The Scheming Ex-Husband's Courtship-Chapter 588 - 512 Luo Shangqing Finale

Chapter 588: Chapter 512 Luo Shangqing Finale
Side Story 1: Petty Professor Luo
The day after the final exams ended, Mu Chenxi was suddenly confessed to.
The method of confession was quite sensational; someone used the school’s public address system. At that moment, the playground was crowded, and soon a male voice reciting a love poem drifted through the air. With its melodious tone, everyone was listening intently.
"This method of confession is too bold, isn’t it? I wonder how much bribery it took to get access to the broadcast room." Xinyu shaded her eyes from the sun, sweat dripping from her nose, "Quan Jin, it can’t be another one of your admirers, can it? The last one who confessed over the loudspeaker had to quit school halfway to take over his family business, right? It’s like they’re following one after another."
Quan Jin chuckled about how excited Gao Xing was, constantly trying to please her.
Mu Chenxi awkwardly tugged at the corner of her mouth; she still remembered Gao Xing. Whenever they went to the beach for a barbecue together, he always handed her the cooked food first and liked to sit next to her and chat during spare time.
After coming back from the beach, she scorned the old-fashioned method of confession, yet Mu Chenxi was all ears eagerly, until the guy finally took a deep breath and shouted: "Class Three Nursing, Mu Chenxi, be my girlfriend."
Mu Chenxi was immediately dumbfounded, followed by the mischievous laughter of Quan Jin and Xinyu.
"Oh my, Old Four, why did it turn out to be you?" Xinyu began to analyze logically, "Listening to the voice, it seems like it’s Gao Xing from Li Xiaoming’s dormitory. He looks pretty good. Last time when we went out with Li Xiaoming’s dorm, she always saw Gao Xing in class, sometimes even sitting behind her.
She thought it was just a coincidence, but now it seems it was not just that; he must have been planning this for a long time.
Mu Chenxi is now somewhat a celebrity in the medical college, even being Professor Luo’s assistant to help him research new topics. Sometimes, when walking in the streets, people from other grades would greet her with a smile.
Therefore, this confession immediately caused a sensation, and naturally many on the playground knew her, all turning their heads to look.
Mu Chenxi quickly lowered her head, covered her face with her collar, and rushed off with Quan Jin and Xinyu.
"This Gao Xing, really overestimating himself. He surely doesn’t know your boyfriend is Professor Luo." Xinyu caught up quickly, "Even if he shouts to the whole world, it won’t matter."
Mu Chenxi felt secretly relieved, thankful that Luo Shangqing did not hear it, otherwise with his pettiness, he definitely would have stirred up something. Thinking this, she looked up, only to see a familiar figure standing not far away by the flowerbed with two other teachers. He was wearing a white T-shirt, casually placing one hand in his trousers pocket. His simple fresh attire made the flowers and grass behind him dim in comparison.
Suddenly, a wave of despair hit her as Luo Shangqing had already lifted his eyes and looked over. Those deep black eyes looked calm and tranquil, but Mu Chenxi knew such an expression from him actually signified a storm brewing.
Not daring to linger any longer, Mu Chenxi quickly pulled the other two and ran.
Although Mu Chenxi was innocent, she still felt uneasy all day. She and Li Xiaoming were just friends, but she was now also listed in his suspicions. With Gao Xing announcing everything through the loudspeaker, she really couldn’t clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
Before dinner, everything was calm, which allowed Mu Chenxi to quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Perhaps Professor Luo wasn’t paying full attention at the time and didn’t hear the broadcast.
After dinner, Mu Chenxi went to Luo Shangqing’s private laboratory to check the experiment materials and was wondering why Luo Shangqing hadn’t shown up when she saw a note pressed under a glass vessel, the handwriting bold and forceful: "Summarize the experimental data, I need it by tomorrow."
Summing up days of data was no small task, Mu Chenxi didn’t dare to delay and started preparing immediately.
Busy till the lab was about to turn off the lights, she only finished half of the task, the rest had to be taken back to the dorm.
Returning to the dorm meant passing the playground. It was dark and unexpectedly, someone was running there. Mu Chenxi found it odd when that person had already run up to her, seemingly surprised, then joyfully shouted: "Mu Chenxi, it’s me, Gao Xing."
Seeing a sweaty Gao Xing, Mu Chenxi smiled awkwardly, "You’re running in the middle of the night for fitness?"
"Ah, don’t mention it, today in Professor Luo’s class, I messed up an experiment and was punished with running twenty laps tonight."
