Chapter 962: Chapter 944: The Lonely and Stubborn Ye Xi (Part 3)
Ye Xi walked into the school, neither fast nor slow, on this quiet road where the night wind whistled...
The whole campus road was so quiet that there was hardly any noise, except for the sound of his luggage wheels rolling on the ground.
Originally, Ye Xi could have asked the taxi driver to drop him off right at the dormitory entrance because taxis were allowed inside the campus.
However, he insisted on walking this path himself, wanting to walk in slowly alone, to stay outside in the freezing cold a little longer, to feel the wind, to experience the cold...
He wanted some extreme stimulation to occupy his mind so that he could only feel the "cold" and wouldn’t have thoughts about anything else...
On this New Year’s Eve, the outdoor air in the north was indeed very cold.
Ye Xi didn’t even know what the temperature was today; all he knew was that, walking along this road, even with his hat, mask, gloves, and scarf neatly worn, he was still cold to the bone, every inch of his skin felt chilly...
He could even feel his toes had long been frozen stiff. His fingers dragging the suitcase were numb and without sensation...
As Ye Xi walked along the way, his body trembled slightly; indeed, the cold had taken over his mind, and at this moment, his head was filled only with coldness, nothing else.
Ye Xi seemed a bit addicted to this feeling of extreme stimulation.
Step by step into the cold wind, gradually, he finished this long road and arrived at the entrance of his dormitory building...
Ye Xi, head down and numbed, walked into the dormitory building, stepping up several steps at a time, just as he was about to enter...
Suddenly, a petite figure leaped in front of him, accompanied by a chirpy voice: "Hey! Good evening!"
Ye Xi’s dim eyes suddenly widened in surprise, and the out-of-focus image gradually cleared up, allowing him to see the smiling girl standing before him...
"You?"
Ye Xi’s frostbitten, cracked lips moved slightly, uttering a question.
He initially wanted to say: Why are you here?
But after saying one word, a face he desperately wanted to forget flashed through his mind these days...
It must be her.
Ye Xi secretly thought, it must be her who sent her roommate to find him.
She rejected him cleanly and directly but told her roommate the news and sent her to find him.
Her intention was probably for him to accept her roommate, right?
Thinking of this, Ye Xi’s chapped lips tugged slightly, forming a disdainful smile, or perhaps it was a mocking smile.
He just didn’t know if he was mocking her or himself?
Was he now so pitiable that even the girl he once rejected had to come to warm him up?
Not really...
He wasn’t alone after all; he had a cat.
"I heard you’ve been wandering around these days, so I just wanted to try my luck!"
Minal looked up, her big dark eyes stared at him with an incredibly bright smile, and she added, "Don’t worry, I’m not here to pursue you! I just genuinely wanted to see you, see if you’re in a good mood~ need some company?"
Ye Xi took a deep breath of the cool air, his tone indifferent, "No need for company, thank you."
With that, he dragged his luggage past Minal, heading straight for the dormitory building...
Minal quickly made a detour, running around to block him again, thick-skinned, she continued, "Hey, it’s almost midnight! Why don’t we welcome the New Year together? I’m alone too!"
Minal obviously had left Mu Mu in the dormitory behind...
There was nothing to be done.
She was just that kind of person, prioritizing romance over friendship.
Faced with boyish charms, let her friend wait for now!
"No."
Ye Xi still rejected her, even at his loneliest, he didn’t want irrelevant people around him.
He was actually accustomed to loneliness and had the company of his cat when alone.
He would rather hug his little cat in the dorm for New Year’s than spend it with someone he barely knew.
So, he would continue to refuse Minal.
Even though he’s amidst loneliness...
"Hey, I specifically rode from our dorm to find you, and you just went in like that?" Minal widened her eyes, somewhat displeased, and asked him.
"It was a hard trip for you, but there’s no need for that."
Ye Xi replied coldly, carrying his luggage, and once again walked past her, straight into the dormitory building.
Minal was left standing alone on the spot.
She widened her eyes, turned around, and stared dumbfoundedly as Ye Xi walked into the dormitory, climbed the stairs, and gradually disappeared from her sight...
"Oh!"
Minal stomped her foot in anger, her mouth pouting high, clearly unhappy!
"How unromantic!"
Minal puffed her cheeks, shook her scarf a few times, clearly very upset.
Despite her disappointment and unhappiness, she couldn’t throw a tantrum.
What could she do...
After all, she was the one taking the initiative.
In the world of feelings, whoever is proactive is at a disadvantage!
"Ah, forget it, forget it, I’ll go back to the dorm for some heat!"
Minal waved her hand, turned around and left decisively.
Her actions were straightforward, and her decision to give up was crisp...
She hadn’t really hoped much, so she wasn’t actually hurt...
