Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Could She Wait for Him Any Longer?

In the afternoon, at the entrance of the playground, I bumped into Jiang Zhiyi, who immediately fixated on my hand with a serious expression, "What happened to your hand?"

"It’s nothing." Seeing everyone looking at us, Shen Weiyi shook her head, "Just took a little fall, it’s not serious. How about you?"

Jiang Zhiyi subconsciously pursed his lips, a complex look in his eyes as he responded, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself." He had taken in everything that girl had said before; after pondering over it last night, he admitted she was right. He had always been immature, but he would change.

Yet, could she wait for him?

He would become the person she hoped he would be.

Shen Weiyi nodded, "That’s good, I’m off to military training now."

Jiang Zhiyi opened his mouth, wanting to call out to her, but his throat tightened and not a single syllable could make it out.

Because he didn’t know what to say, if it wasn’t what the other person wanted to hear, it seemed like saying anything was meaningless.

In a blink, the weekend arrived.

At noon, Shen Weiyi saw a message from Shen Jingqi saying he was already at the school’s main gate.

As she and Qin Zhen approached, they saw that guy flirting with a passing younger lady.

Seeing them come over, he immediately waved.

"What were you up to just now?" Qin Zhen’s gaze followed the girl who had just left, not in military attire, presumably an upperclassman.

Hands in his pockets, Shen Jingqi raised his eyebrows, "I was just trying to find someone to ask where your training is. Z University is so big, I can’t just wander around aimlessly like a headless fly."

Qin Zhen looked at him skeptically, "Are you sure you’re not just making excuses to chat up that lady?"

"You’re wronging me here. With this face of mine, do I need to chat someone up?" It’s the other way around, isn’t it? People hit on him, okay?

His gaze then landed on Shen Weiyi’s hand, "All this training, and you got injured?" As he said this, he reached to fiddle with Shen Weiyi’s bandaged hand.

"Why can’t your hand stay put?" Before he could touch the bandage on Shen Weiyi’s hand, Qin Zhen slapped his hand away.

Shen Jingqi retracted his hand while protesting, "I just wanted to see how bad her injury was. Why are you so violent, woman?"

Qin Zhen glared at him, "You’re not a doctor, what could you tell?"

Well, that was also true.

Shen Jingqi sheepishly curbed his curiosity and looked around again, "Where’s my brother? Why isn’t he coming out to greet me?"

Qin Zhen: "Isn’t it enough with the two of us, pretty sisters, accompanying you?"

"It’s livelier with more people, no? Of course I want everyone together if I come visit." Just as he finished speaking, his eyes lit up, "Here he comes." He then frantically waved in a certain direction.

Sheng Ting approached with an unhurried pace, his gaze passing directly over Shen Jingqi to land on Shen Weiyi beside him, "How’s the hand?"

Shen Weiyi: "It’s much better now!"

Shen Jingqi, completely ignored on the side: ...

So there he was, a big man thoroughly unseen.

This must be what they call priorities, right?

Unwilling to be ignored, Shen Jingqi called out loudly, "Let’s go, let’s go, quickly take me to try the food at Z University’s cafeteria. I’ve heard the food there is incredibly good, with all kinds of delicacies."

"You came here specifically to mooch off our meals?" Qin Zhen looked at him disdainfully.

Shen Jingqi: "Of course not, I came specially to see you all. Mooching a meal is just incidental." How could he, a handsome young man, be reduced to sounding like a freeloader?
