Capítulo 790: Chapter 263: Now This Is Life_2
He didn’t want Qiao Xi to rush over to Yanbei University and twist his ear in public. The old mothers of Huaxia always loved doing that, relying on blood ties to suppress, never giving their children a shred of saving face.
Turning his head to look at Xia Keke next to him, the girl was bowing her head, her face red, secretly laughing. This gave Qiao Yu a taste of what it felt like to be impotently furious.
“Forget it, let’s go to Huaqing instead! Maybe my mom hasn’t seen Keke in a long ti. She probably went to the market specifically to buy sothing tasty and plans to cook a al herself.”
Qiao Yu mumbled gloomily.
“Hmm… Miss Qiao booked a private room under your na at Class A Restaurant today; it seems like it’s to welco Miss Xia,” Zheng Xiweng ntioned again unnecessarily.
It wasn’t that Zheng Xiweng had a loose tongue.
If anyone saw a young guy looking perfect every day, they’d probably want to see what he looks like when he fails.
After all, only at this ti does Qiao Yu seem like a normal person.
The only one who could probably keep Qiao Yu in check now was Qiao Xi. But Qiao Xi usually didn’t bother with Qiao Yu’s affairs.
This was a rare opportunity.
“Uncle Zheng, I still liked you better when you didn’t talk much when you weren’t familiar with us. Before, I really didn’t notice how talkative you are. It seems from now on, I must give you more opportunities to express your opinions.”
“Hehe…” After a couple of dry laughs, Zheng Xiweng decided to shut up.
After all, if Qiao Yu really wanted to find sothing for him to do, he could keep him busy every day until he couldn’t touch the ground.
If we put it in Qiao Yu’s words, it’s: “One cannot want both ways; either the bench or a person’s enthusiasm has to be cool.”
In the current situation, Zheng Xiweng would prefer to take it easy and let the bench warm up first.
…
“Aunt Qiao, I’m here!”
“Keke, co let Aunt see you, oh my, you’ve gotten prettier again!”
“No, Aunt Qiao!”
“That Qiao Yu, that rascal, is really lucky. How’s it going at school lately? High school must be tough, you’re looking thinner.”
“Mm, actually, I’ve gained two pounds compared to last year.”
“That must be because you’ve grown taller. Take a good rest in Beijing these days. Try to gain it back…”
“Hey… is this that popular drama ‘Secretly Falling in Love with You’?”
“Yeah, it’s pretty good…”
“I heard from classmates that Zhang Lu…”
…
After experiencing what it ans to be overlooked, Qiao Yu listlessly followed the two won into the living room.
The TV was on as usual, and soon the sound of a dostic romantic soap opera drowned out the whispers of the two won.
Qiao Yu didn’t know why Qiao Xi liked watching this boring stuff.
This woman is too lazy to fall in love herself, yet loves to see people romance on TV every day.
Not to ntion the unsolved mathematics problem she’s researching, yet she has ti to watch this nonsense!
As for Xia Keke, she’s even more outrageous…
Speaking of which, isn’t dating in real life better? Discussing TV romances with mom?
Haven’t you learned in political class? Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth!
Just as Qiao Yu’s mind quickly turned in discomfort, Qiao Xi also finally rembered she had a son sitting by her side.
“Qiao Yu, why are you sitting here too? Go pour Keke a glass of water!”
“Why should I? Let tell you, at Yanbei University, it’s always others pouring water for .” Annoyed, Qiao Yu retorted.
“No need, Aunt Qiao, I’ll just pour it myself when I’m thirsty,” Xia Keke hurriedly said.
“Don’t worry about it, Qiao Yu, I’ll count to three! Don’t think you’re so amazing just because you’ve reached your rebellious phase!”
“Go ahead and count, I’ve never been scared into obedience!”
Qiao Yu proudly said, then stood up before Qiao Xi could even open her mouth, heading to the kitchen to find a cup.
Muttering to himself: “I’m not afraid of you, I just got stiff sitting in the car for too long, felt like moving around a bit. Keke, do you like honey in your drink?”
