Ling Ziqian was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Recalling Yu Meiren's question just now, he felt a little embarrassed.

Why did I want to go to the same university as those two guys?

Is it because they can't bear to part?

Even if you attend the same university, you'll still end up going your separate ways after graduation and starting work, right?

What can happen if they're both in the same university?

He recalled what he had said to Su Mingxi before: he didn't want to be separated from her.

Ling Ziqian also blushed. He had been too bold. He was afraid that Su Mingxi would misunderstand what he had said!

She was definitely misunderstood, which is why she was so embarrassed that she crawled under the covers.

But was it really a misunderstanding?

I really don't want to break up with her. Isn't this kind of feeling a bit too strong for ordinary friends?

Could it be that I didn't even realize that deep down, I harbor inappropriate feelings for Su Mingxi?

Thinking of this, Ling Ziqian quickly shook his head. He changed the hot water to cold water to calm himself down.

Episode 43: Time Flies

Chapter 337 If fate allows, then we shall meet again!

Ling Ziqian spent as much time in the bathroom as he was lost in thought.

Some ideas he had never had before made him a little apprehensive.

After taking a shower, Ling Ziqian walked out of the bathroom.

It's already midnight. Yu Meiren and Cupid are still watching TV.

The two were watching an entertainment gossip channel. Just as Ling Ziqian was about to remind them that it was time to take a break, a piece of gossip that caught his attention popped up on the screen.

Park Kyung-hyun, a South Korean star who has been developing his career in China, has attended several events since the New Year.

However, every time he participated in an event, he not only failed to attract fans, but was also unanimously criticized and insulted by the audience.

His actions of kicking and shoving fans angered people from all walks of life, lowered the standards of Peninsula artists, and damaged the image of the entertainment company.

According to sources, Park Kyung-hyun has returned to the Korean Peninsula. She has been sidelined by her entertainment company!

This piece of entertainment gossip made Ling Ziqian laugh; that Korean was finally doomed.

Yu Meiren changed the channel out of boredom, and it happened to be the local news channel of Haitang City.

The news reported that several Taekwondo gyms in Haitang City had closed down due to poor management.

Ling Ziqian laughed again, guessing that those taekwondo gyms weren't poorly managed, but rather that Huo Nan had done something underhanded.

Seeing that Ling Ziqian had finished showering, Yu Meiren yawned and turned off the TV. She then declared that she was going to bed.

Ling Ziqian walked towards his room, but was grabbed by Yu Meiren.

Yu Meiren pulled Ling Ziqian towards her room.

"Hey beautiful lady, can you please stop this?" Ling Ziqian was sweating profusely; this guy was serious!

"What do you mean, 'don't do that'?" Yu Meiren asked with a questioning look. "Let's vote on sleeping together. Raise your hand if you agree that we should all sleep together!"

As Yu Meiren spoke, she had already raised her hand.

Cupid blushed and raised her little hand as well.

Even the black cat Huan Yue came to cause trouble; she lay on the ground, her four legs in the air!

Upon witnessing that scene, Ling Ziqian broke out in a cold sweat!

"Speechless now, aren't you!" Yu Meiren chuckled, pulling Ling Ziqian into the room.

"I'm telling you guys..." Ling Ziqian was full of resentment, but didn't know how to complain.

He was pinned down on the bed, with Yu Meiren and Cupid lying on either side of him.

They pulled up the covers and the three of them slept together under one covers. The black cat, Huan Yue, jumped onto the covers and lay there like a mascot.

Perhaps it was because Cupid was by his side that Ling Ziqian didn't have time to overthink things and fell asleep comfortably.

The room lights were still on. Yu Meiren lay on her side, a hint of sadness in her eyes, looking at the sleeping Ling Ziqian.

"Beautiful sister, if one day I leave, you'll be very sad, won't you?" Cupid asked this question.

“That’s right.” Yu Meiren smiled and reached out to gently stroke Ling Ziqian’s cheek. “When he used to stay at home, I hoped he would go out. Now that he’s growing up and will one day spread his wings and fly, I hope he will stay by my side.”

"Humans are so contradictory," Cupid-chan remarked. (The woman's words were followed by a series of seemingly unrelated phrases.)

“Hmm.” Yu Meiren nodded. “Whatever the conflict or what, let nature take its course. Of course, I can’t bear to part with him, so I’ll sleep with him and cherish the time we spend together.”

Cupid laughed, "I wonder when little brother will understand your feelings, beautiful sister, and how he will respond once he does."

Yu Meiren smiled and shook her head, not thinking about such things. "It's late, let's not talk about it anymore, let's go to sleep."

