She couldn't bear to see Shen Xingmian being so gentle and caring towards others, her entire being rejecting it.
"That's settled then. You should hurry up and cling to his coattails, confess your feelings to him, and tell him how much you like him. Trust me, as long as you say it, Shen Xingmian definitely won't look for other women."
Nanzhi acted impulsively and became frightened by what the Meow Meow Machine said.
She turned around instantly and hugged Shen Xingmian; she was even afraid.
The sudden warmth enveloped him, and Shen Xingmian was stunned for only a moment before naturally pulling the girl closer, his eyes gradually brightening.
"Shen Xingmian, let's start dating?"
Happiness came too suddenly, and Shen Xingmian remained silent.
After a long while, a deep, magnetic voice sounded in my ear: "Oh."
Nanzhi: "..." How come it ended with just an "oh"?
Her eyes crinkled into a smile. "You agree?"
The man nodded slightly without speaking, but Nanzhi knew that he understood her meaning. Although she had forced him to be her boyfriend when they first met, her feelings at that time were very different from now.
When she talks about dating now, she's expressing her feelings for Shen Xingmian.
MeowMeowMachine was finally relieved, speaking in a motherly tone:
"It's been tough, but you've finally seen the light."
Nanzhi: "Why do you always side with outsiders?"
MeowMeowMachine: "......"
Nan Zhi took Shen Xingmian's hand, her eyes shining with excitement: "I heard that you have to hold hands when you're in a relationship."
Shen Xingmian: "......"
The girl's hands were soft and small, but they gave him a great sense of security.
He had never felt so relaxed in years. The two of them walked down the street, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, attracting attention wherever they went.
Nanzhi noticed that many girls were looking at the man beside her with adoration, which made her even more certain that she had made the right choice.
Since Nanzhi had encountered such an angel, she had to cherish her. Fortunately, she acted early on.
MeowMeowMachine: "You're the one who finally realized this!"
Nan Zhi doesn't yet know how she feels about Shen Xingmian, but she is certain that Shen Xingmian has unknowingly become her possession, and she will not allow anyone to covet her.
Even if she has a child, Shen Xingmian can only have one with her, not with anyone else.
"What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed."
A cool yet melodious voice rang in her ears, and Nan Zhi's face flushed. "I was thinking about having a child... no, no, no, I wasn't thinking about it. I wanted to have a child with you. Ugh, I was wrong."
Nan Zhi's words became increasingly incoherent, and she grew somewhat anxious. Even with her thick skin, she couldn't withstand the force of her own wild and incoherent ramblings.
The girl was both annoyed and ashamed to be seen. Shen Xingmian couldn't help but smile and say, "I didn't expect Zhizhi to have thought so far ahead."
Nanzhi covered her face, "It wasn't what I wanted, I didn't want it."
Shen Xingmian cupped her face in his hands, unable to resist teasing the girl. His tone was gentle and unknowingly indulgent as he said, "Alright, alright, you didn't mean it. You were just stating the facts."
Nanzhi: "..."
In front of Shen Xingmian, Nan Zhi no longer seemed like the towering figure who could shoulder the responsibility and protect her friends; instead, she was vivid, lively, and just a little girl.
In front of Nan Zhi, Shen Xingmian put away all her thorns. She was no longer the cold-hearted, emotionless machine who only knew how to work. Instead, she was full of human warmth and humanity.
Nan Zhi took Shen Xingmian to school, not thinking about anything else but the person in front of her, wondering how they had suddenly become so familiar.
"Zhizhi, I have never strolled around university so leisurely before. Today you have fulfilled a dream of mine."
Although his tone was as calm as ever, Nanzhi could still detect a hint of loneliness in his voice.
She stopped and looked at him, puzzled: "How could that be? You've been to university before."
Shen Xingmian gazed into the distance in silence for a moment, then looked at her calmly and said:
"He did attend university, but not in China." He didn't have time to wander around; he could only strive to become stronger and more outstanding.
Nan Zhi was taken aback. So Shen Xingmian didn't attend university in China. No wonder.
She held the man's hand tightly as they walked along the school's main road, smiling as she said, "Let's explore to our hearts' content today. Tonight, we can go for a walk on the playground. There are so many people exercising there; it's very lively."
Backlit, the girl's slender figure was reflected in my eyes. She was petite, yet she possessed astonishing strength and a powerful soul.
Shen Xingmian took a big step to catch up with her; his tall figure was enough for her to lean on.
As Nan Zhi walked forward, she gestured animatedly as she introduced every part of the school to Shen Xingmian, as if afraid he wouldn't understand. She even deliberately explained the uses of each part. Shen Xingmian followed behind, listening attentively.
"Tell me honestly, were you listening carefully to what I just said?"
"I'm listening, but you're talking too fast, I can't remember anything."
A man and a woman passed each other. The boy asked a question seriously, while the girl acted cute and charming.
The boy helplessly hugged the girl, saying, "You're so clumsy, what are we going to do in the future?"
The girl giggled: "With you here, I'm not afraid at all."
The two walked away laughing. When Nanzhi turned around, she found that Shen Xingmian had stopped again. He was staring blankly at the backs of the man and woman.
Nan Zhi took a few steps back and stopped in front of Shen Xingmian, saying seriously, "Shen Xingmian, were you listening to me attentively just now?"
Shen Xingmian snapped out of her reverie, her gaze falling on the girl who was a head shorter than her. Seeing her serious expression, Shen Xingmian couldn't help but smile.
"I heard you say this is a teaching building, a place where students have classes." Shen Xingmian pointed to the tall building on the left with her index finger and repeated the sentence.
Nanzhi always felt that her intelligence had been influenced by Hu Lai, so how could she say such stupid things?
Hu Lai, who had just returned home, said, "Achoo!" Who was talking badly about him behind his back again?
Thinking about the long string of nonsensical and idiotic things she had just said, Nan Zhi got even angrier and glared at Shen Xingmian, "I'm not talking to you anymore, you don't listen properly."
Shen Xingmian stepped forward, took Nanzhi's hand, and exuded a joyful aura: "Go ahead and talk, I'm listening. I promise I'll be very serious this time."
Nanzhi still refused to pay attention to him and remained silent.
"Nan, junior sister?" A sweet voice called out, causing Nan Zhi to turn around and look at the source of the voice.
Oh, what a coincidence!
Lian Chuchu was carrying a stack of books, with Lin Feifan beside her, the two of them standing behind them.
"What a coincidence, Junior Nan! Fei Fan and I are going to the library to return some books. Are you going to the library too?"
This road is indeed the road to the library. After Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian arrive at the library, they can go around to the side and reach the playground.
Nanzhi didn't want to tell her her plans and simply shook her head: "No."
Lian Chuchu looked hurt, and she shifted her gaze from Nan Zhi to the man beside her.
