The ears are a very sensitive place.
Ling Shen was so close now, speaking right in her ear, his warm breath brushing against Qian Sui's earlobe.
As if struck by lightning, Qian Sui's entire body went numb, and she lost her balance, collapsing into Ling Shen's arms.
Ling Shen then hugged her.
Zhang Shaochuan was about to turn around and leave.
But as soon as Qian Sui moved, Ling Shen reached out and hugged her, causing the curtains that were originally blocking their view to move.
Zhang Shaochuan stopped in his tracks when he saw the curtains move.
He stared at the curtain, taking small steps toward it.
"Chitose, is that you?"
Zhang Shaochuan asked tentatively.
As Zhang Shaochuan spoke, he slowly moved closer to the curtains.
As Chisui heard footsteps approaching, she tensed up again.
What should we do?
If Zhang Shaochuan sees her with Ling Shen, how should she explain it?
Although there was nothing between Qian Sui and Ling Shen, Qian Sui knew that Zhang Shaochuan didn't like Ling Shen, and he would be unhappy if Zhang Shaochuan found out that she was with Ling Shen.
There's no need for Qian Sui to coax Zhang Shaochuan.
But she had eaten a few meals with Zhang Shaochuan after all.
Chisui was terrified and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Compared to her nervousness, Ling Shen showed no reaction at all. He remained leisurely, watching Qian Sui with amusement, seemingly enjoying seeing her flustered state.
what to do?
However, Qian Sui was anxious, while Ling Shen seemed more relaxed.
Qian Sui was somewhat annoyed. If she weren't afraid of being discovered by Zhang Shaochuan, she would have definitely taught Ling Shen a lesson.
But now, Qian Sui's mind is all on Zhang Shaochuan, and she is afraid that Zhang Shaochuan will see them.
At this moment, Zhang Shaochuan had already reached the curtains, reached out, and grabbed them.
Chitose clearly saw that the curtains had been grabbed and that she would be dragged away in the next moment.
We're doomed!
Qian Sui closed her eyes resignedly, already thinking about how to explain it to Zhang Shaochuan.
But at this critical moment, the librarian's voice rang out in the distance.
She asked, "What are you doing, classmate?"
Zhang Shaochuan paused, his hand gripping the curtains, upon hearing the librarian's voice.
Zhang Shaochuan turned to the librarian and said, "I'm looking for someone."
Qian Sui, who was separated from Zhang Shaochuan by a curtain, heard the conversation between Zhang Shaochuan and the librarian and her heart was in her throat.
The librarian seemed to be thinking about something, and after a moment of contemplation, asked, "Are you looking for that female student from earlier?"
Zhang Shaochuan nodded: "Yes, Auntie, have you seen her?"
The administrator said, "I think I just saw her. She seemed to have gone to the restroom, over there."
The administrator pointed in another direction.
Zhang Shaochuan glanced in the direction the administrator was pointing.
Chisui breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing what the management office said, and prayed in her heart that Zhang Shaochuan would quickly believe what the management aunt said and leave as soon as possible.
Qian Sui looked at the spot on the curtain that Zhang Shaochuan had gripped and prayed silently.
"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!"
At first, Zhang Shaochuan was a little skeptical of what the administrator said, but after thinking about it, he realized that Chisui might really have gone to the restroom.
So he said to the caretaker, "Thank you, Auntie."
After he finished speaking, he lowered the curtains and turned to walk towards the toilet.
Zhang Shaochuan has a carefree personality and can chat with anyone. He walked up to the caretaker and started chatting with her.
"Auntie, are you new here? I've never seen you before."
The aunt said, "Yes, I'm new here. You know that? It seems you really enjoy reading."
Zhang Shaochuan said, "No, it's because I often skipped class to sleep in the library."
The building manager: "......"
Zhang Shaochuan chatted with the administrator auntie and walked away.
As she listened to their footsteps and voices grow softer and softer, Chisui's heart, which had been in her throat, finally settled down.
Qian Sui's expression changed, and she suddenly pushed Ling Shen away before lifting the curtains and walking out.
Qian Sui held a book in one hand and put the other hand on her hip, her beautiful eyes glaring angrily at Ling Shen.
How could you do this!
Ling Shen, who was abruptly pushed away, helplessly spread his hands: "What's wrong with me? Aren't you also afraid of being discovered?"
Upon reflection, it's true.
Even if Ling Shen hadn't hidden her away, Qian Sui would have pulled Ling Shen to hide as soon as she heard Zhang Shaochuan coming.
It seems unreasonable for Qian Sui to point at Ling Shen and blame him now.
Qian Sui snorted irritably, not wanting to talk to Ling Shen anymore, and turned to leave.
This time, Ling Shen didn't stop him, but stayed by Qian Sui's side.
Chitose found the book, but she had almost finished reading it last time, and she wanted to find another one, so she looked around the bookshelves.
As Qian Sui searched for a book, Ling Shen casually followed behind her, one hand in his pocket.
When Qian Sui was looking at books on lower shelves, Ling Shen would wait by her side. When Qian Sui wanted to reach for books on higher shelves, Ling Shen would help her reach the books she couldn't reach.
Ling Shen waited silently until Qian Sui finished selecting the books before saying, "Now can you tell me why you were avoiding me?"
Qian Sui was holding two books in her arms, one was a cookbook and the other was an ancient poem with a very old cover. She looked down at the books and repeated what she had just said.
"You know it yourself."
That same phrase again.
Ling Shen was both amused and exasperated. He couldn't help but reach out and rub Qian Sui's head, then said, "Speak properly. Tell me what I did wrong. You're essentially sentencing me to death without telling me what crime I committed."
