Su Weiyi ran back to her room. Chen Ajia was already asleep. She had been complaining of being tired all day, so it was no surprise that she fell asleep.

Su Weiyi went to the bathroom to wash her face, but the heat on her cheeks didn’t diminish at all.

She returned to the bed and sat down, finally taking a closer look at the thin chain that had appeared on her ankle.

Her ankle was very slender, and even though Sheng Yanxiao bought the smallest size, it still looked a bit loose on her. The chain was delicate, adorned with some English letters.

Su Weiyi examined it carefully, the letters formed the word: smile

Smile!

There were also a few small diamonds set onto the letters.

Su Weiyi gently brushed her fingers over it, unable to hold back a laugh. She picked up her phone and sent a message to Sheng Yanxiao: [Thank you, I really like it. Merry Christmas.]

Soon, he quickly replied: [I like it too, keep up the good work, Merry Christmas.]

Su Weiyi’s face instantly grew hot. What did he mean by "keep up the good work"?

Was he talking about kissing him?

Su Weiyi fell onto the bed, pulling the quilt over her head, suddenly feeling like she was setting a bad example for kids.

Her being in love now wasn’t considered underage love, but Sheng Yanxiao still was.

Even though she had almost forgotten he was still a high school student, and even though she didn’t feel like he was younger than her, but... but...

Su Weiyi turned over, clutching her quilt.

What to do?

She’s really growing more fond of him.

On Sunday, Su Weiyi and Chen Ajia checked out of the room, and the three of them headed back together.

All of them were in University Town and were on the same path. The car first dropped off Chen Ajia, and Sheng Yanxiao had to catch a flight. He only took Su Weiyi to the school gate. Q University and K University were adjacent, both famous universities, with many professors teaching at both schools.

There were quite a few people who knew Mr. Sheng, and it wouldn’t be good if they got caught.

Su Weiyi watched the taxi drive away, then turned around and walked in. She hadn’t taken a few steps when someone suddenly rushed over and hooked her neck: "Xiao Yi, was that your boyfriend?"

Su Man had somehow snuck up from behind, and from what she said, she had obviously seen Sheng Yanxiao.

Su Weiyi couldn’t help but blush: "Shh, keep your voice down."

Su Man had a gossipy look: "Oh my, your boyfriend is so handsome! Even though I only saw his side profile, his looks are off the charts." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Su Weiyi: "..."

From the school gate to the dorm, Su Man was gossiping all the way. When they finally reached the dormitory building, Su Weiyi unexpectedly saw someone—Lu Zhang.

December in B City had already seen the temperature drop, but this winter was clearly a mild one, not too cold.

Lu Zhang was wearing a white turtleneck sweater under a down jacket, standing next to a tree outside the girls’ dormitory, seemingly waiting for someone.

He also saw Su Weiyi and was slightly taken aback.

Before Su Weiyi could react, Su Man had already spoken: "Wow, is today my lucky day? First, I see a handsome guy, and now, a genius."

"A genius?"

Su Weiyi was puzzled, and Su Man immediately explained: "See that person under the tree over there? He’s the top genius in the physics department of our school. It’s said that he became famous in a single battle just two months after enrolling by outsmarting a junior, super impressive."

A physics genius?

Su Weiyi was a bit surprised, but come to think of it, it made sense. Lu Zhang’s prowess in physics had always been the pride of the S University Affiliated Middle School.
