Chapter 19: Rumors!

  If you are interested in something, then time will seem very short.

  Qin Luo's two classes ended unknowingly, and when he picked up his books to leave, everyone realized that their teacher Qin was leaving.

  "Ah, how did it end so quickly? I thought there was still another class."

  "Yes. When is the next 'Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostics' class?"

  "It seems like Wednesday. It's in two days."

  "Waaahhh... I won't be able to see Teacher Qin tomorrow. I'll miss him."

  Wang Jiujui hesitated for a moment, then quickly stuffed his textbook into his canvas backpack and chased after him, shouting: "Teacher Qin."

  Qin Luo turned around and saw that it was the first student he had met in class, so he smiled and said: "I told you, you would definitely succeed. Didn't I?"

  "Teacher Qin, aren't you being too shameless? I don't think you're a handsome guy at all." Wang Jiujin chuckled and two deep, enchanting dimples appeared on her face.

  "Really?" Qin Luo said regretfully. "I'm a handsome guy. Or, take another look?"

  "No." Wang Jiujiao shook his head. "However, you're a stylish guy. Look, nowadays guys wearing long gowns are really cool. Except for our principal occasionally wearing one, among the boys, only you dare to wear it like this."

  "I'm a man, not a boy." Qin Luo smiled and shook his head.

  "You're just a boy. Not much older than us." Wang Jiujin said stubbornly. "By the way, Teacher Qin, there's something I need to remind you of."

  "What?" Qin Luo looked at her clear and enchanting eyes and asked. He didn't expect that a girl studying traditional Chinese medicine would be so beautiful.

  Qin Luo had just arrived and naturally didn't know that Wang Jiujiu was renowned throughout the entire medical college.

  It is said that on the first day of freshman registration, a student union minister took advantage of the situation to flirt with her while helping her pull her luggage, trying to take advantage of her. She was thrown into the koi pond with a shoulder throw on the spot.

  Everyone present was petrified, they didn't expect a delicate and lovely girl to be so fierce and terrifying. Even more unthinkable was how the weak and feeble her could have such great strength.

  Because of this, she became famous in school. Also because of her height and long legs, her appearance and temperament have a few similarities with the female lead Quan Zhixian from the popular Korean drama "My Sassy Girl" a few years ago, so everyone gave her the nickname "Wild Girlfriend".

  Usually in class, no one dares to sit with her, but Qin Luo, this newcomer, doesn't know better and goes over to join her, arousing her curiosity.

  It's precisely because of her notorious reputation that just now in the classroom, when everyone was questioning Qin Luo's identity, she scolded them and not a single person dared to stand up and refute her.

  "Ma Heng's family background is not simple. If you make him lose face today, he will definitely take revenge on you." Wang Jiujin said worriedly.

  Ma Heng?

  "Yes, that student you drove out." Wang Jiujin reminded.

  "Oh. So his name is Ma Heng, huh." Qin Luo nodded. "I didn't drive him out, he was the one who didn't want to attend my class. When the school investigates, you guys have to testify for me."

  "Heh heh, Teacher Qin, I'm just kindly reminding you. You should be careful of his revenge. He frequently comes and goes with some people outside the school."

  "Someone from outside the school? I also came in from outside." Qin Luo said. Thinking to himself, if this kid just lets it go, that's fine, but if he doesn't know what's good for him and wants revenge, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

  "Hmph. Anyway, I've told you. You take care of yourself." Wang Jiujiao said. After thinking for a moment, he asked slyly: "Teacher Qin, what's your phone number? My mom has contracted some strange illness, if there's anything wrong, can I call you to ask for advice?"

  "What kind of disease?" Qin Luo asked strangely.

  "It's like this - every time she comes, her stomach hurts a lot. And also, she likes to get angry for no reason. Even small things can make her fly into a rage." Wang Jiuyi said with a sudden burst of inspiration. Where did she come up with such a strange illness?

  Mom, for your daughter's lifelong happiness, you just make a sacrifice this once.

  "What kind of strange disease is this? This belongs to menstrual blockage. Avoid raw, cold, spicy food and drink more brown sugar water - these are the most basic knowledge, you're studying medicine, shouldn't you understand?" Qin Luo asked in puzzlement.

  "Ah. That... my mom's illness is different from others. It's just very strange, I don't dare to tell you clearly. You understand, it's a woman's problem. Hehe, give me your phone number, if there's anything, I can call and ask for your advice." Wang Jiujin said evasively.

  First get this kid's phone number by deceit, and then think of ways to 'pursue him' later.

  "I don't have a phone." Qin Luo shook his head and said.

  "No phone? Teacher Qin, aren't you from Shennongjia? In this day and age, who doesn't use a mobile phone? You're not unwilling to tell me, are you? Don't worry, I won't spread it around."

  Qin Luo smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I really don't have a mobile phone."

  Qin Luo didn't lie, he really had no mobile phone.

  Before, when he was at home, because of his physical condition, Grandpa didn't allow him to touch those electronic devices with radiation.

  And even if he had a mobile phone, no one would call him anyway.

  So, Qin Luo has lived for so many years and still doesn't have a mobile phone of his own.

  "Alright then. I'll believe you for now." Wang Jiujiao nodded and said, "If there's anything wrong with my mom, I'll still have to ask for your advice."

