Nian Ueno

Upon seeing this, Jiang Weixi was startled and immediately deleted the image.

Really careless.

How could you forget that?

She took a closer look at the edge of the plate and saw that it did indeed have the university logo printed on it, but fortunately it was worn and incomplete.

Only a rough outline can be seen; the color and lettering in the middle have been worn away.

I didn't expect him to be so observant.

I don't know if he recognized the logo.

Oh right, he just mentioned yesterday that he also graduated from this school.

It's over.

No wonder he noticed the logo at a glance.

He must have recognized me...

Jiang Weixi suddenly lost her appetite and nervously picked at her plate with her fingers.

It doesn't matter. Even if he recognizes her, so what? There are so many people in the school, how could he possibly guess who she is?

Will not.

[Mr. Liu Liu: Why did you withdraw it? What are you afraid of, baby? Are you afraid I'll recognize you?]

Jiang Weixi's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, and her heart beat much faster than usual.

She sent an emoji.

[Gentle Little Rabbit: (Innocent)]

Jiang Weixi rolled her eyes and quickly came up with an explanation.

[Gentle Little Rabbit: No, I just wanted to keep things a little mysterious, and besides...]

[Mr. Liu Liu: And what?]

[Gentle Little Rabbit: Actually, the university I went to wasn't particularly good. I'm afraid that if you knew, you'd think I'm not smart and there would be educational discrimination against me.]

She humbled herself, appearing very subservient.

[Mr. Liu Liu: Why do you think this way?]

[Gentle Little Rabbit: Didn't you say you graduated with a master's degree? With such a high level of education, you definitely wouldn't look down on anyone...]

[Gentle Little Rabbit: Brother, to tell you the truth, I didn't get into university. My grades were terrible, and despite trying so hard for a long time, I only got into a junior college. (Little Rabbit sucks its finger)]

[Mr. Liu Liu: ?]

[Gentle Little Rabbit: I'm sorry, I lied to you. I didn't tell you before because I'm very insecure, and besides, I'm not that good-looking. I might not be as pretty as you imagine. Actually, I've always been insecure. (Disappointed)]

[Mr. Liu Liu: So that's why you stood me up at the last minute last time?]

[Gentle Little Rabbit: Well, in real life I'm just a very ordinary girl. My appearance, figure, and voice don't match at all. I feel I'm not good enough for you.]

The other party remained silent for a long time without replying.

Jiang Weixi finished eating the food on her plate, placed the plate in the designated spot, and left the cafeteria.

Mr. Liu Liu suddenly went offline.

Jiang Weixi raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself, "He's probably off taking his girlfriend to take wedding photos."

Ever since she found out he had a girlfriend, Jiang Weixi has been considering ending the relationship herself.

What I'm saying today is to tell Mr. Liu that in reality she's just an ordinary-looking person who isn't very bright, and I want to shatter his illusions.

Knowing all this, he might take the initiative to end the relationship.

Jiang Weixi went back to her dormitory for a half-hour nap, and then went to the library.

I don't have classes this afternoon, but I have a group assignment to complete.

They arranged to meet at a conference room on the fifth floor of the library at 2 PM to work on their assignments together.

Jiang Weixi swiped her card to enter the library.

R University Library has eight floors, each with a different function and purpose.

It was very quiet inside; everyone walked softly and talked in hushed tones.

Overall, the learning atmosphere at R University is quite strong.

Jiang Weixi got into the elevator, and she was the only one inside.

The elevator stopped briefly on the third floor, the doors opened, and a man and a woman were standing outside.

The three looked at each other, stunned.

The people standing outside the elevator were Ji Xingzhou and Xu Manzhen.

Ji Xingzhou glanced at her with slight surprise, while Xu Manzhen's eyes were filled with hostility.

Xu Manzhen immediately took Ji Xingzhou's hand, interlocked their fingers, and the two walked in together.

Jiang Weixi withdrew her gaze, retreated to the corner expressionlessly, and looked down at her phone.

Ji Xingzhou's gaze fell on her slightly bent neck, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

She was wearing a burgundy hooded sweatshirt today, with her hair in a high ponytail. Her profile was bright and serene; she looked very beautiful.

After not seeing her for a while, she seemed to have acquired an inexplicable charm, like a rose blooming in autumn.

When we were together before, how come he didn't notice these things?

Why do people find her timid, weak, and uninteresting?

Xu Manzhen noticed that he was daydreaming, so she gripped his hand tighter and looked displeased, as if she was unhappy that he was paying attention to other women.

Ji Xingzhou withdrew his gaze and glanced down at the girl holding his hand.

Xu Manzhen leaned on his shoulder, glared at him, and pinched his waist as punishment for looking at other people earlier.

She pinched him so hard that it almost left a purplish-blue mark on his waist.

Ji Xingzhou frowned subconsciously, a hint of annoyance flashing in his eyes.

Xu Manzhen's temper has become much more restrained compared to before, but her spoiled nature still remains. The personality she developed over twenty years of being pampered cannot be changed overnight.

But this was his first love, the lover he cherished most when he was a teenager, the person he vowed to love and cherish for a lifetime.

Ji Xingzhou had been very tolerant of her before, and after they got back together, he believed that he could still tolerate everything about her.

But now, undeniably, he felt a touch of annoyance.

If he didn't have his obedient, sensible, gentle, and compliant ex-girlfriend Jiang Weixi as a contrast, perhaps he could still tolerate Xu Manzhen's occasional willfulness and unreasonableness.

But now Ji Xingzhou can't help but compare the two girls.

Xu Manzhen is very selfish. She only cares about her own feelings and rarely considers his thoughts. No matter what she does, he always has to compromise, be humble, and back down.

Jiang Weixi would never do that; when they were together, she always put his feelings first.

Jiang Weixi is very attentive and can sense his disappointment, sadness, and unhappiness. She is also very gentle and can guide him out of his negative emotions with just a few words.

He used to take all of this for granted, but now that he has a girlfriend with a different style, he finally understands Jiang Weixi's uniqueness.

Ji Xingzhou's heart wavered, tossing and turning between the two girls.

The elevator stopped on the fifth floor. Jiang Weixi ignored the two of them, walked past them, and strode forward.

Ji Xingzhou subconsciously followed her out of the elevator. Looking at the girl's straight back and swaying ponytail, a thought flashed through his mind: Why can't he have both?
