If Gu Jiang continued like this, the two of them would inevitably end up in an unpleasant situation. It was better to part ways peacefully than to break up due to infidelity, at least it was their first love, leaving behind some fond memories.
"What do you think about what he just said?" Lin Jingchu tentatively asked Jiang Yuekai, his palms sweating nervously as he gripped the steering wheel.
"He always says that, misunderstanding that there's something between you and me. Don't worry, I didn't take his words to heart."
Jiang Yuekai thought Lin Jingchu was asking about this, and even comforted him a few words, "I'm sorry you've been wronged."
Lin Jingchu: "..." As expected, she still didn't think he would like her.
Never mind, she had just broken up with Gu Jiang and wouldn't be in the mood for romance anytime soon. Even if he told her now, it wouldn't have any effect. He had waited for so many years, a few more months wouldn't matter.
Anyway, Jiang Yuekai was about to go to Nan University to study, and he was taking care of Latte. There would be plenty of opportunities to cultivate their feelings in the future.
Jiang Yuekai's breakup with Gu Jiang made Lin Jingchu the happiest person, but he couldn't show it in front of Jiang Yuekai, so he could only drive with his lips pursed.
Jiang Yuekai suddenly thought of something, "However, if you find a boyfriend in the future, I won't be able to hang out with you like this anymore."
Lin Jingchu: "Hmm?"
Jiang Yuekai said, "To avoid suspicion, I'm an adult now."
Lin Jingchu said, "No need." Fearing Jiang Yuekai would continue, he added, "I won't be looking for a girlfriend for the time being."
After having dinner with Lin Jingchu, Jiang Yuekai went home to register her university choice. Lan Lan and Liang Yufeng did not interfere with her personal choices.
After registering her choice, at dinner, the family of three sat at the table, and Jiang Yuekai told them about her decision to break up with Gu Jiang.
Lan Lan was a little surprised. Although she knew the two children had had a conflict recently, she didn't expect them to break up so quickly. "What happened?"
Jiang Yuekai told them her thoughts, her reasons were very sufficient and reasonable. After finishing, she added, "I'll focus on my studies for now, and I won't think about relationships for the time being."
This idea was exactly what Liang Yufeng wanted. "Well, it's best that you have this idea."
Lan Lan smiled, and Liang Yufeng was satisfied. He wished his daughter would never like anyone else in her life but him, her old father.
Although Lan Lan was partial to Lin Jingchu, she couldn't help but worry about her daughter's feelings after the breakup. "Do you want to go out and relax?"
"I'm fine," Jiang Yuekai said with a smile, "it's just a breakup, it's not a big deal."
Lan Lan sighed, "This mindset is exactly the same as when I was young."
As expected of her daughter, she could have any shortcomings, but definitely not be a love-struck fool.
Jiang Yuekai became curious, "Were you like this when you were young? What if you broke up with my dad?"
"I was the one who dumped him," Lan Lan said, "Your dad is a love-struck fool. Fortunately, you didn't take after him."
Jiang Yuekai found it a little difficult to associate the term "love-struck fool" with Liang Yufeng, but after thinking about it, Liang Yufeng, who always had a cold face outside, cooked and made the bed when he got home. It seemed he was a little bit like that.
However, as a daughter, Jiang Yuekai very considerately defended Liang Yufeng, "My dad isn't a love-struck fool, he's just dedicated to the person he loves."
Liang Yufeng smiled when he was praised and put some meat in Jiang Yuekai's bowl. After eating the meat, Jiang Yuekai praised him again, "The meat my dad serves is delicious."
Liang Yufeng was dizzy with his daughter's praise. Lan Lan watched the scene of father and daughter showing filial affection and got goosebumps from the saccharine display.
The summer vacation after the college entrance examination passed in a flash. During these two months, Jiang Yuekai successfully received her admission letter from Nan University, traveled to three countries, and spent most of the remaining time with Lin Jingchu.
On the day of school, Lin Jingchu accompanied her to report.
Lin Jingchu was very familiar with Jiang University. He took Jiang Yuekai to the registration desk to collect her dormitory items and sent her back to her room. At that time, there were already two female classmates in the room. Jiang Yuekai introduced herself to them. While they were chatting, Lin Jingchu had already gone to make her bed.
Lin Jingchu was handsome and very popular. When he went out in the middle, his roommates gossiped, "Is that your boyfriend? He's so handsome! Is he also from our school?"
"He's not my boyfriend, he's my brother," Jiang Yuekai said.
After hearing her explanation, the roommates' eyes clearly brightened, "Does he have a girlfriend then?"
Jiang Yuekai understood their intentions. Lin Jingchu was popular, and it was normal for someone to want to pursue him, but she wouldn't reveal Lin Jingchu's privacy, so she didn't answer the question.
Before long, Lin Jingchu returned, "Here's the dormitory key. I've collected it. Now I'll take you to get your meal card."
Lin Jingchu was very familiar with the school. With him leading the way, Jiang Yuekai's enrollment procedures were completed faster than others. After getting the meal card, it was almost time for lunch. The East Canteen of Nanjiang University was famous for its delicious food. Lin Jingchu took Jiang Yuekai to the canteen. As soon as they entered, they ran into classmates from the Math Club, including Xu Yiran.
Although Xu Yiran had not been able to develop a closer relationship with Lin Jingchu, she had never let go of her feelings for him. She had also been wondering what kind of person the girl Lin Jingchu liked was. However, for such a long time, she had not seen any girls around Lin Jingchu, and she even felt that Lin Jingchu might have been lying to them before.
But now, he had someone by his side.
When the members of the Math Club saw Lin Jingchu, they went forward to talk to him. Someone asked about the person next to him, "Who is this?"
"Jiang Yuekai," Lin Jingchu said Jiang Yuekai's name but did not introduce her identity.
Jiang Yuekai had always known that Lin Jingchu was quite cold to others, so she took the initiative to introduce herself to them, "I'm his sister, a freshman who just enrolled. Nice to meet you all."
As soon as Jiang Yuekai spoke, Xu Yiran recognized her voice. Even though almost a year had passed, she could still remember the call Lin Jingchu made at the KTV in Kyoto!
The person on the other end of the phone spoke with this tone.
So her name was Jiang Yuekai. Earlier, she said Lin Jingchu was her brother. It seemed they were childhood sweethearts. Jiang Yuekai didn't seem to have any feelings for Lin Jingchu, and Lin Jingchu probably hadn't officially confessed to Jiang Yuekai yet.
The man was interested, but the woman was not. Xu Yiran suddenly felt that she had hope again.
Xu Yiran did not speak to Jiang Yuekai but stared at her and observed her for a long time. Jiang Yuekai was very beautiful, the stunning and dazzling type. She was about 1.7 meters tall, and her chin was slightly raised when she walked, indicating that she came from an extraordinary background.
However, this was not surprising. Someone who could be a childhood sweetheart with Lin Jingchu must have a good background.
