Chapter 41 41 "What should I do if I can't bear to leave you, girlfriend?"...
In the end, Chen Zan was sent back to school by He Jingsui himself. She was still in a daze, and the words "I like you too" seemed to be still ringing in her ears, lingering for a long time.
Until he felt a cool touch on the palm of his hand. Chen Zan came back to his senses with trembling eyelashes and subconsciously withdrew his hand.
He Jingsui did not allow her to withdraw her hand from his palm. He held it gently but firmly, and rubbed her fingertips affectionately with his fingertips.
Her fingers were slender and white. She lowered her eyes and looked quietly. There was a hint of reluctance and lingering love in her tender and gentle gaze.
His fingers were rubbed so hard that they became numb, and even his heart was affected.
Chen Zan couldn't adapt to this intimate and tingling feeling for a while, and his fingertips trembled slightly twice in his palm.
He Jing then raised his eyes and looked at her.
Her cheeks were slightly drooping, and she stood in front of him obediently and quietly.
There was a hint of gentleness in those dark eyes that had never been there before. He looked at her quietly, and his burning gaze seemed to penetrate her closed eyelids and see through the emotions in her eyes at the moment.
The warm wind blew the little strands of hair beside her ears, sticking to her fair and rosy cheeks. He Jing then raised his hand and pushed the disobedient hair behind her ears.
Suddenly, he chuckled.
"Are you shy?"
His voice came from above his head, and there was a barely perceptible smile in his slightly deep voice.
Chen Zan's heart trembled. She raised her eyelids and her gaze met his eyes with a faint smile. His brows were relaxed and his pupils were dark and deep.
She retracted her hand and carefully placed it behind her back. Where he couldn't see, she twisted her fingers together, as if twisting her already numb heart, "No..."
He Jingsui saw through all her little thoughts, with a meaningful smile on his lips, but he did not expose it.
Putting his hands in his pockets, he raised his chin towards the campus and said to her, "Okay, let's go in quickly."
Chen Zhan nodded blankly, "Okay."
When I asked her to leave, she really left, turning around without any reluctance.
He Jingsui looked at her slightly stiff figure and her increasingly quickened pace, and couldn't help but chuckle. He just stood there, tilting his head as he watched his newly confirmed girlfriend calmly yet slightly panickedly walk into the campus and disappear from his sight.
He basked in the sunshine, letting the smile on his lips expand unrestrainedly.
He even shook his head helplessly, as if to say, "You still say you're not shy."
…
Chen Zan walked back to the dormitory with stiff steps. Her heart was beating like a deer, without any rhythm or pattern. She held it tightly, afraid that it would jump out at any second.
Fortunately, there was no one in the dormitory. Chen Zan walked in and sat at his desk, pressing his palm against the skin on his chest to calm his strong heartbeat.
"Buzz."
The phone in the bag rang twice, and a message came in.
Chen Zan took it out and opened it. It was sent by He Jingsui.
He Jingsui: I'm here.
Chen Zhan understood the meaning of reporting from these three simple words. She felt sweet in her heart and couldn't hold back the smile on her lips. She looked shy and replied to his message with squinted eyes.
Chen Zhan: Okay.
She held the phone in both hands, reading the message he sent, as if she could never get enough of it.
His voice sounded in her mind at an inappropriate time again. She seemed to never forget that scene at the Sports University.
Chen Zan put down his phone and covered his face with his hands.
She remembered burying her face shyly in He Jingsui's arms, and remembered him holding her face and saying "I like you."
She thought of his eyes that were shining brightly in the sunlight, and that kind of gentle badness, which seemed to make it even more difficult for her to calm her heart.
Oh my god.
How could there be such a person?
Before she could get over her shyness, the dormitory door was opened from the outside with a "click" and He Shiyi came in.
"Zhanzhan, you're back?" He Shiyi saw Chen Zan in the dormitory with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Chen Zan was still covering her face which was red with shyness. Before she nodded, He Shiyi ran towards her in small steps. She pulled a chair from the side and sat down, holding her cheeks with her hands obediently, looking at her with a look of excitement.
"Tell me quickly, what did my brother say to you?"
