Yan Heng and Qi Yue directly took the three of them to the bottom of the dormitory building, and Yan Heng reluctantly left. "I'm telling you, you're hopeless. Your emotional intelligence is so low that it's infuriating. You still act cold in front of the person you like," Qi Yue clicked his tongue. Yan Heng looked at Qi Yue coldly and said, "Who said I like her? She's so timid and foolish," he didn't like Jiang Tianxin. Qi Yue snorted in his heart, this guy says one thing but means another. He decided to play along, "I didn't say which one. It seems like you're very clear in your heart. You can continue to act that way." After Tianxin returned to the dormitory, she collapsed on the bed, "I'm so tired, my feet hurt," she hadn't walked for such a long time in a while. Zhu Ting climbed onto the bed, "It's so comfortable. Tianxin, you're so delicate. Look at Zhu Yan, she's not even panting. Just go out and play more in the future," Tianxin dragged her chin with both hands, "Going shopping and stuff isn't really my thing." There were only three people in the dormitory now, which was quieter than usual. However, with Zhu Ting and Zhu Yan there, it was not awkward at all. Tianxin looked at her extracurricular book and suddenly felt homesick. In junior high school, her home was closer to the school, and she always went home. But now, she sometimes didn't go home on weekends. "Tianxin, who do you think is more handsome, Qi Yue or Yan Heng?" Zhu Ting, who was playing with her phone, suddenly asked Tianxin. Zhu Yan also looked at the two of them curiously, eager for some gossip. Qi Yue is called the "campus grass," while Yan Heng is called the "domineering grass." More than half of the girls on campus want to be their girlfriends. It's scary," Zhu Yan shook her head. They both have looks, and one is also a top student with an illustrious family background. Others dream of having what they already have. Tianxin asked in confusion, "Domineering grass?" It's really quite unique, probably something they made up behind his back. Zhu Ting sat up abruptly and patted the bed railing. "I've made up my mind, Tianxin. I'm going to pursue Qi Yue. He's my ideal type," she said. Tianxin was startled by Zhu Ting's sudden outburst. "What's gotten into you, Zhu Ting? Don't be impulsive," Qi Yue, though appearing gentle and polite to others, had turned down many girls before. Many excellent girls in their school had failed to win him over. "I'm serious. I just want to give it a try. Who knows, I might actually succeed," Zhu Ting said confidently. "Tianxin, you know Qi Yue well. Can you help me get his contact information?" Tianxin was a bit embarrassed. She didn't really know Qi Yue that well, they were just acquaintances. "I'm not that close to Qi Yue. Why don't you just ask him yourself?" she suggested. Zhu Ting looked at Tianxin pitifully. "I'm too embarrassed to ask him directly. Since Yan Heng is good friends with him, could you ask Yan Heng for his contact information? My marriage fate is in your hands," she pleaded. Tianxin relented. "Alright, I'll get you his contact information. But that's all I can do for you." "You're the best, Tianxin. If it works out, I'll treat you guys to dinner," Zhu Ting beamed, her face pink with excitement. Tianxin couldn't help but wonder if love was really that wonderful. Tianxin chatted with Jiang Yizhou, whom she had been close to since childhood. Jiang Yizhou was very fond of Tianxin and asked her about her life. Tianxin answered all his questions, and he shared his experiences to help Tianxin adjust to high school life. She also asked about his life in college, and they talked for a long time before ending the conversation. Tianxin clicked on Yan Heng's friend circle, but there was nothing there, just a blank space. Why was someone's friend circle so empty? Was it because they didn't want others to peek into their heart? Tianxin's own friend circle was also simple and ordinary, with no updates for several weeks. She never posted any sentences about her feelings on her friend circle because she didn't want her parents to see them. She had her own little privacy. Drinking some milk at night can help with sleep, Tianxin thought and decided to send a message to Yan Heng. After a while without a reply, she sighed, realizing that he might be busy. Today's expenses were paid by Yan Heng, making her feel complicated. After exercising all day and sweating profusely, Yan Heng returned home and sent Qi Yue away before starting to write his exam paper. After finishing, he went to the bathroom, wearing a bathrobe and wiping his hair with a towel. He picked up his phone from the bedside table and saw Tianxin's message. His mood fluctuated, wondering what she wanted to say to him. As he read her message, he started to grin foolishly and didn't even notice the water droplets dampening his pillow. He quickly replied, "I didn't see it when I was showering earlier. There is no milk at home. I will buy some tomorrow." When Tianxin heard her WeChat notification, her face turned red as she read Yan Heng's message. She replied, "Mm, thank you for today. I knew the spicy hotpot was from you." Yan Heng was even happier to see Tianxin's message, but he struggled to come up with a suitable response. He had never talked to a girl like this before, and he was afraid that discussing overly personal topics would make him appear frivolous, potentially causing her to dislike him. "Sleep early. Good