Nanxi smiled, “I’ve already finished my graduation thesis, and it doesn’t matter if my job hunting is delayed by a day or two.

I don’t mind at all!”

Liang Qiaoqiao nodded and waved goodbye to Nanxi.

Nanxi’s decision to stay at the Liang Family home was also intended to give Liang Qiaoqiao peace of mind.

Liang Qiaoqiao left Grandma in Xu Mei’s care, and her approval of Xu Mei comes from a place of helplessness.

She wondered if she could ease Liang Qiaoqiao’s mind somehow by staying there?

…

On the tenth of May, Uncle called to say he’d be home by the afternoon.

Nanxi had originally planned to stay until he arrived, but was forced to return to campus by a call from Yang Su.

Yang Su mentioned that her graduation thesis had been finalized, any revision needed was insignificant, and the professor had already agreed for her to participate in the final defense at the end of the month!

Nanxi was delighted for Yang Su, who casually mentioned that Bai Yuchuan had called to say they should all gather to celebrate tonight.

She asked when Nanxi would be coming back.

Nanxi, laughing, teased, “I had no idea you missed me this much!”

Yang Su responded playfully, “Exactly, a day apart feels like three seasons!

Without you, who will fill the void in my heart, who will keep me company through the long and lonely nights~ Dear Nanxi, come back quickly, ah~”

Nanxi: “…”

After eating lunch at noon, Nanxi put Grandma to bed for her afternoon nap, said goodbye to Aunt Xu and returned to campus.

Out of the four people in the dorm, three had already finished their thesis.

Han Baobao was the only one left, and yet she seemed completely unconcerned, cherishing her college life like a carefree princess!

Han Baobao asked, “Is Yan Chenqing coming to the party tonight?”

Lan Qiqi raised an eyebrow, “If you’re not going, he probably will!”

Han Baobao furrowed her brow and turned away in a huff, not saying a word!

In the afternoon, Han Baobao packed up her stuff to go home and had Nanxi accompany her, insisting she had too much to carry.

With no choice, Nanxi went .

Walking on the campus pathway, Nanxi carried Han Baobao’s laptop bag, listening to Han Baobao’s complaints:

“Nanxi, you see, Yang Su and Lan Qiqi clearly just don’t like me.

Even when I try to be nice to them, it doesn’t work…

I don’t get it, what’s their problem?

Did I do something to offend them?

They’re unbearable!”

Nanxi awkwardly twitched the corner of her mouth and said nothing.

At the school gate, Han Baobao waved at a black Mercedes-benz that immediately pulled up.

The man exiting the car was a man in his fifties who greeted Han Baobao politely:

“Young Miss…”

“Where is my brother?

Didn’t I tell him to pick me up himself?” Han Baobao frowned, looking unhappy.

“The young master is busy today, so I was sent to pick you up,” replied the servant.

Han Baobao pouted, still not satisfied.

Nanxi politely bowed to the middle-aged man as a gesture of friendliness.

Han Baobao took back her laptop bag from Nanxi, and said:

“The reason why I asked you to accompany me was to introduce you to my brother in advance, but he didn’t come…”

Disappointment flickered in her eyes.

Han Baobao continued, “…Must have been held up by some woman!”

Nanxi: “…”

Coughing gently, “Well…

that’s fine, there will be other opportunities to meet!

You should get in the car quickly, they can’t park here too long!”

Han Baobao nodded, waved goodbye to Nanxi, and got into the car!

Watching the car drive away, Nanxi thought, actually Han Baobao is not that bad, at least she doesn’t find her annoying!

…

Bai Yuchuan came out of the cold-drink store, threw a can of green tea at Zhang Mu, who failed to catch it, and got hit, crying out in pain:

“Xiaobai, are you trying to murder me…?”

Bai Yuchuan frowned, “Bro, you’re overestimating yourself.

Murdering you?

I wouldn’t want to dirty my hands!”

“Cough!” Zhang Mu was choked with anger, “Xiaobai, don’t go too far.

I’ve never offended you…” He turned his head and suddenly saw two figures, squinted his eyes, and patted Bai Yuchuan’s shoulder asking, “Hey, Xiaobai, look at those two girls over there.

Aren’t they Nanxi and Han Baobao?”

Bai Yuchuan followed Zhang Mu’s pointing direction, frowned, and indeed they were!

“They seem to be getting along well.

Didn’t Nanxi forget how Han Baobao tried to hook up with Huanzi back then?”

While rubbing the spot hit by Bai Yuchuan, Zhang Mu started talking.

Damn, it hurt!

Bai Yuchuan didn’t answer.

In the distance, the two girls waved goodbye.

Han Baobao even hugged Nanxi once, and Nanxi was smiling softly.

The sunlight fell behind her, casting a warm slanting glow.

…

Nanxi was startled when she saw Bai Yuchuan and Zhang Mu, because she felt like they had been observing her for a while.

What’s there to observe?

Nanxi was troubled!

At the same time, Nanxi noticed something strange.

Bai Yuchuan and Zhang Mu were often seen together, but Yan Chenqing rarely appeared.

However, when the three of them met up, their relationship was still wonderful…

and peculiarly inseparable?!

“How come you’re here?”

Asked Nanxi, with a faint smile on her face.

Polite and gentle, so well-behaved no matter how you look at her!

Bai Yuchuan said, “We saw you with Han Baobao just now, when did you two become so close?”

“Ah?” Nanxi was confused, understanding why the two had been observing quietly for so long.

Yang Su and Lan Qiqi didn’t like Han Baobao, and as a result, both Bai Yuchuan and Zhang Mu who were close to Yang Su and Lan Qiqi didn’t like Han Baobao either.

Adding the relationship between Li Weihuan and Yan Chenqing certainly made it harder for them to like Han Baobao!

Nanxi said, “She needed a hand with her luggage for going home and I’m helping her out!”

Zhang Mu said, “Nanxi, as your brother-in-law and friend, I should remind you.

Han Baobao is a bit crafty, it’s okay to get along with her casually, but keep her at arm’s length!

Otherwise, you’ll be the one who ends up suffering!”

Nanxi frowned, “Is it really that dramatic?

She’s just a spoiled young miss, and there are plenty of girls at H University even more arrogant than Han Baobao…”

Bai Yuchuan said, “It’s okay; Zhang Mu, Call Lanlan and ask her to get Susu ready and come out.

Chenqing has already made a reservation.

Let’s all go to ‘The Palace’ to play for a while!”

Zhang Mu moved to a corner with his phone to make the call, while Bai Yuchuan drained the half can of cola in one gulp.

Nanxi turned to watch the cars.

Nanxi was worried that Bai Yuchuan would ask about Li Weihuan again…

It’s really uncomfortable to hide a secret in your heart.

Counting the days, Li Weihuan would be back in a week.

Since it’s a surprise, it definitely needs to be kept a secret.

Yang Su and Lan Qiqi arrived quickly.

Bai Yuchuan didn’t drive there, so they all took a cab.

On the way, Lan Qiqi joked with Bai Yuchuan, “Xiaobai, didn’t your car get impounded for a parking fine?”

Bai Yuchuan shot her a glare, “Can you stop being a jinx?

A friend wanted to impress his girlfriend today, so he insisted on driving my car.

How could I, as a brother, refuse?”

“In that case, Xiaobai, why not lend me your car tomorrow for some time, okay?” Zhang Mu put a hand around Bai Yuchuan’s neck, teasing.

Bai Yuchuan pushed him away, with a look of disgust, “Go to hell!”