It would be fine if I didn’t mention this, but my heart softens when I mention Chen Zan.
She lowered her eyes and thought about it quietly. She felt shy, but also very happy. She couldn't hide the smile in the corner of her eyes. She said to He Shiyi, "He said... I like you too."
"Ahhhhhhhhh," He Shiyi was very excited, "Did he really say that?!!"
Chen Zhan smiled brightly, his eyes curved into beautiful crescents, and he nodded vigorously, "Yeah."
"So you two are boyfriend and girlfriend now?"
Chen Zan tried hard to suppress the smile on his lips and nodded shyly.
Knowing the secret that Chen Zhan liked He Jingsui, He Shiyi was happy for her that she finally got what she wanted. She hugged her tightly and said, "Zhan Zhan, I'm so happy for you."
Chen Zhan also hugged her, "Thank you Shi Yi."
"If He Jingsui bullies you in the future, just tell me," He Shiyi let go of her and clenched his fists in front of her in a feigned ferocity. "Sister, I will definitely help you vent your anger."
"Okay." Chen Zhan smiled and joked with her, "Then you must not be soft-hearted in the future."
This matter was soon known to the other two sisters in the dormitory. Ji Miaomiao and Tao Yiran were even more excited than He Jingsui himself.
The dormitory was filled with their screams. The scene was too noisy. Chen Zan was a little afraid that they would attract "complaints" from the dormitory manager or the people in the next dormitory. She hid a trace of worry between her brows and went to pull them away.
But the two sisters didn't care at all and continued to quarrel, and the noise seemed to be about to blow the roof off the dormitory.
“…”
"Did I hear it right, Zhanzhan, you are really in love with He Jingsui?!" Even though she was very excited, Ji Miaomiao still had a look of disbelief on her face.
"Of course it's true," He Shiyi shook his phone and said playfully, "I've confirmed it with my brother. From now on, Zhanzhan will be my sister-in-law."
“…”
The affectionate name made Chen Zan's cheeks blush again. She scolded her, "Shi Yi, don't talk nonsense."
How can a relationship reach the level of becoming sister-in-law?
It's not a marriage.
"I'm not talking nonsense, Zhanzhan. You are my sister-in-law now." He Shiyi said with a smile, "Besides, I only recognize you as my sister-in-law."
“…”
"Yes, the only sister-in-law." Ji Miaomiao and Tao Yiran agreed.
This made Chen Zan feel extremely confused and his cheeks turned even redder.
That night, Chen Zan couldn't fall asleep for a long time because of their noise. It was silent in the middle of the night, and the light coming in from the window illuminated the silence in the room. Chen Zan lay flat on the bed, listening to his slow breathing.
Before this, she had never thought about having a relationship with the boy she liked. There was too much difference between them. But now, this impossibility had come into her life again, and she couldn't escape it or drive it away.
She silently curled the corners of her lips, picked up the phone beside her pillow, and clicked into her private photo album.
This album is full of photos and videos of He Jingsui, which she downloaded and saved from the school forum or other channels. All in all, there are quite a lot of them.
She clicked on them one by one, swiping through the photos to appreciate them slowly. In the silent space, only her gaze was the hottest and brightest.
The next morning, Chen Zan was just coming out of the bathroom when he received a call from He Jingsui. When he saw that it was him calling, Chen Zan was a little stunned.
But he also pressed the answer button and put it to his ear, "Hello?"
Her voice was soft and pleasant, and it was transmitted into He Jingsui's ears through the electric current. The sound rubbed against the eardrum, which made him feel unexpectedly comfortable.
At this moment, He Jingsui was leaning against a tree under the dormitory building of the Academy of Fine Arts, ignoring the gazes cast at him one after another, and talking to his girlfriend on his mobile phone.
His voice was still lazy, and he asked her with a hint of a smile, "Are you awake?"
"Rise up."
He chatted with her casually, "So what are you going to do now?"
"…Attend class."
The question-and-answer model is so embarrassing.
Chen Zhan also asked him, "What about you?"
"What?"
"What are you going to do?"
