Campus Alliance-Never Fall North Star

In the corridor, Jiang Yuning heard the news that Chu Ziqian was coming and ran over immediately.

She looked familiar with Ren Yanlei and Lu Moli and called out sweetly, "Hello, brother and sister, I'm here to look for Chu Ziqian!" The voice was clear and pleasant, as if carrying endless energy, instantly breaking the slightly dull atmosphere around them.

Lu Moli and Ren Yanlei smiled at each other and took the initiative to give her a step.

Ren Yanlei looked at Jiang Yuning and thought to himself: This girl looks very cheerful, maybe she can really bring some different changes to Ziqian.

Jiang Yuning shouted to Ren Shuqing in the ward, "Auntie, I'm looking for him!"

It was the first time that Ren Shuqing saw this girl. She looked at Jiang Yuning curiously, her eyes moving between her and Chu Ziqian. She understood something in an instant and said with a smile, "I was worrying too much. Go quickly!"

She thought to herself that this girl looked smart and she and Chu Ziqian would be a good match standing together. She just hoped that she could add some color to this dull day.

"No...it's not what you think..." Chu Ziqian was a little flustered as he was about to explain something. His face turned red in an instant and his eyes were evasive, as if he had done something wrong.

"Hurry! Out! Come! Out!" Jiang Yuning's voice was a little louder, with a hint of irresistibility. With her hands on her waist, she looked like a playful little hot pepper.

Chu Ziqian had no choice but to nod and follow her all the way to a coffee shop near the hospital.

In the cafe, soft music flows in the air, and the soothing melody seems to be able to soothe all the worries in people's hearts.

The light shines softly on every table, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.

Jiang Yuning didn't say anything the whole time, but just kept looking Chu Ziqian up and down, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, as if he was planning something.

Then, she raised her hand to call the waiter over, and without even looking at the menu, she directly ordered several of the store's signature drinks and snacks. It was obvious that she was a regular customer and was already familiar with the place.

Chu Ziqian looked at her calm movements and slowly opened his mouth, saying, "You came to me just to drink coffee?" Although it should be a question, he used the tone of a statement. He really couldn't guess Jiang Yuning's thoughts. He just felt that this girl's style of doing things was completely different from those he had met before. He felt both curious and a little overwhelmed.

Jiang Yuning shrugged her shoulders, casually took the boiled water that the waiter had brought to her before she took the order, took a sip, looked at him and said, "Of course not! I've been looking for you, but you didn't reply to my messages or answer my calls. Even if you answered, you either said "um" or "oh"!! Tell me, are you deliberately avoiding me?" There was a hint of complaint in her tone, and her slightly pouting lips made her look even cuter.

Then, she went straight to the point and said, "I know you like Shen Jiaqi. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that. I just want to ask, what are you thinking now? Do you need my help to pursue her?" She stared straight at Chu Ziqian, as if she wanted to see through his thoughts. Her bold and straightforward words made Chu Ziqian's eyes widen instantly!

"what are you saying!"

Chu Ziqian widened his eyes and said in shock: "Ren Qifeng is still lying on the hospital bed! You are saying this at this time? You are just making trouble!" He felt that Jiang Yuning's proposal was incredible, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart.

Jiang Yuning's eyes were bright as if they were glowing, she didn't care about Chu Ziqian's reaction at all, and said: "Making trouble? Don't be so angry, I'm just asking. Think about it, no one can tell when Ren Qifeng will wake up. If you still like Shen Jiaqi, I will help you, maybe I can let you get what you want sooner." As she spoke, she tapped the table lightly with her fingers. She looked so confident, as if everything was under her control.

Chu Ziqian: “…” He was choked by Jiang Yuning’s words and didn’t know how to respond. He just stared at her blankly, feeling mixed emotions. He was angry at her words, but also surprised at her boldness and directness.

Seeing that he didn't reply, Jiang Yuning continued, "Actually, I came here today because I wanted to tell you that I like you, too. Since you haven't taken any action, don't blame me for taking the initiative. Why don't we give it a try together? Maybe we can create some different sparks." Her voice was clear and loud, which sounded particularly abrupt in this coffee shop, and the guests around her cast curious glances at her.

After hearing her say this, Chu Ziqian didn't know how to respond.

For some reason, he felt that Jiang Yuning's serious look was a little funny, but he was a little panicked inside, as if a stone was thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples.

He continued her words, "Forget it. Don't make fun of me. We are not the same kind of people. We are not compatible."

To be honest, when Chu Ziqian saw Jiang Yuning for the first time, he thought she was a very good-looking type in terms of public aesthetics, with a slender figure, long chestnut curly hair, and very slender hands. There was an elegance in her every move. In that melee, she led the way for everyone without hesitation, and Chu Ziqian was very optimistic about this girl!

Chu Ziqian continued, "You and I are really not suitable! Both my parents are dead, and I have been living in Xu's house since I was a child. I have nothing, and I won't be able to change my career. My job is also very dangerous, and I might not be able to come back from a mission one day. If you follow me, you will only be scared, and your family will definitely not agree, so you'd better not waste your time on me. We really have no future!" He spoke out all his worries and concerns, trying to make Jiang Yuning back down. He didn't want to let this simple and lovely girl be involved in his life full of unknowns and dangers.

Jiang Yuning smiled, took a sip of coffee and said: "Chu Ziqian, your stories have been spread in the military for a long time. How can I not know if I ask around? So you don't have to tell me about the past. What I care about is your future! I want to fall in love with your future self!!" Her eyes were firm. She was not scared off by Chu Ziqian's words at all. Instead, she was full of expectations for the future.

"We have no future!" Chu Ziqian rolled his eyes, stammered "I'm sorry", and left.

He felt mixed emotions. He was at a loss about Jiang Yuning's bold confession and confused and hesitant about his future. It was as if at this moment, he was standing at a crossroads in his life, not knowing where to go.

Jiang Yuning looked at his departing back, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a determined smile. In her opinion, Chu Ziqian just hasn't accepted this relationship yet. She has enough patience and confidence to knock on the door of his heart!

"I've been to the gates of hell, so why should I be afraid that I can't pry open your door!" Jiang Yuning smiled and drank the rest of the coffee before leaving.

Half a month later, on an ordinary afternoon, the sun shone through the gaps in the ward curtains, casting a few golden rays of light, adding a bit of warmth to the entire ward.

Ren Qifeng's eyelids trembled slightly, and his eyes, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly opened quietly.

His eyes were a little confused at first, wandering in this familiar yet unfamiliar environment, and soon, they fixed on Shen Jiaqi not far away.

Although he was still lying on the hospital bed at this moment, he was no longer motionless like a sleeping sculpture as before. Instead, he turned his head slightly and looked straight at her. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, trying to smile completely, but seemed unable to do so due to his weak body.

Shen Jiaqi was sitting aside, concentrating on the rehabilitation plan she had prepared for Ren Qifeng. Suddenly, she seemed to feel a burning gaze and subconsciously raised her head.

When she looked into Ren Qifeng's awakening eyes, she froze instantly and the papers in her hands slipped out of her hand unconsciously.

"Ren--Qi Feng?" Shen Jiaqi was a little unbelievable. She rubbed her eyes, fearing that everything in front of her was an illusion caused by her long wait. After confirming that it was correct, she stood up suddenly and ran towards the bed in a hurry. The speed was so fast that it seemed like she was racing against time, fearing that this hard-won moment would suddenly disappear.

"Are you awake?" She stood beside the bed, holding Ren Qifeng's hand tightly with trembling hands, as if she was holding the whole world.
