Chapter 80 The Rival Appears
I was shocked by the voice, "Eh? Aren't you busy now?"
Ci Yuan spoke calmly, "I'm busy, but I said that no matter how busy I am in the future, I will try my best to reply to you in time. I don't like to break my promise."
This actually made me a little embarrassed, "Actually, it doesn't matter. I don't care whether I reply or not. I'm just frustrated and want to find someone to complain about."
Ci Yuan must be a master in love and understands women's thoughts very well, "I know, but I feel that you not only want to complain, but also need comfort."
I did expect his comfort in my heart, but when he said it directly like this, I felt that I was being too pretentious.
Isn't it just eating some dog food? What's the point? Nowadays, young people like to show affection. Wherever they go on the street, it's not dog food?
I didn't know how to respond to him, so I put the little conch to my ear and waited for him to comfort me. Anyway, it was his own choice and I didn't force him.
Ci Yuan quickly said: "I'm sure I can't do what Shen Qingyang does to Tao Li, because I'm too irritated, but I will try my best to satisfy you."
I laughed with satisfaction, "I don't need that either. It's a bit disgusting and makes me feel chills just thinking about it. But your last words comforted me."
Ci Yuan's tone was still a little surprised, "Are your requirements so low? You have already been comforted without me even saying a sweet word?"
I asked him back, "My requirements have never been high. I am content with what I have. I wonder what makes you misunderstand me so much?"
Ci Yuan actually taught earnestly, "Women should be kind to themselves and have higher demands on others, especially their significant other."
His understanding of women reminded me of a name, "This... isn't it Xuan'er who told you?"
"Yes, but are you sure you want to mention her?" Ci Yuan's tone was still gentle, "I remember you said before that you won't mention anyone."
I did ignore this question, "Yes, it's my fault. I broke my promise. I solemnly apologize to you. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Ci Yuan opened his mouth to tease people, "I am not angry, I am afraid that you will be angry. I was already stimulated by Shen Qingyang, and now I am mentioning this person."
I quickly changed the topic, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Thank you for comforting me. I feel much better now."
Ci Yuan laughed jokingly, "You are so coaxing that I don't have any sense of accomplishment. Those who don't know think you are asking for help from me."
I tested him half-jokingly and half-seriously, "I'm asking for something from you, because my happiness in this life is in your hands."
Since he is so good at teasing, he should be able to hear the hidden meaning, right? Whether I can make him fall in love with me depends on whether he gives me a chance.
"I will try my best to meet your requirements." Ci Yuan said this again. It was good the first time he heard it, but it seemed perfunctory after he heard it more.
This time, the little conch came into play again as a mobile phone. We chatted for a long time, and I actually felt a little bit like we were in love.
***
December twenty-four.
Under the impact of Western culture, this originally ordinary day became Christmas Eve.
The school is extremely lively today. Although there will be no holiday for Christmas, it cannot stop their desire to celebrate the holidays and give gifts.
I had no interest in this kind of foreign festival, so I was about to go home after class, but when I walked out of the classroom, I was stopped by a boy holding flowers.
He is the brother of my former roommate, his name is Xu Heng. He is in the same school as me and in a different college. On the first day of school, he accompanied my roommate to register.
At that time, I happened to be accompanied by Shen Qingyang to sign up, so the two brothers asked each other's sister to take care of them. The scene was a bit funny.
In order for me to inform my roommate in time when something happened, he added my contact information and we have kept in touch ever since.
Because they are not locals, he would come to pick up my roommates on weekends to go out, and sometimes he would also date Shen Qingyang and me.
But I don’t know him very well, and I never thought that he would actually give me roses in public.
Naturally, I was the first to suspect my roommate and asked her awkwardly, "What's going on?"
The roommate quickly explained, "I don't know. I swear to God I didn't betray you. He asked me where I went to class and I told him."
Xu Heng also clarified, "I didn't mention you, and she didn't know I was coming to see you. She thought I was coming to pick her up for Christmas Eve dinner."
My roommate blinked at me and said, "Qingluan, my brother is very nice, and there will definitely be no conflicts if we become sisters-in-law. That would be great."
During get out of class time, there were many classmates coming and going, and Xu Heng was holding flowers so conspicuously that I felt so embarrassed that I wanted to dig a hole and crawl in.
My face felt hot, "Ahem... let's talk somewhere else. Standing here will disturb other students' passing."
Our roommate wisely left us some private space, "Then you go with my brother, I have to go back to the dormitory to put away books."
As she spoke, she blended into the crowd, and I hurriedly left here, at least out of this teaching building.
The moment I walked out of the teaching building, I was so frightened that I staggered and almost fell to the ground, but Xu Heng caught me in time.
I was very grateful to him when he pulled me, but after he pulled me, he pulled me into his arms, which excused my inability to accept it.
I glanced at Ci Yuan not far away and felt a little panicked. He was obviously looking for me, but I was with another man.
But didn't he go to find someone who could detoxify him? Why did he suddenly come back and come directly to the school? Could it be that something happened?
I immediately withdrew from Xu Heng's arms, "Thank you. If you want to give this flower to me, then I can't accept it because I am no longer single."
Xu Heng was surprised and disappointed, "You already have a boyfriend?"
I used the same excuse as last time, "No, to be precise, it's my fiancé, a long-term family friend. I only found out about it not long ago."
Xu Heng's mood obviously dropped, "Then do you like him?"
I looked at Ci Yuan, who was already close at hand, and nodded solemnly, "I feel pretty good, mainly because my family is very optimistic about it. I'm sorry."
Xu Heng seemed to have given up, "Then... I wish you happiness."
I smiled and accepted, "I also wish you find the one who belongs to you soon."
Xu Heng soon left dejectedly with the flowers in his arms. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and faced Ci Yuan's scrutinizing eyes.
As I walked, I asked him in a low voice, "Why are you here suddenly? Has the poison been cured?"
Ci Yuan walked beside me, "That person didn't even know what this poison was, so I came back. I originally went to your house."
I explained uneasily, "The brother who was my roommate just now, he probably wanted to confess, but I refused, please don't cause trouble for him, okay?"
Ci Yuan spoke lightly and had no expression, making it difficult to see his emotions. "I heard it all. It seems that today is indeed a good day."
