When Yu Han transferred to high school in Singapore, she became close with someone on a social media app. His account name was Qiny, and he explained that his Chinese name was "Qin Yi."
...Chapter 47: Meet Qin Yi's roommates at university. [Happy Mid-Autumn Festival] Landing...
Obviously, he hadn't thought of this as the reason. Qin Yi looked at the person with a smile for a long time.
Yu Han felt so hot all over under that gaze, and her breathing was hot, like a patient with a fever on a snowy night.
She stole a glance at him.
Qin Yi suddenly leaned in closer, and as her heart pounded, he said, "Why don't you just tell me? I'm not that... well, I mainly want to be open and aboveboard with our Hanhan."
Yu Han completely melted, covered her face and sank her head onto his shoulder.
Qin Yi laughed out loud.
He put his arm around her and walked back.
Yu Han was very scared. She huddled behind him with her head down, and peeked out from the corner like a thief.
Seeing that she was completely afraid to leave, Qin Yi took the things back first and asked a passing waiter, "Two girls just came to eat. Where are they?"
"Oh, now we need to queue up. There are too many people in the queue and they don't want to wait, so they left."
Qin Yi nodded, turned around and went back to bring his little ancestor back. "He's gone. He's not in the store anymore."
Yu Han breathed a sigh of relief.
She sat down and took two bites of the cold dish. After waiting for a while, no one came to get her some food.
Yu Han thought that he shouldn't let her fish it out by herself, as her hand wasn't fully healed yet.
And no one was seen holding chopsticks.
She glanced at him curiously.
Only then did I realize that his eyes were not on the table at all, but were looking towards the restaurant entrance.
Following his gaze, Yu Han discovered a beautiful woman in the distance. She was wearing the school uniform of Lanzhong, and her long straight black hair was very eye-catching.
Yu Han pursed her lips and said, "Wow, I see a pretty girl from the same school."
Qin Yi suddenly turned around: "What?"
Yu Han repeated word for word: "I saw a pretty girl from the same school."
As Qin Yi opened his mouth, three or five people appeared in front of the dining table.
She was startled and subconsciously shrank into Qin Yi's arms.
However, in the eyes of several people, this action was so sharp that it was enough to kill someone.
After Yu Han read it carefully, she realized that it was someone Qin Yi knew, not hers. Shen Ze and the others...
She forgot to react and just leaned on Qin Yi's shoulder, staring blankly at them four, eight, and twelve times.
Qin Yi's face looked a little bad, thinking that there were too many uninvited guests today: "What for? We are going to eat."
Han Zhou took a deep breath and pointed at him: "I said you said you didn't want to go to the dinner party for no reason. Something happened, something big. I thought your sister was back, but you..."
Qin Yi was afraid that he would say the word "Jin Wei", but fortunately he didn't. In the little princess's cognition, sister was the school beauty sister she had met and praised for her beauty.
"No, little princess, why are you in the country at this time?" Shen Ze asked her in disbelief.
Yu Han grinned, finally coming to her senses. She sat down quietly and kept a distance from Qin Yi, otherwise it would be embarrassing in front of acquaintances: "I, I have already graduated."
Shen Ze: “I know, but haven’t you taken the college entrance examination yet?”
Yu Han nodded: "Next month, yes, there are still tasks."
"So you came to see him?" Lu Yuxing pointed at Qin Yi. "He stood us up, saying something happened at home and he had to go back for dinner today."
“…”
Yu Han didn't know they had an appointment. Oh my god, she said weakly with shame: "Are you having a dinner together? I'm sorry, can it be tomorrow? Let him eat with you tomorrow. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Qin Yi interrupted her directly and coldly: "Ignore them."
They: "..."
Han Zhou immediately told the more sensible little princess, "We agreed to have a meal together. He said he's been skipping classes lately and we won't be able to see each other anymore. We agreed to have dinner today."
“…”
Yu Han really felt that he had committed a sin. He didn't go to class because of her, and he didn't go to the dinner party because of her.
At first, Qin Yi probably didn't know that she would be back a week early. The concert was next weekend. He thought that having dinner a week in advance would be just right. Who knew that she would be back a week early? This made him stand up his classmate.
