Chapter 46

Xu Feifei looked at Zeng Hao in shock and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

“Once I forgot to bring my wristband when I played basketball, so I went back to the classroom to get it, and I overheard something.”

"!"

"I was so scared at the time that I didn't even dare to take off my wristband. I just wanted to run away as fast as I could. The next day, I secretly observed the two of them. Apart from Nangong Ye looking very unhappy, Lin Yuan was still the same as usual." Zeng Hao carefully recalled what had happened.

Zeng Hao looked at her astonished expression, then glanced around and, finding nothing amiss, said, "Nobody else knows about this. It seems like only you and I know."

After he finished speaking, he patted Xu Feifei on the shoulder and said solemnly, "If you tell anyone else, never say that I told you."

Xu Feifei was caught off guard by the news and nodded unconsciously.

"I'm going to play basketball now, bye!" Zeng Hao said and left.

Xu Feifei remained seated, her mind in turmoil. She hadn't expected the male lead to like Lin Yuan. No wonder he'd been asking Lin Yuan to tutor him and go to university with him—it was all premeditated!

I always thought the male lead was strange, sometimes nice and sometimes mean to me, but it turns out it all depends on Lin Yuan. And he always obeys whatever Lin Yuan tells him.

But what about the female lead? When she first arrived at this school, she vaguely remembered a hint of something more between the male and female leads, and the girls in her class thought so too. The male lead's feelings for the female lead were genuine!

What on earth is going on? Things seem a bit chaotic.

"Feifei!" Lin Yuan returned from outside and saw Xu Feifei sitting in her seat with a bewildered expression, staring blankly ahead.

When Xu Feifei saw her return, she subconsciously looked down to find a book to hide her current emotions. She awkwardly smiled and asked, "Have you already discussed the competition with the teacher?"

"It's settled, the competition will be next month."

Xu Feifei nodded, glanced at Lin Yuan, and said nothing.

On the way, she was still thinking about the male lead's feelings for Lin Yuan, and remained silent with her head down. She kept glancing at Lin Yuan stealthily, but never voiced her doubts.

Finally, after stealing a glance for the nth time, Lin Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Feifei, what's wrong?"

After being caught, Xu Feifei quickly lowered her head and remained silent.

"When I came back from the office, I noticed you were completely out of sorts. Did something happen?" Lin Yuan stopped and asked.

Hearing her worried tone, Xu Feifei hesitated, looking at her as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Lin Yuan sighed almost imperceptibly and continued, "It's related to me, right?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Feifei's eyes widened immediately, as if asking, "How did you know that?"

"Since it concerns me, can you tell me what happened?" Lin Yuan continued to coax.

After thinking it over and over, Xu Feifei stammered, "Uh... well, I heard that Nangong Ye confessed to you before, is that right?"

Lin Yuan frowned upon hearing this and asked unhappily, "Who told you that?"

Xu Feifei shook her head and said, "Really?"

The two stared at each other, a gust of wind blew, ruffling their hair and fluttering the hems of their school uniforms. Time seemed to stand still, and even the people in the distance seemed to freeze.

After a long while, Lin Yuan withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes, and said, "Mm."

After receiving confirmation from the person in question, Xu Feifei was unsure whether she was more shocked or...

"And then you rejected Nangong Ye?"

"Um."

"Wow, what was the scene like back then?" Xu Feifei, who had been hesitant to speak, asked excitedly.

"I don't remember."

"Ah! So how were you feeling at that time?"

"I don't feel anything."

"Ah! I can't feel anything at all."

"No, you..." Lin Yuan suddenly felt something was wrong and looked at her.

"Aren't you unhappy?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Don't you like Nangong Ye?"

"Didn't I say before that those were things from when I was a kid? They're in the past," Xu Feifei said nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan's brows relaxed slightly.

"When did Nangong Ye confess to you?" Xu Feifei's gossip instincts were burning brightly as she continued to ask, determined to get to the bottom of it.

"I can't remember that."

"You can't remember anything? What did Nangong Ye say and do back then? When did he start showing interest in you?"

Lin Yuan replied without hesitation, "I don't pay attention to these things, so I didn't bother to remember them."

"Alright, it's normal not to remember." The male lead isn't that important to everyone.

"Zeng Hao told you about this, right?"

As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, Xu Feifei stared at her in astonishment, her face saying, "How did you know?"

"I ran into him coming out of the classroom when I came out of the office."

"Awesome!" Xu Feifei gave her a thumbs up.

“Zeng Hao told me that he only told me this, and he hasn’t told anyone else. Don’t ask him! Otherwise he’ll think I’m a traitor.”

Before she could even agree, Xu Feifei hooked her arm around hers and said sweetly, "Dinner's on me tonight!"

Lin Yuan looked down at her, her eyes filled with tenderness, a mixture of helplessness and a smile.

