- Ch. 65 - Getting Closer and Closer
Two people walked one behind the other in the direction of the school.
Jiang University was only two kilometers away. Not too far, but not exactly close if walking.
Yet both of them chose to walk without discussing it.
The sky was getting dark. Cars passed by, and the nightlife of Jiangcheng, a big city, was just beginning.
They walked side by side, not fast, at a normal strolling pace.
The distance between them started at about one person’s width but now was almost just a fist apart. With their bodies swaying as they walked, they occasionally touched.
They looked like a couple, except they weren’t holding hands or embracing.
Su Bai Zhou, wearing cute bunny ears, looked adorable if you didn’t see her face. If you did, Luo Ye could only think she looked even cuter.
Looking at her profile, Luo Ye said, “Senior, you’re really beautiful.”
The moonlight tonight was beautiful.
And the fairy-like senior looked beautiful too.
Su Bai Zhou didn’t say anything, just glanced at him lightly.
Being complimented by others and being complimented by someone you like are two different feelings.
Su Bai Zhou felt a slight joy in her heart, but she didn’t show it on her face.
She knew she was beautiful, but hearing it from Luo Ye made her feel that this junior had a sweet tongue.
She didn’t say anything, just fiddled with the little strings on her head. The bunny ears moved, reflecting her mood.
It was her first time catching a plush toy, and she had done it with Luo Ye.
Soon, they reached the entrance of Jiang University.
Su Bai Zhou was slightly startled.
The two-kilometer walk was not short, but walking with this junior made time fly.
The teacher’s dormitory’s back entrance was inside Jiang University, so they were on the same route.
Entering the school, their pace unconsciously slowed.
There was a small grove in the school.
Luo Ye had never been there but had heard rumors about it.
All from Wang Dachui, who seemed to know everything, every bit of gossip in the school.
They walked past the grove.
The grove was beautiful, but they just walked by.
Reaching the back entrance of the dormitory, Luo Ye knew it was time to part ways with the senior today.
Even though they had met yesterday, today still felt like he didn’t want to leave.
Watching the senior’s back, Luo Ye waved, “Senior, see you tomorrow!”
Su Bai Zhou looked at him, expressionless, and said, “Goodbye.”
Then she turned and left.
After a few steps, she suddenly turned and said lightly, “I might consider the fun sports meet.”
Luo Ye was stunned.
Then he looked delighted.
Watching Su Bai Zhou’s figure until she completely disappeared from sight, Luo Ye stood still, like a stone waiting for his wife.
“Is that you?”
A male voice came from behind.
Luo Ye turned and saw that it was Gao Yuming.
Wasn’t this guy Tang Enqi’s loyal follower? Why was he here alone?
“What are you doing?” Gao Yuming couldn’t help but ask.
“Nothing, what about you?” Luo Ye asked back.
This guy liked Tang Enqi. Seeing him, Luo Ye felt like seeing his past self.
“I just walked Enqi back to her dorm, now heading out.”
He was a rich second generation, so he didn’t live in the dorms. Besides, his personality didn’t suit dorm life.
Hearing this, Luo Ye looked at him curiously and asked, “How do you feel now?”
Luo Ye knew exactly how it felt to like Tang Enqi.
Her presence was perfect, great personality, beautiful. In high school, she was many people’s first love and unattainable crush.
Even though Gao Yuming pursued her, she rejected him. It was only due to Liu Bingxin’s matchmaking that they still interacted as friends.
“I feel good.”
Gao Yuming smiled, “She mentioned you. You were high school classmates, and you liked her.”
“I don’t like her anymore,” Luo Ye said.
“I know. Whether you like her or not, I can tell. But she seems a bit reluctant about you…”
“Is that so.”
Luo Ye shook his head, “She doesn’t like anyone; she only likes herself.”
Hearing this, Gao Yuming sighed, “I know, but she’s the only girl I’ve met who doesn’t care about my money. Compared to Liu Bingxin, their difference is obvious.”
Luo Ye gave Gao Yuming a surprised look.
People said he was a brainless rich kid, but was he really brainless?
When it comes to love, maybe everyone starts off the same way.
He was just pursuing his love.
Standing beside Luo Ye, Gao Yuming hesitated and asked, “If she wanted to pursue you, what would you do?”
“I said she only likes herself, so she wouldn’t give up her pride to pursue me.”
“Who knows, the future is uncertain… If she realizes she likes you, then you…” Gao Yuming didn’t finish but looked seriously at Luo Ye.
Luo Ye imagined the scenario.
If Tang Enqi confessed to him one day…
Well…
No, he couldn’t picture it. His mind was full of the fairy-like senior.
Luo Ye shook his head, “That day won’t come. If it does, someone might get jealous.”
He thought of holding the senior’s hand without her reacting.
He thought of the sharp look in the senior’s eyes when Tang Enqi picked up the milk tea he bought for her at the last meeting.
Luo Ye knew his confession day was getting closer.
Hearing this, Gao Yuming was stunned. Then he said, “That’s good. The rest is up to me.”
“Do you really like her?” Luo Ye asked, puzzled.
“Maybe. She’s the most special person I’ve met. As long as she’s single, I’ll keep waiting. Call me a sucker or whatever, but people grow bit by bit.”
Gao Yuming looked at Luo Ye.
They exchanged smiles.
Though they weren’t familiar, maybe Gao Yuming wasn’t like the rumors.
He left.
Although Luo Ye is very optimistic about him, Tang Enqi, while seemingly approachable, was very proud inside.
She wasn’t someone who could be won over with time.
After Gao Yuming left, Luo Ye returned to the dorm.
As soon as he entered, his roommates were waiting.
A game night wasn’t complete without him.
“Ye wazi, why are you back so late? We’re up against the dorm next door, and you’re our hope!”
“What? Someone dared challenge us? Let’s crush them.”
Luo Ye pretended to be angry.
At that moment, a message from the senior popped up.
Fairy Senior: Sleep early.
Seeing this, Luo Ye’s expression vanished, replaced by a sweet smile.
Wang Dachui exclaimed, “Goodness, Ye wazi, what’s with that smile? You look like a blooming flower.”
