Chapter 77 (1/2)

Tailing Behind

When Tao Ruoxiang exited the library, she found out it was unexpectedly starting to drizzle again.

Late night, the campus was finally tranquil.

After walking for a short period of time, Tao Ruoxiang suddenly felt somewhat scared because the night seemed to be too quiet.

She was only then aware that previous several times, Qin Lang sent her off to the dormitory so she was never afraid but now that she was going back alone, she couldn’t get rid of the anxiety from her mind.

At this time, Tao Ruoxiang became aware that with Qin Lang besides her, she would feel a lot more sense of security.

But, after returning from the Clear Sky mountain, since that evening, Tao Ruoxiang was always thinking of her relation with Qin Lang. At the Clear Sky mountain peak, Tao Ruoxiang felt the strong affection that Qin Lang had for her and this affection had been put to test in the life or death situation. Even if Tao Ruoxiang was stone hearted, she also felt somewhat moved. What’s more, her intimate actions towards Qin Lang under the influence of the poison made her feel abashed when remembering them now.

However, after returning to the school, Tao Ruoxiang could only remind herself to keep distance from Qin Lang. She was constantly telling herself that she was a teacher and Qin Lang was a student, their ident.i.ties decided there could not arise feelings of man-woman between her and Qin Lang. And today, when she saw Qin Lang and Luo Bin enjoying together, a trace of jealousy and complain appeared in her heart. Thus, today, after she helped Qin Lang make up for the missed lessons, she refused being sent off by Qin Lang.

Now when she thought of it, Tao Ruoxiang clearly felt she had acted somewhat rashly.

Just at this time, a burst of wind moved the gra.s.s besides her, Tao Ruoxiang couldn’t help being frightened.

“Miaowuu! ~”

A stray cat leaped up from the underbrush.

It was a false alarm!

Tao Ruoxiang was unable to refrain from breathing a sigh of relief.

“Aachooo!”

Being attacked by the cold wind and the night rain, Tao Ruoxiang suddenly let out a sneeze.

Did I catch a cold?

Tao Ruoxiang felt the night rain was even colder, her body, at this time, was as weak as her heart. Feeling a twinge in her nose, she actually felt like shedding tears.

Right at this moment, Tao Ruoxiang suddenly felt warmth on her body, a cloth was draped on her shoulders.

“Caught a cold?” Tao Ruoxiang was frightened at first but hearing this voice, she felt calm all of a sudden.

Having gone through life and death crisis with Qin Lang, Tao Ruoxiang felt that having Qin Lang at her side really made her feel safe. This wasn’t only because Qin Lang’s skills were ferocious, the important point was Tao Ruoxiang knew Qin Lang would not even hesitate to risk his life for her sake.

“None of your business!” Tao Ruoxiang coldly humphed, but she immediately felt her words were not proper because this tone sounded like two pa.s.sionate man and woman in anger. Hence, she hurriedly added in her regular tone, “I am all right.”

Qin Lang seemed as if he hadn’t noticed Tao Ruoxiang’s change of tone, he smilingly said: “You are still saying all right when you have already caught a cold.”

“I am not that fragile——aachoo!” She had just spoken, when she once again sneezed.

“Still not caught a cold?” Qin Lang said, “I am sorry, because I asked you to help me make up the missed lessons, you caught a cold.”

“It’s good since you know that.” Tao Ruoxiang coldly humphed.

“That’s right, this is all due to me. Anyway, why didn’t you, teacher Tao, not let me send you back just before?”

“Studying a bit more will be good for you.” Tao Ruoxiang, naturally, would not say the real reason.

“Ah, just for that!” Qin Lang said, “If you aren’t coaching, how can I still be interested in studying!? I even worried about you. In this darkness, you, a beautiful woman, is wandering around at the campus, really makes people worried.”

“Come on, this is the campus, how can there be danger? Moreover, I also have kung fu…….Aachoo!”
