Chapter 167 Hashtag no puppy love!

An Qinyan and An Xiulan were sitting opposite each other deep in thought. After what seemed like an eternity, An Xiulan said, “Mom, does it mean I can’t participate in the contest?”

She knew how important it was for her to have a teacher to guide her about the contest and its various rounds.

Did it mean she grew her height in vain?

For months, she did all kinds of exercises and ate what the nutritionist recommended to her.

Now she felt like her hard work went in vain.

Her teacher was snatched from her.

“No, you are not withdrawing from the contest, “An Qinyan said. If the worst comes to worst, she would call the teacher that she rejected in the first place. She had interviewed many teachers initially but none of them could come equal to Miss Qiu who was the best in her field. Last year, the girl Miss Qiu took in won the Miss China contest.

Thus, she could understand the demand of Miss Qiu.

“I will look for another teacher for you, “An Qinyan said. “Until then, prepare for the contest.”

With this said, she left the room and called her assistant. However, she didn’t get any good news from her assistant. All the teachers that were interviewed couldn’t be fifty per cent of what Miss Qiu was.

An Xiulan was going to suffer under their guidance for sure.

A moment later, her phone rang and it was Gu Yanxi calling her.

“Yanyan, do you still want to look for a teacher for little Lan?” Gu Yanxi asked. He had been using his connections to find an up-to-mark teacher for An Xiulan. Even he got worried when the Ji family pulled such a stunt. They shouldn’t have involved kids in the matter.

“Yeah, “An Qinyan replied. “I didn’t find any satisfactory person for the job. The contest is in a week and she already spent more than a week at summer camp and then at her father’s house. I wonder what will happen then. If she doesn’t do well, I’m afraid she is going to be sad.”

” I can understand your worry, “Gu Yanxi said, sharing her worry. “I will be at your place in ten minutes and I have something to show you.”

“Can we postpone work-related matters for a while?” An Qinyan asked.

“Trust me, it’s not work-related, “Gu Yanxi said. “I will be there soon.”

An Qinyan couldn’t understand what he was up to but she hoped he wasn’t coming with another bad news. She was already tired of handling both her personal and professional life. How nice would it be if she could get a long vacation?

About the issue of An Xiulan, she pushed it far away from her mind and closed her eyes.

“Meimei, get me a strong coffee, “An Qinyan said as she rubbed her forehead in pain. Her head was throbbing badly. Before she could rub her temple, she felt familiar hands gently massaging her head. He put oil on her head and beautifully massaged her head.

“Thank you, Ah Xuan, “An Qinyan smiled at his touching gesture.

Lu Xuan only smiled and didn’t say anything. He just let her rest and massaged her head.

“How was your football game?” An Qinyan asked with her eyes closed.

“Yeye might not have played on the field but he has lots of tricks to share, “Lu Xuan said as he continued massaging her head. “Our team had decided to appoint him as an unofficial coach for the time being. We will have a match with another high school and we hoped to win the match.”

“Learn to enjoy sports, “An Qinyan sighed. “Don’t always make a sport all about winning or losing. You get more life lessons in a playground than in class. So, try to let yourself loose and immerse yourself in the pleasure of sports.”

Lu Xuan coughed, “Fine, Ma. I’m just born competitive. I don’t know why I had to compete all the time.”

“I really think you can walk in your father’s footsteps by taking law in college. Ever think about it?” An Qinyan asked him.

Lu Xuan scoffed. “Law and me? I can break laws but I can’t be hypocritical enough to get people punished for breaking those same laws. Ma, I’m not made for a field that is completely black and white. I won’t call myself completely evil but I’m not a good boy either. So, I will choose a major that would let me be what I’m.”

“My children are so sensible that they worry me a lot, “An Qinyan sighed. They heard the doorbell ring and so she said, “Go, open the door. It must be your Uncle Gu.”

Lu Xuan nodded his head and opened the door to find Gu Yanxi.

“Hello, Xuan,” Gu Yanxi greeted the boy. Lu Xuan was polite to him. “Don’t tell your sister but I think I like you more than her and my stiff nephew.”

“Uncle, you should think twice before speaking, “Gu Shangyan scoffed as he heard what his uncle said. “I might not be filial to you in the future.”

“As if you are now, “Gu Yanxi snorted.

Gu Shangyan, of course, ignored his uncle and walked ahead with his arm around Lu Xuan’s shoulder.

“You are walking as if it’s your home, “Gu Yanxi commented.

“Well, it would have been if your efforts were sincere enough, “Gu Shangyan retorted.

“You are saying as if you have a girlfriend, “Gu Yanxi said while rolling his eye.

“I can get several but I don’t have one, “Gu Shangyan said while shrugging.

“Uncle Yanxi, don’t teach Yan Gege wrong things, “An Xiulan said. She was standing there with her hands on her waist. “Puppy love is harmful for the well-being of students. As an ambassador of Hashtag no puppy love, I can arrest you.”

“Child, what has love taken from you?” Gu Yanxi sighed. “Don’t you want your Uncle Yanxi’s life to be filled with spring?”

An Xiulan pursed her lips.
