Chapter 598 The High-and-mighty, Two-Faced Academic Genius (Gong) VS The Unrestrained, Charming, and
Lu Ziqi was stunned for a moment before belatedly realizing that he was indeed very close to Jiang Xiyu.
He paused for a moment, then sat up straight again, somewhat embarrassed.
By this time, Bai Chengci had already left.
Those around him who heard him say his mouth hurt, and seeing his injured appearance, were even more convinced that Jiang Xiyu had hit him.
As soon as the latest post on the forum was refreshed, someone immediately commented on the post about 'Jiang Xiyu and Bai Chengci's discord'.
[OMG: I was right there in the first cafeteria and witnessed these two sworn enemies meet, their eyes blazing with hatred.]
[Dimples: I can attest, the genius's eyes are so cold.]
[Old Altar Shancai: I heard the top student is in so much pain he has to go to the infirmary. Was the beating that serious?]
[Dili Reba: Yes, she's been saying her mouth hurts.]
……
After leaving the cafeteria, Jiang Xiyu went with Zhou Xi and the others to rest in the apartment closest to the school.
Zhou Xi bought this apartment. He rarely comes here, only occasionally to rest when he has a lot of classes. The apartment is cleaned regularly every week, so it was very clean and tidy when they went there.
Neither of them felt sleepy, but seeing that Jiang Xiyu seemed a bit tired, Zhou Xi took the initiative to lead him to the guest room.
Zhou Xi smiled and said, "No one has slept in this room. You can sleep here. I'll come and wake you up when class starts this afternoon."
Jiang Xiyu nodded: "Thank you."
Zhou Xi hummed in agreement, lingered on Jiang Xiyu for two seconds, then walked out and closed the door behind him.
Zhou Xi had asked the housekeeper to turn on the air conditioning in the room before they arrived.
Jiang Xiyu was indeed a bit hot. After washing her face with cold water in the bathroom, she leaned against the headboard to read the news.
Aside from group messages, Bai Chengci sent the most messages.
With Do Not Disturb enabled and message delays in place, Jiang Xiyu didn't reply at that time.
Upon receiving the message, Jiang Xiyu glanced through it and couldn't help but chuckle.
The latest post is that Bai Chengci said he couldn't stop Xu Yunzhi.
Jiang Xiyu only replied: "The acting was quite good."
The message "The other party is typing" appeared briefly, then disappeared and reappeared.
Jiang Xiyu waited for a while, then, feeling bored, clicked on Bai Chengci's WeChat profile picture.
His profile picture was blank, and his WeChat Moments were almost nonexistent, like a brand new account.
Jiang Xiyu glanced at it and lost interest. After exiting, he saw that the other party had been typing for a long time but hadn't produced any meaningful results.
[Heart emoji]: Never mind, I won't reply.
At that moment, Bai Chengci was sitting in the car, which happened to be parked downstairs at the apartment building where Jiang Xiyu and the others were going.
After leaving the cafeteria, he parted ways with Xu Yunzhi.
He waited at the school gate for a long time before he saw Jiang Xiyu come out.
However, Jiang Xiyu didn't seem to see him and instead walked in another direction with Zhou Xi and the others.
Bai Chengci then had the driver follow her to this apartment building.
He sat in the car, waiting for Jiang Xiyu to reply to his message.
But Jiang Xiyu returned very late, so late that his patience was about to run out.
He wanted to know where he was.
I want to ask him if he can come down and meet me.
I also wanted to ask him if he could not stay with Lu Ziqi and the others.
Stop playing with them and just play with yourself.
What are they doing on that floor?
In short, I have so many questions.
Jiang Xiyu... Jiang Xiyu...
Bai Chengci repeated these three words over and over, then closed her eyes, leaned back against the car seat, and calmed herself down for a while.
When Jiang Xiyu finally sent a message back, he opened his eyes, his gaze still filled with a lingering gloom.
Bai Chengci stared at the chat interface for a while before her fingertips moved.
