The School Beauty from the Next Class Insisted I Confess - Chapter 23
Completely unaware of the situation, Xu Qingfeng was chatting happily. Beside her, Zhao Youning had already noticed the scrutinizing gaze from upstairs, and she responded with a raised eyebrow.
Don’t blame me for being despicable. Love is inherently without right or wrong. The final blow hasn’t landed; who wins is still unknown.
“Student Xu, shall we hang out again tomorrow?”
Zhao Youning grabbed Xu Qingfeng’s arm.
Xu Qingfeng really wanted to shake it off, but ultimately felt too awkward to do so.
Looking down from above, Xia Yiqiu saw the other girl provoking her, essentially declaring that Xu Qingfeng was hers for the taking.
Xia Yiqiu was very angry, and even more furious about the hand that refused to let go.
“Sure.” In this day and age, someone who could discuss history was too rare. Xu Qingfeng didn’t think anything was amiss.
However, she still subtly withdrew her arm, but by then she had already walked inside the building, and Xia Yiqiu didn’t see it.
The previously relaxed Xia Yiqiu was now visibly cross, her fists tightly clenched.
“Yiqiu, are you okay?” Liang Hao didn’t believe Xu Qingfeng would be unfaithful; that person’s eyes practically glued themselves onto Xia Yiqiu.
“I’m fine,” Xia Yiqiu said calmly.
It was cold, Liang Hao wrapped her jacket tighter, unsure if it was the autumn wind or a psychological effect.
“Ding-a-ling.” The bell for the second half of evening self-study rang out, and students in the hallways quickly hurried back to their seats.
Xu Qingfeng, who returned in a rush, saw the back of Xia Yiqiu from the adjacent classroom.
Did Yiqiu leave right after seeing me just now?
After evening self-study, Xu Qingfeng waited early by the door of the next classroom. Liang Hao came to the doorway first, patted her on the shoulder, and let out a heartfelt sigh.
? What does she mean by that?
Xia Yiqiu came out. Unlike her usual self, she didn’t strike up a conversation and walked straight out.
“Yiqiu, wait for me!” Xu Qingfeng chased after her.
“Yiqiu, why aren’t you talking to me?”
Xia Yiqiu stopped and waited for her, but still remained silent, curious to see what this person would say.
Without thinking too much, Xu Qingfeng began to talk about what she had seen and done today.
“I met a classmate while jogging tonight. She also has some unique insights into history. Her name is Zhao Younning, and she’s…”
Listening closely, Xia Yiqiu was already displeased. “Heh.” Her dissatisfaction spilled from the corner of her mouth.
“Yiqiu, what you said is so right! Talking to strangers not only helps you practice but also gives you new insights.”
Xu Qingfeng gesticulated wildly in the air with her hands, indicating her strong agreement with Xia Yiqiu’s previous statement.
“I find it truly fascinating now.” The excitement was ongoing.
Xia Yiqiu stopped walking. “Xu Qingfeng, don’t you think that was too fast?”
“Too fast for what?” Xu Qingfeng was confused.
“I mean, she, she grabbed your hand! That’s not something people who just met do.” Xia Yiqiu personally demonstrated, even going further by fully clutching Xu Qingfeng’s hand.
Xu Qingfeng rather enjoyed the feeling of Xia Yiqiu holding her.
Although she didn’t know how Yiqiu knew about it, she answered somewhat awkwardly, “I pulled it away.” Her voice was soft as she defended herself carefully.
It was inconsiderate of me, I shouldn’t have hesitated for so long, I should have pulled it away immediately. Yiqiu won’t misunderstand, will she?
“Yiqiu, you don’t like me chatting with her? Then I’ll tell her tomorrow when I run that I won’t chat anymore.”
Friends get jealous too, Xu Qingfeng understood.
“You run with her?” There was that too? She originally thought it was just chatting, but they were running together.
Xia Yiqiu knew Xu Qingfeng had a habit of running, but she really didn’t like the feeling of sweating, so she hadn’t forced herself to join.
No matter what, when spending the whole day together, one should always leave some personal space for the other person.
Now it seemed, this space was no longer necessary.
“Ah, yes.” Xu Qingfeng suddenly felt a strong urge to politely apologize and admit her mistake. Although she didn’t understand what mistake she had made, she now felt somehow in the wrong when speaking.
“Tomorrow, I’ll go with you.” Xia Yiqiu’s attitude was firm.
“Go do what?”
“Go running. What, are you unwilling?” Are you afraid I’ll interrupt you and someone else being all lovey-dovey?
“No, I’m willing.” I’m completely willing, Xu Qingfeng exclaimed, feeling a sudden surge of happiness that had unexpectedly struck her.
