“Lin An, what is the situation on your end?”
Xia Qi stood up from the Bench and got straight to the point.
“Jiang Xiao has already confessed everything. What about you?”
Lin An looked at Jiang Xiao beside him, then at the somewhat flustered Song Qiuyu on the Bench. His glasses reflected the light as he recalled the past for a moment.
He never thought that the current well-behaved, sensible, and mature Qiu Yu would have a past of pretending to be a girl and catfishing her Roommate.
One could only say that even the most outstanding person has an unspeakable past.
But there is no greater virtue than correcting one’s mistakes.
Considering their current situation, Qiu Yu paying herself back to Lao Jiang to atone for her sins was the most cost-effective outcome.
“Almost the same!”
Xia Qi stepped forward.
Lin An and Xia Qi went aside to compare notes, and Jiang Xiao walked up to Song Qiuyu.
Then, Song Qiuyu coughed twice in a sickly manner and looked up at him. Since she chose to believe, she had to follow through to the end.
“Don’t be too nervous. They will definitely help us keep the secret.”
Jiang Xiao squatted down, looked up at Song Qiuyu, smiled, and said, “As for you, Xi’er, you were very brave to speak about that past experience.”
As he spoke, he saw her soft black hair being blown by the breeze like seaweed on the water’s surface, fluttering freely.
Her downcast eyes slowly brightened, but soon she seemed to be throwing a tantrum, knitting her pretty brows and pouting her lips, intentionally making a slightly fierce face.
If the situation didn’t forbid it, he suspected she would give him a few punches on the spot.
Although Xi’er was small and had a sweet, well-behaved appearance, no matter how fierce she tried to be when wanting to hit someone, it looked more like she was acting spoiled.
In Xi’er’s own words from before, that was called the Gangster’s Excitement Punch.
“Do you feel more relaxed after saying it?”
Jiang Xiao smoothed her feathers just in time.
Song Qiuyu pursed her lips tightly, meeting Jiang Xiao’s eyes which were full of laughter.
The temper she originally wanted to vent could no longer be expressed.
She had trusted him so much, but it turned out he was calculating against her.
Jiang Xiao’s intention wasn’t just to solve today’s matter; it was to get her to personally talk about the past.
How self-righteous of you, Haki Xiao.
Gradually, a gentle smile appeared on Song Qiuyu’s face.
She suddenly felt like being even better to him, even if only for a few short days, even if only for these days while she was sick.
To love someone to her heart’s content and enjoy the feeling of being loved.
Just like that, without worrying about anything, living in a beautiful dream.
“Does Xi’er still remember what I said?”
Jiang Xiao reached out a large Hand to her.
“It’s okay to treat me as your emotional trash can. If you’re angry, just vent it out. I rarely see you truly angry; I’m a bit curious!”
Song Qiuyu’s beautiful apricot eyes blinked twice. She felt like Jiang Xiao was getting a bit mischievous.
See, she told him being a “sand sculpture” was contagious. That guy Ha Ji Xie is practically a pathogen!
Glancing down at the large Hand Jiang Xiao offered, Song Qiuyu thought about it and simply stood up, then intentionally exaggerated her movements to stretch her arms and fingers.
Jiang Xiao: …
What is Xi’er doing?
“Jiang Xiao, are you ready?”
Song Qiuyu exhaled onto her small open palm.
“Accept my Final Wave!”
As she said this, Jiang Xiao was stunned. Lin An and Xia Qi, who were comparing notes nearby, were attracted by this classic line.
When they turned their heads, they saw that Song Qiuyu hadn’t hit Jiang Xiao’s hand, but instead flicked Jiang Xiao’s head.
With this flick, Jiang Xiao’s brow furrowed. He subconsciously wanted to hold back a cry of pain, but then he thought better of it and let it out honestly.
“You might not believe it, but this is actually a Male Dorm Special. Simply put, we just have a small episode every now and then.”
Lin An adjusted his glasses and sighed, unable to bear watching.
“Although usually, it’s only Lao Xie who suddenly has an episode.”
“That’s great. Maybe I should go play in your Male Dormitory sometime.”
Xia Qi’s furrowed brow suddenly smoothed over, expressing her understanding.
“I can’t keep up with the topics my roommates in the Female Dormitory talk about. They aren’t interested in Second Dimension stuff at all. My Chuunibyou Power has nowhere to be vented.”
“You should also act more like a girl. Look at Qiu Yu; she looks more like a girl than you do.”
Lin An was silent for a while, then sighed again.
Xia Qi put her hands on her hips and looked at Song Qiuyu. Ever since she found out the other party also liked boys, she suddenly felt a sense of closeness and wanted to be near her.
Is this the rumored “male best friend”?
That didn’t seem right either.