They have to attend evening self-study classes every day and don't have much time to eat, so the dinner can only be arranged on Saturday night. I don't have to go back to school that night, so I can't have dinner with them in advance.
Blame her, she was only concerned about coming back to play with him and didn't consider whether he had time to accompany her.
She looked at Qin Yi with a guilty look on her face: "I'm sorry..."
Qin Yi held her in his arms.
They: "..."
The sound of inhalation broke the sound of the dining table in the corner, even covering up the sound of the soup boiling.
Qin Yi looked at him unkindly: "Why don't you just sit down and leave?"
“…”
They turned around and left quickly.
The light in front of her eyes improved, but Yu Han shyly buried her face in Qin Yi's arms.
"Wow, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I disrupted your plans."
"It doesn't matter. Even if they don't go to school, they still play basketball every day. They are just fragile, just like they are separated for ten years."
“…” She suppressed her laughter and looked up.
Qin Yi helped her sit down and said, "Let's eat. You are a bunch of ignorant people. You have delayed my Hanhan so much that she is almost starving to death." He glanced at the time on his phone. It was already seven o'clock.
Yu Han sat down and prepared to eat.
As expected, Qin Yi's first thing was not to take chopsticks, but to take a spoon and scoop the vegetables from the boiling soup pot.
She scooped out a small bowl of her favorite meat, vegetables, and seafood.
Yu Han waited happily, and the smell was so delicious~ She was very hungry.
After finishing her work, he casually threw two pieces of green vegetables into his bowl. Yu Han thought it was a little too little. Then her eyes inadvertently noticed his small bowl and found that it was full of... onions, cilantro, garlic...
She was surprised and suspected for a moment that she had taken the wrong one. She immediately looked down at the bowl in front of her, but it was correct, she had already taken a bite.
She tilted her head and asked, "Why is there this in your bowl too?"
"Well, try it."
"Ah, don't try it, go get a bowl of something you like."
"There's something I like underneath, and there's green onions on top."
Yu Han touched her chin and finally surrendered: "Okay, then you try it. I wonder if you will stop loving me after trying it and think I'm a pervert for eating this."
Qin Yi laughed, and after a while, she had already eaten most of the food in the bowl.
As he picked up some food for her, he said, "Our Hanhan is the cutest, who wouldn't love her?"
Yu Han: "Is this the opposite of hate?"
"Um?"
Qin Yi didn't react at first, but after a while she remembered that during the Spring Festival last year, when she returned to China, they had a similar chat on Instagram.
She said she would not hate him, but would miss him. He asked, is the antonym of hate the same as miss?
Today we finally got the correct answer.
The little ancestor really holds a grudge.
He smiled and said, "That's for you to define. I can't define it."
"snort."
After picking up the vegetables for her and was about to try the so-called cilantro himself, Qin Yi suddenly thought of something because of this antonym. They had made an appointment to go to the next city to watch a concert next weekend.
"Hanhan, have you booked a hotel in the next city?"
"Decided~" She took a bite of the beef and thought the restaurant was delicious. No wonder it was so crowded. "I've made all the arrangements. I'm quite experienced in travel."
Qin Yi: "So, how many rooms did you book?"
"one."
“…”
Yu Han turned her head to meet his hesitant eyes and explained calmly, "I booked a suite with many rooms."
Qin Yi: "I know, but..." He lowered his head and approached her, whispering something.
Yu Han was stunned, then surprised, and then her watery eyes widened: "Ah, really? But this is how I always live abroad, always living with classmates."
“The opposite sex is different from the same sex.”
Yu Han's cheeks flushed quietly, and she immediately took out her phone: "Then I'll book another one, in case someone doesn't let us stay that night and we have to sleep on the street."
Qin Yi nodded, then watched her book a standard room.
He raised an eyebrow and instructed, "Just order a single bed, Hanhan."
Yu Han: "That's not a place to stay. Just book it casually. We'll check in separately later, and then we'll stay in the same room late at night."
“…”
Qin Yi's expression showed a hint of shock. She arranged it this way? Should I say the little princess is smart, or...
But after hesitating for a moment, he said, "How about we get two business suites? Hanhan, we can live separately."
