The dead embarrassing past suddenly started attacking , catching Su Qing completely off guard. After all, who would have thought that university teachers nowadays look so young.
I rember it was back during my first year, just after finishing military training. The school organized a welco party for freshn, and then Wang Xing and I went out for a stroll. We happened to see two charming girls on the sports field.
At that ti, we were young and full of vigor. In high school, my family was strict, and I never dated anyone. I thought that once I got into university, I could finally fulfill my dream of dating.
Back then, Wang Xing even bet with that if I could get their WeChat numbers, we'd have free snacks for a week. Well, we did get the WeChat, but then we found out the girl was a school teacher. We ran away as fast as we could.
But we couldn't outrun fate. Two days later, we encountered her in the classroom. It was just that she was on the podium, and we were below. Talk about awkward — I wanted to dig a hole and bury myself in it.
And then... well, I've been retaking that course for years now.
From that incident, I learned a valuable lesson: never ss with university teachers.
If it goes well, they won't let you graduate because they don't want you to leave. If it doesn't go well, they'll keep you back to tornt you.
Either way, you can't escape.
Whenever there's a slight disagreent, if you argue, they imdiately threaten to fail you. It's miserable.
"Get lost! Even though I've graduated, I'm not afraid of anyone. Not even my mom scares , so why would a teacher?"
"Even if 'sleeping pills' have arrived, so what? At worst, I'll let my sister study for another year!"
Su Qing stubbornly said, with his neck stiffened.
In response, Wang Xing could only give a thumbs up: "Your sister is truly lucky to have you!"
In the end, after much persuasion from Wang Xing, Su Qing agreed to et the 'queen of the sea' tomorrow afternoon.
Of course, it wasn't just for Wang Xing. Su Qing also wanted to understand his own narrating abilities better.
After all, he usually edits videos at ho and rarely interacts with people. Going out would be a good change of pace, and it would also shut Wang Xing up. If Li Zijun found out about this, there'd be endless questions to answer. Never underestimate a professional's curiosity, especially a detective's — their suspicion is intense.
After seeing Su Qing agree, Wang Xing soon left. Firstly, to prepare for tomorrow, and secondly, to avoid Su Qing changing his mind. Naturally, Su Qing didn't treat him as a guest, either, because if he didn't leave, he'd have to serve him lunch.
Back ho, Su Qing turned on the computer and started his usual video editing. Although he didn't work for a company, his skills in editing, scripting, and voiceover were solid enough that he'd never starve. In the past couple of years, with the rise of self-dia on the internet, it practically beca a craft.
Editing videos wasn't difficult; it's just a matter of practice. What's challenging is scripting and doing his own voiceover.
His videos mainly focused on two areas: movies and daily life, with the forr being the bulk.
He had been running his video channel for over a year. He started it even before he graduated, and it had nearly a hundred thousand followers. It was called 'Too Green to Catch Up'.
On the surface, it seed like a phrase, but in reality, it was about his rivalry with the family's dog, Da Huang. Ever since Da Huang ca to live with them a year ago, his mom constantly compared Su Qing to the dog, which was unbearable.
Ti flew by, and it was past two in the afternoon. Su Qing stretched and finally finished editing the video, then uploaded it.
Watching the clicks slowly increase, Su Qing shook his head in resignation. As always, it was stable — neither going viral nor sinking like a stone. If things weren't working after all this ti, he would have found another job long ago.
'In the happy pond, there's a little frog, dancing like... possessed by a prince...'
Just then, a lively ringtone chid from his phone. It was a call from his dad, so he imdiately answered it.
"Hello, Dad!"
"Brother~~"
"What's wrong with you, using Dad's phone to call !"
"In the end, I'm being disliked by my brother. Alas, it's my fault for not being as pretty as girls outside." The lodramatic Su He had started her Lin Daiyu-style narrative again.
Su Qing: ...
"Get to the point, if you have sothing to say, say it!"
"Look at how hot and cold you are, brother. Are you feeling wronged talking to your sister?"
He couldn't figure out what he had done wrong in his past life to deserve such an eccentric family. In his childhood, things were fine, but since junior high, Su He sohow beca infatuated with Lin Daiyu.
What's worse is, she only uses this Lin Daiyu style on him. In front of others, she's a well-behaved girl, especially in front of her parents, where she becos a little sycophant.
"Brother~ Do you... really not like ?"
"You said you'd visit in a few days, and I've waited days and suffered 365 days of hardship..."
Saying that, she started singing on the phone.
"Alright, alright, what do you want? Just say it, spare the drama!"
Hearing this, Su He on the other side of the phone imdiately bead: "Brother, Dad wants you to return the car. I was thinking, since you're on the way, could you bring a cup of milk tea?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qing let out a sigh of relief. Besides, he did need to go back today: "Got it, I'm hanging up now!"
"Wait, brother."
"What else?"
"How about so spicy duck neck, chicken wings, potato chips, lon seeds, yogurt, sausage, matcha mini cakes, shrimp strips, jelly..."
Before Su He could finish listing, Su Qing had already hung up the phone.
He's going to the store, not opening one. If he let her continue, she'd eat up half his monthly salary.
He's already broke. The reward for his good deed hasn't shown up yet, and he didn't have the nerve to ask for it after just one day.
Gathering up his things, Su Qing prepared to head ho. After all, his dad would need the car for work tomorrow, and he could already imagine the earful he'd get otherwise.
With that thought, he didn't hesitate. Grabbing the car keys, he headed downstairs and drove ho, stopping by a bookstore on the way.
When he got ho, it was already past four in the afternoon.
As soon as he opened the door to the living room, the sound of barking erupted in the room.
"Woof woof woof, woof woof woof!"
Seeing Da Huang blocking his way, it didn't look like a warm welco at all.
[Da Huang, not considering itself a dog, is unhappy about your return. It's afraid you'll take over its spot, so it wants to chase you away]
Su Qing: -_-|||
Alright, without the narration, he'd never have guessed a dog's internal world could be so rich.
"What the heck are you barking at? Co here, let's have a duel!"
Da Huang: "Woof woof woof" [You think I'd f you!]
Su Qing: (艹皿艹)
"Co on, duel with !"
"Co on, bite , bring it on!"
Da Huang: "Woof woof woof" [Bring it on!]
"Bring it on! Today, I'll make sure you poop yourself!" Su Qing was also enraged. Ard with the narration, he was ready to challenge the dog.
After all, he's the owner of the house, an officer no less. Can he really let a dog insult him?
When Su He ca out, she imdiately saw her brother glaring at Da Huang, tension filling the air, and couldn't help but laugh:
"Look at the watchdog versus the single dog, tsk tsk tsk, two dogs fighting!"
Su Qing: (‵□′)───C＜─___-)||
