ishly shook her mother's arm, her voice sweet and pleading: "Mom, I'm serious."Ning's father glanced at the time and, seeing that the young man was still upstairs, frowned and said to the maid beside...As soon as the boy spoke, everyone at the table looked confused and puzzled.

Since they weren't familiar with him, who did this campus heartthrob know They looked at each other, all wanting to know the answer.

As soon as Ning Shu finished speaking, she saw the faint gloom in the young man's eyes from the corner of her eye. She couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.

Mingming had initially told Pei Sannan to stop bothering her. But when he distanced himself, his expression was icy cold.

Pei Sannan's eyes sank for just a moment, then he quickly returned to his usual noble and elegant demeanor. He walked over and said, "I've been in Di Si for three years after all, as the student council president..."

He paused for a moment, his low voice tinged with magnetism: "I still remember Ning classmate's...and the impression was quite deep...."

His sapphire eyes swept across the room, making every girl present shiver slightly. His gaze then landed on Chen Fei: "When you gave your speech at the freshman orientation ceremony..."

Pei Sisun was slow and deliberate, and though he seemed rather aloof. But because of this distance, when he said such things, it was surprisingly shocking.

Especially in that moment of silence at the end of the previous sentence, it was impossible not to feel a sense of something more. He and Ning Shu were not just acquaintances; they seemed to share some kind of history.

Chen Fei was even more surprised and honored. He hadn't expected Pei Shao to remember him, a small figure like him, from their first year of high school. He quickly stood up and said, "Pei Senior has always been my idol, and he is even a legend among students at Dis Imperial."

Pei Sannan remained silent, his gaze falling upon Ning Shu. He then subtly retracted his gaze and shifted it to the wine bottle on the table. His thin lips curved into a slight arc as he spoke in a cold tone, "Then I won't disturb you. Have fun."

By the time they reached the second floor.

Everyone retracted their gazes, some exclaimed in surprise, “Seeing the photos on the forum already thought he was handsome, but seeing him up close, he’s even more handsome.”

"Otherwise, she wouldn't have earned the title of school heartthrob as soon as she entered Jiang University." One girl was still stuck in the aftermath of the sudden visual impact and sighed, "It's a pity that she already has a boyfriend."

Another girl hesitated and said, "But I heard that Pei Xiaochao doesn't plan to get engaged at all. It is said that the woman is just the daughter of a business partner...."

"So, is Pèi still single" The girl blushed and said, "I wonder if I have a chance..."

But Ning Shu was taken aback by these words.

"Ning Shu, what's wrong with you" Chen Fei turned his head and asked, "Aren't you really close to Shao Pei"

He hesitated, then said, "But I see him with you... he seems..."

More than just acquaintances.

Chen Fei wouldn't foolishly think that Pei Sannan came over to greet them because he was being friendly. It was purely coincidental because they were from the same school. The other party only mentioned him as a casual remark.

He was clearly coming for Ning Shu.

Chen Fei felt that the atmosphere between the two was a little off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.

Ning Shu came back to her senses and said faintly, "I'm not familiar with him. I left the student union after a few months."

He lowered his eyes.

Even if Pei Sinan wasn't actually engaged, what does it have to do with him

Chen Fei could tell the guy really didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he started changing the subject.

...

Several seniors in the class could tell that Pei Sannan's mood seemed off. Though he was graceful and well-mannered, there was always a hint of gloom in his blue eyes.

It seems like it started a while ago.

They couldn't help but speculate that Ning Shu might have offended Pei Sinan back in high school.

One senior said, "I heard Ning Shu knows Zhang Qi, a junior from the third year."

They instantly understood that Zhang Qi was gay. Since Ning Shu was close to him, maybe he was gay too. And everyone at Jiang Dali was saying that Pei Sinan was homophobic and didn't like homosexuals.

Maybe the two of them had some unpleasant things happen back when they were in high school.

As expected, hearing the name Zhang Qi.

A senior said, "Zhang Qi's family is also quite wealthy. He came out in his first year of college. He had a boyfriend, and later they broke up with a lot of commotion, so everyone has heard about it."

Of course, compared to Pei Sannan, who was practically a nobleman standing right before them, those with ordinary backgrounds were nothing special.

He continued, "I heard Zhang Qi recently got a new boyfriend..."

He didn't say the name out loud. But his meaning was clear as day.

Pei Sinnan's brow furrowed, his tone cold and unfeeling as he uttered, "Is that so"

His tone was flat, yet it sent a chill down the spines of several people.

...

Ning Shu kept eating the barbecue, and Chen Fei poured him a glass of beer.

He was taken aback and just about to say that he didn't drink much.

But Chen Fei and the others had already stood up, and Ning Shu didn't want to disturb their fun at this time. After hesitating for a moment, he still stood up and clinked his glass with theirs.

