CHAPTER 44: CHAPTER 44: BORROWING BOOKS

In no time, the second lesson was over, and Zhao Heng went up to ask a few questions. The old professor answered patiently, making Zhao Heng feel that attending the lecture was truly worthwhile.

After answering Zhao Heng’s questions, the old professor urged him to apply for his graduate program before leaving.

Maybe because there were only two classes in the morning, when the lecture ended, Zhao Heng noticed it was not yet eleven. The cafeteria wasn’t open for meals yet. Looking around, he saw that the classmates were still in the classroom, probably waiting for lunch.

Thinking it was still early, Zhao Heng returned to his seat, took out his notes, and began to revise.

As he was reviewing his notes, a few girls sitting nearby couldn’t help but glance at him frequently.

After all, in a university full of young boys, a strikingly handsome guy like Zhao Heng with a calm demeanor was rare.

"Senior, what’s your major?"

Finally, a cute girl couldn’t resist turning around from the front row to ask.

With her question, several other girls in the front row also turned around, evidently intrigued by Zhao Heng.

"I’m already working."

Zhao Heng replied blandly.

"Working? Senior, which hospital are you at?"

The cute girl continued to ask, clearly very curious about Zhao Heng, her eyes sparkling.

"Eastern Hospital."

Zhao Heng replied.

"Wow!"

Around him came a chorus of amazed gasps.

That’s the Eastern Hospital!

In North City, it’s undoubtedly one of the top three elite hospitals!

"Senior, you are amazing! Can I ask which department you are in?"

The cute girl looked at Zhao Heng with admiration.

"Surgery."

Zhao Heng continued to reply indifferently.

"Senior is auditing the professor’s class, so you must be an anesthesiologist."

The cute girl pursued relentlessly.

"Yes."

Zhao Heng nodded, focusing on his notes and not interested in chatting with the cute girl.

Immediately, the nearby girls looked at Zhao Heng with starry eyes.

This charming guy with such poise and charisma! An Eastern Hospital doctor, it’s the perfect boyfriend every female student dreams of!

Realizing this, two of the girls felt a bit restless as they gazed at Zhao Heng.

The girls wanted to ask more, but Zhao Heng turned cold, answering the cute girl’s question out of politeness, but he had neither the time nor the energy to flirt with college girls.

Seeing Zhao Heng suddenly distant, his aura radiating, the girls felt intimidated and stopped their advances.

Zhao Heng was glad for the peace.

After a while, Zhao Heng suddenly heard a voice beside him.

"Excuse me, are you Zhao Heng?"

Looking up, Zhao Heng saw a delicate girl with glasses, appearing about twenty-four or five, holding a stack of materials.

"Yes, I am. What’s the matter?"

Zhao Heng nodded, wondering what this delicate girl wanted.

"I’m Shu Xiu, Professor Huang’s assistant. The professor asked me to give you these materials."

The delicate girl, Shu Xiu, adjusted her glasses and said calmly as if Zhao Heng’s handsome appearance had no effect on her.

"Thank you, thanks."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Heng stood up, took the materials with both hands, feeling immensely grateful to the old professor.

"I’ve delivered them, I’m leaving."

Shu Xiu said briefly, then turned and left without hesitation.

"Please convey my gratitude to the professor."

Zhao Heng added.

"Okay."

Shu Xiu nodded coldly.

Holding the materials and watching the delicate girl Shu Xiu leave the classroom, Zhao Heng felt that she seemed a bit special.

Zhao Heng thought she was a bit like Song Chen, yet the feeling she gave him was different.

Zhao Heng sat down, opened the materials, and found they were related to the questions he had asked earlier, mainly introducing cutting-edge international research and papers.

There was also a book list attached, and Zhao Heng noticed they were essential textbooks for the anesthesiologist exam.

Seeing these materials touched Zhao Heng, these elders were truly pure hearted.

"Senior, will you come to attend the class again in the future?"

At this moment, the cute junior asked hopefully.

This calm and handsome guy was incredibly attractive to her sweet and soft nature.

The male students in the same university couldn’t compare to Zhao Heng.

"I’ll come if I have time."

Zhao Heng said nonchalantly while browsing the book list from the old professor.

"Senior, are you aiming to become an anesthesiologist? How about I take you to the library? These professional books are hard to find. I have a library card you can use."

The cute junior, seeing Zhao Heng’s book list, said cleverly.

Got ahead of me!

Why didn’t I think of that!

The junior’s words caused a few girls nearby to sigh inwardly!

What?

You think girls can’t be this forward?

That’s because a girl who isn’t forward hasn’t met a truly handsome guy.

When a girl meets a heart-throbbing handsome guy, her boldness can be astounding.

"Alright, please lead the way then."

Zhao Heng wanted to refuse, but then thought about it - finding these books and getting a library card would take time, and right now, time was what he lacked most.

"Okay, let’s go, senior. I’ll take you."

The cute junior nodded happily.

Zhao Heng got up decisively and followed the cute junior out of the classroom.

"Shu Xin usually seems so gentle and soft. How come she’s so brave now?!"

Seeing the two leave, a girl remarked.

"She’s just keeping her cards close and then making a mighty move."

Another girl commented.

Outside the classroom, Zhao Heng walked while savoring the long-missed university atmosphere.

Shu Xin chatted away, sharing her name, hobbies, and even her zodiac sign.

Strangely, Zhao Heng usually disliked talkative girls like Shu Xin.

But for this Shu Xin, Zhao Heng didn’t mind.

The reason might be that Shu Xin was just too sweet.

Men, after all, who doesn’t like sweet girls!

Soon, they reached the library, and Shu Xin quickly found the books for Zhao Heng, checking them out using her library card.

Exiting the library, Zhao Heng looked at Shu Xin and said, "Thank you for your trouble."

The young girl had searched for and borrowed books for him, so it wouldn’t have been right to leave coldly.

"No trouble, no trouble."

Hearing Zhao Heng’s words, Shu Xin felt a sweet warmth in her heart as if filled with honey.

"How about I treat you to lunch?"

Zhao Heng thought it over and tentatively asked.

It wouldn’t be appropriate to just walk away after she helped him.

"Okay, senior, we can eat in the cafeteria. It’s cheaper."

Shu Xin nodded, her sweet smile on her face.

She even thinks about saving money?

Do female students nowadays still consider saving money?!

Instantly, Zhao Heng saw this cute and sweet girl in a different light.

Of course, this was also because Zhao Heng was still quite poor.

Hahaha!
