Chapter 235: 178. Hug for a little while_2

"His topic, his ideas, even the clothes you just said looked good, were all his doing."

Guan Yongyi pursed her lips and smiled, then added, "If you think they look good, you can buy a set from his Taobao shop to give to your girlfriend."

What the fuck?

His doing?

He gave them?

How is he so awesome?

Although Guan Yongyi had only spoken one sentence, it contained too much information.

Luo Yongfei’s mind was a mess. He took a deep breath, just about to speak, when he was interrupted by Mr. Lu’s timely voice.

"Right, this clothes set is called ’All Dreams.’ Isn’t there a WeChat group? I’ll send the link there later. We’re all part of the same project group. I’ll give you a discount."

Luo Yongfei felt something stuck in his chest, his gaze towards Guan Yongyi still filled with affection.

"...you know, I don’t have a girlfriend yet."

"I didn’t know."

Guan Yongyi’s expression turned cold, her brows slightly furrowed as she sat straight up.

She didn’t usually have much patience for strangers, and today she had actually been quite nice.

"I have other things to do, so I’ll leave first. We’ll discuss the progress online."

The short-haired girl stood up. Lu Jincheng made way for her, and they left classroom 302 one after the other.

Luo Yongfei stood in front of the corridor window, staring at the figures of Guan Yongyi and Lu Jincheng walking side by side, his eyes narrowing into a thin line.

...

"He likes you?"

The first thing Lu Jincheng said as they left the Law School building was a direct expression of his thoughts.

...

Before Guan Yongyi could react, she just turned her head and glanced at him, which Lu Jincheng caught in her micro-expression.

"He definitely likes you."

"How do you know?"

"The way he looks at you is off, and the stuff he says has a weird vibe."

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Thinking of her impression of Luo Yongfei, Guan Yongyi smiled knowingly, the corners of her lips gently curling up.

"Just admit it."

"Yes, yes, yes, he’s been pursuing me since the start of school. He’s given me flowers and snacks, sent all sorts of messy gifts, even bribed my roommate, keeping him posted on my whereabouts every day."

Guan Yongyi sighed deeply, her eyelashes drooping: "It’s so annoying."

"I thought he had stopped bothering me after I moved out, but who knew Professor Li would bring him back again? He’s like a bad penny."

"He bribed your roommate too?"

Lu Jincheng couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"No wonder you don’t get along with your roommate; there’s a reason behind it. I was wrong to blame you before."

"What did you blame me for?"

"At first, I thought you had princess syndrome, were difficult to get along with, and were too sensitive."

"Oh."

Guan Yongyi punched him, turning her head away huffily.

"Aw, I was just kidding! Aside from one thing, you are beautiful, kind-hearted, and gentle. You have no faults."

Lu Jincheng smiled as he moved closer to her, reaching out his arm and wrapping it around the waist of the short-haired girl.

"What’s not good?"

"You say one thing but mean another, that’s not good."

"Let go of me, get your hand off me, thank you."

This kind of gesture might have been marginally acceptable at home while fooling around.

But in public, right in the bustling Finance University campus, Lu Jincheng daring to make a move definitely warranted her objections.

"Listen to me, he’s still upstairs watching us, believe it or not?"

Mr. Lu didn’t move, still holding the short-haired girl close, feeling the tightness and elasticity of her waist under the skirt of her uniform.

Today, Guan Yongyi looked exceptionally armed to the teeth.

Not only was she devastating to her pursuer Luo Yongfei, but even the experienced and worldly Mr. Lu was not immune.

She had optimized her makeup, even putting effort into rarely touched spots like her lower eyeshadow.

Guan Yongyi naturally had slightly upturned outer corners of her eyes, lightly brushed with a flat brush into an inverted triangle, making her sparkling eyes seem magnified several times, more shimmering like rippling water.

Staring into her eyes, he felt as if he could see his own reflection in the sunlight.

