Chapter 662: Chapter 662: Incitement

The two walked on campus, and at this time, boys and girls walking together had to maintain a distance.

Yue Qingqing and Jiang Jingze kept half a body’s distance almost stepping on the man’s shadow as she walked.

Jiang Jingze was tall and handsome, and even his shadow seemed better-looking than others.

She wasn’t sure if it was her illusion, but Yue Qingqing felt that every time she saw Jiang Jingze, he appeared even more upright and attractive than before.

It seemed as though the environment in Beijing had sharpened his edge, making him unforgettable at a glance.

Perhaps it was also because her uncle often joked around, Yue Qingqing always felt somewhat embarrassed facing him.

She could no longer regard him with the same mindset as she did a child.

Jiang Jingze suddenly turned around, his gaze intensely fixed on Yue Qingqing.

“Why aren’t you talking?” They usually chatted quite a bit on the phone.

Yue Qingqing babbled to him about interesting school events, her uncle’s side job, and some family matters.

But when truly facing him in person, Yue Qingqing inexplicably felt shyer.

“Ahem, so, how have you been lately?” Yue Qingqing tried to find a topic.

Jiang Jingze broke the norm, “Not good.”

Yue Qingqing was taken aback.

His hand covered hers, lightly resting on her forehead, carrying a certain burning warmth.

“Beijing is too far from you.”

It was a fervent declaration of love, yet he expressed it in the most ordinary words, turning Yue Qingqing’s face even redder.

The two of them walked and talked in the campus, the people on the weekend not too many, and those on the sports field even fewer.

They walked round and round, as if the rubber track beneath their feet were the rings of time.

Yue Qingqing felt overwhelmed by waves of daze, remembering how long they had known each other, long enough that she seemed to have grown accustomed to having such a person in her life.

Jiang Jingze couldn’t spend much time in Lingguang. After having dinner together at the Four Seas Restaurant by evening, Jiang Jingze had to prepare to leave.

At the school gate, Jiang Jingze looked at Yue Qingqing, his eyes seemingly only able to see her.

“Qingqing, I’ll be waiting for you in Beijing.”

When together, he always wished time would slow down even more.

Yet after departing, he hoped time would fly by quickly.

Yue Qingqing returned to her dormitory with a sense of melancholy, unaware that a figure in the dark had been watching her the whole time.

“Jiang, classmate.”

Jiang Jingze was about to turn around when he heard the voice and looked towards it.

Zhou Xitong smoothed her hair and walked over gracefully.

Jiang Jingze frowned subtly, a flash of coldness in his eyes.

Zhou Xitong, believing her approach to be the most graceful, came closer with a coquettish voice, “What a coincidence running into you here.”

Jiang Jingze didn’t speak, and Zhou Xitong didn’t feel awkward, lifting her face to smile.

“Are you here to see Yue Qingqing? There are often men coming to see her.”

Zhou Xitong had seen Yue Jiannan picking up Yue Qingqing and once caught Yan Sinian visiting her specifically in Lingguang.

In Zhou Xitong’s eyes, Yue Qingqing was a girl who seemed pure outwardly but was actually flirtatious, and she must not let Jiang Jingze be deceived.

Jiang Jingze looked at her with a cold gaze, “I remember you.”

Zhou Xitong immediately smiled sneakily, “Really?”

“Stay away from Qingqing,” Jiang Jingze coldly warned, “If I find out you’ve been bullying her, I won’t let you off.”

Zhou Xitong stood frozen on the spot. Other than her annoying cousin, this was the first time a man had spoken to her like this.

But there was no hint of jest in Jiang Jingze’s eyes, which made Zhou Xitong furious.

She was also attractive, and her family background was much better than that of a bumpkin from Zhuancheng like Yue Qingqing.

Were these men blind? Why were they so attentive to her?

“Jiang Jingze, you really don’t understand what kind of person Yue Qingqing is. In school, she’s so close with Zhuang Lan, and outside, she’s always pulling and tugging with other men. She’s not worthy of you.”

Jiang Jingze snorted and didn’t even bother to glance at her, let alone converse.

Watching his merciless back, Zhou Xitong clenched her fists in anger.

“You’ve been fooled by her! She’s nothing good.”

“Just wait and see, I’ll find the proof!”
