"Hey, Meng Ying..."

"Hm? So late and you're still awake? What's up?"

"Nothing, just wanted to chat with you..."

"Chat about Xiaofan?"

"I... sigh, he told me this afternoon that he's leaving for a few days..."

"Hm? And then what? You couldn't sleep over it? Worried that once he leaves, he'll vanish for another year or half?"

"No... I..."

"Stop fooling yourself and me. Don't I know you two? You've always been thinking about him, never forgotten."

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'm hanging up."

"Okay, okay, I won't say another word. So, did he tell you where he's going? When he'll be back?"

"No, I didn't give him a chance to speak..."

"Oh dear, what now? Even if you call me, I have no idea." Chen Mengying said helplessly.

"Yeah, I just wanted to have a chat with you..."

"Oh, I get it. You want me to call and ask for you? Ask Xiaofan where he's going? When he's coming back?"

"I, I... it's not like that, actually, I..."

Facing Chen Mengying's inquiries, Liu Siyan became speechless. Could her feelings for Xiaofan really be that transparent? No way to hide them in front of Meng Ying?

"Alright then, I'll hang up first and call Li Kuo to ask. Wait for my news, it won't take long, don't sleep yet."

'Beep beep beep beep...'

Listening to the busy signal on the phone, Liu Siyan gently put down the phone, then hugged a teddy bear beside the bed.

"Little bear, isn't that guy annoying, should we stop paying attention to him, right? Mm, can't pay attention... even if we do, it shouldn't be that easy for him..."

Night slowly deepened on the campus of Capital University, each day's start seemed so full of life.

Youth, always the most vivid representation of vitality.

But... some folks are just that lazy.

For instance, those sitting on the grass having breakfast right now...

"I'm so tired."

"You don't have class, right? What are you doing at school so early?"

"You're not having class either, so what are you doing here so early?" Li Kuo retorted.

"Just wanted to see her as early as possible each day."

"Hey... Meng Ying called me last night, asking about our plans to leave."

"Hm? Meng Ying? How did she know?"

"Didn't you tell Liu Siyan yesterday that you're planning to leave for a few days?"

"Yeah, but she didn't give me a chance to continue speaking," Xiaofan said helplessly.

"So... you mentioned you're leaving, she didn't want to hear it in person, and then she definitely thought about it and couldn't sleep last night, then called the old class rep, who eventually called me..."

"Really? Did you tell her?"

"No."

"Why not?" Xiaofan asked, seemingly anxious.

"Hey, this is for your own good. What's up? Are you that worried Liu Siyan didn't sleep well? Where's your intelligence being used?"

"What do you mean?" Xiaofan asked, puzzled.

"When the old class rep called me, I instantly guessed it was Liu Siyan's idea. So I discussed it with the old class rep, saying if she wants to know, let her come and ask you directly. Ha ha, isn't it giving you another chance to meet up?"

It makes sense, that kid is quite right.

Xiaofan also thought that if they gradually spent more time together, perhaps they could slowly rekindle old feelings or maybe have a change of heart.

"Watch, by noon Liu Siyan and the old class rep will definitely show up to invite us for lunch. She might hold out until noon, but she'll definitely appear by afternoon."

"Yes, well done, it seems you didn't work with me in vain for a while."

"Get lost, how could you say that? When it comes to your own relationship issues, your IQ is about to become negative."

"Tch..."

As Li Kuo said, Liu Siyan felt annoyed about having to personally ask Xiaofan after hearing about it last night.

However, if she doesn't get clear answers, insomnia won't be just a one-night thing.

Left with no other choice, she discussed with Chen Mengying about whether to go find Xiaofan to clarify things today.

And what excuse to use? What reason could get her the answers she wants without changing her stance?

Chen Mengying suggested a method: invite them to dinner, including Li Kuo of course.

The plan was for Chen Mengying to propose going for a meal, first find Li Kuo, then Xiaofan, and casually ask during the dinner encounter, making it natural and seamless.

No time to lose, indeed, they partnered up at noon and went to the department building where Xiaofan was located. They found Li Kuo right away.

However, unexpectedly, Xiaofan wasn't with Li Kuo.

"Siyan Miss? Why are you here?"

"Hm? No big deal? Just looking for someone."

Couldn't find Ye Xiaofan, but saw Ye Shaolong. Being in the same department, meeting up was a normal thing.

"Oh, then I won't disturb you, I'll be off first."

Today's Ye Shaolong was unexpectedly easy to talk to, without his usual tendencies of pestering Liu Siyan for a date.

Only to see Ye Shaolong quickly walk under a tree, dialing his sister's phone number: "Sis, I just saw Liu Siyan down by our department building. That guy Li Kuo is here too, definitely looking for that kid Ye Xiaofan."

"Hm? Truly a godsend for me."

Ye Weiwei never expected such a good chance to appear, and immediately dialed another number.

"Hi, Xiaolan, are you over by your department now? Great, you know Liu Siyan, right? Later, just accidentally pass by her and do this..."

Having laid out the drama, Ye Weiwei satisfactorily hung up the phone, and sent a message to Huang Shanshan nearby, and standing next to Huang Shanshan, who else but Xiaofan?

"Li Kuo, where did Xiaofan go?"

"How would I know? Just after class, I went to the restroom, then he was gone. Let me try calling him..." Li Kuo said, ready to pull out his phone.

At this moment, the person arranged by Ye Weiwei conveniently walked by Liu Siyan and others.

"Hey, who was that guy just now with Huang Shanshan?"

"Him? Seems like a freshman in the department, named Ye Xiaofan... pretty handsome, do you think they're already dating?"

"Can't be, haven't heard when Shanshan and Ye Xiaofan got acquainted."

"I'm betting they are, just saw them tugging each other behind the small woods, not showing a hint of love."

"Wow, really?"

These girls chatted like gossiping, unintended from the speakers but intent from the listeners. But none expected that this was a play just designed by Ye Weiwei moments ago. The effect was obvious—inadvertently, Liu Siyan heard the news, immediately turning towards the small woods.
