BXBX NOVEL Chapter 75
"......"
Should she explain?
Feng Qingyi hesitated for a while but didn\'t speak; after all, they were in a library.
Having taken the photo, Feng Qingyi put her phone away and resumed reading.
She spent over an hour in the library, then checked the time and realized she needed to go to class.
However, the person next to her showed no sign of getting up – did he not have a class in the afternoon?
"Excuse me, senior!"
Song Jingyuan put away the book on his desk, "Sure."
As Feng Qingyi reached the library exit, she noticed Song Jingyuan was right beside her.
"Senior, do you need something?"
Song Jingyuan: "I\'m going to class."
"Oh!" Awkward. Why did she have to say something? Wasn\'t that a bit presumptuous?
Song Jingyuan spoke to ease Feng Qingyi\'s embarrassment, "I\'m heading to Building 5, what about you?"
Feng Qingyi: "Me too."
Song Jingyuan looked at Feng Qingyi, "Let\'s go together."
"Okay."
Feng Qingyi and Song Jingyuan walked in silence to Building 5 before parting ways.
After arriving at the classroom, Feng Qingyi was surrounded by a group of people with a few minutes to spare before class started.
"Qingyi, are you and Song Jingyuan together?" a classmate boldly asked.
Feng Qingyi shook her head, "No!"
"We\'re in college now, there\'s no need to hide if you\'re dating. You two were flirting in the library, we all saw it."
Feng Qingyi was bewildered, "Where did you see that? Flirting? I just sat with him, that\'s all."
"Don\'t hide it, we noticed something was off last time. Today, a few of us were studying in the library and saw it with our own eyes."
"It\'s nothing to be embarrassed about, admit it boldly, are you shy?"
This was not a matter of shyness; she barely knew him.
However, it was clear that there was no reasoning with them, they were just stirring things up.
"I really don\'t know him well, we\'ve only met a few times. Don\'t make things up."
Feng Qingyi didn\'t want to explain at first, but considering these were her classmates who could spread rumors, she decided to clarify.
Feng Qingyi scanned the classroom and surprisingly didn\'t see Xi.
She nudged Shen Hanyue, "Where\'s Xi?"
Shen Hanyue replied: "There are still two minutes left, don\'t worry. I saw her having lunch with your brother at noon. I was wondering why she didn\'t join us."
"So she ditches friends for a guy, huh? I have a feeling there\'s something between them. Maybe Xi will be your sister-in-law in the future."
"If he really had pursued her, he would probably be celebrating and spreading the news by now. He must still be in the pursuit stage."
Feng Qingyi knew her brother well.
After he fell in love at first sight with Lou Xi, he kept bothering her, trying to get news from her.
If he had really pursued her successfully, it would be known all over the school by now.
Shen Hanyue pondered for a moment, "I think Xi certainly has feelings for your brother, otherwise she wouldn\'t have agreed to have dinner with him."
"You guys are all getting into relationships, and I\'m still without any prospects!"
Feng Qingyi clarified again, "I\'m not, I\'m single, and I\'m happy!"
"Don\'t explain, explanation is just a cover-up."
Lou Xi arrived at the classroom right on time, showing no obvious change in her emotions.
Soon after, the teacher arrived, and the classroom immediately quieted down.
Although Feng Qingyi and Shen Hanyue were a bit curious about Lou Xi\'s affairs, they gave up considering her usual demeanor.
After all, it would be pointless to ask, as she probably wouldn\'t tell them anything.
Unable to learn anything from Lou Xi, Feng Qingyi decided to ask Feng Qingci, to check on his emotional state.
After class, Feng Qingyi sent Feng Qingci a message.
[Qingyi: How are things going between you and Xi? Did you guys have dinner together, and go to the library together?]
[Feng Qingci: Yes, she said she would spend some time with me to see if it feels right, and if it does, she would agree to be my girlfriend!!!]
Seeing the three exclamation marks, Feng Qingyi could sense her brother\'s excitement and joy.
[Qingyi: Keep going! I\'m rooting for you!]
[Feng Qingci: Just don\'t hold me back.]
[Qingyi: Am I that unreliable? Do you have any money left? Do you need to apply for a love fund from our family?]
[Feng Qingci: No need.]
[Qingyi: So, do you have money?]
[Feng Qingci: No.]
[Qingyi: Then what will you use to win her heart? Dinners and gifts cost money.]
[Feng Qingci: You\'re too pragmatic, Xi is not like you, I don\'t need to spend money.]
Is she being too pragmatic? He\'s not trying to get something for nothing, is he!
[Qingyi: Who paid for lunch when you ate with her?]
[Feng Qingci: Xi paid. She said she has money.]
She originally thought the worst-case scenario would be splitting the bill, but it turned out that the girl paid for their meal.
Can he really win her over like this? Feng Qingyi had some doubts!
[Qingyi: Are you comfortable with spending her money? If you\'re really broke, I can support you a bit.]
[Feng Qingci: You don\'t understand, that is, no one is willing to spend money on you.]
[Qingyi: ......]
[Qingyi: Look at you, so full of yourself! Be careful!]
Feng Qingyi sighed, wondering if Xi would dump him once the trial period was over.
Feng Qingyi glanced at Lou Xi. When Lou Xi met her sympathetic gaze, she was a bit confused.
"What\'s wrong?"
Feng Qingyi shook her head, "Nothing, just looking at you."
Lou Xi: "......"
What\'s so interesting about her?
...
In early November, the ginkgo trees in Capital City became the most beautiful scenery of the season.
Even with constant sweeping, the fallen leaves in the campus seemed to never be completely cleared away.
Without the sun, the entire sky was foggy.
The lights in the morning classroom were already on, the gloomy weather heralding the arrival of a storm.
The howling wind outside the window nearly drowned out the teacher\'s lecture.
Feng Qingyi has always disliked this kind of gloomy weather, which also brought her mood down.
After a hard struggle to the end of the class, a heavy rain blocked everyone\'s way to the cafeteria.
"Did any of you bring an umbrella?" Feng Qingyi asked.
Shen Hanyue shook his head, "It seems that no one brought one. We can wait until the rain eases a bit, or find someone to bring us an umbrella."
A large crowd of students squeezed at the entrance of the first-floor staircase.
At this moment, Feng Qingci, holding a super-sized umbrella, walked over.
"Xi, let\'s go eat!"
Feng Qingyi saw Feng Qingci walking straight to Lou Xi, took her hand, and prepared to leave.
