Su Hao’s stress response is ultimately a psychological hurdle. When he arrives at the infirmary, he only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.

The school doctor saw that she was slightly dehydrated due to cold sweating, so he took her oral rehydration salt to replenish electrolytes and calories, and told her to lie in bed and rest.

Xu Lie thanked the school doctor, carried her to the bed in the rest room of the infirmary, sat down beside the bed, held her hand, and let her close her eyes and rest.

Su Hao no longer had obvious discomfort, but he was seriously overdrawn and couldn't get enough energy to go back to class. He just slept like this for an hour.

When she recovered, the oil painting class was about to end. Xu Lie squatted beside the bed and put on her shoes, walked out of the rest room with her in her arms, and saw Bian Ran whispering something in English with the school doctor outside.

When the school doctor saw the two, he asked Su Hao how he was resting.

Su Hao replied in English: "It's much better, thank you."

"This is not an ordinary symptom of blood loss," the school doctor explained to Bian Ran, and also reminded Su Hao, "If there are special allergens, it is best to explain to your teacher and school so that you can pay attention in the future."

The school doctor's hint is already very obvious. It is recommended that Su Hao not hide it from reporting it, so as not to cause serious consequences.

Su Hao looked a little hesitant, looked at Bian Ran, and said to the school doctor: "I will pay attention."

Seeing that she was unwilling to be honest, the school doctor shrugged and stopped forcing her to force her.

Bian Ran thought about it, waved to Su Hao and Xu Lie, and walked out first.

Su Hao and Xu Lie followed Bian Ran into the unmanned tea room outside the infirmary.

Bian Ran closed the door of the tea room and changed into Chinese to ask Su Hao: "Is it red paint? You rarely use red directly when painting."

Su Hao was a little surprised and Ran would notice her habit of detail. She was stunned for a moment and did not answer the question directly. She said seriously: "Teacher, I can paint normally, but today is just an accident."

Bian Ran guessed her concerns and smiled and said, "Don't worry, the school will not cancel your admission because of this, and this is not a serious problem. Even if there is a problem, just solve the problem."

Su Hao nodded in a low mood.

"Does your parents know about you?" Bian Ran asked.

Su Hao nodded and shook his head: "They know, but teacher, don't tell my parents about what happened today."

At that time, Zou Yueling gave up her domestic work and went to the United States to study with her. She stayed here for half a year. Seeing that her life was stable and her boarding school was fine, she finally returned to China with confidence.

It was indeed the first time Su Hao had a stress reaction in such a long time. She didn't want to make her mother worry about not having a good sleep or flying over.

"Okay, I will explain to you on Andrew's side. Things you don't want to say will be kept confidential. Go back and have a good rest." Bian Ran finished his promise with Su Hao and looked at Xu Lie, "The school doctor said it's best to reduce travel today and avoid taking a bus."

"Thank you." Xu Lie nodded to him.

Bian Ran opened the door and walked out, walked out of the corridor, calmed down his gentle smile, stood under the porch and closed his eyes, pinched his eyebrows.

Not far away, Xu Yunuo and Zhu Qing paused in a hurry.

The oil painting class was over. Xu Yunuo pulled Zhu Qing to the infirmary to visit Su Hao. He saw Bian Ran from afar. He wanted to come forward to ask about the situation, but he didn't expect to see this scene.

The two looked at each other, hesitated, and looked at Bian Ran's solemn expression and guessed: "Teacher Bian, Su Hao's problem is very serious?"

Bian Ran opened his eyes, hid his tiredness, and shook his head at them: "No, it's just blood-disiased. Her friend came to pick her up, don't worry."

"Is it a tall and thin boy wearing a white shirt and black trousers?" Xu Yunuo asked, recalling Xu Lie's appearance.

Bian Ran nodded and turned around and walked towards the teaching building.

Xu Yunuo watched him walk away and muttered in a low voice: "I'm just dizzy, why are you doing this kind of a doomsday reaction? I thought something big happened." She pulled Zhu Qing's clothes, "Do you think that Teacher Bian seems to be a little bit...however, it seems to be more caring for Su Hao than other Chinese students. When Su was so uncomfortable just now, I saw that his face changed."