"Why? We live separately even though we live in a suite." She lowered her head a little shyly and buried her head in her bowl of coriander and ate it with great concentration.
Qin Yi reached out to lift her scattered hair, and said as he worked: "This is different. In a big room, it is easy for the small room to get in. It's different when the rooms are separated."
"Go in? You go into my room?" She raised her eyebrows lazily, her tone full of strangeness.
“…” Qin Yi couldn’t say it.
Yu Han said naturally, "We live together so that it's convenient to get in. Living in other rooms is troublesome, and you have to swipe your card to get in."
"..." Qin Yi said: "What I mean is, it's not you who invites others in."
"Come here uninvited? Are you planning to do something bad?"
"..." Qin Yi took a deep breath and said, "You've been an immigrant for too long and your Chinese has deteriorated. Hanhan, don't use the wrong words."
Yu Han said bluntly, "That's exactly what you meant. How could I back down? What else do you mean?"
“…” That’s what I mean, but it’s better to say it more tactfully.
Yu Han suddenly approached him, blinked, and teased: "How strange, are you a bad person?"
He threatened her: "I could be."
“…”
Yu Han immediately brought out her old excuse: "Then why not when you were in Florence? Back then, I was half dead and powerless."
"People change." He went to get some food for her helplessly.
Yu Han: "What do you want to change it into? Change hate into its antonym? That way we'll be in sync."
“…”
Qin Yi dropped the spoon and went to hold her down to clean up.
She screamed and laughed softly in his arms.
Qin Yi didn't discuss it and directly ordered: "Cancel the room, I will make the reservation."
The little princess blinked her pitiful big eyes, tears welling up in her eyes: "No, wuwuwu, I'm afraid of ghosts."
“…”
There is really no other solution.
Qin Yi thought that if it really didn't work out, he would just stay in the standard room, which had two beds. He was really worried that she would come back and act like a spoiled brat and ask to stay in the same room with him.
That's completely screwed.
Because many times, he couldn't do anything to her.
The two of them had their meal until almost ten o'clock.
The peak hours for restaurants have passed, but the commercial streets are bustling with people.
Qin Yi accompanied the little princess for a stroll. She was holding a string of candied haws beside him, eating and humming a song.
It’s different after graduation. I was studying so hard a while ago, but now I’m like a little angel, smiling all night long.
If you listen carefully, you will find that it is a new song released this year, called Yi Ge Ge.
There are some lyrics in it that are ambiguous and romantic.
He held her in his arms and gently pinched her little face.
The little princess, biting the candied haws, puffed up her cheeks and asked vaguely, "What are you doing?"
"I found that my daughter Hanhan is also suitable to be a big star. She sings sweetly."
"Really? Then I'll make my debut. I'll reveal a story about my first love every day, and I'll be famous in a few days."
“…”
Qin Yi laughed and turned his head away to laugh.
Yu Han pulled him aside to discuss the debut plan: "How about it?"
Qin Yi turned around and asked: "After we become famous, will we go public?"
Yu Han frowned, "That's impossible." She stood with him in the middle of the busy commercial street, holding a candied strawberry, and said very seriously, "Haven't you heard of going ashore and killing your loved one first?"
"..." He raised an eyebrow, "So? What about you?"
"Celebrities are even more so. They're so famous, who would date an ordinary boyfriend? They'd definitely dump him right away."
“…”
Qin Yi held her in his arms and continued walking, "You didn't hesitate at all?"
"What good is there in hesitation?"
"For example, your boyfriend obviously has a bright future. If you can't make it in the entertainment industry, you can always come back and work for me."
She laughed.
Then she said, "Okay, then I won't kick you. I'll just tell everyone I don't have a boyfriend, but actually my relationship with my boyfriend is as strong as gold."
"Don't debut, I don't trust you. If you don't debut, you will always be mine."
She couldn't help laughing, "But you said I could do it."
"Well, just sing it to me."
"Woo woo woo." She slipped away from his arms and ran down the commercial street.
"Don't run, be careful."
Qin Yi chased after him with big strides, and after three meters, he grabbed the man and held him in his arms, "Your hand isn't healed yet, little ancestor."
"It's okay, it's okay."
