Chapter 51: Bloody



I made an appointment with a few people and we dispersed after dinner.

Dafei and Xie Junjie went to the Internet cafe to play team games, Kunkun went to find his wife obediently, and Xia Yu strolled to the library alone.

Because it was the weekend, there were a lot of people in the library. Fortunately, Xia Yu's reserved seat was not occupied.

The English homework, a short essay, was due on Monday, but it was a piece of cake for Xia Yu. He read the requirements once and quickly wrote an entire A4 paper.

You have to know that his English has been tested in actual combat, so it is more than enough for him to cope with such an elective course.

This also made little Sherlock a little hesitant. Should he invite the two foreign sisters to go out and have fun next week? And review his lessons at the same time? After all, language skills require more practice to maintain a good sense of language. (Funny.JPG)

We’ll talk about it when the time comes!

After putting the written essay into the textbook, Xia Yu stood up and walked towards the book lending area.

Because of efficient learning, Xia Yu can put English aside for a while and now wants to continue studying business administration.

When he arrived at Area F (Economy) Category 2, Xia Yu suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

It’s Jiang Baiying!

No wonder I didn’t see her just now, it turns out she was here.

I saw her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she was still wearing almost all white.

Xia Yu still has feelings for his junior schoolmate. He spent a year reading novels alone in the library during his freshman year, but he was no longer alone until his sophomore year.

After the military training, Jiang Baiying, like Xia Yu, started hanging out in the library, sitting diagonally opposite him. She sat there for the entire semester and continued to do so until the next semester.

If he had not obtained the system, Xia Yu's life trajectory in the past four years of college would probably have been in the library, and Jiang Baiying would have been with him for three of those years.

It’s just that he came here to read novels to kill time, while others came here to study seriously. They are like worlds apart.

She has a local hukou, is very pretty and loves studying so much that she puts all the other girls in the School of Electrical Engineering under her feet!

I'm really curious about which handsome guy would force such a perfect girl to marry. Just thinking about it makes Xia Yu want to beat that guy up.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu walked forward and did not disturb Jiang Baiying, but started looking for the book he wanted.

The last time he came to borrow books, he did his homework. This time he plans to follow his feelings. If he is not in a hurry, this feeling of panning for gold in the sand is quite good.

Jiang Baiying beside him seemed to be in the same mood. Unlike last time, she snatched a copy of "Introduction to Business Administration" from him and accidentally wiped the other person's hand.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Yu made more money than Xie Junjie. He treated that green tea girl to so much food but she didn't even touch her hand, but he touched Jiang Baiying's hand.

Sure enough, your father will always be your father. Even if you don’t have your father’s surname or don’t look like your father, you cannot escape this “Dad’s Law”.

Just as Xia Yu was secretly happy, Jiang Baiying beside him leaned over unconsciously.

She was so focused on the bookshelf that she didn't notice there was someone else here.

“Ouch~~”

With a slight groan, a living person fell directly into Xia Yu's arms.

Holy shit, what kind of ridiculous development is this?

Looking at Jiang Baiying in his arms, Xia Yu was confused but also did not forget to complain.

Isn't this a cliché used by male and female protagonists in TV dramas and novels? How could it happen to him?

But there seem to be some differences. The plot in the TV series should develop like this: collision → falling → kissing → opening eyes wide → slapping.

Why did his script only stop at the first step?

It's bloody enough, but you should at least give it a full show. This is just the beginning, how will it develop next?

Just when Xia Yu was about to express himself freely, the atmosphere became awkward.

Jiang Baiying was a beat late and realized something was wrong. She jumped out of Xia Yu's arms like a frightened little white rabbit.

"Um, classmate, I'm sorry!"

Before Xia Yu could say anything, Jiang Baiying apologized first.

Because for many things, no matter right or wrong, Jiang Baiying has become accustomed to apologizing first.

If she didn’t do well on the test before school, she would apologize to the teacher; when someone confessed their love to her, she would also apologize; even if she was the one who got hit today, she would still apologize.

Apologizing when you shouldn't is a sign of lack of confidence.

Because of her poor grades, Jiang Baiying had no confidence at all. When she saw her parents' expectant eyes, she could only dodge because she was afraid of disappointing them.

Hard work can solve many problems, but hard work cannot raise the ceiling.

Doubling down on her efforts might make Jiang Baiying's results look less shabby, but they are still not excellent.

If it were an ordinary person, they would just lie down, but Jiang Baiying couldn't do that. Being born too well could sometimes become a burden, and she dared not rest for even a moment.

Xia Yu didn't know all this, but he also noticed some things, such as Jiang Baiying's lack of confidence.

It's strange. A person like her shouldn't be proud or lack confidence at all!

Xia Yu had such doubts, which could only be attributed to Jiang Baiying's hiding it too well. Since she entered college, no one knew that she was a poor student because she spent all her rest time there.

"I'm fine. Are you okay, Jiang?"

Xia Yu spoke with concern.

"No, it's okay!"

Jiang Baiying stuttered a little, but when she looked at Xia Yu, she felt that he looked very familiar.

"You were last time..."

Isn’t this the boy who always sits diagonally opposite her?

Haven't seen him in a while!

Jiang Baiying is not face-blind, and she recognized Xia Yu after just a moment's thought.

"I'm Xia Yu from the Economics Department, a sophomore this year!"

Seeing that Jiang Baiying actually recognized him, Xia Yu introduced himself, wondering in his heart that he was so famous in the School of Electrical Engineering.

In fact, it’s not that he is famous, but he has always been used to sitting in the same position, and he will always have some impression of it after being together day and night.

The last time Xia Yu used the favorability detector to measure Jiang Baiying's favorability towards him at 36 points, half of it actually came from this reason. Many people have this situation, except for those with face blindness, where they know each other but don't know their names, or are familiar strangers.

"Hello, Senior Xia!"

Jiang Baiying's sudden call of "Senior Xia" made Xia Yu's bones go soft.

This is the first time someone has called him that. It is said that in real universities, the handsome ones are seniors, and the ugly ones are sophomores and juniors.

Xia Yu thought he was very handsome, but since these words came from Jiang Baiying, it gave him the bonus of being a celebrity.

It's just that Xia Yu was just overthinking it. Whenever Jiang Baiying rejected someone's confession, she would always say, "I'm sorry, senior, I can't accept it."

If Xia Yu had confessed his love to Jiang Baiying like Da Fei did, he should have been able to receive the title of "Senior" earlier.

It's really just a matter of personal upbringing...

PS: I have graduated for many years and have been single for many years. What I miss most is the girl who ran into my arms in the library. It’s a pity that I didn’t have the nerve to ask for her WeChat account. After many years of separation, I am left with only a mess and melancholy.

It's adapted from a real-life event, so I hope you don't find it melodramatic.
