Jiang Jianian was always on the verge of being thirsty. He knew that if he kept asking for things little by little, it would eventually explode, but he still couldn't control himself.
Trying to quench your thirst by looking at plums only makes you thirstier.
He revealed his past wounds simply to get her to look at him more, to indulge him more, like she is now.
Time seemed to stand still in that one second.
Jiang Jianian pushed Ye Zhiwei away again, returning to her usual aloof and indifferent demeanor.
"I'm sorry," the boy suddenly said, his voice hoarse from the emotional turmoil, deeper and heavier than usual.
Ye Zhiwei was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding why Jiang Jianian was apologizing for what? Was it impolite of him to hug her?
She wanted to comfort Jiang Jianian, so she reached into her pocket and found a sea salt-flavored mint.
"A mint, do you want one? Your voice sounds a bit hoarse, a mint will help." Ye Zhiwei unwrapped the candy and handed it to Jiang Jianian.
Jiang Jianian took a mint and put it to her lips.
My dry, astringent throat finally had a cool, sweet taste.
Ye Zhiwei unwrapped another mint and put it in her mouth. "It's pretty good, but it would be better if it were sweeter."
Miss Ye began to complain that the sugar-free mints weren't sweet enough.
Jiang Jianian looked at Ye Zhiwei for a while, then looked away for a long time before saying, "No, it's sweet enough."
Ye Zhiwei: ? ? ?

On the evening of the day the trial of Jiang Yanqiang ended, the counselor told Jiang Jianian that his application for exemption from self-study needed to be submitted to the school leadership. Before submission, the academic affairs office had to investigate and verify him. He was also suspected of being involved in some subjects, which might make the application for exemption from self-study more complicated.
Some professors are quite strict and don't like students being exempted from courses.
Worried about potential problems, Jiang Jianian called Zheng Xuekai directly.
Zheng Xuekai knew most of the difficult professors in this group. Jiang Jianian needed his help, so he was happy to oblige. Zheng Xuekai was afraid that he would lose his value in front of Jiang Jianian and be turned away if he had any problems in the future.
However, Zheng Xuekai is currently very busy with his research project and may have to leave tonight. He needs to finish his work tomorrow morning and then quickly continue his research.
Jiang Jianian will probably go directly to school with Zheng Xuekai tonight.
He asked Ye Zhiwei, "When are you going back to school?"
Ye Zhiwei's class group just announced that the jurisprudence class the next morning was canceled because the teacher had something to do and couldn't come.
Freshmen don't have many classes to begin with, and on Thursdays, there are only the first two periods in the morning.
Since the only class of the day was canceled, Ye Zhiwei decided to go to school a day later.
Jiang Jianian frowned, but he didn't say anything more, only responding.
"I'm not going back until tomorrow night," Ye Zhiwei said.
Jiang Jianian tightened his grip and suddenly said to Ye Zhiwei, "I don't have anything planned for tomorrow afternoon. If you arrive early, I'll make extra for dinner."
Ye Zhiwei was immediately tempted: !
"Yes, yes, I'll be there this afternoon. Remember to make my share, I promise I'll be there!" Ye Zhiwei was afraid Jiang Jianian would forget about her, so she reminded him repeatedly, "I'll be there tomorrow afternoon, don't forget my share, okay? Buy more groceries for lunch, I... I'll pay!"
Miss Ye is very generous.
Jiang Jianian chuckled softly. He didn't refuse Ye Zhiwei's suggestion. He looked at Ye Zhiwei deeply and accepted, "Okay."
Ye Zhiwei watched Jiang Jianian leave with a smile.
Ji Shuli, who had classes in the evening and homework left at Ye's house, saw the two people who were reluctant to part as soon as she got home.
Jiang Jianian's car had already driven far away, but his little cousin was still waving her hand foolishly.
Ji Shuli coughed loudly and continued sourly, "Everyone's gone, what's the point of looking anymore?"
This little cousin hasn't even gotten married yet, and she's already siding with outsiders.
Ji Shuli couldn't help but click her tongue several times.
"When is my little cousin going to school?" Ji Shuli asked.
