I want to have a normal campus romance

After all, it includes my two years of high school and one year of campus life in college. Although it is only three short years, it covers my entire failed love career.

The clerk asked me if I wanted to throw it away. After all, my old phone was already in pieces. But after thinking about it, I decided to let the clerk pack it up for me.

After all, no matter how bad it is, it's still me...

...something.

"Let's go, little brother! If you don't leave now, you will miss the student union meeting."

"Lin Ran?"

"Huh? Oh oh oh, here I come."

After hearing the voices of Liu Tongtong and Bai Yun, I realized that I had been standing at the door of the store like a fool, staring at the phone in my hand.

Seeing this, I quickly replied to them, then put the phone in my pocket, picked up the bag containing the old phones, walked towards them, and followed them.

The car we took back this time didn't have any accidents like before, and the passenger seat could accommodate someone, but this time none of us sat on the passenger seat. Instead, we all sat in the back seat.

As for the reason, it was actually very simple. Liu Tongtong suggested sharing the photos everyone took in the car. In order for everyone to see them conveniently, I was pulled back to the back seat.

Although I was very curious about why they took so many photos, but when I thought about it carefully, it seemed that most girls had the habit of taking photos. What's more...neither Bai Yun nor Liu Tongtong were from Jinhai.

As for me...I am half one. Although my hometown is not in Jinhai, I grew up in Jinhai.

If I remember correctly, after the school celebration is over...it will be almost time for the final exams. This semester is relatively short, so I guess Bai Yun and Liu Tongtong will go back home, right?

Therefore, it is normal to take more photos of the city where your university is located and show them to your relatives. Of course... they can choose not to go back to their hometown, but the school is closed during the holidays, and renting a house outside is a considerable expense.

In addition, Jinhai is also considered a new first-tier city. Although the rent is not high... it is definitely not low, so unless you find an internship during the holidays, most people will not choose to stay in Jinhai.

Otherwise, if they stay in Jinhai during the holidays, I can recommend them some nice places to visit.

Forget it... why think so much? It's still a long way to go before the winter vacation, so I should think about the Student Union's affairs first. After all, this school anniversary art performance is not so easy to fool.

Because of lack of manpower, not only the Student Union, but also other student organizations were pulled in, including the Youth Association where Liu Tongtong was. It can be seen that... the school should also feel that the situation is urgent.

Alas, I suddenly felt like I was just a beast of burden being forced to do hard labor.

Let’s just think about the content of the meeting later. God knows why such an urgent meeting has to be held this time.

But before the meeting, I should go to Xiao Jingwen to ask about the situation. Of course... I also have to think about how to explain the various situations that happened during my trip.

Chapter 181 Crystal Ornaments

To be honest, when I walked to the door of this familiar office, I had been here many times, but I don’t know why I felt inexplicably nervous this time.

Just as I was struggling over whether or not to go in and how to get in, a scream suddenly came from behind me.

"Hey, why are you here? Are you here to see Xiaowen?"

Just at this moment, I suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from behind me. I turned around and found that the person coming was none other than Xiao Jingwen’s college classmate, Zhao Ruo, who is also our college counselor.

"Uh...hahaha, hello, Teacher Zhao."

To be honest, after seeing this somewhat insensitive teacher, I can't help but feel a little upset. Although she is not a bad person, she always means well but ends up doing bad things.

"Sister Wen asked me to come see her. She said she wanted to talk to me about something related to the Student Union."

"Oh, I see. Then come with me. Xiaowen is processing documents in there."

Zhao Ruo nodded at me and then pushed the door open with me. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, there was someone coming in with me, so I wouldn't be so embarrassed.

There was only Xiao Jingwen in the room, sitting at the computer desk processing documents. After hearing the sound of the door opening, she did not look towards the door, but just said something lightly.

"Oh, Zhao Ruo, you're here just in time. Please help me with the documents. I'll go call Lin Ran and ask him why he hasn't arrived yet."

It seemed that Xiao Jingwen thought that the only person coming was Zhao Ruo, but that was no wonder... After all, there were only two counselors, Xiao Jingwen and Zhao Ruo, in the entire office. If a student who was an assistant counselor wanted to come, he would definitely knock on the door before entering.

But this made me feel a little embarrassed. Just when I was thinking about whether to say hello to Xiao Jingwen, Zhao Ruo, who was standing next to me, walked quickly to Xiao Jingwen, then walked behind her and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Xiao Wen, your lovely student has arrived. Why don't you say hello?"

