Accidentally provoking the spring tide

Chapter 40. I just happened to see it and bought it (First Update)
Hou Taojiu stared in shock, his mouth agape, and murmured, "So this photo is..."

Ji Ziqian replied expressionlessly, "Really."

"..."

Hou Taojiu turned his head, stared at the computer screen for a long time, and said quietly, "Tell me, should I choose to be scolded or gossip?"

Ji Ziqian subconsciously raised his hand, but stopped just before touching the other person's shoulder. His knuckles tightened, his eyes lowered, and he withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, saying in a calm voice, "If you miss this chance to be scolded, you'll get another one next time."

"But the latter, if you miss it, you may never have it again."

Hou Taojiu's eyes lit up instantly, and he happily put his arm around Ji Ziqian's shoulder: "Great job, brother! You've woken me up from my dream!"

Ji Ziqian looked at his hand hanging in front of his chest, his lips slightly pursed, his eyes dark.

Take your hand away.

His tone was low, as if he was suppressing something.

Hou Taojiu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately realized what he had done and withdrew his hand, scratching his head and grinning sheepishly: "Sorry, I was so happy that I forgot you're a germaphobe. Let me get you a wet wipe to clean it!"

As he spoke, he rummaged through his bag for wet wipes, muttering to himself, "Where did they go? I remember they were right here..."

"No need to look anymore." Ji Ziqian capped his pen and lowered his head to organize his paper. "Let's go, or we'll miss the show."

Hou Tao slapped his forehead, quickly saved the computer code, shut down the computer, and put it in his bag.

After taking two steps outside, he turned around and found that the person behind him had not followed.

"Old Ji, why are you still sitting there?"

"Hurry up! We need to find out who this amazing person is who could subdue that eternal iceberg, Lu Shen!"

Under the repeated urging of the young man, Ji Ziqian finally put the paper he had already prepared into his bag, suppressed the slight upturn of his lips, and stood up.

"coming."

The two went to ask their general education teacher for leave.

The elderly professor, with his graying hair, pushed up his glasses and slowly said while holding his thermos, "Looks like the flu is pretty bad lately."

"Everyone in my dorm has caught a cold."

Hou Taojiu, who was faking illness: ...??

Shao Ming didn't always say that he used this reason, did he?
Ji Ziqian, who was standing to the side, silently reached out and pinched the soft flesh on Hou Taojiu's waist, twisting it hard.

The boy's expression instantly contorted, and he let out a wail as he bent over in pain.

He quickly helped the man up, then looked up and said without changing his expression, "Teacher, you see, his condition is really quite serious."

Hou Taojiu gritted his teeth and said weakly, "Yes... teacher, I..."

The old professor took a sip of water, spat out the tea leaves, and waved his hand: "Alright, go ahead, remember to give your leave slip to your advisor."

"Thank you, teacher."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Hou Taojiu turned his head to the side and secretly winked at Ji Ziqian.

The latter glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Watching the two figures leave, the old professor shook his head, put down his cup, stood up, and did a difficult backbend.

Then, he dusted off the almost non-existent dust from his clothes, put his hands behind his back, and sighed, "Young people these days have really poor physical fitness."

……

Hou Taojiu finally breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the teaching building. He straightened up, rubbing the spot where Ji Ziqian had pinched him, and frowned as he took a deep breath: "Old Ji, why were you so rough?"

Ji Ziqian typed on his phone, and upon hearing this, he added sarcastically, "Who told you to act so badly?"

"Tch, you should praise my quick reflexes, our teamwork was excellent!"

Hou Taojiu slightly raised his chin, looking somewhat smug.

Ji Ziqian sent out the message he had typed.

In the dormitory group chat.

Eighteen-year-old innocent boy: [Posting my location, Monkey and I will be there soon.]

Lu: [Map Location]

Ji Ziqian checked his location and then calmly replied to Hou Taojiu, "Yeah, it's really good."

He put away his phone, his tone unusually interested.

"Let's go see a play."
the other side.

Looking out the car window at the bustling alley, Jiang Jixu was somewhat surprised: "Didn't you say you were going back to school to get something? Why did you park the car here?"

She also studied at University A, so she was naturally familiar with the surrounding environment.

Because this snack street is right next to the university town, the prices are very cheap and the food is delicious. Jiang Jixu often liked to stroll around here when he was in school.

Whenever she walks through the crowd with a skewer sprinkled with cumin in her hand, you feel enveloped in the warmth of the smoky atmosphere.

The world is noisy, yet it is also full of warmth.

Unfortunately, she never came back after graduating from university.

Jiang Jixu pursed his lips, feeling a pang of nostalgia.

Lu Lishen put away his phone, his gaze sweeping across her face: "My roommates are coming over later, so I asked them to bring the documents with them."

Jiang Jixu paused as he pulled on the car door.

"Your roommates? Ah Wang and the others?"

"Hmm." Lu Lishen glanced at the snack street not far away, then said casually, "Don't get out yet, wait for me in the car for a while."

Jiang Jixu was slightly taken aback, not understanding what the man wanted to do, but still obediently nodded.

Lu Lishen got out of the car and quickly closed the door, his movements clean and efficient.

So much so that the car door was slammed shut as soon as Jiang Jixu felt a slight chill.

Immediately afterwards, she saw the man's tall and slender figure walk through the crowd, stroll to a milk tea shop, stop, and then take out his phone to scan the QR code to order.

A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Jixu's eyes.

I never expected that someone like Lu Lishen would go to a roadside shop to buy milk tea.

After buying the milk tea, he continued walking inside, his figure gradually disappearing into the crowd.

Jiang Jixu stared at it for a while, then, as if struck by a thought, took out his phone and opened a drawing app.

With a gentle touch of the fingertips, smooth lines are drawn.

Her gaze was earnest yet gentle. When she was fully absorbed in the moment, she relaxed completely, and the corners of her pale pink lips unconsciously turned up.

When Lu Lishen returned, this was the scene he saw.

The girl's face was half-buried in the fluffy, misty pink scarf, her skin was fair and soft, her eyes were bright, and the strands of hair on her cheeks were slightly curled up, making her look quite cute.

He used his free hand to take out his phone, unlock it, and open the camera.

Freeze time.

After saving the file, he leisurely walked over and opened the car door.

Jiang Jixu, who was engrossed in the activity, couldn't help but sniff the sweet aroma of chestnuts and looked up.

Lu Lishen handed her the bag and said casually, "I just bought it casually. I don't know if you'll like it."

Jiang Jixu took the box and opened it, and sure enough, he saw plump, hot roasted chestnuts and a cup of hot milk tea.

She was pleasantly surprised: "This place has the best roasted chestnuts, but the location isn't great; it's tucked away in a corner, so it's not very popular. How did you find it?"

Lu Lishen lowered his eyes: "Really? I didn't notice. I probably just saw it and bought it... Do you want to drink the milk tea now?"

Jiang Jixu swallowed and honestly said, "I'm a little thirsty."

"bring here."

The girl, unaware of what was going on, handed the milk tea to the man.

Those two slender fingers deftly pulled the straw out of the paper bag, tore open the outer packaging, but left a section at the mouthpiece.

After inserting the straw, he removed the straw packaging, then held the milk tea to Jiang Jixu's lips, his dark eyes flickering.

"Drink."
