Ning An thought about the possibility of Song Xiaoyan seeking her out, so she wasn’t at all surprised when the other party invited her to the cafe.
She even prepared to send a message to Xu Weiran, asking him to come to the rescue.
"Have a seat!" Song Xiaoyan pointed to the seat opposite her and said to Ning An.
Ning An didn’t bother with pleasantries and sat down directly opposite the other party.
Song Xiaoyan ordered a coffee for herself and after asking Ning An what she would like to drink, she went straight to the point, "Do you know why I asked you out?"
Ning An replied, "It’s because of Xu Weiran!" She used a declarative sentence, not a question.
After all, besides discussing studies, the only thing they had in common was that guy.
And if it were about studies, there was no need to meet at a cafe.
"Yes, but not entirely."
Song Xiaoyan cut to the chase and said, "I know that this is none of my business, but since I became your teacher, I think it’s necessary to have a talk with you. I know Xu Weiran is handsome, and his appearance definitely attracts girls, and other aspects of his conditions are also excellent. It’s not wrong for you to like him, but the two of you are not suitable."
"Do you know how much older he is than you? And do you know what his academic credentials are? I’m not saying you’re not good, but you’re too young right now, and you won’t understand how important family background, looks, and education are for a person. Especially for a girl, beauty won’t last a lifetime, but education will. He likes you now just because you’re beautiful and young, but what about later? He’s a doctorate graduate from Jing University and is currently working at a research institute. His family background, educational credentials, and appearance are all excellent, and such a person will never lack for girls who like him—nor will he lack for young and beautiful girls. Can you ensure that he will always like you?"
"Have you ever thought about it? What will you do if your studies suffer because of early romance and one day he doesn’t like you anymore? He might despise you for not having enough education. He might feel that you have nothing in common, that you’re not on the same level, that you’re not good enough for him. Any of these could potentially be a reason for you two to break up in the future. Of course, the same goes for anyone else. You need to understand that love can change, but the knowledge you gain and the achievements you attain will forever belong to you."
"What does the teacher think I should do?" Ning An probably knew the purpose of the other party wanting to talk to her.
It seemed to be a bit different from what she initially thought.
The other party wasn’t trying to trouble her, but to save her.
Seeing that Ning An seemed receptive, Song Xiaoyan couldn’t help but show a trace of satisfaction and said, "First, you need to become a person who is just as excellent as the other party. When you two are at the same level, when you are good enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, when you both stand on an equal and fair position, then you can confidently and boldly talk about love with him. Even if it’s not him, you could still choose someone even better. So the most important thing for you right now is to study well, strive to get into a good university, work hard to improve yourself, make yourself more excellent, rather than getting into relationships at an age when you should be studying. Do you understand?"
"I understand, thank you, teacher," Ning An obediently nodded.
Suddenly, she felt that Xu Weiran had missed out on a treasure—a girl who was so beautiful, independent, and self-confident. He didn’t grasp the opportunity to keep her. Serves him right to stay single for life.