"Looking for a girlfriend." He Jingsui didn't hide his feelings at all. He even told Chen Zan that he was right downstairs in their dormitory. He teased her with a wronged tone, "Girlfriend, if you don't come out soon, your boyfriend will probably be stared at by those scary female classmates in your school."
“…”
Chen Zhan was stunned for half a second before reacting, "What did you say?"
"Are you in our school?"
The person on the phone said "hmm" and told her, "Downstairs in the dormitory."
Chen Zan was surprised and quickly opened the sliding glass door leading to the balcony. She ran to the balcony and looked down from the railing. Sure enough, she saw a figure that looked like He Jingsui standing next to a tree downstairs from the dormitory.
"Why are you in our school?" Her voice sounded anxious.
The person on the other side was still unhurried, "Didn't I tell you, I'm here to find my girlfriend."
“…”
Chen Zhan's cheeks felt a little hot from the word "girlfriend", and he pursed his lips a little embarrassedly.
The person on the other end of the phone urged her with a smile, "Girlfriend, how long do I have to wait for you?"
Chen Zhan tightened her grip on the railing. Standing on the balcony, she stared at the blurry figure hidden by the leaves. She felt a little excited. "Wait a little longer."
"Okay," he agreed without feeling cheesy at all, "Then hurry up, I've missed you."
His voice was soft and deep, and when it reached Chen Zhan's ears through the electric current, it felt a bit like he was whispering to her. Just this one sentence made Chen Zhan's whole body numb, and her heartbeat became very fast. The feeling of the rhythmless but powerful pounding on her chest was something she couldn't ignore for a moment.
While she was still wondering how to tell the other three people in the dormitory about this, He Shiyi had already answered her question before she could, with a smile of someone who had experienced it on his face, "I understand, Zhanzhan, go ahead."
“…”
Chen Zhan wanted to explain something to them, but Ji Miaomiao walked over, helped her pick up her bag from the chair, and pushed her out, advising her as she pushed, "You two have just started dating. Young couples need to be inseparable to be sweet. He's waiting downstairs. You have to keep an eye on him. Who knows how many girls in our school are coveting this piece of Tang Monk meat? When you go down, take his hand and hug his waist to claim your sovereignty! Don't let anyone else snatch him away."
“…”
Chen Zhan turned around with his bag in his hand. As soon as he opened his mouth, he smiled at Ji Miaomiao and waved at him, "Go ahead, have a good relationship!"
“…”
I never expected that I would be kicked out by them.
It was almost time, so Chen Zan went downstairs to meet He Jingsui. All the way down the stairs, he could hear girls whispering.
"He Jingsui is downstairs from us!"
"Isn't he waiting for his girlfriend?"
"He has a girlfriend? From our school? How come I didn't know???"
“…”
My girlfriend walked past them silently. She was even afraid of being recognized by them, so she lowered her head guiltily.
"Do you think it could be Qin Yuyao? They've been talking about them before. Do you think Qin Yuyao could have secretly taken down He Jingsui?"
"That being said, I don't think He Jingsui likes Qin Yuyao."
“…”
Chen Zan missed them, but did not miss their voices. The two girls had already begun to speculate about the unknown girlfriend.
"I think He Jingsui's girlfriend must be someone else."
Chen Zan was nervous, afraid of being discovered, so he quickened his pace.
As she approached the dormitory building, she felt even more nervous. Afraid that her image would be a mess, she raised her hand to tidy up the hair around her ears.
This morning was the peak time for traffic in front of the dormitory building, as a prominent figure stood out not far away. He lazily leaned against the wall, his fingers absentmindedly fiddling with a lighter. He stood there patiently, waiting for someone, his eyelids drooping lazily, ignoring the countless glances and looks he received, his expression sullen.
Chen Zhan spotted him instantly through the throng of people. It was a bright summer morning, the air thick with fresh fragrance. He was dressed in a crisp white casual shirt, nestled among the lush greenery. His strong, deep profile was outlined by the faint, fragmented light, and his gentle brows betrayed a gentle patience that had subdued his ill will.
The tension in his heart was relieved, Chen Zan swallowed and walked towards him.
Before I got close, I was discovered by his sweeping gaze.