Oh my god...what does it mean to be a cute student that you're obsessed with?

For a moment, Xiao Jingwen, who was typing on the keyboard with both hands, was almost frightened after hearing Zhao Ruo's words. I even saw her delicate body tremble slightly.

I saw her stiffly sticking her head out of the display screen, and our eyes immediately met. I don’t know why, but I just felt that the atmosphere at this moment became a little subtle.

By the way...what is this development?

It would be worse if I just pushed the door open and walked in!

I wanted to say something, but after all, Zhao Ruo was also a counselor and had a good relationship with Xiao Jingwen. As a student, it was not easy for me to say anything, so I could only greet her with a wry smile.

"Um...good afternoon, Sister Wen."

"Ahem...Good afternoon."

As if she felt the atmosphere was a little awkward, Xiao Jingwen coughed twice and greeted me, then looked at Zhao Ruo who was standing behind her, then rubbed her brows with her hands as if she had a headache, and asked her helplessly:

"Why did you two come in together?"

"Well... when I just came back, I found him standing at the door for a long time, so I brought him in. How could it be..."

Zhao Ruo looked at me with a wry smile on my face, then looked at Xiao Jingwen who was a little stiff, as if she had figured out some big secret, and said slowly:

"Could it be that Xiao Wen, you want to scold him?"

"Who...who wants to scold him!"

After hearing what Zhao Ruo said, Xiao Jingwen spoke to her slowly with some coquettishness. However, when Zhao Ruo saw Xiao Jingwen getting angry, she was not afraid at all. She smiled foolishly, as if she was watching the fun and not minding the trouble.

"Oh, I understand... You can't bear to scold your own cute student."

"Can you remove the word cute?"

"Is that the student you've been thinking about?"

"Can you please not add the prefix? And...why are you obsessed with it?"

Listening to the conversation between Xiao Jingwen and Zhao Ruo, I couldn't get a word in. Just when I was thinking whether I should avoid it, Zhao Ruo heard what Xiao Jingwen said, put her hands on her waist and said with her fingers:

"Because you always mention it, let me count. Today you asked me when Lin Ran would arrive at the office, yesterday you asked me how Lin Ran performed in class, and the day before yesterday you told me that if Lin Ran didn't—woo woo woo."

When Zhao Ruo was halfway through his words, Xiao Jingwen suddenly sat up from her seat and hurriedly covered Zhao Ruo's mouth as he tried to continue speaking, while she glanced at me subconsciously.

Uh...should I say something at this time?

Forget it, if I interrupt and say the wrong thing, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing? I'd better pretend to be dead. When the gods fight, the prisoners suffer.

Thinking of this, I swallowed my saliva and looked aside silently. At this moment, I suddenly discovered that Xiao Jingwen's originally tidy desk had a few more decorative ornaments.

Moreover, some of them look quite expensive. They are more ornamental than practical. However, Xiao Jingwen has always liked growing flowers and doesn't like such flashy ornaments.

Could it be that someone gave it to her?

Well... this is normal. After all, Xiao Jingwen is the beautiful counselor of our school. It is normal for someone to give her gifts.

"Zhao Ruo, please help me buy a cup of coffee from the coffee shop next to the teaching building."

At this time, Xiao Jingwen spoke slowly to Zhao Ruo, and after Zhao Ruo heard what Xiao Jingwen said, he looked at me.

Eh? Why are you looking at me?

"Okay, okay, then you two can chat first. I'm going to go get some coffee."

Damn it, don’t go!

This is such a bad time to leave! If you just walk away at this time, you are just throwing me into the fire pit!

All of a sudden, I suddenly regretted why I didn't just push the door open. At least then... my situation wouldn't be as embarrassing as it is now.

Xiao Jingwen sighed, then pulled a chair over and patted the chair to signal me to sit next to her, which surprised me.

Every time we talked, I sat on the public sofa next to her. Why did she let me sit next to her this time?

"Lin Ran, please sit down."

"Uh...oh."

Seeing me standing there without moving, Xiao Jingwen tilted her head in confusion. Seeing this, I came back to my senses, quickly responded and walked over.

And when I sat next to her, I also found that the objects she placed on the table were flower-shaped crystal decorative ornaments. They looked very gorgeous, and the price must be very high.

