On the morning of December 31st, Song Fengwan still had two classes until noon.

Fu Chen had told her in advance that they were going out to play on New Year’s Eve. She was distracted during these two classes, and her heart had long flown away.

About half an hour later, the sound of classmates whispering came from the back of the classroom. The professor was an old pedant in his sixties. His teaching was rigorous, and his style was upright. This also led to high requirements for homework and attendance.

When school started, he had said that anyone caught skipping class once would receive a warning. The second time, he would lower their class grade. The third time, he would directly fail them.

Everyone was frightened, and no one dared to skip class easily.

Even though it was almost the holidays, everyone still had to sit quietly.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the back. The professor narrowed his eyes and pushed the glasses on his nose bridge.

“The new boy at the back, which class are you from? Why are you here?” His voice was like a loud bell, low and strong.

Song Fengwan turned her head to look back and suddenly saw a familiar face. Her face flushed red. Why is he here?!

“I’m not a student. I’m here to wait for my girlfriend.” Fu Chen’s voice was very calm.

Because it was winter, it was impossible for him to wear a formal suit. His long black down coat was placed at the side, and he was wearing a simple thin sweater. He looked clean and refreshing, and he even looked younger than many university students.

This old professor was focused on academics, so how could he know Fu Chen?

“Girlfriend?” The professor was used to this kind of thing. “You’re not in school anymore?”

“I’ve already graduated.”

“What did you study?”

“Finance.”

“Not bad…”

The old professor asked a few questions casually and continued to explain the composition and proportions of some world-famous paintings.

Almost all the students knew Fu Chen. Everyone’s gaze alternated between him and Song Fengwan, and they had already started whispering.

“Third Master is even more handsome in person. Let me tell you. When I heard that he’s Old Master Fu’s son before, I intuitively thought that he was a little old man.”

“Is he thirty? He doesn’t look like it at all. Indeed, good men belong to others.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen Song Fengwan blushing. How rare. I’ve been her classmate for two years, but she’s never been so shy.”

“After all, they’re also ordinary people. I’ve even seen the two of them strolling around the school.”

…

Other than occasionally replying to Song Fengwan’s messages, Fu Chen had been listening seriously to the professor’s class. Seeing that he was serious, the old professor even spoke to him.

Although he was an amateur, he had put in a lot of effort to please Qiao Wangbei back then. He could comment on the subject and even knew a lot of professional vocabulary. Hearing their conversation, many students were stunned.

This outstanding person was indeed outstanding in all aspects.

Hu Xinyue kept poking Song Fengwan. “Your third brother is too graceful today.”

“That’s right. This professor never praises people easily.” Miao Yating lowered her head and smiled. “Let me tell you. There are already posts on the school forum about Third Master Fu accompanying you in class. You two are definitely the most explosive subject currently.”

After all, Fu Chen wasn’t an entertainment celebrity. Even if the media wanted to report on his private life, they didn’t dare to go overboard.

The moment the dismissal bell rang, Song Fengwan put away her book, grabbed her bag, and ran to the back, preparing to pull Fu Chen away. After all, she was a girl, so she was inevitably a little shy in this aspect.

“Hey, girl, what’s the hurry? Stop right there. I still have something to say to your boyfriend.”

Song Fengwan could only endure it and return to her seat.

At this moment, most of the people in the classroom hadn’t left yet and were just watching the show in peace.

The old professor saw that his girlfriend was Song Fengwan, so he matched Fu Chen’s name. So, he’s Old Master Fu’s son. No wonder he’s outstanding.

He had only heard of it before, but he had never seen it before. He also paid little attention to some news and the like.

Back then, Old Master Fu had been in charge of the country’s diplomacy, so he naturally had to be proficient in everything. If someone caught him committing a mistake, it would be a disgrace to the country. The knowledge reserves of these seniors were completely different from those of the children nowadays.

“I thought it was a pity that you didn’t inherit any of your grandfather’s craftsmanship. But now, it seems…

“You inherited a little.”

The old professor smiled at Song Fengwan. “For example, you have good taste.”

It was impossible for Song Fengwan to talk back to the teacher. Her face was red as if it was on fire. Finally, Fu Chen held her hand and walked out of the school building. They returned to the dormitory to get her luggage and some clothes before leaving the campus.

