Chapter 83 Farewell
Su Mi thought about how she had exposed her unfamiliarity with the kitchen last time, and knew he was teasing her, so she deliberately said, "I think you just feel bad about the house."
"Yeah, I feel bad. Without this house, I can't cook this meal for you."
Xiao Xuanjin brought out the food while speaking, "Go wash your hands and get ready to eat."
"Oh." Su Mi went to wash her hands obediently.
When I came out, the dishes were already on the table.
Two servings of tomato and chicken risotto, seafood chowder, vegetable salad, a fruit platter of peaches and mangoes, and two glasses of juice.
Xiao Xuanjin sat at the table waiting for her.
Su Mi pulled out a stool and sat down, looking down at the tempting food. "Xiao Jinjin, your cooking skills are pretty good."
"Of course, doesn't it feel like you've found a treasure?"
"Yes, very much."
Su Mi was generous with his praise and coaxed Xiao Xuanjin into submission before he lowered his head to eat.
Xiao Xuanjin took the initiative to talk to her, "Susu, I'm leaving tomorrow. During this period, if you have any difficulties, just look for him."
As he spoke, Su Mi saw him push over a business card with contact information on it.
"Who is this?"
"You can use my people with confidence."
"oh."
Su Mi didn't think much about it. She just felt that nothing would happen, and no matter what happened, she had the ability to protect herself.
After dinner, Su Mi sat for a while and then prepared to go back to school for class.
But she didn't know that Xiao Xuanjin had also changed his clothes and wanted to go out with her.
"You...are going to school too?"
"Well, I'll be with you today."
He kept his promise and went with her to attend a freshman class.
This undoubtedly caused quite a stir.
Both of them were used to everyone's gazes.
Su Mi asked curiously, "Don't you have classes in your junior year?"
"Yes, there will be a class soon. You can accompany me."
Then, the two of them didn't separate for the whole afternoon.
In his junior year class, Su Mi saw his acquaintances He Fei, Wen Kai, and Fang Yutong.
She originally thought that they would make fun of her.
Fortunately, Xiao Xuanjin avoided them and did not go there. He pulled her to choose a seat on the other side of the classroom.
Su Mi vaguely felt that Xiao Xuanjin wanted to spend more time together with them before leaving.
We had been apart for short periods of time before, but I had never seen him like this.
At dusk, the two came out of the classroom.
Su Mi's hand was held tightly by Xiao Xuanjin, and they walked all the way to the arch bridge of the campus. The bridge spanned the clear stream, and the ancient brick and stone texture seemed to be telling the story of the years.
The afterglow of sunset, when the day ends, is like the prelude to a melodious nocturne. Above the sky, the sunset glow is like a lively musical score, playing a carnival of colors.
What is left behind is endless reverie and nostalgia.
"Susu."
"Hmm?" Su Mi raised his eyes to look at him. The boy's outline looked even more clear and distinct in the golden sunlight.
"It's strange, but for some reason this time, I always feel uneasy."
Su Mi thought about the business card he gave her, and it turned out to be this reason.
He was worried that something might happen to her.
In fact, she was also feeling anxious, but unlike Xiao Xuanjin, she knew the reason...
"Did you not get enough rest? Don't think too much. It's okay. I will wait for you to come back."
Xiao Xuanjin hugged her in his arms and whispered, "I really want to put you in my pocket and take you away."
Su Mi tilted her head and leaned against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about? I'm not your doll."
"Susu...I have always wanted to ask you a question."
"What?"
Xiao Xuanjin exhaled lightly, "Are you...hiding something from me?"
Even now he still had many doubts in his mind. He knew he could have checked it out, but he didn't.
After finding out that she was holding the fake photos, he could easily follow the clues to find out everything he wanted to know.
But when he thought about what happened in the car that day, she kept saying that he didn't respect her and was checking her privacy. Although she said that on purpose, he still heard it.
If they really investigate, wouldn't it confirm the charges she made against him?
He felt that lovers dared not hide anything, so why not just ask her directly?
After hearing what he said, Su Mi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Could it be that he knew something?
Then I thought... He is so smart that he will always find something wrong.
But no matter what, now is not the time to show off. "How could that be? Even if there is, it's because I don't think it's the right time to say it. Can you... give me some time?"
"Okay." Xiao Xuanjin touched her head, "Susu, I believe you."
Su Mi swallowed hard and sighed inwardly.
Xiao Xuanjin loosened her arms a little, then bent down and kissed her forehead, not letting go for a long time.
"Wait for me to come back." His eyes were full of affection, and he looked at her deeply, as if he wanted to carve her appearance in his heart.
"Um."
"Then I'm leaving."
"Um."
The young man's back is particularly eye-catching under the caress of the sunset. The orange-red light sets off his tall figure, which is firm and noble. Behind him is the fiery glow of the sunset, and the splendor and colors of the world enhance his beauty.
A gentle breeze blew by, disturbing Su Mi's mind and blowing away the color of the sky.
When I came back to my senses, dusk had fallen and Xiao Xuanjin had been gone for a long time.
It’s time to wake up…
*
In January in Huacheng, on a night of ice and snow, the biting cold wind was like a merciless whip, mercilessly passing across the face and piercing the bone marrow. Wherever it passed, everything shrank and trembled under its tyranny.
A few girls, wrapped up tightly like dumplings, finished their meal outside the school and trotted back to the dormitory.
When we finally entered the building, we started chatting. "Winter break is coming soon. How are you preparing for the final exams?"
"Don't mention it. We've been studying lately in the dormitory."
"It's the same in our dormitory. Everyone's been nervous lately. Even those who usually like to go out on dates haven't done so."
"Forget it, I won't say anymore. I have to go back and cram for Buddha."
As the winter vacation approaches, the school is filled with a tense yet positive learning atmosphere.
At this time, Su Mi was also reading and taking notes with the desk lamp on. She wrote seriously, and the tip of her pen made a swish sound on the paper.
Fang Yutong had already made coffee and planned to stay up a little longer in the evening.
After Liao Qian came back from taking care of Wu Cheng, she immediately joined the camp.
Su Mi was writing intently until her phone vibrated. She picked it up and saw it was Xiao Xuanjin.
It has been seven days since he left. According to the date he set for his return, which was his birthday party, there are only two days left.
Su Mi answered the phone, "Hello?"
As she spoke, she was still flipping through the book.
Xiao Xuanjin heard the rustling sound of her flipping through the pages of a book and asked, "Are you still reading?"
"Yeah, I want to review it some more."
"So hardworking?"
"Of course." In fact, it didn't matter much whether she studied or not. This identity would have nothing to do with her in the future anyway. But she didn't want to waste her time and believed that learning was endless.
"Okay, I won't bother you. I called just to tell you that Grandpa's situation is relatively stable. I'll be back on the plane tomorrow."
