Over these past several months, Xiao Rou had been devoted to her studies, and as her roommate and friend, I could tell that her mood was far from good.
"Okay." Tan Yunrou had been drawing back for the past several months, hesitant to confront things head-on.
Tian Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief and went with Tan Yunrou to the University of Science and Technology to find their classroom directly.
"Class hasn’t ended yet."
It was really cold outside, and even without snow or wind, staying out for too long would still leave one shivering relentlessly.
Waiting and waiting, looking and looking, they finally saw the class disperse.
They noticed a professor with a book in hand walking out.
This was followed by a trickle of students exiting the classroom.
Tan Yunrou didn’t approach immediately; instead, she watched as Zhao Tianlei came out and separated from the other students before she stepped forward.
"Brother Zhao..."
Upon hearing this address, Zhao Tianlei’s eyebrows involuntarily furrowed in confusion.
"Brother Zhao, I’m Tan Yunrou."
Tan Yunrou, afraid that Zhao Tianlei had forgotten her, introduced herself again now that they had met.
Her heart felt even more uneasy.
The name sounded somewhat familiar to him.
"Student, is there something you need?"
Zhao Tianlei wanted to review for the uping final exams, to avoid doing poorly in them.
"Can we talk over there?"
Tan Yunrou didn’t want to have this conversation near their classroom, as too many people were looking their way.
"Can’t we talk here?"
Zhang Jiandong was the last to leave the classroom and saw a female student stopping Zhao Tianlei, tried to join in, but eventually decided against it.
This female student was certainly not as good-looking as Zhao Tianlei’s partner.
And that person wasn’t worried at all that Zhao Tianlei might find another woman outside; if she came to know, she would simply replace him.
It was very straightforward.
After all, anyone who wasn’t foolish knew what choice to make.
Should he go over and take a look, or not?
On the other hand, Tan Yunrou hesitated for a long time before she finally asked.
"Brother Zhao, do you have a partner?"
Zhao Tianlei took a while to snap back to reality.
He had a wife.
"Yes."
Tan Yunrou saw the firmness in him as he uttered that one word, which gave her an answer.
But it almost made her tears e streaming out.
"Xiao Rou."
Tian Xiaoli immediately came over, "Let’s go!"
Tan Yunrou, supported by her, didn’t speak and tried hard to hold back, not wanting to cry in front of Zhao Tianlei.
As he watched them leave, Zhao Tianlei was still somewhat puzzled.
Why did she suddenly e to ask him if he had a partner?
And after knowing he had one, she just left?
Suddenly, he realized something, his eyes widened for a moment – no way, she liked him?
Zhao Tianlei soon put the incident out of his mind.
He was very busy, truly busy.
Planning to make a big effort next year, and his studies were getting heavier and heavier.
Tian Xiaoli, who was helping Tan Yunrou walk away, looked at her anxiously, fearing she would burst into tears.
Asking him today was equivalent to finally letting go of any hope.
Student Zhao wasn’t bad, but he already had a partner.
This left Tian Xiaoli not knowing what to say to fort her.
She had witnessed Xiao Rou’s heart falling for Student Zhao, how her face would light up with a smile whenever she mentioned him.
Now, this was a huge blow to her.
"Xiao Rou, we need to look ahead."
Tan Yunrou didn’t say anything.
She just felt heartache.
After all this time, she still hadn’t let go.
And now, what good was this reluctance?
"Xiao Li, thank you." After causing such a scene today, Xiao Li had been by her side the whole time.
