The School Beauty from the Next Class Insisted I Confess - Chapter 46
Xu Qingfeng was still struggling, but the sounds of cheering around her grew louder, even involving Liu Xiao. It was clear that not participating would really spoil the fun.
Xia Yiqiu stood up immediately, walked to Liang Hao, opened the Pocky box, and took out a stick with two fingers.
Xu Qingfeng watched Xia Yiqiu, whose eyes were fixed on her, burning brightly.
“Qingfeng, are you willing?” How could she not be willing?
Xu Qingfeng forced out a clear thought from her muddled brain, “I am willing.”
Xu Ni Qiufeng Fan Club
- Little Wind: Wow, are you willing? I am willing. This isn’t a wedding vow, smirking JPG.
- Han Feng: Don’t just listen, look! Look at the Vice President’s eyes, they’re practically mesmerized.
- Liang Hao: Is there a possibility that she’s drunk?
- Little Wind: No such possibility! I declare this is the moment they fall in love.
- Han Feng: Look, look! It’s starting!
- Club Member A: Keep going, don’t cut the live broadcast.
At this moment, Han Feng, for the sake of his group friends, decided to secretly take a photo of the Pocky game, just like Liang Hao. Clearly, his paparazzi skills were inferior to Liang Hao’s.
“Click.” Not only was the stereo still on, but the flash on the covert camera was also not disabled.
How awkward. Han Feng braved the pressure of everyone’s stares, first sending the photo to the group, and then starting to explain.
“Well, I was just trying to turn on the flashlight mode, would you believe me?” Han Feng’s explanation was so weak.
You think we’re stupid?! everyone present thought.
The two people at the center of the photo, however, didn’t have the presence of mind to look at Han Feng.
“Thump, thump, thump.”
Xu Qingfeng could hear her own heartbeat. She felt her head getting heavier and heavier.
Yiqiu was wearing lipstick today, a bright red-bean paste color. It was glossy, and her lips were full and moist.
They look very kissable.
Xia Yiqiu took a large bite first. The distance between them grew smaller and smaller.
Only one thought remained in Xu Qingfeng’s mind: I want to eat it too.
By the time everyone recovered, the two beautiful faces were only two centimeters apart.
Silence. The noise in the room vanished.
Xia Yiqiu hadn’t expected the usually “dumb” Xu to be so bold. She was about to bite the Pocky to end the game when a pair of hands fixed her waist, and the distance between them became negative.
“Class Monitor.” “President Xu.” “Bookworm Xu.” ……
Due to the angle, and the darkness, everyone only saw Xu Qingfeng instantly collapsing into Xia Yiqiu’s arms, and didn’t see what she had actually done.
“It looks like she’s passed out from drinking. Well, she’s never had alcohol since she was little, so today’s an exception. But this girl, this fruit wine is practically a soft drink, how can she get so drunk?” Gao Zhi stepped forward to help Xia Yiqiu position Xu Qingfeng properly, explaining out loud to everyone.
Xia Yiqiu allowed Gao Zhi to take care of Xu Qingfeng. Right now, her own mind was somewhat sluggish.
The feeling on her lips just now, she remembered it very clearly.
Gao Zhi patted Xu Qingfeng several times, confirming that the person was truly unconscious. She said to Xia Yiqiu, “I’ll call Auntie Yan later and ask her to come pick her up.”
“No need to trouble her. Tomorrow is Sunday, let her stay at my place,” Xia Yiqiu replied.
“That works too. She’s a big girl, and drunk people are like dead pigs, it’s a hassle to move her. I’ll explain to Auntie Yan later,” Gao Zhi nodded, agreeing with Xia Yiqiu’s suggestion.
“However, my house is also close. How about we move her to my place?”
Gao Zhi felt it wasn’t right to leave her childhood friend at someone else’s house. Although Xu Qingfeng and Xia Yiqiu’s relationship had advanced rapidly this semester, she might not rank highly in Xu Qingfeng’s life anymore. Still, she didn’t want to trouble Xia Yiqiu, who was celebrating her birthday and now had to look after a drunk person.
Li Tian pinched Gao Zhi. This Gao Le Gao (a Chinese chocolate-flavored drink), Yiqiu had complained to her before about Gao Zhi’s lack of emotional intelligence. At the time, she didn’t feel it much, but now it seemed that Gao Zhi truly wasn’t good at observation.
Li Tian’s assessment was very subtle.
