The outer courtyard teaching building, classroom-
"Qiu Xi, come up here for a moment."
"Xiao Xi, haven't you submitted the homework you owe Dr. Deng? Today's presentation is on it." Song Daiyao looked at Qiu Xi in shock, thinking Dr. Deng was calling her to urge her about homework again.
"How could that be, am I that kind of person?!" She had submitted the overdue homework long ago, alright!
It was just that she herself couldn't figure out why the teacher was calling her now.
"Then why is Dr. Deng calling you?" Besides homework, Song Daiyao couldn't think of any other reason.
"I don't understand either, I'll go up and see."
Seeing everyone's eyes on her, Qiu Xi braced herself and walked up.
"Teacher, what's wrong?"
"Nothing much, just wanted to chat with you about that script for the play."
At the invitation of others, the few teachers sitting in the office all wanted to see the script.
The main reason was that the teachers in the office were not teaching this class anymore, so it was quite awkward to suddenly come to him. Coincidentally, they saw he had a class, so they came along.
"What's up?"
"We teachers want to take a look, and see if Teacher Yang can record a video for it."
This was something Qiu Xi hadn't expected. The script was a system reward, so it was fine. She just didn't know what the video would be about.
"Teacher, is this video recording going to involve us?"
"You'll have to discuss that with Teacher Yang, but it should be you guys."
"Don't worry, Teacher Yang never shortchanges students for this kind of thing, you can give it a try."
Seeing Qiu Xi hesitating a bit, Deng Jun thought the student was reluctant.
"It's not that, it's that I need to discuss it with those classmates."
Sensing the teacher's misunderstanding, Qiu Xi immediately explained.
"It's fine, then you discuss it. We teachers just want to see the script, is that okay?"
"That's no problem, I'll send you the electronic version later."
"Okay, then I'll thank you on behalf of the teachers first."
"Teacher, it's nothing, it's a small matter." The two had just finished chatting when class was about to start.
......
"Xiao Xi, are you going to discuss it with the class monitor and the others later?"
During class, Song Daiyao couldn't help but gossip, getting the whole story.
"Mhm, I mentioned it in the group chat, I'll ask for their opinions later. If there are no problems, I'll have the class monitor go talk to Teacher Yang."
"Mhm, mhm, will it take long? If not, we'll wait for you to go together."
"It should only take a moment, right here in the classroom, just wait a bit."
"Okay."
"Sister Xi, what did you say in the group chat?"
As soon as class ended, the class monitor came over with a few people.
"It's just like that, Teacher Yang wants to film this video, and it needs us to discuss it ourselves."
"Is it really okay?"
"If none of you have any objections, then we'll go discuss it." If not, she would just go talk to Teacher Yang about the script herself. Seeing everyone remaining silent for a moment, Qiu Xi was a bit uncertain.
"What do you think?"
"It's a must!" Even if there wasn't a potential material reward, just for the chance to interact with the teacher, it was worth it.
It was a sure win-win situation!
"Sister Xi, there are no problems."
"Since everyone says so, then class monitor, find some time to go discuss it with Teacher Yang!"
"Me?" Pointing at herself, the class monitor was a bit unsure, could she go?
"Who else if not you? You're our person in charge!"
"That's right, Class Monitor!"
"Okay, I'll go." At worst, she could bring Sister Xi along, and Sister Xi probably wanted to find Teacher Yang too.
"Yay! Class Monitor is awesome!"
"Alright then, let's all go eat." Urging everyone to go eat, the class monitor pulled Qiu Xi aside.
"Sister Xi, will you come with me later?"
"Huh? Sure!" Qiu Xi, startled for a moment, thought it was something difficult. Anyway, she was going to find Teacher Yang too, so it would be better to go together.
"Okay. I'll let you know once I've arranged it."
"Mhm, mhm, thanks for your trouble!"
"It's nothing, Sister Xi, you're the one who's been working hard!" The class monitor actually knew that if it weren't for Sister Xi, these few of them might not have reached this point.
"Alright, let's go eat."
"Mhm, mhm."
"Sisters, let's go too." Seeing everyone leaving, Qiu Xi called out to her three roommates and prepared to head to the cafeteria.
