Chapter 20 Campus Goddess Bai Yueguang 20 Are we considered reunited...
In the morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window, and the noise of people getting busy could be heard from the street downstairs.
The girl lay obediently in Ji Hanlin's arms, her slender white legs wrapped around his waist. Hearing the faint noise coming from outside the window, she frowned in dissatisfaction and buried her face deeper.
Ji Hanlin kissed her forehead gently, with a smile in his eyes, which was the satisfaction after eating a full meal.
Wen Qianning was awakened by the smell of food.
She opened her eyes drowsily, turned over, and slowly sat up from the quilt. Her long hair was disheveled, her cheeks still flushed from not waking up yet, her whole body was covered with traces of last night's indulgence, and her waist ached as if it was broken.
Just then, Ji Hanlin pushed the door open and walked in. He immediately saw the girl curled up in bed, her feet on the carpet beside the bed without slippers, blinking at him.
So he stopped and asked, "Are you awake? Breakfast is ready."
"I'm awake... My whole body hurts. It's all your fault." Wen Qianning glared at him, but in Ji Hanlin's eyes, it seemed like she was flirting and acting coquettishly.
"It's my fault. It's my first time and I don't have any experience..." He coughed lightly, and his ears kept turning red when he recalled the soul-stirring experience last night. "I'll go buy you some medicine to apply."
"No thanks." The girl in front of him shook her head and refused. She just stretched out her hands to him lazily, her voice as soft as melted sugar, "Hold~"
Ji Hanlin looked at her, silent for a second before walking forward and leaning over to pull Wen Qianning out of the bed. He reluctantly carried her to the bathroom, glancing down at her. She leaned softly in his arms, burying her face in his neck and nuzzling it.
After washing up, Wen Qianning was forced by Ji Hanlin to sit down at the dining table. She obediently picked up the spoon and tasted the porridge. She immediately narrowed her eyes in satisfaction and looked up at Ji Hanlin: "Ji Hanlin, your cooking is so delicious."
He pulled out a chair and sat down, curling his lips slightly and said, "Eat more."
Suddenly, Wen Qianning leaned closer to him and asked with a smile, "So... we are back together now, right?"
Ji Hanlin didn't answer immediately. He stared at her with an unchanged expression and asked, "Do you still like me?"
Wen Qianning was stunned and was about to speak when he replied calmly, "It doesn't matter if you don't like it. It doesn't matter. I won't let you go."
When he said this, his voice was very soft, and his tone was still cold and indifferent, but there was an unconcealable stubbornness hidden in his eyes.
"Of course I like it." Wen Qianning smiled, her watery eyes brimming with allure. She stretched out her legs and gently rubbed Ji Hanlin's trouser leg with her foot under the table.
"Ningning, stop making trouble." He looked at her deeply, his voice a little hoarse, and said meaningfully, "If you don't want to be unable to get out of bed for the next few days, then stay here honestly."
Hearing this, the girl who was originally as cunning as a fox immediately became obedient, sat up straight, and did not dare to continue teasing.
Ji Hanlin was in a good mood and didn't dwell on this topic anymore. Instead, he asked Wen Qianning something else, "Which school are you planning to apply to?"
She held her chin with both hands, raised her eyebrows, and replied as a matter of course: "Of course I'm going to the same city as you."
"But don't be like those novels and TV dramas and give up the school you could have gone to for me. It's true that I like you, but I also don't want you to waste your future for me." Wen Qianning said seriously and reached out to poke his face.
The male protagonist has excellent grades, so naturally he can attend the best schools. Although her grades have improved significantly since she came to this world, it is still difficult for her to get into the best universities in the country. Even if she can get in, the major is not very good. She is a little distressed. If Lin Weixi were the female protagonist, she would definitely be able to easily attend the same university as Ji Hanlin... Now she can only settle for the second best and go to the same city as the male protagonist.
Ji Hanlin paused, looked at her well-behaved eyes, and his gaze darkened, as if he was suppressing some surging emotions.
"Okay," he replied.
After breakfast, Wen Qianning was still curled up in her chair, refusing to move. Ji Hanlin had already stood up: "I've asked the driver to come and take you home."
She was stunned for a moment, pouted, and stood up from the chair reluctantly.
She sat in the car all the way without saying a word, staring out the window in silence. It wasn't until the driver sat in the front seat that he asked softly, "Master, do you want to close the partition?"
"Pull it up," he replied calmly.
The soundproof partition between the front and rear seats slowly rose, dividing the car into two. As the last trace of outside sound was cut off, Ji Hanlin raised his eyes and asked her, "What are you unhappy about?"
The girl leaned over and threw herself into his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, rubbed her face against his chest, and said in a soft voice: "I want to be with you every minute of every second."
After she finished speaking, she looked up at him, her eyes clear, yet with a hint of grievance.
Ji Hanlin looked down at her, his Adam's apple rolling slightly.
Even though Wen Qianning kept saying she loved him, and all this should have been enough to reassure him, he didn't know why he always felt so insecure. How long would this love last? She used to love snuggling up to him with a smile, but in the blink of an eye, she could break up.
