Chapter 124 College Entrance Examination

Time flies, and soon it will be time for the exam.

Xiao Ling'er and Sheng'er were picked up by Ms. Qin Yan, and Leng Yunting also took a day off to send Liu Jingyi to the examination hall.

Chen Xingjie already knew about Liu Jingyi being taken away by Leng Yunting on the same day.

He went to great lengths to avoid being discovered by Leng Yunting after returning from Yuncheng.

Chen Xingjie was present when Liu Jingyi gave birth, but he didn't show up until Liu Jingyi was safe and everything was arranged for her before he left.

Chen Xingjie put on makeup and even found someone who looked like him to impersonate him, which allowed him to evade Leng Yunting's eyes and ears.

He did everything he could, but he never imagined that he would ultimately be unable to defy fate.

He couldn't enter the military region; even though he staked out the entrance every day, he still couldn't get a glimpse of it.

However, he knew that Liu Jingyi was going to take an exam, so he went to all the major exam venues in the city that day.

Chen Xingjie's patience is chilling.

I go to the compound every day, just to see her once.

Now we're finding all these exam venues one by one.

He showed absolutely no impatience.

On the last day of the exam, he finally met Liu Jingyi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, at the examination hall of the Normal University.

Liu Jingyi believed in herself; having endured the beatings of the future, how could she be worried at this moment?

The number of books read and problems solved by later generations is countless.

But after these few days of exams, she still underestimated the wisdom of people in this era.

Of course, she still has confidence in herself.

Clutching her books, she walked out of the examination hall with a sense of relief.

There were many family members at the main gate, and because of the large number of people, the police were there to maintain order.

Leng Yunting had told her that he would be waiting for her at the door, and that she shouldn't rush and should come out slowly.

She lagged behind the crowd, quite a distance from the main group.

"Yiyi."

Liu Jingyi suddenly heard someone calling her. She thought it was Leng Yunting, but when she looked up, she froze on the spot.

Chen Xingjie stood not far away, wearing a white shirt, the afterglow of the setting sun lengthening his shadow.

He remained as composed as ever, a gentle smile playing on his lips as he looked at her tenderly.

He stood there, exuding a friendly demeanor, without any hint of aggression.

However, Liu Jingyi felt that it wasn't like that.

He possessed a cool and aloof quality that seemed to emanate from his very bones, but this coolness was only revealed to those who were important to him.

Clearly, Liu Jingyi is the most important person to him.

Liu Jingyi was actually grateful to him; he had given her warmth during her most difficult days.

But she also understood that he didn't love her, but rather the woman he loved before.

The original owner who has already disappeared.

She didn't know how to explain it to him, since it was something that most people couldn't understand.

Liu Jingyi watched the man walk towards her step by step, but he was very tactful and did not get too close to her; there was still some distance between them.

"Yiyi, what a coincidence!"

Chen Xingjie said it so casually, as if it were something he had really seen by chance.

Knowing that Leng Yunting was nearby, Liu Jingyi subconsciously took two steps back.

Chen Xingjie watched her subconscious movements without showing any unusual reaction. On the surface, he was perfectly composed, but anyone who knew him could clearly sense that he was different.

"Brother Xingjie".

Liu Jingyi called him that openly and generously, as if she really regarded him as her older brother.

Liu Jingyi felt guilty towards him; she didn't know how to face such a heavy love.

She had once thought that if he had appeared sooner, things might be different now.

Of course, this is just a thought.

However, she felt that liking someone doesn't have a specific order; she might be captivated by his gentleness, but that might be all.

"Are you alright? Did he give you any trouble?" Chen Xingjie asked, as if he were an older brother.

Liu Jingyi nodded, "It's fine, no."

"Brother Xingjie, I still want to thank you for taking care of me during that time."

Even though Chen Xingjie didn't reappear, she knew he had played a part in her success, given how smoothly things went for her.

"I'm the older brother, and you're the younger sister. It's only right that I take care of you!" Chen Xingjie said, and then reached out to ruffle her hair.

Liu Jingyi seemed to have anticipated his move, and turned her head to avoid it.

Chen Xingjie's hand froze in mid-air, his eyes unconsciously turning cold, though only for a moment.

He didn't feel embarrassed and naturally withdrew his hand.

Liu Jingyi suddenly felt that she was like a scumbag woman from a later era.

She knew his feelings for her, but she pretended not to know and enjoyed his care.

She knew she should have made things clear to him sooner, but a voice inside her told her not to.

"Let's go, I'll take you back." Chen Xingjie had barely finished speaking when Leng Yunting walked over.

He had already seen that familiar figure standing in front of Liu Jingyi.

Leng Yunting was still as irritable as ever, but in a way, he still had to thank him.

Even though he didn't show up in Yuncheng, he knew that it was behind the scenes that he had smoothed things over for Liu Jingyi.

Furthermore, he wouldn't want to cause trouble with her again because of Chen Xingjie.

He has already caused trouble for Meng Yunfan several times because of him.

If he makes another scene, Leng Yunting believes he will truly lose Liu Jingyi forever.

Moreover, Liu Jingyi said that she didn't like him.

Now he believes everything Liu Jingyi says.

Leng Yunting was dressed casually today, and strode towards Liu Jingyi and the other woman.

Under Chen Xingjie's gaze, he naturally put his arm around Liu Jingyi's shoulder.

Leng Yunting's calm yet chilling gaze was fixed on Chen Xingjie.

He's really something else. Leng Yunting had already arranged for Liu Jingyi to take the exam in a remote location, but he still managed to find her.

"Comrade Chen, what a coincidence. I still want to thank you for taking care of Yiyi during that time," Leng Yunting said politely.

"No need. It's only right for an older brother to take care of his younger sister. Of course, I'm sure Comrade Leng won't make any more foolish impulses in the future, otherwise, she wouldn't be so lucky as she was this time."

"Right, Comrade Leng!" Chen Xingjie said provocatively.

Leng Yunting's face darkened considerably, but only for a moment.

"Comrade Chen, you're overthinking it. I was originally planning to treat you to a meal, but as you know, I have two children waiting for Yiyi at home!"

Leng Yunting turned to Liu Jingyi and said, "Yiyi, another day, let's treat Comrade Chen to a meal together to properly thank him for taking care of you in Yuncheng."
