At the age of 38, he went to college and his children were classmates.

Sanjiang University.

The number of people registering on the second day was much lower than on the first day.

Freshmen are full of anticipation and longing for university life, and unless there are special circumstances, they usually rush to register on the first day.

Therefore, the freshman reception booths of each department were deserted at this moment. Some of the student union members in charge of welcoming the new students were playing on their phones, while others were chatting in twos and threes.

The welcoming reception area at the medical school.

Fang Xiaoya and her roommate Zhu Ying were discussing what to have for lunch. Both of them were members of the student union and were responsible for welcoming new students.

"Hey, Old Shen!"

Fang Xiaoya glanced at Shen Qiushan unintentionally and spotted him walking towards her.

She quickly smoothed the stray hairs behind her ear, straightened her collar, and smiled brightly.

Zhu Ying, standing to the side, discreetly used her phone as a makeup mirror to quickly touch up her lip gloss.

After adding Shen Qiushan on WeChat last time, Fang Xiaoya wasn't the only one among Lin Jiayu's roommates to send him WeChat messages during the holidays.

Zhu Ying also posted something similar, but she was more subtle, just a tentative probe.

Seeing that Shen Qiushan had no intention of chatting with her any longer, she decided not to make a fool of herself and planned to find another opportunity after school started.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity came so quickly.

"Old Shen, what brings you here?"

"They're not looking for me, are they?!"

Fang Xiaoya greeted him with a smile, her intention to win over Shen Qiushan was clear.

It can be said that Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone.

Fang Xiaoya stopped pretending and openly expressed her attitude.

"Stop fooling around, I'm here to report for duty."

Shen Qiushan turned to the side and waved to Xu Pipa, who was walking behind him.

Fang Xiaoya then noticed that there was a little mushroom-headed boy following behind Shen Qiushan.

"Hello, senior, my name is Xu Pipa."

"Freshmen majoring in clinical medicine."

Xu Pipa stepped forward and introduced herself.

"Xu Pipa, you've finally arrived."

"You're the only one left who hasn't registered for the clinical medicine major."

Zhu Ying took over the conversation and introduced herself with a smile: "My name is Zhu Ying, and I major in stomatology."

"You can just call me Sister Ying."

"My name is Fang Xiaoya, you can just call me Sister Xiaoya."

Fang Xiaoya also gave a self-introduction.

"Hello, Sister Ying, hello, Sister Xiaoya..."

Although Xu Pipa is not good at socializing, she still greeted him politely.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two sides began the new student registration process.

Shen Qiushan had previously spoken with Vice Principal Liu about giving Xu Pipa a special quota for students from impoverished families.

This isn't exactly giving preferential treatment, because Xu Pipa's qualifications perfectly match; it's just that giving prior notice can save a lot of unnecessary trouble and procedures.

For students from impoverished families, Sanjiang University has a policy of tuition reduction or exemption. In other words, Xu Pipa does not need to pay tuition fees, but only some miscellaneous expenses such as purchasing bedding and military training uniforms.

Furthermore, Sanjiang University regularly provides meal subsidies to students in financial difficulty. The money is directly deposited into their meal cards, and there is no need for any grand selection process, which is very humane.

After completing the relevant procedures, Shen Qiushan, who already had experience, drove Xu Pipa directly to the girls' dormitory building.

Fang Xiaoya and Zhu Ying naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity to get to know Shen Qiushan, so they accompanied him throughout the process and ended up riding in Shen Qiushan's Wenjie M9.

"Old Shen, why are there so many pillows in the car?"

Fang Xiaoya, sitting in the second row, pointed suspiciously to several pillows placed in the third row.

"Of course it's for use."

Shen Qiushan shrugged: "By the way, bring one back to Jiayu later."

"Oh well."

Fang Xiaoya nodded. She had originally wanted to ask if any of the pillows were for her.

But it's obviously inappropriate to ask this kind of question right now.

After all, she and Shen Qiushan weren't that close, so why would he give her a pillow?

Zhu Ying quietly searched for the price of the pillow and found that it cost 499 yuan!
This price is really not cheap.

The car traveled along the internal roads of the campus and soon arrived at the girls' dormitory building.

"Xiaoya, you guys go back and get busy."

"I can just take the loquats up there!"

After parking the car, Shen Qiushan waved to Fang Xiaoya and Zhu Ying.

"It's alright, we'll stay upstairs in the loquat house."

"Yeah, I just happened to be going back to the dorm to bring Jiayu a pillow."

Xu Pipa lives in room 307 of dormitory building 3.

Fang Xiaoya and Zhu Ying lived in 511, which was one floor above the other.

Since both of them had said so, Shen Qiushan didn't insist any further. He carried a large woven bag in one hand and a travel bag in the other, and strode upstairs.

Xu Pipa followed silently behind him.

She didn't know when it started, but Little Mushroom Head liked the feeling of following behind Shen Qiushan, because looking at that tall and majestic figure in front of her gave her a strange sense of security.

The third floor arrived soon.

Since it was already the second day of registration, there were very few parents in the dormitory building.

Occasionally, girls would be surprised to see Shen Qiushan!

The door to room 307 was open, and a girl with short hair was sitting at her desk flipping through a book called "Medical Miscellany".

Students who are able to get into clinical medicine programs are all top students in high school, ranking among the best in their grade in ordinary high schools.

So even after entering university, I still maintained the habit of reading.

