Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Let's Go Traveling After the Exam

Xie Xiao's Adam's apple bobbed, "Is it what I'm thinking?"However, Luo Yanran didn't answer him. She just sat down, took a sip of water, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"After the exam..." Xie Xiao stared straight at her, then whispered, "Ah, to think the exam is tomorrow."

Luo Yanran couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, "What's the rush..."

"It's urgent, let's go on a trip after the exam," Xie Xiao blurted out, "Just us."

Luo Yanran was stunned for a moment, "Just the two of us?"

Suddenly, Xie Xiao realized, would it make Teacher Luo feel like he had impure motives?

Alone with a young lady, although he admittedly had some impure intentions.

But would that be too obvious?

He hesitated and added, "Of course not, we could ask Lin Yu and Liu Ou if they want to join, what do you think?"

Luo Yanran seemed quite interested, "Sure, I'll find a chance to ask Hai Ou, or maybe we could ask next week when we go out to eat..." Continue your saga on mvl

The topic naturally shifted.

Although Xie Xiao's thoughts were a bit skewed at first, he really became upright later on.

He had no choice; Little Teacher Luo made good on her word. She danced, and it was quite beautiful.

It was just different from what Xie Xiao had imagined.

To say he wasn't disappointed would be a lie, but he wasn't truly very disappointed either.

Seeing a different side of Luo Yanran was worth it; especially since she also agreed to dance after the college entrance exam, a live version indeed! What a temptation!

So Xie Xiao quickly got over his feeling of loss.

Luo Yanran rested her chin on her hands, watching Xie Xiao as he rifled through exam papers.

The young man was really very clean, just like she always liked.

She knew what Xie Xiao was thinking, but she wanted to go further with him, to have a future with him.

Because of this, Luo Yanran, who had always been lenient and free of limits with Xie Xiao, was really ruthless lately, even refusing their nightly video calls for homework.

She was afraid both of them would get distracted.

Just over a month left, they had more potential and time ahead.

Luo Yanran's eyes softened.

It had indeed been a long time since she had danced, but dancing again for Xie Xiao didn't seem so difficult...

The next day was Saturday, and unusually, Xie Xiao did not have a date with Luo Yanran.

Little Teacher Luo's parents were back, and she said she needed to stay at home.

Speaking of which, Xie Xiao had never met Luo Yanran's parents, not in his past life, and it seemed he hadn't encountered them in this life either when he dropped her off.

Little Teacher Luo rarely mentioned them, and Xie Xiao realized that perhaps he still knew too little about Luo Yanran.

At noon, Lin Yu asked him if he wanted to go play basketball.

At this time of day, they could only play indoors.

Xie Xiao hadn't played basketball in a long time, so after arranging a time with Lin Yu and eating lunch, he headed out.

Xie Qingxiao also asked, "Will you come back for dinner?"

"No! I'll go eat at Lin Yu's place. Go play your chess," Xie Xiao said with a hint of resignation.

Xie Qingxiao was delighted, "Go ahead then."

When Xie Xiao arrived, Lin Yu and a few others they used to play basketball with were already there. Li Hua, who rarely played basketball, also came to join the fun, saying, "Need to clear my mind. It's all crammed with studies, I've gone mad!"

He didn't play, just sat on the side and played with his phone while keeping an eye on their belongings. Sёarᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Xie Xiao and the others didn't mind, they went ahead and played half a game, coming off the court drenched in sweat.

Several people walked over to drink water. As Xie Xiao was about to take out his phone to check for any messages from Luo Yanran, he heard Li Hua lower his voice and shout, "Hey, hey, hey, look over in the 8 o'clock direction!"

Xie Xiao ignored him.

It wasn't until Lin Yu bumped into him that Xie Xiao looked up.

He saw people playing basketball, "What's the matter?"

"Zhou Mianmian, second row, she's sitting with a guy," Li Hua whispered.

Mainly because that guy wasn't Yan Shi!

Xie Xiao looked up and indeed saw Zhou Mianmian.

She was wearing a T-shirt and a skirt, sitting next to a boy in a basketball uniform, their posture intimate. They were drinking from the same bottle of water, and Zhou Mianmian even reached out to wipe his sweat.

Each of these actions suggested that their relationship wasn't simple.

The people playing basketball with Xie Xiao today all went to the same school.

One of the boys from the class next door exclaimed, "No way? Isn't Zhou Mianmian paired up with Yan Shi from your class?"

Now, very few people still associated Zhou Mianmian with Xie Xiao.

After all, everyone in the school knew that Yan Shi had ended up in the hospital from a fight over Zhou Mianmian.

Li Hua gasped, "Damn, this scoop isn't bad at all."

Xie Xiao diverted his gaze, feeling not surprised at all. After all, Zhou Mianmian had quickly found a boyfriend last time even when he was paralyzed. Isn't Yan Shi now just a replica of his past self?

He had even warned Yan Shi before, but unfortunately, he hadn't listened to him.

Lin Yu put down his bottle of water, "Let's go. Are we still playing or just gossiping here every day?"

One of the guys took a few photos and probably really went off to gossip, "I'm here, I'm here."

Xie Xiao also put down his water, "Let's go."

Just as they reached the basketball hoop, Li Hua shouted, "Xie bro, your wife's calling!"

The basketball court was spacious, and despite the noise, Li Hua's voice was loud.

Zhou Mianmian suddenly turned her head to look over.

She saw Xie Xiao, dressed in a white basketball uniform, walking to the side to take the phone from Li Hua's hand.

The boys on the court shouted, "Dude! Xie bro, you said to hurry up, right?"

"Is your wife more important?" one of the boys chuckled.

Xie Xiao didn't turn back but flipped them off and then answered the call.

Zhou Mianmian could imagine Xie Xiao's expression without looking too closely; he was surely smiling tenderly.

She knew Xie Xiao too well...

"Mianmian?" A voice drew her attention back, and Zhou Mianmian turned to the boy next to her with a gentle smile, "Ah, I thought I saw a classmate. What were you saying?"

"Nothing, I was asking if you want to have dinner with us later, and then I can accompany you shopping. You were talking about a backpack you saw yesterday but didn't buy, right? I could go with you to check it out..." the boy said tenderly.

Zhou Mianmian nodded with a smile, "Sure..."

She didn't look back at Xie Xiao anymore, her eyes full of the boy beside her.

But her hand resting on her knee tightened slightly.

As for Xie Xiao, she really wasn't resigned, truly, very much not resigned.

Xie Xiao and Lin Yu played basketball until after five.

He declined eating with Li Hua and others, "Going to Lin Yu's home for a free meal."

"Then shall we come too?" Li Hua said with a smile, then contradicted himself, "No, it's troubling the grandmother, and I really want to eat at that barbecue buffet! You guys have to accompany me, let's go, Xie bro, Yu bro!"

Xie Xiao and Lin Yu waved goodbye to them.

Before leaving, Xie Xiao glanced in Zhou Mianmian's direction but met her gaze looking back.
