chapter 37 A Returning Student's Visit

"Well... it's not completely out of the question!" Yi Pin flashed a smile.

Thinking that he had been busy with the law firm's affairs recently and hadn't had a good rest, he followed Shen Yu to the school.

It seemed that everything was changing, but the scholarly aura of the school remained as distinct as ever.

On the way, he encountered many young faces. There were smiles and anticipation on their faces. They had no idea how desolate it would be when they left the school four years later.

He seemed to see himself when he first entered the school. Although he pretended to be calm, he was still a bit expectant because a new life was about to begin.

However, after four years of eating and sleeping, he felt like he was turning into a good - for - nothing.

But people should still have something to look forward to. At least they should have some expectations for life.

The most important thing for a person living in this world was to have something to look forward to. If there was nothing to look forward to in life, how could one go on living? What could one rely on to keep going? Just the body?

Walking on the campus, he felt inexplicably sad. Sometimes it was like this. Just looking at the fallen leaves by the roadside made him feel heart - broken.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yu patted Yi Pin on the shoulder and flashed a smile.

"Nothing!" Yi Pin averted his eyes and gave a slight smile.

He followed Shen Yu's back to the office. When he was still a student, he hated coming to the office the most. Maybe this was the nightmare of naughty students.

Shen Yu went in first, with a faint smile on his lips.

When the female teachers in the office saw Shen Yu come in, their eyes lit up and they tried to be nice to him.

Yi Pin raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, this was an era when people judged by appearance.

Yi Pin stood awkwardly at the office door, hands in his pockets. Many of the teachers had taught him before, but he had no good memories of them.

"Come in!" Shen Yu looked back and smiled. That innocent yet somewhat menacing smile always made people feel enchanted.

Yi Pin scratched his head and walked in awkwardly.

"Isn't this the one who used to sleep all day? From our department... Yi something?"

A female teacher with glasses pointed at Yi Pin and said with a smile.

Yi Pin was suddenly called out and scratched his head awkwardly. It was true that one would eventually pay for one's past deeds.

"Oh, really?" Shen Yu had a hint of a smile on his lips. He looked back at Yi Pin and smiled, like a kind - hearted parent watching a child being scolded.

Yi Pin walked in, looking embarrassed.

After they stayed in the office for a while, they left. When they walked out, Yi Pin let out a sigh of relief. He felt it was a kind of liberation because those female teachers were really a bit scary.

"What? Are you scared, sleepy Yi?"

Shen Yu had a doting smile on his lips and stared at Yi Pin in front of him.

"No!" Yi Pin also smiled. "If I fell asleep in her class, it must be because her class was meaningless. She just read from the textbook over and over again."

Shen Yu raised the corners of his mouth. This was indeed true.

"I... want to attend your class!" Yi Pin smiled and stared directly at Shen Yu in front of him, his big eyes blinking.

There was a look of expectation in his eyes.

"Then... don't fall asleep in my class!" Shen Yu smiled.

So the two of them patiently went to a freshman class.

Looking at those eager and somewhat expectant faces, Yi Pin suddenly felt a bit flustered.

"Good morning, everyone. Today I'd like to introduce a new friend and also a senior who is here to sit in on the class."

Shen Yu's smile spread.

There was a buzz below. The girls were discussing Yi Pin's appearance, while the boys were staring blankly at the beaming Shen Yu. They had never seen the usually cold - hearted Teacher Shen so openly happy.

Yi Pin nodded and went to sit in the last row.

He could feel the eyes constantly looking back at him, staring directly at him.

Shen Yu's class was very interesting. Maybe it was because Yi Pin had never met a teacher like Shen Yu in the previous years. He was both a teacher and a friend, and his teaching methods were innovative.

Although the whole class seemed restless and everyone was eyeing Yi Pin warily, the class was well - taught.

Yi Pin just sat there in the last row, staring at Shen Yu on the podium. Shen Yu was wearing a white shirt, with a cold yet extremely handsome face and a faint smile on his lips.

The sunlight came in through the window and shone on Shen Yu's chiseled face.

A gentle breeze blew and lifted Shen Yu's black hair slightly.

The sunlight was a bit blinding after being refracted by the glasses.

Yi Pin watched quietly but felt a bit nervous. He felt inexplicably comfortable in his heart, but his face was flushed.

Shen Yu had a smile on his lips, and that smile was so dazzling. Yi Pin didn't know if it was because he had a guilty conscience, but he always felt that Shen Yu was looking back at him intentionally or unintentionally, staring directly at him.

This class was the fastest one in his life. In the blink of an eye, it was over.

Looking at the swarming freshmen girls, all struggling to ask for Yi Pin's WeChat.

Yi Pin frowned. How could today's little girls be so unreserved?

Seeing Yi Pin surrounded, Shen Yu still had a smile on his face. He stood on the podium and watched quietly.

"Get out of the way!"

Yi Pin said coldly with a straight face.

Obviously, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect this handsome guy to have such a bad temper.

But girls were really strange creatures. The colder a guy was, the more excited they got.

"I said, get out of the way!"

Yi Pin said coldly, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

Maybe because he shouted so loudly, the girls were startled and murmured as they stepped back.

Shen Yu watched Yi Pin's furious appearance and laughed heartily.

"Let's go!"

Yi Pin glanced at Shen Yu and raised his eyebrows in disbelief. This guy was so calm while watching him being in trouble.

The two of them walked towards the door with a smile on their lips.

"By the way, you're really different at school from your usual self!" Yi Pin smiled and stared blankly at Shen Yu's profile.

Shen Yu shrugged and the corners of his mouth turned up.

When the two of them returned to the law firm together, Zixuan and Gu Yang were sitting in the office, drinking tea.

Shen Yu frowned. Seeing Zixuan sitting on the chair, smiling faintly at Yi Pin, his heart tightened.

"Why are you here?"

Yi Pin smiled, but his peripheral vision was always on Shen Yu behind him.

"Of course, I'm here to celebrate your victory in the lawsuit!"

Zixuan slowly pulled up her hair and walked over to kiss Yi Pin on the face.

Shen Yu kept a cold face and watched quietly. Anger welled up in his heart.

Yi Pin was obviously shocked and looked incredulous.
