Chapter 16

Xu Simian glanced at the person trying to hide herself and said coldly: "Aren't you leaving yet?"

"Let's go, let's go," Weekend teased Xu Simian without fear of death: "Brother, I just saw you seem to be smiling——"

After he finished speaking, he added as if it was not enough: "It seems that the melting of the glaciers is just around the corner."

A decent thumbs up on the weekend.

Xu Simian: "..."

"I think your design draft can be achieved by just one person." Xu Simian raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a low-pitched voice.

Upon hearing this, Weekend immediately admitted his mistake sincerely: "Brother, I was wrong."

***

Wen Ciyi returned to the company and worked overtime. When she took a break, she thought of what Xu Simian said again. She had to admit that she felt a little upset.

That sour emotion was heating up and fermenting. She hadn't felt this way for a long time.

Although she likes to hit straight balls, she doesn't like to play in that kind of situation. However, if she doesn't say it, the misunderstanding between the two people will deepen.

She had to explain in the end that she was not someone who liked to waste words with others, so she simply spoke openly.

She likes Xu Simian and really wants to pursue him.

Wen Ciyi does not just talk but does not do anything.

After thinking mindlessly for a while, Wen Ciyi grabbed her keys and planned to get off work. She thought about whether to contact Xu Simian.

My fingers unconsciously rubbed the screen for a while, but paused when I was about to send a message.

Wen Ciyi rubbed the bridge of his nose and deleted the sentence he just entered word by word.

Forget it, she'd better drive back by herself.

She hit a straight ball that made her flinch a little. To be honest, she could feel that Xu Simian didn't hate her.

But she was not 100% sure that Xu Simian had a crush on her.

For the first time, the president of the University of Wenzhou was timid in terms of relationships.

She bought some vegetables in her supermarket and planned to practice her skills on her own. But if she couldn't do it, she would wait for Xu Nian to come back from her relatives' house and ask her to bring those vegetables back to life.

Not long after Wen Ciyi arrived home, she had just put the vegetables in the refrigerator and was about to take a bath when she heard someone ringing the doorbell.

She didn't think much about it and just assumed that Xu Nian had gone home and forgot to take the key.

Wen Ciyi walked over and opened the door, muttering: "You're back..."

Before she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and met a pair of eyes as clear as the moon.

After just four hours, Wen Ciyi saw Xu Simian again.

Xu Simian glanced down at her, without explaining why she appeared here, and asked: "Who are you waiting for, senior sister?"

"Waiting for my roommate," Wen Ciyi looked up at him, her eyes sparkling: "Do you have a problem with me, junior?"

Xu Simian put his right hand on his lips and coughed dryly. He looked away and looked from Wen Ciyi's point of view. A trace of blush quietly climbed up his fair ear bones. He said, "Senior, have you eaten?"

Wen Ciyi smiled instead, and her beautiful eyes curled up with an intriguing expression: "Why, junior fellow student accidentally cooked too much rice?"

Xu Simian opened her lips and was about to speak. Wen Ciyi didn't give her a chance and said to herself: "Ah... but junior brother hurt senior sister's heart so much today... senior sister is not even in the mood to eat."

Her red lips were slightly pouted and her eyes were drooped, making a heartbroken expression.

Xu Simian: "..."

"But..." Wen Ciyi said again. She looked at Xu Simian with a smile, and there was a clear ill intention in her eyes: "If the junior brother agrees to call the senior sister, the senior sister will suddenly feel better."

Xu Simian curled up her fingertips, her dark eyes showing no emotion.

After waiting for a long time, Wen Ciyi thought that he had provoked him too much and was about to say a joke.

Xu Simian tilted her head and said two words quickly and in a low voice: "Sister."

Clear syllables passed by in a flash, and unwarranted emotions spread quietly, adding ambiguity like thin smoke.

It is thick and silky, but it is like scratching an itch. It can be seen but cannot be touched. In this quiet and narrow corridor, it quietly disperses into the boundless night.

Ruyu's earlobes are as red as those flirtatious roses. Wen Ciyi holds back her smile, but her eyes are sparkling.

Xu Simian was not looking at Wen Ciyi. He walked a few steps and pressed the elevator button, pretending to be calm and asked: "Senior, would you like to have dinner together?"

"Eat, why don't you eat?" Wen Ci walked up with a smile, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Senior, I'm in a very good mood now."

Xu Simian rubbed his temples and pretended to say quietly: "Yeah."

She was so warm that she wanted to tease him, and said in a bad way: "It's true, junior, you called me sister just now, and now you look so cold -"

"It really makes senior sister sad."