"No, let's walk slowly and obediently."
Qin Yi held her tightly in his arms. In the past few years, when she came back, he was afraid that she would get bumped even when he held her in his arms. Now he had made a solemn promise to her parents, so how could he let her do this?
After leaving the commercial street, Qin Yi took a taxi to take her back to her home in the city.
It's about half an hour's journey.
By then the little princess was already sleepy, so Qin Yi watched her go home before going back.
Yu Han fell into bed and fell into a deep sleep right after washing up, forgetting to say good night to someone. Fortunately, the people over there probably guessed that she had been on the plane for a whole day and couldn't bear it anymore, otherwise they would have been worried to death.
It was already noon when she woke up the next day. Qin Yi told her on WeChat that he had finished lunch. Yu Han ordered some takeout and ate it, then ran out to meet him.
At the Starbucks near the exhibition center.
Qin Yi wanted to go find her, but she didn't want to, so she took a taxi and went there by herself.
I saw him at the door of the store from a distance.
There is no class today, and the boy is wearing a black windbreaker, black from head to toe. The wind blows his hair in front of his forehead, revealing his very fair skin and upturned peach blossom eyes.
But he wasn't the only one there.
There were two tables placed in the open air at the entrance of Starbucks. Qin Yi was leaning lazily in a rattan chair closer to the door, facing a boy and a girl.
The girl's body was half blocked by Qin Yi, so her face could not be seen clearly. All that could be seen was that she had two youthful low ponytails and was wearing a down jacket.
I don’t know what the three of them were talking about, the boy laughed and the girl laughed too.
As the taxi approached, the girl picked up her coffee, said something, then waved to them and left.
The boy left quickly too.
I guess he is his classmate and they met by chance.
When the car stopped, Yu Han saw Qin Yi holding a cigarette box and a lighter in his hand. When he was about to take out a cigarette, his eyes fell on the taxi.
He immediately put the things away, raised the corners of his eyes, and a hint of smile appeared in his pupils.
He stood up, took her small schoolbag, helped her out of the car, slammed the door, and Qin Yi hugged her into the store.
"Who are you talking to here?" she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Someone from our class came to buy coffee and we met by chance."
"Oh. Is that the girl from the pool hall?"
"No," Qin Yi immediately denied, explaining, "The girl is our class monitor, and the other one is also a class leader of some kind. They were just chatting about school matters and asked me for advice."
"Oh~"
There are usually not many people in the Starbucks near the school on weekends. People don’t want to come here and feel the oppressive atmosphere. There are only a few working people working on their computers.
The sound of typing on keyboards filled the air on this winter afternoon.
Qin Yi found a seat in the corner, then went to the counter to get two cups of coffee that had been ordered earlier and placed them on the table.
Yu Han had already taken out her practice notebook and tablet.
Qin Yi sat down next to her instead of sitting in the independent rattan chair opposite the sofa.
Yu Han thought about how they didn't sit separately at dinner last night, so she just pretended nothing happened.
Qin Yi brought the coffee to her and took her test papers to look at them. They were history and mathematics.
"Hanhan, what major do you want to apply for?" Qin Yi found that he only knew that her goal was the National University of Singapore. Recently, she was considering other majors because of lack of confidence, but he still didn't know what she liked specifically.
He only knew that she was very strong in English and had some problems with math, but they were not big problems. People with poor academic performance would not be able to rank in the top 50 in the grade.
Yu Han said, "Law."
"Law?" Qin Yi was a little surprised. He tilted his head to meet the little princess's eyes. "You want to study law."
"Hmm. I can't find any majors at national universities that I'm particularly interested in," she said, giving an example. "Economics, I'm not a big math guy, so I can't even consider it. Psychology, sociology, business and finance aren't my cup of tea either. Computer science is definitely not for me either. And let alone science programs, they're only for people like you who win so many awards."
So after looking around, I decided that law was the right path for me.”
Qin Yi had considered applying to this school before, so he carefully researched a lot of relevant information about the program. He said, "Law and medical school are the most difficult to get into this school. You need at least 4 As in A-Level."
"Wow, I know." She frowned, her left hand resting on her chin, her eyes lost in thought, "So I need to consider accepting other schools. At least I have to apply to several other schools at once."
