I want to have a normal campus romance

When did this feeling start? Was it that phone call, a misunderstanding, or a word of comfort at the general meeting, or even earlier... in that bar?

Even though our relationship seemed to have remained the same, something fundamental had changed, and even I couldn't quite figure it out.

No one of us said a word along the way. Xiao Jingwen just drove the car, holding the steering wheel, and I just looked at the scenery in front of the car window quietly. We maintained a tacit silence with each other until Xiao Jingwen drove back to school.

"Your car has a certificate issued by the school... Hmm? Is it you?"

At the school gate, a security guard stopped our car, and I then realized that this security guard was the same one who had asked Xiao Jingwen to move the car. After Xiao Jingwen rolled down her car window, the three of us were stunned.

When the security guard realized it was us, he seemed to understand something and smiled and said to us slowly:

"I thought you two little lovers wouldn't be coming back tonight."

I felt a little embarrassed when I heard the security guard's words. Looking at his eyes that seemed to see through everything, I was about to explain a few words, but I found that Xiao Jingwen was stunned for a long time after hearing the security guard's words, and then slowly took out something like a document from the bag next to her and slowly said to the security guard:

"I am a counselor at the School of Economics and Management, and these are my students..."

After hearing Xiao Jingwen's words of identifying herself, I was stunned for a moment. At this moment, I inexplicably felt a little dazed. Obviously, everything seemed so ordinary, even so normal, but I felt like waking up from a dream.

"Ah? Oh... I see, I misunderstood... I'm sorry!"

When the security guard heard what we said, the look on his face suddenly became a little embarrassed. After asking us a few symbolic questions, he asked the security guard in the security room to lift the railing and let us pass.

Xiao Jingwen quietly took back her ID, without showing any special expression on her face. Everything developed as it should have, clear and normal... For a moment, I even felt that what happened before might have been a dream.

Maybe everything that happened before was just my overthinking. Thinking of this...I felt a little more at ease, but I suddenly felt like something was missing in my heart.

The weekend nights at school are a time for couples to revel. Couples can be seen walking and passing by the main road from time to time, and Xiao Jingwen also slowly slowed down the car, as if she was moved by the scene... Xiao Jingwen actually asked me slowly for no reason:

"Have you ever been in love?"

After hearing what Xiao Jingwen said, I was shocked at first, because I didn't expect Xiao Jingwen to ask me such a thing. It seemed that I was stunned for a long time, and she asked slowly without waiting for my response:

"Not available?"

"There's nothing to hide. I had a few relationships in middle school, but they weren't very successful. We all ended up breaking up. Of course... maybe I just have too high expectations."

“Are you demanding?”

After hearing what I said, Xiao Jingwen asked me a question with some confusion, and I smiled and adjusted my sitting position, found a comfortable position and leaned back in the chair and continued:

"I often liked to read novels at that time, all kinds of novels, so I would occasionally fantasize about how great it would be if I were the protagonist of the novel, I could meet all kinds of girls, love would be at my fingertips, and I would only need to worry about it."

I held the back of my head with my hands, and slowly complained to Xiao Jingwen about my past with some self-mockery.

"Then I had a failed relationship during my freshman year, and then I realized... Novels are just novels after all. I'm just an ordinary student. I don't have everything that the protagonists of novels have, nor do I have those sudden loves. That kind of thing... It's okay to dream occasionally."

After hearing what I said, Xiao Jingwen nodded silently. After I said all this, I felt a little more comfortable. Seeing her hesitant look, I slowly asked back:

"Sister Wen, what about you?"

"Mine..."

After hearing what I said, Xiao Jingwen's voice seemed to become a little melancholy. Perhaps this kind of topic should not happen between us.

But it seemed that the night made our feelings more emotional, or it might be the surrounding scenery that made us both numb to such topics. After sighing, Xiao Jingwen slowly said to me:

"I don't have the same experience as you, or maybe I was a little naive at that age. I didn't have a relationship in junior high and high school. In college... I only had that one relationship with you, but in fact... we never even held hands."

Xiao Jingwen drove the car slowly, as if she was recalling and organizing her words, and her speech was intermittent.

"When I was a graduate student, I would occasionally call him and ask about his well-being. At that time, I thought we were in love, but later I realized that it was all wishful thinking. When I came to my senses, I realized that I had already gone through most of my youth."

"Sister Wen, don't you plan to have another date? With your conditions, I think you can easily find a tall, rich and handsome man, right?"

Hearing that the topic seemed a bit heavy, I quickly changed the atmosphere and spoke to Xiao Jingwen jokingly. After hearing what I said, Xiao Jingwen also smiled and said:

"When I just graduated from college, many people pursued me, but it's not the case now... I can't find that kind of pure love outside the campus. We are all worldly-wise and have passed the stage of chasing love."

