After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

Seeing Bo Yuxiu's sour face, Shen Yao wasn't sure if it was appropriate for her to sit down next to him.

After all, a table can seat four people, and a male teacher was already sitting next to Lao Liang.

If Shen Yao were to sit there, she would have to sit on the same bench as Bo Yuxiu.

So she cautiously asked, "Would it be convenient for me to sit over there?"

Without even thinking, Lao Liang exclaimed, "Convenient? Of course it's convenient!"

He finished speaking cheerfully, only to realize that Shen Yao wasn't asking about him.

Looking at the empty space next to Bo Yuxiu, Lao Liang also felt that they really should ask Bo Yuxiu's opinion.

He lowered his voice and said, "Teacher Bo, Teacher Shen just arrived, could you please take care of her?"

Bo Yuxiu didn't say anything, and ate a couple more bites of rice, but he moved his butt to the side, making room for more people on the bench.

Old Liang's eyes lit up, and he immediately called out to Shen Yao, "Teacher Shen, come and sit down."

Shen Yao carefully sat down next to Bo Yuxiu with her tray in hand and said thank you.

The table wasn't big. As Shen Yao picked up her chopsticks to eat, a strong arm immediately bumped into her elbow.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Bo Yuxiu move his body in another direction.

Bo Yuxiu is tall and has longer arms than others. Even though he was sitting on the very edge, his arms would still touch Shen Yao's arms every time he picked up food.

Shen Yao simply let her left arm hang down, trying to hide it behind her back, in order to avoid physical contact with each other.

The meal was extremely unpleasant.

Old Liang kept asking Shen Yao all sorts of questions, from what her parents did, whether she had any siblings, where her hometown was, to whether she had a boyfriend, etc., he was even more meticulous than when checking her household registration.

Shen Yao smiled throughout and answered "It's inconvenient to say" to all of them, which made Lao Liang a little embarrassed.

Bo Yuxiu, who was sitting next to Shen Yao, ate his meal attentively and did not say a word the whole time.

After finishing his meal, he suddenly stood up, said, "Finish eating, eat slowly," and then picked up his plate and left.

Shen Yao looked at him and found that the man had actually eaten all the food on his plate.

After preparing her lessons for the evening, Shen Yao went to bed early to sleep, but then received a call from Huangfu Hao.

"Yaoyao, aren't you home? I was passing by and brought you your favorite seafood porridge."

I'm not staying at home today.

So where do you live now?

"School."

"Then I'll bring it to you."

"No need, the school is closed, and entry and exit are not allowed at this time."

Shen Yao lied. The rule that students are not allowed to go out at 11 o'clock is a requirement for students, not a restriction imposed by teachers.

She did this because she didn't want Huangfuhao to come to the school to find her.

Seeing that Shen Yao refused to tell him her specific dormitory number, Huangfu Hao had no choice but to give up.

After making the call, Shen Yao discovered that the dormitory was without power, and the entire room was pitch black.

It's summer now, and as soon as the air conditioner is turned off, the room becomes as hot as a sauna.

Shen Yao quickly got up and opened the window of the room.

Even so, the room was still very stuffy.

Because this room is not oriented north-south, it is not well-ventilated.

Shen Yao planned to go to the corridor for some fresh air, where it was windy and cool.

Just as she picked up a small stool and sat down in the hallway, the door next door opened.

Shen Yao instinctively turned her head and saw two straight legs appear in her field of vision.

Looking up along his straight legs, you can see the man's black capri shorts, white vest, and his two long, muscular biceps.

The man habitually smoothed his short black hair, his narrow phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, and asked in a lazy yet magnetic voice, "Teacher Shen, what are you doing here so late at night instead of sleeping?"
