âWhere is Mount Qi?â
Qin Shuâs answer seemed to be within Jun Liâs expectations. Jun Liâs expression did not change. He only paused for a few seconds.
âItâs quite far.â
Jun Liâs voice was soft and had a trace of sadness.
Qin Shu glanced at Jun Li curiously.
Jun Li asked casually, âAre you going to Imperial College?â
âMmm,â Qin Shu answered. From his tone, it seemed like he already knew her test results.
Jun Li didnât ask any more questions. Instead, he stared at the people on the track like he was looking at the scenery. But he also looked as if he was deep in thought.
Qin Shu also looked towards the track field and saw that Ye Xue had already made it to Jiang Yu.
Fu Tingyan and Jiang Yu couldnât play basketball because they were both injured, so they were wandering around the field.
Even so, a group of fangirls was looking at them from afar.
Jiang Yu saw Ye Xue when she was walking over. He looked at her curiously as she walked in front of him. But she didnât look up at him and didnât say anything.
Ye Xue tugged at the hem of her clothes. She didnât know how to ask the question. She was struggling so much that her face turned red.
Because Jiang Yu could not smile, he asked with a cold expression, âDo you have something to say?â
When Ye Xue heard Jiang Yuâs impatient tone, she thought that he was in a bad mood. She raised her head and hurriedly asked, âAre your injuries serious? Yesterday, I saw that the corner of your mouth was bleeding. During your examination, did the doctor say anything?â
After Ye Xue asked the question, she lowered her head again and continued tugging at the hem of her clothes.
When Jiang Yu heard the question, he endured the pain from his wounds, waved his hand, and said, âIâm fine. How serious can my injuries be?â
Fu Tingyan, who was standing at the side, thought back to the morning. Jiang Yu had said that his injuries were quite painful. But now he was putting on a brave front. Fu Tingyan couldnât help but laugh out loud.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When Jiang Yu heard Fu Tingyuâs laughter, he glared at Fu Tingyan. âWhat are you laughing at? Donât expose your best friend like that!â Jiang Yu thought.
âIâm sorry, I couldnât hold it in.â Fu Tingyan made a gesture to admit his mistake and turned around to continue laughing.
Ye Xue looked at Jiang Yu and thought that his expression and words were somewhat inconsistent.
Jiang Yu was afraid that Ye Xue would feel guilty, so he said, âDonât think too much. Even if it were to be someone else, Xiao Qi and I will help regardless.â
âI, I didnât think too much. I just wanted to thank you guys. I really donât have anything else.â
Ye Xue thought that Jiang Yu had misunderstood her, that she might have ulterior motives. so she hurriedly explained.
Jiang Yu said, âThatâs good. Thereâs no need to thank me.â
Qin Shu, who was sitting on the steps, looked at Ye Xue, who was on the field. When Qin Shu saw how Ye Xue kept her head down, she couldnât help but sigh. If Ye Xue continued to act like that, other girls may steal Jiang Yu away. Ye Xue was not making any moves. She was slow like a turtle.
Jun Li suddenly asked, âThat girl, does she like that boy?â
Qin Shu nodded. âMmm.â
âIs she confessing?â
âNo.â Qin Shu shook her head and didnât elaborate.
Jun Li looked curiously at the two people on the field and didnât ask any more questions.
After a long silence.
Jun Li suddenly turned his head to look at Qin Xue. She wore her hair down. So from Jun Liâs angle, he only saw a little bit of her side profile besides her hair. âDo you have candies?â
His voice was still very soft like a stream in a mountain, like the sound of water flowing slowly.
Qin Shu turned her head to look at Jun Li. Jun Liâs purple eyes were filled with anticipation.
Qin Shu recalled the hard candy in her jacket pocket. Fu Tingyu gave it to her this morning before she left.
During this period of time, she had to beg him for candy.
Moreover, she was allowed one candy a day. She was not allowed to buy candy on her own. If Fu Tingyu found out, she would be punished.
Sometimes, he would give her candy at night.
But heâd always be the one who ate the candy in the end.
One candy a day. Qin Shu was a little hesitant.
This was different from the last time. She didnât have a whole bag of candy. So every single piece counted.
