
"Yes, I told her first thing," Chen Zhinan smiled gently, looking down at the dejected Shi Qingqing. "Don’t be sad, life is about continuous learning, broadening your horizons, and improving yourself."
"Then can you tell me which university you’ll be at?"
"Cambridge!"
"Got it!" Shi Qingqing forced a smile on her little face.
If she goes there too, could she keep up with him?
Shi Qingqing didn’t know.
Chen Zhinan had already booked the entire Crescent Building, so the dishes were served when they arrived.
They sat down and started eating.
Tang Suiyu and the others entered with Chen Zhinan, naturally sitting at the same table.
Shi Qingqing, who had never drunk alcohol before, drank for the first time that afternoon, and no one could stop her.
She even carried her wine glass over to Chen Zhinan. "Teacher Chen, I toast to you, wishing you a bright future and successful studies!"
"You’ve had too much," Chen Zhinan said, holding his glass, never having seen Shi Qingqing like this.
"Teacher Chen is leaving, and there might not be another gathering like this, so I have to drink more!" Shi Qingqing’s face was slightly flushed, her cheeks reddening. "Cheers!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
She downed the glass in one gulp.
"Teacher Chen! If I go to Cambridge too, will you look out for me?" Shi Qingqing picked up the wine bottle and poured herself a drink.
"Of course."
"That’s great!" Shi Qingqing filled her glass again. Because of her unsteady steps, a few drops spilled onto her fingers, like tears continually dripping from her heart.
Before they could even start, Teacher Chen was leaving.
"Teacher Chen, can I ask you a question?" Her eyes were misty, but looking at him only made her happier.
"Sure."
"Chen Zhinan! I, Shi Qingqing! like you! Can I be your girlfriend?"