"You just saw it?" Zhu Qing raised his eyebrows.

Xu Yunuo widened his eyes: "What have you seen long ago?"

Zhu Qing recalled an oil painting class before. She sat in the front row, turned her head and borrowed a pen from the back seat. She accidentally saw Bian Ran leaning against the back window watching Su Hao painting.

It was a very strange look. It was definitely not the teacher who was looking at the students, but it seemed that it was not just the man who was looking at the women.

That look seemed to be filled with a very strong tragic color.

It's looking at the person in front of you, but it doesn't look at the person in front of you.

"Nothing," Zhu Qing shook his head, "abstract intuition."

"It's so tiring to talk to you." Xu Yunuo held his forehead, "It shouldn't be what I thought. American teachers and students are very strict in controlling love between teachers and students. Direct teachers and students have that idea unless Teacher Bian doesn't want to teach anymore. Besides, Su Hao has a boyfriend."

Zhu Qing shrugged: "Who knows."

Because of the episodes of the oil painting class and the advice of the school doctor, Su Hao did not go to Xu Lie's apartment and was sent back to the dormitory nearby.

Universities in the United States do not prohibit the opposite sex from entering the dormitory building, and there are even many men and women sleeping together. In this atmosphere, it is common to take the opposite sex back to the dormitory to spend the night. So when faced with the consent of Su Hao's roommate, Xu Lie directly accompanied her upstairs and borrowed the kitchen of their dormitory to cook her stomach-warming egg porridge, and sat on the edge of Su Hao's bed to feed her.

It is easier to cook the porridge. Xu Yunuo and Zhu Qing also took a bowl for dinner. Based on the principle of eating soft-mouthed people, they generously expressed that they didn't mind Xu Lie staying overnight.

If it weren't for the fact that it was a little tired today, Su Hao would have wanted to beat the two of them who were not serious, and yelled in their ears - you don't mind if I mind!

Fortunately, Xu Lie is still very cognitive and did not accept this open invitation. He tactfully said that he would not disturb him and continued to feed Su Hao’s porridge.

This is the second bowl. Su Hao was full after halfway through the drink. He shook his head and said he was so full, so he didn't want it.

Xu Lie didn't force her, and finished the remaining half bowl of porridge in just a few bites.

Seeing him drinking the leftover porridge she had eaten so naturally, Su Hao suddenly remembered the intimate kiss last night, and his heart trembled.

She glanced at Xu Yunuo and Zhu Qing who were drinking porridge outside, and leaned into his ear and asked whispered: "Is it delicious?"

"It's not as good as you." Xu Lie replied seriously.

"..." Last year, I only said "I think it's delicious". It's like not seeing each other for a year, it's like 365 times three autumns.

Su Hao didn't like being cured by him so much that he looked at him without admitting defeat: "So do you want to drink now?"

Xu Lie thought about it and felt that the invitation was acceptable. He leaned over the edge of the bed.

Su Hao's ears moved, and he heard the sound of footsteps, and pushed him away.

There is no door in the inner and outer compartments, and there is only one partition, so Xu Yunuo faced the scene of a young couple kissing each other again, nodding and bowing to them: "Oh, sorry, I'm sorry, it's me again." She pointed to the closet, "Then what, I'll get the clothes."

Su Hao blinked, as if he was blinking the embarrassment in the air.

Xu Lie looked at her helplessly and rubbed her hair.

Su Hao spoke to Xu Yunuo in a rough voice, concealing his discomfort: "By the way, help me take off my pajamas."

"Oh." Xu Yunuo walked over and opened the closet beside her bed.

Xu Lie glanced at the side and saw that Su Hao's wardrobe was filled with simple loose T-shirts and jeans, and asked her: "Do you like wearing these now?"

He remembered that she used to wear suspenders in spring and summer.

Su Hao shrugged: "The suspender is too troublesome."

