Chu Ning had always had a good impression of Xu Xi. That day, when she hadn’t gone to the cafeteria for lunch, he had even thoughtfully bought a serving for her and had sent it over.
When she chatted with him, Chu Ning also felt that he had a pleasant personality and was a good friend.
So, at that moment, she was indeed wondering if Xu Xi was feeling unwell.
But the result of Chu Ning’s action was that Xu Xi lowered his head even more.
His slanted bangs were almost completely hanging down, covering his eyes.
His face had also become even more flushed.
Xu Xi kept feeling that there was more of a gulf between them, which made him feel a little unnatural when he was facing Chu Ning currently.
Especially the previous night, Chu Ning was so beautiful and had stunned everyone, while he was relatively unknown.
Was it really appropriate for Chu Ning, who was even more beautiful than the school belle, to come so close to him and show him concern?
He could even smell the faint scent of Chu Ning’s body. However, Chu Ning’s gentle greeting kept replaying in his mind, unable to dissipate.
“I’m not, I’m just, just…”
Xu Xi was inexplicably nervous. He did not know why.
However, in the next second, he was almost petrified.
Xu Xi only saw a white figure floating in front of him, followed by a cold and soft touch on his forehead.
“Hey, Xu Xi, your forehead is so hot. Are you having a fever?” Chu Ning touched Xu Xi’s forehead and retracted her palm, asking again.
“I’m not, I’m fine,” Xu Xi answered subconsciously. He still had not recovered from his shock.
“Alright, class will be over soon anyway. Rest well after you go back.” Chu Ning did not say any more and walked away.
Since the other party was not feeling well, she should not keep asking him questions so as not to irritate him.
Xu Xi looked at Chu Ning’s back, but his heart was beating rapidly.
He suddenly hit his chest hard.
“What am I thinking about…”
The class swiftly ended. Chu Ning waited for a taxi by the roadside after class. However, all the taxis seemed to have disappeared that night. Chu Ning waited for more than ten minutes, but none could be seen.
Yan Shen sat in his private car and quietly watched Chu Ning stand by the roadside trying to hail a taxi. Just as he was about to get out of the car and ask Chu Ning if she needed him to send her home, Chu Ning directly changed directions and walked in a direction away from her home.
At the same time, Xu Xi, who was about to open the car door and question Chu Ning, also silently stopped in his tracks and chose to watch her leave.
“Tonight’s taxi drivers are all sleeping at home. It really spoils my good mood.”
Seeing that there were no taxis passing by, Chu Ning decided not to return to the Chu family’s place that night. The library was near her villa, and she had always carried the key to the villa with her. Even if she walked over now, it was less than ten minutes away.
She had not stayed overnight in her new home yet!
“Target, new home! Let’s go!” A moment later, Chu Ning appeared at the door of her villa.
Opening the door, Chu Ning turned on all the lights in the hall, and in an instant, the entire hall was brightly lit.
Chu Ning directly sat down on the big soft sofa. Looking at the view in front of her, Chu Ning felt a sense of déjà vu.
It was as if she had returned to her life in the Ye family.
However, this time, she did not rely on anyone. All of this was achieved through her own hard work!
Just as Chu Ning closed her eyes and immersed herself in her little world, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.
“Hello, Second Brother.” Chu Ning answered the call from Chu Jing.
“Xiao Ning, are you back?” Chu Jing’s sincere voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Thank you for your concern, Second Brother. I was just about to tell you that my luck today is not very good. I waited for more than ten minutes, but there was no taxi. Then I went back to the villa that the school gave me. I plan to stay here for the night,” Chu Ning said with a smile.
“Okay. But is it safe for you to stay there alone tonight?” Chu Jing continued.
“Don’t worry, Second Brother. Wait a moment.” After saying that, Chu Ning hung up the phone. Then, she called Chu Jing via video call.
“Here, take a look. Second Brother, isn’t this place beautiful?”
Chu Ning changed the direction of the camera. Instantly, the view of the entire hall appeared on Chu Jing’s phone screen in real time.
“Sure, as long as you’re satisfied,” Chu Jing nodded, smiling.
“What I mean is, I want all of you to move in here.”
