"That's it. Since you have arranged your work now, go quickly. I am also busy here."

Yun Xiao still spoke in a rather cold tone, and seemed to be still suppressing some emotions in her heart. Such straightforward words of pushing away finally made Liu Qingyi, who was still smiling knowingly,

A look of surprise suddenly appeared on her pretty face.

"Yunxiao, what's wrong with you? Why do I think you're talking weird? Did something happen?"

Liu Qingyi frowned slightly, and she suddenly swallowed back the words she was about to suggest that we go to the cafeteria for lunch together. She looked at Nalan Yunxiao with a faint twinkle in her eyes, and from the latter's expression, she clearly noticed something slightly...

She looked so angry, which made her doubtful.

Naturally, she would not believe that Yun Xiao had such emotions because of seeing herself, so the only explanation was that he encountered some difficult problem here.

Opening his mouth and letting out a breath of turbid air, Yun Xiao raised his hands, closed his eyes, and rubbed his forehead slightly, and then opened his eyes. But the complicated expression on his face was still quite solemn, and his eyes were fixed on Liu Qingyi. After a long time, he became quiet again.

Sigh and confess to her——

"Are you very free now? Then let's find a place to sit alone. I think there's something I need to talk to you about."

"Huh?" Sakura's lips parted slightly and she responded in astonishment. Liu Qingyi didn't recover for a moment, but she still nodded.

But she seemed to have a vague feeling that Yun Xiao's sudden abnormal attitude seemed to have something to do with her.

"Let's go, I'll take you to a place."

Seeing Liu Qingyi nod her head and agree, the suppressed emotions on Yun Xiao's face calmed down a bit. In fact, he didn't want to treat Liu Qingyi with such an attitude, but the old things he happened to know just now made him feel uncomfortable.

No matter what, he couldn't calm down.

After Nalan Yunxiao finished speaking, he took a step forward and took the lead to walk out of the small studio. He turned around and slowly closed the door. Liu Qingyi looked curious and couldn't help but glance around the room.

He opened his eyes, but Yun Xiao closed the door tightly.

Helplessly licking her pink lips, Liu Qingyi's eyebrows finally raised slightly at this moment.

She really didn't understand why Yun Xiao suddenly seemed like a different person, so when she saw the latter walking quickly towards the corridor, she raised her jade hand slightly, brushed the black hair on her forehead, moved quickly in the same way, and followed curiously.

Go up.

When Nalan Yunxiao led Liu Qingyi towards the gravel clearing on the seaside where Niu Fang had taken him before, the Eton College of Santa Fe had already entered a state of tranquility.

The afternoon sun shines lazily on the red tiles and white walls of the various buildings on campus, reflecting a gleaming luster. In the flower bed in the center of the college, yellow leaves sometimes flutter and sway down with the wind, embellishing the increasingly cool autumn weather.

meaning.

In a winding path between the flower beds, three young figures, two men and one woman, were walking quietly side by side. The rustling of yellow leaves under their feet could be heard from time to time, but the faces of the three people at this moment looked a little different.

, it seemed like everyone was pondering something in their hearts, but in a tacit agreement, no one chose to speak.

This quiet movement continues, but no matter how long the flower bed path is, it will come to an end. The girl walking between the three people suddenly raised her head and looked at the gradually sparse fallen leaves under her feet and the flowers that came into view.

In the girls' apartment, the red lips pursed slightly, and then she spoke slowly, taking the lead in breaking the rather strange atmosphere between the three of them.

"Ziqi——"

Tang Yating smiled faintly at Zhou Ziqi. After speaking, she turned to look at Mo Qingfeng. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, a look of complexity flashed across her face. Her words were slow for a moment before she continued to speak.

"Mo Qingfeng, should I go back to the dormitory first? You..."

When Zhou Ziqi saw Tang Yating looking at Mo Qingfeng with a look that she still hadn't finished speaking, he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways. He glanced at Mo Qingfeng, but the latter's expression was still as calm and devoid of anything.

After a slight change, he seemed to be about to turn around and leave.

"Mo Qingfeng, wait."

But just when Mo Qingfeng was about to take steps, and Tang Yating slowly lowered her head, Zhou Ziqi, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke. He stared at Mo Qingfeng, his expression suddenly changed.

It suddenly became solemn. This scene made Mo Qingfeng and Tang Yating, who turned back to look at him, feel a little surprised in their hearts.

"Why, do you still want to ask me for medical expenses?"

Mo Qingfeng stared at Zhou Ziqi, and after a moment he grinned, asking helplessly. Tang Yating in front of him frowned at Mo Qingfeng, but the latter turned a deaf ear.

"That's not the case. Since it was a misunderstanding, I certainly won't take it to heart. I'm looking for you just because I want to talk to you alone about other matters."

After Zhou Ziqi said this, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Tang Yating. His eyes seemed to have a hint of giving away.

Tang Yating stared at Zhou Ziqi and naturally saw what he meant. She didn't say anything at the moment. She just nodded slightly, then turned around and left gracefully. When her eyes moved past Mo Qingfeng, she was still slightly confused.

