Chapter 3029: Mr. Huang Has Been Waiting for You for a Year
Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiao Nian was wearing a hoodie today, probably because she did not want to attract attention. She pulled up her cap and tried to keep a low profile as she crossed the road.
It was the end of the semester, so the students at Qing University were either in the library or doing questions in the dormitory. Not many were on campus.
Qiao Nian kept a low profile, so no one recognized her along the way.
She successfully arrived outside Liang Conglin’s office and knocked on the door.
Knock, knock.
Qiao Nian soon heard a familiar voice from inside.
“Come in.”
“Reporting.”
Qiao Nian entered and saw other people in the office.
Not looking at the man’s face carefully, she walked straight to the desk, stopped, and raised her head slightly to greet the man. “Principal, I’m back to extend my leave.”
A frowning Liang Conglin was reading a document when he suddenly heard a girl’s unique voice above his head.
Realizing who it was, he looked up abruptly, threw the fountain pen down, and called out in surprise, “Qiao Nian?”
“Hello, Principal Liang.” Always patient with her elders, Qiao Nian nodded and greeted him again.
Liang Conglin had already stood up and walked around the desk to size up her from head to toe. Then, he smiled and said, “You’ve grown a little taller.”
Qiao Nian touched the tip of her nose and coughed in embarrassment. “No, it’s about the same as before.”
Liang Conglin was more concerned about what Qiao Nian said later. “You took a leave of absence for almost a year and you’re not planning to return? You still want to extend the leave?”
Qiao Nian had already thought about it. Her eyelashes drooped, and she nodded. “I’ll probably have to take another half a year off if not another year.”
Liang Conglin was undoubtedly thunderstruck and could not accept it.
“That long?”
He was unwilling to let such a good seedling waste another half a year or a year.
Unwilling to give up, Liang Conglin tried to persuade Qiao Nian. “Mr. Huang has been waiting for you for a year. You still need another year. After all, he’s old…”
“I’m sorry.” Qiao Nian’s eyes darkened, and she took a deep breath. “I have something to do.”
Liang Conglin’s words turned into a sigh and he shook his head. He knew he couldn’t persuade her, so he walked behind the desk and took out the sealed bag in the drawer. “A year is too long. I’ll apply for another six months of leave for you. Come back when you’re done. The Chinese Medicine Faculty and the Music Faculty are waiting for you.”
