Then, after their marriage, his baby would surely be this happy every day.
The next day, Xu Wanxing looked at the ultra-large cardboard box that had arrived and felt very worried.
Pei Yu’s gift had been delivered. In fact, how could it be called a delivery?
“Wanxing’s” address was located a few kilometers from their university, sent out from their university.
It was utterly comical.
But now, how was he going to deal with this gift? Xu Wanxing opened the box and searched around, but he couldn’t find the cool wristwatch he had been longing for.
Where on earth was it?
Not believing it, Xu Wanxing continued to search.
He turned the box completely upside down but still couldn’t find it. Pei Yu actually hadn’t put the watch inside. Why? Was it because he had worn it before and considered it bad luck?
Xu Wanxing: I’m speechless!
He opened his phone to find over twenty unread messages from Pei Yu.
Clearly, Pei Yu was very excited.
“Pei Yu: I see it’s been signed for here. Wanxing must have received the gift. Open it quickly and take a look; there are many great things inside.”
The “great things” were indeed great. Xu Wanxing could tell at a glance that several new items had been added to the box.
There was a gaming console he usually couldn’t bear to buy, with ultra-high specifications and luxurious colors, and even a few dresses that, by their brand, were clearly worth thousands or tens of thousands of Yuan each.
Xu Wanxing thought for a moment. His plotline with Pei Yu was supposed to involve first incurring his disgust and then sucking up to him, right?
How to make Pei Yu despise him? This should be easy.
He had succeeded with just a few light words in the dormitory. Now, Xu Wanxing’s confidence was through the roof.
“Wanxing: Why are these just a bunch of random gifts? I don’t like any of them, aww. It’s obvious Brother didn’t put his heart into this and didn’t buy things properly for me.”
Unbeatable.
Pei Yu had sent so many things, yet he didn’t like any of them. This was sure to make him angry.
Xu Wanxing joyfully carried the large box. As he stepped through the school gate, he suddenly remembered that this box absolutely could not be left in the dorm. If Pei Yu saw it, he would be assassinated in person.
Xu Wanxing stopped, placed the box on the ground, and began to contemplate a good place to hide it.
“Xu Wanxing, what a coincidence.”
The person walked up to Xu Wanxing, who looked up.
It was Ji Rongyu.
Ji Rongyu immediately noticed the large box on the ground, and his heart secretly rejoiced. This was his chance.
“Is it too heavy to move? Don’t worry, I’ll help you carry it.” Ji Rongyu bent down to lift the box, only to realize it wasn’t heavy. So, was this another opportunity Xu Wanxing deliberately gave him?
What a little kitten, playing hard to get.
Ji Rongyu’s mind was a mess, but outwardly he still maintained his image as a noble, aloof gentleman, looking very natural and indifferent, as if he were merely helping someone by chance.
Xu Wanxing quickly waved his hands. “No need, no need, really, no need.”
“It’s fine. Are you taking it to the dorm? Let’s go,” Ji Rongyu said, stepping out with his long legs, walking straight toward Xu Wanxing’s dormitory.
Xu Wanxing’s eyes caught a familiar figure in the distance—it was Pei Yu, walking toward them.
Alarm bells went off!
It was absolutely vital that Pei Yu did not see this.
It seemed those who pretended to be an online lover with a roommate’s belongings never came to a good end. He didn’t want that outcome.
He’d either get beaten up by his roommate or be bent.
He wanted neither.
Zhou Wei’s earlier warning to be careful of Pei Yu hitting people was still fresh in his mind. As for being bent, that was even less possible; he was straight!
Xu Wanxing threw all courtesy out the window, rushed up, and grabbed Ji Rongyu, spinning him in a different direction.
At the same time, Xu Wanxing chose a path lined with large trees, hoping they would block Pei Yu’s line of sight.
Ji Rongyu felt the hand around his waist. The place where Xu Wanxing touched him felt itchy, as if it were on fire.
A huge wave crashed in Ji Rongyu’s heart, yet his face remained calm and indifferent.
Xu Wanxing mentally praised Ji Rongyu for being reliable. He quickly walked with his arm around him.
Gradually, Ji Rongyu sensed something was wrong. “Why are we walking this way? This doesn’t lead to your dorm.”
Xu Wanxing forced a smile, secretly glancing behind him out of the corner of his eye for any sign of Pei Yu. He sighed in relief only after he saw no trace of him, then stopped walking.
“I walked this way… because I wanted to take a walk with you for a bit longer.” Xu Wanxing casually made up an excuse. The tension he had been holding onto immediately eased, causing him to overlook the bright red flush on Ji Rongyu’s ears.
Ji Rongyu subtly curved his lips, his eyes softening.
A surge of sweetness spread through his heart.
He had previously rushed into another man’s arms right in front of him and gone on a date with him, yet now he wanted to take a longer walk with him. What a flirtatious little Alpha.
Ji Rongyu said, “Alright, I’ll walk with you then. Shouldn’t we put this box back in the dorm first?”
“Just bring it along. I feel safer with this box.”
What a strange preference.
Along the way, Ji Rongyu spoke of the charitable work he had been doing recently, mentioning the establishment of a charitable foundation. Xu Wanxing was astonished. Were rich people so lavish when doing charity?
The money flowed like rushing water.
Xu Wanxing sighed over his own poverty and marveled at the wealth of others.
He managed to squeeze out one phrase after a long silence: “You really have a lot of compassion.” And money, he thought.
Ji Rongyu didn’t catch his hidden meaning and nodded, quite pleased.
Many students on the road watched the two of them with surprise, focusing mainly on the Campus Heartthrob. They wondered what kind of strange habit the Campus Heartthrob had, walking slowly on the road while holding a huge box.
Ji Rongyu himself looked like a noble gentleman attending a banquet, with elegance in every movement, but the box in his hand forcefully ruined that sense of grace.
It made him look somewhat like a delivery worker.
Several sharp-eyed students recognized the person beside him as the “Melodramatic Little White Flower” from the cafeteria incident.
Yes, everyone now referred to Xu Wanxing as the “Melodramatic Little White Flower” because they weren’t quite sure what his name was.
The posts on the campus forum grew rapidly.
“Extra! Extra! The Campus Heartthrob is walking on the road with that Melodramatic Little White Flower again.”
Before long, the replies under the post had reached several hundred.
“Who is the Melodramatic Little White Flower?”
“The one next to the Campus Heartthrob. Earlier, in the cafeteria, his tray was knocked over, and he was picking up the mess on the floor, looking so pathetic that even I wanted to help him, but the Campus Heartthrob also squatted down to help him clean up, so I didn’t go.”
“To the one above, I feel like this Melodramatic Little White Flower is not simple. He’s very scheming. He has the kind of tactics to charm the Campus Heartthrob like this.”
“Wuwuwu, why doesn’t my Campus Heartthrob like me and instead like that Little White Flower?”
“Can you knock over your tray and have the Campus Heartthrob help you clean it up? Can you get the Campus Heartthrob to hug a big box and walk the road with you?”
Just those few steps on the road today made Xu Wanxing a hit on the campus forum again, but Xu Wanxing himself was unaware; he was still pondering the box’s fate.
