Chapter 202: If Only...
When Tan Zhixu saw these messages, he felt a little guilty and regretted his careless words yesterday.
He was furious because that day, he saw a building block of the same brand as his own on Zhang Xiang's desk.
He could almost immediately tell that it was a gift from Lu Anlan.
He couldn't very well ask Lu Anlan to stay away from Zhang Xiang, and Zhang Xiang had clearly stated that he didn't like Lu Anlan, so what could he do?
Therefore, when he saw Lu Anlan's love-obsessed mind, he felt a bit disappointed in her.
On one hand, there were his own feelings, and on the other hand, there were his feelings for his younger sister whom he had grown up with. He was able to control them at first, but one day they briefly intersected.
Tan Zhixu felt like his brain short-circuited at that moment.
Tan Zhixu sighed inwardly, his face full of melancholy.
He put away his phone, didn't reply to Zhang Xiang's message, packed his things from the library, and prepared to go eat.
Let's leave it at that for now. I'll go talk to Xu Yihuan again tomorrow to clarify things.
You can't keep putting off a problem like this.
Just as Tan Zhixu was thinking this, another message popped up on his phone.
His application for a minor in management has been approved. He was supposed to take the exam at the end of this semester and receive the results at the beginning of next semester, but he couldn't wait, so he used a back door to get himself started on the management school's courses now.
The message I just heard was posted in the group chat by a teacher from the School of Management, saying that classes will be rescheduled during the upcoming finals week.
We'll move all the later classes to the beginning so we can finish them all.
A bad feeling crept into Tan Zhixu's heart as he glanced at the new timetable, which was packed full.
Tan Zhixu pressed his temples wearily, wishing Xu Yihuan were here at this moment.
Xu Yihuan would lean against him, stuffing snacks into his mouth while complaining about the teacher.
Although it's not very useful, it feels very alive.
Tan Zhixu felt increasingly nostalgic the more he thought about it, wishing he had made things clear back then.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".
It's all Fang Kerou's fault! Bringing her to tutoring all the time, is she mentally challenged? And that math professor, that old geezer never goes himself, he just bosses him around.
This matter must be clarified; he doesn't want things to end like this, with no clear resolution between him and Xu Yihuan!
Tan Zhixu finally decided to go see Xu Yihuan again on Saturday.
He had a full schedule of classes these past few days and simply couldn't find the time to talk to Xu Yihuan properly, not just a perfunctory conversation that ended in a few minutes.
Tan Zhixu opened his phone and glanced at the screensaver: a handsome man and a beautiful woman kissing under fireworks created by thousands of drones.
Their lips touched lightly, their eyelashes drooped slightly, and Xu Yihuan's hands gripped his clothes tightly. No one was looking at the camera; their eyes and hearts were only for each other.
Tan Zhixu almost felt a lump in his throat and quickly turned off the screen and put away his phone.
Even if the two of them are arguing, they can't miss class.
Xu Yihuan attended classes for two days as usual, and then went to hand over the reins to Jiang Jinnan over the weekend.
She will be in charge of the construction site next week.
On Saturday, Jiang Jinnan invited Xu Yihuan to go to the construction site together. He usually goes out to sketch during class, so he doesn't spend much time at school.
There was practically no chance of seeing Xu Yihuan.
I eagerly await the weekend every day.
The weekend has finally arrived, and Jiangjin South is naturally eager to get started.
I went in the morning and came back in the evening, a whole day's work.
Jiang Jinnan bought breakfast at eight o'clock in the morning and stood downstairs at the girls' dormitory waiting for Xu Yihuan. He successfully waited for Xu Yihuan to come downstairs at eight-thirty.
Xu Yihuan's usual habit is to get up at 8:30 on weekends.
It's just that it's not exactly close to the western suburbs from here. If I go out at nine o'clock, I can hardly get anything done in the morning and can only eat a not-so-good boxed lunch there.
That's such a loss.
So Xu Yihuan came downstairs at 8:30 sharp, and when Jiang Jinnan handed her the things in his hand, she didn't stand on ceremony.
If you skip breakfast, you'll get carsick later.
"Let's go."
The two walked out of the school gate together.
Just then, a tall, slender figure followed behind the two of them, carrying a breakfast from Yipin Pavilion.
At this moment, the breakfast bag was crushed to pieces in his hand, and he watched the two people leave with a gloomy look in his eyes.
This is Tan Zhixu, who has come from Baba.
Tan Zhixu was holding a cell phone in his other hand.
The phone screen displays the call page.
The contact person is "Baby," but the voice coming out is that of a robot.
Hello, the number you dialed is currently busy...
Tan Zhixu slammed down the phone angrily, even though the person in front of him was clearly not on a call.
So this means... he's been blocked.
After this thought popped into Tan Zhixu's mind, he became extremely aggressive.
He strode after them.
The breakfast that Tan Zhixu had waited in line for two hours to buy was now in a terrible state and was carelessly thrown into the trash can by Tan Zhixu.
Tan Zhixu remained silent and followed them in his car.
Xu Yihuan and Jiang Jinnan went to the western suburbs without realizing it.
The construction in the western suburbs has been completed in many ways. At this rate, the interior decoration may be finished by the end of the year.
This speed far exceeded their expectations, and it seems that the funds will be returned soon.
Xu Yihuan and Jiang Jinnan walked and talked, with an inexplicable barrier between them that no one else could penetrate.
Jiang Huaiyuan found out what Jiang Tingbai had done. In the end, Jiang Huaiyuan spent a lot of money to treat Director Liu to a meal, which made things a little better. However, Jiang Tingbai was restricted by his father and could only sit on the sidelines at the company.
Xu Yihuan listened to these stories with great interest, feeling fully involved.
After circling around twice, it was almost time for the workers to eat. Xu Yihuan and Jiang Jinnan squatted on the ground together and ate their boxed lunches.
"How did things go with your conversation with Tan Zhixu?" Jiang Jinnan asked tentatively.
Xu Yihuan paused for a moment while eating, but quickly resumed her normal eating.
"This shouldn't have anything to do with what's between us."
Jiang Jinnan was stunned this time, but a smile quickly appeared on her face, complete with dimples, making her look very cute.
"Just asking casually, I'm just worried about affecting the work efficiency of my partners."
"No." Xu Yihuan uttered just those two indifferent words.
Jiang Jinnan gave an awkward twitch of his lips, but ultimately didn't say anything more.
After the meal, the two of them continued to learn and explore, just like when they first arrived. During the remaining time, the foreman shared some future plans with them.
By the time the discussion ended, it was almost dark.
I checked the time and it was already six o'clock.
They didn't want to eat boxed lunches anymore, so the two looked at each other and went out together.
Someone in the distance, watching the two people exchange glances through binoculars, nearly ground their teeth to powder.
Xu Yihuan and Jiang Jinnan went to the underground parking lot to get their car. This parking lot is shared with the parking lot of Tan Wenye's hot spring pool next door.
As Xu Yihuan sat in the car and the vehicle turned out of the garage, she saw the familiar Volkswagen.
For a moment, I was stunned.
But upon closer reflection, nothing seemed amiss, since it was his uncle's territory.
