Chapter Vol. 1 Ch. 67.2

“Damn! You guys are still laughing!”

“Ning Chu! Come back here!”

Their smiles vanished instantly.

Ning Chu’s expression stiffened.

He turned to see Han Jingye standing at the office door, waving him over.

Crap!

Am I really being targeted by the counselor?

Could it be that the unnamed victim in the book is also me?

He felt a bit panicked and instinctively looked at Wen Yang for help.

Wen Yang, thinking the counselor was going to reprimand him again, comforted him, “I’ll go with you.”

“I’ll wait for you guys at the cafeteria.”

Anxiously returning to the office, Ning Chu sat on the edge of a chair, his body tense. He nervously glanced up at Han Jingye.

Am I really playing two roles?

Could all those unnamed characters in the book be me?

“Don’t be nervous.” Han Jingye pointed to the chair opposite the desk, indicating for him to sit down.

Then he looked at Wen Yang, “By the way, have you sorted out the financial aid applications? Some students’ documents haven’t been submitted yet. Can you follow up? We need to organize everything after the holiday.”

“Yes, I’ve already reminded them.”

“I need to talk to Ning Chu about something. You can go back.”

Ning Chu perched on the edge of the chair, body tense.

He looked at Wen Yang in panic, afraid he would really leave.

The book said the counselor used scholarships to coerce and seduce!

It said the victims were girls!

At least wait until I’m fully transformed into a girl before you make a move!

This is too crude!

Wen Yang gave him a helpless smile, “Alright, I’ll wait outside.”

“But…”

Ning Chu watched Wen Yang leave, but hearing him say he’d wait outside eased his anxiety a bit.

Ning Chu bit his lip, his eyes scanning for a weapon.

He swallowed hard, preparing to scream loud enough for Wen Yang to break in if necessary.

“Ning Chu…” Han Jingye hesitated, then asked, “You know Wen Yang’s family situation isn’t good, right?”

This opening left Ning Chu a bit puzzled.@@novelbin@@

He looked at Han Jingye blankly and instinctively nodded.

“You seem to get along well with him. Try to advise him when you can. The school’s financial aid requirements aren’t too strict.”

Ning Chu suddenly understood.

So it was about this!

The book did mention that the protagonist’s family situation was tough, which led to various part-time jobs and chance encounters.

But he didn’t realize it had reached the point of needing financial aid.

He agreed without hesitation, “Okay!”

Han Jingye seemed hesitant, pausing for a moment, making Ning Chu nervous again.

“Do you have some grudge against me?”

Ning Chu froze, quickly shaking his head.

“Every time you see me, it’s like you’re looking at a criminal.” Han Jingye shook his head with a smile, “Your gaze is strange, and it bothers me a bit.”

“No, it’s not like that!”

This counselor actually seemed decent…

He seemed to genuinely care about the students.

Ning Chu felt conflicted.

He suddenly had a thought and cautiously asked, “Teacher, why didn’t you go home for National Day?”

“Me? I live in the staff dorms. If I go home, I’ll be pestered to get married, so I’d rather stay here.”

That was a valid reason…