She felt so embarrassed that she couldn’t face anyone.

But no matter how Fu Chen looked at her, he felt that she was exceptionally cute.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming? I’m really…”

“What? Am I an embarrassment to you? Or do you think I’m not presentable?” Fu Chen, holding the steering wheel, glanced at her from the corner of his eye.

“It’s definitely not like that. I just think that after today, I’ll definitely have a lot of love rivals. After all, my Third Brother is too outstanding.”

Fu Chen smiled without saying anything.

***

The two of them had a simple lunch outside. Song Fengwan originally thought that he would drive straight back to Yunjin Prime Manor, but she didn’t expect the car to go directly to the suburbs. It was in the opposite direction of the city center, and they gradually drove away.

“We’re going now?” Song Fengwan was a little surprised.

“Yes?”

“But my mom and the others are still at your place. Isn’t it bad not to go back?”

“I’ve already told them. They have their own plans, and they’re not at my place anymore.”

They have plans?

Song Fengwan was no longer happy. Mom and Uncle Yan are doing something with Little Chi, but they didn’t even tell me?

“Then, where are we going?” Song Fengwan didn’t know where Fu Chen was taking her. He had been tight-lipped and hadn’t revealed anything.

Even a talkative person like Shi Fang didn’t say anything.

Fu Chen had said long ago that if he leaked half a word…

He would silence him forever.

Shi Fang was just short of sewing his mouth shut to express his loyalty to Fu Chen.

He wasn’t married and didn’t have children yet, and he hoped to live a few more years. He didn’t want to die so young.

“You’ll know when we get there. It’s not far,” Fu Chen said.

Song Fengwan chatted with him. But as the car drove into the mountains, she felt that this place was exceptionally familiar.

As far as the eye could see, there were mountains after mountains. The white snow-capped peaks never melted all year round, and the pure white snow pressed down on the tree branches. As a certain building appeared, Song Fengwan’s heart surged.

This is…

This is where we went out for the first time alone. The ski resort we stayed at?

Recalling how Fu Chen had pretended to be drunk and kissed her, Song Fengwan still felt embarrassed, but she also felt that time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third New Year’s she was spending with Fu Chen.

Ever since the avalanche incident overseas, they had never skied again. Song Fengwan still had lingering fears. When she regained her senses, she also felt that it was a pity.

After all, Fu Chen liked skiing, and she wanted him to be happy…

The car was still a distance away from entering the mountains. Moreover, it was the holidays, and there was a lot of traffic. The car was stuck in traffic halfway.

At this moment, Fu Chen’s phone vibrated. He put it on speakerphone.

“Hello.”

“Third Master.” It was Shi Fang. He had obviously arrived early.

“Yes?”

“Sixth Master and Miss Xu are already here, but there seems to be something wrong with the arrangements of the rooms.”

“What’s wrong?”

“The hotel is already full. Are they staying in the same suite?”

“It’s not the same bed. What are they afraid of? They can do their own things behind closed doors. If they have any problems, I can find people to change with them.”

Shi Fang relayed Fu Chen’s words to the two people in the lobby.

Sitting on a chair, Jing Hanchuan remained silent.

Xu Yuanfei was anxious.

From the moment he picked her up and she got into his car, they had chatted along the way, but his attitude toward her was obviously lukewarm. She didn’t know what exactly had happened. If they stayed in the same suite and saw each other frequently, wouldn’t it be awkward to death?

“Sixth Master?” Shi Fang asked softly.

“I’m fine with it.”

“Miss Xu, what about you?”

Xu Yuanfei also wanted to interact more with Jing Hanchuan, so she nodded in agreement.

The two of them went to their suite. There was a small public living room in the middle…

Before Xu Yuanfei entered her room, Jing Hanchuan stopped her. “Wait a minute.”

“What’s the matter?”

“I have something to ask you.”

“Go ahead.” It was Xu Yuanfei’s first time going on a trip with him, so she couldn’t help feeling nervous.

“What did Fu Chen say to you to make you change your mind?”

Xu Yuanfei didn’t expect him to mention this. When she thought of Fu Chen’s face, her face gradually blushed…

Jing Hanchuan’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter. What did he say to make her face blush?