It was a more familiar feeling, like being the same kind, but also not.
Seeing Jiang Xiao clutching his forehead in pain, Xia Qi couldn’t help but frown. “Is Song Qiuyu this ruthless toward her Boyfriend?”
Lin An looked at Xia Qi in shock, greatly amazed by her ability to accept things.
From Jiang Xiao’s narrative perspective, Jiang Xiao treated Song Qiuyu as his Girlfriend, but Song Qiuyu probably hadn’t considered Jiang Xiao her Boyfriend yet, right?
“Jiang Xiao, what’s wrong?”
Song Qiuyu looked at Jiang Xiao, who was clutching his forehead and crying out in pain, and suddenly doubted herself.
Did she accidentally use too much force?
Jiang Xiao said nothing, just continuously clutched his forehead and faked the pain.
“Uh, did I use too much force just now?”
Song Qiuyu hurriedly squatted down, gently grabbing Jiang Xiao’s large Hand with her small ones to pull it away and check.
“Jiang Xiao, let me see!”
Jiang Xiao removed his Hand.
He looked up into her eyes and could see they were full of worry, which caused the corners of his mouth to quirk up slightly.
“It really is a bit red.”
Song Qiuyu knitted her brows in self-blame, her voice soft and sweet.
She hurriedly looked around, and seeing that Xia Qi and Lin An weren’t looking at them, she relievedly leaned close to his forehead and blew on it gently.
As she blew, she inadvertently caught sight of Jiang Xiao’s reddened earlobes. She couldn’t help but feel shy as well, and the breath she exhaled became increasingly hot and moist.
“Uh, wait, I still have a fever. If I blow on you like this, will I infect you?”
She seemed to have just realized this and hurriedly stood up, taking half a step back, covering her mouth with her small hand.
So her strength was actually quite large! She’d have to be gentler next time!
However, that wasn’t the case.
This Red Mark was something Jiang Xiao had quietly pressed out with his finger.
Jiang Xiao watched her downcast eyes, her worried and anxious expression, and her somewhat regretful look; the curve of his mouth deepened.
Xi’er had said before that if someone accidentally gets hurt, they just need to blow on the injured area and it would get better.
He didn’t know if she still remembered it herself.
But at this moment, she was putting it into practice.
“My body is very strong. Since I was sick and had a broken bone before, I’ve been working out. But I’ll accept Xi’er’s concern.”
Jiang Xiao’s smile was full of happiness.
He felt that if they were really talking about infection, what they did last night was much riskier.
Even though Jiang Xiao didn’t point it out, Song Qiuyu had already remembered last night’s events again and couldn’t help but feel even more ashamed.
She hid the emotions surging within her, scratching her hot nape with one small hand.
She no longer dared to look Jiang Xiao directly in the eye; if she did, she wouldn’t be able to speak again.
But thinking that Jiang Xiao’s forehead was still red and that she had flicked it herself, she took another deep breath, clenched her fists, and stepped forward with determined eyes.
She squatted down once more, brought her lips close again, and continued to help by blowing.
A fragrant breeze passed over him again and again, light and slow. Jiang Xiao lowered his eyes, quietly enjoying this moment.
At this moment, Xia Qi glanced back at their situation and then widened her eyes, letting out a soft sound of surprise.
Fortunately, her reaction was fast enough; she pulled Lin An to turn around, otherwise Song Qiuyu probably wouldn’t have helped Jiang Xiao blow anymore.
“What do you think their relationship is now?”
Xia Qi asked the person beside her.
Lin An didn’t reply, but just adjusted his glasses with a subtle expression. As for the matter of two roommates dating, surprise was surprise, but he still chose to respect and support them.
Even if they were together, they were still members of the 602 Dormitory and his good Friends.
They still had to work hard together to chase The Dream.
“Then are you planning to tell your other Roommate, that Xie Zhuran, about this?”
Xia Qi changed the subject and asked again, not dwelling on one question.
“After all, you’re all roommates and have such a good relationship. Xie Zhuran should also have the right to know. I think Song Qiuyu and the others would also agree to tell him.”
The afternoon wind carried a bit of chill, blowing Xia Qi’s lowered whisper into the ears of two people.
One was Lin An, and the other, naturally, was Jiang Xiao, who had good hearing.
Jiang Xiao glanced in the direction of Lin An and Xia Qi out of the corner of his eye, his eyes narrowing slightly. This step of development was, of course, also within his plan.
He knew very well that Lin An wouldn’t tell Xie Zhuran.
A guy like Lin An would prefer to let Xie Zhuran remain in the dark, continuing to be his Great Scholar and debating scriptures for them.
Lin An looked up at the warm winter sun high in the sky, a smile playing on his lips.
