Zhao Hanzhang originally didn't plan to meet the County Magistrate of Shangcai County any time soon. First, she was still in mourning, and second, she hadn't yet established herself in Shangcai.
However, the County Magistrate specially sent an invitation to them—not to them, but to Fu Tinghan, so she had no choice but to go out and meet him.
Previously in the library, people only mentioned that Professor Fu from the mathematics department was very handsome, taught excellently, and was gentle and polite. But it wasn't until she got here that she realized that "gentle and polite" could also mean distant and aloof.
This Professor Fu seemed indifferent to everything. If someone talked to him, he would respond politely; if no one talked to him, he could stay by himself all day and wouldn't initiate conversations.
With such a personality, even if someone bullied him, he probably wouldn't mind, so Zhao Hanzhang felt she couldn't let Professor Fu go alone; she had to accompany him.
