Chapter 125 Misunderstanding
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Jian Chi logged on to HS after a long absence, and the post that was just posted on the Saintston campus section displayed a bright title – ‘If I remember correctly, next Friday is the Prince’s birthday, does anyone know the plan for this year? ‘
If Jian Chi didn’t know about it, he would have thought that Shao Hang’s birthday was an annual popular event in Saintston.
Although it’s important, it’s not that severe.
1L: I haven’t heard the news yet. I guess a party again. Fortunately, this time it’s a Friday. I remember that I had to go to class the next day after I went back last year. Half of the people in the classroom couldn’t get up due to their stomachs, making Lao Yang so angry.
2L: The pool party last year was very interesting. If it occurs again, I must call a few more girls, but why haven’t they set a location yet? Usually it’s time to send an invitation.
3L: Speaking of which, it seems that I haven’t heard from the prince for a long time, did he suddenly disappear?
4L: Upstairs, you don’t know yet, the prince had changed his mind. I have a friend who shares a class with him. Every day after class, they see the prince running to the library with his computer homework. They once thought that the prince was kidnapped.
5L: Hahaha you’re kidding?
6L: …It’s true, I was there, and the prince had started to attend classes every day for the past few weeks, and he improved by five positions in the last exam. It’s very magical.
7L: What news did I miss?
8L: I have the impression that it is because he is with the special student? I saw them two days ago when I went to the library to return books, Wen Chuan was there, and there was another YC I didn’t know.
9L: The vice president was not there?
10L: Wow, what a big game.
11L: I heard that they seem to have some situation… No, this post will be crooked if we continue to chat, why don’t I go to another post to chat, anyone watching?
12L: +1
13L: +1
…
45L: Aren’t you talking about the prince’s birthday? ? What are you talking about?
The following content had been completely crooked.
Ignoring the meaningless gossip, Jian Chi came up with several useful clues. First, Shao Hang invites many people to hold parties on his birthday every year. You can choose to come alone or bring your companions. There are no restrictions on gender. You don’t need to prepare gifts or say anything, it’s enough to have fun. This was a comment left by someone who participated in the post. It was said that there was an RC who accidentally damaged a certain expensive decoration in the party after being drunk, and the final compensation was also settled by Shao Hang. The fact was that the RC himself was at a loss.
People who celebrate their birthdays will take the initiative to take the lead. It would be hard to believe if this was someone else, but judging from Shao Hang’s unblinking splurge, Jian Chi was not surprised.
The second was that Shao Hang never celebrates his birthday. Such a statement seems contradictory, because every year Shao Hang made his birthday known to everyone. In fact though, there was never any cake, celebration, or gift at the party. In the beginning, many people sent some precious gifts to Shao Hang out of blessing or flattery, and they were returned without exception. Later, he didn’t know who started to say that Shao Hang hated receiving gifts, just like he hated hearing about his father, and the students of Saintston gradually tacitly regarded Shao Hang’s birthday as a free carnival.
Who would refuse such a good thing?
This may be Shao Hang’s only kind day every year. Jian Chi’s attention was initially focused on those chaotic parties, then finally fell on the remarks that Shao Hang never had a birthday. He didn’t know if the rumors were true. One can’t blame Jian Chi for doubting, after all, Shao Hang’s awkwardness to pass on the news of his upcoming birthday to him and the arrogance of the peacock spreading its feathers described in the post were completely incompatible.
After thinking about it, Jian Chi still sent a message to Shao Hang.
Jian Chi: Is next Friday your birthday?
Shao Hang: .
Jian Chi: Speak English.
Shao Hang: Who told you?
Jian Chi thought to himself that Shao Hang had forgotten the part that he forced him to guess?
Reply: Guess, if you don’t want to talk, forget it.
Shao Hang sent three messages directly.
Shao Hang: Who said I don’t want to talk?
Shao Hang: You must not have guessed. Did Zhang Yang say it or did Wen Chuan tell you?
The second was withdrawn by Shao Hang, and the third item was sent casually: Have you decided what gift to give me?
The change on the screen made Jian Chi want to laugh and ask: I thought you don’t accept gifts?
Shao Hang was keenly aware: Did you read those messy posts?
Jian Chi: So was it fake?
Shao Hang: Not really.
After a while, the second half of the sentence appeared: I want to receive your gift.
It was the first time that Jian Chi saw that he asked for a gift so confidently without refusal, but he didn’t say that he would definitely give it, so he gave Shao Hang a period.
He now understood why Shao Hang liked periods so much. When he didn’t know what to say, a small dot can block all the other party’s words.
“Jian Chi.”
