You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

The reason I put "learning" in quotation marks is because these two people's learning efficiency is on a completely different level.

After opening the course materials on her iPad, Su Qinghe immediately entered a super-study mode.

His eyes were fixed on the screen, and every now and then he would quickly jot down a few lines in his notebook.

After writing each paragraph, he would furrow his brow slightly, touch his lips with the tip of his pen, think for a moment, and then continue writing.

The focused look on her face as she immersed herself in the ocean of knowledge was so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

And what about Jiang Che?

He flipped through the brick-thick "Company Law" in less than ten minutes before closing it.

Forgive him, he simply couldn't bear to watch.

With such a beautiful woman by my side, I really have no heart for studying.

So after closing the book, Jiang Che was completely free.

Whenever he had a moment to himself, his gaze would involuntarily fall on Su Qinghe's face beside him.

Sunlight streamed in obliquely from the floor-to-ceiling window on her right, casting a soft, warm glow on her profile.

Her eyelashes were very long, and when they were lowered, they cast a small fan-shaped shadow on her eyelids.

At this moment, her beautiful eyes were intently scanning every word in the textbook, her lips were slightly pursed, and a wisp of hair on her forehead swayed gently with the occasional slight tilt of her head.

Sometimes, she would tilt her head slightly when she couldn't understand a certain concept, revealing a small section of her collarbone hidden behind the neckline of her white sweater.

Jiang Che became engrossed in watching without realizing it.

He liked seeing Su Qinghe when she was serious.

How come Su Qinghe looks even better when she's studying so diligently than usual?

Is it because the saying "A woman who is serious is the most beautiful" has a scientific basis?

Or is it simply because he's fallen hopelessly in love with her, so he finds everything she does pleasing to the eye?

It's most likely the latter.

So Jiang Che simply pushed the book aside, propped his chin up with one hand, and stared at Su Qinghe without any attempt to hide it.

A minute passed.

Su Qinghe's ears began to turn red.

Three minutes have passed.

Her fingers, which were holding the pen, stiffened slightly, and the characters she wrote were noticeably less neat than before.

Five minutes passed.

Su Qinghe finally couldn't take it anymore.

At this moment, her face was so hot it could fry an egg. Although her eyes were fixed on the screen, the models and formulas in her mind had long been turned into a mess by Jiang Che's gaze.

I can't concentrate on reading a single word.

Unable to bear it any longer, Su Qinghe could only kick Jiang Che's shin.

Jiang Che hissed in pain and looked down at his calf.

When he looked up again, he met Su Qinghe's almond-shaped eyes, which were filled with anger and resentment.

Her lips moved slightly, and she warned him in a whisper that only the two of them could hear: "Don't—look."

Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, his smile widening rather than diminishing.

He didn't speak, but instead reached out and tore off a corner of a sticky note from the table, then wrote a line of text.

He then quietly pushed the note next to Su Qinghe's notebook.

Su Qinghe, somewhat puzzled, leaned closer and glanced at the handwriting on the note—

"If you glare at me again, I'll kiss you right here."

Su Qinghe's face instantly turned bright red.

She subconsciously looked up and quickly scanned her surroundings. After confirming that no one was paying attention to her, she hurriedly crumpled the note into a ball in her hand.

Then he lowered his head and pretended to be reading the book seriously.

But the knowledge in his mind had long been scattered and fragmented by Jiang Che's bold words.

She can't concentrate on reading a single word right now.

If you glare at me again, I'll kiss you right here.

How can this person say such things?

This is a library! It would be so embarrassing if someone saw us like this...

But then again, will he really do it?

I think so.

This person is incredibly bold; what wouldn't he do?

Su Qinghe bit the pen handle, her thoughts already drifting to the ends of the earth.

She was completely unaware that the pen in her hand had left a small ink dot on the notebook.

Jiang Che looked at her, who was pretending to be calm but was actually completely out of it, and the corners of his mouth curled up again.

So cute.

He reopened the Company Law in front of him and pretended to read it.

But I couldn't help but glance to the side.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Su Qinghe's profile, illuminating even the fine downy hairs on her face.

Her ear tips were red, and her cheeks were also red, like a little rabbit that had been teased by its owner.

She was incredibly shy, but she forced herself to act as if nothing was wrong.

Jiang Che looked away and down at the words on the book.

This trip to the library was worthwhile.

…………

It was past 5 p.m. when I came out of the library.

The setting sun bathed the entire campus in a warm golden hue, and the sycamore leaves rustled down, carpeting the ground in gold.

Su Qinghe held Jiang Che's hand as they walked along the tree-lined path, the blush on her face not yet completely gone.

She kept her head down, her steps were a little hesitant, and she was clearly still embarrassed about the note from earlier.

Jiang Che glanced at her sideways. "Still thinking about that note?"

"No!" Su Qinghe's answer came out almost without thinking, but the guilty conscience in her tone was so obvious that even a three-year-old wouldn't be fooled.

Jiang Che laughed, "Then why is your face still so red?"

"It's from the sun!"

Su Qinghe looked up at the sunset on the horizon and made up an excuse with a clear conscience.

"Okay, it's from the sun." Jiang Che didn't call her out on it.

The two walked slowly along the shore of Weiming Lake.

The lake was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the shadows of the weeping willows on the shore and the orange-red sunset on the horizon.

After walking for a while, Su Qinghe slowed down and gently rested her head on Jiang Che's shoulder.

"A-Che".

"Um?"

"This is the college life I've always dreamed of."

Jiang Che looked down at her. "A date at the library?"

"It's not just the library." Su Qinghe buried her face in his shoulder, her voice muffled, "It's doing anything with you at university."

"Going to class together, going to the library together, taking walks by the lake together, watching the sunset together..."

Her voice trailed off, "I'll do anything as long as I'm with you."

Jiang Che's heart softened a little.

He reached out and put his arm around Su Qinghe's shoulder to make her more comfortable.

"Yes," he said. "We'll have plenty of time in the future to do all the things you want to do."

Su Qinghe looked up at him, her eyes sparkling. "Really?"

"real."

"Then..." Su Qinghe's eyes darted around, and she smiled slyly, "Shall we come to the library again tomorrow?"

Jiang Che said nonchalantly, "Sure, I can come over tomorrow and see if kissing in the library is exciting or not."

Su Qinghe's little brain suddenly went blank.

Seeing the girl's stunned expression followed by shyness, Jiang Che couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

"rogue!"

Su Qinghe blushed and punched Jiang Che's arm, then huffed and quickened her pace, "Let's go! Let's go home for dinner!"

So, are we going to come to the library tomorrow or not?

"I'm not coming!"

…………

It's Wednesday.

Today is the day of the small exchange meeting that the music club had arranged.
