Chapter 072

Yan Jin’s eyes widened slightly, “What a coincidence, Yuanyuan, you’re a student at X University?”

“I didn’t expect there to be such a coincidence in the world either.” After the initial surprise, Yu Shu’s tone was full of regret, “It’s a pity you didn’t accept the school’s offer, otherwise we could have met earlier.”

Campus romance is also an evergreen theme in Ajiang Literature City.

Yu Shu imagined himself riding a bicycle, carrying Yan Jin, touring the entire university town, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curve up.

Xiaoxiao doesn’t have very good balance. When he carries her, her hands will definitely hug his waist, hehe.

But the bicycle’s back seat is a bit bumpy, so he’ll have to tie some anti-bumping things on the back seat.

“The time we met was also very good.” Seeing Yu Shu starting to smile foolishly again, Yan Jin couldn’t help but burst the bubble, “If we had met earlier, our relationship would have been that of teacher and student.”

The smile at the corners of Yu Shu’s mouth froze.

“Teachers and students maintain distance and can’t have feelings beyond the teacher-student relationship.” Yan Jin’s tone was serious, “Such people who violate teaching ethics are not fit to be teachers!”

All of Yu Shu’s fantasies about campus romance came crashing down with Yan Jin’s words.

“Sister, can you leave me some room for imagination?” Yu Shu was a little distraught, “Can’t we be in a junior-senior relationship instead of a teacher-student one?”

“I’m five years older than you, and I often skipped grades in school. Let alone being classmates, even my juniors were several years older than me.” Yan Jin seriously concluded, “We can’t even be kindergarten junior-senior, let alone university senior-junior.”

[Damn, I’m laughing so hard.]

[One person is imagining campus romance, the other is striking down teacher-student romance. You two are thinking in completely opposite directions, yet you still managed to fall for each other.]

[People are always irresistibly attracted to those very different from themselves. It’s just a guess, not necessarily correct.]

This misunderstanding ended with Yu Shu being embarrassed and angry, reaching out to pinch Yan Jin’s face.

Two flowers bloom, each with its own branch.

After meeting Yu Shu, Song Qiong Shi immediately understood why Gu Ao Yu had said before that Yu Shu was even more outstanding than the eldest prince.

From eyebrows to eyes, from nose to lips, there wasn’t a single feature on Yu Shu’s face that wasn’t good-looking. His figure was like bamboo, yet not overly thin. And that liveliness about him, like a little deer in the forest, was so vibrant that it was impossible to take your eyes off him.

That vibrant energy was like the Phoenix Lord in Song Qiong Shi’s memory.

Since Song Qiong Shi could remember, the Phoenix Lord had been the sole recipient of favor for many years. Because the Phoenix Lord and the Imperial Noble Lord’s factions didn’t get along well, the two avoided meeting each other whenever possible. So Song Qiong Shi couldn’t clearly remember the Phoenix Lord’s face.

At that time, Song Qiong Shi was young, and her family was afraid she would lose decorum in front of the lords, so they didn’t take her to the palace banquets. By the time Song Qiong Shi was old enough, the Phoenix Lord had already passed away.

But Song Qiong Shi did see the Phoenix Lord once.

When she was little, she was flying a kite in the Imperial Garden. Just as she was having fun, the kite string broke and the kite slowly hung on a tree branch.

Song Qiong Shi was so anxious, but the maids and guards around her had all been sent away by her. She couldn’t climb trees, so she paced in circles under the tree, wiping away tears.

The Phoenix Lord, who was secretly roasting something to eat in the Imperial Garden, couldn’t stand it anymore. He neatly lifted his robe and nimbly climbed up the tree to retrieve the kite for Song Qiong Shi.

Song Qiong Shi took the kite, and before she could say thank you, the Phoenix Lord handed over a chicken leg, “Freshly roasted chicken, share and share alike, one chicken leg for you.”

The Phoenix Lord was wearing a big red round-collared robe, his hair casually tied behind his head with a hair tie, looking like a newly recruited guard.

Song Qiong Shi thought he didn’t understand palace rules and even pretended to be stupid, saying, “Fires aren’t allowed in the Imperial Garden. If the Empress finds out, big brother, you’ll be punished.”

The Phoenix Lord curved his lips, his smile so dazzling that the surrounding scenery paled in comparison, “She wouldn’t have the heart to let anyone punish me.”

Although Song Qiong Shi’s memory was a bit blurry, she still remembered that the Phoenix Lord at that time was as lively as Yu Shu.
