(Two-in-one)

The school anniversary celebration lasted for three whole days, but time seemed to speed up twice. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to normal classes and part-time jobs.

Wen Zhixia stretched her limbs, picked up her phone and glanced at it. Yu Mingxue had sent a message half an hour ago saying that she wouldn't be going back to the dormitory for the next two days.

It's normal for the young lady to be busy and not go back to her dorm, but now she even takes the initiative to tell her, which is enough to prove that their relationship has improved significantly.

Wen Zhixia packed her things and was about to leave when she was blocked by a male classmate she didn't know very well.

The male student asked somewhat shyly, "Zhi Xia, do you have a moment? I have something I'd like to tell you."

After he finished speaking, Wen Zhixia noticed that there were other people secretly cheering him on.

She understood, and said, "Let's talk outside."

The male student sighed and said, "Okay!"

He smiled and followed Wen Zhixia out of the classroom. All the classes for the day were over, and there were hardly any people around the classroom at the moment.

Not long after the two left the teaching building, Wen Zhixia asked, "What do you want to say?"

The male student asked somewhat cautiously, "I just wanted to ask... do you have a boyfriend?"

Wen Zhixia said, "No."

The male student's eyes lit up instantly, and he spoke with more confidence: "Then can I treat you to dinner?"

Before Wen Zhixia could refuse, another male voice said for her: "Sorry, she wants to have dinner with me."

Wen Zhixia turned around and saw Shen Jiachen.

He was wearing a gray pullover hoodie and a baseball cap. Standing next to Wen Zhixia, his large size made him look particularly imposing.

The male student felt that this person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was. He nervously looked at Wen Zhixia and asked, "Then, can I ask you out tomorrow?"

"She's having dinner with me tomorrow too," Shen Jiachen said with a smile. "And the day after tomorrow as well."

The male student ignored Shen Jiachen's words and kept looking at Wen Zhixia. He took a deep breath and asked, "When are you free?"

"I'm sorry," Wen Zhixia said, "I have a part-time job, I'm very busy."

The male student looked away in disappointment and muttered, "It's just about looks, is it really necessary to be so subtle about it?"

"What's wrong with judging by looks? Just because you don't have a face doesn't mean you can be angry at others for having one," Shen Jiachen retorted calmly. "People can't have double standards."

Wen Zhixia couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.

Upon hearing this, the male student turned around and hurriedly left.

Shen Jiachen watched his figure walk away, then his lips drooped slightly before he turned to look at Wen Zhixia.

Just then, Wen Zhixia was also looking at him: "Why are you here?"

Shen Jiachen said, "I went back to school to take care of some things, and since you were probably going to the coffee shop soon, I sent you a message."

Did you send a message?

Wen Zhixia took out her phone. After a short pause, Shen Jiachen's message popped up. It was from five minutes ago, when that male classmate had just started talking to her.

Shen Jiachen asked, "Is that person also pursuing you?"

As Wen Zhixia walked out, Yu Mingxue's words came to mind again, and she replied, "I don't know, I haven't even exchanged two words with him yet."

Then Shen Jiachen appeared, and Wen Zhixia turned to look at him again: "But what are you doing here?"

"Didn't I just say that?" Shen Jiachen said, "I'll have dinner with you and give you a ride to the shop."

Although he spoke quite casually, his eyes were constantly on Wen Zhixia, waiting for her reaction.

But Wen Zhixia didn't say anything to refuse as usual. She nodded and said, "Let's go then."

Shen Jiachen: !

Why is Wen Zhixia being so easy to talk to today? He always had a feeling that she was being unrealistic.

After taking a couple of steps, Wen Zhixia realized that Shen Jiachen hadn't followed. She turned her head in confusion and saw that he was still standing there.

Wen Zhixia asked, "What are you doing standing there?"

Shen Jiachen snapped out of his daze and immediately followed, innocently saying, "Nothing happened."

He was a little dizzy.

But he didn't forget the important question: "What do you want to eat tonight?"

Wen Zhixia said, "Either is fine."

"I see you like spicy food, how about we have Sichuan food tonight?" Shen Jiachen had already thought of several Sichuan restaurants, and one of them was particularly famous for its boiled fish.

Wen Zhixia said, "You can't eat spicy food, so why do you insist on going to a Sichuan restaurant?"

"I can eat it," Shen Jiachen said. "I can eat spicy food now."

Knowing that Wen Zhixia likes spicy food, Shen Jiachen has been secretly working hard behind the scenes for a long time, and recently it has been quite effective. At least she won't be sweating profusely after just one bite like that day.

"Let's go then," Wen Zhixia said. "Otherwise, I'll be late."

Shen Jiachen followed beside her, reached out and picked up the backpack on her back, and said happily, "I'll help you carry it."

Wen Zhixia remained silent for a few seconds, then quietly took off her backpack.

Shen Jiachen: !!!

She really does have feelings for me!!!

*

Shen Jiachen drove Wen Zhixia to a Sichuan restaurant not far from the coffee shop. He had made a reservation by phone while driving, so they could sit down when they arrived.

He handed the menu to Wen Zhixia: "Take a look, what would you like to eat?"

Wen Zhixia said, "You can order."

Shen Jiachen didn't refuse. Based on his observations of the tastes, he ordered boiled fish and stir-fried beef, both spicy dishes. Finally, perhaps thinking of something, he quietly added a dish of crab roe tofu, to save face for himself.

After ordering the food, Shen Jiachen very naturally rinsed the bowls and chopsticks for Wen Zhixia, fulfilling his service expectations.
