“Yu Ying, what are you up to?”
In the dormitory, Hu Yuying saw the message from Li Qingxue and replied, “I’m in my dorm.”
During the latter half of her senior year of high school, apart from studying, the thing Hu Yuying did most was wait for Long Aotian to visit her—teaching him and cooking for him.
Now that they were apart, it felt like she had lost a pillar of support. She knew what she was doing, and she knew Long Aotian wouldn’t come to see her as often as before.
But waiting had become a habit.
“I’m downstairs at your dorm.”
Seeing this message from Li Qingxue, Hu Yuying glanced down from the third floor, then quickly pocketed her phone and hurried downstairs.
“Over here.” The moment Hu Yuying appeared at the dorm entrance under the glass-covered walkway, Li Qingxue spotted her.
“Qingxue, what’s up?” Hu Yuying asked.
“Feel like going to see Long Aotian?” Li Qingxue asked with a sly grin.
“Yes.”
Hu Yuying’s immediate response and the instant smile that lit up her face took Li Qingxue by surprise.
That joy and anticipation were instinctive, hidden deep in her heart.
For a moment, Li Qingxue was stunned—Hu Yuying seemed to care about Long Aotian even more than she’d imagined.
“When are we going to see him?” Hu Yuying asked seriously.
Li Qingxue chuckled at her eagerness. “This afternoon. But first, let’s grab some lunch.”
“Okay.” Hu Yuying’s cheerful demeanor made Li Qingxue laugh. “You’re really happy, huh?”
Hu Yuying never hid her feelings—because in her heart, the thought of seeing Long Aotian truly made her happy.
She’d thought she’d have to wait until after military training...

“Dude, are you done yet? You’ve been taking a dump forever.”
Huang Fei waved a hand dismissively. “Quit rushing me, I’m trying my best here.”
“Ew—did you even wash your hands?” Xu Shuai pinched his nose and laughed.
“Why don’t you take a sniff and find out!” Huang Fei shoved his hand toward Xu Shuai’s face.
“Hey, Aotian, quit messing around—let’s go eat.”
“What messing around?” Huang Fei, having just returned from the bathroom, was confused.
Li Longlong showed him a photo of Long Aotian.
“Whoa, no way, no way—dude, something’s off about you!”
Teased by his friends, Long Aotian raised an eyebrow and clenched his fist. “Ever seen a fist as big as a sandbag?”
“Oh crap, he’s gonna silence us—run!”
The group headed to the same food street as yesterday and picked a random restaurant.
“Damn, those girls must be from the music college. Their laughs are so sweet, and their voices are so melodic.”
“The girls at University T are full of energy, but the music college girls are all soft and adorable. Coming to University T was the best decision I’ve ever made!”
“Hah, that’s nothing!” Huang Fei scoffed, looking at them like they were country bumpkins.
He pulled out his phone and pulled up a spreadsheet.
“What’s this?”
“Heh, when it comes to dating, you guys are still amateurs!”
“I did my research before coming here. It’s a 1.5-kilometer bike ride to University C, about 3 kilometers to University A, and the music college is right nearby. Two kilometers east is the film academy, plus there’s the language university and the normal university. We just join a club, tag along on exchange events, and boom—easy pickings.”
“Genius. I already feel like I won’t have enough time to date all of them.”
“Same. After hearing this, I feel like I’m about to turn into a playboy.”
“Is University A really only three kilometers away?” Long Aotian asked.
“Oho, looks like our man Aotian has high standards.” University A was the top institution in Capital City—only the best students got in, which was why they teased him about aiming high.
“Told you Aotian’s secretly a player. You didn’t believe me.”
“Forget whether he’s a player or not—check out that beauty!” Xu Shuai’s exclamation instantly drew their attention to the restaurant entrance.
Their eyes widened at the sight. “Is that the legendary ice queen of the campus?”
“Drop the ‘Is that’—it’s definitely her.”
The girl had an aloof elegance, her skin pale as snow. Her delicate features were flawless, and the beauty mark near her eye didn’t detract from her charm—instead, it added an indescribable allure.
But soon, the three boys averted their gazes—because they realized the coldly beautiful girl was looking right at them.
The clear, pure glint in her eyes held a playful spark that made them too nervous to meet her gaze. They pretended to adjust their clothes or fix their hair instead.
“Don’t you guys think she looks familiar?”
“Every pretty girl looks familiar to you. That pickup line’s so outdated.”
“No, seriously—I feel like I’ve seen her before too. Aotian, what do you think?”
Long Aotian nodded. “She does seem familiar.”
Huang Fei, hearing Long Aotian agree, tried to get another look—too embarrassed to admit he’d been too nervous to properly admire her earlier.
But when he turned back, the girl was already gone from the entrance.
“Wan Ning, what were you staring at so intently?”
Hearing her friend’s question, Lin Wanning withdrew her gaze and smiled faintly. “Nothing.”
She wasn’t the type to smile often, which naturally gave off a cold impression.
But when she did smile, it was stunning—aloof yet soft, the perfect picture of a poised beauty.
“Last night was so disgusting. But at least you’re okay. The school’s tightened security, so we won’t have to deal with that kind of thing again.”
“Mhm. But that guy yesterday was seriously brave. I heard he wasn’t even from our school—shame I didn’t get to see him...”
“Wan Ning, you saw him, right? Was he handsome...?”
At this, Lin Wanning’s eyes lifted subtly toward a certain figure. For some reason, a faint blush crept across her fair cheeks, making the beauty mark near her eye even more striking.
“You guys go ahead and eat. I need to buy something—don’t wait for me.” With that, Lin Wanning stood and walked out of the restaurant.
Once outside, she glanced back, her eyes curving slightly as she quickened her pace.
On her way back, she happened to see that familiar figure entering a nearby store.
After a moment’s hesitation, Lin Wanning didn’t return to the restaurant immediately—instead, she walked toward the store.
The moment Long Aotian stepped out, he noticed the aloof girl standing nearby, occasionally glancing his way.
It wasn’t arrogance—he really felt like she was there for him...