Jian Chi came out of Wang Yaode’s office with a computer. Recently, they started doing advanced math exam papers, and he went in and out of the office more often. Mr. Wang was very pleased with Jian Chi’s practice of always coming to ask. After explaining just now, he gave Jian Chi a snack in the office, two lemon-flavored fruit candies.
He couldn’t tell that Teacher Wang, who always had a stern face in class, liked to eat candy in private. After Jian Chi thanked him, just as he stepped out of the office door with one foot, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
The plastic candy wrapper was instantly kneaded to the point of making a screeching sound.
“You came to ask questions too?” Jian Chi regretted it as soon as he said it – wouldn’t this have another chance to extend the conversation?
Ji Huaisi smiled, but couldn’t take the clue, “I happened to be passing by, are you going to go to the library?”
Jian Chi’s brain started to run fast, and he moved back slightly holding the computer, “No, I’m going back to the dormitory.”
“The dorms are not in that direction.”
Jian Chi could only stop awkwardly.
“Actually, I plan to go downstairs first and then go around. The distance is not much different.”
Ji Huaisi said, “I’m going in that direction too, shall we go together?”
Jian Chi can guarantee that if he just answered ‘go to the library’, Ji Huaisi’s answer would not change.
The campus in Saintston was definitely not small, but Jian Chi had doubted the authenticity of this fact more than once during this time. On the most frequent occasion, he ran into Ji Huaisi three times in one day, and the final direction was nothing more than the same as this moment-to be forced to walk together.
If Ji Huaisi appeared to be entangled, or said something inappropriate, Jian Chi could still find a reason to keep his distance. But Ji Huaisi seemed to have seen through his thoughts long ago, and his every move didn’t reveal the gloomy and terrifying day of the breakup.
It’s like going back to the way they were together before they were together.
Re-paste a layer of translucent window paper to cover the wounds of the past, saying it is a friend, not like a friend, and a lover, not like a lover. Jian Chi didn’t know if this was a normal state after a breakup.
Anyway, Zhang Yang’s expression when he saw them walking together was like seeing a ghost.
“Be careful.”
Jian Chi was thinking about this, and didn’t notice the stairs under his feet at all. He was suddenly hugged by the palm at his waist and he escaped the fate of stepping on the air. His heart couldn’t help beating faster.
Not only because of the thrilling scene just now, but also because of the intimate gesture of being half-held in his arms by Ji Huaisi at the moment. Even if he had stood firm, Ji Huaisi did not let go of his hand.
“Why are you distracted?” Ji Huaisi asked concernedly, ignoring this gesture, sounding open and frank and not ambiguous at all, on the contrary, it seemed that Jian Chi was thinking too much, and after holding it in for a long time, he could only reply ‘nothing’.
“I remembered that I still have something to do, I’m going to…” Jian Chi counted the distance from here to the dormitory, and thought of the possibility of this happening again, “I’m going to the student council to deal with something.” Sweeping over from this angle, Jian Chi saw the close student union at a glance.
Ji Huaisi seemed to be planning to say the same ‘what a coincidence’ again, and Jian Chi rushed in front of him and said, “It will take a long time, go back first, don’t wait for me.”
As a result, when Jian Chi saw that Ji Huaisi didn’t reply quickly, he left a word of ‘goodbye’ and walked quickly to the student union. His senses still paid attention to the movement behind him, but Ji Huaisi didn’t follow, which made Jian Chi finally relieved.
In the past, he would definitely rather walk with Ji Huaisi for ten minutes than run to the student union, but now that both Shen Shuting and Ji Huaisi have stepped down, this place had no special meaning to Jian Chi. He remembered that there was another exit in front of him. Although it would take five more minutes to walk back to the dormitory from there, it was better than taking the risk of Ji Huaisi still being there.
Jian Chi buried his head all the way, and occasionally several members of the student council passed by his eyes, but they were all ignored by Jian Chi. When he was about to walk out of the corner, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him. Even if Jian Chi stopped at the fastest speed, he still almost hit someone.
“So…” Before he could say his apology, Jian Chi watched the two of them stopped in front of him, or more precisely, Shen Shuting’s familiar mixed-race face.
“I didn’t bump into you, did I? You startled me.”
The spring-like question made Jian Chi withdraw his stagnant gaze and put it on the person he almost hit just now, a dark blue school uniform, tall and handsome. His appearance was no less than his voice, but what made Jian Chi more concerned was the black brooch on his chest and another badge that only the student council president could wear.
“No.” Jian Chi quickly took a few steps back, remembering the name of the newly appointed president in the handover ceremony of the auditorium that day. He seemed to be called… He couldn’t remember clearly. At that time, he was chatting with Zhang Yang, and vaguely heard the surname He. .
