Chapter 155: Book: Qiao Rui Xuyi (7)

Chapter 155

Xu Yi was almost melting away, couldn't help but stroked his hair, "I'll send you a WeChat message when I get back, okay?"

"Okay." Qiao Rui hugged her even tighter, "I feel like I'm going crazy. I've been dreaming about you recently, always dreaming that you don't want me anymore."

Xu Yi: ?

She smiled helplessly: "Is this still the usual confident Qiao Rui?"

"Because I like you too much," he said very seriously and straightforwardly, "I'm afraid, anything that upsets you, then you won't like me anymore."

Fang Chuning was right, active and cheerful guys like Qiao Rui were indeed the most popular among university students.

Guys of this age, recklessly sweating on the sports field, were indeed very attractive.

Ever since military training began, he had been a popular figure, with many people trying to get close to him.

But he had never cared about them, never.

He was wholeheartedly devoted to Xu Yi, although he was very busy with university life, he would always squeeze out time, even if it was just half an hour, to accompany her.

Xu Yi had always been a good girl, a "someone else's child". She also always lived according to her parents' plans, feeling somewhat empty inside, as if she couldn't find the real herself, and lacked a sense of security.

Qiao Rui's appearance happened to fill the gap in her heart.

She could only be herself in front of him.

Qiao Rui would pamper her, indulge her, accompany her. She felt that she was being needed by someone.

Her lips touched his earlobe, the girl's voice was soft and gentle: "I've liked you for so long, how could I possibly say I don't like you anymore?"

She liked it so much that whenever she saw online posts saying that their zodiac signs matched very well, she would be happy for a long time.

Qiao Rui was Scorpio, and Xu Yi was Cancer.

...

His birthday was in late November.

Xu Yi had seen a lot of Lego sets in Qiao Rui's home when they studied together at Yun Gulf Mansion. He must really like them.

So, she used the money she had saved up and bought a Lego set for Qiao Rui.

On his birthday, both Qiao Rui and Xu Yi had full day classes, so they didn't see each other during the day.

In the evening, Qiao Rui wanted to take Xu Yi out to dinner with his roommates.

But Xu Yi made up an excuse that she hadn't finished her PPT yet, and that she was with her friends, so he should go eat with his roommates first.

No matter how clingy Qiao Rui was usually, he wouldn't disturb her studies. He only reminded her a few times, saying he would come to find her after dinner.

After class, Xu Yi went to the cake shop she had booked and personally baked a simple cake for Qiao Rui.

She left the cake at the shop, went back to the dormitory, took the Lego set, picked up the cake from the shop, then walked to the basketball court in Xingfu Li community holding the Lego set in one hand and the cake in the other.

This community was an old community, very close to the east gate of G University.

Once when Xu Yi was taking a walk with Qiao Rui, they passed by this place. She noticed that this community was strangely quiet at night, and the basketball court didn't have a single person.

She went back several times after that, confirming that no one would be here at night.

So she decided to give Qiao Rui another private birthday celebration here.

Xu Yi timed it well, and was just about to send Qiao Rui a WeChat message, but found that he had sent her two messages two minutes earlier:

After a long time, Qiao Rui finally released her a little, but still held her lips in his, and slowly continued the topic from earlier, "My wish is to take you to meet my family this winter break."

Xu Yi's breathing became heavier. Her blank mind sobered up at his words, "Meet your family?"

"Yeah, take you to meet my dad, mom, grandpa, grandma, and my brother and sister-in-law. Although you already know my brother and sister-in-law, this time it's not as my deskmate, but-" He stroked her face, "as my girlfriend."

...

It wasn't too busy in the first semester of freshman year. Although Qiao Rui and Xu Yi were not at the same university, they met even more often than couples at the same school.

Even Su Ling was envious. She complained in the dormitory once, "So annoying. My boyfriend always says he's busy and doesn't come to see me. We're at the same school, I don't believe he doesn't even have time to see me when he's busy. Look at Qiao Rui, he's from another school, yet he comes to see Xu Yi every day. Busy? It's just an excuse!"

Xu Yi didn't know how to comfort her.

Because Qiao Rui did make her feel that they were not at different schools at all.

Soon it was winter break.

Xu Yi finished school earlier than Qiao Rui by a few days. She stayed at the dorm by herself, waiting for Qiao Rui to finish school, then they would go back to Changwan together.

The flight was at 4pm.

After Qiao Rui finished packing, he went to G University to pick up Xu Yi.

He took Xu Yi's suitcase, called a taxi to the airport, checked in, then waited at the departure lounge.

Xu Yi was wearing very little. Qiao Rui took off his jacket and put it on her. Seeing there was a coffee shop not far away, he said, "Wait here for me, I'll go buy you a hot drink."

"Okay."

Qiao Rui bought her a hot chocolate.

Xu Yi leaned on his shoulder, took a sip, and suddenly said, "It's so sweet."

"Is it?" Qiao Rui took it and also took a sip, "It's normal sweetness for hot chocolate."

"But this hot chocolate is sweeter than any I've had before." Xu Yi rarely spoke sweet words, "Because you bought it, so it's very sweet."

Qiao Rui: ?

Since when did she become so smooth?

He couldn't control the upward curve of his lips. While she was drinking, he took the opportunity and kissed her on the cheek.

Qiao Rui had actually changed quite a bit.

Before meeting Xu Yi, he was carefree, but also a warm-hearted man who liked helping people and treating everyone well.

Many girls confessed to him, and he also received many love letters, but he rejected them all in a very tactful way.

He never dragged things out or gave anyone false hope.

He had many friends and was popular. It seemed he could bring light to everyone around him.

But after meeting Xu Yi, he drew all that light back and focused it on the very core of his own heart.

So in Xu Yi's world, there was light everywhere.

And that light was his ardent, unreserved love.
