Chapter 18: Teacher He Suddenly Transforms into Immortal He
Qin Guanglin discovered that getting a girlfriend really brought a lot of trouble.
"Lin, is this your girlfriend? She's really pretty."
"When did the Qin family's boy start dating?"
"Where are you going, Qin? Hey, who's this girl?"
It was just holding He Fang's hand and going to the market to buy vegetables, but the familiar uncles and aunts in the neighborhood acted as if they had discovered something new.
Couldn't they just greet like usual? Why did their attention always go to He Fang?
He pretended to be natural as he dealt with those people, feeling very anxious inside. Indeed, the progress was too fast; suddenly appearing in front of acquaintances did feel fresh.
He Fang faced it all calmly, occasionally smiling and nodding, looking not the least bit intimidated. Whenever Qin Guanglin seemed about to let go of her hand, she would grip his hand tighter and give him a warning glance.
Qin Guanglin had no choice but to quicken their pace, wanting to end this awkward situation quickly.
"Follow me and carry the bags," He Fang said when they reached the market, with her hands behind her back. It was no longer appropriate to hold hands.
Qin Guanglin wasn't used to buying vegetables, so he followed behind quietly, as a tool, watching He Fang skillfully selecting and examining produce at the stalls. She even gently pinched to test the freshness occasionally.
