高松年想不到一个说谎者会这样泰然无事；

高松年忙劝他不要走，他夫人的事下学年总有办法。

Kao Sung-nien quickly urged him to stay , saying that next school year he would work out something for his wife .

高松年自己说，这是他的秉公办理，决不为未婚夫而使未婚妻牵累－－

Kao himself asserted that he was only acting out of fairness and would not make the woman suffer because of her fianc é .

高松年想这年轻人多嘴，好不知趣，只说：“今天所讲的话，希望各位严守秘密。”

因为部视学说，在牛津和剑桥，饭前饭后有教师用拉丁文祝福，高松年认为可以模仿。

Because the inspector from the Ministry had said that at Oxford and Cambridge the teachers gave a blessing in Latin before and after each meal , Kao Sung-nien felt they should do the same .

高松年闻讯匆匆到教员宿舍里应酬一下，回到办公室，一月来的心事不能再搁在一边不想了。

After he learned of their arrival , Kao hurried over to the faculty dormitory to greet them , then returned to his office , no longer able to dismiss the matter that had been troubling him for the past month .
