1427 Why Are You Avoiding Him?

Wen Shan placed the tray of food on the table and instinctively peered out the window.

Immediately, she dropped to the floor in a squat. Nalan Chunbo seemed to have spotted her upon lifting his head.

Why was he here?

“Hey, your Papa seems to be looking in our direction.” Le Tian rested her chin on her hand and waved at the young lady who was squatting on the floor.

Wen Shan carefully took her plate of food and dashed to another table with no window beside it.

“Hey!” Le Tian got up hastily to follow Wen Shan.

After Wen Shan disappeared from Nalan Chunbo’s sight, he looked away from the window.

Hiding from somebody was indeed uncomfortable.

“After going through the files yesterday, we found a significant increase in the attendance rate of the professors of the Physics department. Frankly speaking, every department in this college has various problems. If Dean Nalan could lead well and set a good example, I believe that the Physics department would definitely see improvement under your management in days to come,” said the secretary.

Seeing Nalan Chunbo zoning out, the secretary could not help but address the new dean again.

Nalan Chunbo gathered his thoughts and replied humbly, “I came back because of a job opportunity offered by your college, so it is my duty.”

The secretary respected Nalan Chunbo for his humility because capable people nowadays were always egotistical and proud.

“Although University Z cannot beat universities which were famous centuries ago, it is still a top university nationally. Unfortunately, due to the lack of time and the large amount of veterans, we could not handle certain things. Some professors in their sixties or seventies were reemployed due to their capability, but some are…well you know what I mean.”

“Yes I know.” He knew that pride was the issue. “What’s the matter with our Professor Yin, by the way?”

The secretary’s expression shifted briefly and he hesitated before saying, “Him? His father was the sole founder of this college, so you could say that he got a job here through his connections. The old man is almost a hundred years old, so it would not be nice of us to ask him about it,” the secretary sighed.

Meanwhile at the restaurant, Le Tian sat down, facing Wen Shan. “Why are you hiding?”

“Who’s hiding, can’t you see that it is sunny over there?” Wen Shan said, stretching her stiff neck.

Le Tian looked behind to see their previous table which was clearly shady, then turned to look at their new table where the sun shone so brightly it seemed like Wen Shan was trying to warm herself.

Wen Shan said that it was sunny over there?

She didn’t need to have a background in Physics to possess common sense!

“But why is he here at our college? Who is the guy walking beside him? He looks very familiar,” Le Tian said as she ate.

“That is Secretary Yu, the person who will give a short speech whenever the university reopens,” Wen Shan explained.

“No wonder he looks familiar, but why is Nalan Chunbo with him?” Le Tian was getting more and more curious. “Could it be that Nalan Chunbo is the new dean of the Physics department?”

“That’s impossible! Didn’t you see the notice? If is four years older than him!” Wen Shan chewed her food as she thought of reasons why Nalan Chunbo was here.

“Alright.” Le Tian sighed and looked down at her food. After taking a bite, she lifted her head up. “Could he be here to look for you?”

Wen Shan snorted. It was impossible for Nalan Chunbo to come looking for her as she had already annoyed him to the max.

God knows why he was here.
