Chapter 11
Old Zhou put his newspaper down and took off his glasses. He said reluctantly, “A young man should eat fewer takeaways and exercise more. Only then can you be healthy. With just a small shower and a breeze, you got sick for two weeks? Your body is really weak.”
Sick? Su Yang got even more confused.
Old Zhou pulled his drawer out to take a small paper box and passed it to Su Yang. “Here are some dried goji berries to brighten your sight and protect your liver. It also heals your weak body and relaxes your mind. Take it for a long time and it can boost your immunity.”
Su Yang blankly accepted the paper box although he did not know what Old Zhou was trying to sell him.
1Old Zhou then opened his Thermos flask and cooled it down with several blows, making the goji berries inside rumble about.
He took a sip of the hot water and waved at Su Yang. “It’s okay now. Go back and take care of your body. A young man should work out more. If your class secretary hadn’t told me about you, I wouldn’t have known that you are this weak.” He then tapped Su Yang’s shoulder, but Su Yang did not even budge.
1Old Zhou felt awkward at that instant.
When Chu Xia mentioned passing the test, Su Yang felt an immediate headache come on. For whatever reason, most of the universities in the country required the students to get at least a Class 4 in the English subject to graduate. For an undergraduate university like Su Yang’s, it might be easier since he would still be able to graduate albeit without an honorary degree certificate. The thought alone hurt his mind.
“T-thanks.” Su Yang bitterly thanked Chu Xia and simply sat down near her.
He had not given up on searching for a secluded seat, but Qu Xiaomeng had already entered the lecture hall.
The moment she stepped in, her eyes scanned over the lecture hall and ultimately landed on Su Yang as if she came here just for him.
