"Student Jiang, I saw you at Cang Ming’s concert yesterday."
Xue Junyi was the first to bring up the topic, which Jiang Moxi hadn’t expected.
However, Jiang Moxi still followed up on his topic: "Yes, I indeed saw you there, and I also saw you with a girl, who wasn’t Ling Hua."
Jiang Moxi’s gaze was cool and indifferent as she sized up Xue Junyi.
In fact, Xue Junyi could be considered a campus heartthrob at the Technical College, with a refined appearance and the ability to crack jokes that delighted girls.
Mu Wanting had a liking for Xue Junyi before, which often led to her ntioning him to Jiang Moxi. That was how Jiang Moxi ca to know of his existence.
Perhaps because Mu Wanting had praised Xue Junyi so much in front of Jiang Moxi, Jiang Moxi was quite optimistic about the relationship when she learned from Ling Ye that Ling Hua’s boyfriend was Xue Junyi.
But after seeing Xue Junyi bring another girl to the concert yesterday, not bringing Ling Hua who had been longing to attend the concert, Jiang Moxi developed an inexplicable hostility towards him.
But Xue Junyi apparently had noticed this hostility and hurriedly said, "Student Jiang must have misunderstood . The girl I took to the concert yesterday was my cousin. She had just broken up with her boyfriend a couple of days ago, was feeling very down, so she asked to go with her."
Jiang Moxi looked coldly at Xue Junyi, with an equally cold tone: "Is that so? I didn’t know cousins could wrap their arms around each other’s waist."
A flash of surprise crossed Xue Junyi’s eyes, but he quickly recovered and maintained a bright smile.
"I saw soone passing by at the ti and was worried my cousin would bump into them, so I protected her for a mont. By the way, I’ve already talked over this matter with Huahua. If you don’t believe , you can ask her."
Right at that mont, Ling Hua brought over Xue Junyi’s jacket and heard this conversation, asking curiously, "Ask what?"
Jiang Moxi said, "About the incident at Cang Ming’s concert yesterday, where he had his arm around another woman’s waist! He says he has already told you about it."
Xue Junyi still maintained his smile.
But whether it was Jiang Moxi’s imagination or not, she felt that Xue Junyi’s smile seed to fade a lot in that instant.
Ling Hua handed the jacket to Xue Junyi and ca back to Jiang Moxi’s side, "Sister Moxi, Junyi has already told about it, saying it was his cousin who had a sudden breakup and called him out to the concert last minute. He saw his cousin was out of sorts and was worried she might bump into soone, so he just protected her for a mont; it wasn’t him intentionally holding her waist."
Jiang Moxi nodded her head.
Since Xue Junyi had already explained the situation to Ling Hua, and Ling Hua had accepted his explanation, then there was nothing for Jiang Moxi, an outsider, to concern herself with.
Afterward, Xue Junyi excused himself saying he needed to go to work and left quickly.
Ling Hua waved goodbye to Xue Junyi with a smile, her little face blushing and eyes filled with tenderness, looking very much like a young bride sending off her husband to work.
Only after Xue Junyi’s figure had completely disappeared from their sight did Ling Hua ask Jiang Moxi.
"Sister Moxi, are you angry?"
"What would I be angry about?" Jiang Moxi looked at Ling Hua.
"I’ve gotten a boyfriend during the most crucial ti for the college entrance exam," Ling Hua said, eyes downcast, bearing a hint of self-reproach.
"You are already eighteen, you’re free to do anything. But you are also aware of how important the college entrance exam is for you, so I hope you will prioritize studying before the exam. As for Xue Junyi... you might want to observe him more closely."
Jiang Moxi had previously thought that Ling Ye, with his lack of experience in love, was worrying over nothing, but now she really felt that Ling Ye might have been right.
Not only was the interaction between Xue Junyi and that girl at the concert not like that of cousins, even Xue Junyi’s behavior just now seed off to Jiang Moxi.
That’s why she especially warned Ling Hua.
Upon hearing this, Ling Hua imdiately laughed: "I know, I know, I will definitely focus on studying for this period and start dating after the exams are over."
Then she pestered Jiang Moxi, "But Sister Moxi, you must rember not to ntion that this house belongs to our family to Junyi. I’m worried it might burden him psychologically."
"Is his family very poor?" Jiang Moxi asked.
"I’m not sure if his family is poor, but I t him at the milk tea shop where he works..."
Originally, Ling Hua got to know Xue Junyi when she went to buy milk tea, and they even exchanged WeChat contacts.
Then they often chatted on WeChat, t up frequently, and naturally ca together.
"Junyi said he will take good care of and even marry . But he doesn’t have much money right now, so he can only work hard to give a good life in the future."
When Ling Hua ntioned marriage, her eyes lit up.
She was born shortly before her parents divorced, so she never really felt the so-called warmth of a family.
That’s why she yearned to start her own small family, to fill so voids in her heart.
"Junyi is so good to , I don’t want to put too much pressure on him. You know, our family’s situation is pretty special; it’s possible that Junyi could work his whole life and still not achieve what we have."
Jiang Moxi knew that Ling Hua was intent on being with Xue Junyi, so she further asked, "When do you plan to let him know that your family is well-off?"
"After a while, at least until after my exams," said Ling Hua.
Jiang Moxi agreed with this point.
After Ling Hua’s exams, she would have more ti to think about her future with Xue Junyi.
Then the two of them began today’s tutoring session.
Now that Ling Hua’s grades were among the top, Jiang Moxi only needed to guide her through so types of questions.
But just as Jiang Moxi was about to leave the Ling Family ho after the study session, Ling Hua suddenly exclaid, "Sister Moxi, were you the lucky fan at the concert yesterday?"
Jiang Moxi was packing her bag to leave when she heard Ling Hua’s exclamation. Turning back, she saw Ling Hua staring at her phone with an excited and incredulous expression.
"Um, I was sohow picked yesterday," Jiang Moxi vaguely brushed over the topic, not wanting to let Ling Hua know that she knew Cang Ming.
"My god, you are so lucky. And that mont when Cang Ming presented you with flowers, the combination of your good looks was explosive, no wonder it blew up on the trending searches."
Ling Hua was howling with excitent, but it made Jiang Moxi furrow her brows.
The last thing she wanted was for people to know about any connection between her and Cang Ming.
And yet it ended up on the trending searches...
But Ling Hua didn’t understand Jiang Moxi’s troubles and kept asking about Cang Ming.
"What did you and Cang Ming talk about when you had dinner? How is he in private, is he gentle? I heard he’s one eighty-six tall, is it true..."
However, towards the end, Ling Hua couldn’t help feeling a bit down, "If only I had been at the concert yesterday, then I could have seen Cang Ming with my own eyes."
Seeing her reaction, Jiang Moxi knew that Ling Hua still regretted not being able to go to the concert, so she comforted her.
"You’ll get a chance to see him in person."
Ling Hua knew Jiang Moxi was just comforting her and didn’t take her words to heart.
Until one day, Jiang Moxi really did bring Cang Ming to her house, and that’s when Ling Hua realized that Jiang Moxi’s words were not just for comfort...
*
Jiang Moxi thought the incident with Cang Ming would co to an end.
But what she hadn’t anticipated was that as soon as she returned to Tianqin Bay, Fu Youhan was sitting on the living room couch, looking no different than usual, except for a slight coolness at the corner of his eyes.
"So you left alone so long yesterday because you found a ’dog’ outside?"
Jiang Moxi: "..."
