After seeing Brother Lin Min off, Xiao Qi walked back to her dormitory.
After spending the whole afternoon with Brother Lin Min, Xiao Qi still had elective classes tonight. She felt that she should go back and rest for a bit, otherwise she wouldn't have good energy and her efficiency in class would be low.
She had always heard the system mention moderate blackening, moderate blackening, but had never thought about what state that actually was.
But when she thought of the hurried flashes appearing in her mind - surgical accidents, watching someone die without helping, cold-heartedness, alcohol abuse... Just thinking that the currently clean and gentle Lin Min would become like that, it seemed to make her heart ache.
It was like seeing an obese, annoying, nagging, cold and greasy future version of herself.
Xiao Qi thought, the one changing wasn't Lin Min, but actually herself.
Returning to the dormitory, Xiao Qi didn't practice calligraphy, but went straight to bed to sleep.
Once her head hit the pillow, she was very tired.
Not the tiredness from accompanying someone shopping, but the scene she saw seemed to take a lot of mental effort.
She slept very soundly.
By the time she woke up, the sky was already dark.
Luckily she wasn't late. Xiao Qi rushed to take a shower and get changed before hurrying off to class with her school bag on her back.
On a whim that night, she had worn the white dress that she found troublesome when trying on during the day, with an overcoat on top.
Li Weijin had arrived early at the Spanish elective classroom.
Recently, he had really been studying diligently. Yesterday when he went home, after showing off and eating dinner, he still went to the study room to study properly until two in the morning.
He and his whole family were scared by this.
He hadn't tried this hard even during the college entrance examinations. Now that he had gotten into a private university with low standards, why was he suddenly so dedicated?
Li Qianmen thought there must be something wrong with his son's brain to not be working properly.
Gao Cuihua felt that her precious son must be so tired from studying and should eat some pig brains to nourish himself.
Li Tangsong: ...Is the power of love really that great?
Li Weijin didn't know if the power of love was great or not. He just felt the whole afternoon dragged by quite painfully for him.
Although he heard from Xiao Qi's roommate that the guy was Xiao Qi's neighbor,
he still felt a little upset.
He wondered if he had any female neighbors that he could invite over next time for Xiao Qi to see - what would Xiao Qi's reaction be?
From his memory, he had one particularly fat female neighbor. He remembered her because she was so fat. When they were in 5th grade of elementary school, she already weighed 160 pounds.
Other than this girl, who was called Niu Niu because she was so fat, he couldn't recall any other female neighbors.
Should he call Niu Niu to come to campus to see him?
Li Weijin shivered. On second thoughts, he'd better not.
He actually felt that even if Niu Niu came, Xiao Qi probably wouldn't care much. He always felt that he liked Xiao Qi more, and she wasn't totally indifferent towards him either, probably liking him too, but just liking him as an object, liking his good looks.
He could sense that, but being a good looking guy, he was still confident that he could stay good looking for a long time, becoming the person she likes the most.
The whole afternoon, although he felt somewhat gloomy, he still hugged his textbooks studying diligently, because his dorm mates were noisy playing games. So he went to study at a cafe.
Carrying the calculus, applied statistics, accounting exam tips that Xiao Qi had prepared for him, he buried himself seriously studying a huge stack of books in the cigar room .
This really shocked his group of debauched friends.
Young master, what stimulus made him like this? Did they even need to study? They would graduate anyway no matter what. What's the point of studying hard to get a degree to find a job? Making a few thousand yuan a month, even if exceptionally good, ten thousand yuan, still wasn't enough for their current spending right? The money they spent now on clothes and accessories alone easily surpassed ten thousand yuan. What was wrong with the young master that he suddenly wanted to go against his nature?
"Stop fooling around. I have to take makeup tests, don't you guys need to take them too?" Li Weijin rejected a few people who came to find him to play, and asked seriously.
They did need to take makeup tests. Other than Su Li exceptionally passing everything, the rest more or less had to take makeup tests. But they heard that when the time came, the teachers would highlight the important points and they could just roughly get by to pass.
They thought Su Li passed everything probably because of her old auntie's connections in the school, and felt sympathy for Su Li.
Seeing Li Weijin studying, Su Li felt he was too much of a hypocrite - wasn't he just trying to chase after Xiao Qi? Let's see how long he could keep it up.
She also took out a pile of books and started studying.
For a group of debauched prep class students...
How could it be that the most debauched male and female representatives suddenly started studying? Should they start studying too?
Had the cafe turned into a library?
After studying at the cafe for an afternoon, time passed swiftly for Li Weijin.
As evening approached, thinking he would see Xiao Qi at the elective class, Li Weijin carefully washed up and dressed up a bit.
He wore an asymmetrically cut white shirt. On others it might look like an insurance salesman's shirt but on him it gave off a top celebrity vibe. He washed his hair and casually let it fall around his face.
Instead of dress pants, the white shirt was paired with gray sweatpants and white sneakers. This haphazard match-up, yet on his 1.88m tall figure, still looked attractive and casual.
His physique and face were just naturally like cheating.
The heavens had blessed him with good looks. Just relying on this appearance, even without good grades or money, it seemed he wouldn't starve to death.
He had also generously sprayed on some cologne.
Today's cologne was Lanvin Eclat d’Arpege Pour Homme, with a simple fragrance - top notes of lily of the valley, middle notes of herbs, and base notes of lavender.
He arrived at the classroom early and sat in his usual spot.
After waiting for a while, he saw Xiao Qi enter.
Xiao Qi had worn athletic clothes during the day, but was unexpectedly wearing a skirt at night.
A pure white skirt, paired with a beige overcoat.
Li Weijin's serious face instantly broke into a smile. He felt Xiao Qi wore the skirt to see him and was so happy about it.
All the various knots in his heart from that entire afternoon instantly vanished when he saw Xiao Qi appear, and Li Weijin only had one thought - I forgive you, I forgive you!
Seeing the arrogant young master actually smiling for once, Xiao Qi was very surprised. Li Weijin looked even better when smiling.
When not smiling his looks were 100/100, but smiling his looks went up to 108/100. The extra 8 points were bonus points. So soft and cute, like acting spoiled.
She also smiled back at him.
Xiao Qi's smile had a healing effect, penetrating all gloom. It removed that last bit of ill feeling in Li Weijin's heart. Never mind that you don't like me as much, as long as I like you it's fine.