night," Tianxin sent before exiting WeChat. In the dark night, she touched her own face. "Good night, scaredy-cat," Yan Heng murmured silently. Under the big pagoda tree, Tianxin paced back and forth, reviewing her lessons, while Yan Heng watched the people downstairs, unsure of why he had come to the evening study session. When Tianxin returned to the classroom and saw Yan Heng sitting there, she walked over and said, "You came early today." "Uh, just came to do homework," Yan Heng replied obediently, taking out his notebook. These homework assignments were useless to him, and he considered it a waste of time to do them. However, he didn't mind doing them if it could improve his image in Tianxin's eyes. "Keep it up," Tianxin said sweetly, making Yan Heng's heart beat a little faster. With not many people in the classroom, he enjoyed being with her. Remembering Zhu Ting's advice, Tianxin struggled to speak, and her hesitant behavior caught Yan Heng's attention. "What's wrong?" he asked. "Can you give me Qi Yue's contact information, his phone number or his □□ number is fine," Tianxin was a bit nervous. Yan Heng's smile stiffened on her face, then quickly returned to normal. She had a pleasant conversation with Qi Yue, and he was the type of guy she liked - warm and gentle. Qi Yue was the ideal type for her, and she didn't even have the courage to ask Yan Heng why she wanted his contact information. "Is it convenient?" Tianxin asked tentatively. "It's convenient," Yan Heng said, not knowing how she managed to say it. Her heart was as cold as ice. "I'll write it down for you." Yan Heng mechanically tore off a piece of paper and her hand trembled slightly. Yan Heng wrote down Qi Yue's phone number and □□ number, and Tianxin thanked her and put the note in her pen bag. Yan Heng was restless, and she left without finishing her things. Tianxin thought Yan Heng just had something to do, but she didn't come back even when the bell rang. What's wrong with Yan Heng? She was happy when she first arrived and said she wanted to do her homework. Was she angry because she got Qi Yue's contact information? Zhu Ting came in. "Has Yan Heng come today?" "She came and left. I got Qi Yue's contact information back," Tianxin gave the note to Zhu Ting, and Zhu Ting took it happily. Zhong You looked at the two of them mysteriously. "What contact information?" "Contact information of the male god," Zhu Ting said with a smile. Zhong You nodded and silently went back to reading his book. Tianxin was also absent-minded. When Yan Heng left, she was not in a good mood. What's going on? Should she go find Qi Yue and ask him? Yan Heng went to the internet cafe alone and didn't come back until her eyes hurt from playing games. His mind was filled with scenes of Tianxin asking for Qi Yue's contact information, and he kept smoking one after another. "F*ck, can you stop smoking? Do you know it's affecting me?" The person next to him suddenly stood up and threw the mouse. "Are you looking for a fight?" Tianxin spent the entire self-study period worrying about Yan Heng, but she couldn't go out to find him. She was dazed the whole time. After finishing class, Tianxin returned to the dormitory and immediately sent a message to Yan Heng. However, her messages went unanswered and she started to worry. She stared at her phone for a long time, but there was still no reply, and Yan Heng didn't answer her video call either. "Why are you always looking at your phone, Tianxin?" Zhu Yan asked, feeling annoyed. Tianxin usually only checked her phone after finishing everything she needed to do, but tonight she was looking at it more frequently than usual. "It's nothing," Tianxin put down her phone and went to wash her face and get some water. She still felt restless lying on the bed and kept sending messages to Yan Heng. Meanwhile, Zhu Ting tried to add Qi Yue on WeChat but couldn't find her. She sent a message but was told she had the wrong person. She double-checked and confirmed that it was indeed the wrong number. "Tianxin, did you give me the wrong contact information?" Zhu Ting asked. "No, I got it from Yan Heng. Are you sure you typed it correctly?" Tianxin replied. Zhu Ting tried again, but it was still the wrong number. "If you don't want to give it to me, just say so. Why use a fake number to deceive me? Is that fun?" Zhu Ting put down her phone, feeling upset. "It was from Yan Heng," Tianxin was confused too. How could it be the wrong number? "Yan Heng is Qi Yue's good friend. Can he make mistakes with both the WeChat and phone numbers? If you don't want to give it to me, just say so. Why lie to me?" Zhu Ting's tone was harsh. "What's going on with you guys?" Zhao Xuexi was confused. Why did they suddenly start arguing? "Zhu Ting, why don't you ask Yan Heng tomorrow? It must be his prank. Don't be angry. Let's talk it out," Zhu Yan knew what happened, but the others were still clueless. Tianxin didn't say anything and felt wronged. She was worried about Yan Heng and was misunderstood by her roommates. Zhu Ting turned over and went to sleep, while Zhu Yan sent a message to comfort Tianxin. Tianxin replied that she was fine, but Yan Heng still hadn't replied after so long. Why did Yan Heng deceive her? Was it really just a prank? Why couldn't she reach him? Was he angry at her? She was so worried and couldn't sleep well that night. The next morning, she woke up feeling unwell, and Zhu Ting didn't talk to her. Tianxin sighed.