It's not like he hasn't seen her withdrawing before... So now, the more she acted coquettishly, the more he felt like it was a dream that would shatter at the slightest touch.
Ji Hanlin looked down at her, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, then he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his hands tightening a little.
"Actually, I've never been sure." He still held her calmly, his tone expressionless, his eyes sinking deeper and deeper. "You leaned on me last night, and asked me this morning if we were back together... But I'm afraid if I tell you, you'll get bored one day. I don't dare believe it again."
Wen Qianning looked at him quietly. She was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled, a look that was different from her usual coquettish expression.
"If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do..." Before she finished her words, she stood on tiptoe and took the initiative to kiss him.
A gentle kiss fell on Ji Hanlin's lips, without much skill, like some kind of solemn promise.
Ji Hanlin was stunned. He kept his eyes open, as if he couldn't believe that she would be so proactive. He didn't come to his senses until her lips gently left him.
The girl tilted her head to look at him, her smile pure and flawless, every word clear: "This is my answer now. It doesn't matter if you don't believe it now... I will make you believe it."
He lowered his eyes, and the emotions that had been suppressed in his eyes loosened. After a while, he whispered, "Okay."
Ji Hanlin hugged her, his palm gently pressing against her back. Wen Qianning leaned against him, eyes closed, trying to preserve this subtle tranquility a little longer, when an electronic voice rang in her mind:
[Ding Dong! The system has determined that the host's remediation mission has been completed.]

They both attended the same university in the same city, though different, but not far from each other. Wen Qianning came from a well-off family and naturally didn't want to be squeezed into a cramped university dormitory. So, her parents took matters into their own hands and rented her a luxurious apartment near the university, well-appointed and conveniently located.
One evening, Wen Qianning was about to go out, but before he took a step, the door opposite happened to open at the same time.
She looked up subconsciously, but when she saw the person opposite her, she froze in place.
Wen Qianning: “?”
Her eyes widened, the corners of her mouth twitched, and after a long while she managed to squeeze out a sentence from her throat, "...Ji Hanlin, why are you across from me?!"
He looked calm as always, and just closed the door gently, as if he had expected her to ask this.
"I live here," he said. "I just moved in not long ago."
"You--" She stared at him, her words stuck in her throat, her mind full of question marks.
She had only told Ji Hanlin the approximate location of the apartment, but she didn't expect that Ji Hanlin had found out her specific floor from somewhere and quietly rented an apartment opposite her.
After school started, Ji Hanlin studied university courses while getting involved in some affairs of the Jiang family company. He was usually very busy.
Even so, he would go home almost every night to cook, or rather, to cook for that delicate girl.
Wen Qianning has always been reluctant to enter the kitchen and doesn't want to hire a nanny, so she often goes to Ji Hanlin's house for meals, and later it gradually evolved into showing up at a fixed time every day.
As time went by, her presence began to appear more frequently in Ji Hanlin's apartment... The cushions on the sofa were changed to her favorite color, and there was a set of pink toothbrushes and her skin care products by the sink.
Unconsciously, Wen Qianning's daily necessities went from being brought in occasionally to being stored in fixed places, and eventually even the large and small bags of clothes had a dedicated place. Why did it feel like the two of them were living together?
Even...even if Ji Hanlin did nothing, sometimes Wen Qianning still felt that she was tempted by male beauty and would stay at his place overnight.
When Ji Hanlin came out of the shower, he saw the girl in a suspender nightgown lying on his bed playing with her cell phone. Her long hair was hanging down, and her face was bare and her skin was soft, as if she was tempting him to commit a crime.
Perhaps her arms were numb from holding her up, so she tried to get up and change her position. As the girl's movements changed, the suspenders slipped down a little, revealing the lines of her collarbone. She didn't realize what was going on, and while wrapping herself in the quilt, she asked him, "What time is your class tomorrow?"
Ji Hanlin stood still, his eyes sliding across her exposed shoulder before quickly moving away. He lowered his head to pour water, his voice low, "Ningning."
She raised her eyes: "Hmm?"
"Could you please not dress like this in front of me?"
Wen Qianning lazily said, "It's not like I haven't seen it before."
His Adam's apple moved slightly and he chuckled, but he didn't say anything more. He walked over, took her pillow, and rolled her into his arms with the quilt.
Wen Qianning was pressed against his chest, the straps slipping below her shoulders, barely holding her up. She was about to quietly move back a little, but the next second, Ji Hanlin grabbed her waist.
"Are you trying to seduce me on purpose?" He narrowed his eyes, his voice a little hoarse.
Wen Qianning felt so wronged. What had she done to her? But it was no use. Just as she was about to open her mouth to protest, Ji Hanlin pinched her chin and kissed her, blocking out all her words.
She was held in his arms, the straps had already slipped off, and her struggles became futile, even her strength was being drained away by him bit by bit.
She couldn't remember how her clothes disappeared. She only remembered that she was crying while being pressed on the bed by Ji Hanlin. She wanted to argue but her mind was a mess.
In the end, she collapsed in his arms, hanging on by a thread.
Wen Qianning bit the corner of the quilt and turned over: ...The male protagonist is so hateful.
