But it did, as we arrived below the girl’s dorm soon after. I gazed at Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue as they went upstairs.
I raised my head and stared at the room of the very floor, of the building that they slept in. I knew I didn’t belong here; I was just a passerby. But deep down in my heart, I wished I could stand here much longer and be by her side. I hoped I could stop wandering and wait for her here everyday; even if she is the daughter of the Tian Xin group CEO and I am just a worthless young man.
I stood downstairs for nearly ten minutes. Suddenly, Wan Er’s dorm room curtains opened, and she stood there gazing at me who was downstairs.
“Di!”
My phone rang; it was a message that said, “Why aren’t you going back yet?”
I stared dumbly at my phone. I didn’t know how to respond. As I raised my head and looked back upstairs, I saw Wan Er standing cheerfully with her hands on her knees beside the floor-to-ceiling window. She then started to make a mock angry motion at me. As her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, she suddenly puckered her lips and kissed the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window.
“Di!”
My phone rang again, “Okay. Are you satisfied now? Now go to sleep. Idiot……”
Even I became a bit embarrassed. I lowered my head and then lifted it up once more as I glanced at her again. I then replied to her message, “I am going back then.”
“Okay.”
I left reluctantly. My feet felt unusually heavy, like they were filled with lead, unwilling to leave this spot.
……
Early the next morning, rain fell gently upon the school.
Holding a pile of textbooks and an umbrella, I arrived under the girl’s dorm to fetch Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue. There was compulsory class this morning. Without the audacity to skip the class, I could only suffer through the morning. It was an early autumn morning and the light rain gave a lonely feeling. Wan Er wore a short skirt, brown shoes and held her books as she rushed downstairs with a smile. She held my arms and hid under my umbrella.
Dong Cheng Yue walked toward us with an umbrella. Slightly shocked, she asked, “Why…… Why am I holding an umbrella all by myself?”
I replied, “This umbrella only has room for two people, so be quiet…… ”
Dong Cheng Yue tilted her head and looked at Wan Er, laughing dryly she commented “I see someone’s finally succeeded, isn’t that right?”
Lin Wan Er tidied her books and responded in surprise, “What could you possibly be talking about? How come I don’t get what you mean?”
“Humph. You keep pretending!”
“Tee hee! ”
After breakfast, we went straight to the classroom. Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue listened to the teacher, while I earnestly copied their homework. Dong Cheng Yue stretched her neck and looked at me. “Hey. If you keep copying like this, aren’t you afraid that Wan Er and I would make mistakes in our homework?”
I took a deep breath and replied, “The basic principle of copying homework is to never doubt whether it’s right or wrong!”
“You truly have potential……”
After struggling for a whole morning, the class finally ended. After lunch, I returned to my dorm and went online.
……
“Shua! ”
My character appeared in Ba Huang City. I speedily went to repair all my equipment and replenished my potions. “Yes, there’s nothing else left on my schedule.” I thought to myself before proceeding to rush my Lv 8 alchemy. But, before I even left the city, I heard someone yell loudly, “Level 8 alchemy herbs Eye-Catching Grass! a batch of 100 for only 20G!