I just went to the infirmary.
[Heart emoji]: Don't pretend, is it that serious?
Bai Chengci: [Hmm, I'm a little afraid of pain.]
After typing this sentence, Bai Chengci slightly raised her eyes and glanced coldly at the apartment building through the car window.
The phone was silent for half a minute before ringing again.
[Heart emoji]: Then I won't kiss you next time.
Bai Chengci: "..."
He typed: "【Does 'no more kissing' mean we're not playing anymore?】"
[Heart emoji]: Aren't you in pain?
Bai Chengci: [Even if it hurts, I still want to kiss you.]
After sending it, he waited for that familiar "get lost" word.
Jiang Xiyu read the chat three times.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Although Bai Chengci always spoke to him like this, Jiang Xiyu still keenly sensed something unusual in his words.
He didn't reply immediately, but scrolled up through the records, going back and forth twice before finally figuring out where the problem was.
This time, Bai Chengci didn't send any of those cute but pretentious emojis when she posted the message.
Jiang Xiyu initially thought Bai Chengci's cold expression while sending these emojis was a bit of a forced attempt at cuteness, but when he suddenly stopped sending them, Jiang Xiyu felt that the chat was missing something.
Sending emojis proves you're in a good mood; what does it mean if you don't send emojis?
Jiang Xiyu didn't want to ask directly, so she could only change the subject.
What are you up to in the cafeteria today?
[Bai Chengci: No, I just wanted to see you.]
Jiang Xiyu is now almost immune to Bai Chengci's occasional sweet talk.
He typed expressionlessly: "Seriously, Bai Chengci? You're already this clingy after just one kiss?"
Bai Chengci: Hmm.
Jiang Xiyu stared at the word "hmm" for a long time, then decided not to reply.
It's pointless; it feels like offering a warm welcome only to be met with indifference.
Jiang Xiyu had just decided not to go back.
[Bai Chengci: Are you still in school?]
Jiang Xiyu scoffed: "Why should I report to you?"
Bai Chengci: [(loppy crying)]
Jiang Xiyu looked at the pink beaver crying with tears in its eyes and felt inexplicably relieved.
So he replied: "I'm resting."
[Bai Chengci: I want to rest with you. (loppy sleepy jpg)]
Jiang Xiyu curled her lips into a smile: [Get lost.]
[Bai Chengci: Well, can I make a phone call? (Cat tilting its head jpg)]
No.
[Bai Chengci: Then I'll wait for you after school today, okay?]
【not good. 】
[Bai Chengci: Why? (???)]
Because you're annoying.
After sending the message, Jiang Xiyu searched through her collection of emojis.
He then realized he didn't have the habit of saving emojis, so he randomly saved one from the group chat and sent it to Bai Chengci: [(Jerry, looking impatient, captioned: So annoying.)]
When Bai Chengci received it, the corner of her lips twitched slightly.
[Bai Chengci: (Tom picks up Jerry and kisses him, smacking his lips GIF)]
[Bai Chengci: Don't be angry. (Love you)]
Jiang Xiyu sneered at the sentence, wondering who was angry and who had started the cold message.
However, he couldn't be bothered to argue anymore. After yawning, he decided to end the conversation: "Going to sleep."
[Bai Chengci: Sleep with me?]
Jiang Xiyu had no idea how he had connected those two sentences.
【Are you trying to talk to me about sex, you bastard?】
[Bai Chengci: This... isn't that a good idea? But if you want, I'm willing, okay?]
That sentence lingered on the chat interface for about ten seconds before being retracted, seemingly to cover up the truth.
[Bai Chengci: No, I want to kiss you.]
Jiang Xiyu was so angry at Bai Chengci's actions that he laughed. However, he didn't have the energy to continue arguing with Bai Chengci. He was a little sleepy, but he didn't want to let Bai Chengci off so easily.
So Jiang Xiyu replied with a few flirtatious words: 【Okay, next time I won't make you hurt, I'll make you feel good.】
