Jiang Nianxi brought very little, basically just textbooks and notebooks, packed in a small satchel, so she had packed it well in advance.

In contrast, Yang An was a bit slower.

After he put his backpack on, Jiang Nianxi stood up as well.

She reached out and touched his left hand, wanting to take it.

The moment their skin touched, Yang An's body visibly stiffened.

It quickly returned to its original state.

Jiang Nianxi allowed them to interlock their fingers.

There were many people in class today, and the hallways were crowded with all sorts of noises.

Of course, with more people, congestion and traffic jams are inevitable.

And... it doesn't smell very good either.

Yang An was squeezed in the corner and couldn't help but wrinkle his nose.

It smells like a mixture of various perfumes.

Among them are some... foreigners who have been sprayed with cologne.

The atmosphere had become quite tense after all.

In short, it's very pungent.

Jiang Nianxi, who was standing right next to him, noticed his predicament, smiled, and deliberately moved a little closer.

The arm squeezed and deformed the soft ball.

For a moment, the delicate fragrance of jasmine seemed to mask those indescribable smells.

"..."

After finally getting down the stairs, Jiang Nianxi smiled and asked him, "Sweetie, what do you want to eat?"

"...Anything is fine."

Yang An shook his head.

"I've saved up a little over sixty yuan recently. It might not be much, but it's enough to treat you to a meal."

"If you won't tell me, then we'll go off-campus?"

The word "off-campus" seemed to instantly evoke unpleasant memories in his mind, sending a shiver down his spine.

Such an obvious tremor could not possibly escape a woman's keen senses.

"Why are you so nervous? It's not like I'm going to eat you..."

She pulled her fingers out from between her fingers and gently scratched Yang An's palm, like a casual teasing.

Then, it brought its little head close and breathed hot air into the other person's ear.

"The money I save isn't even enough for a hotel room, what are you afraid of...?"

It was itchy, as if tiny claws were constantly scratching inside Yang An's heart.

Yang An's face quickly turned red.

That crazy woman.

He gritted his teeth and turned his face away.

"hehe……"

What was bound to happen has already happened.

What shouldn't have been done, has already been done.

Surprisingly, even after all that, my little deskmate still blushes and gets shy easily.

Jiang Nianxi chuckled softly and interlocked her fingers again.

So cute...

He shifted his gaze forward and stopped talking about it.

……

"Whose child is this? How can they be so blind? Oh dear, they bumped into someone and didn't even apologize..."

"Dad, try a different hand gesture... Don't always make the peace sign when taking pictures..."

Just outside the school gate is a snack street.

Unlike typical main roads for cars, this place is crowded with people.

Most of them are a group of elders with a few younger relatives, or couples together.

The lights were on, and the place was bustling with activity.

The aroma that whets the appetite wafts everywhere, spreading through crowds of people.

Jiang Nianxi held Yang An's hand as they strolled slowly among the dazzling array of shops.

As if strolling leisurely in a garden.

"..."

This scene seems so familiar...

Looking around at the crowds of people, the occasional shouts, and the bright lights and bustling atmosphere.

Yang An's thoughts suddenly became somewhat blurred.

Back then, it was Jiang Nianxi who led her into a snack street she had never heard of before.

I bought a lot of things and did a lot of fun things.

That day was a day of joy, but also the beginning of a nightmare.

It has only been less than two months.

But for some reason, Yang An felt as if half a year had passed.

He still remembers that Jiang Nianxi bought him a bracelet back then.

However, during his imprisonment, the other party originally wanted to put it on him, but in the struggle, it was smashed into a mess.

Led by Jiang Nianxi, the two finally sat down at a dumpling restaurant.

"Oh, and... bring over a fried dough stick too."

Just as the waiter was about to leave with the notepad, Jiang Nianxi hesitated for a few seconds before speaking again to give the order.

Yang An sat opposite her, watching her hand him a pair of chopsticks: "Why did you order another pancake?"

"The dumplings here are pretty good, but there aren't many... I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat."

Before the dumplings were even served, Jiang Nianxi took two small dishes, mixed the sauce, and responded softly.

Remembering something, she pushed the prepared dish in front of Yang An: "Recently, outside jobs don't allow students to work... so I haven't earned any money yet... but..."

Her eyes seemed to hold the gentle flow of a stream, murmuring endlessly.

"If you're willing to stay by my side, I won't let you suffer. Before long, I'll make sure you're eating even better."

"...Why bring this up?"

Yang An dipped his chopsticks into Xiao Die's sauce and couldn't help but chuckle: "You have a video. Do you need my permission to keep me by your side?"

"..."

Hearing this, Jiang Nianxi lowered her eyes and said softly, "If it weren't for these things, why would you stay by my side..."

Inside the small dish, a few drops of vinegar still floated on the oily noodles, reflecting the woman's stunning beauty.

Her mind went blank for a moment, and she was slightly stunned.

"I've given you everything I could, and I'm probably not bad-looking... so why are you resisting me...?"

"The dumplings are ready. Please enjoy your meal."

The waiter brought a large plate of dumplings and a wrapped-up fried dough stick, placing them on the table between the two people.

The dumplings were indeed very plump and bulging, making them very appetizing at first glance.

Yang An put down his chopsticks: "Your emotions are too twisted; I can't bear them."

"Ha, twisted, huh...?"

The woman chuckled softly, but simply gestured with her chin towards the large plate of dumplings: "Eat first, they taste pretty good."

"good……"

Although they were supposed to be eating dumplings, Jiang Nianxi barely touched her chopsticks even after the whole plate of dumplings was finished.

Occasionally, I would pick up a dumpling and put it in my mouth.

Yang An, on the other hand, didn't care about that.

He had only come reluctantly, and adhering to the principle of "if you're going to eat it, you might as well eat it," he managed to finish all the dumplings in one go.

They taste delicious, and some even burst with broth.

It was indeed delicious.

He pulled out a tissue and wiped the grease off his mouth. He looked up and his eyes met Jiang Nianxi's gentle gaze.

That look... it was like looking at a child, always full of boundless tolerance and comfort.

"..."

Yang An glanced at the fried dough he had only taken a few bites of, then at the sauce in the other person's small dish, his Adam's apple bobbing.

Did you eat too much...?

He coughed lightly and offered a small portion of the fried dough: "Would you... like some?"

Want some?

Jiang Nianxi smiled, just about to refuse.

She didn't plan to eat much.

However... my gaze lingered on the several bite marks on the fried dough.

Jiang Nianxi changed her mind.
