Chapter 203 - 200: Keep Going
After the meal was over, Qin Guanglin was sweating profusely.
There was no special reason for it; He Fang had pushed the remaining half bowl of rice she couldn’t finish toward him, and he had, without thinking, taken a couple of bites. Then he realized that all eyes at the table were suddenly on him.

However, thankfully, during the course of the meal, he had got to know He Fang’s family. His sister-in-law was called Zhao Qing, and his nephew was He Cheng; only He’s Daddy remained somewhat of a mystery to him.
"I’ll do it, I’ll do it."
After they had finished eating, Qin Guanglin wiped the sweat from his brow and saw that everyone had put down their chopsticks. He quickly tried to show some initiative by offering to clear up the dishes.
"Let me do it. It’s not right to have the guest do the work." Zhao Qing declined with a warm smile, wiped her son’s mouth, and started stacking the dishes, "Fang, take him to rest for a while."
He Fang noticed Qin Guanglin was feeling a bit uneasy and suggested, "How about going out for a walk to digest the food?"
As He Fang took Qin Guanglin by the arm to stand up—almost as if she couldn’t help but cling to him—Teacher He harrumphed and couldn’t resist giving her a stern look. Seeing her giggling, he felt a bit helpless and decided to adopt an ’out of sight, out of mind’ approach, taking his large tea mug and retreating to his room.
All of a sudden, after being away at school for half a year, he found out she had quietly been charmed by someone.