“Tian Tian, what’s wrong?” Gao Zhi was even a little excited by the pinch, as it meant Li Tian still cared about her.
“Stop arguing, just leave her here,” Xia Yiqiu was certainly one hundred percent willing to take care of Xu Qingfeng.
Since it was getting late, and with Xu Qingfeng drunk and passed out, it wasn’t appropriate to continue the fun. Liang Hao took the lead, suggesting they all disband and go home.
Everyone cleaned up before leaving, putting all the trash into the bins.
There was still some regret. Liang Hao speculated that more than just fainting had happened; something else must have occurred. Based on her understanding of her deskmate, there was no reason for her to suddenly lose her composure.
Now was not the time to think about this. Kong Qiaofeng in front of her seemed off.
They had just bid farewell to everyone at the entrance of Xia Yiqiu’s house. Liang Hao was preparing to take Kong Qiaofeng home first. Kong Qiaofeng had specifically asked her to do so. The apartment wasn’t far, so she accompanied her to the ground floor. However, the little tyrant had been unusually quiet the whole way.
“Did you remember it? Unit 2, 507. That’s my address. From now on, when I call you, you have to come immediately,” Kong Qiaofeng recovered her composure and said in a demanding tone.
“I remember, Qiaofeng.”
“Call me Idol!” The silver-haired girl instantly flared up.
“I’m leaving, Qiaofeng.” Liang Hao ignored her protest. If the kitten wanted to scratch you, it would have already.
“I said, it’s IDOL!!!”
Kong Qiaofeng stomped her foot behind her. Why had this person become so disobedient? Now, all her sharp barbs had been shed, revealing her original youthful spirit.
The moment the front door closed, Kong Qiaofeng recalled everything from today. Thinking of Liang Hao’s persistence, she smiled brightly.
In Xia Yiqiu’s backyard, Gao Zhi and Li Tian sat together on a swing bench. It was located in an open-air gazebo formed by white Roman columns, with flowers and plants growing all around.
Li Tian watched the occasional twinkling stars in the sky, her toes touching the ground to gently sway the long bench. She looked up at the sky, her eyes deep, her demeanor serene and ethereal. Gao Zhi, next to her, watched her, trying not to make a sound, minimizing her presence.
“Gao Zhi, are you angry?” Li Tian asked softly.
“Me? No, I’m not angry.” Gao Zhi didn’t understand why Li Tian would ask that.
“Haha, Gao Le Gao,” Li Tian sighed, speaking her mind. “Gao Le Gao, let’s not see each other again.”
“Why? That’s not fair, you have to tell me the reason.” Gao Zhi stood up and said loudly. She didn’t understand; everything had been so good, why couldn’t they continue?
Remembering Xia Yiqiu’s words, Li Tian decided to be clear.
“Gao Zhi, you are wonderful, kind, and optimistic, but you are too naive, like a child. I’m afraid.” The swing bench stopped moving. The person sitting on it showed no discernible emotion.
“Afraid of what? What is there to be afraid of?” Gao Zhi didn’t understand. Everything was so beautiful, why couldn’t they continue?
“Tell me how you want me to change, I can do anything. Tian Tian, please trust me, okay?” Gao Zhi excitedly grasped Li Tian’s wrist, wanting her to look at her and say the words she longed to hear.
“Gao Le Gao, please leave.”
Li Tian walked upstairs first, leaving Gao Zhi standing still in the same spot.
Gao Zhi, I’m afraid that the longer this goes on, when you leave, we will be the ones who are already broken.
Gao Zhi sat there and thought for a long time, not moving.
Xia Yiqiu had already left Xu Qingfeng’s guest room. She found Li Tian upstairs by a floor-to-ceiling window that overlooked the backyard. She watched Li Tian staring at Gao Zhi downstairs and asked, confused:
“Sigh, why are you so silly? I can see it, she won’t change.”
Having seen too many partings and changes abroad, Li Tian, who had early exposure to her family’s business affairs, was accustomed to looking at things with a rational mindset.
“She will. Everything changes with time and space, nothing lasts forever. At least coming back this time gave us a formal breakup.”
Li Tian had thought about it for a long time before coming. She had been struggling. A few days ago, when she saw Kong Qiaofeng, she even realized that she liked Gao Zhi more and more. But this lack of control frightened her.
That pure and kind girl would be liked by many. She couldn’t bear to make her wait so long, and she was afraid.
She was afraid that their ending would be a pile of broken glass, afraid that what would come was her falling in love with someone else, or being so worn down by time that only routine remained, turning love into an inescapable obligation.
