The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy-Chapter 1226 - 1226 Side Story 5: My Wife Has Been Very Busy Recently

1226 Side Story 5: My Wife Has Been Very Busy Recently

At the beginning of September, a new semester started at Xijing University. The campus was very lively with people coming and going.

Shen Li had also completed her undergraduate studies this summer and officially had become Shen Zhijin’s Ph.D. student.

Today was the first day for her to report in.

She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, low-waisted jeans, a baseball cap, and a black backpack slung over one shoulder.

The bright sun cast speckles of light on the shady road.

“Classmate? Classmate?”

A voice came from behind. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

Shen Li stood still and turned around. She saw a tall and handsome young man walking towards her with a suitcase.

“May I ask–”

Seeing Shen Li’s face, the young man was suddenly at a loss for words.

“What’s the matter?” Shen Li asked.

The teenager looked at her in a daze, and he suddenly blushed.

“No, no, it’s just that... May I ask where the registration office for the physics department is? ”

Shen Li said, “You’re at the wrong entrance. The physics department’s registration office is at the west gate square. Walk along this road to the end, turn left, and go straight.”

The boy quickly said, “Thank you! Thank you!”

“There’s no need to thank me.”

Shen Li continued to walk forward.

Seeing that she was about to leave, the boy panicked and subconsciously called out again, “Wait! Senior... sister?”

Shen Li turned around.

Seeing that she did not refute him, the boy’s guess was confirmed. She was indeed a senior!

Today was the day of registration for the new students, and the campus was full of new students dragging along their suitcases.

This girl was only carrying a backpack, and it did not look like there were many things in it. He had guessed that she was probably a senior from Xijing University.

He found that it was really true.

He took two quick steps forward, a bright and handsome smile on his face.

“Senior Sister, I’m Chu Heng! You’ve helped me so much, yet I don’t even know your name! Why don’t we add each other on WeChat and I’ll treat you to a meal later?”

He spoke frankly and generously, and his eyes were bright, but in fact, he was extremely nervous.

As he stood closer to Shen Li, he felt his face which had only just cooled down, begin to burn again.

Shen Li’s expression was indifferent as she replied.

“It’s not necessary.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Her response had been extremely straightforward and clear.

Chu Heng was so stunned that he was frozen to the spot.

In the past, it was always the girls who took the initiative to ask him for his contact information. This was the first time he had taken the initiative himself, but he had failed.

It took him a while to come back to his senses, but by that time, she had already disappeared.

He did not know which department... she was from.

He was a little upset. He had been so nervous when he met her just now that he had not managed to ask her anything.

After feeling dejected for a while, he walked toward the west gate square.

She was so beautiful that she had to be very famous at Xijing University.

Was she from the art department? Or broadcasting?

Or perhaps it was the foreign language department?

...

12th of September, Xijing University’s opening ceremony.

The sports field was already filled with students from various departments. It was bustling with noise and excitement.

Chu Heng lowered his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

A boy beside him poked him.

“Hey, hey! Brainiac, why are you in such a daze? You’re going to be the freshman representative today!”

Chu Heng raised his head.

“Yes.”

Another boy smiled and teased, “Don’t call him that. On the day he reported in, he fell in love with a senior, but he doesn’t even know her name or which department she was from. He’s been walking around Xijing a few times these days, but he hasn’t seen her again. That’s why he’s so absent-minded, right?”

As soon as he said that, it immediately aroused the interest of the boy who had asked the earlier question.

“Really? What kind of senior sister could make our new recruit miss her so much? Tell me!”

Chu Heng did not speak.

Another boy laughed and said, “Don’t ask anymore. He used to ignore the outside world, but now that his heart has been moved, he’s not willing to tell you even if you ask!”

“Alright,” he said.

After all, this was Chu Heng’s private matter, so the boy did not ask for more details. A thought came to his mind and clicked his tongue.

“I heard that Senior Sister Shen Li from our school is very pretty. It’s a pity that I haven’t met her yet.”

“Chu Heng.”

The counselor waved at him.

The opening ceremony was about to begin, and he had to go and make preparations.

Chu Heng gathered his thoughts and walked over.

As he walked up the stairs, he silently recited the speech he was going to give.

Suddenly, his eyes focused.

A young girl was standing not far away from them, talking to two teachers.

Chu Heng was stunned for a moment. Why was she here?

Apart from the school leaders and outstanding alumni, only the student representatives were allowed to be here.

She–

The counselor beside him noticed his gaze and explained with a smile, “That’s Shen Li. I’m sure you should know her, right? She’s this year’s Ph.D. representative. She’ll be the first one to speak, and since you’ll be the representative of the freshmen, you’ll be the third one, understand?”

Shen Li?

So she was Shen Li?

Of course, Chu Heng had heard of this name before. He had also read several of her papers and admired her greatly.

However, he was the kind of person who only focused on his studies and research. That was why it was only today that he found out what Shen Li looked like.

“She’s already finished her degree studies?” Chu Heng’s throat was dry.

“Yes.”

The counselor sighed.

“And now, she’s even studying under Dean Shen for her Ph.D.! After all, she’s already published four articles in Universe alone, and she’s also a researcher at the Capital branch of the Fino Laboratory, so naturally, she’s the most suitable to follow Dean Shen.”

Basically, no one else was qualified enough or suitable for her.

A voice came from the broadcast.

“Next, let’s welcome this year’s PhD representative, Shen Li, to speak.”

Shen Li walked up to the podium and everyone’s eyes were on her.

Chu Heng pursed his lips.

...

After giving his speech, Chu Heng stepped off the stage and looked around for that particular figure.

Very quickly, he saw her stand up and seemed to be preparing to leave.

His heart tightened. He was not able to care about anything else and immediately chased after her.

“Senior Sister Shen Li!”

Shen Li turned her head and looked over.

Chu Heng stopped a few steps in front of her and met her gaze. He became nervous again.

“Senior Shen Li, I haven’t thanked you properly for the last time.”

Shen Li’s expression was calm as she replied, “It’s nothing.”

Anyone could tell that this was still a rejection.

Chu Heng had never pursued anyone before, so he felt frustrated after being rejected twice.

But he still took a deep breath.

“I... I’ve read the two papers on the detection of gravitational waves by Senior Sister and I really admired it greatly. Actually, I’m also very interested in this subject. I don’t know if it’d be convenient for you to add me on WeChat, Senior. I have some questions to ask–”

Before Shen Li could speak, a cold and deep voice came from the side.

“It’s not convenient.” 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

That voice seemed to be quenched in ice and snow, exuding a faint chill.

Chu Heng felt an inexplicable chill and turned his head to look.

A young man with a tall, straight posture and a clear complexion walked over. He had one hand in his pocket and a lazy posture, but he also carried himself with a noble and lazy air.

This was...

The man seemed to have noticed his confusion, and his thin lips curled up slightly.

“My wife has been very busy recently. She probably... Doesn’t have much free time to do this kind of thing.”
