Sheng Yanxiao lowered his head, his somewhat mischievous voice echoed in Su Weiyi’s ear, "I don’t like crowds, but if you’re willing to give me a kiss, you can bring as many people as you want."

The boy’s roguishness was on full display. Su Weiyi’s cheeks turned crimson, she hurriedly pushed Sheng Yanxiao’s chest and then quickly turned and ran out.

Faintly, she could still hear Sheng Yanxiao’s laughter, so mischievous, yet to her, it sounded sweet.

Back in the room, Su Weiyi took a few deep breaths, touched her face, which was burning hot. Oh no, oh no, she was really done for.

Su Weiyi was already nineteen years old, legally an adult, but now, she was being made blushing and heart-throbbing by a fifteen-year-old boy. If word got out, it would be utterly laughable!

Su Weiyi shrank back onto the bed, hugging her knees, yet she couldn’t stop the corners of her mouth from curving up, up again.

Her world completely collapsed because of one kiss from Sheng Yanxiao, yet it was also completely rebuilt because of that kiss.

Everything, truly everything, was now different.

On the day of departure, the high-speed train ticket was for ten twenty in the morning. Sheng Jiayu was supposed to drive them to the train station, but to avoid hassle, they had agreed to meet at the station.

As an elder, Sheng Jiayu still gave a few reminders; one must always be careful when going out.

As soon as she left, Sheng Yanxiao came over with Su Weiyi’s backpack. They planned to stay in the ancient town for a week, so they brought some clothes to change into. Luckily, summer clothes are light and thin. Su Weiyi, with a little thought, picked out eight of her most beautiful outfits from the wardrobe, and even so, they could all easily fit into her backpack.

Sheng Yanxiao had his own bag slung over one shoulder and hers over the other, looking every bit the part of a boyfriend with charm.

Not long after, Chen Ajia arrived. Su Weiyi waved in greeting as Chen Ajia trotted over on her short legs, munching on a sandwich in her hand.

Chen Ajia had a bag about the same size as Su Weiyi’s. After greeting Su Weiyi, Chen Ajia’s curious gaze was drawn to Sheng Yanxiao.

She asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yi, who’s the handsome guy?"

Su Weiyi glanced back at Sheng Yanxiao, her cheeks a little red, "Sheng Yanxiao."

Chen Ajia took a bite of her sandwich and looked at the shy expression on Su Weiyi’s face, an expression she’d never seen before. For the first time in her life, the food-loving Chen Ajia was choked by her snack.

Her gaze flicked over Sheng Yanxiao again, and then she let out an ambiguous "hehe" laugh.

"No wonder you didn’t go for Lu the academic star, huh. Not bad, this guy seems more impressive."

As they were chatting, Si Nian appeared with big headphones slung on. Unlike them, Si Nian looked unwell, his whole demeanor droopy.

As he reached them, he gave a big yawn, "Who booked the ticket, it’s so early, it’s killing me."

Chen Ajia remembered Si Nian as the guy who brought Su Weiyi the red bean mousse cake that day.

Wait a minute, isn’t this a second suitor?

Girls always have a penchant for drama like in Korean shows. Just a moment ago, Chen, who had been siding with Young Master Sheng, was now letting her imagination run wild. So this was a beauty contest journey?

From S City to Qingxi, the trip wasn’t long, just over twenty minutes by train. But the hassle was that after the train, they had to transfer to a countryside bus, which was a bit of a hassle.
