Chapter 5: Professor A cream batwing top that Su Jin wears.

During the end of term examination period, the library seemed to be flooded by the medical school students though it was both lively and still. There were four people sitting in an organized fas.h.i.+on in front of every table and arranged in front of each of them was a similar pile of blue covered books which formed a sort of radiant line of scenery.

Although it was packed with people, the atmosphere in the entire building was tranquil. Each figure immersing themselves in intense study was interwoven with this scorching summer atmosphere. Occasionally, there would be people having discussions in a low voice. The contents of which were about a solution to a question.

There was only one person who was the exception.

Soothing her forehead, Zhou Qian skewed a look towards the person sitting beside her. As she looked at the young woman dressed in a cream coloured batwing blouse and looking at a magazine with great interest, she asked in a lowered voice, "Xiao Jin, what's your progress in reviewing so far?"

Sitting in front of them, w.a.n.g Zhe lifted her gaze to look towards them.

Looking up from her magazine, Su Jin leaned her head against her right hand and spoke softly, "Hm… Still alright, I should be able to pa.s.s."

With Su Jin's personality, she was happy to just pa.s.s her tests.

"Then why did you follow us to the library?" Zhou Qian's lips twitched.

"I wanted to experience the end of term atmosphere." Putting her hand back down, Su Jin deadpanned.

With such a flippant answer, both Zhou Qian and w.a.n.g Zhe lightly made a sound 'tsk' before they returned back to their own books.

Ignored, Su Jin could only helplessly shrug her shoulders; she was merely speaking the truth.

As she raised her head to move her stiff neck, she absently looked at the crowd of people studying with their heads bent over at their desks. In her past life, she was extremely diligent about her studies. During the end of term period, she was doubly diligent, and the library had almost become like her second home then. As she reminisced, she felt overjoyed. Thankfully, Su Jin's major was the same as hers, otherwise she would not have known what to do now. Slightly shaking her head, she stood up from her chair.
During the end of term time, even the school beauty couldn’t beat the appeal of studying so Su Jin did not attract much attention as she stood up. After giving her two roommates a heads up, she picked up a pile of thick books and left the library.

Tuesday afternoon- it was currently the time for cla.s.ses to begin. Carrying her books as she walked through the thick and dense shade of trees of the school campus, rays of sunlight shone down through the gaps of the interwoven trees. As the light formed bright oval and teardrop-shaped spots on the ground, in contrast to the surrounding area that was surrounded by the shade of the trees, the scene became more beautiful and dazzling.

Without rhyme or reason, Su Jin suddenly thought of that smiling pair of peach blossom eyes.

Shaking her head vigorously to remove that person who had suddenly invaded her mind, she suddenly felt her shoulder start to hurt and the books in her hand fell instantly.

Did she b.u.mp into someone?

Su Jin was shocked and immediately raised her head.

"Junior?(1)”

(1)  (xiǎo xué mèi) 小学妹 – 'xiao' mean little or small; it can be used as a diminutive to address someone familiarly. 'Xue mei' means 'junior or younger female schoolmate.' There is no proper translation for this beyond 'junior' which express the strict age hierarchical society that certain Asian societies have. Having words such as senior or junior in this case shows social etiquette, respect, and politeness since the two people are mere acquaintances/colleagues.

Su Jin was slow to react but then, because of the person she b.u.mped into, her jaw dropped.

Because she was wearing flats, standing in front of her was a person who was about a head or so taller than her. Wearing a blue and white striped short-sleeved T-s.h.i.+rt, a pair of gla.s.ses with a black frame and gold temples, with thick dark eyebrows and a handsome and bright face that held a smile- all of these points created a scholarly aura.

"Senior Yanzhou?" Su Jin was still surprised. The person she b.u.mped into was Chuan Yanzhou. He was a year ahead of her, and also the ex-student council chairperson. During her first year, she had joined the student council. At that time, Chuan Yanzhou was still the section head of the student council's cultural recreation division. He taught her numerous things but then, in her second year, he renounced his role after the section head elections. However, he still moved upwards in the council but without any chance to meet in the cultural recreation division, the two lacked any further chances to keep in touch.

Only… Su Jin frowned her eyebrows slightly, "Senior Yanzhou, didn’t you already begin your interns.h.i.+p? Why are you still in school?"

"That’s because the graduation ceremony is coming up soon, so Zixin and the rest, they asked me to come back to give them some advice as the ex-student council chairperson." Chuan Yanzhou helplessly shrugged his shoulders, "what were you thinking about just then? You weren't looking where you were going." After saying this, he bent down and picked up the books on the ground.

Stretching her hands out to take the books, she stuck out her tongue in embarra.s.sment and spoke lowly, "I was a little distracted, Senior, sorry."

"It’s alright." Chuan Yanzhou quirked up a smile, patting the young woman’s head quite naturally and teased, "be careful when you’re walking next time because if you’re this careless, what can we do if you b.u.mped into the tree next?"

"How would I?" Shaking her head vigorously, she spoke softly, "I’ll be going first, Senior. My roommates are waiting for me to have a meal together." After saying that, she did not wait for him to respond and left, brus.h.i.+ng past him as she carried her books.

Turning to look at the small figure that swiftly walked further away, Chuan Yanzhou's gaze deepened. Although her family background was wealthy and her appearance seemed n.o.ble and proud, when one got to know her, they would find that she was an extremely pure young woman. Even though she was raised as a spoiled person, it was not difficult to get along with her.

Sensing a gaze at her back, Su Jin shook her head and her footsteps quickened rapidly.

As the original host had been gotten rid of earlier on, the novel did not have much content about her. Fortunately, she retained the memories of the original host, otherwise, she wouldn’t know when she would have been discovered. As for Chuang Yanzhou, in the novel, other than Han Xuelan, he was the only other person that was connected to Su Jin.