Jian Chi thought about the name of the new president, and his gaze followed for a while. The other party smiled back and did not express any dissatisfaction. He didn’t know which of these actions provoked Shen Shuting, but whrn Jian Chi felt that he was about to recall the person, he was caught off guard by Shen Shuting. When he turned around, he saw his green eyes full of anger.
The new president was slightly surprised by this sudden move, and his eyes lingered on where Shen Shuting was holding Jian Chi’s arm, “Do you know each other?”
“Yes,” Shen Shuting said coldly, “there is nothing for you to do here.”
Even Jian Chi, who saw the new president for the first time, felt that Shen Shuting’s tone was a bit too much. Rather than asking someone to leave, it was more like giving an order coldly. But the other party not only did not show dissatisfaction, but raised his hand and shook the folder in his hand, and said with a smile: “Then I will go first, thank you for your help today, I will contact you another day.”
After that, he looked at Jian Chi, revealing that slightly comprehensible look, followed by a smile, the natural advantage of looks will never make people hate this closeness, “You are Jian Chi, right? I hope I remembered your name correctly. If I remembered it wrong, I hope you don’t put it to heart. Right now, I haven’t even recognized the whole student council.”
Such an explanation would probably make it difficult for even the worst-tempered person to get angry again. Jian Chi was slightly startled, was he already famous to this extent?
“It’s me.”
“My name is He Tan,” He Tan stretched out his hand, “Nice to meet you.”
Jian Chi was at a loss as he prepared to shake his hand back, thinking that the current student union had begun to take the people-friendly route. This made him a little unaccustomed to, since he was someone who had suffered from Shen Shuting being difficult. Before touching He Tan’s hand, Shen Shuting pulled his arm back, gave He Tan a cold look, dropped the sentence ‘go’ and dragged Jian Chi in the opposite direction.
When he turned around, Jian Chi could still see the good-tempered president waving at him with a smile.
“Does he look good?”
Shen Shuting’s voice that shattered into ice pulled Jian Chi’s thoughts back, and his chest suddenly became congested, “Why are you here?”
“Am I preventing you from flirting with him?”
Jian Chi ‘huh? ‘ With a sound, he couldn’t keep up with Shen Shuting’s thoughts at all, but this simple sound seemed to be a sin. Shen Shuting stopped abruptly, and almost gritted his teeth and said, “Is he good-looking? Or do you see a man and want to stick close? If I was not around, were you going to throw yourself into his arms, just like you seduced Ji Huaisi before? Do you think he’ll fall in love with you?”
“…I didn’t see you coming over at all.”
“Didn’t see?” Shen Shuting repeated with a sneer, “You didn’t see, you bumped into the person accurately.”
Jian Chi’s temple throbbed a few times, and he couldn’t help sneering: “If I didn’t hit him, then should I have turned a corner and hit you?”
Who knew that Shen Shuting not only didn’t refute, but instead asked, “Can’t you?”
“…” Jian Chi felt that he was crazy to be actually reasoning with Shen Shuting, who was never reasonable.
Thinking of this, Jian Chi no longer bothered about why Shen Shuting was there. It was obvious that he and the new president knew each other and seemed to be helping each other. This was probably why He Tan was so good at facing Shen Shuting driving him away.
Jian Chi was a little tired, and it was estimated that Ji Huaisi should not be outside. He didn’t want to go around in a circle so he broke away from Shen Shuting, “I’m leaving.”
“Going back to find him?”
Shen Shuting’s rhetorical question made Jian Chi unable to hold back no matter how good his temper was, and rais his voice: “Shen Shuting, can you not think of something messy every time you see something? According to your thoughts, the two of you walked together, and you were helping him. Should I also say that there is some other relationship between the two of you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Shuting’s face changed suddenly, showing a slightly subtle expression that he didn’t know whether it was a smile or a contemplative expression.
After a while, he asked.
“Are you angry?”
“Of course I’m angry.” Jian Chi’s breath was a little unsteady.
Shen Shuting’s lips lifted a little more. This time, Jian Chi was finally sure that he was smiling.
“I have nothing to do with him, don’t think about it.”
Jian Chi was stunned for three seconds after hearing this.
He wa completely pissed off.
What did he misunderstand? What does Shen Shuting’s thoughts have to do with him? It’s better to let Shen Shuting continue to misunderstand, at least he doesn’t have to see his stifled expression, it would make people feel better.
Jian Chi sighed very seriously when he met the emerald eyes Shen Shuting.
“Shen Shuting, you are really sick.”
