Chapter 179: Chapter 179 Digging a Pit is Futile

As finals approached, the library was bustling with significantly more students than usual.

When Ye Li walked in, both male and female students glanced her way, only to naturally lower their heads back to their books after a brief look.

Some girls greeted Ye Li with kind smiles and waves.

Ye Li responded with a polite smile.

In the already hushed library, the rustling sound of flipping pages paused momentarily, prompting Ye Li to instinctively look back. A few meters away, she caught sight of Fu Yanci entering.

Turning back around, she saw the girls’ eyes light up in admiration.

Even though no one spoke, Ye Li could tell everyone was thinking the same thing, "This handsome guy... is he from Imperial University? Why haven’t I seen him on the rankings for most handsome students? That’s impossible!"

Xie Yunkai, the current most handsome student, was chosen through a collective vote on the forums by senior boys and girls, recognized by both male and female students for his good looks.

But Xie Yunkai’s type of handsome had more of a clear, sunny, youthful charm to it.

While Fu Yanci’s handsome was deep and reserved, a type that belonged exclusively to men.

Looking at his attire, he seemed like a senior in his fourth year, or perhaps a graduate student.

It wasn’t impossible to assume he might be a doctorate candidate.

Underneath the silver-framed glasses, his eyes were narrow and profound, his gaze steady and calm when looking at people or objects.

His demeanor exuded one quality: coldness!

This, coupled with his undisturbed handsome face, added an air of ascetic aloofness.

Staring blankly, the girls felt their hearts pounding uncontrollably.

When they looked up again, he had already walked behind the bookshelves.

Through the mottled gaps, one could see the tall figure standing in the aisle, slightly looking up, his gaze sliding across the neatly arranged books on the shelves.

Even just the mere sight of his back was enough to make hearts flutter.

If one could date such a man...

The girls quickly withdrew their gazes.

Ye Li had already found the books she needed and took a seat in a corner.

Fu Yanci nonchalantly pulled a thick hardcover book from above his head and sat down diagonally opposite Ye Li.

Looking up briefly, the title on the cover seemed like it was in Latin?

The oncoming "Fu Yanci, you can read Latin too?" was swiftly swallowed back down. Ye Li withdrew her gaze, acting the part of a proper stranger.

Yanci hooked the corner of his lips into a smile.

The next instant, as the sound of fabric rustled, a pink notebook was placed before Fu Yanci.

Fu Yanci was taken aback.

On it, a line of graceful and delicate handwriting read: Hi, senior! What department are you from? Would you mind adding me on WeChat?

Ye Li curled her lips, an impish smile on her face.

"Just then Yanci tapped his fingertip on the table, "Junior sister, lend me a pen!"

Seeing the girl behind Fu Yanci frequently glancing back, Ye Li tamped down the smile on her lips and took out a pen from her pencil case to hand to Fu Yanci.

With a hint of a smile still on her face, she said, "Senior, you should give her a good reply!"

Heh.

Fu Yanci took out his phone and sent a message.

Buzz.

Her phone vibrated once, and Ye Li looked down to see a WeChat message from Fu Yanci: [Ah Li, your trick won’t work!]

Looking up again, she saw he had already written a response in bold strokes on the notebook.

"Study hard! Otherwise, please give up your seat to someone else who needs it!"

Ye Li turned her head and saw more and more people streaming in, eagerly searching for a spot.

The girl who received the notebook had bright, expectant eyes.

After reading the content, her face turned red with embarrassment.

Ye Li glanced at Fu Yanci, smiled lightly, and focused on her book once again.

When the table was tapped again, Ye Li looked up to see Fu Yanci glance at her, then towards the window behind her.

Turning her head, Ye Li realized... the day had already turned to night so quickly?

Checking her phone for the time, Ye Li quickly packed up her bag.

As Ye Li was replacing the books on the shelf, Fu Yanci was no longer at his seat.

Thinking they should maintain some distance, Ye Li walked leisurely towards the exit.

Upon leaving the library, she saw Fu Yanci at the entrance surrounded by several girls.
