But what Tang Xiaorui didn't know was that not far away, behind a large column, Fang Ye was secretly hiding there and watching Tang Xiaorui.

He could only look at her like this, distantly and secretly.

Fang Ye actually wanted to tell Tang Xiaorui that if one day I achieve something and become a person worthy of you, I will definitely marry you. But Fang Ye did not dare to promise Tang Xiaorui.

Because no one can say for sure about this kind of thing.

Maybe he would be just a small special assistant all his life, and he didn't want Tang Xiaorui to wait in vain, or... even if he said it, Tang Xiaorui might not wait for him.

"Momo, it's getting late, let's go in quickly."

Qiao Ximo raised his eyes and looked at Chi Yeche: "Then Xiaorui and I will leave first."

"Wait." Chi Yeche pulled Qiao Ximo on his body.

Qiao Ximo looked back at him and saw Chi Yeche taking something out of his pocket and stuffing it into her hand. "A gift."

Qiao Ximo looked at the necklace in her hand. When she saw this necklace, Qiao Ximo's eyes flickered slightly. This necklace... was the necklace that she had obviously taken a fancy to when she was choosing a gift for Tang Xiaorui that day but said it was not very good.

Qiao Ximo did not expect that Chi Yeche would see that she liked this necklace, nor did she expect that he would buy it and give it to her.

Feeling inexplicably sore in his heart, Qiao Ximo whispered "Thank you" to Chi Yeche.

"It's getting late, come in quickly."

"Yeah." Qiao Ximo responded softly. She originally thought she would be happy when she left Chi Yeche, but for some reason, now she felt a little stuffy in her heart and a little sore in her nose.

Pushing the suitcase and walking forward with Tang Xiaorui, Qiao Ximo wanted to turn back but didn't dare.

She was afraid that when she looked back, Chi Yeche was not still standing looking at her from a distance, but had already walked away.

Fang Ye looked at Tang Xiaorui's retreating back. He wanted to take another look, even just for a second, but Fang Ye knew that he had to go back before Chi Yeche got back in the car.

After reluctantly taking a deep look at Tang Xiaorui's back, Fang Ye turned and left.

Even though Qiao Ximo's back had disappeared from sight, Chi Yeche was still staring in the direction where Qiao Ximo left.

When he came back to his senses, Chi Yeche realized that Tang Yunchen was still standing beside him.

The two of them seemed awkward for no reason.

Tang Yunchen smiled and said first: "I originally thought you would go to the United States with Momo."

"I have an important meeting to go to France tomorrow." Chi Yeche replied.

Although the conversation was still the same as before, and there seemed to be no difference, Tang Yunchen could feel that Chi Yeche's attitude towards him was alienated.

Even though he felt bitter in his heart, Tang Yunchen had a smile on his face: "So that's it. Since they have already boarded the plane, let's go."

Chi Yeche responded and the two of them left the airport without speaking to each other and got into their own cars and left.

After getting on the plane and putting down her luggage, Qiao Ximo gently let go of her hand and looked at the necklace that she had been holding tightly in her hand.

Realizing that Qiao Ximo was looking at her hands absentmindedly, Tang Xiaorui couldn't help but stretched her neck and rested her chin on Qiao Ximo's shoulder. "Did Chi Yeche give this to you just now?"

Qiao Ximo nodded slightly.

"Wow! A parting gift, so romantic!" When she thought about her grandpa not giving her any gifts when she left, he also told her not to spend money abroad and go out to work to experience life. It's okay if she spends money and doesn't work.

, then you must find a boyfriend!

Tang Xiaorui was speechless for her grandfather. Why was her grandfather more anxious than her?

But... can she find a boyfriend during college? Although she has not liked Fang Ye for a long time, the feeling of liking someone for the first time is too strong. Even though she has been rejected by Fang Ye, Tang Xiaorui doesn't want to admit it but

She didn't want to deceive herself, she did... still like Fang Ye.

It took more than ten hours to fly to the United States, and Tang Xiaorui fell asleep not long after getting on the plane.

After Tang Xiaorui fell asleep, Qiao Ximo took out the necklace and stared deeply at it.

Since she met Chi Yeche, Chi Yeche has given her many gifts, almost all of which are more expensive than this necklace, but this is her favorite gift.

It was already past midnight when they arrived in the United States. Tang Yunchen sent a special person to pick up and drop off the two of them. Although it was already night here when they arrived at the hotel, Qiao Ximo couldn't fall asleep while lying on the soft bed of the five-star hotel because of the jet lag.

.

However, Tang Xiaorui fell asleep with his head next to the pillow. When he was at home during the holidays, Tang Xiaorui would typically not wake up until noon, but he would not sleep until early in the morning. Grandpa always joked that you don’t need to be jet-lagged when you go to the United States.

Qiao Ximo reached for the phone on the bedside table, opened it, opened the phone book, and clicked on Chi Yeche's number. However, Qiao Ximo didn't know whether he should call Chi Yeche.

After arriving in the United States, Tang Xiaorui called Tang Yunchen. Maybe Tang Yunchen would tell Chi Yeche?

He knew he was probably arriving soon and would probably call her too.

After thinking about it, Qiao Ximo still didn't call Chi Yeche.

Looking at the name c noted for Chi Yeche in the address book, Qiao Ximo clicked on the editor, deleted the c, and added Chi Yeche's name.

Putting the phone aside, Qiao Ximo closed her eyes and forced herself to fall asleep.

After getting up the next day, Tang Xiaorui excitedly took Qiao Ximo with her to visit the school.

Although this is the school you will attend for four years in the future, you may get tired of it sooner or later, but when you first come here, of course the first thing you have to go to is the school.

Because it was evening and already very late when they arrived, and the lights on the road were not so dim, they didn't see much of the scenery outside. On the way to school in the car, Tang Xiaorui and Qiao Ximo looked at the scenery outside the window excitedly.

I got off the car and faced the school I had dreamed of for many years. Even though I had seen pictures of Columbia University countless times on postcards and on the Internet, having these things appear in front of my eyes was completely different from looking at the pictures!

Looking at these stylish buildings that were completely different from domestic universities, Qiao Ximo and Tang Xiaorui felt like they were wandering in a postcard.

While strolling comfortably in Columbia University, Tang Xiaorui and Qiao Ximo spotted an Asian-faced girl in front of them.

"Is that girl Chinese?" Tang Xiaorui couldn't help but think curiously.

"I don't know, but he doesn't look Korean."

"Then let's go ask." Tang Xiaorui said, pulling Qiao Ximo to the girl.

"Hello, are you Chinese?" Tang Xiaorui asked in fluent English.

Uh... Of course, such simple English is at the elementary school level.
