Now when Chen Ajia says this, Su Weiyi doesn’t find it strange at all.

She couldn’t help but curl the corners of her mouth, took a sip of water, and for the first time wanted to talk to someone about her past with Sheng Yanxiao.

Chen Ajia was eating the crispy rice and listening, but gradually, she stopped eating altogether.

She was pure, but that didn’t mean she hadn’t had some vague feelings before. And now, listening to Su Weiyi’s words, Chen Ajia felt she simply didn’t need to eat anything else, she’d already been fed a mouthful of dog food.

Finally, Chen Ajia grabbed Su Weiyi’s shoulders: "Xiao Yi, if you and he don’t end up together, I just won’t believe in love anymore."

Su Weiyi smiled: "It’s not that dramatic."

"It’s not exaggeration at all, okay? It’s so warm, incredibly warm. Turns out the true warm-hearted guys always have a cool exterior."

Su Weiyi was amused by her words. Indeed, Sheng Yanxiao, on the outside, seemed like a cold and proud youth. He always appeared lazy, as if he didn’t care about anything, but his emotions were truly rich. Sometimes he could be childish, yet he gave off a very reassuring vibe at other times.

In the past, when he seemed to have random outbursts of anger, during the time at Qingxi, Su Weiyi had tried asking him a few times.

At that time, Sheng Yanxiao’s answers really left her crying and laughing at the same time.

"Why do you get angry when I wear a skirt?"

"Nonsense, you’re showing your thighs to others, and I’m not supposed to get mad?"

"Why did you fight with people before?"

"They were hitting on you, messing with my people, who should I beat up if not them?"

"During the school-organized outing, why did you push that boy from our class into the water?"

"Who asked you to smile at his camera like a flower blossoming?"

Su Weiyi recalled her conversations with Sheng Yanxiao and couldn’t help but laugh again.

She once tried to avoid him as much as possible to keep him from discovering her secret.

Yet he tried his best to make his presence felt in her world.

Suddenly, Su Weiyi felt Chen Ajia was right; they should be together, really should be together. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

So she would wait for him, wait for the day he could truly come to her.

In Lake Bay Villa, after Su Weiyi and her friends left, Sheng Yanxiao returned to his room, grabbed the test papers from Si Nian, and began working on them. Honestly, these things were very easy for him.

But being the top scorer is a matter of a few marks apart. Sheng Yanxiao was confident in himself, but since he promised her, he would make sure to achieve it without any mistakes.

After working on the problems for over two hours, Sheng Yanxiao rubbed his slightly sore eyes, glanced at the time, and grabbed his phone to call Su Weiyi, but the other phone on the table rang instead.

Picking it up, he glanced at it, his eyes instantly filled with smiles, and his brows showed a little pride that couldn’t be hidden.

[You’re right, so I want to be with him.]

Looking at the text message, Sheng Yanxiao’s lips curled up again and again, as he set his eyes back on the test paper.

While working on the problems just now, he found them simple and boring, but now they seemed quite pleasant to look at.

Especially, Sheng Yanxiao remembered the way Su Weiyi looked while doing problems before, her brows furrowed, pen in hand occasionally poking at her ear lobe.

She would sometimes nibble on her lip, looking so adorably cute.

Moving his fingers a bit, Sheng Yanxiao typed a reply: [Is that so? Congratulations]
