Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 127 - 126: My Little Cookies Are So Delicious

"Sigh, I actually wanted so cookies too. What a sha. They’re full of dietary fiber, after all... Too bad I’m full and can’t eat another bite."

Ye Ling shook his head from the side, speaking with feigned regret.

"That’s right, that’s right! My little cookies are delicious, and I’m going to eat every last one!"

Hearing this, Luo Yue imdiately clutched the cookies and began nibbling on them rapidly, just like a little hamster.

As she nibbled, she was on the verge of tears. It was all so unfair~~

Life is hard; Yueyue sighs!

...

At noon, Ye Ling and Ning Ruoxi were having lunch in the cafeteria.

The quality of the food at the Modu University cafeteria had clearly improved a lot since the military training ended. It was no longer a set al for everyone; you had to order your own dishes now.

"Ruoruo, do you have class this afternoon?"

Ye Ling asked, looking at Ning Ruoxi.

"This afternoon? Nope, no classes."

Ning Ruoxi shook her head.

She was in the School of Arts, so she had fewer classes to begin with. Besides, most of them were self-study periods, the kind where it didn’t really matter if you attended or not.

"I don’t have class either. How about we..."

Ye Ling said, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

"Go to the library and study?"

Ning Ruoxi cut in.

"The library?"

Ye Ling gave her a strange look.

"Of course. We’ve only just started school, so we should be studying hard!" Ning Ruoxi said, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

"Alright then, I’ll go hole up in the library with you."

Ye Ling thought for a mont. ’It’s pretty normal for university students to spend all their ti in the library. And since I’d be going with Ning Ruoxi, that’s all the more reason to go!’

"Why the creepy smile?"

Ning Ruoxi noticed the sudden smile on Ye Ling’s face and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. "You big perv, don’t get any funny ideas, you hear? We’re really just going to the library to study!"

"Hey, is that really what you think of ? I wasn’t thinking about anything..."

Hearing this, Ye Ling couldn’t help but feel a little exasperated.

’How was my smile creepy? Plenty of girls have told I have a bright, sunny smile!’

"Hmph. You’re the king of pervs."

Ning Ruoxi playfully stuck out her tongue, but then a thought seed to strike her, and her pretty face flushed crimson.

’If he wasn’t the king of pervs, would he have made help him with... *that*?’

’He’s just the worst!’

After lunch, Ye Ling did indeed accompany Ning Ruoxi to the library to study. As for Luo Yue, that girl had no classes in the afternoon, so she naturally went straight ho.

After all... single people tend to be hobodies.

Inside the library.

Ning Ruoxi was focused on her book, while Ye Ling was focused on her, a faint smile on his lips.

Tsk!

’How co I never noticed how adorable my girl is when she’s reading?’

’That focused expression... it really makes my heart race!’

"What are you looking at..."

Seeming to sense his gaze, Ning Ruoxi looked up. When she saw Ye Ling watching her with a smile, she couldn’t help but ask.

"I’m looking at you."

Ye Ling replied instinctively.

"Hmph! And you still say you’re not the king of pervs."

Ning Ruoxi huffed. Then, as if rembering sothing, she quickly glanced around. Seeing that the few tables nearest to them were empty, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

’This is a library, after all. They had to be a bit more careful with their flirting; it wouldn’t be good to disturb others.’

"How does looking at my own girl make the king of pervs?"

Ye Ling raised an eyebrow and wrapped his arm directly around Ning Ruoxi’s waist, speaking with so annoyance.

’This silly girl, calling the king of pervs over and over again. I wonder where she picked that up. It’s too much!’

’Am I that kind of person?’

’I’m a perfect gentleman, okay!’

’How could she slander like this!’

"Don’t try anything! The library is a public place!"

Ning Ruoxi’s face instantly flushed crimson, and she hurriedly slapped his hand away.

"So does that an we *can* ss around at ho?"

In truth, Ye Ling was only teasing the girl and had no intention of actually doing anything. He asked with a wicked grin.

At that mont, Ning Ruoxi felt a wave of frustration. ’This jerk, he’d led her into another one of his traps!’

"Hmph! I’m not talking to you anymore~"

Ning Ruoxi pouted, then turned her head away and ignored him.

"Okay, okay, my bad."

Ye Ling imdiately blinked, putting on a pitiful expression.

’He’s playing cute again!’

At that mont, Ning Ruoxi felt a headache coming on.

’Dude, you’re supposed to be a big, tough guy. Why are you always playing cute with a little girl like ? What the hell is that about?’

’But, gotta admit... when Ye Ling acts like this, it’s actually kind of... heart-fluttering.’

Ning Ruoxi forgot all about being tricked by him earlier. Suddenly, she just wanted to give him a hug and pinch his cheeks.

"Alright... You’re forgiven."

Ning Ruoxi couldn’t help but sigh.

’Oh, well.’

’He’s the boyfriend I chose, after all. I guess I just have to put up with him~’

After that, Ye Ling didn’t tease the girl any further and picked up a book from the side.

However, the book he picked up wasn’t about computers, but rather one on finance.

With his God-tier Computer Skills, undergraduate-level computer science was just child’s play. To be honest, even more advanced material wouldn’t be much of a challenge for him.

After all, he was now on par with the world’s top hackers!

Ye Ling found himself engrossed in the finance book, reading with great interest.

Before he knew it, the sky had begun to darken.

Ye Ling closed his book and turned to look at Ning Ruoxi, an amused smile instantly appearing on his face.

She had actually fallen asleep with her head on the desk. A glistening trace of drool was at the corner of her mouth, and her lips smacked softly, as if she were dreaming of so delicious food.

"This girl... And she was just talking about studying hard..."

Ye Ling couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

Still, looking at his girl’s sleeping face, he found it inexplicably cute.

Especially the way her little mouth moved, like a tiny goldfish blowing bubbles.

"Ti to get up, my little piggy."

Ye Ling reached out, gently pinched Ning Ruoxi’s cheek, and called out to her.

By now, most of the people in the library had left; only the two of them remained at their table.

"Mmm..."

Ning Ruoxi woke from her dream, her eyes still hazy with the confusion of just waking up.

"What ti is it~"

At the mont, Ning Ruoxi’s voice was a little raspy. It sounded as sweet and refreshing as a perfectly ripe sumr waterlon, a sweetness that went straight to the heart.

"Five o’clock. You really are a little piggy, falling asleep while reading a book."

Ye Ling couldn’t resist reaching out to tap her on the forehead, and he chuckled.

"Hmph! You big anie~"

Ning Ruoxi shot Ye Ling a glare, though she felt a little embarrassed on the inside.

’After all, she was the one who had dragged Ye Ling to the library to study. She was the one who had insisted they had to be serious about it... And in the end, she was also the one who fell asleep while reading?’
