Chapter 1669 - Cousin's inquiries
Duan Shu Xian accompanied Duan Shumin on her stroll. Duan Shumin had come this time to inquire about Xi Jingchen's matters.
"I heard that your school has a young professor named Xi?" Duan Shumin smiled and asked his cousin.
Duan Shu Xian found it hard to hide her shock. "Sis, how did you know!"
A sweet smile flashed past Duan Shumin's eyes as she answered, "Someone told me."
"I never thought that the Teacher Xi would be so famous. Even you know about it." Duan Shu Xian was surprised, "Who told you that!?"
Duan Shumin squinted his eyes, there was respect in his eyes, "Teacher Xi's mother."
Duan Shu Xian was instantly shocked. Her brain was not working well, but she had grasped the main point. Teacher Xi's mother?
His mother was none other than … Present? So, does my cousin also know the true identity of the Teacher Xi?In order to hide her thoughts, Duan Shu Xian asked in a natural tone, "Sis, you've seen Teacher Xi's mother before!"
"Hm!" I have. On Saturday, I went to Teacher Xi's house to be a guest and had a meal. " Of course, Duan Shumin did not know that Duan Shu Jing had figured out Xi Jingchen's identity.In this school, Xi Jingchen would definitely conceal his identity, and would not reveal his identity as a child, so, she wanted to make sure that people here, even if they had met Xi Jingchen before, would not know who he was.
Duan Shu Xian smiled naturally, but the shock in her heart was immense. Her cousin was a guest at the Pavilion Lord Manor? What an honor!
Just then, Duan Shumin's phone rang. She picked it up and looked at it, then said to Duan Shu Xian, "I'm going to answer a call." Duan Shu Xian waited at the side and heard Duan Shumin's voice on the phone. Although she was young, she had a certain dignity, as if she was communicating with something, and her tone was simple yet forceful. After she finished calling, Duan Shumin returned and said to her, "I should go back to work.
It was done! I have urgent matters to take care of. Next time, I'll come and find you. "
Duan Shu Xian nodded. "Alright!"Duan Shumin walked towards the direction of the car park from another direction, Duan Shu Xian gazed at her leaving figure, she suddenly remembered that Xi Jingchen was still in the library.
She hurried off in the direction of the library, her mind suddenly churning with the kiss he had just given her, her pretty face flushed in the spring sunshine.
As expected, Xi Jingchen did not leave the library. He was sitting in a corner with a book in his hands and a dozen students had also come to help him. However, they did not dare disturb his reading.
Duan Shu Xian walked past him, Xi Jingchen immediately looked up at her, then closed the book and stood up. "I have something to say to you."
Duan Shu Xian nodded. "Sure!" "I'll go to the warehouse to deliver the items. Let's go out and chat in the garden outside!"Xi Jingchen took the book and followed her towards the direction of the storage. Coming out from the storage was a quiet and uninhabited small garden.
Duan Shu Xian also had a lot of questions she wanted to ask him, but she didn't know how.
"Who was the person looking for you just now?" Xi Jingchen asked first.
"That's my cousin, my uncle's daughter." Duan Shu Xian answered him seriously. Thinking of how her cousin had been a guest at his house, she was sure she knew him.Xi Jingchen was slightly startled, he did not expect that she was also a child of the Duan Clan, and was even a cousin of Duan Shumin's.
"Do you know my cousin?" Duan Shu Xian couldn't help asking.Xi Jingchen nodded, "I have."
Of course, Duan Shu Xian wasn't surprised. Perhaps when her cousin went to visit him at his house, he was there as well!
"My cousin is a very good diplomat." Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips and smiled.Xi Jingchen looked at her with a complicated feeling in his heart. How could there be such a coincidence? She's a member of the Duan Clan?
"Oh!" My cousin is asking me about you! She said she was a guest at your house. " Duan Shu Xian smiled.
Xi Jingchen tensed up slightly, and his voice became deeper, "What else did she say?"Duan Shu Xian shook her head. "Nothing!"
Xi Jingchen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It seems like Duan Shumin did not tell her that she intended to make a blind date with her during the meal that day.
"All the children of your Duan Clan are outstanding, and you are no exception." Xi Jingchen praised.
