"Hey, Teacher Zhu, what's up?" Lin Xi answered the call and, without waiting for the other side to speak, continued, "Haven't seen me for a day, must be missing me, right!"
There was a brief silence on the other end before a response came,
"Where did you go yesterday?"
"Why didn't you reply to my WeChat message?"
"You know, requesting leave is something you need to tell the teacher yourself, not have me do it for you. This isn't high school!"
"Every class at Jiangnan University is important. I recommend that unless absolutely necessary, you mustn't take leave."
"You have to understand that out of all the students across the country who want to get into our university, over ninety-nine percent don't get the chance."
"Since you've been admitted, you should cherish it!"
"Not be so casual like yesterday!"
"..."
