A woman's heart is as unfathomable as the sea

Zhao Ya looked at Ye Qian with disdain, glancing up and down, and said, "Uncle, are you kidding? Do you really think we look like a couple? Don't you think it's like a fresh flower stuck in cow dung?"

Ye Qian chuckled and said, "Don't you think that flowers bloom more brightly when stuck in cow dung? They wither in a vase."

Zhao Ya shook her head helplessly and said, "I don't think so. Anyway, it's impossible between us."

Ye Qian shrugged indifferently and said, "That's not my concern. Your dad arranged the marriage. If you don't want it, you can talk to him."

"Do you think I won't dare? I'll call him right now," Zhao Ya said.

Ye Qian chuckled again without saying more. Although he wasn't sure about Zhao Tianhao's character, he knew that if he used this excuse to protect his daughter, Zhao Tianhao would agree. No parent wants their children to worry about their safety. If Zhao Ya knew someone wanted to kill him, she would definitely worry. Thus, Ye Qian was confident Zhao Tianhao would cooperate with him. Of course, he would give a hint beforehand to avoid catching him off guard.

The morning classes ended quickly. Ye Qian didn't learn much as he spent the whole time chatting with Zhao Ya. When the bell rang, the classmates yawned one by one, looking like they just woke up. They were tired after staring at Qin Yue for so long.

Ye Qian casually glanced around and was surprised to see an old acquaintance in the class. The other person also noticed him, gave him a quick glance, and walked out of the classroom. Although he hid it well, Ye Qian clearly felt the momentary killing intent in his eyes. Ye Qian's mouth curled into a wicked smile. Although the other person was quite powerful, his strength was insignificant in Ye Qian's eyes. He was just the son of the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee.

Qin Yue packed her lecture notes and walked out. She stopped at the classroom door, turned to Ye Qian, and said, "Ye Qian, come with me."

Ye Qian smiled slightly and turned to Zhao Ya, saying, "Wife, I'll be right back. Wait for me."

Seeing Ye Qian's smile, Zhao Ya was momentarily stunned, thinking, "This guy is actually quite handsome." But hearing Ye Qian's words, she immediately got angry and wanted to bite him. However, he had already slipped away, leaving her stomping her feet in frustration, muttering, "Scoundrel, you won't get away with this."

Ye Qian happily followed Qin Yue without speaking, just smiling at her. Qin Yue was used to being stared at by men. In every class, there were dozens of such eyes on her. But today, she felt uncomfortable, maybe nervous or conflicted. She turned her head angrily, but seeing Ye Qian's clear eyes without the usual possessive look of other men, she was momentarily lost. After a slight pause, she asked calmly, "What are you looking at?"

Ye Qian was taken aback by Qin Yue's sudden change and stared at her, forgetting to speak.

Qin Yue, feeling something was off, looked down at herself and touched her face, finding nothing. She thought Ye Qian was messing with her and frowned, her tone turning cold, "Did you hear me?"

Women are always changing. Although Ye Qian wasn't used to Qin Yue's quick mood changes, he quickly steadied himself and pretended to be confused, asking, "Huh? Did you say something? Sorry, I was distracted and didn't hear you. What did you say?"

Qin Yue was a bit at a loss with this little rascal. She couldn't beat him, and scolding didn't work. She shook her head helplessly and asked, "I asked why you were staring at me."

"Oh, I felt like I've seen you somewhere before," Ye Qian said.

"Seen me before? Weren't we just in the dean's office?" Qin Yue said.

"No, I mean before that!" Ye Qian scratched his head, looking like he was really thinking hard.

Qin Yue smiled helplessly and said, "Ye Qian, stop pretending. Your way of flirting is outdated. Also, I'm your teacher. Don't think you can talk nonsense just because I'm being nice. I'm telling you seriously, I don't want you to be the bad apple that spoils the bunch. I hope you can behave. Otherwise, as I said, if you mess up, I'll kick you out immediately."

Ye Qian chuckled and said, "No way, I'll listen attentively in your class and won't cause trouble."

Admitting mistakes and correcting them is a great virtue. Qin Yue felt a bit better about Ye Qian, not as annoying as when they first met. She nodded slightly and said, "Not just my class, but all classes."

"Yes, yes, all classes. I promise to be a good student and strive to stay on as a teacher," Ye Qian said nonsensically.

"You want to be a teacher?" Qin Yue asked, puzzled.

Ye Qian laughed and said, "Just kidding. With my behavior, I'd just mislead students."

Qin Yue shook her head helplessly and said no more. In the office, she opened the door and went in, telling Ye Qian, "Come in," and then sat at her desk. Ye Qian paused, surprised, thinking, "Do ordinary teachers get their own offices nowadays?"