More importantly, it can be seen that the person who gave the gift is very smart. Not only does he know Bai Yun's preferences, he even chose to give a gift that suits her preferences.

Just when I was wondering who had sent such a valuable gift, I realized that I had been staring at those ornaments for a long time, so much so that when I turned my head, I found Xiao Jingwen looking at me with a strange look.

It’s bad. I’m too obsessed with thinking.

--------------------------

PS: It’s not NTR, it’s not a gift from my ex-boyfriend, and my ex-boyfriend is not the main character in the first volume.

Chapter 182 Unrest

　 "Sister Wen, your crystal ornaments are quite beautiful."

Although I know this kind of words is very cliché, I really don't have time to think of better words at this moment. After all, sometimes a quick answer is more important than a good answer.

After all, in an awkward atmosphere, the most important thing is to break the bad atmosphere rather than resolve the awkward atmosphere.

But as soon as I finished saying it, I felt a little regretful, because I found that there was something wrong with the way Xiao Jingwen looked at me, but as to what kind of thing was wrong... I couldn't tell.

The atmosphere was already somewhat awkward, and it seemed to have become even more awkward because of my abruptness.

"You're talking about this. Wang Ming came to my house a few days ago and gave my parents a lot of gifts. Although my parents kept refusing, I don't know what happened. They refused to take the gifts no matter what. In the end, we had no choice but to accept them. This one was also given by him. I don't have much space at home, so I put it in the office."

After hearing what Xiao Jingwen said, I was stunned at first, and then I suddenly reacted. If I remember correctly, Wang Ming is Xiao Jingwen's cousin's boyfriend. I saw him last time at Jinhai Hotel.

If you count the time, it happened just a few days ago.

Could it be that... Wang Ming really thought I was Xiao Jingwen’s boyfriend, so he gave a bunch of gifts to Xiao Jingwen’s parents?

I don’t think so. At that time, I just acted close to Director Yang, scolded Manager Liao, and then used the gold card that Mo Fushan gave me…

Well, that seems to be enough.

Thinking of this, I rubbed my eyebrows immediately. I didn't expect that my actions at that time would have a chain reaction on Xiao Jingwen. I thought the matter was over.

"Did you say anything to Wang Ming?"

Seeing that I had a headache, Xiao Jingwen rubbed her eyebrows, frowned and asked me with some confusion. After hearing her words, I shrugged helplessly.

"How could that be possible? Sister Wen, you know me well. I never do anything to bully others."

"That's true."

Seeing Xiao Jingwen nodded after hearing what I said, I breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if she misunderstood the relationship, it would not be cleared up in just a few words.

I'm afraid you don't want me to start from the beginning when Pangu created the world.

But what puzzles me is that when Xiao Jingwen explained the crystal component to me, she could have just said that it was given by Wang Ming. After all, this is ultimately a private matter of their family, and there is no need to explain it so clearly to an outsider like me.

Are they afraid that I might misunderstand? But it doesn't really matter if I, an outsider, misunderstand them, right?

"Okay, can you explain, can you explain now what happened to you this afternoon?"

Just as I was lost in thought, Xiao Jingwen clapped her hands, waking me up from my thoughts. When I heard her words, I belatedly remembered the purpose of my coming here.

Seeing this, I quickly explained the situation, but in order to avoid misunderstanding, I omitted some of the details and focused on the purpose of going to Binjiang Avenue and some conflicts that occurred at that time.

"So you went there just to buy a cell phone? Bai Yun and Liu Tongtong went there together in a carpool?"

"Yeah, the phone box is still here. I haven't had time to throw it away yet."

As I said this, I showed the bag in my hand to Xiao Jingwen, and when she saw the box in my hand, a look of understanding flashed in her eyes.

I don’t know if it was my illusion, but after she said that, a look of relief flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared so quickly that I didn’t even know if it was my illusion.

"Ahem, Sister Wen, what happened at the student union? Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

Seeing this, I touched my nose and changed the topic. Besides the fact that the meeting was about to start, I was also afraid that Xiao Jingwen would ask more questions, although I thought it wouldn't be a big problem even if I told Xiao Jingwen everything.

But if I were asked to explain it to her, I didn't know what tone to use, or how to tell her what had happened.

"I really want to talk to you about something important."

After hearing what I said, Xiao Jingwen's expression became a little serious, which made me, who was originally a little casual, sit up straight and become a little more formal.
