The girl wore a white dress and a bright yellow sunhat, standing prettily beside the fence of the sports field.
Some people, just by standing there, become a sight to behold.
Behind her also stood a woman, holding an umbrella to shade her from the sun.
That was Yu Ningmeng, who was equally beautiful, but standing next to An Siyao, she inevitably became an accessory.
Students passing by wanted to get close, but they were all driven away by Yu Ningmeng's fierce gaze.
"Here to see you, go to her." Qin Youliang patted Xia Yu's shoulder, his face filled with undisguised jealousy.
It was him who told his classmates and attracted so much attention to Xia Yu.
Xia Yu felt a little uncomfortable, although he had been watched by more people during performances, the emotions of those watching and what he was showing were completely different realms.
If it wasn't for knowing that An Siyao was just a naive girl, Xia Yu would think she was a scheming woman, deliberately showing off to satisfy her vanity and capture his attention.
He walked toward An Siyao.
As he got closer, Xia Yu encountered Yu Ningmeng's piercing stare.
Yu Ningmeng hadn't been with An Siyao these past few days, she had been arguing with Yu Liang about whether or not to continue being the head maid since An Siyao went to college, and she just came back at noon.
When she returned, a maid told her that An Siyao went to school alone yesterday and didn't return until evening, so she felt something was wrong. At three in the afternoon, she caught An Siyao trying to sneak out, and after questioning her, she found out that An Siyao was going to meet a boy.
She was furious. She had only relaxed for two days, and An Siyao had been deceived by a man?
She was not against An Siyao dating, but two days was too quick!
That boy must have not used normal means!
All sorts of unconventional tactics flashed through her mind, and Yu Ningmeng couldn't determine which one An Siyao had fallen for, so she came along to see for herself.
After arriving, she discovered that the boy was an acquaintance.
He must have used this acquaintanceship to deceive my An Siyao!
Seeing An Siyao trot over and take the boy's hand, Yu Ningmeng's gaze became even sharper.
Xia Yu didn't pay attention to Yu Ningmeng's gaze. If he were Yu Ningmeng, he might do something even more excessive if he saw the girl he raised being deceived by someone else.
An Siyao stretched out one hand to Xia Yu's palm and raised the other, holding a bottle of mineral water.
After receiving the mineral water, Xia Yu looked at the palm seized by An Siyao, thinking about how he should open the bottle with one hand.
He looked at An Siyao, who was also looking at him.
Two seconds later, the girl tilted her head, indicating confusion.
"Hand." Xia Yu gestured to the hand An Siyao was holding.
However, An Siyao didn't understand, and she extended her empty hand to Xia Yu's face.
All right, then.
Xia Yu placed the water on An Siyao's hand, freed his own hand, and twisted the bottle cap.
After opening the cap, Xia Yu was ready to take the mineral water, but An Siyao had already offered it to his mouth.
Faced with the girl's expectant gaze, Xia Yu couldn't refuse. He symbolically took a sip before taking the water himself.
Following behind, Yu Ningmeng felt a bit of stomach ache. Both sides held hands to cooperate in opening a bottle of water, and it was already quite intimate to feed water!
Why did she have to watch her own An Siyao give out dog food with another man!
This was not the end. She followed the two, circled around the school, and at nearly six in the evening, Yu Ningmeng finally used the excuse that it was getting late to pull An Siyao, who wanted to go home with Xia Yu, away.
That night, she reported the incident to Yu Liang.
"How did they get together?" Yu Liang asked nervously.
"The young lady said it was love at first sight," Ningmeng replied.
"Didn't you say that Yao Yao and that boy have known each other for half a year?" Yu Liang was confused. Love at first sight after half a year of acquaintance?
"I don't know," Yu Ningmeng said, expressing her helplessness.
"Fine, pay attention to them these days. I trust you," Yu Liang handed the matter over to Yu Ningmeng. He decided to go and see his granddaughter after finishing his work if she was still with that guy.
On the morning of September 3rd, Xia Yu finished his breakfast and went to school for military training.
There was nothing important to do during the day, so Xia Yu didn't ask Tu Guan Yu to do it for him; he experienced the military training himself.
Looking at the familiar standing-at-ease and marching, Xia Yu couldn't help but recall his own military training days. At that time... he was honestly training, going back to the dormitory to play games. There was no memorable part at all.
It was a sad thing indeed.
With a sigh, Xia Yu began to feel bored. He thought about going somewhere else and letting Tu Guan Yu come and train on his behalf.
At this time, the instructor allowed the students to have a break.
Yi Shiyu brought two classmates to buy water at the small store. Over at the girls' side, four girls also went to buy water, led by a short-haired girl.
The short-haired girl was the monitor candidate from the girls' side. If nothing went wrong, she would be the monitor.
There were a total of thirty people in the class, eleven boys and nineteen girls. Yi Shiyu had no popularity among girls. Even if all the boys voted for him, he would only have eleven votes.
If another girl would run against the short-haired girl and split the girls' votes, there might be a chance for Yi Shiyu. Unfortunately, there was only one candidate from the girl's side.
Feeling bored analyzing the class situation, Xia Yu was about to leave, but Qin Youliang and four classmates surrounded him.
These were the students who had helped Xia Yu at the music academy. Although Xia Yu didn't need their help, he still remembered their kindness.
"Brother Yu, teach us!" The five sat next to Xia Yu, their faces serious. "We also want to get out of our single status as soon as possible. We don't need to succeed in an hour, just within a day is good enough!"
"...I can't teach you this."
"Brother Yu, you are too modest. We saw with our own eyes how that anticipated beauty from the music academy was charmed by you." The five moved forward again, showing their persistence and determination that Xia Yu must teach them or they wouldn't leave.
Xia Yu felt a headache, because if he were to tell the truth, he would have to teach them to trigger the girl's body first, which obviously wasn't possible.
"Everyone, come and get water!" Yi Shiyu's voice came.
Getting water allowed Xia Yu to momentarily get rid of the five people.
However, the five did not forget nor give up; after obtaining and drinking the water, they followed Xia Yu once again.
Xia Yu was already thinking about what kind of lie he needed to come up with.
At this time, the short-haired girl who was the class leader in reserve and also coming back from the girls' side, came in front of Xia Yu.
