"Are you looking for me?" Xia Siyu asked with a tilted head and a smile.
Bo Yan simply said, "You didn't come to class. You'll lose points on the final exam."
Xia Siyu responded with an "Oh" and then asked directly, "I'm hungry. Do you want to go have a meal together?"
Bo Yan should have declined, but his body reacted more quickly than his mind. He heard himself agreeing with a nod, "Sure."
Xia Siyu had never been in a relationship, and Bo Yan had never chased after a girl. The two walked side by side comfortably, and when they ran into Bo Yan's friend Han Yifan, he teased with a suggestive wiggle of his eyebrows, "Your girlfriend is very pretty."
Just as Bo Yan was about to deny it, Xia Siyu introduced herself with a smile, "Are you Bo Yan's friend? My name is Xia Siyu. I'm pleased to meet you."
Bo Yan wanted to deny it but feared it would embarrass her. This silence seemed like tacit consent, silently proclaiming the nature of their relationship without a word.
