"Teacher, I seem to have messed up." Kasef sat by the window with a melancholy look on his face, holding his head and looking at his teacher.
His teacher snorted: "You know all this, so you're not stupid."
"But I really don't want to be like my parents, spending the rest of my life with a woman I don't understand and have no love for." Kaisef's olive-green eyes blinked gently, and he frowned in distress.
"But you have messed everything up now." His teacher poked his head out from behind the thick books and glared at him.
"Then what else can I do now?" Kaisef spread his hands.
"Now that Miss Anna is getting married to Sheriff Dou from the Republic of China, my parents won't allow me to go to class with you for this reason." Kaisef kept grabbing his blond hair until it got messy.
It must be extremely messy.
The old professor was so angry that he trembled all over and scolded him angrily: "You really haven't thought about your parents at all. If you continue like this, all your parents' efforts for so many years will be in vain!"
"I..." Kai Shufu wanted to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth angrily.
The old professor sighed: "Not only are you doing bad things to your parents, you will also cause death for Miss Chen."
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..." Kaisef pulled his hair angrily.
"Everything you say now is in vain. You should find a way to remedy the situation instead of hiding from me to avoid the facts!" The old professor slapped the table hard, and his gray beard trembled again and again with his movements.
Kessef covered his face in pain, obviously unwilling to face all this.
"Listen, there is no time for you to think too much now. If you are late for a second, you may have an impact on the situation." The old professor frowned and looked at Kasef sternly. This apprentice of his is good at everything.
He is very accomplished in literature and art, but it is a pity that he knows nothing about judging the situation.
Kasef stopped what he was doing and gasped for air.
Suddenly, he jumped up and startled the old professor.
Kasef ran out.
"What are you doing?" the old professor shouted, fearing that his student would do something stupid.
"I'm going to find Miss Chen to apologize!" Kasef loudly answered the old professor's inquiry and ran outside.
At this moment, the phone above the fireplace was ringing loudly.
"Hello?" Chen Jinjun picked up the phone and held his breath.
"It's me." Shao Peichen's somewhat old voice came from the other end of the phone.
"You should have seen the newspaper, right."
"Yes." Chen Jinjun just pursed her lips. Even though she had guessed what Shao Peichen was going to say, she still couldn't help but feel nervous.
Chen Jinjun heard Shao Peichen's vague sigh through the receiver: "For now, we can't touch him."
There was no response from the phone, and it fell into silence.
"What's going on?" Chen Jinjun's voice was exceptionally calm, but only she knew how panicked she was.
It's like a crucial opportunity was missed.
"I couldn't tell you clearly on the phone."
Chen Jinjun understood what Shao Peichen meant and couldn't say it over the phone. He would have someone deliver it to him.
Chen Jinjun nodded: "Okay."
"Let's do this for now." Shao Peichen hung up the phone.
Chen Jinjun listened to the busy tone coming from the receiver and sighed.
"Ms. Chen, are you at home?" A broken Chinese voice came from outside.
Chen Jinjun looked over and saw Kasef standing outside the door, panting, with messy hair and looking quite haggard.
"Let him come in." Chen Jinjun put the receiver back, slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.
Kasef stumbled up the stairs and stood in front of Chen Jinjun.
Chen Jinjun greeted him skillfully in French.
Kasef looked at Chen Jinjun in surprise, obviously not expecting that Chen Jinjun could have a simple communication with him in French in such a short period of time.
However, this discovery did not make Kaisef feel even a little better.
Chen Jinjun saw that Kaisef was in a bad state and asked someone to give him a cup of tea.
Kasef held the tea cup in his hand and looked at Chen Jinjun with dull eyes: "Miss Chen, I think I must apologize to you."
Chen Jinjun didn't know why and looked at Kasef curiously with raised eyebrows.
Kasef put the tea cup on the coffee table and knelt upright in front of Chen Jinjun.
Chen Jinjun's eyelids jumped in fright at his sudden movement, but he did not move.
"You Han people have to kneel down to apologize. Even if I am not a Han, I still have to do the same. This is what it should be." Kessef lowered his head, looking particularly depressed.
"What happened?"
Chen Jinjun raised her hand and rubbed her temples, which had been throbbing. She had a hunch that what Kaisef was going to say next might be related to Dou Zhun's marriage to the daughter of a French count.
"Miss Chen, do you still remember the dance I mentioned?" Kaisef's voice was trembling, and he slightly raised his head and looked at Chen Jinjun.
Chen Jinjun rubbed his temples and nodded.
"That's the ball you didn't agree to. I know it was held by my mother in order to choose a wife for me. Then, in order to express my rejection, I lost face of the count's daughter at the ball."
Kasef looked at Chen Jinjun guiltily.
Chen Jinjun frowned: "What does this have to do with me?"
Everything Kasef said just now was about what he had done. Chen Jinjun did not hear anything detrimental to him.
unless……
"That Earl's daughter is nothing more than an embroidered pillow. She likes glitz and scorns literature and art. I don't look down on such a person."
Kessef's voice gradually became lower.
"What I'm asking is, what does this have to do with me?" Chen Jinjun looked at Kaisef displeased, and he was not that interested in listening to him talk about his own taste here.
Kasef was shocked by Chen Jinjun, and timidly said to Chen Jinjun in a strange accent: "I compared her with you..."
Chen Jinjun stopped rubbing his temples and stared at Kaisef's olive-green pupils: "So, you are at your blind date dance, and I compare with the count's daughter?"
As he spoke, Chen Jinjun's narrowed eyes were filled with an aura of danger.
Kaisef opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Chen Jinjun's aura made him unable to breathe, so he could only nod his head tremblingly.
Chen Jinjun was not as angry as he expected. Instead, he sneered and looked away: "Okay, it's really great."
She snorted: "Kneeling down, I really won't give in to you. Why are you so bold?"
Kasef kept saying sorry, sorry.
Chen Jinjun closed his eyes and took several deep breaths: "So, how did the earl's daughter get together with Dou Zhun?"
Even if the Earl of Foguo and Kaisev's parents wanted to take action against him, Chen Jinjun did not believe that they would not take into account the existence and face of the Republic of China government.
But if Dou Zhun is added to this, everything becomes different.
Kasef was stunned for a moment, obviously not knowing about this matter.
Chen Jinjun already knew what was going on by looking at his expression.
