“You…” Catching sight of the man approaching the gate, Jin Yuan Hao swallowed his harsh rebuke, his tone instantly softening. “This dog is very mischievous. Just now at the high school, it rudely stuck its head under a girl’s skirt, causing the girls to scream.”
Damn it, he clearly wanted to scold someone, but just seeing the other’s elegant and noble face, his momentum inexplicably weakened.
“Is that so, then I’m sor-” Seeing the man standing outside the door, his gaze subtly flashed with an unusual look. When he glanced at Shi Xuan nearby, his warm voice suddenly stopped in surprise.
His eyes narrowed slightly, with tree leaf shadows casting on his noble face, hiding the excitement that flashed momentarily. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a dimple on his left cheek.
“Hi, long time no see.” His beautiful deep eyes locked onto that familiar face, greeting casually.
Shi Xuan was stunned, her bright eyes narrowing in the sunlight.
“Long… time no see.” Her low voice carried complex emotions.
Their eyes met, and the sealed memories were like a box of precious jewels being opened. That brilliant period of past years instantly appeared before them, her thoughts drifting back to eight years ago, that summer filled with youthful spirit.
The scene from back then was like yesterday, vivid in her memory.
Eight years ago, late summer and early autumn, with the scorching sun overhead.
Under the harsh sunlight in the T University campus, two males and one female – new college students – huddled in the tree shade eating popsicles to cool down.
Seeing her blowing on her fist, Jiang Zhiqi quickly accompanied her with a smile, saying with a flattering expression, “Haha, of course not! You’re talented, elegant, graceful, and a master of both arts and martial skills. In high school, countless female classmates were crazy about you, receiving love letters every day. How could I possibly have an opinion?”
Although he was male, he knew her fist was tougher than his and didn’t want to get beaten.
“Talented, elegant, graceful?” Shi Xuan raised her eyebrow, looking at him kindly. “Are you complimenting me?” Even with her androgynous appearance and style, she hadn’t forgotten her gender.
