“No!” Ye Tianxin disagreed firmly. “Xiaohui, the college entrance exams is tomorrow. Can’t you eat your skewers after that?”
Li Xiaohui flung Ye Tianxin’s hand away angrily. “Tianxin, I am treating you as a good friend of mine. That’s why I’m asking you to go and eat skewers with me,” Li Xiaohui explained. “Forget it if you don’t want to eat. I’ll find someone else to eat with me.”
Ye Tianxin watched as Li Xiaohui walked away. She called out for Li Xiaohui and emphasized, “Xiaohui, I am also treating you as a good friend of mine. That is why I am telling you that you will have plenty of opportunities to eat skewers later. However, the college entrance exams are a crucial moment in your life that will determine your fate. Think about what I have just said. Are skewers more important than your future? Think about it.”
With that, Ye Tianxin went to bed.
She flipped through some especially difficult and key questions and studied them.
In her past life, she had done poorly for the college entrance exams. As such, she felt even more nervous when she had to do it again.
“I will make it this time,” Ye Tianxin muttered.
Li Xiaohui hesitated for a moment but the urge to eat skewers won her over. “I won’t have too much,” she told Ye Tianxin. “I will bring some for you.”
“You don’t have to,” Ye Tianxin refused.
When Li Xiaohui left, Ye Tianxin took a short nap before she resumed studying.
Li Xiaohui returned to the dormitory in the evening. She held Ye Tianxin’s hand excitedly and told her about the city. Her eyes shone brilliantly.
“Tianxin, did you hear what I just told you?”
Ye Tianxin nodded. “I heard you.”
“Then shouldn’t you be excited about it?” Li Xiaohui asked, confused.
Ye Tianxin looked at Li Xiaohui and felt as if she was looking at her past self. She had been this ignorant in her past life.
“I don’t have anything to say.”
Li Xiaohui saw how indifferent Ye Tianxin was and couldn’t help but comment, “Ye Tianxin, why do you behave like an old lady? You are so boring! Forget it. I won’t talk to you.”
Ye Tianxin was not the only girl in the dormitory. Li Xiaohui quickly found other girls to talk about the city.
Ye Tianxin felt that they were a little noisy. She picked up her phone and walked away quietly. She sat down under the basketball hoop in the field.
She took out her phone and looked at Li Qingcang’s name on the screen. Then, she made up her mind and pressed on his name.
A dialing tone could be heard on the phone.
Every ring seemed to coincide with Ye Tianxin’s heartbeat.
She heard her heart jumping, going thump, thump, thump.
“Tianxin.”
Li Qingcang’s voice could be heard from the other line.
Ye Tianxin’s eyes reddened slightly. She swallowed thickly and said, “Elder Brother Li…”
“Tianxin, where are you right now?”
“I am in the girls’ dormitory in First High School,” Ye Tianxin answered softly.
Li Qingcang frowned. What was Jing Zhichen doing?
He knew that Ye Tianxin was going to take the college entrance exams. Why didn’t he book a suite in a hotel for her?
Would Ye Tianxin be able to sleep well in the girls’ dormitory?
If she did not sleep well, it would affect her mind when she takes the college entrance exams!
“Tianxin, I will get someone to book you a suite at a hotel. Pack up your things.”
‘I did not need a hotel suite,’ Ye Tianxin thought.
She wanted to see him.
If only she could see him tonight, it wouldn’t matter where she would sleep.
“Elder Brother Li..,” Ye Tainxin began.
Li Qingcang answered, “Hmm?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to say your name.”
Ye Tianxin laughed. Li Qingcang replied, “Wait for me!”
“Elder Brother Li, are you going to come and see me?”
