Why Won’t the Heroine Break Up With Me? [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 56
After making plans with Yun Li to show her around Nan City during the National Day holiday, Fu Wanyi began preparing her itinerary.
For several days in a row, Fu Wanyi wore a radiant, spring-like smile.
This caught the attention of her roommate, Wang Meixi.
One day, when Wang Meixi noticed Fu Wanyi unconsciously smiling again, she couldn’t hold back her curiosity any longer and asked, “Wanyi, has something good happened recently?”
Fu Wanyi was momentarily taken aback before replying, “Why do you ask?”
Wang Meixi’s question also drew the attention of Zhu Xiaolei and Tang Yingyuan, both of whom looked at Fu Wanyi with curiosity in their eyes.
“Because you’ve seemed so happy these past few days.”
Zhu Xiaolei couldn’t help chiming in, “Yeah, Wanyi, you’ve been smiling so much lately.”
Once, when she returned to the dorm, she even heard Fu Wanyi humming softly, her beautiful dark eyes sparkling with joy.
Hearing this, Fu Wanyi couldn’t resist touching her own face.
She seemed a bit confused. “Is it that obvious?”
She had indeed been in high spirits lately, especially after chatting with Yun Li. But she hadn’t realized her happiness was so apparent that even her roommates had noticed.
“Of course!” Zhu Xiaolei nodded, then ventured a bold guess. “Wanyi, did you win the lottery or something?”
Fu Wanyi: “…”
She felt a little exasperated. Zhu Xiaolei always had such wild ideas, and this time was no exception.
“Nothing like that.”
“Then why are you so happy?”
Not wanting to reveal her true feelings to her roommates, Fu Wanyi replied, “National Day is coming up soon. I’m just happy about that.”
Really?
Wang Meixi and Tang Yingyuan clearly didn’t buy Fu Wanyi’s explanation, but since she seemed unwilling to elaborate, they tactfully refrained from pressing further. In contrast, Zhu Xiaolei took Fu Wanyi’s words at face value and immediately grew excited.
“Oh, right! National Day is almost here!” Zhu Xiaolei beamed. “What are your plans for the holiday?”
Tang Yingyuan was the first to answer. “I found a part-time job.”
Her family’s financial situation wasn’t great, so she often took on part-time work during holidays. Even on regular weekdays, she worked at a drink stand in the campus cafeteria. Zhu Xiaolei wasn’t surprised by her choice.
“What about you, Meixi?” Zhu Xiaolei turned to Wang Meixi.
“I made plans with Shiqi to visit Ming City for a few days during the holiday.”
Shiqi’s full name was Ma Shiqi, a girl from the dorm next door.
Hearing this, Zhu Xiaolei couldn’t hide her envy. “I wish I could travel too, but I have to go home for the holiday.”
At the thought, she pouted slightly. Glancing at Fu Wanyi out of the corner of her eye, she asked, “What about you, Wanyi?”
“I’m planning to travel too.”
Just thinking about it made Fu Wanyi eager for the holiday to arrive.
Zhu Xiaolei was thoroughly envious.
Wang Meixi, however, gave Fu Wanyi a thoughtful look. “Wanyi, where are you planning to go?”
“Just around Nan City.”
Hearing this, Zhu Xiaolei made a face reminiscent of the “subway, old man, looking at phone” meme.
“Seriously? You’re just going to wander around Nan City during the National Day holiday?” Zhu Xiaolei found it a little hard to believe. “Wanyi, aren’t you from Nan City? Haven’t you already explored every corner of it?”
Fu Wanyi didn’t mind their lack of enthusiasm. “I’ve been searching online these past few days and found a newly opened agritainment resort in Nanchang. It’s said to be quite upscale, I want to check it out.”
Upon hearing “agritainment resort,” Wang Meixi and the others immediately lost interest.
Fu Wanyi remained unbothered because she had already asked Yun Li earlier, and Yun Li seemed quite intrigued by the idea.
Having no interest in the topic, Zhu Xiaolei picked up her phone and started playing a game without another word.
Just like that, the dorm fell silent.
Fu Wanyi was used to this kind of reaction. She turned around and caught sight of her phone on the desk out of the corner of her eye. Inevitably, she thought of Yun Li and felt like chatting with her. But just as she picked up her phone, she remembered that Yun Li was in class at that hour. Suppressing the urge to talk, she went back to planning her trip.
…
Time flew by, and soon, National Day arrived.