“Oh, yes!”
“Okay!”
…
The date he had planned several tis over was completely disrupted. Before the al, Qiao Yu finally found a chance to privately complain to Qiao Xi.
“Comrade Qiao Xi, weren’t you the one who encouraged to be with Keke? Now that we’re together, you’re starting to ddle, right?”
“How am I ddling? Did I forbid your romance? I just don’t want your hormones to stop secreting!”
Qiao Xi righteously said.
“Then let Keke live with you, how do we date? Who dates under their mom’s nose? Do you want to be a mama’s boy?”
“Hah… How about letting you live together? And follow the sa path I did before? I won’t stop your romance, but besides romance, don’t even think about anything else.”
“No, it’s just…”
“No buts! There’s no interference during public activities in the dayti. At night, Keke stays with , and if you want to chat longer, that’s fine too.”
Qiao Xi decisively said.
Qiao Yu felt he was being underestimated, and this was being cautious of him…
“You’re treating like that guy, am I that kind of person?”
“Enough, I’ve been your age. When you two are alone, really excited, it’s not strange if you decide temporarily not to behave. Otherwise, why are you so upset?”
Qiao Xi glanced at Qiao Yu, speaking disdainfully.
Qiao Yu thought he understood debating, but he was never good at debating with Qiao Xi. Fortunately, being handled by this woman wasn’t embarrassing.
The dinner was lively, in fact, every ti at Class A Restaurant, it was lively. Mainly because Qiao Xi invited Elder Yuan.
Elder Yuan knew Qiao Yu’s girlfriend was here and wanted to give Qiao Yu more face, so he invited several professors from the research center to the al to welco Xia Keke.
In pampering Qiao Yu, Elder Yuan was more aggressive than Qiao Xi and Tian Yan Zhen.
Of course, for these professors, it wasn’t a hard task. Most people wouldn’t even qualify to attend this dinner.
After all, there are very few living Fields dal winners, no more than fifty.
You’d et two at this dinner.
Not to ntion one is a currently trending young Fields dalist in the international academic community.
The dinner’s atmosphere was naturally harmonious, with everyone enjoying themselves. At gatherings of mathematicians, Qiao Yu naturally beca the absolute center, one could even say it turned into a Qiao Yu appreciation event.
But the happiest were obviously not Qiao Yu, but the two most important won beside him.
Especially Xia Keke.
The young girl, yet to learn how to hide her feelings. Hearing soone praise Qiao Yu made her smile radiantly like a blooming flower. Though Qiao Xi was certainly happy as well, at least she smiled more reservedly.
Probably only Qiao Yu felt sowhat underwheld.
After all, according to his original plan, he should be dining with Keke in a private room, which would be much more pleasant than the current bustle.
Though the professors offered all kinds of praise… but when it cos to blowing bullshit, Qiao Yu felt he was better than these professors.
Not to ntion, with his experience, Keke was easily coaxed.
In such a setting for two, the emotional value provided was the highest.
After being bombarded with dry praises from the professors, his own flow of thoughts got disrupted, unsure of what to boast about afterward.
Thus, after finally making it till everyone was full and satisfied, Qiao Yu couldn’t wait to suggest wrapping up.
“Mom, I’m taking Xia Keke for a walk around campus.”
“Alright, but be ho before ten PM.”
“Don’t worry! We won’t get lost!”
…
When only the two of them were left, Xia Keke shed her reserve and her little mouth started chattering nonstop.
“Qiao Yu, you’re simply amazing. Let tell you, on the day you hosted a live stream on DouLe, none of us had class; the teacher played your hosted stream in class.
On Monday’s flag-raising ceremony, the principal praised you fancily for a full half hour. At least ninety percent of our entire grade are your fans!
Oh, before I ca, our Principal Zhou and Principal He from Star City’s Zhong Yi both reached out to , asking when you would have ti to go back to visit the schools in Star City…”
Just listening to this made Qiao Yu feel on cloud nine…
As expected, Xia Keke never let him down. She was so skilled at giving him emotional value.
