Stop, Wang Tao stopped his thoughts in time. He was annoyed and felt despicable. Just a moment ago, he was righteous and eloquent at school criticizing Wu Song. And now, what was he thinking?

The "they" in Wang Tao’s mind undoubtedly referred to Ming Han and Han Bin.

As for "could they be...," he abruptly stopped the thought and didn’t continue. It’s not hard to guess what he didn’t want to think about.

...

After registering Min Rui, Kang Li’s family of four headed to Shuimu University.

"Mom, Ming Han and I will clean here, we won’t follow you and dad."

The two-story building previously assigned to Luo Yanqing by the university remained unchanged. The university usually arranged for someone to clean the house periodically, so it stayed just the same as when Kang Li and Luo Yanqing moved in back in the day.

As they opened the living room door, the sofa, furniture, and household appliances inside were still covered tightly with white cloth. Kang Li said, "Okay, we will rely on our Ruirui and Hanhan!"

Her eyes gleaming with a smile, she said to Min Rui, "Take your time, no rush. Your dad and I will be back soon to help you."

Before Min Rui could respond, a young voice came from the living room door, "Mom, mom, Xiao En is here to see you!" Indeed, this young voice belonged to Loh En.

The little guy was not yet eight years old but already looked like a young lad.

Fair and clean, standing straight like a little poplar.

"Great-grandma!"

Looking up at Old Lady Li, Loh En’s eyes were filled with accusations of "Don’t tattle on me to mom!" Old Lady Li understood the meaning in his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh, "Okay, okay, great-grandma knows. Our En wants to save face. Great-grandma won’t say bad things about you to your mom!"

Luo Yanqing chatted briefly with Elder Loh on the side and then called Kang Li to complete the onboarding process.

...

Time passed quickly, half a month into the new semester.

This day, at Shuimu University.

"Good morning, Professor Kang!"

"Good morning."

"Good morning, teacher!"

"Yes, good morning, students."

Kang Li smiled and nodded towards the students greeting her.

Although she had only been teaching for half a month without counting weekends or days without classes, Kang Li had effectively been teaching at Shuimu University for six days, with her classes three days a week.

Yet, students particularly enjoyed her classes. Especially knowing Kang Li taught elective courses, almost all students scrambled to get into her classroom, and they needed good luck to secure a seat over other students.

And just like Kang Li’s full classes, the same scenario occurred in Luo Yanqing’s classroom.

It’s fair to say that no matter whether Kang Li or Luo Yanqing was teaching, they both made other professors at the university envious.

Students not only scrambled to attend their classes, but the classroom discipline was excellent, with each student listening more attentively than the next.

They actively answered questions, took notes meticulously, and as instructors, who wouldn’t want such students?

Still, Kang Li found it quite troubling.

So did Luo Yanqing.

After all, a class might feel long or short, and students standing outside the classroom doors and windows and in the corridors seemed too strenuous in Kang Li’s eyes.

But not only were the seats fully occupied inside the classroom, but even in the corridors and at the back of the classroom, students brought mini stools to sit on and listen to the lectures. Kang Li tried persuading them, as did Luo Yanqing, but to no avail.

Instead, the students attending were all cheerful and claimed the lectures were so enjoyable, they didn’t feel tired at all.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

As the class bell rang, students arrived with smiles, especially those who managed to secure a seat, smiled particularly joyfully and proudly.

"I’m so happy today, I actually managed to get into Professor Kang’s class!"

Suddenly, a female student sitting behind the two talking girls said, "I have some gossip. Do you want to hear it?"

"Quickly."

"Spit it out, no teasing!"

The student lowered her voice, "They say Professor Luo and Professor Kang are a couple!"

"..."

"Are you sure?"

"Oh, it’s just hearsay, whether true or not, I’m not sure. But with Professor Luo’s looks and Professor Kang’s looks, I think the odds of them being a couple are high!"

"Professor Luo looks like he’s in his twenties, and Professor Kang looks even younger. I feel they’re not even my age."

"Time never fails beautiful people!"

"I shouldn’t say this, but that Professor Luo is privately referred to as ’Beauty Luo’ by the senior girls in their fourth year!"

Suddenly, another female voice joined in, "Professor Kang and Professor Luo are indeed a couple. I saw them walking together on the registration day, and when Professor Kang was giving her first lecture, I saw Professor Luo sitting in the classroom, listening attentively!

Also, after Professor Kang finished her lecture, as they left the teaching building, Professor Luo assisted with carrying Professor Kang’s teaching materials. The two walking together looked like a divine couple!"

"I must say, Professor Kang and Professor Luo outshine movie actors and those Hong Kong and Taiwanese stars, and their temperament is superb!"

"Lower your voice, Professor Kang is just outside the classroom door!"

...

As Kang Li stepped into the classroom, instantly, the room became quiet enough to hear a pin drop, as everyone sat upright and stared at the beige figure walking up to the podium.

"Good morning, everyone!"

Kang Li placed her textbook and lesson plan on the lecture table, her bright and gentle eyes filled with laughter as she greeted the students.

"Good morning, teacher!"

Like in previous classes, Kang Li did not take attendance—not because she didn’t want to, but due to the overwhelming attendance, there was no need to worry about student absenteeism.

Students taking her class felt both excited and nervous.

Excited, because Kang Li was truly amazing, knowledgeable, and lively in her lectures, never running over time. Securing a spot in her class was akin to the joy of receiving the university acceptance letter back then; Nervous, because they feared not getting a seat, having to listen from the corridors outside, hence potentially mistaken by their dear and beloved Professor Kang for not attending class.

Regarding the overwhelming class attendance situation, Kang Li had suggested to the school authorities to consider providing a larger classroom for her lectures, to prevent students from inconveniences standing outside.

The school is coordinating in various ways.

After all, the university doesn’t consist of just one department, and a department doesn’t have only one grade level, so arranging a classroom for Kang Li’s lectures requires time.