After this sentence, we both fell silent, as if some memories deep in our hearts were touched. Xiao Jingwen may not be one or two years older than me, but age does not mean everything. People who are younger than me may still be ahead of me in the stage of life.

After leaving school, I faced a new stage in my life. This stage was vague and a subtle feeling. Maybe I can't fully understand what Xiao Jingwen is thinking, but I can more or less feel the emotions hidden in her heart.

PS: There will be another update in the morning. I was unlucky today. When I went to do nucleic acid test at night, I mistakenly brought my keys for car keys. I was locked outside the door like a fool. I spent more than an hour negotiating with the locksmith to come in. It was past ten o'clock when I got home, so the update is a little late. Sorry. TAT

Chapter 123: The Omen of Shura Field

Xiao Jingwen and I just casually recounted our pasts. I told her about the various embarrassing things that happened in middle school, and she told me about her college life. Compared to me, who just slacked off and lived a lazy life, Xiao Jingwen's college life was filled more with studying.

But this is not surprising. After all, Xiao Jingwen was admitted to graduate school, which is more difficult than being admitted to graduate school, not to mention being a graduate student of Jinhai University. The value of this is simply daunting for a poor student like me.

But compared to her academic experience, her emotional experience is pitifully limited. No wonder when I was at her house, she would blush because of a word or two from outsiders or me. To be honest...this was the first time I saw Xiao Jingwen blush.

To be honest, when I met Xiao Jingwen for the first time, I thought I would never see her blushing in my life. Now that I think about it...the experience just now, or the recent experience, was like a dream.

"Okay, here we are..."

Xiao Jingwen's voice rang in my ears, pulling me back to reality from my thoughts. Then I realized that she had driven to my dormitory building.

Looking at the familiar boys' dormitory building in front of me, the feeling of being torn between reality and fantasy made me a little dazed at this moment, but I quickly came to my senses and slowly pushed open the car door.

"Oh, thank you, Sister Wen, then... I'm leaving now."

I smiled and thanked Xiao Jingwen. As soon as I opened the door and took one step out, I felt someone holding my hand. I didn't even need to think about who was holding my hand, I could answer the question.

But I still didn't dare to believe it, because it was too absurd. I couldn't imagine why Xiao Jingwen would hold my hand at this time, so even though I knew the result... I still turned back in surprise.

For a moment, my eyes met with Xiao Jingwen's. At this moment, there was a hint of trance in Xiao Jingwen's eyes, as if she didn't know why she was holding me at this time.

It was not until her other hand accidentally pressed on the car horn and we were both startled by the sudden whistle that her eyes gradually regained clarity. Then, as if she remembered something, she let go of my wrist as if she had been electrocuted.

The atmosphere around us became awkward again, and the originally clear relationship became confusing again. Everything seemed to have returned to the starting point. Looking at the slightly conflicted expression on Xiao Jingwen's face, I seemed to understand.

Because that look was like—

"Fuck, that's Brother Lin, right?"

"It looks like it's Brother Lin, Fatty, you have good eyesight, take a look."

“That seems to me too!”

The sudden voice behind me disrupted my thoughts, and the lines that I had been trying to sort out became messy again.

I was about to curse inwardly, who was shouting so loudly at this hour of night, but suddenly I realized that the voice just now sounded familiar. Wait a minute... Isn't this the voice of Fatty and the others? Why are they not staying in the dormitory at this hour of night?

I slowly turned around and found that Fatty and his friends were taking a walk not far away, with two figures following behind them. However, it was too dark around, and Fatty and his friends were blocking the view, so I couldn't see clearly.

When the three of them saw it was me, they said something to each other and then ran towards me one by one.

When I saw this, I thought they were here to pick me up, and I was suddenly touched. But I soon realized something was wrong, because I found that their expressions were a little strange, and it seemed as if they were saying...finally free?

"Damn it, Brother Lin... you're finally here. If you had come a little later, we would have become the public enemy of men."

"Brother Lin, you've made us wait so long!"

After hearing what Xiao Li and Lao Wang said, I shuddered all over, pushed away the fat man who was about to give me a bear hug, and asked them in confusion:

"My Zhuo, what's wrong with you all? I'm not dead yet. Why are you acting like you're at a funeral?"

After hearing what I said, the fat man showed a helpless expression on his face. He said nothing, but just pointed behind him.

"look by youself."

Behind you? What's behind you? Are you possessed by a ghost in the middle of the night? Or were you shot by a strange arrow and awakened some strange substitute?

"What are you looking at? Are you... huh???"