Xu Simian: "..."

He simply didn't know how to answer the words Wen Ciyi, so Xu Simian rubbed his wrist unnaturally.

Almost as soon as the elevator arrived, Xu Simian walked out stiffly, while Wen Ciyi looked cheerful.

She walked slowly and followed Xu Simian. The door was only slightly closed. Xu Simian opened the door and took a pair of dark black slippers from the entrance and placed them next to Wen Ciyi's feet: "Senior, let's wear these first."

The light in the corridor was warm and fell lazily on Xu Simian's calm brows, revealing a little tenderness.

Xu Simian's home is very tidy, even a little too tidy. The color scheme of his house is similar to hers, with black and white as the main tone. The only difference is that there are several pots of cacti on the balcony.

Wen Ciyi looked at the vibrant cactus and found that it was the same species as hers.

She said half-jokingly: "Junior, do you have a crush on me? The plants are all the same species as the ones I picked."

She didn't mean to say it, but Xu Simian suddenly raised his eyes to look at her. His eyes were very focused, and Wen Ciyi could see the small, blurry version of himself in his dark eyes.

Wen Ci suddenly felt happy again, and he overturned this idea: "It's just a coincidence, junior fellow student, don't take it to heart."

Xu Simian lowered his eyes, arranged the dishes and chopsticks, and responded.

Wen Ciyi walked to the dining table and sat down, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help teasing Xu Simian: "Junior can really afford the words "ingenuity and ingenuity."

Xu Simian coughed.

Wen Ciyi shook his head and sighed: "I don't know which girl will be so lucky in the future..."

Xu Simian: "..."

Wen Ciyi answered and asked: "Since you haven't shown up now, why not let me do it." She looked at Xu Simian with a smile, like a fox with hidden agenda: "Junior, what do you think?"

Xu Simian's hand holding the water glass trembled unconsciously. He raised his eyes and continued calmly: "Senior, I have no idea of ​​getting married yet."

He bit the word "senior sister" very hard, as if he was trying to draw a line.

But how could Wen Ciyi let him put it aside? She continued: "I haven't talked about this topic yet, junior..."

"Could it be that..." Wen's words had a profound meaning, and his gentle tone was like a little fox stretching out its claws, tickling Xu Simian's heart: "Is my junior so impatient?"

Xu Simian suddenly choked on the water. He coughed a few times and realized that he had fallen into a trap. Xu Simian simply closed his mouth and stopped talking.

And Xu Simian, who had been teasing her with his warm words all night, was in an unprecedented good mood. Even when he went to work the next day, he could be seen beaming with joy.

Wen Ciyi originally wanted to go to Jianan today, but Xu Nian went to a relative's house and didn't say when he would come back, so the plan had to be put on hold for the time being.

But Wen Ciyi didn't meet Xu Simian for several days, and Xu Simian didn't reply to his messages.

She simply opened the weekend chat box.

Wen Ciyi: Is my junior here?

Weekend: Senior sister here, what’s wrong?

Wen Ciyi licked his lower lip: Well, I haven't contacted Xu Simian for several days in a row. Is he staying at your place?

A screenshot was sent directly over the weekend. The background was in the dormitory. Xu Simian was wearing a white coat, lying on the table, with his eyes closed and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

I sent a large paragraph of text over the weekend: This is the senior sister. There was something wrong with our laboratory here, and the instructor asked us to help. At first, I thought it was just a small mistake. Who knows the quality of the project that will be contacted later?

A bit big.

Weekend: We were short of manpower, and it wasn’t until today that we called in a few more helpers, and this guy had some time to rest. He worked too hard, and he was doing all the brain-consuming work, so we could only do a little bit.

A strange, indescribable emotion flashed across Wen Ciyi's eyes, and Xu Simian like this was a bit similar to her desperate style when she was studying abroad.

Wen Ciyi thought about tomorrow's itinerary. She had to fly to Lin'an tomorrow and the day after tomorrow for something, and her ticket was at eight o'clock in the evening.

She thought again and estimated whether she would be able to see Xu Simian at home tomorrow.

Wen Ciyi simply asked about the weekend. She tapped on the screen and said, "Junior, when are you free?"

I thought for a while over the weekend and replied: It should only be dinner time in the evening, around five o'clock.

At five o'clock, Wen Ci thought about it, it should be too late.

I asked again on the weekend: Is the senior sister coming?

Wen Ciyi replied: Well, I'll make some soup and bring it to you. Are you four in bed?

Weekend was so frightened that he fell off his chair, and the noisy sound woke up Xu Simian who was lying next to him.