After turning off the lights, Yu Meiren hugged the sleeping Ling Ziqian, and Cupid also snuggled into Ling Ziqian's arms.

I slept soundly, and when I woke up the next day, both of those guys were already up.

Ling Ziqian yawned and stretched.

I turned over and got out of bed; everything seemed normal.

As Ling Ziqian went downstairs to school, he saw Su Mingxi at the intersection.

Just as Ling Ziqian was about to wave goodbye, Su Mingxi lowered her head and turned to leave.

"She's angry! You pervert! What did you do to her after I left last night?" Upon seeing that scene, Huan Yue in his mind shouted in alarm.

"She's not angry!" Ling Ziqian said somewhat awkwardly. "She's just shy."

"Shy?" Huan Yue was extremely puzzled. "What did you do last night? If you don't tell me, I'll find out for myself!"

"Don't rummage through my memories!" Ling Ziqian explained with a dark face, "I just said that I didn't want to break up with her."

After explaining to Huan Yue, Ling Ziqian quickly caught up with Su Mingxi.

Su Mingxi lowered her head, her face flushed red, extremely shy.

"Why are you running? Did Xiao Rong go back?" Ling Ziqian asked curiously.

"Yes, I went back early this morning," Su Mingxi said softly, walking quickly.

Ling Ziqian blushed a little when he recalled saying last night that he didn't want to break up.

The two arrived at the school one after the other and went into the classroom to sit down.

Su Mingxi buried herself in her book and didn't speak to Ling Ziqian. Apart from the persistent blush on her cheeks, she acted normally.

The results of last semester's final exams have been posted.

Ling Ziqian went to take a look. Su Mingxi was still in first place, while he had defeated the fifth-ranked student in the class and was in the top ten of the liberal arts class.

Back in her seat, Su Mingxi blushed, which made Ling Ziqian laugh.

"Hey, stop overthinking."

"I wasn't thinking anything!"

"..." Ling Ziqian was somewhat depressed.

He nodded. That's right. He realized that he had said something like that last night; only ordinary friends would say such a thing.

Deep down, he might have had different feelings for Su Mingxi.

Su Mingxi sensed it, which is why she blushed so much.

"Anyway, relax, otherwise how can you study?" Ling Ziqian scratched his head awkwardly. "If you feel uncomfortable sitting with me, I'll ask Sister Qiuzhen to switch seats."

With that, Ling Ziqian stood up, intending to go to the office to find Cui Qiuzhen and switch seats.

At that moment, Su Mingxi reached out and grabbed Ling Ziqian's sleeve.

She didn't speak, her head still lowered, her cheeks flushed even more!

This action is probably to prevent myself from changing seats.

Ling Ziqian laughed, and boldly reached out to pat Su Mingxi's head.

"Alright, Su Mingxi, stop overthinking. Nobody knows what the future holds. When I said I didn't want to be separated from you, I meant I wanted to seize the moment and strive for the life I wanted. You're my sister, my friend. It would be very painful if I couldn't see you again in the future."

"And you, you don't want to be separated from me either, right?"

Su Mingxi released Ling Ziqian and, in a fit of rage, punched him.

She didn't speak and continued reading, but the blush on her cheeks gradually faded.

After two peaceful classes, that mischievous Shen Qiaoyan burst into the classroom.

She sobbed and hugged Ling Ziqian and Su Mingxi tightly.

Ling Ziqian and Su Mingxi were quite frightened, thinking that someone had bullied her.

"Waaah, Master, Sister Mingxi, it's too late..." Shen Qiaoyan said indistinctly.

"What's late?" Ling Ziqian and Su Mingxi exchanged a glance, both completely baffled, not knowing what Shen Qiaoyan was talking about.

"I wanted to take the college entrance exam with you all. Grandpa even encouraged me before, but I just talked to the school principal about skipping a grade, and he told me that the registration deadline for the college entrance exam has long passed. Even if I skip to the senior year, I still can't take the exam with you all, sob sob..."

It turned out she meant that it was too late, which left Ling Ziqian somewhat amused and exasperated.

Su Mingxi hugged Su Mingxi with great sympathy, patted her back, and gently comforted her.

"What a pity!" Huan Yue sighed.

“What’s there to regret?” Ling Ziqian didn’t think so. “It’s not a big deal.”

"Tsk tsk, how did you become so cold-blooded? You clearly know she likes you and wants to go to the same university as you!"

Ling Ziqian was both amused and exasperated. "This is not cold-blooded. I'm just easygoing. All good things must come to an end. If we are destined to meet again, then let's meet again."

Huan Yue had nothing to say.

Ling Ziqian patted Su Mingxi and Shen Qiaoyan on the shoulder and led them to skip class.
