Chapter 42: Cultivating Relationships

The next day.

Su Mi has a morning class today.

She had just finished her class and came out of the classroom when she received a message from Xiao Xuanjin saying that he was at the basketball court and asked her if she wanted to come.

Su Mi changed direction and went towards the stadium.

Before I even got close, I could hear the voices of many girls cheering each other on.

Among them, Xiao Xuanjin has the highest voice.

As soon as Su Mi came in and looked at the field, he quickly found Xiao Xuanjin among the several figures moving around. He was particularly conspicuous in the crowd.

Today he was wearing a black and white jersey with a black sports headband on his head, giving him a bold and uninhibited youthful vibe. His eyes were full of evil and madness. On the court, he was like a sturdy leopard, invincible wherever he went.

Su Mi found the most inconspicuous seat in the audience and sat down.

But some people still noticed her and started whispering.

Because of the heated discussion on the forum yesterday, most students now know about her relationship with Xiao Xuanjin and think that they have reconciled.

Some of the brave ones even asked directly, "Is the campus beauty of Soochow University also here to see Mr. Xiao?"

Su Mi smiled faintly and answered with ease, "Student, it's best to focus on your studies."

At this time, Xiao Xuanjin scored another goal on the field, and there was another round of cheers from the audience.

Su Mi saw that the score gap had widened and the boys on the opposite side were obviously struggling.

One of the boys seemed to be named Meng Yuncheng.

The handsome guy with silver hair, who had talked to her before and was extremely hostile to Xiao Xuanjin.

Although he was doomed to fail, he did not seem to give up easily and continued to work hard.

Like most girls, Su Mi doesn't have a particularly strong passion for watching football, so she pays more attention to the people.

From her observation, she found that Meng Yuncheng had been secretly competing with Xiao Xuanjin. They were like old enemies who became jealous of each other whenever they met.

Su Mi secretly imagined a big drama in his mind, a man and a man...

As I thought about it, I felt that my thinking was unhealthy.

Shake your head and discard the waste.

After they finished playing, Su Mi saw Xiao Xuanjin coming down from the court, and a swarm of girls came over to give him water and towels.

But he didn't take any of them. He stood with his hands behind his back, scanning the hall, searching, and finally fixed his eyes on her.

Su Mi caught his line of sight. The two of them looked at each other from afar. Their figures faded away, and the surrounding environment and people seemed to be blurred quickly, leaving only each other.

He was high-spirited and she was extremely beautiful.

Su Mi pursed his lips and smiled, then stood up and walked down from the audience seats.

She walked straight to him, and when the girls saw her coming, they made way for her.

As soon as she came over, Xiao Xuanjin's eyes sparkled and he pointed at the beads of sweat on his head, his meaning was very clear.

Su Mi didn't take a towel, so she could only take out a pack of tissues from her small cross-body bag.

She took out a piece of paper, then stood on tiptoe to wipe his sweat, puffed up her lips, hummed, and complained, "You called me here to serve you."

Xiao Xuanjin looked at her fair little face approaching him, his throat rolling, and he said with a hint of joking, "You just succeeded, and you want to hide away."

Su Mi wiped his sweat earnestly, "No, he just complained a few words, but he still came here obediently."

Xiao Xuanjin raised his hand and tapped her on the forehead, "You want another reward?"

"Then... is there one? Look how cleanly and carefully I wipe my sweat."

Someone is going down the hill and showing off his achievements.

Xiao Xuanjin laughed, gently held her hand, and smiled wickedly, "Okay, I'll give you more advantages in the future."

Su Mi's pretty face turned red, and she raised her arm to hit him, but there was not much power, just like a cat scratching an itchy skin.

The two were flirting with each other, and Wu Cheng came over and joked, "Little school sister, no, from now on you should call me sister-in-law."

Su Mi lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

Xiao Xuanjin looked at her and said deliberately, "Don't tease her. She said she was...thin-skinned."

Just say it, why do you have to draw out your voice on purpose? Su Mi gritted his teeth. Xiao Xuanjin did it on purpose.

Wu Cheng teased, "Brother Xiao, this is incredible, you are protecting me now."

While the three were talking, two people came over there.

It was Meng Yuncheng, and next to him was a pretty and graceful girl with blond hair. |

Meng Yuncheng looked at Su Mi and took the initiative to greet her, "It's you, pretty schoolmate."

The blonde girl was cheerful and outgoing. "You must be Su Mi, right? I've heard of you a long time ago. Hello, my name is Meng Qianqian, and I'm his sister."

After saying this, he pointed at Meng Yuncheng next to him.

It turns out that she is the most beautiful girl in the department, Meng Yuncheng's sister, and the girl that Wu Cheng likes.

Su Mi responded, "Hi, seeing is believing."

Meng Yuncheng looked at Xiao Xuanjin and Su Mi holding hands, and deliberately said in a sly way, "Pretty schoolmate, why did you choose him? It would be much better to choose me. With his temper, I'm sure you will suffer."

Meng Qianqian looked at her brother's expression, feeling a little helpless, but also used to it.

Su Mi raised his chin slightly and smiled brightly, "How could that be? It's all my fault that he was wronged."

After saying that, he looked at Xiao Xuanjin with a smile, "Brother Xiao, don't you agree?"

Xiao Xuanjin glanced at her secretly. This girl was still thinking about how he had just deliberately said that she was thin-skinned. She was really petty and vindictive.

There was no chance for him to gain the upper hand.

He looked at Meng Yuncheng, his tone was not very friendly, "Meng Yuncheng, you took too many free throws today. Hasn't your brain learned to issue commands normally?"

This was a mockery of Meng Yuncheng's mental disorder, which was why he said those words just now.

Meng Yuncheng gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Xuanjin, don't be so arrogant. I don't believe that you have never lost."

Xiao Xuanjin shrugged, looking fearless.

Meng Yuncheng didn't want to stay here anymore after hearing about his losing experience. "Qianqian, let's go."

Meng Qianqian followed.

Wu Cheng kept staring at her back, with a soft look in his eyes.

A look of infatuation.

Su Mi asked Xiao Xuanjin, "Where are you going?"

"I don't know yet. How about you?"

Su Mi glanced outside and said, "I don't have classes this afternoon, but I need to go to the library to look up some information. Do you want to go?"

"Okay, you go first, I'll go take a shower and change clothes, and I'll come find you later."

"good."

Su Mi pulled her hand out of his palm, looking reluctant, "Then I'm leaving."

"Yeah." Xiao Xuanjin touched her head.

Su Mi turned around and left the venue.

As soon as I came out, I heard the voice of System Xiaoxiong: "Host, I think it's too slow for you to cultivate your relationship this way."

"Or do you have a better idea?"

Su Mi was more anxious than anyone else, but this kind of thing would not be helpful just by being anxious.

Too radical an approach may even backfire.

[I found out that his grandfather's death anniversary is coming soon, host, you have to put in some effort by then, maybe the bell will ring.]

Is he the grandfather who raised Xiao Xuanjin since he was a child?

Then he must be very sad.

"What day is it?"

[Next Monday, he should go to the villa near the cemetery early on the weekend. It was also a place his grandfather often visited when he was alive.]
