CHAPTER 155: 92. THE WORDS THAT ONLY YOU AND I CAN UNDERSTAND (8,000 CHARACTERS)_4

.

About an hour later, Tang Yanqing came back laughing and chatting with Zhong Kui, Mark, and a few other boys. Mark stood at the door, saying goodbye to Tang Yanqing and Zhong Kui, while his eyes scanned the room.

Shi Nian happened to come out to make tea and awkwardly greeted them.

Mark looked over with deep eyes, "... Is everything okay now?"

Shi Nian knew he was asking about last night, so he nodded with a smile, "Everything’s fine."

Tang Yanqing went into the room to change clothes, then came out holding two Go boards. He glanced at Spicy Girl first, "Do you know how to play Go?"

Spicy Girl quickly waved her hand, "Professor, spare me, I get sleepy just looking at it."

Tang Yanqing then raised an eyebrow at Shi Nian, "You surely do. Come and play a game with me." Without waiting for Shi Nian’s agreement, he turned and went back into the room.

Shi Nian could only shrug. Spicy Girl smiled sympathetically, "For sleep, it’s just us two Chinese in 507."

Shi Nian apologized and said goodbye to Mark, then went into Tang Yanqing’s room.

Tang Yanqing had already set up the Go board on the table, holding black stones in his left hand and white stones in his right, both hands playing simultaneously, moving the stones skillfully and rapidly. In no time, more than half the board was set up.

Shi Nian felt a bit dizzy watching and couldn’t help but say, "So Professor T can play blindfolded Go himself, and called me in just to be an audience?"

"Hmph~" He snorted, placed a few more stones, examined it with satisfaction, then finally stopped, raising an eyebrow at her, "Alright, the black stones are weak enough, and the white stones are gracious enough, but the general outcome is already decided."

Shi Nian shrugged, "With your intelligence, Professor, how did you end up with a black stone that lacks intelligence?"

He rolled his eyes in frustration, looking at her for a second, "... That black stone was my move for you."

"Pfft—" Shi Nian almost spat out her tea.

He then cheerfully shrugged, "I said I called you in to play Go. If you go out later and there’s not even a decent endgame on the board, why would anyone believe it? People would automatically imagine we’re doing something inappropriate in here alone."

Shi Nian almost choked again.

He crossed his arms proudly, "Actually, I don’t mind if they imagine things. What bothers me is, if they imagine it and nothing actually happens, then I’m at a loss."

Shi Nian was truly at a loss, taking a few deep breaths before barely managing to say, "Professor, let’s talk about something serious."

Tang Yanqing sat down too, pulled his chair in front of her, and their knees almost touched.

Shi Nian carefully inhaled and quickly turned her leg to the side, "Have you ever seen the Dean before?"

Tang Yanqing shook his head, "The daily management of Kangchuan University is handled by the president. The Dean is just a funder and does not participate in specific teaching management."

"But he seems to appreciate you quite a bit." Shi Nian relayed Huangfu Huazhang’s words.

Tang Yanqing laughed, "I guess I have no choice. Someone like me shines no matter where I am, and no one can ignore my brilliance."

Shi Nian really had nothing more to say...

After discussing the Dean, Shi Nian changed the topic, "Now, I’m more concerned about whether Mr. Tang has any predictions about Zhou Guanghan’s case?"

Tang Yanqing blinked and waved a finger at Shi Nian.

Shi Nian leaned closer, and Tang Yanqing opened his laptop. He clicked open a folder, which contained many photos of girls, all Asian, with delicate features and clear eyes. Their expressions were slightly shy and guarded, yet they all looked so young and beautiful.

Shi Nian squinted, "These photos are... surely not the same girls Sean mentioned that he secretly took pictures of, right?"

"Bingo." Tang Yanqing looked at her approvingly.

"But... how did you get them? Did you confront Sean?" Shi Nian was slightly worried.

"No need." Tang Yanqing blinked mischievously, "I simply had Guan Liang hack into his phone, and everything was at my fingertips."

Shi Nian was at a loss for words, "Mr. Guan, he actually has such a skill?"

"Hmph, unlike someone who only notices how well he rides a motorcycle, only wanting him to be a paparazzo, huh?" He raised an eyebrow, his face full of defiance.

"Who told you that?" Shi Nian was startled, then immediately understood, "Oh, it must have been Ye He who sold me out." She had only mentioned it to Ye He.

Tang Yanqing grinned cheekily, "Ye He even told me the passwords to all her IC cards, IPs, and IQ cards."

Shi Nian covered her face in mortification. Well, Ye He had long since fallen for him, and with just a smile from him, what wouldn’t that girl say?