When his handsome face stood up, his expression couldn't help but darken inexplicably.

Mo Qingfeng, who was only looking at Zhou Ziqi at the moment, naturally didn't see this extremely subtle scene, but Zhou Ziqi, who had been peeking at her from the side, suddenly noticed it. Zhou Ziqi's expression became more solemn, and he looked at

As Tang Yating left Qianying silently, she suddenly felt a little depressed.

"Don't look at it, everyone has gone away."

Mo Qingfeng looked at Zhou Ziqi's slightly narrowed eyes and his gaze that was still tilted towards the girl's apartment. A meaningful smile appeared on his face and he smiled casually.

Zhou Ziqi was slightly startled by his sudden words for a moment, and then turned back to look at Mo Qingfeng, his eyes wandering slightly, and he hesitated for a moment, as if he had gone through some thinking before trying to ask -

"What is the relationship between you and Yating?"

Mo Qingfeng was speechless when he heard the words, and he didn't understand for a while. Because he had known Zhou Ziqi for a long time, but this was the first time he saw the latter's tone and expression suddenly become so weird.

"Me and her?"

Mo Qingfeng seemed to still be confused, but he began to think slowly in his mind. However, it had to be said that Zhou Ziqi's question was an extremely serious question, but Mo Qingfeng didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

"We should... we actually just met each other not long ago, so we shouldn't even be considered ordinary friends. As for what kind of relationship it is, this -"

Mo Qingfeng suddenly paused at this point and did not continue to explain.

After all, he had no plans and could not tell Zhou Ziqi about Tang Yating's odd-time job as a handyman at his house. As for the reason for this, perhaps Mo Qingfeng himself was not clear about it.

Mo Qingfeng's casual words fell into Zhou Ziqi's ears, but his expression could not help but change. It was not that he suspected that Mo Qingfeng was lying to him, after all, the latter's temperament would not be like this. What surprised him

, is Tang Yating's attitude towards Mo Qingfeng.

Because if it was true as Mo Qingfeng said, he and Tang Yating had just met, not even ordinary friends, but Tang Yating was only initially angry for a moment after Mo Qingfeng accidentally hurt her.

After that, she never complained about him again.

If this kind of thing had happened to anyone else, given Tang Yating's character that could ignite at the drop of a hat, I'm afraid it would never have been so simple.

Zhou Ziqi thought about it over and over, and finally his pupils suddenly shrank. Because the only reason that could explain this was...

"How is this possible? Yating, she actually——"

With his heart surging like a huge wave, Zhou Ziqi raised his head and looked at Mo Qingfeng again. His eyes were no longer solemn, replaced by deep panic and inexplicable jealousy.

Although there are some things and some words that he has buried deep in his heart and never spoken out, it does not mean that they do not exist.

Zhou Ziqi is a person with an extremely delicate mind like a woman. He has never had any other thoughts about Tang Yating, but for him, that feeling has been fermenting deep in his heart. Maybe others don't know her clearly.

Good and special, but Zhou Ziqi, who has been classmates with Tang Yating for three years, is clear and understanding in his heart.

"Zhou Ziqi? What's wrong with you?"

When Zhou Ziqi stood there in shock and surprise, staring at Mo Qingfeng with complicated eyes, but without saying a word, the latter finally shrugged impatiently and spoke.

The awkward atmosphere between the two of them was about to dissipate again.

"It's okay, that's it. I have to leave first."

Zhou Ziqi's eyes were always slightly lowered, and he never looked at Mo Qingfeng again. He seemed to be talking to himself, his voice seemed a little weak and weak, and then without waiting for Mo Qingfeng to say anything else, he turned around and walked slowly

We walked back along the flower bed path that led us back and forth.

Mo Qingfeng was stunned again. He tilted his bright head slightly and looked at Zhou Ziqi who was walking away. For some reason, he suddenly felt that the latter's back looked vaguely lonely.

The autumn leaves were still rustling, and the fallen leaves were drifting, sometimes curling up. The cool breeze blew lightly on Mo Qingfeng's handsome face, spreading like a mask, lifting some of the bangs that fell on his forehead and swaying slightly.

It wasn't until Zhou Ziqi's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corner of the winding path that Mo Qingfeng slowly turned back. He was about to look in the direction of the girls' apartment where Tang Yating left, and saw the mobile phone slightly held in the palm of his right hand.

But at this moment it suddenly rang.

Mo Qingfeng raised her eyebrows slightly, lowered her head, slowly raised her arms, and stared at the phone screen on her palm. It turned out to be a text message from her mother, Shen Ruxin—

"Qingyu has woken up. The doctor just came to check and said that the wound has healed well and there is nothing serious. She just had lunch and is resting now. Grandma is with her. If you want

If you want to see her, come after school."

A smile of relief slowly appeared on the corners of his lips. Mo Qingfeng raised his bright head and looked at the sky, letting the warm but not dazzling sunlight shine on his cheeks.
