Chu Yang: ...She had previously thought that girl was not bad when she bowed and apologized to everyone in the library. She was quite polite. I didn't expect...
It was the first time she had seen someone brazenly try to snatch another girl's boyfriend right in front of her. And it happened to her too. Chu Yang felt it was quite fresh. She was even wondering if her original self had acted this way in front of the main couple too. Just the thought made her shiver.
"No, I actually quite mind. I'm the possessive type. I don't like my boyfriend looking at other girls. A good girl like you would surely understand me." Chu Yang sized her up and said, "Didn't you injure your stomach earlier? Is your body okay now? Did it leave any scars? Ah! I'm sorry, that's not what I meant to say. I just wanted to ask about you out of concern. You don't mind, do you?"
"You!" Zhang Qiangyu was so angry she couldn't get the words out.
"Oh right. Someone reminded you earlier to beware of your ex-boyfriend, yet you still got stabbed. Sister, your IQ is lacking." Chu Yang twisted the knife.
Zhang Qiangyu remembered that someone did indeed warn her earlier and she had taken precautions, yet she had never expected her ex-boyfriend to dare stab her in broad daylight.
"Sister, we need to study now so please leave us be. You wouldn't want to be a light bulb now would you? How unexpected, I didn't take you as that kind of person." Chu Yang acted shocked.
People around had started looking over.
Zhang Qiangyu: ...
In the end, Zhang Qiangyu still left.
Chi Yan happily looked at Chu Yang. "I definitely won't so much as glance at other girls in the future."
Chu Yang waved her hand dismissively. "I only said all that to get her to leave."
Chi Yan grasped her hand. "It's fine, I took it seriously. I liked what you just said."
Chu Yang: "I didn't expect you were into the domineering girlfriend type."
Chi Yan: "No, I like your type."
Why does it sound so cheesy? Chu Yang realized goosebumps were popping up over her skin. She straightened his head to face forward. "Alright alright, I get it. Let's study now."
Perhaps after getting a taste of Chu Yang's combat abilities, Zhang Qiangyu did not come over again afterwards. Chi Yan heaved a sigh of relief.
One day, Chi Yan didn't have class that afternoon because his teacher was absent. He didn't want to study alone at the library or go play ball with a bunch of guys. He thought he had never accompanied his girlfriend to her classes before, which seemed to be what people in relationships did. So that afternoon, he decided he'd accompany his Chu Yang to her classes.
No sooner said than done. He had saved Chu Yang's schedule in his phone. She had two ancient Chinese language classes that afternoon.
He texted Chu Yang after eating. After riding over to University A on his little lamb bicycle, Wei Feng happened to catch sight of his departing back from the balcony. He sighed, "Why does Brother Yan stick to his girlfriend so much? Running over whenever he has time."
Zheng Qing glanced at him. "Serves you right for being single."
Wei Feng: ...Stabbed in the heart again.
Chu Yang was packing up when there was a knock on the window. "Look who it is, Little Crow came to visit. Haven't seen you in awhile." Zhou Caicai hurried to open the window.
The moment the window opened, the crow flew onto Chu Yang's desk, cawing twice.
"I know, I know." Chu Yang took out a small bun and crumbled it into crumbs to feed it. Zhou Caicai came over and poured it a cup of water, stroking it twice.
Zhou Caicai only stroked it twice before reluctantly pulling herself away. "Oh, I have class to go to now so I can't keep you company. Eat well and drink well! Big sister is going now."
Zhou Caicai had an elective class that was far from the dorm so she had to leave early. Jin Yang and Qian Xin hadn't returned at noon.
After bidding Chu Yang farewell, Zhou Caicai left the dorm room.
Currently, only Chu Yang was left in the room when Chi Yan texted that he'd come visit her. He said that he'd even accompany her to class.
About half an hour later, Chi Yan arrived. Chu Yang picked up her schoolbag, preparing to head out, when the crow suddenly followed behind with a "Caw caw!". It meant that it wanted to tag along.
Chu Yang tidied away the food and water she had left out for the crow. Then she directly picked it up and put it in her bag without fully zipping it up. "No making any noise, got it?"
The crow tilted its head and cawed twice, agreeing.
When Chu Yang went downstairs, Chi Yan wanted to take her bag but she refused. "I'll carry it. The crow's inside."
Chi Yan: ???
Chu Yang showed him. "It insisted on following me so I have no choice but to bring it along to class."
Chi Yan's eyes widened. "It won't start squawking, will it?"
Chu Yang made a vicious threat. "If it dares to make a racket during class, I'll pluck all its feathers and toss it in hot oil to fry for a few minutes. The neighbor's kid will drool from hunger."
The crow's feathers stood on end as it cawed twice. I won't make a peep!
Chu Yang: "Alright, let's go to class."
Then Chi Yan gave Chu Yang a ride to the Chinese language and literature department.
The two arrived rather early. When they entered the classroom there weren't many people yet. Considering Chi Yan's overly striking looks that would draw too much attention and also because the crow was with them, Chu Yang sat with Chi Yan in the back corner row by the window.
She took out the crow and put it on the desk shelf, softly warning, "Be good and stay put." Then she placed her textbook on the desk.
Chi Yan sitting beside also took out his textbook.
Soon after, Jin Yang arrived. She immediately spotted Chi Yan next to Chu Yang. She would usually sit together with Chu Yang but she looked for another random spot today before sending Chu Yang a message. "The campus hottie Chi Yan actually came to accompany you to class today! I won't intrude."
Chu Yang saw it but didn't know how to reply either. She also hadn't expected Chi Yan to show up.
The other classmates entered one after another and sat down. It wasn't long before the teacher came in. "Alright everyone, let's start on Lesson 10 today. Open your books..."
"Let me pick someone to translate this passage." The teacher adjusted his glasses before pointing at Chi Yan. "Young man over there, please stand up and answer."
Chi Yan: ?
Chu Yang: ???
Chu Yang immediately placed her textbook in front of Chi Yan, softly prompting: "This part."
Chi Yan: ?
The teacher looked over. "Don't coach him, girl sitting next to him."
Many people instantly whipped their heads around. There were already few boys among the Chinese majors, let alone such a handsome one. Whispers broke out amongst them.
"He's so hot! Who's he? In our class?"
"Doesn't seem like it."
Chu Yang promptly raised her hand. "Excuse me teacher, he came to accompany me to class. He's not in our major."
Only then did everyone understand this hottie was Chu Yang's boyfriend.
The teacher nodded. "Since he's Chu Yang's friend, his studies should be decent too. Go on and answer it."
Chu Yang looked encouragingly at Chi Yan: You can do it!
Chi Yan picked up the book to take a look. "Taishu built walls and towers, ordering people to gather weapons like bows and arrows... Later, Duke Duan escaped..." I'm done with my translation.
The teacher nodded. "Very good. Let's continue, class."
Chu Yang silently mouthed to him: You were awesome!
Chi Yan smiled and wrote on his notebook: Looks like I'll have to read up with you later so I don't get picked on again.
