Chapter 103 This girl is kind of fun
Wen Jiu looked up at the person in front of her: "Weren't you going to buy me a lamp and take me back?"
Zhou Yanchuan was surprised that she was still thinking about this, and smiled.
The girl hummed, but still tiptoed and kissed him, a light, fleeting kiss.
The smile in his eyes deepened.
Wen Jiu was still thinking about what she had just seen in the restaurant, and was a little absent-minded. She didn't even think about changing her shoes. She just stood there blankly for a while, and then asked, "Do you know Jin Yiyan?"
Zhou Yanchuan was bending down to get slippers when he heard this. He hummed in response and squatted down beside the girl's feet: "Lift your foot."
Wen Jiu obediently did as he was told, and subconsciously reached out to support his shoulder.
What kind of person is he?
"He's not a good person."
Zhou Yanchuan knew what she was thinking and stood up: "Jin Yiyan may not be a good person, but he is quite honest. There is no need for him to lie to your friend."
"That."
He answered first: "She should know."
Wen Jiu was stunned.
"Did they know?" she murmured.

As soon as Wen Jiu came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, she touched her phone and saw a new message notification.
He Shixu: "Let's go out and have fun sometime."
Her eyelashes drooped, concealing the emotions in her eyes.
She only realized the purpose of tonight's dinner when Zhou Yanchuan agreed to add her on WeChat.
I can't quite describe what kind of feeling it is.
I should be happy, but I just can't seem to feel happy.
I have never felt the gap between him and her so clearly before.
"He Shixu sent me a message."
"What did they send?"
"We said we should go out and have fun together sometime."
Zhou Yanchuan reached out and pulled her to his lap: "What did you say?"
"I haven't said yet."
"I can agree to that."
He started playing with her hair again.
Wen Jiu turned to look at him and asked softly, "Aren't you jealous anymore?"
"Do you really think I get jealous of everything?"
He pinched her cheek: "I don't need someone who's useful to me."
Wen Jiu looked at him.
I'm soft-hearted, yet uneasy.
Seeing the girl's aggrieved look, Zhou Yanchuan knew she was feeling guilty, so he teased her on purpose: "Do you feel that your boyfriend is especially nice?"
"Um."
"Why don't you reward him?"
What will the reward be?
He pointed to his cheek.
Wen Jiu hesitated for only a moment before obediently doing as he was told, kneeling on the sofa and tilting her head up to kiss his face.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Zhou Yanchuan suddenly turned his head.
To her astonishment, he raised his hand to support the back of her neck, and as their lips met, he suppressed the surge of emotion in his eyes and gently coaxed, "Don't overthink it."

After the National Day holiday, Zhou Yanchuan returned to Qingyang, and Wen Jiu officially began her university studies.
University is different from high school; there are no teachers nagging you anymore, and most of the time you have to rely on your own self-discipline.
Aside from eating and sleeping, Wen Jiu spent most of her time at the library.
Life was peaceful and fulfilling.
The weather turned cold without us even realizing it, and the woods behind the dormitory became increasingly desolate.
Another winter has arrived.
The wind is strong in the north of the city, so Wen Jiu has to button up her clothes every day before going out, afraid that her clothes will be lifted up as soon as she leaves the dormitory.
Looking at the person who seemed to be wrapped up like a little dumpling, Li Yue raised the corners of her lips: "Sweetie, aren't you exaggerating a bit?"
Wen Jiu shook her head, not exaggerating at all: "I wore my coat open yesterday, and my throat hurts today."
Upon hearing this, Li Sijin immediately turned around and said, "I have some cold medicine, would you like some?"
“I’ve already had it,” she said gently. “Thank you.”
As I picked up the book on the table to leave, I saw Li Yue on the bed pick up her phone and glance at it, seemingly waiting for some message. However, her expression clearly showed that she hadn't received any news. She frowned and tossed the phone aside.
Wen Jiu's gaze paused slightly.
While she was struggling with how to tell the girl about Jin Yiyan's situation, or whether to tell her at all, she heard the news of her breakup.
From then on, Li Yue rarely left the dormitory and spent most of her time attending classes with them.
There was no trace of sadness in his demeanor or behavior.
but.
Wen Jiu often saw her staring blankly at her phone.
She thought for a moment and asked softly, "Do you still want to eat the little cakes from the shop near the school gate today?"
Hearing the voices below, Li Yue's forlorn eyes brightened with a hint of a smile: "Yes, I want it."
"Then I'll buy it for you when I get back."
"good."

Wen Jiu had just entered the library when she bumped into someone, who dropped the book in their hand on the ground.
She apologized as she bent down to pick up the book that had fallen to the ground, her expression slightly apprehensive as she handed it to its owner.
When He Shixu saw the person in front of him clearly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "I was wondering why I'd never seen you at school before."
He smiled and said, "Do you remember me?"
Wen Jiu nodded.
His gaze fell on the books in her arms: "Going to study?"
"Um."
"You were already working that hard in your freshman year?"
"There's no harm in learning."
He smiled and said, "That's true."
"Then I'll be going now, senior."
"Go."
He Shixu found it amusing to watch the person lift their foot and walk forward.
I never imagined that Zhou Yanchuan would fall for such a well-behaved girl, so innocent and without any complicated thoughts.
After adding him on WeChat, she replied to his message: "Let's hang out sometime."
I haven't sent him any more messages since.
Zhou Yanchuan introduced her to people, but she didn't use them at all.
I really don't know whether to call this girl stupid or what.
He Shixu smiled and went out. When he reached the intersection, he saw Xie Tinghe's car.
He walked over.
Why is it so slow?
"I ran into someone I knew."
Who is it?
"The girl that Yan Chuan brought last time."
Xie Tinghe thought for a moment and said, "That one."
That's how they are; they appear warm and attentive on the surface, but in reality, they forget about people as soon as they turn their backs. People who are of no value to them are not worth remembering.
And who knows, maybe next time they'll bring a different person.
"She asked you for help?"
"Don't even mention helping."
"Um?"
"They haven't sent me a single message."
Xie Tinghe's eyes widened in surprise for a moment before he slowly said, "This girl is either really stupid, or she's incredibly skilled."
"Who knows?" He Shixu said calmly.
“I remember the girl that Yiyan found last time was also from your major,” Xie Tinghe said casually, then added, “Your major has been getting into trouble lately.”
"How are they?"
"What can you do? That woman found out that Yiyan was hanging out with other women, couldn't accept it, and broke up with him."
He Shixu gave a mocking laugh.
"Isn't that incredibly stupid? Just a few sweet words and you think you can't live without her?"
"They broke up?"
"They've definitely broken up. Can we let her get away with this? I don't know what these women are thinking."
For them, dating is just a temporary novelty; once the novelty wears off, it's over, and there aren't many pretty girls around.
He Shixu remained noncommittal.
Suddenly, the image of the book the girl had been holding popped into my mind.
He earnestly said that learning something wouldn't hurt, but he ended up holding a suspense novel.
He smiled again.