Xu Yunuo smiled and turned around and said to Xu Lie: "You don't know how many chats your girlfriend can meet every week. If you don't show off, you'll have less trouble."

Su Hao sighed and said that it was exactly this, but unfortunately, "All the suspenders I brought were in the box."

"You can take it out in the future." Xu Lie suggested, "Go to my place to wear it, I won't cause you any trouble."

Xu Yunuo let out a series of coughs: "Be careful about the impact, the dog food exceeds the standard!"

Su Hao snorted coldly: "You always have to pay it back when you come out. Did you take me seriously when you first videotaped with your boyfriend?"

Xu Yunuo threw her pajamas unhappily: "I've gone to take a shower."

Xu Lie immediately stood up: "Then I'll go back first."

Su Hao knew that he was a person who valued etiquette. If she hadn't felt uncomfortable, he wouldn't have entered the girls' dormitory, so he didn't keep him and waved to him.

Xu Lie bent down and kissed her forehead: "Go to the apartment to call you."

Su Hao nodded. After he left, he was a little bored for a moment and opened the mobile game that was uncompressed with his pillow.

After the game ended, Xu Yunuo walked out of the bathroom, confirmed that Xu Lie had left, sat down next to Su Hao's bed and said to her: "Hey, your boyfriend didn't dare to say it just now, I think there is something I need to remind you."

"Hmm?" Su Hao put down his phone.

"First of all, I either deliberately provoke discord, or my sixth sense tells me," Xu Yunuo cleared his throat, "You'd better pay attention to the teacher below."

Su Hao vaguely understood what Xu Yunnuo meant, but was not sure. He was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he confirmed: "What are you referring to?"

"You may not have noticed when you were bleeding today. I saw Teacher Bian look at you with a weird look. Zhu Qing also said that I think something is wrong. We can't both of us feel wrong. Anyway, that's what you mean, you understand." Xu Yunuo scratched his scalp, "Of course it's better that we think too much, after all, you're a little older."

Su Hao's brows slowly frowned.

*

Xu Yunuo's words really made Su Hao listen to him.

During this period, she has always felt that Bian Ran’s care for her was due to her special treatment for Chinese students, but looking at Bian Ran’s reaction today seems to be a bit abnormal.

No matter what, it is not wrong to maintain a normal teacher-student distance from teachers.

It happened to be the weekend. Su Hao originally wanted to take time to go out with Xu Lie, but she had accumulated a lot of homework here, and Xu Lie was busy preparing for the start of school. The two of them did not have enough time to spend a lot of time together and met twice when they saw a moment.

After the weekend, we arrived at the Su Haoxia School’s finale week and Xu Lie’s opening week.

Epster did not open a summer school this year, and the school started one week earlier than Gadri. The day Su Hao went to the summer school on the last day was Xu Lie's new student welcome ceremony.

The orientations of many universities in the United States are held very grandly. In addition to the daytime ceremonies, welcome parties are usually arranged at night. Although there is no strict regulation that everyone must attend the party, for freshmen, this is a key process to lay the social foundation for four years of college. So when Xu Lie told Su Hao that if she didn't want him to go and he could not go, Su Hao generously allowed him to attend.

She doesn't want to have a rush to fall in love for a while, so she doesn't want the two to have only each other in college. It's difficult for international students to be here. If they don't attend the parties or parties they should attend, they may be excluded. The unsociable college life must be very painful.

Su Hao asked him to go there with peace of mind, and said that he would find another opportunity to meet again tomorrow, and he would stay at the school to attend the summer school on the last day.

The last part of the evening was Bian Ran's oil painting class. Su Hao hadn't seen him for several days. When he met, he remembered Xu Yunnuo's reminder, which was a bit unnatural.

When the whole class was over, Su Hao handed him the long oil painting and prepared to take off the soles of his feet.

Bian Ran called her in Chinese: "Su Hao."

In Chinese, it means saying things that have nothing to do with the course. Su Haozhi was on the side of the podium and answered him in English: "Is there anything else for Teacher Bian?"
