Chapter 11 Idiot
Even though it was just a minor injury, Jiang Jiu stayed in the hospital for several days before returning to school.
As soon as I returned to the dormitory, I was surrounded by Shen Mianmian and Yu Lin.
"How did you get hurt? Why don't you tell us?"
Shen Mianmian’s face was full of concern, and her tone was tense and mixed with worry.
"It's okay, I just fell down accidentally."
Jiang Jiu discussed it with Yun Shuili and felt that there was no need to tell anyone about this matter, so she told a small lie.
"You better be careful next time!"
Yu Lin echoed.
"By the way, Mr. Ji heard that you were hospitalized due to injury, and asked us to tell you to remember to go find him when you are discharged."
Shen Mianmian said after thinking for a while.
"Also, Senior Fojiang is looking for you too."
Yu Lin looked at Jiang Jiu with an ambiguous look. In just that second, Jiang Jiu could see the gossip in her eyes.
"It doesn't matter, really."
Jiang Jiu retorted without hesitation.
"Okay, okay, we all believe it."
The two nodded in sync.
“…”
But since he had heard it, Jiang Jiu couldn't pretend nothing happened, so he turned around and walked downstairs to find Ji Chen. Unexpectedly, as soon as he went downstairs, he bumped into Fo Jiang who was rushing over.
"Why are you here?"
Ginger wine surprise.
"How are you?"
Fo Jiang looked hesitant and looked Jiang Jiu up and down. Only after confirming that Jiang Jiu was fine did he relax a little.
"It's okay, just a minor skin injury."
Jiang Jiu knew that some things could not be hidden from Fo Jiang. Here, Fo Jiang's family was powerful and influential, so she had no need to lie.
"You'd better not go out too often recently."
Fo Jiang has never been the type to meddle in other people's affairs. Now that he is reminding her with a serious expression, he probably knows something.
"Okay, thank you."
Jiang Jiu remained calm, acting like a student who listened to advice, and did not refute Fo Jiang's words.
"Well, especially at night, it's dangerous for a girl to be outside."
Fo Jiang regained his compassionate yet extremely aloof expression, just like the almighty Buddha, overlooking the suffering of all living beings but never interfering.
"good."
Jiang Jiu nodded.
“…”
Fo Jiang seemed to see through her perfunctory attitude and was silent for a moment.
"If you don't want to get hurt again, just listen to me."
After saying that, Fo Jiang felt that his tone sounded a bit like an order, so he added another sentence.
"I'm just kindly reminding you."
Jiang Jiu was amused by Fo Jiang's serious expression. He didn't expect that he could be so awkward at times.
Whenever I saw him before, he was either indifferent or composed, and never lost his composure.
Even in the game, he was a quiet person, and only after she teased him many times did he slowly fall for her.
"I really believe it."
Jiang Jiu tried her best to make her expression look sincere, hoping that Fo Jiang would believe her words.
"Um."
Fo Jiang finally stopped hesitating and nodded lightly, then turned and left the women's dormitory.
Jiang Jiu stood there, looking at Fo Jiang's back, and a warm feeling inexplicably surged in his heart.
Although it is not known whether Fo Jiang had anything to do with her being attacked, no matter what, he would come to remind a female classmate whom he was not very familiar with, all because of his kindness in his bones.
Jiang Jiu thought about it and felt that it was too strange to go find Ji Chen at this time, so it would be better to wait until another day.
The setting sun in the sky faintly fell under the mountains, illuminating the entire campus in golden color.
The blurry figure under the shade of the tree caught Jiang Jiu's eye. Even though he couldn't see clearly, Jiang Jiu subconsciously determined that the person in front was Long Xuan.
Besides his figure, there is also that vague...stupid aura about him.
“…”
Thinking of the word "idiot", Jiang Jiu couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth. If Long Xuan knew that she thought of him so much, he might make a fuss for a long time.
While Jiang Jiu was still thinking, Long Xuan walked out from behind the big tree. He looked very confused, as if he was lost.
She subconsciously worried about Long Xuan's situation and took two steps forward, and was seen by him.
Long Xuan's eyes lit up and he ran to the ginger wine in small steps.
"Hello classmate, how do I get to the auditorium?"
Long Xuan's eyes sparkled, just like the dragon clan's favorite golden gems, dazzling and colorful. Being looked at by him like this, Jiang Jiu's voice couldn't help but soften.
"It's right behind the teaching building. You need to go through the small path."
Jiang Jiu pointed in the direction behind him and said to Long Xuan.
"Um......"
Long Xuan looked behind Jiang Jiu, then looked at Jiang Jiu again, and finally lowered his head in thought for a while before whispering to Jiang Jiu.
"Actually... I'm a bit directionally challenged and time is almost up. Could you please take me there?"
After Long Xuan finished speaking, he glanced at Jiang Jiu cautiously, as if he thought his request was excessive, and his cheeks flushed.
"?"
Jiang Jiu was stunned for a moment, then nodded blankly.
How come she didn't know that Long Xuan was a directionally challenged person before? Was it because he was a dragon and could fly in the sky before, so no one noticed that he would get lost because of the complicated terrain?
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that Long Xuan was even more adorable.
"That's great. Thank you."
Long Xuan bowed obediently to Jiang Jiu, solemnly as if she had done something earth-shattering and heartbreaking.
"It's okay, there's no need to be like this."
Jiang Jiu waved his hand to indicate that it didn't matter.
The path leading to the auditorium was quiet and deserted. Jiang Jiu and Long Xuan walked side by side on the path. The sky gradually darkened and the street lights on the roadside were turned on, illuminating the way ahead.
Perhaps because the atmosphere was too quiet, Long Xuan spoke first.
"Classmate, I haven't asked your name yet."
Jiang Jiu turned his head, and the faint light shone on his side face. The fur on his fair and smooth skin could be clearly seen, and the furry look was indescribably cute.
Long Xuan was stunned for a moment, with his mouth slightly open watching Jiang Jiu's pink lips opening and closing. He didn't hear what Jiang Jiu said at all, and just stared at Jiang Jiu's face.
"My name is Jiang Jiu."
Jiang Jiu said the name, but didn't hear Long Xuan's response for a long time. Question marks appeared in his head and he looked at Long Xuan in confusion.
"Ahem, sorry, I didn't hear you clearly. Could you please say it again?"
When Long Xuan saw Jiang Jiu's expression, he suddenly realized what was going on and came out of his trance. He spoke with stammering lips and feeling a little embarrassed.
If it weren't for the darkness of night, Jiang Jiu would probably be able to see his face as red as an apple.
"My name is Jiang Jiu."
Jiang Jiu was helpless. Why was Long Xuan still stupid and cute after becoming a human?
"Oh...oh, that's a nice name."
Long Xuan tried to cover up his embarrassing behavior, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, which made Jiang Jiu unable to help laughing again.
"Why are you so green, like you've never talked to a girl before?"
Ginger Wine shook his head.
"Um... never said that."
Jiang Jiu was surprised to hear this unexpected answer. She was just joking.
