"Yue'er, your fiancé has been waiting for quite a while. If you have something to do, you can go ahead, don't mind us," Shen Minyao suddenly said.
Bai Yue'er was taken aback, her gaze shifted back to Shen Minyao's face, who remained calm with a faint smile on her lips, portraying the image of a considerate elder sister.
Bai Yue'er felt extremely uncomfortable by her words.
Xu Xiuwen also agreed, "Yeah, Bai Yue'er, brother Shi is waiting. If you have something to attend to, you should go ahead."
Seeing Xu Xiuwen echoing the sentiment, Bai Yue'er felt utterly annoyed, especially seeing his expression indicating he was eager for her to leave.
With a snort, she turned and walked away.
After taking a few steps, she noticed that Shi Xiangming was still standing there, so she shouted to him, "Everyone else is telling us to leave, why are you so oblivious?"
Only then did Shi Xiangming react, smiling as he said, "Coming, coming."
After that, he turned to Xu Xiuwen and the others, "Well then, I'll leave with Yue'er first."
Bai Yue'er continued walking without stopping to wait for him.
However, Shi Xiangming happily caught up with her.
After the two left, Xu Xiuwen was holding Tang Weiwei's hand the whole time.
He discreetly scratched her palm a couple of times.
He knew Tang Weiwei was ticklish, so when she looked at him, he subtly winked at her.
Tang Weiwei immediately understood his meaning, her face instantly turning as red as blood.
Xu Xiuwen's intention was to be alone with Tang Weiwei. By scratching her palm, he hoped she would ask her roommate to leave.
However, Tang Weiwei was extremely shy, even thinner-skinned than silk, and couldn't bring herself to speak up.
Xu Xiuwen noticed her hesitation, feeling somewhat helpless, but this was also one of the things he liked about Tang Weiwei, so he didn't get upset.
"Cough! Cough!"
Xu Xiuwen suddenly coughed twice, catching the attention of the two women.
Immediately, he calmly said, "I have something to consult with Weiwei. If you two don't mind, you can go ahead without waiting for us."
Shen Minyao had already noticed his and Tang Weiwei's subtle actions, and Tang Weiwei's reaction hadn't escaped her eyes either.
She knew Xu Xiuwen's words were just excuses, but she didn't expose it, so she remained silent.
Su Yanyan, on the other hand, was not as observant and hadn't noticed any details.
After hearing Xu Xiuwen's words, she asked in confusion, "DaDa, what do you want to consult sister Weiwei about? Sister Minyao and I are free now, so tell us. Maybe sister Weiwei doesn't know, but we might."
Xu Xiuwen had to shift his gaze away from Tang Weiwei's lips upon hearing Su Yanyan's words.
His excuse was originally made up on the spot, and he didn't expect Su Yanyan to actually ask.
In such a short time, he couldn't think of a better excuse, so he blurted out, "I've taken too many days off before and fallen behind in all my subjects. I plan to consult Weiwei about studying."
Upon hearing this, Tang Weiwei lowered her head and smiled.
Shen Minyao also chuckled.
Only Su Yanyan felt puzzled, not knowing what the sisters were laughing about, thinking they were making fun of Xu Xiuwen falling behind in his studies.
Worried that Xu Xiuwen might feel inferior and upset, she hurriedly comforted, "DaDa, don't worry. As long as you're willing to work hard, you can catch up with your studies. Besides sister Weiwei, I'll also help you, DaDa."
Xu Xiuwen could only smile bitterly and nod, "I know."
Shen Minyao furrowed her delicate brows lightly and teased, "Xu Xiuwen, so you're actually eager to learn. Are you planning to consult Weiwei about linear algebra, or learning a foreign language?"
Su Yanyan didn't realize Shen Minyao was joking; she thought sister Minyao was just as curious as she was.
"Um..." Xu Xiuwen rubbed his nose, "I think I'll pass on consulting her after all."
Shen Minyao's mouth slightly curled up at the words.
Su Yanyan, surprised, asked, "Why, DaDa?"
Xu Xiuwen didn't explain, just shook his head.
Shen Minyao felt it wasn't worth teasing further.
She put away her smile and said to Su Yanyan, "Yanyan, let's go. I need to buy something, will you accompany me?"
"Sure, Sister Minyao," Su Yanyan immediately nodded, without much thought.
Shen Minyao pulled her towards the direction of the dormitory building. Just a few steps out, Su Yanyan exclaimed, "Sister Minyao, you forgot about Sister Weiwei."
Shen Minyao didn't explain either, just kept pulling her forward.
After watching the two girls leave, Xu Xiuwen looked at Tang Weiwei and immediately frowned, asking, "Why didn't you speak up for me just now? Were you intentionally making fun of me?"
"I didn't," Tang Weiwei waved her hand, wanting to explain.
But Xu Xiuwen didn't give her a chance to explain, sternly saying, "No need to explain, I can see that's what you were thinking."
Tang Weiwei felt very wronged.
Xu Xiuwen glanced around, noticing quite a few people nearby. After a moment of thought, he pulled Tang Weiwei towards the campus grove.
Tang Weiwei let him pull her, without resisting.
After arriving at the grove and seeing no one around, Xu Xiuwen pulled her to a grassy area, leaning against a tree and sitting down.
Tang Weiwei finally reacted, guessing Xu Xiuwen's intentions. For a moment, her limbs felt weak.
After sitting down, Xu Xiuwen pulled the girl into his arms.
He embraced her from behind, with his hands resting on her abdomen.
Tang Weiwei's body felt particularly soft, with a fragrant scent.
Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but ask, "Did you spray perfume?"
As soon as the words came out, he regretted it. Tang Weiwei wasn't Shen Minyao; how could she afford to spend money on perfume?
Tang Weiwei didn't think too much about it and shook her head, saying, "No, I didn't."
"Then why do you smell so nice?"
Xu Xiuwen found that as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Weiwei's ears turned red.
He remembered a saying he had heard in his previous life and said, "Weiwei, do you know why I can smell a fragrance from you even though you haven't put on perfume?"
Blushing, Tang Weiwei shook her head.
Xu Xiuwen gently chuckled and said, "It's said that in biology, some people are born with a genetic defect, and for them, body odor isn't unpleasant but rather smells like a fragrance."
At first, Tang Weiwei listened attentively, but as soon as she heard the words "body odor," she immediately understood Xu Xiuwen's implication.
Ignoring her embarrassment, she couldn't help but retort, "But I don't have body odor, you're making things up."
Xu Xiuwen stared at her, neither speaking nor expressing an opinion.
Tang Weiwei was getting anxious. She really didn't have body odor, how could her roommates not have told her if she did?
Xu Xiuwen underestimated the impact of the words "body odor" on Tang Weiwei, or rather, how much they could hurt a girl.
In less than three seconds,
Tang Weiwei was on the verge of tears from feeling wronged.
Her eyes turned red, feeling extremely aggrieved, yet she was still trying to explain to Xu Xiuwen, "Xu Xiuwen, I really don't have body odor, believe me."
Xu Xiuwen couldn't hold back anymore and burst into laughter.
This laughter completely confused Tang Weiwei.
With wide eyes, she looked at Xu Xiuwen, unsure of what was going on.