On September 30th, almost as soon as classes ended, Qiu Jingmei and Bei Qingqing hurried back to the dorm. Grabbing their already packed suitcases, they bid farewell to Yun Li and Fang Haiyi before leaving.
With the two gone, the dorm suddenly felt empty.
Yun Li and Fang Haiyi couldn’t help but exchange glances.
“Aren’t you going to pack?” Yun Li asked.
“No, we won’t be staying overnight.”
Yun Li understood. She pulled out her 26-inch suitcase and began leisurely packing her clothes.
According to Fu Wanyi’s travel plan, they would spend two days at the newly opened agritainment resort in Nanchang, followed by a few days exploring the city’s famous ancient town.
As Yun Li mulled over the trip, she continued packing the clothes she’d need.
Before she knew it, an hour had passed, and her luggage was ready.
By then, Yun Li was feeling a bit hungry. She looked up at Fang Haiyi and asked, “Haiyi, are you hungry?”
“Not really.”
Yun Li had been hoping to go to the cafeteria with Fang Haiyi, but her response dashed that idea.
“I’m heading out to eat. Do you want me to bring you something?”
“No, thanks. I’m skipping dinner tonight.”
Yun Li couldn’t help but admire Fang Haiyi for that.
Fang Haiyi was 162 cm tall and weighed over 60 kg. She wanted to lose weight, so she had been skipping dinner lately.
Yun Li couldn’t imagine going without dinner herself, so she truly respected Fang Haiyi’s determination.
“Alright, I’m heading out then.”
“Go ahead.”
Yun Li picked up her keys, stuffed a pack of tissues into her pocket, and leisurely made her way out.
Ten minutes later, she arrived at the cafeteria.
After browsing the options, she settled on a dish of Chinese broccoli and chicken drumsticks. Carrying her tray, she found an empty seat and sat down to eat.
Just then, her phone vibrated in her pocket.
Picking it up, she saw a message from Fu Wanyi, and her eyes instantly curved into crescents.
[Fu Wanyi: Have you eaten?]
Yun Li snapped a photo of her meal and sent it to Fu Wanyi.
Soon after, Fu Wanyi sent back a photo of her own.
Yun Li opened it to see that Fu Wanyi was having tomato and egg noodles, topped with a perfectly fried sunny-side-up egg.
Just one glance, and Yun Li’s mouth was watering.
Oh no, now she was craving a fried egg, what was she going to do?
Yun Li wrinkled her nose.
[Fu Wanyi: Are you eating alone today?]
Fu Wanyi felt a tinge of regret, thinking that if she had known Yun Li was dining alone tonight, she would have invited her out for a meal.
The more she thought about it, the more regretful she felt.
[Yun Li: Yeah, both my roommates went home, so I’m the only one having dinner tonight.]
[Yun Li: By the way, did you cook this yourself, Senior?]
[Fu Wanyi: Yes, I did.]
[Yun Li: That’s amazing!]
[Fu Wanyi: Is it really that amazing just for making a bowl of tomato and egg noodles?]
Fu Wanyi couldn’t help but smile.
[Yun Li: Well, I don’t know how to cook, so I think anyone who can cook is amazing!]
[Yun Li: And the fried egg you made looks so perfect, it must be delicious, right? [drooling][drooling][drooling]]
Seeing this, Fu Wanyi had an idea.
[Fu Wanyi: How about I let you try my cooking next time?]
[Yun Li: Really?]
[Fu Wanyi: Of course.]
[Yun Li: Looking forward to it~]
[Fu Wanyi: [cute][cute][cute]]
[Yun Li: Alright, I’ll stop here. I’m going to eat now.]
[Fu Wanyi: Okay.]
Yun Li put away her phone and prepared to eat. But as she looked at the simple meal of one meat and one vegetable dish in front of her, she couldn’t help but think of that perfectly fried egg.
It looked so appetizing, it must be delicious, right?
Ugh, she was already eagerly looking forward to tasting Fu Wanyi’s cooking.
As the female lead, she must be a great cook, right?
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, to the point that the food in front of her no longer seemed appealing.
…
Beep,
A faint alarm sounded in the dimly lit dorm room. After a moment, it was turned off, and the room fell silent again.
About ten minutes later, the alarm went off once more. This time, it took about half a minute before it was silenced again.
Shortly after, rustling sounds could be heard in the dim room. Then, a pair of pale, slender hands reached out from behind the bed curtain. With a swift motion, she pulled the curtain aside, revealing herself.
