Cao Bao's honest face first showed a silly smile, but then it dimmed as his gaze fell upon Xia Xiaoyu's back.
His heart tightened slightly. He remembered a time in high school when they were at the same table for lunch, along with a few handsome boys. Xia Xiaoyu had told him not to eat with them anymore.
For someone like him, who viewed everything simply, just being able to see her was perhaps the greatest satisfaction. Sometimes, burying his true feelings deep inside might be better.
"What are you standing there for? Let's go..." Liu Feifei urged.
"I'm not going. Xia Xiaoyu doesn't want me to eat with you guys!"
Cao Bao once again displayed that harmless, silly smile and shook his head.
"You... pig-headed! Ugh, forget it."
Faced with someone who could only smile foolishly, Liu Feifei truly didn't know what else to say.
She could only sigh and helplessly turn to leave...
Back at her seat, Liu Feifei felt a bit frustrated and angrily finished her meal.
"I'm done. That blockhead is just like a pig—no, he's even dumber than a pig. You say he's a pig? Well, he studies hard and there aren't many in the whole school who can compare to him. Anyway, I can't say anything more about him... I'm going out for some fresh air..."
Liu Feifei put down her chopsticks and walked out of the cafeteria.
In truth, she was the only one who cared about Cao Bao's feelings; she could understand him.
"I have a class this afternoon, so you all take your time and enjoy..." Lin Xi stood up and said to the others.
After a meal, only three people remained...
After eating, Xia Xiaoyu, Tian Xiaojing, and Chen Mumu exited the cafeteria.
"Tian Xiaojing and I are going out to buy something. Xia Xiaoyu, since you have nothing to do, why don't we go together..."
At the entrance of the cafeteria, Chen Mumu paused and then spoke to Xia Xiaoyu.
"I'll pass. I want to stroll around the University..." Xia Xiaoyu smiled and politely declined; she was not a girl who enjoyed shopping.
In modern terms, she could be described as a homebody.
After chatting for a bit, seeing that Xia Xiaoyu had made up her mind, Chen Mumu and Tian Xiaojing waved goodbye to her and headed towards the University gate.
At noon, during this season, the sunlight was not too strong; it felt warm on the skin and quite comfortable.
Facing the sky, with its blue expanse dotted with ribbon-like white clouds, the campus was filled with vitality, enhancing the atmosphere to its fullest.
When Xia Xiaoyu turned around, she suddenly stopped. Cao Bao, who had just come out of the cafeteria, also looked stunned. He stared blankly at a face that seemed like an old friend.
He liked this person in front of him; yes, it was a genuine affection. However, when it came to romantic matters, he felt clueless—he simply didn't understand what others liked.
This kind of love was buried deep within his heart; perhaps only in the quiet of night would he sit on the rooftop, gazing into the dark sky, lost in thought.
Both felt a bit awkward. Xia Xiaoyu was the sweet and obedient beauty, while Cao Bao was just a poor boy from the mountains—at least that's how he saw himself now.
He did not expect her to like him; his only wish was simply to see her!
“…”
The two of them fell silent for a moment, yet their footsteps moved in unison toward a single direction. They walked side by side in silence, not saying a word.
The atmosphere was heavy, filled with awkwardness, and the air was thick with an unshakeable tension.
The cherry blossom petals on the ground formed a warm path, and they quietly walked forward together.
“You must be thirsty; I’ll go buy some water!”
Cao Bao, with his head down, could no longer bear the increasingly tense atmosphere around them. He said this and ran off.
…
Xia Xiaoyu wanted to stop him, but he had already run far away.
“Hey… classmate, could you tell me where the school library is?”
Startled by the sudden voice, Xia Xiaoyu turned to look behind her.
She didn’t even realize when a handsome young man had appeared behind her. With deep-set eyes and movements that exuded an otherworldly noble aura, he wore a dignified Zhongshan Suit—simple yet elegant.
His height, demeanor, and looks made him the kind of person every girl dreams of.
He was like a ray of light that could capture any girl's attention, and the innate charm he possessed clearly indicated that this person before her must be the son of some high-ranking official!
"Hello..."
It is said that heroes often struggle when faced with beautiful women, and how can a beauty not show some favor when encountering a hero?
"The library is to the right of the office building. Just walk straight and then turn left..." Xia Xiaoyu replied kindly while pointing in the direction.
However, the man before her did not even glance at the direction Xia Xiaoyu indicated; instead, he focused his gaze on her.
"Your name is Xia Xiaoyu, and you live in Dorm 514. Bed number 4..."
The man maintained a mysterious smile and spoke kindly.
"You..."
Xia Xiaoyu looked at him in surprise, somewhat in disbelief.
How did he know so much? She had never seen him before...
"My name is Leng Yuchen..."
The man continued, warmly stating his name. From Xia Xiaoyu's expression, it was clear he had already received his answer.
