Chapter 14: The Boy’s Girlfriend is Really Beautiful
As the conversation went on, it naturally led to a few greetings with Cu.
Seeing Cu being pulled aside by his mother for a whisper, Chen Yuan quickly stopped her.
He couldn’t let Cu spill the beans. Even though his mother wouldn’t believe it if she did, she would probably think that Cu was a bit off in the head.
“Okay, Mom, we’re leaving,” Chen Yuan said, immediately grabbing Cu’s hand and rushing out the door.
“Goodbye, Auntie and Uncle.”
Even after they stepped out, Cu’s polite voice still came from outside the door.
“Ah, goodbye,” Chen Mother replied, instantly beaming, “Look, she’s so well-mannered.”
Still greeting them after stepping outside.
Then she smiled as she walked to the door, watching Chen Yuan pull Cu gradually fading from sight.
“Seems like they can get close, looks like my son and that girl have a pretty good relationship,” Chen Mother murmured quietly, nodding in satisfaction.
“Of course! That girl looks like she could only fit that little brat in her eyes!” Chen Jianye suddenly appeared beside Chen Mother.
“Oh, you scared me!” Chen Mother said angrily, giving him a couple of light slaps. “So you mean that girl likes our son?”
“Pretty much!” Chen Jianye said confidently.
“Oh, that’s great! I really like this girl, much better than what’s-her-name from before…”
“Yu Enqi.”
“Right, that girl doesn’t quite cut it. She seems well-behaved at first glance, but you can tell her temperament is a bit aggressive. Our son definitely wouldn’t be able to handle her…”
When talking about Yu Enqi, Chen Mother pouted and then continued about Cu, “This girl is much better. She’s not only good-looking but also has a great demeanor. At first glance, she seems like someone who isn’t easily approachable. Even at such a young age, she has a kind of… what do you call it… aura.”
“Queen aura, right?”
“Yes, yes, yes, Queen aura. I could feel an indescribable sensation when I made eye contact with her, a bit of authority, but when actually interacting, she speaks so sweetly. She’s nothing like that Yu…”
“Yu Enqi, how can you never remember this name…” Chen Jianye complained.
“I can’t remember it. If I don’t like it, I won’t remember it. Anyway, she’s definitely not like the kind of person who could evoke those kinds of feelings. This girl’s eyes, tsk, pure as water. Most importantly, when she’s around our son, he acts very normal and casual, unlike with Yu, where he always had to watch her face.”
“Does that mean we should just call her Yu if you can’t remember?” Chen Jianye seized the loophole.
“Tsk, you old thing, three days without beating you makes you want to climb the roof, huh?” Chen Mother used her famous technique from over twenty years to pinch his ear!
“Oh no, wrong, wrong, wrong.”
…
Chen Yuan held Cu’s hand and walked a good distance before finally letting go.
Cu had been fixated on Chen Yuan’s hand holding hers, her heart racing the whole time.
The teacher is holding my hand…
Actually, back in the Otherworld, although Chen Yuan was her teacher, he was just a 21-year-old boy, and Cu was only 16 at the time.
Now, many years later, Chen Yuan is still 21, and Cu has already turned 20.
Cu had never been seen as a worthy candidate for the throne, so she had always been overlooked.
Chen Yuan’s appearance helped her step by step to the position of queen, taking care of her and teaching her. For a princess who had been neglected, it was like a beam of light in her life.
However, the love of a young girl remains buried deep inside her heart. She knows that if she were to be together with her teacher, the blame from everyone in the country for their unworthy actions would be unbearable…
They would never allow the holy Majesty the Queen in their hearts to do something that shames everyone…
Even as queen, she ultimately has no control over her own destiny.
But… now that I’ve come to my teacher’s world… can I…
“Let’s go eat first… Umm… I remember there was a place I went to before…” Chen Yuan thought for a moment, recalling a delicious barbecue place he had taken Yu Enqi to before.
When he was with Yu Enqi, he had to plan out the entire date’s locations, which certainly included meals.
But that barbecue place was over at University Town, close to the school.
It’s a bit far, but taking a taxi is fine as University Town is located between the school and the city center; it won’t take more than half an hour.
Of course, if he’s taking her out to eat, he wants to take her to a good place.
He also needed to buy her some daily necessities and bring her to his place…
Thinking that, Chen Yuan explained to her, “Barbecue, you’re going to love it.”
“Okay.” Cu smiled slightly.
Of course, she would love it, as long as she was with her teacher…
The two of them hailed a cab by the roadside.
The taxi driver was quite chatty.
Upon seeing Cu getting into the car, he couldn’t help but take a couple more glances, confirming that he wasn’t imagining things.
Then he admired the boy’s girlfriend, thinking she was beautiful enough to be a star.
“Are you two from Jiang University of Science?” the taxi driver asked.
“Yeah, that’s right,” Chen Yuan replied casually.
Cu held onto Chen Yuan’s clothes with her right hand and looked outside, amazed by this wonderful experience.
This was the first time she had ridden in something like this since coming to this world.
This thing, like an iron shell, was surprisingly fast and felt really nice to ride in.
“Wow, if my little brat can get into Jiang University of Science, that would be a real blessing,” the taxi driver said enviously.
“Haha, it’s not that impressive…” Chen Yuan laughed awkwardly, recalling that he had only chosen Jiang University of Science because of Yu Enqi…
While speaking, Chen Yuan kept an eye on Cu beside him.
He then stopped her as Cu leaned her head toward the window.
He knew…
Cu pulled her head back shyly after being stopped, casting a quick glance at Chen Yuan before sitting properly again.
Although she was very poised and well-behaved, knowing not to cause trouble for Chen Yuan, she couldn’t help but feel curious about new things, something Chen Yuan had already witnessed back in the Otherworld.
The most memorable time was when she blinked her beautiful eyes and asked him what the icy and fiery duality was…
Could she learn…
Even though I am ice-type, I can also use some fire-type magic. Can I practice the icy and fiery duality, teacher?
Chen Yuan: …
Don’t say such strange things so seriously…
Did this girl hear something odd from somewhere again?!
So, in front of him, this girl was just like a little girl, no different.
“Ah, young man, you’re so humble. Look at you, with such a beautiful girlfriend. If my kid could find such a beautiful girl, I could laugh in my sleep!”
“Huh?!”
“Just kidding.”
After glancing at Cu, Chen Yuan hurriedly explained.
Upon hearing that word, Cu shyly released her grip on Chen Yuan’s clothes…