He Jingsui saw that the person he was waiting for finally came out, stood up, put the silver lighter in his hand into his pocket, and walked towards her.
Chen Zan could feel the gazes and eyes around her curiously directed in their direction. She couldn't help but feel nervous when being deliberately looked at or stared at.
Walking stiffly in front of him, Chen Zhan pursed his lips into a faint smile.
Her cheeks were a little flushed.
Even his voice trembled slightly, "You've been waiting for a long time..."
He Jingsui didn't play by the rules and nodded without holding back, "Yeah."
“…”
"Only you can make me wait like this."
He could easily stir up ripples in her heart with just one sentence, like warm water boiling her heart and making her almost unable to breathe.
Fortunately, He Jingsui didn't waste too much time with her. He walked to her and took the initiative to hold her hand, holding her hand tightly in his palm.
The faint aura from his body approached, and the warmth from his palm made Chen Zhan look up subconsciously.
The rustling of leaves shattered the falling sunlight into pieces, drenching him with tenderness. His dark eyes were also shimmering with light, and when he looked at her, there was a kind of casual tenderness.
Pulling the corner of his lip, he said, "Time is running out. Let me take you to eat."
He seemed to be more familiar with the cafeteria than she was, and even knew what she liked to eat for breakfast. Looking at the things he bought at the cafeteria window, Chen Zhan was surprised for a moment.
"you……"
He Jingsui sat across from her, raising his eyebrows to admire the surprised and lively expression on her face, with a faint smile on the corner of his lips, "What's wrong?"
"How do you know I like to eat these?"
He Jingsui didn't tell her, saying it was a secret, and asked her to eat quickly because class was about to start.
Chen Zan couldn't help but think deeply about the many doubts, but time was pressing, so she had to put them aside and eat breakfast quietly.
Today's morning class, "8: Art Appreciation," was an open class, open to all students. Because of the friendly learning atmosphere and the humorous instructor, this class was very popular among students at the Academy of Fine Arts, with even students from other departments joining in.
Chen Zhan rushed into the classroom at the last minute of class and found an empty seat to sit down, but she never expected that He Jingsui would follow her in. He went through the back door, so not many people noticed him. Chen Zhan almost didn't notice him until he sat down next to her.
The teacher at the podium was adjusting the Little Bee to prepare for the lecture, and there was a rustling and noisy sound in the classroom. He Jingsui's appearance made Chen Zhan start to panic and nervous. While paying attention to the teacher's movements on the podium, she lowered her voice and asked him, "Why did you follow me in?"
He Jingsui didn't react as emotionally as she did. He leaned lazily, his arms folded across his chest, and raised his eyebrows leisurely, "I'll go to class with you."
Many classmates around him had already noticed him, and the rustling noises became louder.
Finally, even the teacher looked over. He had already put on his microphone and turned it on, adjusting the volume. He said to them with a humorous smile, "I was wondering why the attendance was so high today. It turns out that handsome guys are here to listen to my class too."
This caused everyone in the classroom to burst into laughter.
Now everyone in the classroom noticed He Jingsui.
But he remained unmoved, and did not lose any momentum even in the face of the teacher's humorous teasing. He held Chen Zan's hand under the table, and no matter how she struggled, he still did not let go.
He even patiently hooked his fingers on her palm.
"Classmate, you are welcome to attend my class in the future."
This statement was recognized by many students in the classroom. They even had excitement on their faces, and their fickle thoughts were exposed to the air.
He Jingsui hooked Chen Zan's hand under the table, from just holding hands to intertwining their fingers.
He casually curled the corners of his lip and answered the teacher politely, "No, teacher. I'm afraid that if the dozens of eyes in your classroom stare at me for too long, my girlfriend will get jealous."
One word can cause a thousand waves.
Everyone in the classroom exclaimed "Oh!" in surprise.
What does this mean.
This means that He Jingsui really has a girlfriend, and his girlfriend is in this classroom. He came here to accompany his girlfriend to class today!
The sound of "Oh——" also made Chen Zan's heart skip a beat.
He is a bit too ostentatious.
Chen Zan felt a little uncomfortable sitting next to him. She lowered her head in embarrassment, like an ostrich, and was about to bury herself in the book.
