"Is that so?!" Zhen Yu was stunned for a mont.
At this mont, she realized that her private communication with Han Mingyue had indeed been sowhat lacking.
"What is your goal? Can you tell ?"
"Writing! Just like you said! Actually, I’ve been considering whether to pursue it as a future career. Since I finished my first novel, I’ve found myself enjoying writing more and more! My mind is always full of strange things that I want to write down and show to others! You wouldn’t believe how happy I am to see so many people comnting on my novel online!"
Zhen Yu was dumbfounded! Her mouth slightly agape, she suddenly felt as if ’after a long detour, things are getting back on track.’
After organizing her thoughts, Zhen Yu asked again, "So, are you already determined to beco a professional writer?"
She thought Han Mingyue would nod, but instead he shook his head.
"No! I hope my future career can be more lucrative, to provide a better life for my family! But ideally, it shouldn’t conflict with writing." Han Mingyue paused here and then continued, "Since I haven’t yet found a career that maintains this balance, so,"
"Many careers can et your requirents!" Zhen Yu naively interrupted Han Mingyue.
Han Mingyue felt that Zhen Yu was oversimplifying things!
"Many? Like what?!"
"Like...a university professor?" Zhen Yu’s eyes sparkled with admiration.
Han Mingyue silently dragged her away!
"...Can just anyone beco a university professor?"
"Others can’t, but you can!"
Zhen Yu blurted out, revealing her true thoughts.
Since in his prior life Han Mingyue was guaranteed for research, if he had lived until graduation, he surely could have stayed on to teach at the university!
Han Mingyue looked at her strangely, "Why would I be able to?!"
Zhen Yu’s brain worked at high speed, and in less than two seconds, she blurted out a sentence, "Because you’re handso!"
"Xiao Yu!" Han Mingyue gave Zhen Yu an annoyed glance, his face suddenly heating up.
Zhen Yu hurriedly waved her hands dismissively, "Alright, alright! I won’t talk about it! I’ll stop, okay?"
The blushing Han Mingyue: "..."
—
When the two returned to their dorm rooms, it was almost lights-out ti, and Han Mingyue quickly rushed to brush his teeth and wash up!
He had just finished cleaning up and hadn’t even left the Water Room yet when all the rooms in the dormitory building plunged into darkness.
After locking the door to his dorm room, Han Mingyue stood in front of his bed and groped under his pillow to pull out a flashlight.
As soon as the flashlight lit up, Jia Ming, who slept on the bunk below him, asked, "What are you still doing up if you’re not sleeping?"
"Writing a self-critique!" Han Mingyue replied helplessly.
"Hey! I almost forgot about that!" Jia Ming clapped his head, then quickly added, "Knowing you have to write a self-critique, why did you co back so late? Tell ! What were you doing?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another roommate joined in the teasing, "Exactly! Co clean! Were you on a date with a girl?!"
In the darkness, Han Mingyue felt his face suddenly beco extrely hot!
Luckily it was lights out, otherwise he definitely would’ve been caught!
Struggling to compose himself, Han Mingyue steadied his voice and said, "I just went ho for a bit."
"Ugh! So boring!" Both roommates imdiately took it for true, knowing that Han Mingyue’s family had indeed moved to Qi City.
——
Using the light from a flashlight, Han Mingyue spent nearly an hour to finish writing two reflections totaling 3,800 characters. By the ti he went to bed, it was almost eleven o’clock.
But once he lay down, he found himself unusually spirited! Not the slightest bit sleepy!
With his eyes open, staring at the ceiling, he couldn’t see anything in the darkness, but Zhen Yu’s face inexplicably appeared before his eyes!
And at the sa ti, her words echoed in his ears!
"Others can’t, but you can!"
Could he really? That was a university professor, after all!
Maybe... he could try aiming in that direction!!
After all, he knew he was sowhat introverted, so he did incline toward pursuing teaching or research work in the future, which coincidentally aligned exactly with Zhen Yu’s suggestion.
The mont the phrase "a coincidental alignnt" crossed his mind, Han Mingyue unexpectedly burst into laughter in the darkness.
As he spent more ti with her, he increasingly felt a special connection with Zhen Yu!
Sotis, they didn’t even need to articulate their thoughts; a simple look or gesture was enough for them to understand each other’s feelings.
This feeling was really mysterious! But at the sa ti, it was also wonderful...
Suddenly, Han Mingyue raised his right hand and fervently pressed it against his wildly pounding heart! A thought flashed through his mind, "It’s over... now I definitely won’t be able to sleep..."
——
The sa happened to Zhen Yu when she returned to her room! However, the one questioning her was Su Xuan from a Different Dinsion.
Su Xuan: "Why are you so late! I was almost falling asleep waiting for you!"
"Sorry! I got online late today because of so things!"
Su Xuan: "What could possibly be so important that even calligraphy had to take a backseat? Did you go on a date with a lover?"
"...Let’s hurry it up! I must submit this competition entry this weekend!"
Su Xuan: "Yo~ Sister, you’re feeling guilty! Looks like I guessed right! In that case, the little gift I’ve prepared for you will have to wait till I can give it to you!"
"A little gift? Why suddenly give a gift?"
Su Xuan: "No reason! Your work is about to be exhibited, how can you not have a seal! I happen to have so fine stone material on hand, so I thought why not carve a small seal for you!"
"...Thank you!"
Su Xuan: "Hurry and tell your future brother-in-law’s na! First thing tomorrow morning, I will send a piece of Qingtian stone to your brother, and have him carve it as soon as possible!"
"You trouble your brother! His... His surna is Han, Han Mingyue."
Su Xuan: "Just from the na, one can tell he is indeed a celestial figure as radiant as the bright moon itself! Sister, you are lucky! Hee hee..."
"...Alright, stop talking! Co and guide in calligraphy!" Zhen Yu said with flushed cheeks in the room.
Su Xuan: "Sister, you have an extraordinary talent for calligraphy. In such a short ti, you’ve already achieved what took three years of practice! I think you can now try copying texts in a different style."
"Change the style? Which style?"
Su Xuan: "You can switch to copying texts in the cursive script."
"Can I finally write in cursive? Ah..." Zhen Yu let out a long sigh of relief; she really didn’t much like rigidly writing in standard script!
