Chapter 4: 1 Heartbeat

Chapter 4 A Touch of Heart
As time goes by, more and more new students come to report, and the students who come to report to Software Class 4 know where to go as soon as they arrive at the school gate.

Among the pavilions for receiving new students, there was a handsome and good-looking boy sleeping on a table with half of his face covered by a sign.

Looking more closely, there are two lines of words on the sign:
【mascot】

[Software Class 4 reports to find the beautiful senior student next to you]

Zheng Ya was busy welcoming the new students. She occasionally glanced at the sleeping Lin Yi in silence: "Does he have narcolepsy? How can he fall asleep here?"

"Senior, does this senior have a girlfriend?"

A good-looking girl asked Zheng Ya after learning where to find her counselor.

"he?"

Zheng Ya was going to wake Lin Yi up and let him answer himself.

Just as I turned my head, I saw Lin Yi lying on his stomach and flipping the sign in his hand over: [Married, with a beautiful wife at home. ]

"Sorry to disturb your rest, Senior."

The girl entered the school gate feeling a little lost.

Zheng Ya knew that Lin Yi was not asleep, so she started asking him, "Lin Yi, when did you get married?"

Compared to being lazy, Zheng Ya is more curious about this question.

"Last week."

"With whom?"

"nothing dealing with you."

"."

Zheng Ya curled her lips. Her gossipy thoughts had just risen when they were extinguished by Lin Yi's attitude.

Lin Yi is one of the most handsome boys on campus at Sucheng University, and he is also the only unmarried handsome guy. There are all kinds of girls chasing after him.

It’s just that Lin Yi is a stay-at-home guy. He used to come to class at least, but he hardly attended classes since last semester. Some girls can’t even see Lin Yi, let alone confess their love to him.

The sudden announcement of their marriage surprised Zheng Ya greatly. She especially wanted to know which beautiful lady and Lin Yi had obtained the marriage certificate.

However, looking at Lin Yi's current attitude, Zheng Ya knew that she couldn't ask the answer.

"Since you're not asleep, can you help me out? Don't leave me alone, okay?"

"Aren't I helping? I'll just hold up a sign so the freshmen in Class 4 can see it at a glance. We don't even need to greet them. How nice."

Zheng Ya was about to say something else when a long-haired beauty in a black dress and carrying a shoulder bag appeared next to Lin Yi, causing her to shut up immediately.

"cough!"

"Drink more hot water if you have a cold."

Lin Yi thought it was Zheng Ya coughing, so he didn't take it seriously.

"cough!!!"

The second cough was a little heavier, and Lin Yi also felt something was wrong: "Why does this cough sound so familiar?"

Suddenly a cold face popped up in his mind, and Lin Yi was so scared that he sat up quickly.

Sure enough, when he looked up, he saw Luo Qinghan with his arms folded across his chest, looking at him with a frown.

"I asked you to come and help, not to sleep in somewhere else."

Lin Yi said to Luo Qinghan with a smile: "I helped too."

Luo Qinghan glared at Lin Yi. The sharp look in her cold and beautiful eyes made Lin Yi quickly put away his playful expression: What a murderer! No wonder no one wants her even though she is so beautiful at the age of 26.

"Zheng Ya, go and have a rest. I'll just take care of recording the new students."

Luo Qinghan put his shoulder bag on the table and took out the laptop and notebook he used to record the report.

"Teacher Luo, why did you come out? It's quite hot outside, why don't you stay in the office?"

The other freshman counselors were hiding in their offices enjoying the air conditioning, leaving the task of welcoming the new students to these volunteer students. Only one counselor, Luo Qinghan, came to the school gate.

"I'm coming out to get some fresh air. It's not good to stay in the office all the time. You can go back. Lin Yi and I are the only ones here."

Zheng Ya nodded and gave her seat to Luo Qinghan. "You come to greet the new students, and I'll take notes."

"Oh~"

Lin Yi almost had the word "reluctant" written on his face.

But there was nothing he could do since this woman was not only his mentor but also his wife. No matter from which perspective of the relationship, he had to listen to her. After all, it was a reasonable request.

It is already past ten in the morning, and more and more people are coming to register.

"What is your name?"

"Cai Xukun."

"What a nice name! The school basketball team welcomes you."

"next."

Lin Yi greeted the new students very quickly. He asked their names, took the admission letters, handed the dormitory keys and campus cards to the new students, and then moved on to the next one.

It was so fast that Luo Qinghan couldn't keep up with the recording speed.

It was not until after eleven o'clock in the afternoon that the two of them had a short break. Luo Qinghan finally asked the question in his mind: "Were you a volunteer last year?"

"No, I won't do this kind of free labor job."

"Then how come you are so skilled in receiving new students?"

"I have done similar work before, so I am quite skilled."

In the past hour, Lin Yi seemed like a different person. He no longer had the lazy air and his movements were clean and neat.

Luo Qinghan even saw maturity and sophistication in him.

In this world where there are few men, middle-aged men approaching forty may not necessarily have this kind of calm temperament. It cannot be faked.

Before traveling through time, Lin Yi graduated from university at the age of 22. He was tortured by society for four years, which changed him a lot.

His original vigor and vitality were wiped out. The endless overtime work made him physically and mentally exhausted. For an ordinary adult, getting a good night's sleep was a luxury.

Now back to college life, Lin Yi spends all day thinking about sleeping and being lazy, just releasing the emotions and dissatisfaction that have been suppressing him for four years.

Lin Yi drank some water and became lazy again. He turned to Luo Qinghan and said, "It's time for lunch. How about we find two people to replace us and go have lunch?"

Seeing Lin Yi’s impatient look as he tried to slip away, Luo Qinghan’s feelings for Lin Yi were shattered.

But she was indeed hungry.

"There are only a few freshmen left. Let Zheng Ya and the others come this afternoon. I'll go out with you to have lunch."

"Why are you eating out?"

Lin Yi, the lazy guy, was already preparing to go directly to the cafeteria to pack a meal and go back to the dormitory to enjoy the air conditioning.

The temperature at noon was as high as 33 degrees. If Lin Yi wasn't thin, he would have been sweating profusely.

"The cafeteria is packed with people now and the queues are very long."

While Luo Qinghan was speaking, he had already taken out a parasol from his bag.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and stood up: "That makes sense."

Luo Qinghan opened the parasol and walked out of the pavilion.

I thought Lin Yi would also hide under her umbrella, but I didn't expect that after he came out, he would keep some distance from her.

"Let's go? Why are you standing there? Aren't you hungry too?"

Lin Yi woke up the dazed Luo Qinghan.

"Ah."

Luo Qinghan was walking on the innermost side of the sidewalk holding an umbrella, while Lin Yi kept a distance from her and walked under the scorching sun.

For some reason, Luo Qinghan felt that this atmosphere was very awkward.

Suddenly, her steps became slanted, and the black umbrella gradually blocked the sun above Lin Yi's head.
