The Proust Effect

When Huo Qing went to give a lecture at Haicheng University, his car was forced to stop by a handsome young man crossing the campus road. The sudden stop sent Huo Qing lurching forward.

The boy was clearly trying to scam him. He hadn't even touched the car, yet he was already lying on the ground.

With no other choice, Huo Qing told his driver to take him to the hospital. He looked down at the boy resting softly against his shoulder, his thoughts in turmoil.

Su Yanqiu had once again forgotten to eat while working on his thesis and passed out from hunger.

When he woke up, he found himself in a luxurious hospital room, with a cold, strikingly handsome man sitting beside him. The man handed him a card and said, "A night in a VIP room at St. Martin Hospital costs 22,000. Just charge it to this card. No cash."

Su Yanqiu stared at the man's face, unable to say a word.

The boy was stunned. Huo Qing clicked his tongue softly. "I'm kidding. You're awake, so get up. I'll have my driver take you back to school."

Huo Qing shook out his black coat and headed out first. Su Yanqiu froze for a moment, then hurried after him and grabbed the hem of his coat.

"Sir, please wait. I have something for you."

Huo Qing glanced down at the blue card he held out. "A student ID?"

Su Yanqiu nodded. "With this card, your car can enter the campus directly, and you can park for free in the lot beneath our law school building."

Perhaps to make the most of Su Yanqiu's student ID, Huo Qing's Bentley did indeed come to park beneath the Haicheng University Law School building regularly.
