Section 5

The moment the door opened, Chunyuan had already cupped her face, his lips pressing perfectly against hers.

After waiting for most of the class to end, she finally rubbed her eyes and got up, packed her bag, and turned around to find An Yang Chun Yuan resting his chin on his hand, looking in her direction. Ju Geng glanced around to confirm that no one was beside her, realizing he was indeed looking at her, and could only offer him a somewhat shy smile.

I originally had classes, but next month the drama club has a large performance. I am working on the planning document at home, and I estimate that the professor will not take attendance in the next few days.

So fast

Chun Yuan innocently spread his hands and took a can of beer from the refrigerator, tossing it to him. The phone rang, and he hurried into the bedroom to answer it. Taking this opportunity, Ju Geng began to scrutinize the big boy in front of him, whose smile had completely vanished.

"It's nothing, just a stomachache," she said

Chun Yuan pushed up his glasses and smiled faintly, then walked over a few steps and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Indeed, both Chun Yuan and I cannot tolerate living in a communal dormitory. He is particular about cleanliness and tranquility, while I often have to stay up all night to get work done

I know. Chunyuan turned his head, revealing his white teeth, and his smile was exceptionally bright, "This is the way to my home."

Hmm, I have a bit of a stomachache. It turns out that lying to *the* book is also a kind of habit

Ah, what will happen if attendance is taken? Aren't you being a bit too bold?

The legendary student council president, Li Kong, is like a glacier that has never melted, a bone-chilling ice mountain, also known as the Ice Sculpture President. Ju Geng has seen him command others countless times, always with a ruthless and decisive demeanor. Seeing him smile so warmly, she momentarily forgot her original intention and simply looked at him with curiosity, eventually smiling and saying: "So An Yang Chun Yuan lives with Senior Li Kong."

The number of words she has exchanged with him can be counted on both hands, and although they have been classmates for a year, she knows almost nothing about him

"I didn't take this car home." The orange stem reacted a beat too slowly

Well, the informant has reported that she has arrived downstairs

Chun Yuan and Li Kong exchanged a glance. Before entering the room, Li Kong threw a look of self-preservation at Ju Geng. Ju Geng found it strange; when she saw An Yang Chun Yuan come over and sit beside her, he leaned down and wrapped his arm around her shoulder. She was taken aback, her mind momentarily slowed, and before she could resist, she heard the sound of a key turning in the lock at the door.

In the classroom, she saw him walk in with his head down, holding a textbook, his fine black hair and the cold eyes hidden behind the lenses. He sat by the window, resting his chin on his hand, lost in thought. Ju Jing recalled what he had said, that there would be plenty of opportunities in the future. Yet, she felt it was distant, and that dream was ominous. Throughout the entire class, she absorbed nothing, continuously resting her head on the desk and biting the back of her hand, fearing that if she let her guard down, she would burst into tears.

Ju Jing quickly realized that she had inexplicably entered the home of a rogue, and the current situation was that a solitary man and woman were in the same room. An Yang Chun Yuan, with a half-smile, was looking at her while rummaging through his pockets, making her feel uneasy and wanting to scream and rush out the door. What on earth was this situation? All those chaotic things, as taught in novels, advised never to go home with strangers

"No." Chunyuan went to the refrigerator to get a drink, thought for a moment, and then put it back, saying, "I might as well drink some hot water." He went to the kitchen to pour boiling water and saw Jujing still standing in place, looking around the house with a reserved demeanor. Unconsciously smiling, he pointed to the sofa and said, "Please sit, don't be polite. Or, would you like to lie down in the bedroom for a while?"

"You are really ... ..." Ju Jing blushed deeply, seriously searching for an adjective, "Really ... ... rogue ... ..."

Li Kong pointed at her nose, laughing uncontrollably, tears nearly streaming down her face, even clutching her stomach and exclaiming: "Oh dear, I can't take it anymore, Chun Yuan, you devil, look at what you've done to her! This is killing me with laughter! Ye Ju Geng was wrong, you are not a rogue, you are a devil, absolutely a great devil!"

No matter how she thought about it, Ju Geng felt that her relationship with An Yang Chunyuan was not good enough to the point where they could visit each other's homes. She sat on the sofa and gulped down a few mouthfuls of water, contemplating simply saying goodbye and going home. Before she could even speak, she heard an earth-shattering burst of laughter beside her ear. One of her nerves was startled to the breaking point.

Chun Yuan did not respond further and took out an English novel to read intently. From the reflection in the glass, he saw Ju Geng looking as if he wanted to ask something but dared not. His expression was one of restlessness, distress, and suspicion. Chun Yuan found it amusing and lowered his head, a vague laugh escaping his throat. Ju Geng looked at him nervously and resentfully, then simply turned his head to the other side, sulking.

So, does Anyang Chunyuan count as a stranger

Ah? She was taken aback

"You are quite bold, casually going home with a stranger male classmate," Li Kong said with a click of his tongue. "Don't blame your senior for not reminding you, if you want to be friends with An Yangchun Yuan, you must have a heart that sees through the mundane world"

Indeed, he is nothing short of a rogue

"Ye Jujing, are you alright?" a classmate sitting beside her asked

"Do you live alone?" she asked

Last night, I had a dream that was quite simple. In the haze, there was a tall figure, and the voice was very gentle. Two people were waiting for the bus together in front of a bus stop, seemingly having agreed to go to the same place. The atmosphere was relaxed and natural. I could almost smell the fragrance of the locust flowers falling from the roadside; it was early summer, and the rain was falling leisurely. Under the eaves, there were only the two of them, discussing which stall by the roadside had the best takoyaki.

So that's how it is, didn't you have class today, senior

They did not wait for the bus, and she woke up, faintly feeling sad, sensing that they would never be able to reach that place in their lifetime

An Yang Chunyuan lives in a residential community from the 1990s, where green vines climb the red walls, and the sound of leaves singing can be heard when the wind blows. He resides on the sixth floor, and although the orange vine climbs with difficulty, he calmly opens the door and instructs her to change into slippers. It is an old-style two-bedroom apartment; the living room has poor lighting, yet it is very clean and tidy, indicating that the owner has high standards for hygiene.

"Actually, it doesn't hurt that much..." Ju Geng wanted to refuse, but seeing the determined demeanor of the person standing in front of him, his shoulders slumped, looking at him with eager eyes like a dog trying to please its owner. "It really doesn't hurt anymore, can I just go home?"

Why

Because—" Li Kong suddenly said seriously, "he is just a frozen snake; if you hold him in your arms, he will wake up and bite you without hesitation.

Li Kong's gaze was serious and complex; she could not understand, yet felt that the topic had suddenly become somewhat grave, so she pretended to be foolish and lowered her head to drink water. At that moment, Chun Yuan came out of the bedroom, and Li Kong returned to her usual playful demeanor, going up to wrap her arms around his neck and asking, "Whose phone call was it?"

"Then you shouldn't go to the next class. Go to the infirmary to get some medicine and then rest at home," said the boy in front of me, his tone leaving no room for refusal. "I will accompany you."

Chun Yuan helped her with her backpack, while Ju Geng kept nervously tugging at the hem of her clothes, yet there was also a hint of reluctant compliance in her demeanor. In fact, even without Li Kong's reminder, Chun Yuan could sense that the child in front of him harbored feelings that transcended mere friendship. He said nothing and waited for the bus at the bus stop, heading to Huai. As soon as the mountain road bus arrived, he pulled her onto the vehicle.
