Chapter 28
For myself?
Jiang Yi never expected that this guy would actually repeat a year of high school.
When he first mentioned it to her, she thought it was just a joke.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel annoyed, so he raised his hand and slapped him. After slapping him, he realized that his action was inappropriate. Xu Wang looked at him with a smile, and the others looked at them in shock.
Jiang Yi felt a little embarrassed. She opened her mouth, her ears turning red involuntarily. Not daring to look Xu Wang in the eye, she said, "Um... I have to go back to my dorm."
After saying that, he quickened his pace and took several steps faster.
I'm shy.
Xu Wang couldn't help but smile, quickened his pace, and caught up with him.
Jiang Yi also felt that leaving them behind like this seemed a bit inappropriate, so she came back. Looking at the handsome face of the boy next to her, she still felt something was off...
She took a deep breath and after a long while, she finally spoke, "Why...why do you insist on repeating a grade?"
Even if... even if he really had feelings for her, there was no need to go through the trouble of repeating a year of high school.
Studying for another year is so tough.
Meeting her concerned gaze, the boy raised an eyebrow and asked with a smirk, "Concerned about me?"
Jiang Yi did mean that, but seeing the man's smug look, she didn't want to admit it. She turned her head away, avoiding his eyes, and said, "No, I just think you're not very smart."
Xu Wang was amused.
He was the top scorer in the college entrance examination, so how could he be associated with being unintelligent?
He strolled leisurely beside her, watching the dappled sunlight filtering through the gaps in the sycamore trees and dancing on the girl's shoulders. He smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that hard... Those questions, they're always the same content, nothing new."
Jiang Yi: "..."
She was speechless at his arrogant tone.
However, the guilt I felt has indeed faded a lot.
During her afternoon nap, her roommates saw her lying on the bed sighing.
Why are you so worried now that you've seen such a handsome guy?
Seeing this, her roommates looked at each other, then climbed up together, determined to help her out.
Jiang Yi was sighing with her head resting on her arm when she turned her head and saw all her roommates crowding around her, which startled her.
What are you doing?
Her roommates huddled around, gossiping, and asked, "Didn't you go see your handsome guy today? Why do you look so unhappy?"
Jiang Yi couldn't figure it out on her own, so since her roommates had come up, she told them about her troubles.
After hearing this, the roommates looked at each other and then covered their faces.
They all looked at her as if she were an idiot.
No, is this girl really that clueless? Everyone else noticed it, but she can't?
Guan Nini was afraid that she had been too subtle and the girl wouldn't understand, so she said directly, "Do you remember the last time he came? At that time, I could clearly see that he was interested in you."
Jiang Yi: "..."
She thought for a moment and said, "He just came here to see a friend."
Others: ...
Guan Nini really wanted to crack open her head and see if it was filled with water.
After taking a deep breath to calm himself down, he asked again, "Is this friend you?"
Jiang Yi lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought.
So, that time, was it really someone coming to find me?
Jiang Yi wasn't stupid; she naturally knew that what they were saying might be true.
It's just that I don't want to believe it.
When her roommates saw her sitting silently on the bed, looking thoughtful, they knew she had figured it out. They quickly climbed down, leaving her alone to sort things out.
But Jiang Yi didn't understand.
The myriad thoughts in my mind were like a tangled mess of seaweed, all intertwined and becoming more and more chaotic the more I thought about them.
She scratched her hair in frustration and lay down.
I've decided to give up.
No matter why they come, we'll meet them head-on, whether they're soldiers or water.
For the next few days, Jiang Yi didn't see Xu Wang again. She was busy with her studies, going to the lab building, library, and cafeteria every day, while Xu Wang was busy with military training.
Of course, she was deliberately avoiding him.
After all, the sudden confession caught her off guard and left her a little flustered and at a loss, unsure of what to do.
That day, when she went to the cafeteria with her roommate, they ran into them, who had just finished military training.
The young man was wearing camouflage, and his forehead was sweaty from training. But on Xu Wang, it didn't look sloppy at all; instead, it gave him an inexplicable youthful handsomeness.
Seeing her carrying a plate to find a seat, Xu Wangli stood not far away and called out with a smile, "Senior."
This makes her look damn well-behaved.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yi knew that he wasn't an obedient person.
She gave a dry laugh, held up the tray with chicken cutlet, beef and potato, rice and vegetables, and said, "I'm having this with my roommates."
The meaning was clear: he shouldn't come looking for her.
Xu Wangyi understood and nodded. A little while later, he went to queue up with his close friends.
He is tall, so tall that he stands out even in a crowd.
Jiang Yi could easily spot his figure from behind in the crowd.
Her roommates were watching her, so she quickly looked away and went with them to find seats.
Not long after they sat down, Jiang Yi saw Xu Wang and the others looking for seats. Just then, she looked away. A little while later, she saw the people next to her leave and they sat down next to her.
However, neither of them spoke much throughout the entire process; it was mostly their roommates who did the talking.
