Chapter 37

In the dormitory, Jiang Qiuxu was a little absent-minded. After Du Xiwei tried to start a conversation for the fourth time but failed, she finally couldn't help but ask her own question: "Qiuxu, there's something wrong with you..."

Jiang Qiuxu collapsed on the bed, covering his face and wailing: "I don't understand why Xie Yusheng suddenly asked me which university I wanted to go to——"

"What did you say?! What exactly happened? Describe the scene to me." Du Xiwei looked more surprised than anyone else.

Jiang Qiuxu told Du Xiwei what happened today, and Du Xiwei fell into deep thought.

"My mood score doesn't reveal any issues, and I can't guess what Xie Yusheng is thinking," Du Xiwei knew full well that she couldn't see the problem from Xie Yusheng's perspective. "But, I've been in contact with you a lot, so I understand you better. Qiu Xu, something's wrong with you. It seems there are too many coincidences happening between you two, and your contact with Xie Yusheng is more visible to the naked eye. Basically, everyone who isn't close to us thinks you're developing a relationship, and they beat around the bush and ask me, Wu Lin, and even the people sitting next to us. What others think isn't the most important thing. What's important is you. You're becoming more and more dependent on him, and you're caring more and more about him. I'm very worried that you'll try to get closer to each other at the most inappropriate time."

"Do you think there's something between us?"

When Du Xiwei heard this answer, she thought Jiang Qiuxu was angry and subconsciously wanted to apologize, but was interrupted by Jiang Qiuxu's next sentence.

"I do care more about Xie Yusheng's behavior and thoughts than before, but... I don't know what I am thinking, let alone his." Jiang Qiuxu's confusion was obvious.

Du Xiwei looked at her good friend. This person knew too little about interpersonal relationships. No matter how many novels he read, Jiang Qiuxu would not know how love came about. It was not appropriate to think too much about it now.

"Then don't worry about it. Don't think about what your relationship with him is. Just focus on the future and the college entrance examination. It won't be too late to look back after everything has settled down." Although Du Xiwei herself has had many romantic relationships, her situation does not apply to Jiang Qiuxu.

For Jiang Qiuxu, the most important thing at this stage is to make the most of the remaining time in his senior year of high school.

So Jiang Qiuxu maintained the status quo, not thinking about her relationship with Xie Yusheng, and getting along with each other according to her own ideas.

March 27, 2024, would have been an ordinary day for most people, but because the updated prize pool for "Luochuan" contained materials Jiang Qiuxu particularly desired, it became extra special. At noon, Jiang Qiuxu and Du Xiweimao were passionately drawing cards in their dorm room, and then… one drew 160, the other 170, both of them fully claiming the guaranteed bonus and even going so far as to piss Jiang Qiuxu off.

In the afternoon, Jiang Qiuxu and Xie Yusheng were reviewing together. She remembered that Xie Yusheng seemed to be lacking this material as well, and couldn't help but wonder how many draws it took him. Seeing that Xie Yusheng was still helping her solve the problem, she wrote something in her notebook: "I have a question. How many draws did you take to get [Green Shade Stone]? Tell me so I can borrow your fortune QAQ (I spent 170 draws to barely get one. I don't want the same thing to happen next time I draw a card) [/sad]"

Seeing that Xie Yusheng had finished writing, Jiang Qiuxu immediately handed him the notebook. Xie Yusheng seemed to be surprised that Jiang Qiuxu would pass him the notebook at this time, and he could hardly hide the surprise on his face.
