Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 499 - 375: Why So Nervous? Feeling Guilty?
It’s half past nine, and Xiao Meng received Yin Shixiu’s reply just halfway through her class.
Yeah, just got off the plane, I’ll come after changing my clothes. Make sure you remember how to dance your dance, I’ll check later.
"..."
"I’m done for..."
Su Xiaomeng stared at the reply Yin Shixiu sent on her phone screen, mumbling to herself...
However, the classroom was quiet at the moment, with Dick’s focused eyes scanning the students sitting below.
"Yes, you’re done for."
Dick suddenly said calmly in Chinese.
This made the students who were preparing their English materials for translation into Chinese, Japanese, and German look up involuntarily...
Little Mengxin was startled, looking up to find Dick already standing in front of her.
Now she was truly done for...
With despair in her heart, Xiao Meng quickly looked up and smiled at him, shamelessly greeting him.
"Heh heh..."
"Heh heh!"
Unexpectedly, Dick also returned a laugh, the sound was similar, but his tone felt much colder.
"It looks like you’re well prepared. Go ahead and translate."
Little Mengxin’s heart pounded madly. She had been preparing seriously, but she was interrupted by Yin Shixiu’s reply.
Now that Dick picked her, she could only brace herself and start translating...
Translating into Chinese was quite smooth for Xiao Meng, but Japanese and German were indeed a challenge.
Japanese and German were subjects Xiao Meng decided to learn when she chose to study in Bath, and her foundation wasn’t solid.
So, she always carried several thick dictionaries in her backpack.
Dick didn’t approve of using electronic dictionaries. Once, Xiao Meng brought an electronic dictionary, and Dick immediately "complained," saying something like...
"No brains and no strength?"
Xiao Meng had no choice but to carry herself like a snail every day, a small body, heavy... Dreams! Yes, not a shell, but dreams!
While translating Japanese, she stumbled a bit, not paying much attention to grammar and word choice, she managed to get it done.
But when it came to German...
"Hehe..."
Xiao Meng smiled at Dick and suddenly said, "Teacher, just when I was translating into German, I felt like I was done for, and sure enough! Look..."
Dick glanced at Su Xiaomeng,
"If you put the energy you have for dancing into studying, maybe you wouldn’t be done for!"
As soon as Dick said this, the previously quiet classroom had a brief commotion.
This was the intentional or unintentional reminder of the explosive post on the school forum last night!
Su Xiaomeng nodded quickly,
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Dick didn’t target her further and called someone else to continue translating.
Little Meng wasn’t completely unmotivated; what did it mean to put the energy of dancing into studying and not be done for? That would be truly done for, wouldn’t it...
But if she put the energy she has for studying into dancing... perhaps she could become a dancer!
Xiao Meng had had such dreams before, but because the path to becoming a dancer was too tough, she abandoned it early.
Having married Yin Shixiu... she still had to strive hard to achieve something.
Knowing this earlier, she would have worked hard to learn dance at fifteen or sixteen.
The morning classes were full, and once finished, it was lunch time, but Xiao Meng ate absent-mindedly.
Even though Qin Hui had met Yin Shixiu once, she didn’t know Yin Shixiu was the president of Yin Group.
Yin Shixiu himself rarely appeared in the domestic media, the name of Yin Group was louder than his own.
But in foreign media, Yin Shixiu appeared more often.
Xiao Meng didn’t understand this logic, but when she privately asked Yin Shixiu, he did give an answer, a rather arrogant answer.
"Are international dealings comparable to domestic ones?"
Therefore, ordinary people who didn’t follow foreign business media news would have only a vague idea of who Yin Shixiu was!
As for the name, everyone knew it!
As for what he looked like, it required people to deliberately search and pay attention.
Qin Hui was sitting opposite Su Xiaomeng at this moment, experiencing the gaze from others in the canteen with her.
Seeing Su Xiaomeng eating listlessly, Qin Hui relaxed a bit, thinking this was a normal human reaction. Where is the person being discussed by schoolmates who can remain indifferent?
Little did she know, Xiao Meng was eating listlessly, just repeatedly chewing over what her husband’s text message meant?
She could adjust her mindset and prepare adequately to respond.
"Xiao Meng... your pasta is cold."
Qin Hui pointed to the plate of pasta that had already turned mushy in front of Xiao Meng and reminded her.
Xiao Meng put down the fork,
"Have you finished eating? If you have, let’s go."
Qin Hui panicked, regretting the reminder, worrying if Xiao Meng thought she was rushing her?
"You eat, you eat."
"Ah... I can’t eat anymore."
Xiao Meng glanced at Qin Hui’s plate, which was basically empty, picked up her own plate, and got up to leave.
Qin Hui’s heart was anxious.
She felt Su Xiaomeng, after being openly and subtly ridiculed all morning, was finally discouraged, unable to maintain the composure she had when speaking with her in the morning.
Thinking it over, it was still her fault...
Following behind Xiao Meng, she didn’t dare to say anything.
Xiao Meng seemed to be walking to more secluded areas, turning left and right, Qin Hui didn’t know where she was headed, but both were getting closer to the back gate of the school, farther from the main teaching area.
The university was built on a mountain, and once outside the school, it was even more desolate.
At noon, near the school’s back gate, besides a shaded path and large lawns, there was basically no one.
Qin Hui thought, Xiao Meng surely felt really bad now, not wanting to see people at all!
Thinking this, she continued to silently accompany her on the walk.
Xiao Meng hadn’t noticed Qin Hui’s little calculations; the lecture at three meant Yin Shixiu had to arrive at least half an hour early, right?
Hmm.....
What does it mean to check later?
Does it mean she really has to dance for him? Once danced, will the matter be considered resolved?
No way... He’s the big boss, and a cunning one, how could he let the little monster go easily...
But what does ’check’ mean, exactly?
"Ah! So annoying! What difference does it make if I dance again! Men are so petty, such a small issue making people nervous, I don’t believe he’d hit me, really!"
Probably finding it troubling to guess her husband’s intentions, Su Xiaomeng suddenly stopped walking, and grumbled in annoyance!
"Dancing doesn’t necessarily mean anything, and I won’t hit you..."
"..."
Su Xiaomeng’s spine, that connected head to tailbone, suddenly stiffened.
Upon hearing the voice, her heart froze.
Qin Hui didn’t mean to alert her.
She was following Su Xiaomeng just fine, who’d have thought someone would walk over from the back gate, not completely silent after all, since she heard footsteps before noticing Yin Shixiu.
But Su Xiaomeng was too deep in her own thoughts, beyond hearing, she saw nothing even in her peripheral vision.
Although having met him once, the appearance of Yin Shixiu, such a man, is indeed unforgettable.
Qin Hui remembered him, but didn’t understand why he appeared here, though a flash of realization brought some speculation!
Su Xiaomeng is a married woman, and yesterday’s post on the school forum was seen by her husband...
She wanted to call Su Xiaomeng, but Yin Shixiu had already walked over, motioning for her to stay silent.
Qin Hui thought, a couple getting together, certainly none of her business, turned to leave, unexpectedly... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Su Xiaomeng, what are you up to here?
Why not just murmur any discomfort to yourself, why shout so indignantly!
A place of trouble, shouldn’t linger long.
Qin Hui did not hesitate anymore, turned and slipped away without saying anything.
"But why are you nervous, it seems... there’s guilt in your heart."
Su Xiaomeng slowly turned around, still with that stiff spine, hearing Yin Shixiu speak gently... very... eerily.
