An Xi watched the car leave, amused.
Yan Ji was completely subdued by Yan Qing! Who would have thought that the big boss would be completely powerless in front of his younger brother…
— C O M P L E T E L Y P O W E R L E S S !
An Xi happily bounced back into the house, gradually feeling how cold it had been outside… She blew on her hands, then cheerfully went to wash up, finally rolling “roundly” into her warm bed.
Lights off, the room pitch black, but An Xi stared at the ceiling, her eyes sparkling.
Her mind was full of Yan Qing’s slight smile just before leaving…
This must be the true feeling of love, different from Chen Yi’s sweet talk… Such direct action is often more heartwarming, isn’t it?
As a student… she really hoped school would start soon…
Okay… whenever she meets Yan Qing, she indeed becomes completely unable to stay calm!
An Xi closed her eyes and sincerely made a wish—
“I hope my family and Yan Qing’s family will be well in the new year!”
“I hope my family and Yan Qing’s family will be well in the new year!”
“I hope my family and Yan Qing’s family will be well in the new year!”
— Well… important things must be said three times!!!
★ Chapter Fifteen
Early February, An Xi returned to school with a pained expression. Compared to other grades, freshman courses were naturally the most packed, which meant they had to hurry back to school after the New Year.
The first class was pottery, which An Xi originally thought would be interesting, but upon entering the classroom and seeing those two buckets of something resembling “poop”, she felt completely discouraged.
The pottery teacher looked like a young man, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, appearing quite refined. He wore a thick blue and white checkered jacket and smiled exceptionally gently.
“Students, please each take a wooden board, scoop some clay, knead it together, and then slowly pat it into a rectangular shape,” the glasses-wearing teacher pushed up his glasses, still smiling gently, but the students below were groaning.
An Xi queued up to scoop clay from the bucket. In front of her was her classmate Shen Yi, who also looked like she was ready to give up.
By the way… Dai Xue was double-majoring in finance and law, Ye Ling was in psychology, and Mu Rou was also in finance.
Seeing Shen Yi say nothing, An Xi opened her mouth, then closed it again…
After completing the course, she definitely wanted to wash her hands thoroughly… Sigh… She hoped these two weeks of classes would end quickly…
After finishing the pottery class, it was already noon. An Xi worked hard to scrub her hands under the faucet, but the muddy water washing off was still hard for her to look at… Fortunately, Yan Qing and the others wouldn’t start their class for half a month, which was perfect for her to finish this course! Otherwise, her hands would be dirty every day… How unpleasant…
In the blink of an eye, over a week had passed. The teacher with the plaid glasses wore a different colored plaid jacket every day, which inspired many students to occasionally wear plaid jackets, hoping for a lucky boost…
An Xi was no longer as resistant to this course as she was at the beginning. On the contrary, getting to use the machines in the “Pottery Bar” that normally required payment had piqued her interest…
Well, she was going to make a couple’s mug! She would fire one and give it to Yan Qing!
In the afternoon, An Xi and Shen Yi went to the lecture hall for their moral ethics class as usual.
The moral ethics classroom was large, typically hosting two classes together, but today, it seemed fewer students had come… The people in the classroom looked scattered.
With five minutes left before class, An Xi received a text from Yan Qing – “Where are you?”
Her mood instantly lifted!
An Xi giggled and quickly replied – “In Lecture Hall 3 for moral ethics!”
Then, there was no further response from Yan Qing, and then… Yan Qing, holding the same moral ethics textbook, sat seriously next to An Xi.
“Yan Qing! Aren’t you guys not back in school yet?” An Xi asked in surprise, glancing at his book… clearly one he used in his freshman year.
“Obviously, you’ve forgotten I’m the publicity department director,” Yan Qing pushed up his glasses and shrugged. “Tomorrow night, there’s another poster mission!”
“Wow! An Xi… is this… your boyfriend?”
Shen Yi had been staring for a while, noting their affectionate gaze and doting tone… This must definitely be her boyfriend!!!
“Um… yes.”
Seeing that Yan Qing clearly didn’t intend to speak, An Xi could only blush and stammer in response.
“Hello, I’m Yan Qing.”
Seemingly quite satisfied with An Xi’s “yes”, Yan Qing nodded politely to Shen Yi.
“Oh my goodness! What a handsome guy!”
Shen Yi covered her mouth, teasing An Xi with a nudge, then introduced herself: “I’m Shen Yi, An Xi’s classmate.”
“Well, I hope An Xi hasn’t been troubling you daily.”
Yan Qing spoke naturally, while An Xi’s head sank lower.
“Not at all! Not at all!” Shen Yi waved her hand, then suddenly remembered something: “Oh right, An Xi, I’m skipping next class, so could you help with attendance? Happy holiday!”
“Oh… holiday?”
Hearing Shen Yi’s words, An Xi pulled out her phone in confusion…
One look, and she was shocked! She had indeed been so absorbed in playing with clay that she’d forgotten today was February 14th, Valentine’s Day!
She secretly glanced at Yan Qing beside her and was caught red-handed…
Well… some poster mission… Yan Qing must have come to campus to accompany her on Valentine’s Day!
Thinking about this, she felt touched… In her previous life, Chen Yi would always leave halfway through Valentine’s Day, and now she realized he probably went to be with Mu Rou…
In this life, from rebirth to being with Yan Qing, even spending the New Year together, and now Valentine’s Day too… She seemed to be extraordinarily blessed…
“What are you thinking about so intently?”
Yan Qing lightly tapped her head.
“Thinking… about Valentine’s Day, hehe.”
When Yan Qing asked, she unexpectedly blurted it out.
“Hehe… An Xi, you’re an animation major, right?”
Yan Qing was surprised, then asked with a slight smile.
“Yes.”
An Xi didn’t understand why he suddenly asked about this…
“I’ll accompany you to every holiday in the future, including anime conventions.”
His eyes held a soft glow, and An Xi was truly touched… In her previous life, whenever she mentioned anime conventions, Chen Yi would dismissively call her childish and never tried to understand her genuine passion…
Perhaps because of being reborn, she now frequently compared Chen Yi and Yan Qing, with the result naturally being… she liked Yan Qing more and despised Chen Yi more…
“Thank you… Yan Qing,” An Xi rubbed towards him like a little cat.
She originally wanted to rest her head on his shoulder… but height was an unavoidable obstacle! After several attempts, An Xi could only quietly lean on his arm.
“Hehe.” A light laugh seemed to come from nearby, making her wonder if he was laughing at her height… An Xi thought and asked, “Yan Qing, will you accompany me to cosplay?”
“…” Yan Qing seemed to hesitate, his expression stiffening at something, but hearing her hopeful inquiry, he still nodded.
“Yan Qing, you’re the best!” An Xi smiled adorably, her eyes curved charmingly.
Yan Qing relaxed seeing her like this, unaware that An Xi had already planned their next convention cosplay characters in her mind. The observant Yan Qing quietly took out wet wipes from his bag, pulled An Xi’s hand, and carefully wiped it…
An Xi blushed and lowered her head again…
No need to ask… he had definitely caught her with unwashed clay on her hands…
Ugh… her dirty self had been discovered!