The two were extremely close, and when the wind blew, it carried the fragrance of the girl’s hair, causing ripples in his heart.

"Are you crazy? Why are you watching us walk?"

Guan Yongyi bit her lip in disbelief.

"You don’t understand men. After the conversation we just had, he’s definitely trying to figure out what our relationship is, really."

Lu Jincheng lowered his head and whispered in the girl’s ear.

"He might even play dirty against me, PK, underhand tactics."

"But it’s better if he misunderstands me than you. Don’t move, just let him be mistaken, it’s okay."

"So, if you want to avoid being harassed by him in the future, just behave and let me hold you for a while."

Luo Yongfei, sorry about that!

Whether you’re watching from upstairs or not, you’re stuck with this role today.

"...and when we turn at Wentai Building, you won’t be allowed to hold me anymore."

Guan Yongyi pursed her lips, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s hum, and she involuntarily slowed her pace.

"Okay, okay, I’m doing this to cover for you, not because I want to hold you."

Hmm...

It seemed he had a point.

If creating a misunderstanding about their relationship could make Luo Yongfei back off, it wasn’t a bad strategy.

It’s just a hug anyway.

It’s not like they hadn’t hugged before, so she decided not to fuss over it.

In Jiang City’s autumn, on a campus afternoon, a man and woman clinging tightly together seemed to epitomize romance.

The sunlight was no longer as intense as in summer, but had become gentle and warm, filtered through the sparse clouds and speckling the bluestone path.

Through the alternating light and shadow, the two walked forward, one deep and one light.

The maple leaves were gradually tinting with deep red, and the plane trees were turning golden yellow. With the gentle breeze swaying them, the air was filled with the faint scent of osmanthus and the vibrant essence of youth, making one involuntarily take a deep breath, as if inhaling all of autumn’s beauty.

"Have a drink of autumn brew,

The words still drifting in the wind~"

Finance University’s students were gathered in small groups under the shade of trees, some holding books, some softly chatting, all enjoying a leisurely moment.

The occasional bird song, the laughter of classmates from the distant playground, and music from the campus radio station filled her ears.

This was Jiang City Finance University’s most famous singer — The Landlord’s Cat’s new song "Autumn Brew."

Guan Yongyi was obviously in a good mood, still humming the song as she walked.

From Wentai Building to Dining Hall, then from Dining Hall to Wenlan Building, and all the way to the main gate.

She seemed to have forgotten what she’d said earlier, just being embraced by Lu Jincheng as they walked out of the campus.

Like any other young couple, they were stuck together, akin to conjoined dolls.

"Aren’t you going to let go?"

Not until they reached the parking lot did the short-haired girl unlock her Mercedes C-Class and recall that she’d been held by Lu Jincheng the entire way, causing her cheeks to flush.

"What, going to sever ties now that the deed’s done? Cross the river and destroy the bridge? Ungrateful? Turning your face away without emotion?"

Lu Jincheng raised his eyebrows, teasing her with a smile.

"I was just shielding you from arrows, and now you don’t know me anymore, ah, women."

"He can’t see us anymore! You really don’t get it, do you?"

Guan Yongyi gave him a white look, her eyes carrying a touch of playful scolding and allure.

"But seriously, you’re quite thin. Try to eat less takeout, it’s not healthy."

Having held her all the way, Mr. Lu naturally noticed many details.

Compared to the plump body type of the councilor, Guan Yongyi, a typical slim southern beauty, was practically at the other extreme.

Her abdomen was free of any excess fat, and when his fingers rested on her waist, he could even feel her ribs slightly.

"I’ve been learning to cook recently."

The short-haired girl said quietly.

"Oh? So obedient?"

"I can’t always have my guests eat takeout at my place, can I?"

"Si si doesn’t like takeout."

Yet, Mr. Lu quickly grasped the underlying meaning of her statement.

Guests...

It wasn’t just her, Zhou Sinin, after all.
