The boy who was bunking below Qi Yu asked, "Qi Yu, Yu Rou called you in the group chat, did you see it?"
Qi Yu said coldly: "Yeah."
"Then why don't you ask?"
Qi Yu: "Don't ask."
"Hey, aren't you curious?"
Qi Yu didn't mention that he had already added Yu Rou as a friend. He turned over and said, "I'm not curious. It's late. I'm going to sleep."
"Are you going to sleep already?"
Qi Yu didn't answer again.
The others murmured, "Why are you asking? Play two games before going to sleep. Qi Yu doesn't want to play, so let's go to a five-man team."
"Five-person squads are dangerous. Without Qi Yu, there's no one to play jungle!"
"I'll fight. I just trained the monkey a few days ago."
"Forget it..."
Qi Yu closed his eyes and listened to them talking, slowly calming down. He looked at his phone and there were no new messages.
With a sneer on his lips, he asked himself sarcastically in his heart: What are you waiting for?
His roommates were always swearing while playing games, but they thought he was asleep, so they deliberately lowered their voices. After twelve o'clock, they finished playing games, took a shower and went to bed, but Qi Yu was still wide awake and not sleepy at all.
He glanced at his phone again, his face darkening, and then he turned it off.
His lips still ached slightly, and it felt very similar to when Yu Rou kissed him, burning and unbearable.
It was almost dawn when Qi Yu fell into a drowsy sleep, but his sleep was not peaceful and he had a dream.
In his dream, he went back to a year ago.
He and Yu Rou had just entered the first year of high school.
The two of them did not sit at the same table, but during history class, Yu Rou would switch seats with the classmate next to him and sit with him.
Yu Rou loved playing with his fingers the most, so she would not let them go during class. She would pinch his fingers under the desk, touching them for a while, and then holding them tightly.
She never hid her emotions, and looked at him with a smile on her face.
He kept looking at the blackboard, his left hand held by her, so he could only put his right hand on the desk, taking notes and marking key points with one hand, and looking at the teacher on the podium from time to time.
Perhaps because she saw that he was listening to the class too attentively, Yu Rou drew a heart on the palm of his hand and slid her nails across the back of his hand, which felt itchy and titillating.
In the dream, when the teacher was writing on the blackboard, he suddenly turned around and stared at Yu Rou, grabbed her hand with his backhand, brought it to his mouth and kissed it, then gently bit her little finger.
Yu Rou felt pain and looked at him coquettishly. Her face gradually turned red and her ears turned pink.
At this time, he looked at Yu Rou with doting eyes, moved his lips, and said, "Be good, don't make trouble."
The school wake-up bell rang, and Qi Yu woke up from his dream. He looked around, and the emotions in the dream slowly faded away. He remembered every scene clearly, but he told himself that they were all fake.
"Why did Qi Yu get up so late today? Isn't he usually the first one to get up? He was still in bed even when the alarm rang."
"Yeah, that's weird."
"Qi Yu, get up, it's time for morning self-study."
"Yeah." Qi Yu lifted the quilt, took a deep breath, got out of bed, went to the faucet and washed his face with cold water.
…
Yu Rou came earlier today than the previous two days. When Qi met her in the classroom, he happened to see her putting a bag of steamed dumplings and a glass of milk on his desk.
Qi Yu came with several other people in the dormitory. They also saw it and winked at Qi Yu and made a fuss.
"Tsk tsk, I want someone to bring me breakfast too."
"Just think about it."
When Yu Rou heard the voice, she looked at the classroom door and saw Qi Yu. Her expression remained unchanged and she went back to her seat as if nothing had happened.
When Qi Yu walked over, Yu Rou kept looking at him.
After last night, there was a strange atmosphere between the two of them.
When Yang Mengqi came, the first thing she asked Yu Rou was why she tagged Qi Yu in the group last night and why she didn't speak afterwards.
Although no one was talking in that group, there were several small groups in their class, with three groups of girls alone, and they had a heated discussion about this matter.
Yang Mengqi was in all three groups, and they all asked Yang Mengqi to go and ask the next day.
Of course, Yang Mengqi was also curious, so she came early in the morning and asked directly.
Yu Rou glanced at her and said casually, "Just tag him and see if he pays attention to me."
Yang Mengqi's eyes widened: "Huh?"
"Um."
Yang Mengqi: "That's it?"
"Yes, but he ignored me in the end. You saw it too." Yu Rou pursed her lips indifferently.
Yang Mengqi's expression became very conflicted, "Okay."
After morning self-study, everyone rushed out to the cafeteria. Yu Rou sat there without moving. She looked at the classroom door, wondering if Luo Wen would come today.
Who knew that instead of waiting for Luo Wen, I waited for someone else.
"Yu Rou, someone's looking for you."
Yu Rou frowned and saw a tall and thin boy standing at the door, looking at her shyly.
There were some other people in the classroom, and a few girls recognized the boy when they saw him.
Yang Mengqi said in surprise: "Isn't that from the first year of high school?"
Yu Rou asked Yang Mengqi, "Do you know him?"
Yang Mengqi: "I know him, he's number one in his freshman year."
"Oh." Yu Rou stood up and prepared to go out.
When she passed by Qi Yu's desk, she saw him writing on the test paper with a pen.
But the test paper was blank, without a single word.
Yang Lei asked Qi Yu: "It seems that the boy came here to confess his love. He put his hands behind his back. I guess he wants to give a gift to Yu Rou."
Qi Yu: “…”
Yang Lei: "These freshmen are so quick! It's only been a few days and they're already confessing their love. They're so brave and fearless. There were a few people in my sophomore and junior years who asked me, but I didn't dare to confess yet... Let me tell you..."
Qi Yu turned his head and looked at him with an expressionless face, which made Yang Lei shudder and get goose bumps all over his body. He shrank his neck, swallowed the next words, lowered his head and said nothing.
Yang Lei suddenly regretted why he said so much, thinking that the more he said, the more mistakes he made.
Qi Yu looked so scary, especially the look in his eyes just now, which made him feel like he was going to get frostbite.
Yang Lei didn't dare to look up. After a long while, he glanced to the side quietly. Qi Yu was staring at the corridor outside the classroom with an unfathomable expression and cold eyes.
Yang Lei followed his gaze and saw Yu Rou and the boy standing outside the window. The boy handed Yu Rou a gift bag, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Yu Rou.
When Yu Rou took the gift bag and smiled at the boy, the pen in Qi Yu's hand broke.