"I... I don't have any! The best are my cousin and cousin. They are the true pillars of our nation! "
Xi Jingchen suddenly felt sorry for her. Compared to her uncle's family, her family was much more ordinary, but would she feel any pressure from being in the same generation?Just then, Xi Jingchen's phone rang, he picked it up and looked, then picked it up, "Hello!"
"Young Master, I received your call, asking you to return to Pavilion Lord Manor." The voice of the bodyguard, Ah Liang, drifted over.
"Good!" I'll be right there. " Xi Jingchen replied.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Duan Shu Xian didn't want to delay his time any longer, so she hurriedly said, "If you have something to do, then go and busy yourself with it!"
Xi Jingchen caressed her head, "See you tomorrow."
Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips and nodded, "En!"
Xi Jingchen's figure disappeared from the side of the road. Duan Shu Xian's smile became puzzled, why did her cousin and aunt suddenly go to Pavilion Lord Manor to be guests?
However, this was something that she could not figure out. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, she received a call from her father, so she returned to the Duan Residence to eat.
Duan Shu Xian naturally went back. No matter what, the family feast was very important.
After getting into her father's car, Duan Deming drove out. Duan Shu Xian couldn't help but start chatting, "Dad, Sister Min came to school today."
Duan Deming asked curiously, "Is she busy?"
"She only came for a short while, and then she took the important phone call and left.""Oh!" Is she here to see you? " Duan Deming asked.
Duan Shu Xian thought for a moment before shaking her head. "She probably didn't come to look for me."
"Then who is she looking for?"
Duan Shu Xian wasn't sure either. Who was her cousin looking for? Looking for the Teacher Xi?"I didn't ask! But she came to the library to see me first. " Duan Shu Xian panicked.
Duan Deming thought back to the time when his wife mentioned that his sister-in-law had received a call to bring his niece along as a guest. Could it be that this niece was here to look for Young Master Xi?
Duan Mansion.
Tonight's meal seemed to be even richer than usual. Old Man Duan was very happy today, and before the meal even started, he got the butler to take out a bottle of wine he treasured, saying that he wanted to drink it on the table.Duan Shu Xian was also surprised by her grandfather's good mood today. Did he have something to be happy about?
Just then, Duan Shumin's figure walked in from outside. She greeted the elders on the sofa and heard Song Meilan's voice, "Min Min, quickly go change and go downstairs to eat."
"Alright!" Duan Shumin replied with a smile, seeing Duan Shu Xian beside him, she said affectionately: "Xiao Xian come up, come sit in my room."
Duan Shu Xian happily agreed as she followed Duan Shumin upstairs.
Duan Shumin's room was extremely clean and tidy, and everything in her room was according to the standards of a rich girl. She had a famous tag bag, a large independent clothing room, and even the cosmetics on that table were brands that ordinary people couldn't use.Duan Shumin took off her jacket, and at the same time, she turned to Duan Shu Xian, "Xiao Xian, let me ask you about that Teacher Xi, is he popular in school?"
The reason Duan Shumin called her up here was to inquire about Xi Jingchen's situation in the school.
Duan Shu Xian would have definitely been able to tell her some information. If she didn't walk so fast in the afternoon, she would have asked.
Duan Shu Xian froze for a second, then smiled. "Teacher Xi!" Of course he was welcome! His classes are always full. "
"I wonder, are there more female students in his lessons?" Duan Shumin put down her long hair that she had rolled up, revealing the feelings of a mature woman.
As Duan Shu Xian appreciated it, she smiled and said, "That's right! The moment he came, he was already a celebrity in the school! "
Duan Shumin suddenly sat down beside Duan Shu Xian, her eyes filled with anticipation, "Xiao Xian, did he spread any rumors?"Duan Shu Xian's heart suddenly tightened, and she nervously blinked her eyes. "Sis, he …" He's not a scandal! "
"Really?" There are no rumours of him getting too close to any girl. " Duan Shumin asked again. Duan Shu Xian's heart abruptly skipped a beat. If he really had heard of the rumors, then it was the one she had made with him last time. However, she had already broken the rumors. It was at this moment that Li Yu's voice sounded from outside the door, "Xiao Min, Little Xian, come down.
It's time to eat. "
"Alright! Aunt, we're coming down. " Duan Shumin replied, then pulled Duan Shu Xian and said, "Xiao Xian, let's go! We'll talk after dinner. " Duan Shu Xian nodded and followed Duan Shumin downstairs. The elders already sat at the table.