Ye Zhiwei thought for a moment, "Let's leave after dinner tomorrow."
"So early?" President Ji asked in surprise. "Don't you have no classes tomorrow? You can go tomorrow night if you want."
She wasn't afraid that Jiang Jianian would forget about her, so she was hanging around in front of him in advance to constantly remind the big boss not to forget her.
Although the kitchen staff have been trying different ways to cook for her lately, Ye Zhiwei always felt that something was missing. After thinking about it for a long time, she finally realized that she had been completely spoiled by Jiang Jianian.
She only started cooking after graduating from high school, and although her technique is skillful, the chef was recruited from a five-star hotel. So why does she eat Jiang Jianian's cooking so well?
Ye Zhiwei took a deep breath and told Ji Shuli a white lie, "Well, it's because I'm afraid that the class scheduled for Thursday morning will be moved to the evening. The professor took leave in the morning, but he might be free in the evening, so I'm afraid the class will be moved to the evening."
This situation has indeed occurred. Ji Shuli had no doubts and could only helplessly say, "I was going to say that if you go in the evening, I can take you there, but if you go tomorrow afternoon, my cousin has a class. This professor is quite abnormal; he doesn't allow you to take leave or leave early. I can only have the driver take you there."
"It's okay, it's okay. I don't have much luggage to bring. Besides, I have my little doll to keep me company on the way. Cousin, you should focus on your studies." Ye Zhiwei felt inexplicably guilty, but she still forced herself to say it.
Ji Shuli still had classes, so she grabbed her textbooks and rushed back to school.
Although Ye Yingying is not filming today, her agency seems to have other plans.
Ye Zhiwei's high school classmates were mostly at school at this time, and Miss Ye, who couldn't get anyone to meet, was bored. She originally wanted to go back to her room to read a novel, but because she thought of the dishes Jiang Jianian made, she inexplicably felt hungry.
Ye Zhiwei decided to go alone to a dessert hotel that specializes in desserts and order some small cakes to satisfy her cravings.
This hotel is a dessert-themed hotel under the Yu family business.
Yu Jingchen has always been very business-minded. He will develop in any direction where money can be made. In addition to the real estate industry, Yu Jingchen keenly discovered the dessert market, especially targeting women. This dessert-themed hotel was a plan proposed by Yu Jingchen. In addition to classic domestic desserts, he also used his connections to hire retired foreign dessert chefs. Even the hotel's decoration style was designed by Yu Jingchen himself.
This is the earliest dessert-themed hotel in China. It takes a high-end approach, is expensive, and targets upper-middle-class socialites.
Yu Jingchen spared no expense, using dazzling advertisements and featuring beautiful and sexy female celebrities. With this series of promotions, the dessert hotel has become a dream destination for many girls.
Young girls are proud to be able to eat Sweet-Candy once.
Even a small piece of cake could cost them one or two months' salary.
Yu Jingchen came to the hotel for an inspection. He saw that his younger brother, Yu Shishu, who rarely gets a day off, was locked up at home. He forcefully dragged Yu Shishu out with him.
Yu Shishu remained expressionless throughout, continuing to read the script in the car, using passive-aggressive tactics to protest Yu Jingchen's behavior.
“You shouldn’t always lock yourself in the house,” Yu Jingchen frowned. “I know you don’t like socializing, but you should try to socialize; it’s unavoidable.”
Yu Shishu remained silent and continued reading the script.
Yu Jingchen had a headache; he could never do anything about his younger brother.
However, Yu Jingchen quickly noticed a car parked in front of the hotel, and the girl who got out of the car seemed to be the eldest daughter of the Ye family.
"Shi Shu, look over there, isn't that Ye Yingying's older sister from your crew?" Yu Jingchen tapped his phone, making a clicking sound as he tried to get Yu Shi Shu's attention.
He remembered that when they were filming at the Yu family's house last time, Shi Shu would become particularly nervous and reserved whenever the eldest daughter of the Ye family was near him, a stark contrast to his previous serious and meticulous demeanor during filming, where he never made a mistake.
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Jingchen finished speaking, Yu Shishu, who had been silently protesting, immediately looked up to find Ye Zhiwei.
