She raised her head, her eyes sparkling brightly. “You… know?” she asked in disbelief. He nodded, calmly saying: “I know this is not a coincidence, but deliberately arranged to embarrass me. I think you also know who that person is – Xing Tuo. I certainly know what kind of person Xing Tuo is. Ever since that incident at the restaurant, I knew something would happen. But I don’t regret confronting him at all, because his actions were truly excessive. So even if it wasn’t you that day, I would have still spoken up. You don’t need to blame yourself.”
Qian Qi stood there, gazing blankly at his face, unable to speak for a long time, a thought slowly forming in her mind.
“Excuse me, where is Xing Tuo?” Xia Qianqi asked a male student about to leave the third-year class.
The male student looked at her strangely and said, “Seems like he’s on the rooftop.”
She ran towards the rooftop without looking back.
On the teaching building’s rooftop, two figures were leaning – Xing Tuo and Lei Xi. Xing Tuo was holding a crystal wine glass, with a bottle of red wine beside him.
“How is it? Tastes good, right?” Lei Xi asked. “This was air-shipped from France. Knowing you like it, I specially brought it for you to try.”
Xing Tuo took a sip from his glass and said, “The texture is good, just a bit mild. Which vintage is it?”
“1987.”
Xing Tuo put down his glass, stretching lazily and looking bored: “What’s Hao been up to lately? He’s always nowhere to be seen.”
Lei Xi smiled slightly: “As student council president, he’s naturally busier than us.”
Xing Tuo was about to say something when a timid voice interrupted: “Hello… hello!”
Xing Tuo turned back and saw two girls standing behind him.
He glanced at them casually and asked, “Are you talking to me?”
A tall girl shyly nodded: “I, I’m Li Na from second-year class three. I’ve liked you for a long time. Please go out with me!” She handed over a pink-blue envelope.
Lei Xi looked at her with a playful expression: “This junior, your envelope is quite cute.”
Where did you buy it?”
“Uh…?” Li Na seemed unprepared for his question, stunned and blushing even more, embarrassedly saying: “I made it myself.”