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Daiyao hugged her tightly.
"Xiao Xi, can you include me when you film?" Having listened for a long time, Song Daiyao had understood the whole situation and wanted to join in on this.
Qiu Xi raised an eyebrow, "Huh?"
"Don't worry, I'll just watch, I won't do anything."
"Also... alright, if it works out, I'll go ask." If it really worked out, Teacher Yang probably wouldn't mind an extra person to help with odd jobs.
"Okay!"
With Xiao Xi's promise, Song Daiyao felt reassured.
"Xiao Feifei, do you want to join the fun?"
"...Not really." She was already busy enough, sometimes not even having time to spend with her boyfriend, so she wouldn't join this fun.
"Okay, then let's go eat quickly."
"Let's go, let's go!"
Dorm 310, Building 17-
"Xiao Xi, someone seems to be looking for you downstairs." As soon as she opened the door, the person who knocked said, "Sister Xi, someone is looking for you downstairs."
It was quite a coincidence that someone was looking for her, and it was a girl from their class who delivered the message.
"Ah? Who is it?"
Qiu Xi thought for a long time, unable to figure out who would be looking for her at this time and need to send someone to call her.
"I don't know, she just said someone was looking for you and then left. I didn't have time to ask." Shrugging, Liang Yunfei indicated she didn't know.
"Okay, let me put on my shoes and go down to see."
Since she couldn't figure out who it was, Qiu Xi jumped up and prepared to go down.
"Go ahead."
Slowly strolling to the bottom of the dormitory building, Qiu Xi immediately saw two people at the entrance, laden with bags, which shocked her.
She rubbed her eyes hard, suspecting she was hallucinating.
Opening her eyes again, she saw the people were still there.
"Dad! Mom! Why are you here?" As she spoke, she ran and lunged at them.
"Really, why did you come all this way! You didn't even tell me you were coming!"
While hugging them, Qiu Xi, though happy, couldn't help but scold her parents. What if she wasn't at school or was busy elsewhere!
"We wanted to give you a surprise!"
Patting her daughter, Dad Qiu thought his daughter seemed to have lost some weight at school.
If Qiu Xi knew, she would probably roll her eyes. This university was a pigsty, it was already good if she didn't gain weight, let alone lose any! If it weren't for Xiao Hua, she would have suspected she had gained weight.
"Alright, Xiao Xi, take this upstairs. We'll take you out to eat."
After hugging enough, Mom Qiu looked at the bustling path and felt they needed to move to a different location.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be right down."
Looking at the pile of things, Qiu Xi didn't find it troublesome and readily agreed.
"Xiao Xi, do you want to invite your roommates to join us?"
Looking at her daughter, Mom Qiu thought about whether to invite them to eat together.
"Yes, yes, your mother is right, ask them."
Whether it was being henpecked or doting on his daughter, Dad Qiu strongly agreed with Mom Qiu's suggestion.
"Okay, I'll go up and ask."
"However, Dad, why don't you and Mom go back to the car first? We might need a little more time."
Thinking about her roommates, Qiu Xi made a suggestion to her parents.
"Okay, okay, we're not in a hurry."
"Hurry up and go up."
Then, Qiu Xi, who came down empty-handed, looked as if she had visited every house, carrying large bags and packages back to the dormitory.
"Xiao Xi, did you go robbing?"
Seeing Qiu Xi almost buried by the pile of things, Song Daiyao asked.
"Xiao Xi, where did you go?"
The three came up to help, still very curious about what had happened.
"No, it's just that my parents are here, and they want to invite you all to dinner, what do you say?"
"Ah! Uncle and Aunt are here?!"
"So suddenly?"
"Will it be inconvenient?"
"It's not inconvenient at all, but it is indeed very sudden. Will you guys come along?"
"But we're in such a mess?" Liang Yunfei pointed at themselves, who were lazy to the extreme on rest days, including herself, and felt a bit annoyed.
"It's okay, I told them, we'll be quick."
"Okay, then we'll get ready quickly."
"Mhm, mhm."
After about ten minutes, the four of them finally went out.
