Xihua University

  When it comes to Xu Xue and Du Kuiwei's history, Bai Qing usually only has one word: Vulgar!

  Dog's blood.

  This feeling actually started from online dating, then met in person and died. The time spent interacting with real people in between was only about a month.

  That month, Du Kuiwei transformed into a virtuous and gentle little woman in the rented one-bedroom apartment, washing clothes, cooking, tidying up the house, and playing the role of family nanny with great fanfare. She only knew a few key words about Xu Hao: university teacher, handsome appearance, humorous personality. She didn't even know if he had parents or siblings, let alone meeting his friends. After the breakup, Bai Qingzhen pointed out to her that this was a typical case of having one's feet in two boats, and Du Kuiwei was clearly the broken one.

  It had come to this point, she really didn't need to see Xu Xue again.

  But many things are not asked in person, and it's always like something is missing, making people uneasy. Moreover, this time Xu Xiang took the initiative to ask her out, she had even less resistance.

  As she walked out of the subway station at Xihua University, she suddenly remembered why her heart had skipped a beat when she saw the name of the station that day.

  To speak of it, she had only been here once, which was the first time she met Xu Xue. That day, Xu Xue stood under the willow tree at the school gate, wearing a white striped shirt and gray trousers, with an ambiguous smile on his angular face, shining into her heart like sunlight.

  Since she was a child, she has been dreaming of finding such a husband, who is knowledgeable, has connotation, and does not have to be too handsome, she will put her heart at ease.

  That's why I'm so stupidly trapped in this unclear and ambiguous emotion, unable to extricate myself.

  She stood at the school gate sending a message to Xu Xue, and it wasn't until after a while that she received a reply: I'm in Comprehensive Building 201.

  He didn't even want to come out and see her anymore.

  Du Kewe took a deep breath and decided not to think about these abstract issues. The last meeting, it's better not to make it too sad, just pretend he's busy, no big deal. She tidied up her clothes, followed the school map and signs to find the so-called comprehensive building, stood outside room 201 and sent a message to Xu Xuan: I'm here.

  There was no response, she knocked on the door, and a voice inside called out, "Come in."

  This was a room similar to a teacher's office, and when she walked in, some unfamiliar people looked up at her with curious expressions. Xu Xue sat by the window, holding his phone and talking to someone.

  She walked over and put the things she brought on the table. Xu Xiu looked up at her, nodded, and then turned his gaze back.

  Is it over?

  She stood there somewhat stiffly, unsure of what to do next.

  Xu Xu was still speaking in a low voice, the speed and tone just within her audible range. "Didn't you say it's not okay today? There's a meeting this afternoon... Alright alright, I'll accompany you next time, is that okay?"

  Du Kewe may be careless, but she's not stupid. Can't she hear the obvious tone? Hasn't she lived in vain for 23 years? Although she had imagined countless possibilities before coming, even with a hint of hope for a miracle, at this moment, standing in front of Xu Xiang, all her preparations turned into nothingness.

  "Xu Xu." She couldn't help but speak up, "Talk to me."

  Her voice wasn't loud, yet in the quiet office, it sounded exceptionally clear.

  Xu Xu turned his eyes to look at her, and his gaze flashed with helplessness and annoyance. "Wait a minute, there's a student looking for me." He said on the phone, then stood up and said to her, "Let's go out and talk."
