Chapter 60: She Actually Dared To Stand Him Up 1

“That’s not true,” Yang Yuxi looked up and denied. “Not true? After meeting that handsome guy yesterday, you did not even return to the office until this morning. I don’t believe that there is nothing fishy. Nevertheless, that handsome guy is really not bad. He’s tall, suave and cooler than movie stars. Also, he has an extraordinary charisma and is also very particular in his style. Perhaps he’s the perfect and eligible bachelor? Aren’t you giving it any thought?” Zheng Rui teased. “Sister Zheng, I already have a boyfriend,” Yang Yuxi said. “Yes, yes… You have a boyfriend. But your boyfriend doesn’t even call you once every two weeks,” Zheng Rui rolled her eyes and said.

“He had just landed a new job in a new department. He’s busy,” Yang Yuxi explained. “You can find excuses for him. Don’t blame me for not reminding you. If your boyfriend doesn’t contact you for a long time, there must be a problem. Be careful of him double-crossing you,” Zheng Rui reminded. “Hao Xuan is not that kind of person,” Yang Yuxi shook her head and said. “There are no cats that don’t steal a fish. Similarly, there is no man who doesn’t have a roving eye. There are only two kinds of men who won’t be unfaithful. One, he doesn’t have the qualities. Second, there are not enough external factors tempting him. You better pay more attention,” Zheng Rui advised. “Okay, got it,” Yang Yuxi said unhappily.

“Xiao Yang, are you really not considering the handsome guy yesterday? I think the two of you look quite compatible. He is your student’s uncle and it’s a good chance to interact more with him.” After a while, Zheng Rui steered back to the same topic again. Yang Yuxi slumped on the table listlessly, responding to Zheng Rui by making conversations with her perfunctorily. She noted down the issues that she noticed in the assignments marked earlier and revised the lesson content for today. At the sight that it was almost time, she tidied up the teaching materials and told Zheng Rui that she was leaving for the lesson. She then fled the office.

“Hao Xuan did not call me for many days again. Is there really something going on?” Outside the office, Yang Yuxi thought about Zheng Rui’s words and could not help pondering deeply. However, she dispelled such suspicions very quickly. Lovers should have mutual trust. She had been together with Hao Xuan since they were in college.Read more new novels on listnovel.com

Arriving at the classroom, Yang Yuxi asked the subject representative to distribute the assignments. Her eyes landed on Chen Yu’s seat. He was still absent. Furrowing her brows slightly, she asked his deskmate but could not find out much. Hence, she made up her mind to contemplate the matter after class.

After class, Yang Yuxi called Chen Yu. The call was picked up by someone who sounded like an elderly woman. “Hello, I am Chen Yu’s teacher. My surname is Yang. Are you Chen Yu’s family member?” Yang Yuxi said. “I am Chen Yu’s grandmother,” The voice on the other side of the phone said.Read more new novels on listnovel.com

“Hello, Grandma Chen. Is Chen Yu around?” Yang Yuxi asked. “He is unwell and sleeping now,” Grandmother Chen said. “Ah, he is unwell. Since when?” Yang Yuxi asked anxiously. “Since yesterday night. After he came back, he ran into a high fever the next morning,” Grandmother Chen said worriedly.

Yang Yuxi’s heart sank. The day before was the day that she went to look for Chen Yu. It seemed that Chen Yu’s illness had something to do with the bottle of hard liquor that he downed. At the thought of this, her heart was filled with guilt. “Grandma Chen, can you tell me your address? I’ll go and visit Chen Yu.”

Grandmother Chen told her the address and Yang Yuxi rushed over. Initially, she had planned to call Ye Ming and inform him but she was afraid that he would not agree to it. Hence, she simply did not notify him and took action before reporting.
