Chapter 14: The Stars Are Different From Last Night
It was a rare foggy day. When I caught a glimpse of the distant scenery, I was surprised by the beauty that was hard to describe. I never expected that the foggy gray sky and the hazy distant mountains could be so stunning.
That day, the sky was clear and the air was fresh, with a gentle morning breeze.
According to the school's sequential arrangement, the students of the School of Economics and Management will undergo a unified physical examination.
Feng Yichen was wearing a white top and black bottom autumn sportswear today. The simple yet stylish outfit made him look particularly refreshing.
At this time, he and Xu Tongshang were queuing up to measure their height and weight.
After Xu Tongshang measured and registered, he stood by and waited for Feng Yichen. When he saw the value on the display, he exclaimed to Feng Yichen in surprise:
"I'm 1.89 meters tall and weigh 78 kilograms. It's true that I look thinner when I'm dressed. My muscles are really well-built."
Feng Yichen just smiled softly when he heard this, and didn't intend to pay attention to his exaggerated tone of exclamation.
A long time passed, and when the indoor projects were completed, everyone came to the playground under the guidance of the teacher to carry out other physical examination items one by one.
At this time, there were still many students playing on the playground.
Feng Yichen saw a familiar figure in the crowd, and his eyes automatically focused on it.
Chi Shu, who was sitting on the lawn in the middle of the playground inside the running track, was wearing a dark grey sportswear with side stripes. Her roommate Su Zhouxue was holding her arm affectionately and they were sitting on the lawn together.
Near them, a pair of badminton players were engaged in a two-on-two matchup. One of the players was Chi Shu's other roommates: Jiangnan and Shi Jingan. These two weren't just college classmates and roommates; they had a close relationship beforehand. Their connection was truly remarkable, a bond that made one sigh, "Fate is indescribable."
After Feng Yichen had completed all the physical test items and registered them, he didn't rush back. He just sat with Xu Tongshang in the open space outside the track and chatted, his eyes fixed on a spot in the middle of the playground.
The people participating in the duel had a lot of fun, and those watching from the sidelines also enjoyed the show.
However, as if he felt that gaze, Chi Shu suddenly turned his head and took a look. As if they had telepathy, his sight happened to connect with Feng Yichen's across the playground somewhere in the void. A moment of surprise flashed in the eyes of both of them, and then they smiled knowingly.
As a bystander, Xu Tongshang also clearly saw the silent interaction between the two of them. Then he looked at Feng Yichen's eyes, which were already filled with tenderness, and asked, "Aren't you going over?"
Feng Yichen slowly withdrew his gaze and calmly replied, "No."
"What is your relationship with her? Childhood sweethearts or boyfriend and girlfriend?" Xu Tongshang asked with a little confusion.
Hearing this question, Feng Yichen turned his head to look at the person who asked the question, and said calmly:
"Thank you for your good words. Please let her and I become the latter relationship as soon as possible."
Xu Tongshang was a little confused by this. "No way, Yichen, I see you treat her special. I thought you two were already together."
Feng Yichen suddenly felt a bitter taste on his tongue: "You don't know, I take one step forward, and she takes ten steps back. I don't know what to do anymore. For her, maybe waiting is the best option."
As soon as he heard what he said, Xu Tongshang was about to say something to comfort him, but suddenly he saw a flash of sharp vigilance in his eyes.
I immediately followed his gaze and saw that it was the boy who was playing badminton just now. After finishing the game, he walked straight to the lawn next to Chi Shu and sat down. He kept trying to find topics to chat with Chi Shu. The look in his eyes made it clear that this boy had ulterior motives.
Seeing this, Xu Tongshang's tone lost its previous fluency and ease, and he only said euphemistically:
"Chi Shu, you wouldn't do... that or something, right?"
Feng Yichen's tone was firm: "She won't."
At the same time, he calmly put himself in others' shoes and gently reminded them, "But don't make such judgments again. If you have someone you like now, I believe you wouldn't want your love to be easily judged."
Xu Tongshang knew that his previous speculation was wrong, so he spoke frankly:
"Well, I'm sorry, Yichen. I apologize to you. But there's one thing I still have to tell you. You can be sure that she won't like anyone else, but do you dare to bet that other people don't like her? She doesn't understand men's minds, but don't we understand them ourselves?"
The conversation came to an abrupt halt because of this question, and both of them seemed to be lost in thought.
But a moment later, Xu Tongshang couldn't help but sigh, "Yichen, I'm actually quite envious of you. It's such a blessing to meet a girl you like so much so early in life! When I meet someone I like, I'll probably be the type to bravely pursue love."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere inexplicably relaxed a little, and the sky seemed to brighten a bit.
Feng Yichen chuckled and nodded: "Then I wish you good luck and hope you find your true love soon."
