“Yeah……” Wan Er answered with a soft smile.
Tang Qi’s face turned ashen, “Why do I feel as if I am really unnecessary here? I have a feeling that I have already become the back-up plan. I……I suddenly miss my hometown……”
Wan Er glanced at him and said, “You only understand that now? Too late……the people of Sichuan won’t miss you….”
Tang Qi was speechless as tears flowed, “I have a feeling that the whole world has abandoned me. Allow me to go wipe my tears. You guys eat first……”
……
It was already very late by the time we finished the late-night snacks. After sending the two ladies back to the girl’s dorm, I went back to the boy’s dorm with Tang Qi. As we were walking on the small pathway through campus, he seemed to have something to say, but hesitated a few times.
I couldn’t help but ask, “What do you want to say? Just come out with it.”
Tang Qi coughed, “Xiao Yao, I would like to ask how you manage to……to get Wan Er to like you so much and yet not feel jealous when Dong Cheng also likes you very much?”
I paused for a moment and answered softly, “I didn’t do anything intentionally. I know it’s not that Wan Er doesn’t get jealous but that she just withholds herself from saying anything. Therefore, I shall act appropriately. I only have Wan Er alone in my heart and I won’t give a response to Dong Cheng. I, Li Xiao Yao, have a small heart that can only keep one person with no space for another.”
“Then…….” Tang Qi asked, “can I pursue Dong Cheng?”
I casted a glance at him and said, “As long as Dong Cheng is happy, you can do whatever you want. However, if you ever make her unhappy, I will beat you up!”
“Okay, alright……”
……
I returned to the dorm and slept until the next morning. The next day, I hastily ate my lunch after class and went online to prepare for the City War!
