Chapter 544 - Mrs. Lu’s Small Thoughts

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

‘As soon as the three male students heard that, they suddenly thought of the fact that Zi Yi’s Mother had passed away when she was young. However, she was calling the lady in front of her Mom. So what did that mean?

Could it be that the lady was Junior Zi’s future mother-in-law?

The three of them came to a sudden realization at the same time.

“Hahaha… Auntie, there’s no need for that. The three of us have big stomachs and the soup you brought for Zi Yi isn’t enough for all of us to share. You should eat first. We’ll go and order some food.”

After Ge Tao said that, the three of them immediately headed towards the ordering station.

Mrs. Lu looked away from them and poured out the soup from the thermal flask into a bowl she had asked for earlier, before she then placed it in front of Zi Yi.

“Yiyi, the soup isn’t very hot now, so drink it when it’s warm.”

She then turned to Dou Xiangling. “Xiangling, you should also have some. There’s no need to be reserved with me.”

Dou Xiangling nodded her head and revealed a smile. “Okay, I won’t be reserved.”

She poured a bow! for herself immediately afterwards.

However, she was laughing brightly inside.

It seemed like Auntie had deliberately said those words to send those three male students away, right?

Zi Yi did not pay any attention to those things. She lifted the bowl and took a sip. “The soup you brewed is really delicious.”

Mrs. Lu burst into joy and she said, “Drink more if that’s the case. Mom shall prepare soup for you often in the future.”

After she visited a few more times, those youngsters would more or less know that she was Yiyi’s mother-in-law.

Mrs. Lu lifted her chopsticks and grabbed a piece of vegetable to taste it. “M.Uni’s canteen is as good as before.”

“Mom, you were a student of M.Uni in the past?”

“That’s right. I’m from the School of Fine Arts and I majored in design.”

“Ah, so Auntie is also knowledgeable in art!”

“Haha, that’s right.”

Dou Xiangling suddenly thought of the Song Jewelry under Mrs. Lu and she asked out of curiosity. “Auntie, the Song Jewelry has a very skilled and mysterious designer codenamed Miss S. Could that be Auntie?”

Mrs. Lu nodded. “Yes, that’s me.”

Dou Xiangling exclaimed in a low voice. “Oh heavens, so Auntie is Miss S! I’ve always liked the jewelry designs that Auntie designed.”

Mrs. Lu smiled and turned to look at Zi Yi. “Viyi, when you are free, follow me to make a trip down to Song Jewelry to look around?”

She already had plans to pass the jewelry shop to Zi Yi and she planned to bring her there to meet with the executives first.

Zi Yi was unaware of her plans and nodded. “Okay.”

The three of them continued to chat idly while they ate.

After they finished the meal, Zi Yi suddenly noticed something amiss. “Where did the three seniors disappear to?”

She then checked her surroundings and saw the three male students seated somewhere far away while waiting for her. She found it a little weird.

Dou Xiangling laughed and said, “I presume that they found it awkward to come back and take a seat. After all, Auntie has prepared tonic soup for you and if they came over to sit, we would find it awkward to have them look at us while we drink it without sharing any with them.”

Mrs. Lu agreed with Dou Xiangling’s explanation. “That’s right, I think what Xiangling said is right.”

Mrs. Lu asked Zi Yi, “Viyi, will you be staying in school to remove the snow in the afternoon?”

Zi Yi thought for a moment and shook her head. “I doubt it. The snow around the school grounds is more or less removed and I have to head over to the laboratory to do research in the afternoon.”

Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

She was confident about Zi Yi, but was worried about those male students.

Yiyi had such a beautiful appearance and it was normal for some of them to have a crush on her.

‘The three of them stood up just then and as soon as Ge Tao saw Zi Yi, Mrs. Lu, and Dou Xiangling standing up, they came over to them.

“Junior Zi, will we continue to remove snow later?”

“Lwon’t be tagging along,” Zi Yi said to them. “I have to head to the laboratory later and the three of you can finish up the rest.”

The three of them nodded their heads and took their leave.

Looking at the three departing back views, Mrs. Lu was satisfied deep down. It seems like these three male students were rather tactful.

Mrs. Lu then said to Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling, “Viyi, Xiangling, I’ll make my way back first then.”

Before she left she said to Dou Xiangling, “Xiangling, if it’s still raining at night, come over to Yiyi’s place to stay. I’ll be staying there these coming days and you can come over to accompany me too.”

Dou Xiangling nodded her head. “Alright, Auntie.”

The three of them headed outside together.

As soon as they came out of the canteen, they heard an exclamation from the side. “Oh heavens, this is so bad.”

Another person hastily asked, “What happened?”

‘The person showed her the phone. “Look, from the highway leaving the capital to L City, there was a series of car accidents where more than 30 cars had collided against each other due to the heavy snow and slippery roads.”

“Sii-… It looks pretty serious.”

“Lhope that those people are safe.”

The two of them lifted their umbrellas and walked away.

Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling sent Mrs. Lu to the car.

Mrs. Lu said, “Yiyi, drive slower when you come home later. I checked the weather forecast and it said that it would be even colder in the afternoon. The accumulation of snow on the road would definitely be more severe.”

Zi Yi nodded her head. “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll make a call to Ah Jing and have him get someone to remove the snow on the road that I always use.”

Mrs. Lu nodded her head and only then did she get in the car and leave.

Zi Yi took out a circular ball from her pocket and it unfolded into a flat disc. She then stuck it to one of the car tires before she stepped aside a little.

‘The car drove away soon after.

‘When the car disappeared from her line of sight, Dou Xiangling asked Zi Yi, “Viyi, do you want to return to my office first to take a rest?”

Zi Yi shook her head and just as she was about to speak, she saw Zhang Hanyu walking over with an umbrella in his hand.

Dou Xiangling had also noticed him.

After Zhang Hanyu made his way over, he revealed a smile and greeted Zi yi with a ‘hello’ before he spoke to Dou Xiangling. “You helped me with several lessons the last time and it just so happens that I don’t have any lessons in the afternoon. Why don’t I help you take over your class? You’ll have time to

draw your design drawings in that case.”

Dou Xiangling revealed a smile and nodded her head. “Sure. I was just thinking of drawing out the interior design of the art gallery within these next wfew days.”

She then turned to look at Zi Yi. “Yiyi, we’ll be leaving first then.”

Zi Yi nodded her head.

Zhang Hanyu tilted the umbrella in his hands towards Dou Xiangling and stopped her from opening another umbrella. The two of them left while walking side by side.

Zi Yi waited for them to walk further away before she turned around and walked to the School of Science and Technology.

However, she did not manage to walk a long distance before she received a call from the dean.

The Dean’s tone of voice sounded very serious, as he called for her to make a trip to his office right away.

By the time Zi Yi made her way over, she noticed several police cars parked outside the office building, but she did not pay them much attention.

She walked to the entrance and closed the umbrella in her hand. After she put her umbrella in the umbrella stand, she pushed the glass door and entered the building.

There was only a single teacher in the building right now. She hastily came over to Zi Yi when she saw her walking in. “Student Zi, you’re here. The Dean asked you to head over directly to his office to look for him.”

Zi Yi nodded and headed upstairs.

‘When she arrived at the Dean’s office, she knocked on the door.

The door was immediately opened for her.

The one opening the door for her was a man wearing a uniform.

He saw Zi Yi and made way for her to enter.

There were several other uniformed individuals standing inside.

Only the Dean and another middle-aged man, who was wearing a military coat that prevented one from discerning his rank, were seated.

The atmosphere inside the office seemed a little too serious.

The Dean called out to her. “Little Zi, come in..”
