Chapter 348: See How Pretty Your Wife is When She’s in Her Work Mode
When Zi Yi and Mrs. Lu arrived at the control room, Professor Qin from the Computer Science Department was already there.
Other than Professor Qin, there was someone else inside the control room.
That person should be a senior student. He was wearing royal blue casual wear and he had long, slender legs. His appearance was rather handsome and especially those eyes of his that curved up; they made him seem like he was constantly smiling. At the same time, he gave off a hint of wisdom and from a single glance, he seemed to be someone that was skilled.
The senior student and Professor Qin were in a conversation. When they heard footsteps, they turned around to take a look.
The moment Professor Qin saw Zi Yi, he smiled and said, “Student Zi, you’ve come just in time. I was just talking to Nangong Yu about you.”
He then shifted his gaze to Mrs. Lu and was somewhat surprised. “This lady seems a little familiar?”
Mrs. Lu introduced herself in a natural manner. “I am Little Zi’s elder, my surname is Song.” She then added, “I heard that there’s an event tonight in M.Uni so I tagged along with Little Zi. Would I be disturbing you?”
“Don’t worry, you’re not disturbing us.”
Professor Qin pointed at the chair on the side and said, “Ms. Song, please take a seat. I think you might not have an admission ticket, I’ll get someone to deliver one shortly.”
“That’s very kind of you, thank you.” Mrs. Lu walked over and sat down, she refrained from disturbing them.
Only then did Professor Qin introduce the student beside him to Zi Yi. “I doubt Student Zi knows Student Nangong Yu. He’s the President of the Student Union.”
Nangong Yu smiled and said, “Hello, Junior Zi.”
Zi Yi nodded and responded, “Hello.”
After they exchanged greetings, Nangong Yu said, “The Computer Science Department and Mechanical Engineering Department are responsible for all of the projection and safety control for tonight’s event. The Student Union will be responsible for otherf things.”
Speaking up to here, he pointed at the monitor before Professor Qin and informed them of the specific arrangements for tonight’s event.
Mrs. Lu sat there awhile and listened to their conversation for a while, before she suddenly thought of something and took out a phone to send a message.
[Send someone to follow Li Peirong. If she does anything, immediately inform me.]
After sending the message, Mrs. Lu thought of her son who was still working hard at home. She then turned on her camera and captured Zi Yi’s serious expression and sent it over.
She also added a sentence together with the message.
[Son, see how pretty your wife is when she’s in her work mode.]
After she finished typing that sentence, she then looked up at Nangong Yu standing beside Zi Yi and continued to type. [You need to have a sense of urgency. There are too many young and handsome men in M.Uni.]
She sent the message to Lu Jingye after she finished typing.
He should be quite busy on his end and he did not immediately reply to her message.
Mrs. Lu did not mind and kept her phone to continue looking at Zi Yi who was in a discussion with the other two. The more she looked at her, the more she found her pleasing to the eye.
After they finished their discussion, Nangong Yu suddenly asked Zi Yi, “I heard that Junior Zi will be performing for one of the programs tonight?”
Zi Yi nodded her head and said, “Yes.”
“Then I’ll look forward to seeing Junior Zi’s wonderful performance.”
Zi Yi was not modest in the slightest as she said, “Okay.”
Professor Qin could not help but smile. “Student Zi seems to be confident in all aspects. But I’m really curious about what you will be performing?”
“Professor Qin will know when the time comes.”
“So it’s also a confidential performance huh.”
“Yes.”
“Hahaha… then I can only wait and see!”
Just then, Zi Yi’s phone rang.
The call was from a few Ph.D. students. They would be assisting Zi Yi tonight and earlier on, they had gone to change their clothes and have dinner, so they only arrived now.
Zi Yi planned to check the robots together with them and she notified Professor Qin and Nangong Yu.
Mrs. Lu was about to stand up and Zi Yi told her. “Auntie Song, you can stay here. We will be walking about and you’ll find it tiring.”
In reality, Mrs. Lu was not afraid of being tired. But at the thought that perhaps Zi Yi might be distracted if she followed her around, she sat down again. “Alright then.”
Professor Qin was also heading out to do one last check and so, he said, “If Ms. Song is bored, you can watch some movies or play some songs.”
He then pointed at one of the computers. “You can use this computer.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Only then did the three of them leave.
After they left the control room, Professor Qin headed to the front counter while Zi Yi headed outside.
Nangong Yu followed her and while they walked, he casually asked, “I heard that Junior Zi had applied for several majors in one go?”
Zi Yi replied to him with a small affirmative and did not say anything else.
Nangong Yu lightly chuckled. “It seems like Junior Zi does not like to talk much with strangers?”
Zi Yi glanced at him and did not answer his question.
Nangong Yu was unoffended by her attitude and continued to speak. “For someone as special as Junior Zi, I doubt there’s anyone in the Student Union who doesn’t know you. Your abilities are very admirable.”
Zi Yi looked towards him again and finally opened her mouth. “For you to be capable of taking the seat of the President of the Student Union, your abilities aren’t lacking either.”
Nangong Yu was slightly stunned. He would often receive praise from people, but when he suddenly received praise from the ‘rumored’ Junior, he suddenly felt a strange feeling deep down.
It was just like an adult being praised by a child.
When they were about to reach the side exit, Nangong Yu stopped. He was heading in another direction and so, he said, “Junior Zi, if you require any help, you can call me anytime.”
Zi Yi nodded and said politely, “Thanks, but there’s nothing I need your help with.”
After she said her piece, she headed outside.
Nangong Yu stood on the spot and watched her departing back view and lowered his eyes. Just then footsteps could be heard from behind him.
“How’s it? Junior Zi is pretty, right?”
Nangong Yu turned to look at Chu Xuan walking towards him and he smiled while nodding. “She’s indeed a pretty Junior, but I feel that compared to her looks, her abilities should be pretty good too.”
“Of course, she’s not only a member of the Painting and Calligraphy Association, but she would also often follow Professor Dou Xiaoyong into the Science and Technology Building. Although she’s his niece, do you think he’s someone that would bring a useless person inside?”
Nangong Yu squinted his eyes and sized up Chu Xuan before he asked, “You seem to pay special attention to this Junior Zi?”
Chu Xuan revealed a calm expression. “I’m preparing to chase her, so of course I need to know my target well.”
Nangong Yu looked at his expression for several seconds before he said, “She should have a boyfriend.”
“So what if she has a boyfriend? It’s a fair game.”
Nangong Yu nodded his head and did not say anything else as he headed somewhere else.
Chu Xuan followed him and said in a seemingly unintentional manner, “When Yu Xuan went to talk to her about participating in tonight’s event, she mentioned to her the benefits of being a member of the Student Union. You wanna guess what she said?”
Nangong Yu also answered in a casual tone, “Could it be that she wishes to be the President of the Student Union?”
“That’s right.” Chu Xuan smiled and said, “That’s exactly what she said.”
He then stared at Nangong Yu’s expression.
Nangong Yu nodded. “It’s good that Junior Zi has such aspirations. If she has the ability, I’m willing to give up the position.”
Chu Xuan joked. “For reals? Then you better not make things difficult for her when the time comes. Otherwise, I will stand on her side.”
Nangong Yu merely used his eyes that seemed to be smiling and looked at him, but did not say anything else.
