Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Regret

”You sure took off pretty fast after telling me to wait for you,”

He Wei said while shaking off water droplets from his lunch container and jogging to catch up with Wen Siyuan. The two of them walked side by side toward the dormitory area.

Wen Siyuan: ”You know the way back to the dorms as well as I do.”

He Wei: ”Someone’s touchy! Spill it, who got under Teacher Wen’s skin?”

”It’s just you being nosy. I shouldn’t have gossiped with Group Leader Luo.” Wen Siyuan truly felt regretful. He wasn’t typically talkative, so why had he not been able to hold back just now, catching up with Luo Yanqing to gossip!

As a result, he got a response that was neither heavy nor light, neither salty nor bland.

”You gossiped with Group Leader Luo? Teacher Wen, you’ve known Professor Luo since day one, our Professor Luo, right? Does anything other than work even exist in his mind? It’s a known fact, yet you went ahead and hit the wall. No wonder you’re not in a good mood,”

said He Wei, shaking his head in a weird way.

”Am I that petty?”

Wen Siyuan glared at He Wei, feeling a bit embarrassed, but not dwelling on it because of a single comment from Luo Yanqing.

”Not at all, not at all, it’s me who’s being petty. So what did you gossip about with Group Leader Luo just now?”

He Wei was genuinely curious.

Wen Siyuan: ”Figure it out yourself.”

He Wei did think about it and then said, ”Don’t tell me you talked to Group Leader Luo about Teacher Shen’s remarriage?” Wen Siyuan kept silent, which clearly indicated his confirmation.

”Oh man! I really don’t know what to say to you. You know full well that Group Leader Luo avoids Teacher Shen like the plague, yet you still bring up Teacher Shen in front of him, aren’t you just making it awkward for yourself?”

He Wei babbled on and then added, ”But it’s strange, don’t you think? Ever since Teacher Shen joined our institute, she’s had her eyes set on Group Leader Luo, and now suddenly she’s chosen to remarry? Could it be that she finally realized that there’s no hope with Group Leader Luo and so decided to settle down while she’s still young?”

Wen Siyuan looked at him with a weird expression, ”Go ahead and say that to Teacher Shen’s face.”

”Why would I say our private gossip to Shen herself, the person involved? Do I look like an idiot to you?” Rolling his eyes, He Wei said no more.

Meanwhile, the subject of their conversation, Teacher Shen, rushed back to her own dormitory after parting with Luo Yanqing.

Sitting on the edge of her bed and looking out the window at the fallen leaves, Shen Yun was overwhelmed with mixed feelings. She didn’t understand why a week ago she let her emotions run wild and agreed to her parents’ arrangements for a blind date, and then suddenly, after meeting the man just once, they agreed to register for a marriage certificate yesterday, becoming husband and wife in the legal sense.

After getting the certificate yesterday, she should’ve stayed at her own home, but she made up an excuse that work was at a critical phase, not allowing her to spend much time at home.

She didn’t stay a single night, packed her bags, and returned to the institute.

Truth be told, she dared not look at her husband’s face when she left.

Enough of that! It was just a matter of neither of them being able to stand up to parental pressure, so they ended up together to get through life.

He had a daughter, she had a son; now as husband and wife, they were a complete family. That was that. As long as he didn’t mind this marriage, she naturally wouldn’t say much and would just focus on living a steady life from now on.

But... but there was still something unsettling in her heart...

Closing her eyes for a moment, Shen Yun opened them again with a clear gaze.

Standing up, she closed the dormitory door behind her with a stern expression and headed to the laboratory.

It was as if she had cleared all distractions from her mind. From that moment on, her eyes and heart saw only work.
