After the start of school at Bath, for Su Xiaong, ti beca incredibly fast, and the sense of pressure also grew with each passing day.
Half a month seed like the blink of an eye.
She personally experienced the differences in educational systems between universities at ho and abroad.
Dostic universities emphasize basic theoretical knowledge, while abroad the priority is practice, and students are often required to summarize theories themselves.
Students from various countries gather together, mostly communicating in English, unlike other classmates, Xiao ng didn’t live in the school dormitory.
Her routine of coming to class and leaving imdiately after also led to her lack of communication with most classmates.
Not to ntion the whole grade, even in her own class, she only knows a few nas.
During lunch breaks, Qin Hui often ca to find her to eat together, as for class breaks, Xiao ng mostly stayed at her seat organizing her class notes.
Balancing school and ho, she seed to be used to it.
It was the sa at A University, but at Bath, the pace was quicker, requiring more ti and effort for studies.
Shuangshuang and Huang Huang were still little, ng ng didn’t want the kids to feel like she was always unwilling to spend ti with them... so the ti in transit between classes was basically used for pre-study and review.
After returning ho she would have a proper dinner and take the two kids out for a walk in the evening.
Whenever Yin Shixiu wasn’t busy, he would basically join them.
Soon, this family of four beca familiar faces in the community.
Royal Wharf was actually already a top residential community in London, mostly inhabited by various industry elites.
Unfamiliar with other fields, but those in comrce and politics basically knew Yin Shixiu.
So there were enthusiastic people who greeted them, and whenever his na was ntioned, those hearing it always had a look of being flattered.
Then, Xiao ng and the kids would be thoroughly scrutinized.
As if to say, ah, so this is Arthur Yin’s wife and kids...
Autumn in London carried a unique bleakness, the high-bridged Londoners were all wearing trench coats and hats.
The campus at Bath had piles of fallen leaves, with groups of students on duty helping sweep and burn them.
"Tap tap tap..."
The sound of stepping on fallen leaves was a sound that Xiao ng couldn’t forget for a long ti afterward.
The morning class was at half-past nine, the afternoon class at two.
After lunch, Xiao ng went to the library, returned a book, and borrowed two more.
Sitting alone on a bench by the lawn.
Far away, on another bench, there was a couple passionately kissing, each wearing one earphone, listening to the sa song...
The autumn sun was bright, and such warm sunshine always made her think of first eting Yin Shixiu.
Just that autumn in Beijing is very short, very short...
"Tap tap..."
This place was quite empty, especially during class ti, the approaching footsteps made Xiao ng instinctively turn her head...
A tall and skinny boy wearing thin-frad tal glasses walked towards a bench further away from her.
Su Xiaong had an impression of this boy; Qin Hui had pointed him out and said this boy was the top of class A, a Chinese.
He seed thin to the point of excess, as if the autumn wind could blow his fra away.
When Qin Hui ntioned this person, he jokingly added to Su Xiaong,
"Don’t think you’re the most unsociable one, there’s always soone out there!"
This boy was nad Han Tan, an absolute iceberg, seen during class, vanished afterward.
Not particularly handso, but with hard lines on his face giving off a masculine spirit!
His magnetic voice speaking English beca the topic of frenzy among the girls during break ti.
Because Qin Hui had described him vividly, Xiao ng couldn’t help but look twice, didn’t find he had an extra eye or nose...
Just when she was about to withdraw her gaze, it seed like he noticed, slightly lifted his eyes, shooting a glance over...
Very, very, very unfriendly!!
Xiao ng hurriedly withdrew her gaze, just like a thief caught red-handed!
Just this one look, Xiao ng knew Qin Hui wasn’t exaggerating!
He’s more unsociable than her!
But her unsociability was mainly due to life circumstances, this boy’s was likely due to his personality!
How could it be, she Su Xiaong was soone everyone liked, how could soone look at her with such cold and even slightly disdainful expression...
Actually, the distance was far, Xiao ng didn’t see clearly, but she felt this person emitted a "keep your distance" aura from head to toe!
Xiao ng wasn’t in the sa class as him, despite having an impression of him, she definitely wouldn’t actively try to get to know him.
She sat cross-legged on the bench, flipping through a book on interpreting on her lap, just about to read when a shadow lood over, blocking most of her light.
Looking up—
Xiao ng was startled, her body started to tilt, Han Tan was already in front of her, stepping on leaves without the friction sound of "tap tap"!
The startled person had her eyes wide open, staring straight at him, stuttering out,
"Cla-classmate, is there sothing you need?"
"Are you Su Xiaong?"
"Uh... Yes."
Xiao ng nodded.
The lenses gleaming with white light had a pair of concentrated eyes, slightly narrowed at her, truly creepy.
This description wasn’t an exaggeration, it was just that feeling of being watched by sothing.
Very uncomfortable.
Han Tan’s gaze didn’t linger on Xiao ng but shifted to the book on her lap.
Picked it up casually,
"Confereting Interpreting Explained."
Admittedly, his English pronunciation was truly pleasant!
"Did you say Chinese..."
Han Tan glanced at her, closing the book,
"The last place, reading this book doesn’t seem aningful, I’ll use it first."
He didn’t answer her question, just took her book...
"What?! He took your borrowed book? You just let him go?"
After the weekend, on Monday, Xiao ng told Qin Hui about this, Qin Hui looked at her with a face of disbelief.
Su Xiaong quickly said,
"Have you ever talked to him?!"
"Not yet..."
"So!! You don’t understand!! When he took the book, it felt like it was his!!"
Xiao ng, at that ti, took quite a while to react, once she realized, she scratched the wall furiously!
Qin Hui found her explanation mysterious, not believing it at all.
"You’ll understand once you interact with him yourself! I felt if I shook my head and said ’no,’ he would definitely beat up!"
"..."
Qin Hui blinked, finding her words even more mysterious.
Su Xiaong knew Qin Hui wouldn’t believe her, thinking she probably seed cowardly not daring to speak up, but she wasn’t in a hurry to argue.
Anyway, there’s plenty of ti, once Qin Hui interacts with Han Tan, he’ll understand!
Then after they finished eating, on their way back to the teaching building, they ran into Han Tan.
Xiao ng spotted him from afar and quickly tugged at Qin Hui,
"Here he cos! You think I exaggerated, now, go help get my book back!"
"..."
Qin Hui was actually quite brave, but getting startled again by Su Xiaong...
"I’ll get it... Isn’t he holding your conference interpreting book?"
"Seems like it..."
Qin Hui puffed up his chest and strode over.
Behind him, Su Xiaong muttered, "Don’t get hit..."
Qin Hui vaguely heard, feeling embarrassed for a good while.
Han Tan saw Su Xiaong from afar, being the infamous last place person, hard not to recognize.
As for the woman rushing toward him...
"That’s you! Just because you’re lucky and topped the exam, doesn’t an you can randomly take others’ books! Quickly return the book—"
"Get out of the way!"
"..." So fierce!
Qin Hui’s eyes widened, unable to believe Han Tan was this fierce!
His tone fierce, his gaze fierce.
"You, how can you be so—"
"Vicious" hadn’t even co out when Han Tan snapped again,
"Good dogs don’t block the road, heard of it?"
"..."
Wow! Damn!
