"Sister Wei Rui is a very nice person. She's probably just in a bad mood!" Fang Kexin chimed in.
"You two ride in my sister's car, I'll ride in Wei Rui's. Wei Rui, you won't be unhappy with your aunt, will you?" Su Qingchi felt a little uncomfortable seeing Li Yang and Fang Kexin, and decided to avoid them altogether!
"Yes!" Sun Weirui was so angry with Li Yang that she almost burst into tears. She opened the car door, got in, and slammed the door shut.
Both Su Qingchi and her sister, who are both highly intelligent and emotionally intelligent, noticed the problem. Su Qingchi sighed helplessly, while Su Miaomiao was in a precarious situation herself and had no way to comfort her niece. She silently got into Sun Weirui's car, crossed her arms, and leaned back without saying a word.
Boom! Sun Weirui drove the car so fast it seemed to fly, and was the first to rush out.
Su Qingchi drives very steadily, starting slowly, with almost no bumps or jolts. The car accelerates at a steady pace, and the speed is still not very fast. In the city, Su Qingchi always drives very slowly and steadily.
Fang Kexin was a little reserved in front of Su Qingchi, and reverted to her shy and timid nature as a homebody. Although she was still leaning on Li Yang, her movements were much more proper.
Fang Tongshou and Su Qingchi are allies from the same family. Fang Kexin has been afraid of this woman who is even more powerful than her father since she was a child. Over time, this has left her with a psychological shadow that she still cannot let go of.
“Weirui’s temper has always been like this; we’ve spoiled her too much. But she’s not a bad person at heart; she’s still a good child. The recent rumors have made her irritable, but we can’t entirely blame her, can we? Any girl who has never been in a relationship would be at a loss if she encountered something like this for the first time. You have to understand her!” Su Qingchi drove slowly, patiently persuading him. Although Li Yang knew that what Su Qingchi said was true and that she was speaking earnestly, he was still unhappy.
Sometimes there's a reason why one person is unhappy with another, and sometimes there's no reason at all.
It seems that their first meeting was unpleasant, leaving a bad first impression, which caused Li Yang to lose interest in her and his patience.
"I'll be careful," Li Yang could only say.
That was all Su Qingchi could do; he stopped there and didn't try to persuade her further.
"Did someone give you some pointers about that rumor?" Su Qingchi suddenly asked, surprising everyone.
"What do you mean by that, Principal Su?" Li Yang feigned ignorance.
“Actually, I also hope for reconciliation. We are all from universities in China, and our purpose is to educate and nurture students, not to gain these empty titles. The peach and plum trees do not speak, yet a path is formed beneath them. Even without this person to guide you, I would still negotiate with you. However, this process may take a while!” Su Qingchi opened up and spoke her true feelings.
Li Yang nodded slightly, somewhat admiring her; she truly was a master of both virtue and talent.
“Actually, in my heart, I didn’t think Bei Mu was anything special at first. But after seeing your character and level of thinking, and Ke Xin’s father’s good intentions, I now believe that Bei Mu’s achievements today are not just empty talk, but truly based on real talent!” Li Yang said sincerely.
Su Qingchi was very pleased and smiled, saying, "With your words, it's all worth it! Tongshou has worked diligently his whole life, all for the school and for the cause of education. He is a respectable friend and a teacher deeply loved by his students. As for Weirui and Kexin's little grievances, they only highlight his greatness. He can dedicate his own daughter to this cause, so I, Su Qingchi, have no reason not to do the same!"
"Hehe... I truly admire you now. Principal Su, are you planning to make the rumors come true?" Li Yang's gaze became somewhat frivolous.

"No! At most, I'll ignore it. Young people should handle their own affairs. I'm too busy to deal with that. It's all up to your own fate!" Su Qingchi said magnanimously.
"Hahaha... Principal Su is indeed extraordinary! Holding the position of principal for decades is no easy feat! I truly admire you!" Li Yang said sincerely.
"Hahaha... To hear such words from a proud and unrestrained fellow like you, I truly have something to be proud of!" Su Qingchi was in high spirits and laughed heartily.
Fang Kexin was completely confused, unable to understand the riddles the two were playing, but she did understand one thing: her father and Aunt Su didn't care about her, Wei Rui, and Li Yang's affairs. Suddenly, Fang Kexin felt a surge of goodwill towards this aloof aunt, finding her so kind and approachable.
Li Yang returned to the hotel alone and asked Su Qingchi to take Fang Kexin home. A well-behaved girl like her shouldn't stay out overnight, and Li Yang didn't want her to be unable to explain herself to her family.
It was past midnight when we got back to the hotel.
After all that commotion for most of the night, if Li Yang hadn't been highly skilled in martial arts and had plenty of stamina, he would have been exhausted long ago.
Li Yang opened the door and went inside. He started to take off his clothes to take a shower. Although it was late, he had been busy all night. Although his martial arts had reached a high level and his blood and qi had been gradually purified by the internal energy, giving off a natural fragrance, there was still a slight dustiness.
You could say that taking a shower has become a habit, at least it washes away the oil and dirt from his hair, and more importantly, taking a shower before bed helps improve sleep quality.
After rinsing myself naked in warm water, I relaxed my body and gently massaged my scalp. It felt incredibly comfortable and enjoyable.
"Knock knock knock..." The knocking was very soft and rhythmic, three knocks in a row, two short and one long, a typical visiting knock, very polite.
Li Yang wrapped himself in a bath towel. Such a polite knock on the door in the middle of the night—it couldn't be Cao Xin or Gao Qingmei. Who could it be?
Li Yang was stunned when he opened the door.
Choi Hyun-ah stood quietly at the doorway, graceful and elegant, like a blue lotus on a snow-capped mountain, radiant and captivating. Her bright eyes and cool appearance were perfectly matched, like a fairy from the moon palace.
"Miss Cui? Is there something you need?" Li Yang did not invite her in. It would be too ambiguous for a man and a woman alone in a room late at night.
"Is this how you treat your guests? Aren't you going to invite me in?"
Contrary to her usual aloof demeanor, Choi Hyun-ah spoke with a touch of playfulness.
"It's so late at night, isn't that inappropriate?" Li Yang refused.
The matter of Sun Weirui and Fang Kexin has not yet been resolved, and Cao Xin and Gao Qingmei are right next door. If this situation were to arise again, he would be unable to handle it.
"I'm a girl and I'm not afraid, what are you, a grown man, afraid of? Hypocritical!" Cui Xuanya said disdainfully, pushing Li Yang aside and walking inside.
Li Yang's chest muscles trembled slightly; he had actually been taken advantage of, his chest had been groped by a beautiful woman.
Helpless, he had no choice but to close the door and turn back to his room.
As he sat down on the sofa, he noticed two wine glasses on the table. Choi Hyun-ah had brought some red wine from somewhere and filled them to the brim.
"Come on! Cheers!" Cui Xuanya raised her glass, handed one to Li Yang, and said.
"Why?" Li Yang had guessed some of the reasons, but he wasn't quite sure.
The saying "A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea" is not just a saying.
"You've helped me so much, especially my family, so of course I have to thank you properly!" Choi Hyun-ah said earnestly, a strange light flickering in her eyes.
"Alright. Cheers!" Li Yang raised his glass, clinked it against hers, and was about to drink it all in one gulp.
"Wait a minute, don't I still owe you a toast?" Cui Xuanya had lived in China for several years, and was exceptionally intelligent and pure-hearted. She had a natural talent for learning Chinese, and her speech was almost perfectly natural. She also had a deep understanding of traditional culture.
