A secret tryst? Her brotherly love triangle backfired.

Chapter 169 'Strong and Vigorous'...

He was just fooling himself with those words.

Fu Jingbai scoffed: "You've really given up. What are you doing coming here one after another today?"

Normally, people who rarely appear on this side of the playground even in a whole semester have come three times today, braving the blazing sun.

That's all? They're just fooling themselves.

Jiang Yanzhi remained silent.

Fu Jingbai asked with a smile, "With her small frame, aren't you worried she'll get heatstroke later?"

“There’s nothing to worry about,” Jiang Yanzhi said. “She’s an adult and knows what she’s doing with her health.”

have to.

He's just being stubborn.

While the sweet romance between the brothers is certainly regrettable, Fu Jingbai is actually quite happy in her current state.

He has company now.

Just standing at attention had completely shattered Tang Wanwan's fascination with military training.

I finally made it through the first day.

After the queue was disbanded, I felt like collapsing to the ground.

Because of what happened yesterday, whether it was one of her roommates who told Fu Jingbai, or whether all three of them were bribed by him, Qian Qinglei, who had just moved into the dormitory, developed a rift with the other roommates.

For dinner, Tang Wanwan didn't eat with her roommates, but instead went to keep her company.

In the cafeteria, she received her first phone call of the day.

It belongs to Shen Xianyu.

After finishing her meal, she waved goodbye to Qian Qinglei and went to meet him.

Shen Xianyu lowered his eyes and saw that she looked listless and obviously exhausted. He said, "If you're tired, don't continue tomorrow."

“No way,” Tang Wanwan shook her head. “Everyone else is persevering. I’m strong and healthy. How can I give up after just one day?”

'Strong and robust'...

Shen Xianyu almost laughed out loud.

He reached out and pinched her cheek, saying irritably, "I was worried you'd collapse on the playground this afternoon."

Tang Wanwan asked in surprise, "You came this afternoon too?"

She was so hot and drowsy in the afternoon that she had no time to pay attention to anything else.

Shen Xianyu sighed softly, "I'm worried about you if I don't go."

He asked, "Are you really planning to go again tomorrow?"

“Of course,” Tang Wanwan said, not backing down, “I will persist until I really can’t persist any longer.”

“…Fine,” Shen Xianyu said, unable to persuade him further, and had no other choice.

He reached out and handed over the bag in his hand, inside which was a brand new set of military training uniform.

"Take your clothes home and wash them. I'll bring them to you tomorrow."

She has never washed clothes.

The clothes she was wearing were all custom-made for her by the Tang family, and the materials used were very exquisite. This military training uniform was probably made of the coarsest material she had ever worn in recent years.

It's only because my health has improved a lot now, otherwise, with my delicate skin, I might have developed an allergic reaction.

As for the washing machine?
Shen Xianyu had never considered that option.

Tang Wanwan fell silent.

She never expected that he would contact her to wash her dirty clothes.

How could anyone be so thoughtful?

She blinked, feeling a little tempted but also somewhat embarrassed.

She said hesitantly, "I can wash it myself."

Shen Xianyu glanced at her, grabbed her wrist, and placed it in front of her, making her look at her distinct, delicate, and fair fingers, saying, "These hands of yours should be used for writing, painting, and playing the piano, not for burying your head in washing clothes."

Tang Wanwan: "...Oh."

She was completely convinced. "Then I'll go upstairs and take a shower."

Speaking of taking a bath...

Shen Xianyu certainly knew what the student bathroom situation was like at University A.

He imagined it for a moment, then frowned and said, "It must be packed with people right now, some lines are already formed. Come back with me to shower?"

This time, Tang Wanwan refused.

I insist on washing my hands at school.

Shen Xianyu had no choice but to let her go. He said, "I'll wait for you here."

Tang Wanwan left at just seven o'clock.

When I returned, it was already 8:30.

It took her a full hour and a half, even though she was rushing.

Her hair was still wet, and she was carrying a bag of dirty clothes. She had washed her underwear herself, but she still specifically told them, "Just throw them in the washing machine, don't wash them by hand."

Shen Xianyu glanced at her, and instead of answering, asked, "Is there a hairdryer in the dorm?"

“Yes,” Tang Wanwan said, “I’ll blow-dry my hair when I get back, so don’t nag me.”

The voice possesses a familiarity that no one else has ever experienced.

Shen Xianyu smiled, took the bag from her hand, and finally said what he had been holding back all day: "Now that you've broken up with him, can you keep your promise to me?"

She said it.

Even after breaking up with Jiang Yanzhi, she would still be his girlfriend as long as his feelings for her remained unchanged.

Tang Wanwan's eyes widened suddenly, then she turned her face away in a panic, "You know?"

“Yes,” Shen Xianyu said with a smile, “I found out this afternoon.”

God knows how happy he was.

It must have come from Fu Jingbai!
Tang Wanwan clutched the hem of her clothes, unsure how to tell him that she was still planning to win Jiang Yanzhi back.

She will be entangled with Jiang Yanzhi for a long time; it's not something that can be completely severed just by saying goodbye.

Seeing her troubled expression and hesitant manner, Shen Xianyu knew everything.

The smile on his lips slowly faded. "Isn't that enough?"

Tang Wanwan nodded gently and hummed in agreement.

Silence reigned all around.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Xianyu reached out and put his arm around her shoulder.

“Okay,” he said softly, “then I’ll keep waiting. Let me know when it’s ready, okay?”

"..." Tang Wanwan felt a pang of sadness and continued to nod.

Under the cover of night, Shen Xianyu held her motionless for a long time before slowly releasing his arms.

"Go back and get some rest."

…………

As soon as she entered the dormitory, Song Xiaotong waved to her, "Where have you been? I haven't seen you in so long, come and see me!"

She handed me her phone and said, "Look, you've logged onto the school forum."

On the phone screen was a photo of Tang Wanwan.

Wearing her military training uniform and standing under the scorching sun, the image quality was exceptionally clear, revealing the sweat on her face and her flushed cheeks; she actually looked somewhat disheveled.

Even her disheveled appearance, when placed on her, becomes a kind of beauty.

Tang Wanwan glanced at it and slid her finger down.

Below the post, there was a wave of amazement...

Many people started asking for her identity information.

Soon, her information appeared.

Their names, majors, which building they live in, and which city they came from—everything is crystal clear.

Gao Siyao chuckled, "I knew it, gold shines wherever it is."

Tang Wanwan sighed, remembering that he was also a liberal arts student.

Is this how you use this phrase?

"And another thing, I know who that handsome guy who delivered the milk tea this morning was."

Song Xiaotong quickly fiddled with her phone, continuing to scroll down, but the screen froze for a moment, and the next second, a message appeared indicating that the post had been deleted.

"what happened?"

This is a normal post about new students; there are no violations.

The group exchanged glances, finally looking at Tang Wanwan.

Tang Wanwan gently shook her head, "I don't know, I didn't delete it."

She had already finished washing up and was climbing into bed when she said, "I'm tired, let's go to sleep early."

The conversation abruptly ended halfway through, leaving Song Xiaotong somewhat unsatisfied.

She muttered, "The senior who delivered the milk tea today is surnamed Gu. I heard he's quite influential. There are also a few of his friends who are all quite handsome. There are even photos of them in the post."