Through the white mosquito net, Yun Li glanced at Fang Haiyi’s bed.
Fang Haiyi hadn’t drawn her bed curtain, so Yun Li could see that her bed was empty.
Yun Li scratched her cheek and tentatively called out Fang Haiyi’s name. When no response came after a while, she realized Fang Haiyi had already left.
But…
Yun Li picked up her phone and checked the time, it was only 8:10 a.m. Had Fang Haiyi already gone out?
That was way too early.
Yun Li couldn’t help but yawn as she slowly climbed down from her bed.
She placed her phone on the desk and went to the balcony to wash up.
When she returned, Yun Li habitually unlocked her phone and was surprised to see a message from Fu Wanyi.
[Fu Wanyi: Junior, are you awake?]
[Yun Li: Just woke up!]
[Fu Wanyi: I’ll come pick you up later. What would you like for breakfast?]
[Yun Li: I’m fine with anything, you decide, Senior.]
[Fu Wanyi: How about soy milk and soup dumplings?]
[Yun Li: Sounds good~]
[Fu Wanyi: OK.]
With breakfast settled, Yun Li put her phone down. She took some clothes from her wardrobe, changed into them, and then sat at her desk to do her makeup.
Yun Li didn’t like heavy makeup, so she applied a light, natural look.
The subtle makeup enhanced her complexion nicely. Yun Li examined herself in the mirror from different angles and nodded in satisfaction.
So pretty.
She muttered to herself inwardly, then picked up her phone and took several vain selfies.
It wasn’t until 8:45 that Yun Li reluctantly closed the photo app, changed into a brand new pair of beige Mary Janes, and then pulled her suitcase along as she leisurely left the dormitory.
By the time Yun Li arrived at the school gate with her suitcase, it was already 9 o’clock. Just as she was about to look for Fu Wanyi’s light silver SUV, the vehicle had already pulled up in front of her.
At that moment, the passenger-side window of the SUV was open. Yun Li slightly lowered her head and met Fu Wanyi’s dark eyes, which were brimming with laughter.
“Senior!”
Yun Li called out sweetly. Unbeknownst to her, hearing her voice made Fu Wanyi feel completely refreshed, both physically and mentally.
“Let me help you put your suitcase in the trunk.”
“No, no, I can do it myself.”
Saying this, Yun Li pulled her suitcase to the back of the car and effortlessly placed her 26-inch suitcase into the trunk.
Once that was done, Yun Li made her way to the passenger seat, opened the door, and got in.
As soon as she sat down, Fu Wanyi handed her a cup of warm soy milk.
Yun Li reached out to take it and slowly took a sip.
The soy milk was rich and smooth, incredibly delicious.
Seeing Yun Li squint her eyes in enjoyment, the smile in Fu Wanyi’s eyes deepened.
“And here are some soup dumplings.”
Fu Wanyi handed over a box.
Yun Li took it and, while opening the box, asked, “Senior, have you had breakfast yet?”
“Yes, I have.”
“Okay.”
Yun Li picked up a soup dumpling, carefully took a small bite, and then sipped the savory broth.
The broth was still a bit hot, but within Yun Li’s acceptable range.
After sipping most of the broth, she took another bite. The thin wrapper encased the savory meat filling, creating an indescribable deliciousness.
This is so good!
It was the first time Yun Li had tasted such delicious soup dumplings, and her beautiful peach-blossom eyes lit up.
Seeing Yun Li’s expression through the rearview mirror, Fu Wanyi thought she looked utterly adorable, stirring an impulse to kiss her.
But remembering their current relationship, Fu Wanyi suppressed the urge and asked with a smile, “Is it good?”
“Oh my god, it’s amazing! I can honestly say these are the best soup dumplings I’ve ever had!”
“I’m glad you like them.”
“Senior, where did you buy them?”
“Chen Ji, that shop is quite famous.”
Yun Li hummed in acknowledgment, took out her phone, and searched for the location of Chen Ji. To her surprise, she found that the shop was quite far from A University. Thinking that Fu Wanyi had gone all the way there to buy her breakfast, she suddenly felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
This female lead is just too good!
If they were to get together in the future, she probably wouldn’t even want to break up with her, would she?
But no, she still had to complete her mission.
With that thought, Yun Li couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful, especially when she considered that such a wonderful female lead would eventually belong to Yun Yao. She found it even more regrettable.