“Then don’t regret it. What will you do if she truly falls for someone else later?” Xia Yiqiu was frustrated with Li Tian. When did she become so obstinate?
“Time will forget everything. At least the process was beautiful, and the ending isn’t betrayal,” Li Tian said quietly.
Xia Yiqiu felt a sense of unfamiliarity with her for the first time. Looking at the increasingly glamorous and distant Li Tian, she realized how much she had grown up.
What happened in the past six months?
“You go think about it yourself. I’m going to check on Qingfeng.”
Before closing the door, she glanced inside. Li Tian was sitting on a stool, and a single tear rolled down her cheek. It was just one, caught by the light, allowing Xia Yiqiu to see it.
“Sigh.”
Xia Yiqiu closed the door, walked away from the room, and made a phone call.
“Yes, help me find out exactly what happened.” “Money is not an issue, but it has to be detailed.”
The next morning.
“Hmm, where is this?” Xu Qingfeng was woken by the sunlight outside. She shielded her eyes; it was quite bright.
She looked around. It looked a bit like the guest room where she had bathed at Yiqiu’s house last time. Did she stay at Yiqiu’s house last night?
Why? Before she lost consciousness, she seemed to be eating a biscuit. She thought for a long time but still couldn’t recall anything.
She noticed she wasn’t wearing yesterday’s clothes, but a set of pajamas.
No way, could Yiqiu have changed my clothes for me? Xu Qingfeng blushed at the thought.
Just then, the room door opened. It was Auntie Li.
“Oh, Xu student is awake. Yiqiu just asked me to check if you were up. These are your clothes; they’ve been dried. Come down for breakfast soon,” Auntie Li spoke kindly to Xu Qingfeng, treating her like one of her own juniors.
“Yes, I’ll be down in a moment.”
Just as Auntie Li put down the clothes and turned to leave, Xu Qingfeng called out to her, hesitantly asking, “Auntie Li, please, who changed my clothes yesterday?”
Xu Qingfeng was very nervous.
“Oh, I changed them for the little student yesterday,” Auntie Li paused for a moment before answering. She then quickly left. Yiqiu had specifically instructed her this morning that if Xu Qingfeng asked, she had to say she was the one who changed them. Thankfully, I didn’t let slip.
So that’s it! Xu Qingfeng relaxed, though for some reason, she felt a little disappointed.
Slap, slap, slap, she mentally chastised herself. Xu Qingfeng, where did those filthy thoughts come from? What is there to be disappointed about?
After changing her clothes, Xu Qingfeng went downstairs and saw Xia Yiqiu and Li Tian eating breakfast.
“You’re awake,” Xia Yiqiu asked cheerfully, recalling last night.
Last night, not wanting to disturb Auntie Li’s rest, she, with the help of Gao Zhi and the others, lifted Xu Qingfeng to the guest room. After everyone else left, she sat by the bed, quietly watching the person who didn’t fuss or make noise when drunk.
“Yiqiu, Yi, Qiu.” Xu Qingfeng, who had just been praised, started mumbling.
Xia Yiqiu leaned in to listen, “Yiqiu, I really want to kiss you.”
“Yiqiu, can I?”
The person in her sleep was getting restless, grabbing Xia Yiqiu’s arm. Xia Yiqiu’s heart was burning, her cheeks flushed slightly, looking charmingly shy. Unfortunately, the sleeping person couldn’t see it.
Xia Yiqiu listened to Xu Qingfeng’s heartbeat. “You can.” She kissed the person on the bed.
“Little dummy, you already kissed me, and you’re still asking? You were quite dominant before you fainted just now, just not very durable, you passed out so quickly.” She then got annoyed, poking the person’s face with her finger. “Tell me, you took all the advantage, and you still haven’t confessed.”
She freed Xu Qingfeng’s hand and fetched a new set of pajamas for her to change into; sleeping in those clothes wouldn’t be comfortable.
When unbuttoning Xu Qingfeng’s clothes, Xia Yiqiu saw her full set of abs for the first time. After checking her out a bit, she felt she had to take back some advantage herself.
When she saw the other person’s bra, Xia Yiqiu reacted as if she’d touched a hot potato, completely losing the boldness she had while touching the abs.
I won’t change this part. Xu dummy, don’t think about taking advantage.
Finally, before leaving, she whispered in the person’s ear: “Little bookworm, you better remember what you did before you passed out tonight when you wake up tomorrow morning.”