Upon seeing someone enter the dormitory, the short-haired girl glanced over instinctively, then politely greeted Shen Qiushan: "Uncle, hello."

In her opinion, Shen Qiushan must be a parent who brought their child to school. Although he looked very young, it wouldn't be too much to call him "uncle".

"Hello there!"

Shen Qiushan nodded, then put the woven bag and travel bag he was carrying on the ground.

Of the four beds, only one lower bunk was empty, which was obviously Xu Pipa's bed. "Pipa, let me help you make your bed."

Fang Xiaoya tried her best to play the role of a parent.

"I'll help too."

Zhu Ying also volunteered to share the burden, of course, in order to make her presence known to Shen Qiushan.

She was actually very curious about the relationship between Shen Qiushan and Xu Pipa, and why they would send each other to register, but she didn't want to ask directly.

He thought he should first get along well with Xu Pipa, and then get to know her better later.

See this scene.

The short-haired girl standing to the side was somewhat surprised, because she remembered Fang Xiaoya and Zhu Ying.

Both of them were student council members responsible for welcoming new students, but they didn't provide her with such attentive service when they were receiving her.

"No need, I can do it myself..."

Xu Pipa quickly stopped them, not wanting to trouble the two of them with such a small matter.

But Fang Xiaoya, her "stepmother," wouldn't allow her to get a hand at all!

They won't let me do any work?
This really affects my image as a virtuous wife and loving mother in front of Lao Shen!

Shen Qiushan smiled helplessly; he was speechless at Fang Xiaoya's antics.

I don't know what got into this girl, how could she have fallen for this "old scallion"!
However, being pursued by a girl 18 years younger than yourself is a completely new experience.

"Loquat, with your two older sisters helping me, I'll be going now."

"Call me if anything comes up."

Shen Qiushan casually ruffled Xu Pipa's mushroom-shaped hair before leaving the girls' dormitory building.

After getting in the car.

Shen Qiushan glanced at the time.

He has important business to attend to today.

We need to sign a film and television copyright transfer agreement for "I Really Didn't Want to Be Reborn" with a representative of "Chenghua Film and Television Company".

Moreover, staff from Tencent Novels also came to participate in this signing ceremony.

The two parties agreed.

We'll meet at the China World Hotel at 1 p.m.

There was still one hour until the agreed time.

Shen Qiushan navigated directly to the location and went to keep the appointment.

After half an hour.

Inside a private room at the China World Hotel.

Yao Xiaochuan, manager of the copyright operation department of Penguin Novels, along with Ma Zhuang, deputy editor-in-chief of the content department, and Tao Meng, editor of the content department, arrived first.

Yao Xiaochuan and Ma Zhuang are both middle-aged men around 40 years old, while Tao Meng is a cute girl with big eyes in her early 20s.

The name Tao Meng is probably unknown to anyone in the online literature community.

However, many authors still know the online name "Wutong". Although she has only been working at Tencent Novels for about half a year, she has discovered a masterpiece called "I Really Didn't Want to Be Reborn" with an average subscription of over 100,000.

For a new editor, this is a tremendous achievement!
After taking their seats in the private room.

Ma Zhuang chuckled and looked at Tao Meng: "Little Tao, are you sure Shen Tuoke is a high school student?"

"You should be a college student now."

“He was preparing for the college entrance examination, so he often didn’t see my messages.”

"They barely reply at all."

Tao Meng was actually very curious about "Shen Tutor's" identity, so she was quite looking forward to this "meeting".

"I'm not a high school student!"

“I spoke to him on the phone last night, and his voice didn’t sound like that of a high school student.”

Yao Xiaochuan took over the conversation.

"Can't you?"

"His father should be the one who answered the phone!"

"Because he sent me many pictures of himself in class at school."

Tao Meng firmly believes that Shen Tutor must be a high school student, otherwise how could those pictures of him at school have been taken?

Did he deliberately hire someone to forge the image to deceive himself?

This makes absolutely no sense!

"Xiao Tao, you're still too young!"

"Older men are very cunning!"

Yao Xiaochuan chuckled and joked.

"That's right. Some authors are clearly burly men, but they like to pretend to be cute girls."

Ma Zhuang chimed in, saying that as the deputy editor-in-chief of Penguin Novels, he had been in the industry for over 20 years and had met countless online novelists.

Most people's online personas are inconsistent, sometimes even quite different.

The three were chatting.

The waiter suddenly knocked on the door and then walked in with a tall, handsome man.

"Are you General Manager Liang from Chenghua Film and Television Company?"

Yao Xiaochuan quickly stood up, and Ma Zhuang and Tao Meng also got up.

The man who walked in had such a good appearance and demeanor that the three of them couldn't associate him with an online novel author.

Due to the nature of their profession, most online novel authors who write every day are homebodies, the kind who don't care about their appearance.

The man in front of me is comparable to a movie star!
"No."

Shen Qiushan smiled and shook his head: "I am Shen Tutoring!"

"what??"

Upon hearing this, all three were greatly surprised.

Tao Meng, in particular, always thought the other person was a high school student and would occasionally send a message like "Go, little brother!"

To my utter surprise, the other person turned out to be a handsome guy!

Shen Qiushan's gaze swept over the three of them, then landed on Ma Zhuang: "You must be Brother Shu?"

"We've known each other for a long time, thank you for your help."

Shen Qiushan had always thought that his editor, "Wutong," was a burly man who picked his feet.

Of the three people in front of him, only Ma Zhuang's appearance was the most fitting!
