Chapter 162: The Match
Tan Zhixu rarely experienced Xu Yihuan's initiative, and being kissed like that was far from enough to satisfy him.
He grabbed her waist with one hand and pressed her head down with the other, then leaned down and kissed her.
Fortunately, the empty classroom would be empty for the next class, which allowed them to kiss as if no one else was around.
They didn't know how much time had passed before the school bell rang, and they slowly separated.
Xu Yihuan felt a little ashamed and stood up from Tan Zhixu.
"Alright, let's hurry up and go, or there won't be any seats left in the library."
This time, Tan Zhixu didn't stop her. He glanced down casually and said very naturally, "You go first, save me a spot."
Xu Yihuan's gaze naturally followed Tan Zhixu's, and upon seeing something, her face instantly turned bright red.
"I...I...I'll go save a seat right now!! Wait for me!"
Xu Yihuan and Tan Zhixu have been spending a lot of time in the library lately.
But it wasn't because Xu Yihuan was busy, but because of Tan Zhixu.
Tan Zhixu has been busy preparing for a provincial modeling competition and applying for a minor in a second degree.
Even Xu Yihuan sometimes couldn't find where he was.
Xu Yihuan ran to the library by a limp.
They arrived not too late today, but the spot where Xu Yihuan and the others usually go was already occupied.
Xu Yihuan originally wanted to walk away and find another place to sit, but her steps stopped when the person looked up.
Xu Yihuan raised an eyebrow: "What are you doing here?"
"I came to find you. I haven't been able to contact my sister for a long time, and I was afraid she had forgotten about me," Jiang Jinnan said, sounding a little aggrieved.
But his eyes quickly lit up again.
He pointed to the computer screen in front of him.
The above is a finished PPT presentation, and it even has an anime-style layout; it's quite cute.
Xu Yihuan glanced at it casually; it seemed to be a plan A, B, or C.
"Sister, I've looked into it. Although the land is halfway up the mountain, the scenery around there is quite nice."
"Moreover, there are ski resorts and hot springs at the top of the mountain. I think it would be great if we could build a unique guesthouse there."
"But it's located near a small volcanic hill, so the underground temperature isn't low. If we use it to develop specialty agriculture, it might not be a bad decision."
"I'm a little unsure about these two, and I'd like to see what you think."
After Jiang Jinnan finished speaking, he stared intently at Xu Yihuan, his heart filled with anticipation.
He knew that Xu Yihuan was a serious person.
The reason he was willing to say so much was simply to get Xu Yihuan to look at him more.
Xu Yihuan looked at the geographical location modeling and the advantages and disadvantages analysis on the PPT with a serious expression.
After a long silence, he said, "A guesthouse, perhaps."
"It just so happens that because the space there is small, no one has used it to build accommodations yet."
"If we can seize the initiative, it may not be a bad opportunity. Moreover, the input costs of agriculture are not low, but it takes a lot of effort to break even."
As Xu Yihuan spoke, she tried to turn her head to look at Jiang Jinnan.
You won't believe it until you see it, and what you find will shock you.
When did they get so close?!
He frowned and took two steps back: "Don't get so close to me."
Ignoring Jiang Jinnan's instantly disappointed look, Xu Yihuan continued, "This location is halfway up the mountain, with a ski resort above and a hot spring pool below. There might be some problems with construction."
"We can finish the proposal first, and then take care of the rest later."
After she finished speaking, there was enough space between her and Jiang Jinnan for a person to stand.
The scent of bitter oranges on Xu Yihuan disappeared from her nose.
Jiang Jinnan's originally upturned lips pursed in disappointment.
Knowing that staying any longer would only annoy Xu Yihuan, he stopped nagging.
After replying "okay," he silently packed up his computer.
They really do look a bit pitiful.
"Alright then, I'll be leaving now."
Xu Yihuan waved her hand, her gaze falling on the book in front of her, and said nothing more.
Shortly after Jiang Jinnan left, Tan Zhixu arrived.
Xu Yihuan felt inexplicably guilty for a moment.
But after seeing that Tan Zhixu was not acting strangely, he felt relieved.
Tan Zhixu glanced at the remaining coffee in the corner; this coffee was unique to the north of the city and couldn't be found near their university town...
...
It was a month later that Xu Yihuan saw Pei Yuli again after the start of the semester.
By early April, temperatures had already risen significantly.
The Foreign Languages Club finally held its first club meeting of the semester.
The general meeting was chaired by the president, and it ended after only a few words.
Just as Xu Yihuan was about to leave, she heard the president's last words: "Students from the English translation department, please stay behind."
Xu Yihuan stopped in her tracks, and the students from the translation department looked at each other, clearly unaware of what was about to happen.
Just then, counselor Lü Ying rushed in.
The Foreign Language Association is under the leadership of the English Group leader, but the sub-departments are managed by the counselors of each college.
The tutor in the translation department is Lü Ying.
"Sorry, the teacher had a meeting, so I'm late."
"All the students from the translation department are here. I have something to tell you all today. The schools in our higher education park have jointly organized an event."
"It's called 'Showcasing AI Empowerment in English,' which simply means showcasing AI projects in English."
"This is an event organized by the entire higher education park, and we need to select a team to participate."
"Those who are interested can register with the minister."
Xu Yihuan glanced at Tan Zhixu and asked, "Do you want to sign up?"
Tan Zhixu shook his head: "I don't have time."
Xu Yihuan nodded, her mind no longer preoccupied with the competition.
This competition was of no use to her.
Lu Ying coughed twice and continued, "I've already arranged a mentor for you in the field of AI. You can ask him if you have any questions."
"Now let's welcome him in with applause."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yihuan felt a bad premonition.
My gaze passed over the tables and chairs and looked toward the doorway. The next second, a slender and tall figure appeared in front of the door.
With delicate features and a gentle smile, he looked like a very accomplished scholar.
Everyone gasped.
"Holy crap, is he that handsome?"
"No, I know him, he's not that Pei... Pei something!"
"He seems to be a professor in the lab. Wow, is our advisor that capable? How did they manage to get him here?"
Whispers of discussion continued to rise, and a smile unconsciously appeared on Lü Ying's face.
"I have two more sentences to say. You can all talk to Professor Pei about the topic, find inspiration, or anything else. The specific competition requirements have been explained, and I will send them to your department head later so that she can post them in your group."
"By the way, which classmate is Xu Yihuan?"