"Cheers! To a vibrant and colorful life at Jiangda, and to graduating soon and achieving our ambitions."

"I also wish I could find a handsome boyfriend. I don't need him to be as handsome as School Prince Pei, just half as handsome would be great."

"Don't even think about it! Pei Xiaocao is so handsome, he's practically a god!"

Ning Shu didn't speak, she just drank the wine in front of her.

He quietly ate his food, and few people noticed that his face had begun to flush slightly.

After all, they didn't hold back since they only went out occasionally. When it was getting dark, they finally finished their meal and drinks. Chen Fei had a good tolerance for alcohol and wasn't that drunk, but the other guys were already quite tipsy.

"Ning Shu."

Chen Fei called out to the somewhat quiet boy sitting in his place.

The other party took a while before slowly raising their head. They looked at him with a slightly puzzled expression.

Chen Fei only then noticed something was amiss. He took a closer look at Ning Shu and saw that he was looking at him, but his eyes were misty and somewhat blurred.

I immediately realized that the other person was drunk.

Chen Fei couldn't help but press his head, he said to himself how could Ning Shu be so quiet all the time

The girls didn't drink, so it wasn't a problem. Chen Fei called them a car and wrote down the license plate number before coming back to the barbecue restaurant.

Several boys lay sprawled in their seats, looking like they didn't want to move.

Just as Chen Fei felt a headache coming on, a few people came down from the upstairs.

It turned out that Pei Sannan and the others had already made arrangements.

I saw the boy's gaze shift and glance at the boy sitting quietly in his seat. He then stopped, walked over, and asked, "Are you drunk"

Chen Fei saw that although he was asking himself, his deep, mixed blue eyes were fixed on Ning Shu.

"Well, I'm drunk," he said subconsciously. "I was just about to send them back, Senior Pei."

Pei Sannan looked up and let the people who came with him go first.

Then, slowly and deliberately, he said, “There are five of them in total. You shouldn't find it easy to take care of, should you”

Chen Fei chuckled wryly and said, "I don't know how their tolerance for alcohol is so bad one by one."

Pei Sannan walked over, his tone carrying an almost imperceptible pressure: "I'm just going back to school, and I have some things to discuss with Ning Shu, so I'll take her."

As he spoke, he reached out to grab the boy sitting in his place.

Pei Sannan's gaze fell on the other person's slender, fair neck. His Adam's apple moved slightly, and his eyes dimmed a little.

When Chen Fei saw this, he immediately hesitated.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his expression. Pei Sinnan's voice was flat as he asked, "What"

Chen Fei's scalp tightened. He finally felt the difference in treatment between the boy before him and his previous demeanor. Although Pei Sinan's attitude had been aloof in front of everyone, it gave off an air of gentlemanly politeness.

But now, the other party's coldness was blatantly revealed.

Under those mixed-blue eyes, Chen Fei felt the pressure doubled.

He quickly shook his head and said, " ...It's too much trouble for Senior Pei."

Pei Sinan's eyes flickered, already grasping the boy's wrist with a warning that was barely perceptible: "I was his student council president and senior. Do you really think I would do anything to him"

Chen Fei's scalp tingled. He glanced at Ning Shu and sighed inwardly.

"If Senior Pei has said so, then it's a bother."

Ning Shu, although drunk, was not completely unconscious. The moment he was grabbed, he regained some awareness.

The lights were a bit harsh.

He looked at Pei Sinan's face up close, and Ning Shu was a little dazed.

He stared blankly at the boy before him.

almost thought I was dreaming.

Ning Shu lowered her eyes until she was led out of the barbecue restaurant, then came back to herself.

Although Pei Sinan's face in front of me looked somewhat similar, it didn't seem like he was dreaming.

Ning Shu suddenly had a surge of strength from somewhere, he shook off Pei Sinan's hand.

The young man stood there, looking over. His eyes darkened slightly: "What are you doing"

Ning Shu's head felt a little dizzy. He had only drunk one cup, but Chen Fei poured him another, and he drank two in total. He wasn't good with alcohol to begin with, and even now, looking at Pei Sinan's face...

It all feels so surreal.

A cold wind whipped against Ning Shu's face. He looked over, his eyes calm as he said, "I was wondering what you were doing, senior."

Pei Sannan didn't speak, only clutched the boy's hand tighter.

He said, “I was just thinking about something.”

His blue eyes were somewhat heavy as he asked, "Did I ever kiss you when we were dating"

When Ning Shu heard this.

"You care that we kissed" he pulled at his lip, almost doubting he'd heard right.

A car pulled up beside them.

Pei Sannan held onto the person without letting go: "Get in the car first."

Ning Shu withdrew her hand and said word by word, "Senior, you forgot something. We've already broken up."on scared people.Ning Shu was silent for a moment, then said, "It's nothing."He and Xie Wenqiu divorced, although the two are now living together for the sake of their baby. However, he feels that it'...