I pulled his body apart in disbelief and looked behind him. What I saw stunned me. I even rubbed my eyes and thought for a moment that I was seeing things, because the two figures not far away that I didn't see clearly were clearly Bai Yun and Liu Tongtong!

Why are they here!!!

When Bai Yun saw me looking at them, she smiled at me shyly and waved, gentle and touching. The little girl Liu Tongtong made two "yeah" gestures, looking very cute in her mischievous manner.

If it were any other time, I would definitely say that my life was worthwhile, but... at this moment, in this situation, it’s simply too bad!

"After you hung up the phone, Bai Yun said she wanted to go downstairs for a walk and wait for you, so Liu Tongtong asked us to be bodyguards. If you had come a little later, you would probably only be able to see our posthumous photos."

"Huh? That's not the case, is it?"

"It's not as big as your head! Look over there!"

"Where is it? Hey hey uh...don't pull me...shit!!!"

After hearing what the fat man said, I looked around but didn’t see anything. However, the fat man grabbed me and pointed to the dormitory building in front of me. It would have been fine if I hadn’t looked at it, but when I saw it, I was almost scared to death.

Because at this time, on the balconies of the boys' dormitory building, many people were leaning over to look over here. Some balconies had several people, and some were even a dormitory, but no matter what, there were at least dozens of people.

I saw them talking about something on the balcony after seeing Bai Yun and Liu Tongtong greeting me, but looking at their burning eyes, I felt that they were definitely not saying anything good.

"Damn, why are there so many people? Are they all full and have nothing to do?"

"Have you been around beautiful girls for too long and lost your mind?! Bai Yun and Liu Tongtong are the school beauties!"

After hearing what the fat man said, I was stunned for a moment, followed by a feeling of embarrassment, because in some sense, what he said seemed... uh, ahem, seemingly correct.

Just when I was about to say something, I suddenly felt a blinding light flash in my peripheral vision. I subconsciously turned my head and found that the car's high beam was suddenly turned on.

"Shit! Whose group is the Paladin? Kick him!"

"No, it's too blinding. Why would anyone use high beams?"

"Damn, who opened it?"

There were bursts of complaints from the dormitory building as the sudden light came on, but fortunately the high beam was only on for a short while before being turned off, and Xiao Jingwen slowly opened the car door and walked out.

After seeing that it was Xiao Jingwen, many people in the crowd knew Xiao Jingwen. Someone in the noisy crowd shouted, "Fuck, it's the counselor!" Then the entire dormitory building became quiet.

The balcony, which was originally crowded with people, was instantly deserted. After all, the students in our dormitory building were basically all sophomores in our college. Except for a few brave students, everyone else went back to their dormitories and hid there.

I was so scared, I thought I would die here today.

I was about to breathe a sigh of relief when I saw this, but suddenly I felt a chill on my back, because I just felt... three pairs of eyes fixed on me.

"Brother Fatty, don't you think...is this a blessing in disguise?"

"No, this is like getting out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den!"

Chapter 124 My Flower Language

"Stop talking nonsense and come help me!"

After hearing what Fatty and the others said, the corners of my eyes twitched for a moment, but feeling the three gazes like thorns on my back, I still whispered to Fatty and the others and winked at them frantically.

Fatty coughed twice when he saw this, and was about to say something to help me, but before he could open his mouth, the three of them heard the noise over here and all looked over here at the same time, which scared the fat guy so much that he immediately pretended to look at the scenery.

"Ahem, well...you guys continue chatting, the three of us will go upstairs first."

Damn it! Didn't you agree to help me? Why did you run away like that?!

Where is the promised deep love between father and son?

Not only did he not help, but before leaving, the fat man whispered to me earnestly:

"Xiao Lin, I think it's better for you to handle this kind of thing yourself."

"Come on, Brother Lin!"

"We support you spiritually!"

Hey, hey, hey, help! Don't go!

But before I could say anything, Fatty and the others ran back to the dormitory building. Although I wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, their gazes seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and I couldn't move my legs at all for a moment.

By the way...what is going on?

Why did this kind of Shura-like scene happen to me? Did God add some weird things into me when he created me?

I took a deep breath, then forced myself to calm down, and slowly turned my head. Only then did I realize that the current situation was like a three-legged tripod. Bai Yun and Xiao Jingwen looked at me, and then looked at each other.

"Good evening, Mr. Xiao."

"Good evening, um... why are you here? It's almost time to lock up the dormitories, right?"

Bai Yun was slightly stunned after hearing Xiao Jingwen's words. Although her expression didn't change much, I could see that she looked a little embarrassed.

"Let's...let's take a walk here, what about you, Teacher Xiao?"

"I......"
