Chapter 053 Extra Update
Yu Shu smiled, revealing a pair of small dimples at the corners of his mouth. “What a coincidence, Xiao Xiao. I can’t believe I ran into you here.”
“Our home is still some distance from the academy. No matter how much of a coincidence, it’s impossible for us to meet here,” Yan Jin couldn’t help but chuckle. “Unless you came here specifically for me.”
The corners of Yu Shu’s lips curved up slightly. “If I said I did come here for you, what would you like to say to me, Xiao Xiao?”
“Well, if you came, you came.” Yan Jin’s tone softened unconsciously. “It’s not like I could send you back home anyway.”
“Even if you wanted to send me back, it’s too late now.” Yu Shu raised an eyebrow. “I just finished the enrollment procedures. Unless the headmaster allows it, no one has the authority to order me to withdraw from the academy.”
“They accept males here too?” Yan Jin glanced at the green clothes on Yu Shu that were the same as hers and suddenly realized, “So this is the male student uniform. I thought you had specifically found the same outfit as mine.”
The female student uniform of Qingsong Academy had a simple style, with cloud patterns embroidered only on the cuffs and hem. Apart from that, the plain dark green dress without any other embroidery was too plain and wouldn’t stand out even if thrown into a crowd. If one tried, finding the same outfit wouldn’t be difficult.
That’s why Yan Jin had this guess.
“Why would I find the same outfit as you, to make a coup…” Before Yu Shu could finish his sentence, he realized the implication of Yan Jin’s words. His eyes widened in disbelief as he pointed at himself, “You thought I would specifically find a matching outfit to form a couple’s look?”
“Doesn’t this seem like something you would do?” Yan Jin retorted.
“How could this possibly…” As Yu Shu spoke, his voice grew weaker and weaker.
Alright… This indeed seemed like something he would do. Ahem.
Seeing that Yu Shu wasn’t carrying a tray, Yan Jin figured he probably hadn’t eaten. As she led him to the serving window, she teased, “See, I know you so well.”
Yu Shu smiled reservedly, but thinking of the familiarity in Yan Jin’s words towards him, and seeing how she was concerned about him not eating, he couldn’t help but reveal his joy through his eyes. “Xiao Xiao, you’re so good to me.”
“This is considered being good to you?” Yan Jin was slightly surprised. “I didn’t do anything. I just brought you to get food. You completed the enrollment procedures all by yourself. I didn’t even help.”
“This afternoon, you accompanied me to complete the enrollment procedures. We were busy for half a day. It must have taken you quite some time alone.” Yan Jin paused and handed a bowl of radish and pork rib soup she had just gotten to Yu Shu. “You must be tired. Drink some soup and rest.”
Looking at the steaming pork rib soup in front of him, Yu Shu couldn’t help but want to smile even more. “Xiao Xiao, you really are…”
Although it was a caring gesture, when spoken by Yan Jin, it sounded a bit awkward, as if it was the first time she had been so considerate to someone.
Although he had Xu Junde’s help, this trip wasn’t too troublesome for Yu Shu. But thinking that he had also spent some time, he accepted Yan Jin’s concern without any guilt.
“You have no idea how exhausted I am from this trip.” Yu Shu’s tone was a bit soft, and to Yan Jin’s ears, it sounded like Little Taro was acting spoiled with her.
“I was busy running around and finally managed to complete the procedures.”
Yu Shu spoke in a righteous manner, making Yan Jin feel a bit guilty.
Although Taro most likely came here for her, and it was normal for him to be busy, thinking about how Yu Shu helped her clean up in the afternoon, Yan Jin felt a bit short of breath. “Have you settled into your dormitory? If not, I can go with you later to take a look and see if there’s anything I can help with.”
“I haven’t been there yet. After we finish eating, I’ll take you there to familiarize yourself with the way.” Yu Shu was still a bit shrewd. “There’s no need for you to help. Xiao Xiao, you’re a bit clumsy and don’t even know how to put on a bedsheet. Just go and get familiar with the place.”
Letting Xiao Xiao take a look around the male dormitory and letting others know that she had a close relationship with him was enough. He couldn’t let Xiao Xiao help, otherwise what if others took a liking to her?
The system hearing Yu Shu’s thoughts: …
[Host, you don’t need to worry so much.]Even if there were those who fell in love with Yan Jin at first sight, as time passed, very few could handle her personality.
Xiao Xiao is smart, has a gentle personality, and speaks in an interesting way. She’s so outstanding, of course I have to worry.
[Who is Yu Shu talking about? I don’t recognize a single word.] [I admit she’s smart, but gentle personality and speaks in an interesting way, is this referring to Yan Jin??? My god, has Yu Shu forgotten how he used to complain that Yan Jin was wooden?]