Qin Yi put his arm around her shoulders and said, "It's okay. I just said that if you like this, you'll have to work harder, but it's no big deal."
"Really?" She tilted her head.
"It's true, 100% true." Qin Yi looked at her math paper. "Have you checked what you need to take to apply for A-Level law?"
"I checked. English, history, math..." She counted on her fingers the three subjects she had to take, and three auxiliary subjects that she had to understand, such as economics. She didn't have to worry about the language. After all, she was a foreigner in Singapore, and Chinese was considered a foreign language. She also knew a little German and Malaysian. Secondly, she also needed to understand some social sciences.
She has basically made preparations.
As for the main exam subjects, there was no need to worry about English, as she was very strong. She could recite the required English literature by heart, which was of great help in the law exam for a national university. She was also good at history, but the problem lay in mathematics. She had been studying hard in high school for two years but could never get the top score, which made her very depressed.
When Qin Yi heard this, he felt that there was nothing wrong with her grades. She felt that her recent poor performance in final exams was also related to psychological pressure and also the problem with her hand.
He hugged her and began to explain her wrong questions.
It was the last weekend of November, in the afternoon, the sky was cold and there was no sunlight. In the corner of the coffee shop, the window reflected the golden ginkgo tree at the door.
The little princess, holding her chin to her hand, read the questions seriously and attentively, occasionally glancing at the boy who was explaining them to her.
His voice was very pleasant, like water flowing over jade, murmuring and trickling past her ears. It was so close that it made her heart itch, and it was hard for her to be distracted.
She writes slowly and her hands are weak, but her handwriting is beautiful. She writes slowly, stroke by stroke, as if she is creating a work of art.
He watched her solve the problem patiently, and pointed out any mistakes she made with his finger.
Each section of that hand was slender and well-proportioned. It pointed at the black test questions and tapped the paper lightly. Although she made a mistake, Yu Han also felt that moment was pleasing to the eye. She really wished she could make a few more mistakes and watch his familiar movements repeat themselves a few more times.
But she still put learning first and said, "Why don't you wait until I finish writing it all, so I can know where I went wrong."
"Studying is for the correct answer, not for knowing where you are wrong. When you can know the correct answer in time, it is meaningless to get the wrong result. Besides, you can't write by hand, so why waste all this energy?" He changed a piece of draft paper for her.
Yu Han was stunned, pondering the essential meaning of this sentence - in order to get the correct answer, there is no need to know where the mistake is.
Because if you turn in time, you won't make a mistake. If you remember the correct answer, you will understand the correct meaning, and there will be no mistakes later.
Yu Han was surprised and realized that the success of the top students was also because they knew what they wanted in the end and did not care about or worry about what they encountered along the way?
They never waste any time.
She started writing a new one, listening to his analysis, thinking about it herself, and rewriting the solution process.
By the way, Qin Yi leaned close to her ear and whispered, "My Hanhan is amazing! She's almost the first in her grade."
She was so shy that she hid behind the glass.
Qin Yi's phone vibrated. He touched her head and asked her to write while he looked at his phone.
After about three minutes of silence, Yu Han heard him say, "Hanhan, how about I introduce someone to you?"
"Who is it?" She was writing furiously.
"My roommate."
"I know all your roommates, right?" she said without even looking up. "I just met them last night. By the way, are you having dinner with them today?"
"No. I'm going. I'm eating with my little ancestor." He said ruthlessly, and finally said, "It's my college roommate."
"Wow, you're only in your third year of high school, how could you know who your college roommate is?" This couldn't be the treatment the school promised him, right?
While doing the questions, Yu Han sighed that the life of a top student is full of foresight, and she wished she could do the questions until twelve o'clock today.
Qin Yi showed her the phone screen: "This."
Yu Han half-raised her eyelids nonchalantly. On the screen was a familiar photo of a friendly match. Then, he pointed at the boy in black in the upper right corner.
Yu Han: “…”
Ahhhh!
She glared at him.
Qin Yi raised his eyebrows with a smile: "He wants to see me, do you want to meet him?"
“…”!! Damn it, how could this person be so abominable!
