Chapter 152: Book: Qiao Rui Xuyi (4)
Chapter 152
There were only Qiao Rui and Lu Jian in the dormitory, the other two hadn\'t arrived yet.
The two men were talking about the same topic.
Lu Jian had his legs casually resting on the table: "After all that fuss, you guys aren\'t a couple?"
Qiao Rui: "Cut the crap, help me analyze what I did wrong? In the past, we would reluctantly part ways, but today she completely ignored me."
Lu Jian: "Did you say something you shouldn\'t have?"
Qiao Rui solemnly swore: "Absolutely not, I\'m very tactful with my words."
As a lifelong single, Lu Jian was well-versed in analyzing other people\'s relationships. He said, "Then there\'s only one possibility."
"Speak."
"She doesn\'t like you anymore and feels too awkward to directly say it, so she\'s slowly distancing herself to give you a hint not to bother her."
Qiao Rui was very dissatisfied with this answer. He suddenly stood up, "Get lost!"
But Lu Jian forcibly pressed him back into the chair, "Wait, I\'m not finished yet."
Qiao Rui was a little impatient now and wasn\'t in a good mood towards him either: "Hurry up and spit it out if you\'ve got more to say, I\'m going to take a shower."
"There\'s also a possibility that—" Lu Jian deliberately left a cliffhanger in a mysterious manner, "She likes you, but doesn\'t dare to confess to you and is waiting for you to do it."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Rui\'s attitude instantly reversed by 180 degrees, "That\'s right! That\'s what I think too."
Lu Jian: "..."
Lu Jian: "Why do you only listen to the nice things to hear?"
Qiao Rui ignored his mocking and said, "Quick, give me some tips on how I should confess? Will it startle her?"
Lu Jian glanced at him and said, "Is she made of paper?"
...
Room 305 dormitory.
"Ah!" Fang Chuning let out a roar, then grabbed Xu Yi\'s shoulders and shook her back and forth, resenting the iron for not becoming steel as she asked, "Aren\'t you too cruel? You didn\'t even say goodbye and just ran back here?"
"No no—" Xu Yi\'s brain hurt from her shaking, "I was really confused at the time, and then—"
"Stop making excuses!"
Xu Yi dejectedly asked: "Was I really too excessive?"
"What do you think?" Fang Chuning heaved a long sigh, "Don\'t blame me for not warning you, this type of guy is the most sought-after in college. If you don\'t lock him down now, then after school starts, humph humph."
"..."
Xu Yi was silent for a moment before finally hesitantly saying, "You mean...I should confess?"
"Yes! School is about to start soon, when else are you going to confess if not now?"
"...I\'ve never confessed before."
"What\'s there to be afraid of? You two aren\'t separated by a thin veil but a piece of paper that\'s about to break."
Fang Chuning moved closer to her and asked, "Let me ask you, do you like him or not?"
Xu Yi didn\'t hesitate and nodded heavily: "I like him."
...
With his arms crossed, Lu Jian was relaxed in demeanor. Seeing Qiao Rui\'s flustered and tangled state, as if bewitched, he found it amusing and couldn\'t help asking: "Do you really like her?"
"I almost f*cking love her to death," Qiao Rui was very serious, "I wish I could be with her every second, when I don\'t see her, my heart feels so itchy I can\'t stand it."
"Since you mention it, with a girl like her, her looks, rest assured, there must be a lot of people chasing her."
Qiao Rui\'s pupils shuddered, but he soon calmed down again, "Do they understand her like I do? Apart from her parents, I know her best in this world."
Lu Jian had an "oh you naive boy" expression. "Don\'t joke around. What\'s the use of understanding her so well? For some people, all it takes is a glance to collide and spark flames. Boom boom boom!"
Qiao Rui was clearly provoked. He said solemnly, "I\'m going to confess tomorrow!"
Since Lu Jian couldn\'t stand his earlier reluctance to confess, now that his goal was achieved, he patted Qiao Rui on the shoulder and got up, "I wish you success, I\'m going to take a shower first."
"Hey hey hey, I\'ll go first. I\'m tired after a whole day!"
Lu Jian closed the bathroom door, "What are you showering for? Hurry up and ask the girl out in case she has no availability tomorrow."
"..."
...
Room 305 dormitory.
Fang Chuning said on the side, "Confessing can come later, first get him to go out with you."
Xu Yi: "...Okay, are there any less crowded attractions in G City? How about I ask him out to play?"
Fang Chuning waved her hand, "No, he definitely likes you. Be more direct at this point and just say you miss him. That will definitely strike his heart."
"....That\'s too straightforward, I haven\'t—"
Fang Chuning interrupted her, "Please don\'t forget that you just left the guy alone downstairs at the dorm building without even saying goodbye. He must think you don\'t like him and might want to give up or is angry now. Being straightforward now can win him back."
What is meant by there being greater heights beyond every mountain?
Xu Yi had always felt her IQ was quite high and that it didn\'t matter if her EQ was a little low. After all, how could there be such perfect people in this world?
Turns out there really are.
At least those who tested into G University are all those showcased on the honor rolls at their respective high schools.
Not only was Fang Chuning\'s IQ high, her EQ was even higher.
Xu Yi hadn\'t considered this at all. And after Fang Chuning said it, she felt it made a lot of sense.
"If you\'re embarrassed to send it, I\'ll send it for you. Come on baby, you\'ll be off the singles market in no time."
"....I\'ll send it myself."
Xu Yi took out her phone from her pocket and opened the chat with Qiao Rui.
She carefully typed out each word in the input box—
【Tomorrow you—
Just then, unexpectedly and without any warning, a message popped up in the chat from Qiao Rui that he sent over.
The timing was just right.
Qiao Rui: 【What\'s wrong with you today?】
After seeing this message, Fang Chuning heaved a long sigh and lamented to the heavens: "My god, he\'s too perfect!"
Xu Yi: "......"
She immediately deleted those few words and replied: 【Nothing\'s wrong, I was just a bit tired earlier】
After thinking about it, she sent another sentence: 【Sorry】
Qiao Rui: 【Don\'t want to hear that】
Qiao Rui: 【You\'re always right in front of me】
Seeing this message, Xu Yi felt her heartbeat almost skip. She felt like countless deer were prancing up and down.
She replied: 【I still want to see you, tomorrow you—
Just as she was typing, another new message popped up from the other end to interrupt her.
Qiao Rui: 【Tomorrow afternoon, you\'ll still be mine, okay?】
Xu Yi had the freshman orientation meeting to attend tomorrow morning to prepare for the new semester.
So Qiao Rui directly booked her afternoon.
Xu Yi bit her lower lip and replied: 【Okay】
The conversation could have ended there, but Xu Yi also didn\'t know what got into her. She was reluctant to put down her phone for a long time and typed out one more sentence in the chat box: 【Not just tomorrow】
Send.