After all, in her opinion, Yun Yao, with her two-faced nature, was simply not worthy of someone as good as Fu Wanyi.
Unfortunately, Yun Yao was the official love interest…
There was nothing Yun Li could do but sigh helplessly in her heart.
…
There were six soup dumplings in the box. Based on Yun Li’s appetite, she would normally be full after three, but the dumplings were so delicious that she ended up finishing all six in one go.
After finishing, she packed up the container and patted her round belly.
“Full?”
“Very, very full.”
Hearing this, Fu Wanyi furrowed her brow slightly with concern. “Will you still be able to eat lunch later?”
Yun Li felt a bit guilty. “Well…”
“Hmm?”
“I’m not sure…” Yun Li gave an awkward laugh.
At this, Fu Wanyi understood completely. There was nothing she could do about Yun Li, so she could only speak in a gentle, doting tone. “You…”
For some reason, Yun Li felt her ears tingling and couldn’t resist rubbing them.
“We can have lunch a bit later…” Yun Li said to Fu Wanyi with a slightly coquettish tone.
Fu Wanyi noticed it, and her heart warmed.
Oh my, my junior is acting cute with me.
She’s really adorable.
I want to kiss her again.
Fu Wanyi could only take a deep breath to suppress the impulse.
…
The newly opened agritourism farm in Nan City was called Yunxi Farmstead, and it was quite far from A University. Fu Wanyi drove for over an hour before arriving.
After parking the car, Fu Wanyi opened the trunk and took out both her and Yun Li’s suitcases.
Yun Li was busy examining Yunxi Farmstead in the distance.
The farmstead had a classical style, making it exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
“Let’s go check in.”
“Okay.”
Yun Li took her suitcase from Fu Wanyi, and the two walked into Yunxi Farmstead together.
Perhaps because of the National Day holiday, the farmstead was crowded. They had to wait in line for a while before it was their turn to check in.
Fu Wanyi had booked a twin room. After completing the check-in process, she took the key card and led Yun Li to the elevator.
“What’s our room number?”
“517.”
Yun Li nodded to show she understood.
“Ding!”
Soon, they reached the fifth floor.
Fu Wanyi glanced at the signs and quickly found room 517.
After swiping the key card and entering, Yun Li discovered that the accommodation at this agritourism farm was quite nice. The room was spacious, at least forty square meters.
Yun Li pulled her suitcase inside, took a look around the room, and then went to the bathroom, where she was delighted to find a bathtub.
“Senior, there’s a bathtub!”
Yun Li’s excited voice echoed from the bathroom.
Fu Wanyi chuckled softly. She walked to the bathroom and leaned against the doorframe, smiling as she watched Yun Li staring intently at the bathtub.
“You like it that much?”
“Mm-hmm, I haven’t taken a bath in a month. I really miss it.”
A bath?
Fu Wanyi thought of the bathtub in her apartment, which was big enough for two, and her gaze darkened.
“Do you like taking baths, Senior?”
Yun Li asked at that moment.
Fu Wanyi snapped out of her thoughts and replied in her usual gentle tone, “It’s alright. I take one occasionally when I’m tired.”
“I see.”
“You can take a bath tonight.”
Yun Li had been thinking the same thing and hummed in agreement.
Leaving the bathroom, Yun Li went to sit on the bed near the balcony.
“Senior, I’ll sleep on this side tonight.”
“Okay.”
“So, what should we do now?”
Yun Li glanced at the time. It was only a little past ten, still too early for lunch. Plus, she wasn’t hungry at all, so she wanted to find something to pass the time.
“This farm stay has several activities like a horse ranch, orchard, fishing pond, go-kart track, shooting range, and indoor rock climbing. Which one would you like to try now?”
Yun Li was quite interested in the horse ranch and the fishing pond, but the sun was too intense at the moment, so she wasn’t keen on going to the horse ranch. However, when she thought about the fishing pond, she remembered that Fu Wanyi had once nearly drowned as a child. She wasn’t sure if Fu Wanyi would want to go to the fishing pond.
Seeing Yun Li’s troubled expression, Fu Wanyi raised an eyebrow.
“What’s wrong? What’s bothering you?”
“Senior, can I ask you a question?”
“Go ahead.”
“Do you have any lingering fears? Like after that incident with falling into the water…”
Fu Wanyi was sharp and immediately understood Yun Li’s implication. “You want to go to the fishing pond?”
Yun Li nodded.