Until he turned his head calmly and looked at her, which caused everyone in the classroom to cheer again, and this time even the teacher on the podium was among them.
The teacher even teased her humorously, "Student, your boyfriend is so handsome, you have to keep him under control."
Her cheeks were obviously flushed, and Chen Zan wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it, but in his peripheral vision, he saw his bright smile, which was full of satisfaction and determination.
Even after the class ended, the redness on Chen Zhan's cheeks hadn't faded. He Jing then openly led Chen Zhan out of the noisy classroom.
They held hands and did not let go even after leaving the teaching building.
Chen Zan followed him with a blushing face and a beating heart.
Noticing that she frequently looked at him, He Jing turned his head and caught her evasive gaze.
"Anything you want to say?"
He Jing then let go of her hand and turned to face her.
Birds were singing crisply in the tall and dense treetops above his head, but Chen Zan's heart was not at peace.
She looked at him and asked, "How did you know I have an early morning class today?"
He still said it was a secret.
"Then why did you grab my hand in class just now and say that to the teacher..." She couldn't help feeling embarrassed when she recalled the scene just now.
Yet, he pretended not to understand in front of her, and asked knowingly, "What?"
“…”
Chen Zan's face flushed red, and his anxious eyes looked like a rabbit about to bite someone.
He Jingsui stopped teasing her, and looked at her dotingly with his casual eyebrows. He raised his hand, bent his index finger and scratched her nose. He bent down and approached her, saying, "I'm declaring my sovereignty, don't you understand?"
The face so close to him magnified in his eyes, and Chen Zan was slightly stunned.
Unexpectedly, he stretched out his arm and hugged her, and she moved closer to his arms. The unexpectedly shortened distance allowed her to almost kiss his collarbone, which was slightly open at the collar of his shirt.
Chen Zan's heart skipped a beat. She raised her head slightly and met He Jingsui's eyes which were filled with strong emotions. Those eyes were like the look of a marked prey, filled with a certain possessiveness.
"I remember that last time your president looked at you with a strange look in his eyes," he said, his brows relaxed, his voice calm but with a hint of gritted teeth. "What if a Meng Gaoyuan pops up in your school and pesters you? If he runs away, who will I turn to for justice?"
With a sweet feeling bubbling in his heart, Chen Zhan raised his eyes to look at him and whispered, "I won't run away with them."
He Jingsui of course knew that she would not run away, he was just teasing her.
Chen Zan broke free from his arms and took two steps back to distance herself from him. She knew that he had been very busy recently and probably didn't have much free time.
Chen Zan felt very warm in his heart that he could take time out of his busy days to come and accompany her, and she seemed to be able to see his love for her.
She looked at him and smiled, her smile clear and bright with her curved eyebrows and eyes.
Now it was He Jingsui's turn to be stunned.
Knowing what she would say next, "Okay, go back quickly."
Drive him away.
And drove him away with a smile.
He Jingsui also laughed, "Who said that they would always stay with me? Why are you sending me away so soon?"
This sentence seemed familiar. Chen Zhan slowly recalled that this was what he said to him when he went to his house to find him that day. Chen Zhan couldn't bear to see him fall into such a painful low point due to his fever.
But I didn't expect him to hear it.
"Did you hear that?" A hint of surprise flashed across Chen Zan's face.
He Jingsui nodded openly and admitted, "Yes."
Chen Zan's face was a little red.
He Jingsui felt itchy and couldn't help but pinch it lightly.
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore." He Jing then withdrew his hand. He really didn't have much free time recently. He skipped this morning's training and he had to go back to make up for it.
So I told her, “I’m leaving.”
Chen Zan nodded and raised his hand to say goodbye to him.
"Are you really willing to let me go?" He Jing took a small step back, turned back and stared at her.
Chen Zan didn't think too much about it and just blinked in response to his question.
But He Jingsui, who was only thinking about his girlfriend, had more ideas. He raised his eyebrows slightly and told her bluntly, in a very bad way, "What should I do if I can't bear to leave you, girlfriend?"
Chen Zan blushed at the moment his heart was beating like a drum.
She said to him cautiously, "Then hug me?"
