Chapter 1027 The Reserved Academic Genius vs. the Sweet Girl (19)
Shen Shuyi was pulled onto his lap and sat there, the boy's clean and refreshing aura wafting over her.
"Shuyi, I like you so much." Xiao Yi wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder.
Do you like me even a little?
Shen Shuyi was being held by him on her side, which wasn't very comfortable. She didn't rush to answer, but instead adjusted herself and sat facing him in his lap.
She leaned her head slightly against Xiao Yi's chest and said contentedly, "I'll tell you when I get back after winter break~"
The two were in a very intimate position at this moment, and if Shen Shuyi gave in, the boy in front of her would definitely be even more unable to control his emotions.
Shen Shuyi was held by him for the entire movie before leaving, but she wasn't paying close attention, as her attention was frequently drawn to the boy in front of her.
It's all Xiao Yi's fault for squeezing her hand and playing with her hair all the time. This guy definitely didn't watch the movie at all!
……
Shen Shuyi left City A and returned to Beijing. The first thing she did was make a video call to Xiao Yi.
"Have you had dinner yet, Yi-ge?"
Xiao Yi stood on the balcony and looked at the room where Shen Shuyi used to live. There were no lights on, and he realized that the girl had already left.
"Yes, I've eaten. What about you?"
"We ate as soon as we got home, and now we're playing in the snow in the yard!"
"It's snowing here."
A girl's excited voice rang out, "Look, it looks especially beautiful under the lights."
She held up her phone to show Xiao Yi the snow scene.
Xiao Yi's gaze fell on the surrounding environment of the villa. He thought to himself, "So Shuyi used to live here, and she lived here for more than ten years."
This place holds too many memories, memories he was never a part of.
"Shuyi, let me see you."
Hearing his gentle voice, Shen Shuyi pointed the camera at herself and said, "What's so interesting? We've only been apart for less than a day."
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "It looks good."
"Want to see."
"Hmph, you've become so glib! I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to go play with my friends!"
Shen Shuyi's phone was ringing off the hook. Li Ruirui kept calling her after learning that she had returned to Beijing, saying she wanted to give her a welcome-back dinner!
"Okay, you must be tired from the flight, get some rest early tonight."
"Okay, goodbye Yi-ge!"
As soon as Shen Shuyi hung up Xiao Yi's call, her phone started vibrating wildly again, bombarded with messages and calls.
She quickly answered the phone, "Okay, Rui Rui, I'll go right now!"
"I'm waiting for you, come quickly!!!" Li Ruirui said excitedly, "I've invited a lot of friends, and there are handsome guys too, I'll introduce them to you then!"
On the other hand, the Shen family's businesses have been booming recently, with the family business achieving new highs in performance, and the good news quickly spread throughout high society circles.
When Ye Feng's parents learned that Shen Shuyi had returned to Beijing, they immediately called Ye Feng over, their expressions full of anxiety.
The mother spoke first: "Feng, have you heard? The Shen family is on the rise right now, and Shen Shuyi has returned to the city. You should hurry up and go find her to apologize properly and coax her back."
The father, with a stern face, agreed: "That's right, you must take this matter seriously."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's face instantly darkened, filled with resentment, and he immediately retorted:
"I'm not going. I never intended to go see Shen Shuyi again."
Going to her would be giving her hope.
Now that you've broken up, don't linger on the past!
He loves Fang Muhe, and only feels brotherly affection for Shen Shuyi.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" His mother frowned angrily. "Shen Shuyi is outstanding in every way, from family background to appearance. So many people are scrambling to get close to her, and yet you're making excuses!" Ye Feng clenched his fists. "I don't want to force myself to win her back for the sake of the family's interests. That's not fair to me."
These words thoroughly angered his parents, and a heated argument ensued at home. The two took turns trying to persuade and pressure him, using the family's future as leverage in every sentence.
Mr. Ye said coldly, "You can keep arguing with me, but I'll make sure Fang Muhe gets out of the prestigious school tomorrow."
"Dad, you can't do this! Whatever you want to do, take it out on me!"
"I don't have time to argue with you. It's your decision whether to go or not, but you need to understand that I mean what I say."
Ye Feng looked dejected, feeling both frustrated and helpless. He couldn't let his parents make things difficult for Mu He.
He mumbled a low reply: "Alright, I understand, I'll go."
As night fell, Shen Shuyi kept her appointment and went to the welcome banquet that Li Ruirui had carefully prepared.
The private room was filled with friends, creating a relaxed and lively atmosphere. Many of them were Shen Shuyi's former classmates, and since they hadn't seen each other for a long time, they had a lot to talk about.
They were particularly curious about Shen Shuyi's life after transferring schools, asking her if her new school was interesting and what fun things there were to do.
Shen Shuyi drank some low-alcohol fruit wine, and the atmosphere was quite nice. Li Ruirui then said, "Ye Feng just called me and said he was coming to the party too. I told him to get lost."
The others pricked up their ears, hearing Shen Shuyi continue:
"Well done, Rui Rui!"
"I stopped liking him a long time ago; just seeing him makes me feel unlucky."
"It's fine if you don't like it. Xiao Yi, you have no idea how annoying Ye Feng has been lately. He's like he's possessed, wagging his tail at a Cinderella!"
“Yeah, Shuyi, you deserve better. Why don’t you look at us?” Several single men in the room volunteered.
Shen Shuyi laughed and said, "Haha, I already have someone I like!"
This incident caused quite a stir. No one expected that the person who was so devoted to Ye Feng would have a crush on someone after only one semester!
"Who?! Oh, Xiaoyi, you didn't even tell me?" Li Ruirui tried to strangle her.
Shen Shuyi quickly surrendered, "Oh dear, we haven't officially started dating yet. I'll bring him over to meet everyone once we're truly together!"
Li Ruirui quickly said, "Send me the photos right now!"
"Yes, yes, we want to watch it too."
The boys present cheered, "If he's not as handsome as us, we won't agree!"
"Give me a break, this is so boring! Xiaoyi, let me see!" Li Ruirui glared at the boys who were egging her on and quickly asked Shen Shuyi to unlock her phone.
Just then, an uninvited guest pushed open the door and came in.
It's Ye Feng.
Li Ruirui realized what was happening and frowned, "Ye Feng, I didn't invite you, did I?"
"I think Xiaoyi doesn't need your invitation." Ye Feng bickered with Li Ruirui as usual; after all, they had been arguing since they were little.
Li Ruirui snorted and grabbed Shen Shuyi's arm, "Xiaoyi, look at him, how annoying he is!"
"Be good, don't get angry because of someone you dislike." Shen Shuyi forked a piece of fruit and fed it to Li Ruirui, then said to Ye Feng, "I have nothing to do with you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng suddenly felt a throbbing pain in his chest, a dull and uncomfortable feeling.
She's so open about it, does she really not like herself?
This should be a good thing for him, so why does he feel so uneasy?
The person he likes is Fang Muhe!
But something felt off.