“I don’t have any lingering fears. We can go to the fishing pond.” Fu Wanyi felt a warmth in her heart, realizing that Yun Li was concerned about her. “After that incident, I signed up for swimming lessons. I can swim now, and when I had free time before, I used to go fishing with my grandfather.”
Hearing Fu Wanyi speak so calmly about these things, Yun Li felt a mix of emotions.
Was this what made her the female lead?
Seeing Yun Li fall silent, Fu Wanyi added, “Let’s go, we’ll head to the fishing pond.”
Yun Li snapped out of her thoughts and got up from the bed.
“Alright.”
With that, the two of them left Room 517 one after the other.
Downstairs, Fu Wanyi followed the signs and found the fishing pond.
At that moment, the fishing pond was surrounded by quite a few people, mostly adults, with a few children using fishing nets to scoop fish from the pond.
Yun Li watched with great interest, completely unaware that Fu Wanyi had gone to fetch two fishing rods, bait, and a bucket.
“Here.”
Yun Li turned at the sound and saw Fu Wanyi handing her a fishing rod.
“Huh? When did you get these, Senior?”
“While you were busy watching the commotion.”
Yun Li smiled sheepishly.
“Let’s go fishing.”
Fu Wanyi walked around the fishing pond and quickly found an empty spot. She led Yun Li over and, while preparing the fishing spot, asked, “Have you ever fished before, Junior?”
“No,” Yun Li shook her head honestly.
“Then I’ll teach you.”
After preparing the spot, Fu Wanyi demonstrated how to fish in front of Yun Li.
Yun Li watched intently, her earnest expression making Fu Wanyi’s heart melt.
How could someone be so beautiful and adorable?
Fu Wanyi couldn’t help but marvel inwardly.
“Did you get it?” she asked.
“My eyes learned it.”
Pfft…
Fu Wanyi couldn’t hold back her laughter.
“Don’t laugh!”
“Alright, I won’t.”
Even as she said this, Fu Wanyi’s eyes were still filled with amusement.
Yun Li pretended not to notice and mimicked Fu Wanyi’s earlier actions, baiting the hook and casting it into the pond.
“How’s that?” Yun Li tilted her chin up proudly.
“Not bad,” Fu Wanyi nodded approvingly.
Satisfied, Yun Li sat down and waited for a fish to bite.
About three minutes later, the fishing line trembled. Yun Li quickly pulled up the rod, thinking she had caught a fish, only to find the hook empty.
“That’s pretty normal,” Fu Wanyi reassured her.
Yun Li wrinkled her nose, re-baited the hook, cast it back into the pond, and settled in to wait patiently.
But perhaps Yun Li was just too inexperienced, because half an hour passed without her catching a single fish. Meanwhile, Fu Wanyi beside her had already reeled in two plump crucian carps.
Yun Li: “…”
Refusing to accept defeat, she puffed out her cheeks and continued fishing.
Seeing this, Fu Wanyi shook her head with an amused smile.
This junior sure had a strong competitive streak, though it was rather endearing.
Yun Li stared intently at her fishing rod, and as soon as the line began to tremble, she swiftly reeled it in. This time, she finally didn’t come up empty-handed!
She had actually caught a fish!
Overjoyed, Yun Li placed the fish in a bucket before impulsively hugging Fu Wanyi beside her, hopping up and down on the spot like an excited child.
“Senior, senior! I caught a fish!”
Her sudden action made Fu Wanyi instinctively hold her breath. She stared fixedly at the face so close to hers, thinking that all she needed to do was tilt her head slightly to kiss Yun Li’s cheek.
This impulse surged wildly within Fu Wanyi’s heart, but in the end, she restrained herself. She raised her hand and gently patted Yun Li’s back, her voice tinged with restraint. “You’re really amazing, junior.”
Yun Li beamed even more brightly, but soon, she realized she was still holding Fu Wanyi. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly stepped back to put some distance between them.
Feeling the emptiness in her arms, Fu Wanyi felt a pang of disappointment, though she didn’t let it show. She smiled softly and asked, “Shall we keep going, junior?”
Yun Li glanced at the time and, seeing it was still early, replied, “Let’s keep going!”
“Alright, let’s continue then.”
Yun Li hummed in agreement as she baited the hook, though her mind was slightly distracted. She couldn’t help stealing glances at Fu Wanyi.
Hmm, she had just hugged Fu Wanyi, so why hadn’t she reacted at all?
Unconsciously, Yun Li felt a little disappointed.
