Chapter 117: Chapter 117 Since It’s a Point of No Return, Why Talk of Turning Back (1)

Coincidentally, three male students at the nearby table were also eating and noticed that Shi Nuan was pretty. They seemed eager to strike up a conversation. _{f\ree webn ovel(.)com}

They looked like lower-year students, still quite shy, pushing each other without anyone daring to speak up.

One of the boys seemed to have noticed something and whispered to his companions, "I think it’s best to forget about it. She has a ring on her left hand; clearly, she’s taken!"

Although he spoke softly, the distance wasn’t far, so Shi Nuan and Lv Nan Nan heard it clearly.

Shi Nuan continued eating, completely ignoring them, but Lv Nan Nan couldn’t stand people talking behind others’ backs.

She glanced at the boys, adjusted her glasses, and said, "Gentlemen, you should give up. She’s not interested in you!"

The boys were stunned. Gentlemen? Did that mean they were...

"Also, can you stop fidgeting while eating? It disturbs the people around you. I think you should move to another table," Lv Nan Nan added.

The boys exchanged glances but didn’t dare to say anything.

After all, she was their senior, and they had to show respect. They said, "Sorry, Senior," picked up their plates, and moved to a slightly distant table to continue eating.

Shi Nuan felt a bit awkward on the side. She glanced at Lv Nan Nan and said, "Actually... it’s okay!"

Lv Nan Nan replied, "I just look down on them a bit. If they like someone, they should admit it. Being so timid... it’s pathetic!"

Shi Nuan was taken aback, not expecting Lv Nan Nan to say that.

In fact, Lv Nan Nan, He Meisui, and the others had also noticed the ring on Shi Nuan’s left hand.

But no one thought much of it.

After all, it was well known that Shi Nuan had been engaged to Song Yichuan three years ago. Since she wasn’t in the habit of wearing jewelry usually, she hadn’t worn a ring during these years at school.

Ou Xiaoning once asked Shi Nuan to show her the ring, to which Shi Nuan simply replied, "The ring is with Xiao Chuan," and said no more.

Now that Song Yichuan had passed away, Shi Nuan was heartbroken. Wearing the ring in memory of Song Yichuan was understandable.

Shi Nuan didn’t deliberately hide it either. Some things can’t be hidden just by trying to.

After eating, the two returned to the dormitory. They didn’t talk much on the way, and as they neared the dormitory building, Shi Nuan’s phone rang.

Glancing at it, she said to Lv Nan Nan, "I’ll take this call. You go up first!"

Lv Nan Nan didn’t ask further and turned to leave.

Shi Nuan went to a corner nearby to answer the call and said, "Sister Xia?"

The woman on the other end spoke, "Nuannuan, I’m discussing business this afternoon and happened to pass by T University. I have some time, shall we meet?"

Shi Nuan’s eyes flickered slightly, glancing over at a kapok tree on the nearby lawn.

A couple was standing there, talking, their figures intermittently obscured by the flowers’ shadows.

An image from her memory flashed through Shi Nuan’s mind, causing her heart to tremble slightly.

Then, she heard herself softly responding with a single word, "Okay!"

...

About a ten-minute drive from T University, at a café, Shi Nuan entered to find Ji Xia already waiting.

Seeing Shi Nuan, the woman had a fleeting expression in her eyes, but she managed to keep her emotions in check and remained seated.

Shi Nuan went to the seat opposite Ji Xia, smiled gently at her, and said, "Sister Xia!"

Ji Xia wanted to say something but didn’t know where to start. Finally, she only said, "I’m afraid you’re not used to coffee, so I ordered you some milk tea. Is that okay?"
