Chapter 107 Li Long Fei, Li Yufei? (2/2)
”Err …” Mr. Chen was stunned. In his entire life, he had never got a satisfying answer to this question. He opened his mouth and was unable to say anything. He looked sideways at his granddaughter for help.
Seeing that, Wen hurried over to advise her: ”Grandma, you-”
”Don't say anything!” The old lady was probably still angered and did not allow Wen to say anything. ”How come you help others? Did you forget that who cooked food and served you dessert for you when you were little?”
Hearing that, Wen lowered her head in embarrassment: ”It's you …”
Hao Ning looked at the mess in the room, feeling helpless and happy. People used to say that old couples would have less anger, but this couple was so much like gunpowder, which would explode when lit. He now understood why little Wen told them to get prepared to persuade a fight.
After thinking about it, he realized that he was the ”safest” one in the room, so he quickly said to Long Fei: ”Long Fei, why aren't you helping Teacher Ren to sit down?”
”Eh? Oh!” Long Fei immediately smiled and helped the old lady to sit down, and then took the initiative to get a cup of water. As he was getting the water, his fingers lightly trembled, and Hao Ning knew that Long Fei had done something to the water. He passed the water to the old lady and said, ”Teacher Ren, drink some water, I can see that the corner of your lips is dry.”
”Ok, alright…” the old lady took the water from Long Fei, and after drinking a mouthful, a smile slowly appeared on her face. She looked at Long Fei and said, ”My good student is still the most considerate of me, which is totally different from some people,” she said as she glanced at Mr. Chen from the corner of her eyes, ”He doesn't understand anything!”
”I —” Just as Mr. Chen was about to argue, Liu Shuai and Wen quickly held him down and get him a cup of water, ”Teacher Chen, please drink water.”
The old lady saw that Mr. Chen did not seem to be convinced, so she put her hands on her waists and glared at Mr. Chen, ”You still have problems with that?” Mr. Chen was speechless once again.
”Teacher Ren,” Hao Ning immediately changed the topic, smiling as he said to the old lady, ”You said that Long Fei —”
”Yufei — —” Long Fei hurriedly corrected as he gave Hao Ning a meaningful glance.
Although Hao Ning did not understand, he changed his words based on the situation, ”Yufei is your favorite disciple. As his colleagues, we didn't even know! Tell us, was Yufei really that outstanding back then? ”
Hearing that, the old lady looked at Long Fei benevolently, as if she had thought back to her memories.
Long Fei had a face full of satisfaction, but just as he was about to speak, he saw a glare from Hao Ning. Since the old lady was standing at a different angle, she did not see Hao Ning's expression, so Long Fei immediately shut his mouth up and did not speak anymore.
Hao Ning looked at the old lady and continued to ask softly, ”Teacher Ren, isn't it? Tell us about it? ”
”Of course.” The old lady looked at Long Fei proudly, as she gently caressed the edge of the table while reminiscing, ”Yufei has been outstanding ever since he entered Qingbei University. He never skipped classes and was extremely serious in his classes. He was even asked by others who skipped class to help them for signing in, but later on, no one came to ask for him.”
”What? Teacher Ren, Why did that happen?”Hao Ning already knew the answer, but he was sure that the old lady's anger would disappear when he let her speak her proud.
”Silly child,” As expected, the old lady also looked at Hao Ning lovingly, ”Because his attitude towards learning was especially good, he was always answering questions. After class, he would also discuss with the teacher so that all the teachers knew him very well. So how could he help others to sign in when the teacher called out other names?”
”Oh, so that's how it is,” Hao Ning hurriedly laughed and struck Long Fei, ”Long Fei, I didn't know that you were such an obedient and good student.”
Long Fei just smiled and did not reply.
”This wasn't enough for him to be considered as a good student,” The old lady continued with a smile, ”In every exam, Yu Fei always ranked first in the department, and later he even studied Ph.D. after he got his Master degree and became my Ph.D. student. I remember back then, every time I went to the research department, Yu Fei would seriously do his research, your undergraduate dissertation, master thesis and some works done during that time were still said to be very creative even nowadays.”
”Hehe,” Long Fei laughed and scratched his head, smiling at Hao Ning and Liu Shuai complacently. Initially, Liu Shuai doubted about Long Fei's ”Doctor” degree, but now, he could only admire him.
It was just that Hao Ning felt that something was so strange, but about what it actually was, he couldn't recall a thing immediately. Recently, there had been more and more of these situations, the more he thought, the more he couldn't think of it. Therefore, Hao Ning rather gave up thinking.
