Xiao Yize’s smile mirrored the mischievousness of his yellow-faced emoji.
“Lin Ran, it’s been a while since you’ve trained. I wonder how much your martial arts skills have rusted. Let’s spar sometime this week.”
Lin Ran was speechless.
He felt it wasn’t sparring but rather an invitation to be dismantled.
Quickly, Lin Ran sent a red envelope to Xiao Yize, hoping it would appease any lingering threats.
“Congratulations, Young Master Xiao, on winning over the beauty!”
“I’ll save a seat at the kiddie table for your engagement party!”
“When’s the wedding? I’ll bring the Civil Affairs Bureau to you!”
“You and Miss Gu are a match made in heaven!”
After a long silence, Lin Ran sensed a reprieve and showered Xiao Yize and Gu Jin with compliments about their compatibility.
Finally, after enduring ten minutes of Lin Ran’s praise, Xiao Yize relented.
During this time, Xiao Yize skillfully replaced all his smiling emojis in chats with Gu Yang using his formidable hacking skills.
Gu Yang was left speechless.
However, she grasped Xiao Yize’s meaning.
Gu Yang forwarded him a guide titled “Understanding Modern WeChat Expressions for Young People.”
Xiao Yize replied with a “handshake” emoji.
Xiao Yize updated his relationship status with everyone in his WeChat contacts.
Tong Wan suggested he share it on his Moments.
Despite being in a vegetative state for 18 years, Tong Wan had been eager to integrate into society since waking up. With time on her hands, she kept up with modern trends better than Xiao Yize.
Thus, Xiao Yize, who rarely posted on his Moments, made his first post.
Accompanying the post was a photo of two hands clasped under an orange street lamp, secretly taken by Xiao Yize as he walked Gu Jin back to her dorm.
The caption was a love letter excerpt from Shen Congwen to his wife:
[Between mountains and rivers, I want to hold your hand and cross this bridge. On the bridge, green leaves and red flowers bloom, and below it, houses flow. One end of the bridge is black hair, and the other end is white hair.]
He wanted to grow old with his Miss Gu.
It was late at night, but for young people, staying up late was common. Likes and comments flooded Xiao Yize’s WeChat Moments.
The entire circle of young elites from wealthy families in the capital went into a frenzy.
The heir of the Xiao family, known for his dedication to the country and aloofness towards women, was in love.
If they hadn’t known Xiao Yize majored in computer science, they might have suspected his account had been hacked.
Ye Qingzi didn’t have Xiao Yize’s WeChat, but her brother, Ye Chenhan, did.
Ye Chenhan sent her a screenshot of Xiao Yize’s Moments to dissuade her.
In addition to Ye Chenhan, Lin Ran and others in their social circle who weren’t fond of Ye Qingzi also sent her screenshots of Xiao Yize’s Moments.
Each screenshot felt like a stab to her heart.
By the time she saw the last one, she felt a numbness settling in.
However, she was still unwilling to accept it.
She really hoped that she was the one holding Brother Yize’s hand.
She heard that Auntie Tong Wan had woken up. Auntie Tong Wan had always been fond of her when she was young. If Tong Wan knew about her feelings for Brother Yize, she would surely lend her support.
After all, she and Brother Yize were childhood sweethearts.
Following the conclusion of military training, there remained the military training summary, the school opening ceremony, and the freshman ball.
The military training summary and the opening ceremony were scheduled for the same morning. It rained heavily, and the school distributed disposable raincoats to the new students, ensuring the events went on rain or shine.
The military training summary featured freshmen showcasing military boxing skills. The Physics Department was chosen to perform due to their exceptional performance during the training period.