Chuan Yanzhou liked Su Jin.

However, the original host had wholeheartedly placed her focus on the male lead, Lu Xi, and had no eyes for him.

Lu Xi…

Why was it this person yet again? Frowning her eyebrows, Su Jin quickened her pace towards the residency area.

"Professor Lu, what’s wrong?" On the fourth floor of the administrative building, a slightly older man in the office of the Department Head of Educational Administration asked him strangely.

"Nothing." The slightly younger man seemed to recover himself and chuckled, "please continue, Department Head Lü."

The man named Department Head Lü glanced at the half-open window before he returned his gaze and continued to discuss the situation at the university.

After eating dinner, Su Jin and w.a.n.g Zhe walked to cla.s.s.

This was their last elective cla.s.s for the term. Zhou Qian had finished the credits needed for her electives earlier last term, so this term, it was only Su Jin and w.a.n.g Zhe who chose this module.

"This is our final cla.s.s right?" Leaning against the table in the middle of the second row, Su Jin wrote a few words on her phone as she asked out of the blue.

"Yep." Sitting beside her, w.a.n.g Zhe nodded and pushed up her gla.s.ses as she spoke, "next time, it should be the exams."

"Exams?" Sitting upright, Su Jin looked at w.a.n.g Zhe, "an open book one?"

Noncommittally, w.a.n.g Zhe nodded her head and Su Jin calmed down. Leaning her head down on the table, the batwing s.h.i.+rt curled up slightly revealing a little of her pale and tender waistline.

Stepping into the cla.s.sroom as the bell rang, the man absorbed this scene as his eyes darkened. Walking towards the platform, he gently rapped the table.

Directly colliding with the metal desk, the crisp sound startled everyone who was seated in different positions and att.i.tudes.

As they all sat upright and raised their heads, each person blankly stared. In the medium-sized cla.s.sroom, a wave of gasps happened again and again and each exhaling the phrase, "so handsome."

As she very slowly sat up, Su Jin suddenly felt an unpleasant premonition.

She raised her head abruptly.

The man standing by the lectern was dressed in a pure white s.h.i.+rt with sleeves that were tidily folded to his elbows. At the neck, the top two black crystal b.u.t.tons were left unb.u.t.toned, faintly showing half of a red string and a hint of a colour of jade with glossy l.u.s.tre.

She looked upwards once more.

A pair of twinkling peach blossom eyes gazed at her.

Su Jin stared blankly as she opened her mouth a little.

Looking at the girl who straightens up her body to look at him with a blank expression on her face, the man's lips curled in satisfaction. He too, stood upright and began to speak, "h.e.l.lo everyone, I am Lu…"

"Director Lu Xi!" Without finis.h.i.+ng a sentence, he was already interrupted.

Flabbergasted, Lu Xi looked towards the direction of the voice. Although he was well-respected the career of a director was after all, different from an actor. Also, he had always been low-profile and even though he had a rather high status in the entertainment circle, usually he was not be exposed too often. Moreover, over the past few years, he had been mostly overseas with his teacher and so did not expect to be recognised by someone that was not in the School of Fine Arts.

The person who had spoken was a girl wearing huge black-framed gla.s.ses. When she noticed her cla.s.smates' attention on Lu Xi turn to her, her face rapidly turned red.

Lu Xi gave her a light smile as he nodded his head.

As she recovered from her surprise, Su Jin looked upon this scene and secretly, let out a sound of hmph. Looking at the n.o.ble and aloof indifference in the depth of his eyes, she inwardly spurned his contradictory appearance(2).

(2) (biǎo lǐ bù yī) 表里不一 – This is an idiom that describes literally that the outer appearance differs from the personality on the inside, therefore, all is not what it seems to be. She is implying that she dislikes the fact that while he is being friendly and nice to the student, the truth is, Lu Xi could hardly be bothered about her.

"I am Lu Xi." He continued to speak as his gaze s.h.i.+fted to the cla.s.s, "my occupation is a director and concurrently, I am also now a guest professor at Shenhai University. Your professor, Professor Zhou, currently has some matters to settle, therefore, I am subst.i.tuting for him for today's lesson about the history of European films."

"Furthermore," his gaze scanned across the cla.s.s and then, returned to look at the girl that was directly sitting before him. "In the next term, I will offer a course on movie appreciation. It will have about approximately forty spots, therefore if you are interested, you can opt to pick it up."

Opening up a course?

A spread of surprised murmurs echoed in the cla.s.sroom. Su Jin could even hear some excited squeals of some girls nearby.

"Like bees to honey…(3)"

(3) (zhāo fēng yǐn dié) 招蜂引蝶 – This is an idiom initially about describing a flower attracting bees and b.u.t.terflies. It figuratively implies attracting the opposite s.e.x or to flirt. There is no equivalent idiom in English to fit the situation other than bees to honey. Here, Su Jin is implying he's attracting attention to himself on purpose.

"What did you say?" Hearing her low mutter, w.a.n.g Zhe turning her head towards Su Jin and asked.

"Nothing." Su Jin shook her head with a note of levity.

"Next term, let's register for it!" Distracted, w.a.n.g Zhe no longer took note of what she might have said and simply shook her friend's arm in excitement as she spoke.

"Register?" With a strange expression on her face, Su Jin raised a brow, "don't you  already have a boyfriend, why are you still so excited?"

"Since we have to go to cla.s.ses, facing a handsome teacher with a nice voice is better than facing an old man." w.a.n.g Zhe nudged her arm, "are you going?"

"No way, I'm not going." Her mouth twitching in frustration, Su Jin looked towards that pair of alluring peach blossom eyes and steely clenched her teeth.
