Chapter 552, Chapter 545: Going Out to Study
As she thought about it, Xiaomuqing found the matter increasingly strange, regarding the fact that Ye Ziming wasn’t lusting after her body these days.
Although he still did things from time to time, it was a world of difference compared to before the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays ended. She even wondered if Ye Ziming was abstaining from sex and planning to become a monk.
She was very curious and really wanted to know why.
Could this be the legendary “play it cool”? But it didn’t seem like it. Their relationship was still good; they even kissed when strolling around campus today.
Hmm, thinking about how he kissed her in a corner of the sports field made her feel a bit awkward. It was embarrassing to be watched by so many people.
However, she didn’t push him away in the end.
One evening passed, and by the next day, Xiaomuqing was still thinking about it, feeling restless and wanting to know the reason but lacking the courage to ask.
“So early, where are you going?”
Early in the morning, Hu Xixi, still lying in bed, heard a noise, opened her eyes, and saw Xiaomuqing had changed her clothes and was about to go out.
She was a bit surprised and asked, then took out her phone to check the time, confirming it was indeed the weekend.
Then the problem arose: not sleeping in on a beautiful weekend but getting up early, dressing up, and preparing to go out. If you said there was nothing going on, even a ghost wouldn’t believe it!
“Going to study.”
Seeing that Hu Xixi was awake, Xiaomuqing shook the CET-4 English practice questions in her hand and replied softly.
“The library?”
“Pretty much.”
“I don’t believe you!”
If it weren’t for the fact that it was only eight o’clock and Gu Yu and Xu Sijie seemed to still be asleep, Hu Xixi would have jumped up and called her a rotten loli!
Looking at the small dress paired with white silk stockings and the bun hairstyle that obviously took a lot of time, she had never seen anyone dress like that to go to the library.
So, she spoke with a look of disdain, completely disbelieving the rotten loli’s nonsense.
“Uh, I’m really going to review English…”
She was a bit embarrassed, and what Xiaomuqing said was indeed the truth. It was just that while reviewing, she wanted to go shopping with Ye Ziming.
They hadn’t gone out on a date for a while, or rather, hadn’t gone out together. It was nothing wrong to dress up a little, Xiaomuqing thought.
╰(￣▽￣)╭
“Shameless! Wearing silk stockings to study, who are you fooling?”
“Uh.”
Not knowing how to explain, Xiaomuqing glanced at the time and quickly tidied up her things, preparing to leave.
But as if by bad luck, just as she slung her bag over her shoulder and was about to leave, everyone in the dormitory sat up in bed.
“Huh? Xiaomuqing is going out?”
Gu Yu was the first to react and asked curiously.
“Yeah, I…”
Nodding, just as Xiaomuqing was about to say she was going to study, Gu Yu interrupted her, squinted, and smiled, saying:
“Remember to take safety measures.”
“Ah, this…”
The roommates were all like mothers. Seeing Xiaomuqing dressed up beautifully and about to go out, they all expressed their concern and gave a reminder lest two people go out and three return.
After a while, as Xiaomuqing walked out of the dormitory with her bag, her face showed the word “difficult.”
Sometimes, she felt that being too familiar with roommates wasn’t necessarily a good thing. Like now, they didn’t even ask her when she would return tonight, if she needed the door left open, or if she wanted to bring back supper.
They had already assumed she wouldn’t return tonight, and no explanation would work…
…
A moment later, Xiaomuqing arrived downstairs and found Ye Ziming already waiting for her under a tree outside, holding a freshly bought and still warm breakfast.
Without saying much, she greeted him and took the breakfast, knowing it was bought for her.
“Are we going to the library?”
“Do you want to go to the library?”
“Aren’t we going to study?”
Walking on the road, Xiaomuqing asked in confusion.
Except for the library’s study room, she couldn’t think of any other place suitable for studying. The dormitory was out; it was the place with the lowest learning efficiency.
“Do you look like someone who’s going to study?”
Turning his head and glancing at Xiaomuqing, Ye Ziming smiled meaningfully.
“Uh…”
Second embarrassment. Why did he say that too? She just dressed up a little and put on a pair of thin white silk stockings, did she look that strange?
As they walked, Ye Ziming led Xiaomuqing to the school parking lot and directly had her get into the car to go out, heading to a residential complex near the school.
There was an apartment there, which was quiet and suitable for studying. He had recently asked someone to clean it, and it was just the right time to go.
Before long, the two drove into the underground garage of the complex. As they were about to go upstairs, Ye Ziming casually asked if she was dressed so beautifully because she was going on a date.
Hearing this, Xiaomuqing couldn’t help but blush.
That was exactly what she was thinking.
In the morning, Ye Ziming made a simple plan for Xiaomuqing regarding the study schedule for the next few days.
In the afternoon, Xiaomuqing started doing practice questions and memorizing vocabulary. During this time, Ye Ziming stayed by her side, also memorizing vocabulary and doing practice questions.
In the evening…
“Waaah! I’m not writing anymore, my brain is going to break!”
At Ye Ziming’s sudden request, after finishing the last question, Xiaomuqing flopped onto the bed and rolled around, complaining that she didn’t want to touch anything related to English anymore.
She hadn’t touched this stuff in a long time, and doing so much at once had filled her up to the point of nausea.
Seeing her in this state, Ye Ziming raised an eyebrow and smiled helplessly. He didn’t assign her any more tasks but told her to take a bath and rest before continuing tomorrow.
“Ah? Still coming tomorrow!?”
Hearing Ye Ziming’s words, Xiaomuqing looked up at the sky in despair. What could she do if those knowledge points just wouldn’t enter her brain?
“Yes, next month is coming up quickly. Keep it up.”
He patted Xiaomuqing’s head, and Ye Ziming encouraged her with a smile.
“Whimper.”
Xiaomuqing couldn’t muster any enthusiasm for Ye Ziming’s encouragement. She even thought about just giving up. This stuff was truly difficult.
Sigh, complaints aside, Xiaomuqing still washed up obediently after a while, changed into the nightgown Ye Ziming had prepared for her, and lay on the bed to rest and play on her phone.
Because she had studied all day, Ye Ziming had prepared a reward for her: a large box of crawfish for the little glutton, along with a few bottles of cola.
“To give you some motivation to study, from now on, as long as you complete the day’s study goal, I will give you a reward.”
“Really?”
Wearing gloves and peeling crawfish, Xiaomuqing asked in surprise.
“Mm.”
Ye Ziming smiled and nodded. Since there were rewards, there would naturally be punishments. If she didn’t complete the day’s task, he would prepare some form of punishment.
He hadn’t decided on the specific punishment yet, so he didn’t mention it now.
When it was late at night, and they were getting into bed together to sleep, Ye Ziming remembered a joke he saw online and whispered suggestively in her ear:
“If you don’t finish the required number of practice tests for the day, and you’re short one, I’ll penetrate you once. What do you think?”
