Xiao Xiang Jin Li

Er Si Ba: I'd rather you owe me than settle that…

"He's busy, he doesn't have time."

The young girl refused outright.

Meng Xiyao pressed on, "No matter how busy he is, he has to eat, right?

"If You Ran's boyfriend can treat her to a meal, surely your boyfriend won't refuse?"

Wen Tingxue: "..."

"He will," Yu Wenli said, swiping his card to enter the dormitory building, his voice suddenly ethereal.

"After National Day."

"..."

The young girl glared at him secretly, and he offered a reassuring look with a smile.

Hmph.

A fox!

Wen Tingxue cursed inwardly, then calmly repeated his words.

Meng Xiyao's eyes lit up instantly, "Okay, I'm holding you to it, no backing out!"

"Oh my goodness!"

Lu Youran, who had just hung up with her boyfriend, exclaimed.

"What did he call you? Honey! Your boyfriend spoils you so much! Mine doesn't.

"If I ask him to call me 'baby,' it's like asking for his life!

"And your boyfriend's voice is incredibly beautiful!

"Do you have any secret recipes? I want to try them on my boyfriend."

Wen Tingxue asked him, and he replied, "It's natural."

When she relayed the answer to Lu Youran, Lu Youran threw her head back in despair, "Ah! My poor audiophile heart!

"I want a boyfriend with such a nice voice too!"

"Just get a new one then," Meng Xiyao chimed in.

Lu Youran immediately sobered up, "That won't do! He's someone I pursued for a long time, and we're childhood sweethearts!"

"He's good in every way, except his voice isn't quite right, not the type I like."

After speaking, she chuckled, "I love Snow's boyfriend's voice, it's right in my heart!

"But I can't tell my boyfriend about this, he'll be angry."

Wen Tingxue was amused by her, "It's fine, as the saying goes.

"Someone with a pleasant voice might not be good-looking, but your boyfriend must be extremely handsome."

Yu Wenli: "…?"

What did she mean by that?

Lu Youran's eyes indeed turned starry, "Of course!

"To be honest, my boyfriend is the campus heartthrob of our school!"

Campus heartthrob?

Meng Xiyao's interest was immediately piqued, "Do you have photos?"

Lu Youran excitedly said, "Wait, I'll send them to the group chat."

The four had already created a dorm group chat.

Meng Xiyao zoomed in on the photo.

And zoomed in again.

Her eyes were full of curiosity.

"He is indeed very handsome."

Worthy of being a fish in her pond.

-

Pho Training Camp.

Xu Kexin got out of the taxi, carrying a cake.

Before she could even see the surrounding buildings clearly, she was already in Xing Jiahe's embrace.

The usual bear hug.

Suffocating and constricting.

But very warm.

"I missed you so much…"

The boy buried his head in her hair, his voice muffled.

With a hint of petulant grievance.

Xu Kexin chuckled and stroked his head.

"Why are you like a child? Haven't seen each other for a few days, and you're already acting spoiled?"

"It hasn't been a few days."

Xing Jiahe let go of her and said face-to-face, "It's been seventy-one days. I've been counting every single day."

Xu Kexin froze.

She had taught him, and she knew he wasn't very good with numbers.

He was even more casual about time, so she hadn't expected…

He remembered the days of their separation so clearly.

"You…"

In the night breeze, Xu Kexin licked her slightly dry lips.

"Why remember this?"

Xing Jiahe secretly reached for her hand, cautiously hooking his little finger around hers.

Then, bit by bit, he held her small hand.

"I wanted to see you, and I wanted to know how long I would have to wait to see you."

He lowered his eyes to look at her, his eyes filled with palpable seriousness.

Xu Kexin felt a warmth in her chest, as if something was warming and enveloping her.

Not a trace of cold could get in.

Afraid she would be cold, Xing Jiahe took her to their usual coffee shop.

"The tiramisu here is especially delicious."

He wasn't an extravagant person.

Before, he didn't care much about food and drink.

Now, he wanted to save money for Xu Kexin, so he was a bit stingy with his own expenses.

But he was very generous to Xu Kexin.

"My parents are busy, and I'm too lazy for them to drive me, so I came by myself."

Qiao Xixi took a sip of water and said, "Actually, this is much less than before. Most of it has been sent by express."

Wen Tingxue: "…"

Wen Tingxue: "Are you planning to move your home into the dorm?"

Qiao Xixi laughed heartily, "Pretty much! University is so free, of course, we have to have fun!"

"Stop fooling around," Xu Kexin patted her, "Let's talk business. You're here, does Mu Chen know?"

"Right," Wen Tingxue was gossipy, "Yu Wenli said Mu Chen has been in the capital for a while, didn't he say he was coming to pick you up?"

Qiao Xixi snorted, "Don't mention him!"

The two: "?"
