Oh no, the aloof school beauty has been reborn too!

Tang Xiaoman stood behind the cashier and stared at Lu Xing across the counter for a few seconds.

Both of them tacitly chose to play dumb, but their reasons for doing so were different.

"that……"

Lu Xing awkwardly raised his hand and scratched his cheek.

"Are there any chocolate cakes left?"

Tang Xiaoman nodded quickly.

Yes, there is!

After she finished speaking, she walked around from behind the counter and quickly headed towards the shelf where the chocolate cakes were displayed.

Which one do you want?

Lu Xing pretended to scan the shelves, and finally pointed to the one he had bought before.

"This is fine, could you please pack it up for me?"

"OK!"

Tang Xiaoman deftly packed the cake and then escorted Lu Xing to the store entrance.

"Welcome to visit again..."

Once Lu Xing's figure had completely disappeared into the crowd, she immediately took out her phone and quickly sent a message in the group chat.

Tang Xiaoman: [Lu Xing is buying cakes again!]

Xu Zhixia: [@OrangeSoda Your husband bought another cake!]

Shen Qingyi: [???]

At this moment, Shen Qingyi, on the other side of the screen, had just finished class and was walking towards her dormitory.

Shen Qingyi: [What about the cake he bought the first time?]

Tang Xiaoman: [He's gone, but I saw he had lemon tea and a bag from a Bichon Frise store.]

Han Shuyan: [Xiaoman, why did you notice the lemon tea first?]

Tang Xiaoman: [crying.jpg]

Tang Xiaoman: [I'm not talking to you guys anymore!]

Upon seeing this, Shen Qingyi paused slightly.

She looked down at her phone, a hint of doubt appearing in her eyes.

"strangeness……"

He shouldn't be the type of person who likes sweets.

……

When Lu Xing returned to the dormitory, the room was empty; there wasn't a soul in sight.

First, we can rule out the possibility that my roommates went to the library, and finally, we can rule out the possibility that they went to the study room.

Ok……

Thinking about it that way, my mood immediately improved a lot.

No one was secretly cheating, and no one was quietly working hard behind the scenes.

World peace, bright sunshine, and a beautiful mood.

Lu Xing placed the foot warmer and cake on the table, slumped into his chair, and let out a long sigh of relief.

He looked up at his bed, but Shen Qingyi's face kept popping into his mind.

Lu Xing's gaze fell on the phone on the table again.

The two had already arranged to meet at the cafeteria entrance later.

Come to think of it, today is Christmas Day...

Do normal couples go out for a nice meal?

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Xing finally picked up his phone and sent a message to Shen Qingyi.

Lu Xing: [What are you doing right now?]

The other party replied almost instantly.

Shen Qingyi: [I'm secretly thinking about you~]

Lu Xing: [I miss you too.]

Shen Qingyi: [Will you only think of me when I miss you?]

Lu Xing: [Then I'll be thinking of you every single moment.]

Shen Qingyi quickly sent a meme of a kitten spinning around.

As Lu Xing watched, he couldn't help but smile.

Even though I only chatted with her for a few minutes through the screen, the fatigue I felt when I went out earlier seemed to be easily washed away.

Lu Xing: [Today is Christmas, and I bought something to give you.]

Lu Xing: [Want to guess what it is?]

The game of "guess what" seems to have gradually become a little fun between them.

Shen Qingyi: [Hehe, let me guess...]

Shen Qingyi: [It's a lava-smooth chocolate ice cream cake!]

Lu Xing sat up straight in his chair instantly.

I rely on?

Why didn't you say so earlier that you had cheated?

Lu Xing: [How did you know?]

He stared at the screen, his expression somewhat complicated.

It's one thing to guess it's a cake, but how come you can pronounce its full name perfectly?

Shen Qingyi: [Your Shen classmate is incredibly insightful and resourceful, why don't you come and pay your respects?]

Lu Xing: [This is terrifying...]

After sending the message, Lu Xing belatedly realized that something was wrong.

Before he could think about it further, the message from the other end had already been retracted.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Qingyi sent another message.

Shen Qingyi: [Student Shen, your strategies are truly brilliant! Why don't you come and pay your respects?]

Shen Qingyi: [There was a typo just now, please resend it.]

Lu Xing then realized what he had just missed, and he was so anxious that he almost stomped his feet on the spot.

How could I, with my idiot brain, not have taken a screenshot?!

Lu Xing: [Okay.]

Both people on either side of the screen blushed.

……

Lu Xing, carrying a cake and a bag, stood at the entrance of the cafeteria waiting for Shen Qingyi.

A boy was standing at the entrance of the cafeteria carrying a cake; no matter how you looked at it, he looked like he was waiting for his girlfriend.

Several girls passing by glanced at him from time to time, whispering something, their eyes filled with a hint of mockery.

Lu Xing pretended not to see it, staring down at his phone, his fingers aimlessly swiping across the screen.

Just then, someone gently poked his side from behind.

"hiss!"

Lu Xing shuddered from the poke and then turned away helplessly.

really……

Shen Qingyi was standing behind him, looking at him with a smile.

"Hehe, have you been waiting long?"

She wore her hair in pigtails today, and the tip of her nose was a little red from the cold wind.

Lu Xing looked at her, his voice unconsciously softening.

"It didn't take long."

"It's cold outside, let's go inside."

As he spoke, he instinctively reached out to take her hand.

Unfortunately, I had to give up since I was carrying things in both hands.

Shen Qingyi saw through his intention and smiled.

She stepped forward and took his arm tightly.

"Okay, let's go then~"

Lu Xing's arm was suddenly touched by something soft and warm, which made him pause for a moment.

He quickly looked up and pretended nothing had happened.

Shen Qingyi glanced up and saw Lu Xing putting on an act, and couldn't help but chuckle to herself.

The two entered the cafeteria.

Lu Xing first put his things on the seat, and then accompanied Shen Qingyi to the window to order food.

They ate satay noodles tonight.

"Two classic set meals, plus tofu puffs."

"One medium spicy, one non-spicy."

"Okay!"

The uncle at the window skillfully put the noodles into the pot.

Before long, the rich aroma of satay tea wafted over with the steam.

Shen Qingyi stood next to Lu Xing, her gaze involuntarily glancing towards the seat.

"What was in that bag you were carrying?"

Lu Xing scratched his cheek, deciding to keep it a secret for now.

"It's also a small gift for you; you'll find out soon enough."

Shen Qingyi turned her head away and deliberately gave a soft hum.

"Hmph, fine, I won't tell you then~"

The noodles were ready quickly.

Lu Xing carried the tray back to his seat, and the two sat down facing each other this time.

The steaming noodles were placed on the table, the soup glistening with a slight sheen of oil, and the aroma was irresistible.

Shen Qingyi picked up a piece of noodles with her chopsticks, blew on it carefully, and then cautiously put it into her mouth.

The next second, her eyes lit up slightly.

"Mmm! It's actually quite delicious!"

"I've never tried the satay noodles at this school before."

Lu Xing also lowered his head and took a bite.

After a moment, he remembered the cake on the table and asked hesitantly:

"Although it seems a bit late to ask now..."

"But will you still be able to eat cake later?"

Shen Qingyi blinked, her tone tinged with amusement:

"For girls, desserts are like food stored in a separate stomach!"

She paused for a moment at this point.

"But then again..."

Why did you buy two cakes today?
