Xu Ru’an: "Don’t you also like them? Who’s your favorite?"
Sang Yu smiled and said: "I like all of them."
Xu Ru’an: "No one in particular?"
Sang Yu shook her head: "Not yet."
Xu Ru’an: "Alright."
Sang Yu felt a bit uneasy, as if her little secret was slipping away.
Thankfully, Xu Ru’an hadn’t connected Little Fish to Sang Yu.
Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing; if the secret was found out, it would be like running naked in public.
Fortunately, it was about ti for everyone to leave.
Everyone here was heading back to school, except for Sang Yu, who was going ho.
"Sang Yu, let give you a ride," Xu Ru’an said.
Sang Yu waved her hand: "No need, I can go back myself, it’s not far."
At that mont, a man who hadn’t had the chance to speak said: "Ru’an, how about I take Mr. Sang ho instead?"
Sang Yu: "No need, you all go back to school, I can manage myself."
Then she waved to Xu Ru’an: "Ru’an, I’ll head ho now, goodbye."
Without waiting for a response, Sang Yu quickly left.
ng Wencheng watched Sang Yu’s disappearing back with a bit of disappointnt.
Xu Ru’an noticed ng Wencheng’s mood, and looked at him aningfully: "Minister, don’t tell you like Sang Yu?"
ng Wencheng wasn’t the kind to be easily embarrassed, and said directly: "I do feel so fondness."
Xu Ru’an laughed: "I knew it, at the table you kept looking at Sang Yu, didn’t expect you to fall for her so quickly."
ng Wencheng smiled: "It’s just a pity I didn’t get to know her better."
Xu Ru’an teased: "That’s simple. Next ti I’ll call Sang Yu out to join us. I’ve already got her ho phone number."
ng Wencheng, the minister of their departnt, had a handso face and a good character, and Xu Ru’an was quite willing to play matchmaker.
Hearing this, ng Wencheng’s eyes flashed with joy: "Thanks a lot."
"Minister, you’re too polite," Xu Ru’an said, patting ng Wencheng’s shoulder.
"Wencheng?" Suddenly soone called out to ng Wencheng.
"Lu Yuan?" ng Wencheng turned to see Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was wearing a Zhongshan suit, looking very fresh and handso.
"Oh, you’re here too. I was wondering when Wencheng had such a wild admirer," Lu Yuan teased Xu Ru’an.
Xu Ru’an rolled her eyes at Lu Yuan: "You’ve got a problem with your eyes."
Lu Yuan retorted: "If anyone has eye problems, it’s you, Xu Ru’an. I’m not sure who threw a bucket of water on the first day of school."
Xu Ru’an said defensively: "You clearly weren’t watching where you were going."
Lu Yuan chuckled: "I think you should join the debate society instead of the drama club; your ability to turn black into white is impressive."
Xu Ru’an: "Lu Yuan, say that again."
ng Wencheng, feeling overwheld, quickly stopped the two.
"Alright, alright, we’re in public, keep it down. You two have been bickering for years, isn’t that enough?"
Xu Ru’an and Lu Yuan said in unison: "Not enough!"
ng Wencheng joked: "You two are really a pair of feuding lovers, might as well get together, who can be as in sync as you?"
Xu Ru’an and Lu Yuan again said in unison: "Impossible."
Xu Ru’an rolled her eyes at Lu Yuan with disdain: "Who’s in sync with him."
Lu Yuan snorted: "Even if I never find a partner in this life, I’d never be with soone like this."
ng Wencheng shook his head: "Alright, alright, we should head back now."
The priority was to separate the two before they ended up fighting.
Xu Ru’an huffed at Lu Yuan twice before turning to leave.
Lu Yuan also made a sound of disapproval.
After ng Wencheng said goodbye to Lu Yuan, he got on the bus with Xu Ru’an and the others to go back to school.
Lu Yuan watched the departing bus, pouting in annoyance.
...
anwhile, Sang Yu had just gotten off the bus and was slowly walking ho.
As she walked, she suddenly bumped into a man head-on.
"Sorry," Sang Yu apologized instinctively.
The man opposite looked fierce, his brows full of impatience.
But upon seeing Sang Yu’s face, the impatience turned into amusent.
Sang Yu looked up and t the man’s gaze, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Sorry," she apologized again and quickly hurried past the man.
The man didn’t stop Sang Yu, but watched her leave, a grin slowly forming at the corners of his mouth.
Sang Yu hurried ho, just as she was about to open the door, it swung open from the inside.
Sang Yu hadn’t had a chance to speak.
She was suddenly pulled into a wide and warm embrace.
She could hear the thumping of a heartbeat near her ears.
"Jiang Jingming?" Sang Yu whispered, sensing sothing was unusual.
Jiang Jingming hadn’t seen Sang Yu at ho after returning from the police station today.
Knowing it was her day to visit the newspaper office, he waited at ho for a while.
It was already six o’clock, and still, Sang Yu hadn’t appeared.
He thought of the case he had just taken on today, and his heart tightened with anxiety.
Just as he was about to go out to look for Sang Yu, he opened the door to find her standing there.
At that mont, unable to control himself, he hugged her tightly, finally calming his anxious heart.
"Oh, not a good ti, I’ll co back later."
Upon hearing the voice, Sang Yu quickly pushed Jiang Jingming away, her cheeks turning an unnatural shade of red.
She hurriedly called out to Aunt Wang: "Aunt Wang."
Aunt Wang looked teasingly at Jiang Jingming and Sang Yu: "Young couples have such good feelings. But so things are better done behind closed doors."
Sang Yu’s face turned red instantly; being caught like this was mortifying.
Jiang Jingming pulled Sang Yu back a step, shielding her entirely, and asked: "Aunt Wang, do you need sothing?"
Seeing Jiang Jingming’s actions, Aunt Wang, having been around, knew well.
She stopped teasing Sang Yu: "Didn’t Xiao Yu say she wanted to grow so vegetables? I purchased so vegetable seeds today and brought so for her."
Jiang Jingming rembered she did ntion wanting to plant so greens in the backyard.
"Thank you, Aunt Wang."
Aunt Wang replied casually: "No need to thank , Xiao Yu often gives delicious food."
"I won’t disturb you both any longer, but it’s better to be affectionate behind closed doors." Laughing, Aunt Wang left.
Jiang Jingming closed the door helplessly, turning back to look at Sang Yu.
Sang Yu glared at Jiang Jingming and ran off.
But to Jiang Jingming, that glare was far from intimidating; it even had a hint of playful affection.
There was amusent in the corner of Jiang Jingming’s eyes.