This minor setback passed quickly, and Xu Feifei attributed it to the butterfly effect—perhaps the male lead already had someone he liked from the beginning, someone he considered his "white moonlight." Later, due to a series of subsequent events, he gradually fell in love with the female lead, and the two got together.

First love is like a white moonlight, and the female lead is like a cinnabar mole; that's fairly normal.

While Xu Feifei was eating, her phone suddenly started ringing, and the ringing lasted for several seconds. She picked it up and looked at the screen; it was filled with messages saying her packages had been delivered to the courier station.

I counted and found there were about ten or twenty packages. I didn't think it was a lot when I bought them, but when they arrived, the notifications came in one after another.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yuan asked.

"The package I ordered earlier has arrived. It just sent me a message," Xu Feifei said, putting her phone aside and continuing to eat.

"Let's go get it together later."

"Great! Great!"

The school is large and has complete facilities. The courier station is located near the dormitory, which is convenient for students to pick up their packages.

Xu Feifei arrived at the courier station and was stunned by its decor. Unlike the small and narrow stations in the real world, this courier station was filled with shelves and piled high with packages.

The interior of this courier station is decorated in a European style, bright and grand, with shelves arranged in a staggered manner, and packages neatly placed on the shelves. There are even tables, chairs, and sofas provided for students to rest.

Xu Feifei looked at the courier station in front of her, took a few steps back in disbelief, and looked at the store name above her head to confirm that this was indeed the courier station.

He silently marveled to himself, "No wonder it's a prestigious school; even the courier station is decorated so lavishly."

"Feifei, come here and scan the code," Lin Yuan called out from the side.

"What?" Xu Feifei looked at her in confusion.

Lin Yuan pointed to the QR code on the table and said, "You can scan the QR code here and press the one-click pickup button."

Xu Feifei was taken aback for a moment, then followed the instructions and picked up the package with one click. She asked blankly, "Don't we need to go upstairs to look for it?"

"No need, we can just wait here."

After Lin Yuan finished speaking, she pulled her to sit on the sofa next to her and waited.

Xu Feifei sat on the sofa, looking around the store nervously as she watched the staff pick up packages.

Lin Yuan noticed that Xu Feifei's body was a little stiff and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"No, I'm just a little surprised! I didn't expect I wouldn't have to pick up the package myself."

"Did you pick them up yourself?"

Xu Feifei laughed and said, "That's right, it's all self-service. You find it yourself and scan the code yourself. The owner is just tidying up other things next to you."

Lin Yuan nodded, then lowered her head and thought for a moment, "Then you..."

"All your packages are here. Please check them and see if anything is missing," the shop assistant said, pushing a small cart.

Xu Feifei looked at the shop assistant in surprise, "How could it be so fast!"

"Because our store places packages together based on the recipient and the last few digits of their mobile phone number, this reduces the waiting time for customers."

Xu Feifei silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart. The packages piled up like a small mountain on the cart made her feel inexplicably overwhelmed.

"Let's go!" Lin Yuan pushed the cart towards the door.

Xu Feifei quickly followed, "Shouldn't we tell her?"

"No need, we can return it after we've moved it."

"Oh, I see. Give me the cart, I'll push it."

Xu Feifei tried to take the trolley, but Lin Yuan avoided her, saying, "I'll push it. You hold it from the side, be careful the package doesn't fall."

"Okay!" Xu Feifei pressed down on the gently swaying package with one hand, while holding the other hand outstretched to prevent it from falling.

Lin Yuan walked steadily, and not a single package fell off along the way.

Just as the two of them returned to their dormitory building, they ran into Lin Xier.

When Lin Xier saw Lin Yuan and Xu Feifei pushing so many packages, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal.

He stepped forward and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Xu Feifei looked up upon hearing the voice, and upon seeing it was the female lead, quickly said, "Thank you! But it's alright, we can manage these things."

Lin Xi'er thought she was just shy, so she said, "Don't be shy, I'll help you!"

After saying that, he took the three packages and headed towards the dormitory building.

Xu Feifei was momentarily stunned and looked at Lin Yuan, somewhat at a loss. After a while, she hurriedly caught up with the female lead and said, "No need to trouble yourself, Lin Yuan and I can carry it up."

"No trouble at all," Lin Xier said, holding the package.

No matter how Xu Feifei tried to dissuade her, it was no use, so she followed the female lead all the way.

A while later, Lin Xier arrived at Xu Feifei's dormitory door, put the package on the ground, and said, "You take the package back first, I'll go down and get some more."

After Lin Xier finished speaking, she turned and left.

Xu Feifei rubbed her temples with one hand, just about to refuse again, when the elevator "dinged" and opened.

Lin Yuan pushed the stroller out, glanced at Xu Feifei, then at the female lead, and said, "No need."

After Lin Yuan brought up all the packages, Lin Xi'er smiled and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Goodbye."

"Bye-Bye!"

Xu Feifei watched the female lead leave, never expecting her to be so kind-hearted.
