Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs

Chapter 294 The Impoverished Golden Phoenix 07

Others might assume he was happy because of the gifts, but Lou Wujiu knew perfectly well that wasn't the case.

"I need to go back to the old house. I'll pick you up another day to take these things back with me."

He lowered his head slightly. "It's getting late. Go back to your dorm and get some rest."

Wu Tongxue straightened up. "I'm leaving."

Lou Wujiu looked at him and said, "I will follow the doctor's orders."

Wu Tongxue nodded slightly.

She turned around, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Lou Wujiu watched his retreating figure, thinking, "He shouldn't be angry anymore, right?"

……

Wu Tongxue has been busy with her studies these days and almost forgot about Xiao Jinghan, so she hasn't added his contact information.

I ran into him again on my way to the cafeteria with my roommate.

Why is he at school?

Xiao Jinghan saw him from afar and laughed inwardly, annoyed that he hadn't made a move for so many days.

When did he become so uncharming?

He greeted the people around him, parted ways with them, and walked towards Wu Tongxue.

"Wu, you've kept me waiting for quite a while," he said with a smile.

Wu Tongxue smelled the familiar perfume scent again, sweet and alluring, which perfectly matched the impression he gave off.

He apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy lately."

He didn't have his business card with him, so he took out his phone and hesitated before saying to Xiao Jinghan, "If you don't mind, I can scan your QR code now."

Xiao Jinghan took out her phone, decisively added the person, and would deal with the rest later.

The profile picture of the newly added friend is a simple black and white line drawing, and the nickname is a simple "乌" (wu).

The fox-eyed man smiled, put down his phone, and said, "Since we've run into each other, let's have a meal together."

"I haven't eaten at the cafeteria here before. Do you have any recommendations?"

Turning to her silent roommate He Si, she asked, "Hey, do you mind if I come along?"

He Si shook his head. He was fine; it was mainly up to his roommate.

Wu Tongxue looked at the two of them and said, "Let's go to the first canteen."

On the way, Wu Tongxue asked Xiao Jinghan, "What are you doing at school?"

Xiao Jinghan tossed her hair, crossed her arms, glanced at him, and said with a smile, "I have relatives studying here, so I came to visit."

She winked at him.

Wu Tongxue looked away. "That's quite a coincidence."

Xiao Jinghan smiled.

Is that a coincidence?

He orchestrated the chance encounter.

He had never been so preoccupied with someone before, even dreaming about him at night.

To solve this problem, I decided to just go out and bump into them.

He believed that there was no one he couldn't win over.

"The duck blood and vermicelli soup here is good, and the bibimbap over there is also tasty."

Xiao Jinghan looked back, "What are you eating?"

"I'll have duck blood and vermicelli soup."

"Then I'll have one too."

This time of day is past the peak crowd time, so it's easy to find an empty table.

In the end, the three of them ordered three bowls of duck blood vermicelli soup and sat down at the same table.

He Si is rather socially awkward, so she just kept eating with her head down.

Xiao Jinghan wasn't a picky eater. "It really is delicious."

“I’ve eaten at one of these places before. They serve soup dumplings with the soup. I might go and try it again sometime.”

I think you'll like it too.

Wu Tongxue: "If you have time."

"Are you busy with your studies lately? My relative is studying computer science, also a senior, and is currently looking for an internship."

The two started chatting over the meal.

He Si felt they were talking too much, so she refused her roommates' attempts to talk to her and offer help. Her social anxiety kicked in, and she quickly ran away after finishing her meal.

"Well, I still have homework to finish, so I'll go first. You guys enjoy your meal."

Wu Tongxue nodded, understanding in her heart, "Okay."

He Si quickly left.

Xiao Jinghan suddenly chuckled, "Your roommate is quite nice."

They would occasionally mention him when they talked, but he wished no one would mention him, so they stopped bringing him up.

Wu Tongxue nodded. His roommate was indeed a good person. "He's just a bit socially awkward."

Xiao Jinghan smiled. "Really not considering coming here?"

He had made a brief inquiry and learned that the person in front of him came from a rural area, had applied to B University for an agricultural major with excellent college entrance examination scores, had excellent academic performance, and had already been recommended for postgraduate studies.

But as I said before, it doesn't make money.

His current part-time job is barely enough to cover his tuition and living expenses. If he continues to be so honest, he can forget about anything else.

Xiao Jinghan took a step back. "How about you work for me while you're pursuing your master's degree?"

Wu Tongxue shook his head again, trying to multitask, unsure if he would be affected.

"Alright." Xiao Jinghan sighed softly, having anticipated this outcome.

"This is the first time I've ever been rejected like this."

Wu Tongxue didn't speak, and lowered her head to drink her soup.

Changing the subject, Xiao Jinghan said, "I heard you have a boyfriend?"

"Correct."

How do you think I compare to your boyfriend?

Wu Tongxue stopped drinking the soup and looked up at him.

Xiao Jinghan was also looking at him, and said in a teasing tone, "If someone like me can be rejected, I'm curious what kind of boyfriend you must have?"

"Is he more handsome than me? Or is he better at sweet-talking?"

"Cough—" With Lou Wujiu's mouth, it's a miracle he doesn't drive people crazy.

"You don't need to make comparisons."

After all, one was a stranger she wasn't very familiar with, and the other was her boyfriend, with whom she was much closer.

Xiao Jinghan thought to herself.

"Next time I come, I'll try the bibimbap you recommended." Xiao Jinghan left a note as they parted.

Wu Tongxue was going back to her dormitory, and Xiao Jinghan, being from outside the school, separated from her.

Someone filmed the scene before they parted ways.

……

Lou Wujiu came to pick up Wu Tongxue for a date, and parked his car near the school.

I could still faintly smell the Chinese medicine on him, and I frowned in annoyance.

He stood by the car, enjoying the breeze.

After drinking Chinese medicine for a while, his pale face finally regained some color, no longer looking as white as a vampire, and no longer appearing particularly sinister and eerie.

I had already composed myself before Wu Tongxue arrived.

Today, Lou Wujiu specially chose a royal blue shirt, paired with a pure black casual suit, looking noble and handsome.

Autumn is bleak, and the autumn wind is getting colder.

Wu Tongxue wore a jacket and black trousers, mainly for warmth.

Walking over, Wu Tongxue first looked Lou Wujiu over, then touched the back of her hand to his neck, saying, "His body temperature is higher than before."

He used to be as pale as a vampire and had a low body temperature, but he's finally gotten better.

Lou Wujiu took the opportunity to grab his hand and pull him onto the back seat.

Without thinking twice, I hugged and kissed him first.

The driver raised the barrier early and focused on driving.

Lou Wujiu twitched his nose and sensed a different fragrance, not Wu Tongxue's body scent.

It has a sweet, cloying fragrance.

I've never smelled it before.

It was very shallow; someone else probably brushed against it accidentally, so he didn't pay any attention to it.

"Let's go see a play first. Where would you like to go next? To a hot spring or to the flower market?"

Wu Tongxue hugged his neck, "I haven't thought about it yet."

He yawned as he spoke, "I didn't sleep well last night. You decide, I'll rest for a while."

After saying that, she leaned against him and closed her eyes to rest.
