Tang Beibei walked into the office and was about to clean it as usual, but Professor Chen stopped her.

“Your Senior Song Kai is also here today. How can I let you clean? You sit and read, let Song Kai do it.”

Tang Beibei held the broom and said with a smile, “It’s okay, this is a small matter. I’ll be done in a while.”

Professor Chen pulled a long face. “If this takes only a while, all the more you should let Song Kai do it. Don’t dilly dally.”

Song Kai rubbed his nose and took Tang Beibei’s broom. He smiled and said, “Will my little Junior just sit down and read? I’ll handle the cleaning.”

Tang Beibei still wanted to refuse but saw Song Kai winking at her. Professor Chen was ordering him around on purpose. If she continued to argue, Professor Chen would get angry.

Tang Beibei didn’t dare make Professor Chen angry, so she quickly gave the broom to Song Kai.

Song Kai cleaned the office efficiently. After washing his hands, he came back to see Professor Chen. Professor Chen was reading Song Kai’s thesis with his reading glasses.

“You’ve been slacking recently. Your thesis is so bad, and there are even typos. Song Kai, you are better than this.”

Song Kai lowered his head. “I’m sorry. 1’11 go back and clean it up.”

Professor Chen snorted and glanced at Tang Beibei, who was reading with her head lowered. He thought that she was sad about Song Kai’s engagement.

He was even harsher to Song Kai now because he was pursuing this girl before, but he just turned around and got engaged to another woman.

A young man’s fickle-mindedness was so ridiculous!

Professor Chen used to be optimistic about Song Kai and Tang Beibei, but now that he had been slapped in the face by reality, he was furious.

“There are so many typos, and the content is not rigorous enough. Go back and redo this properly!”

“Yes, Professor Chen.”

Song Kai didn’t dare to argue and passively accepted the criticism.

Tang Beibei was even more worried about herself when she saw Song Kai so submissive.

Professor Chen had given her a month to read those books, but she hadn’t completed the assignment. Professor Chen would definitely criticize her.

Professor Chen was very disgusted with Song Kai now. He waved his hand and told him to leave quickly.

Song Kai heaved a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

When he was walking out, he saw the girl with her head almost buried under the book and held back his laughter.

When Professor Chen saw Tang Beibei lowering her head as if she didn’t dare to face Song Kai, he became even angrier at Song Kai.

“Tang Beibei, how is the reading assignment going?”

Tang Beibei stood up nervously and said with a trembling voice, “1 haven’t finished reading the books yet. I’m sorry, Professor Chen.”

Professor Chen thought in his heart that Tang Beibei was probably in a bad mood after being dumped. How could she still be in the mood to read?

“It’s okay if you haven’t finished reading yet. If you’re in a bad mood or too tired, you can rest for a few days. It’s not good to rush through the books because you won’t be able to absorb what you read.”

Tang Beibei was stunned. Did Professor Chen just let her off?

The surprise came too suddenly. She quickly thanked him. “Professor Chen, don’t worry. I’ll definitely work hard to finish my reading assignment.”

Seeing her timid but cute reaction, Professor Chen thought that she was a sincere and sensible girl.

That brat, Song Kai, actually didn’t cherish her. He would regret it sooner or later!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Tang Beibei quickly opened the door and saw Xin Wei, another student of Professor Chen.

Xin Wei walked in and greeted him with a smile, “Hello, Professor Chen. Senior Tang Beibei, you’re here too. What a coincidence. I have a question for Professor Chen.”

Professor Chen saw Xin Wei and a hint of impatience flashed across his eyes. He put on his reading glasses and ignored Xin Wei.

Instead, he asked Tang Beibei, “You haven’t been to the office lately. Has something happened?”

Tang Beibei was about to answer when Xin Wei spoke first. “Senior Tang Beibei didn’t have time to come to the office because she’s busy dating, right?” “Tang Beibei, are you in a relationship?” Professor Chen asked.

Tang Beibei waved her hand. “No, I’m not.”

Xin Wei interrupted her, “But I always see a nice car drop you off and pick you up from school. Isn’t that handsome man your boyfriend?”

Tang Beibei was stunned for a few seconds. Which handsome man?

She was probably referring to Song Zhou.

“He’s not my boyfriend. He’s just a driver. Professor Chen, I joined a dance troupe recently and practice dancing every day. I’m not in a relationship.”

Professor Chen had told her before that university students should not think about dating all day. They should focus on their studies. She did not want Professor Chen to misunderstand that she was in a relationship and it affected her studies.

“A dance troupe?”

Professor Chen removed his glasses, slightly curious.

Tang Beibei explained awkwardly, “It’s a dance troupe organized by a classmate of mine. Professor Chen, I’m not in a relationship.”

Professor Chen believed her. This girl was pretty and had a good personality. He had seen a few young men pursue her and had advised her to focus on her studies and not be distracted by love.

“There must be balance between study and play too. It’s also good to dance when you’re tired of studying. If you’re busy, change your twice-a-week shift to once-a-week.”

“Thank you for your support, Professor Chen, but coming once-a-week is not enough to keep your office clean…”

“Don’t worry about that. There are many people who can clean my office. Xin Wei, come and clean the office twice a week from now on.”

Xin Wei was a little unhappy. “Why me?”

She came here so that Professor Chen could take care of her and pave the way to her thesis and postgraduate studies. She didn’t come here to be a coolie.

“Because you’re my student. You’re still in your first year so there would be things that you don’t understand even if I tell you. Start with simple tasks first.”

Professor Chen looked at her with disdain.

This Xin Wei always came with Tang Beibei and was always a few minutes late. She was obviously waiting for Tang Beibei to finish cleaning the office.

Every time they came to the office, Tang Beibei would either help him tidy up his things or do something within her power while Xin Wei would sit by the side and play with her phone. She didn’t even bring a single book. If there was anything she had to do, she would beg Tang Beibei to do it.

When he asked about Tang Beibei just now, Xin Wei also interrupted them rudely and mocked Tang Beibei.

If the principal hadn’t asked, he wouldn’t have taken such an impolite, uncultured, and incompetent spoiled young lady as his mentee.

Xin Wei tried to defend herself, “Professor Chen, I’m quite busy too. Senior Tang Beibei is busy with dance but that’s her personal matter. How can she not come and help you because of her personal matter? Senior Tang Beibei, you should find time to come here twice a week.”

Tang Beibei frowned. “It’s not a problem for me to come here twice a week, but Junior Xin Wei, if you’re really busy, you don’t have to come to Professor Chen’s office anymore. You can’t help even when you are here. Being here is just a waste of your time.”

Professor Chen looked at Tang Beibei in surprise. He also wanted to say the same thing.

However, he had promised the principal that he would mentor Xin Wei and he couldn’t chase her away.

Now that Tang Beibei had said it for him, he felt quite happy. As expected of his student, she was so sensible!

Xin Wei was furious when she heard that she was being chased away.

“Tang Beibei, you’re just a year ahead of me. What right do you have to tell me not to come? I called you Senior because I give you face.. Don’t think that you are better than me!”