  "Don't worry. As long as I can help." Qin Luo said seriously.

  "That's it then. Bye bye." Wang Jiujin stuffed the earpiece into his ear, walking away while waving goodbye to Qin Luo with one hand.

  This girl has a kind of easy-going and decisive temperament that is usually found in men.

  This temperament is especially charming when it appears in a woman.

  Because Lin Xuanxi still had two classes in the afternoon, Qin Luo didn't even bother to go back alone. He decided to go to the office and sit for a while.

  Qin Luo was just a lecturer and naturally didn't have an independent office.

  His desk was left by his predecessor, in a corner near the window. As long as her face tilted forty-five degrees to the right, she could see a patch of camphor trees and a winding path paved with gravel outside.

  This large office is shared by more than a dozen teachers, all of whom are lecturers and administrative staff at the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

  Qin Luo walked into the office with a book in hand, and there were only a few teachers who had classes in the afternoon. Those without classes wouldn't come to school at all; it was better for them to find a small hospital to sit in than waste their time here.

  Moreover, Capital Medical University also has its own affiliated hospital, so teachers don't have to worry about finding a place to make extra money.

  "Xiao Qin, was your first day of class smooth?" asked a male teacher in his fifties.

  Under the introduction of Director Guo, Qin Luo knew that his surname was Zhu and he was a teacher who lectured on "Selected Readings of Internal Classics". Due to his seniority, he had considerable prestige in the office. Apart from the director of the office, what he said carried significant weight.

  "Hmm, okay." Qin Luo said. He saw a mocking expression on Teacher Zhu's face.

  "Nowadays, kids are all quite impulsive. If they say something unpleasant, don't take it to heart. The two teachers who taught 'Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostics' before you both couldn't take the pressure and left - don't lower yourself to their level." On the surface, this is a consolation to Qin Luo, but in reality, it's a confirmation that Qin Luo's teaching abilities are not up to par and will be attacked by those students.

  "No way. I think they're quite obedient." Qin Luo said with a smile, carrying his textbook to his own office desk and sitting down.

  "Hehe, it's good that young people have energy." Teacher Zhu chuckled twice with a poker face, then turned to ask a bespectacled fat teacher, "Little Zheng, what did you just say? Which teacher is having an affair with a student?"

  "Hey, Teacher Zhu, you're interested in this too? Hehe, you definitely can't guess who it is." The fat guy smiled with a sly face. These teachers standing on the platform as role models for others are just like ordinary men when they're off the stage.

  Chatting nonsense about women. Nothing special.

  "There are so many teachers in school, how can I guess?" said Zhu Laoshi with a frown.

  "Hmm, which one is the most famous?"

  "Is it Li Jiancheng or Lin Huanxi?" asked Teacher Zhu. These were the two most famous beauties among the teachers at Medical University, one passionate like fire and the other cold as ice, nicknamed by students as "Ice Fire Double Heavens".

  "Huh, if it were Lian Qingcheng, would everyone have such a fierce reaction? Isn't there news of her changing boyfriends every day?" said the fatty with a smile.

  "Could it be Lin Huanxi?" Teacher Zhu's tone was full of surprise. It was precisely because these two women were too famous that everyone was familiar with their personalities.

  Someone with a study abroad background, said to be very open-minded in that regard. Changes boyfriends every week, completely treating men as male pets.

  Lin Huanxi was the opposite, she was a person who kept people at arm's length. Any man who spoke to her for more than three sentences would make her frown, with an expression of disgust on her face. At that time, even the thickest-skinned guy couldn't help but flee in panic.

  Qin Luo wasn't paying much attention to their conversation, but when he heard Lin Xuanxi's name from their mouths, he couldn't help but eavesdrop carefully. It seemed that this matter was related to Lin Xuanxi.

  "Yes, I also heard it from a friend in the Biomedical Engineering Department. Now the whole Bioengineering College is buzzing with the news. It's said that Lin Xuanxi's student fans are even offering a high price to search for and beat up the guy who dared to seduce their beloved idol."

  "This is too much! What are these teachers thinking? What kind of man can't find someone and instead goes after a student?"

  "Haha, what's going on? Has Zhu teacher not been online recently? A middle school math teacher and the class representative were passionately kissing in the classroom. And that teacher is still a married man."

  "What a moral decay! As a teacher, how can you do that with your own student? Lin Huanxi is also shameless. I think the school leadership should severely criticize teachers' quality education at the all-teacher meeting. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will definitely be crooked."

  When Qin Luo heard Teacher Zhu's words, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

  He scolded the middle school math teacher who had a wife, but Qin Luo didn't have any opinion. Instead, he would welcome him with open arms and legs. He wouldn't even spare his underage little sister, he's simply a beast in human skin.

  But how can he scold Lin Xunxi for being shameless? Lin Xunxi is an unmarried young woman, and he himself is an unmarried young man. It's normal for the two of them to be like dry wood and raging fire, isn't it?

  Besides, it was Chen Xiaoxue, that gossipmonger, who intentionally ruined Lin Xuanxi's reputation and spread the news. What does she have to do with Lin Xuanxi?

  Qin Luo raised his head and said with a smile: "What's the big deal? Love is originally unrelated to age, nationality, gender, or number of people."
