Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Chu Yan pressed his finger lightly on the lock of the study room and the door opened automatically.

Ye Qingran walked into the study room and saw her book placed in a corner of the desk.

“I found it.” Ye Qingran held the book and faced Chu Yan, who was at the door.

“Come out then.”

Ye Qingran didn’t move and pointed at his bookshelf. “Can you lend me two books?”

Chu Yan hesitated for a moment and nodded. “Take them yourself.”

“Thank you.”

Ye Qingran walked to the first row of bookshelves and looked at the top row. She tiptoed and reached out to take the books.

However, the bookshelf was too high and she couldn’t reach it no matter how hard she tried.

Just as she was about to ask for Chu Yan’s help, a slender arm was raised behind her back. The joints of the arms were clear and the slender fingers had already hooked the book she wanted.

“Which other book do you want?”

“The third and fifth books on the right.”

Ye Qingran raised her head lightly and looked at Chu Yan’s handsome face.

She realized that Chu Yan was really tall. She had to stand on her tiptoes to reach his shoulders.

The current her had the status of a boy.

As a boy, her height really wasn’t enough. It was no wonder that Chu Yan thought that she was a child.

He took the book and handed it to Ye Qingran. Only then did Chu Yan realize that the two of them were very close.

The boy in front of him had a faint scent of mint lingering around him.

Why did he give off the feeling of a girl? Chu Yan froze for a moment before handing the book in his hand to Ye Qingran.

He looked at the few books that had been borrowed.

They were all physics books. The books weren’t about the microscopic and macroscopic world, but about gravity and inertia, relativity theory, the speed of light and space-time, the four-dimensional space-time wonders, the theory of everything and cosmology, and so on.

He asked, “Why are you borrowing these books?”

Ye Qingran replied casually, “I want to be a scientist in the future.”

Of course not.

She just wanted to study whether there was a scientific explanation for her transcending into a book while sleeping.

Chu Yan’s eyes flashed, but he didn’t say anything.

Ye Qingran held the book and waved at him. “Thank you.”

Chu Yan watched her back as she left. His gaze was as deep as the ocean, as if he could see through everything.

If he wasn’t Ye Qingran...

Then who was he?

Chu Yan recalled everything that had happened since they came into contact, as well as what he had said to Chu Ruoruo. He suddenly had a very strange feeling.

This body of his, could it be a “she”?

–

Ye Qingran put the book into the box. She picked up the phone at the side and saw the message that Ye Chenfeng had sent her.

[ NO. 3: Um... last time, I helped someone with a small favor. To thank me, she wants to treat me to a meal. Should I bring a gift over? If so, what gift should i bring? ]

Ye Qingran looked at the message and was slightly stunned.

Her?

Ye Qingran wanted to go on a date with a girl, but who was it?

Bai Beibei?

No, if it was Bai Beibei, based on the incident with Bai Shu that day, he would have told her the moment he saw Bai Beibei.

If it wasn’t Bai Beibei, then it had to be the female lead, Mu Qingxue.

In order to take revenge, Mu Qingxue deliberately approached Ye Chenfeng and tried to sow discord between the brothers. She made Ye Chenfeng fail to graduate. His legs were broken and he even severed his relationship with Ye Jun.

Could it be that Ye Chenfeng’s nightmare was about to begin?

Ye Qingran pondered for a long time before she replied with a message: [ You don’t have to bring anything. ]

Ye Chenfeng must have been staring at his phone the whole time. He replied almost instantly: [ Are you sure? ]

[ Ye Qingran: Of course I’m sure. Trust me, with your conditions, you just need to sit there coldly and cruelly, and the other party will fall head over heels in love with you. All women like cold and aloof handsome guys. If you talk too much nonsense and try to please her, she won’t care. What you can’t get is the best. This sentence was very suitable for both men and women. ]

[ NO. 3: ... ]

Although she replied with a string of ellipses, Ye Qingran didn’t continue asking. Ye Qingran thought that he probably believed her.

According to the progress of the plot, Mu Qingxue wouldn’t make a move on Ye Chenfeng so quickly.

Could it be because of her?

Mu Qingxue didn’t get the pleasure of revenge on her, so she decided to target Ye Chenfeng in advance?

That year.

She didn’t know whether Ye Jun was the one who was responsible for the matter between Ye Jun and Mu Qingxue’s father.

However, even if Ye Jun was the one who did it, was it really alright for Mu Qingxue to kill her entire family just because she suffered?

Although the original character was a playboy, she wasn’t evil.

Although she had three girlfriends and still wanted to pursue Mu Qingxue, she only said it out loud and had never hurt anyone.

However, because of Mu Qingxue’s revenge, she went to the extreme and made things irreversible.

Other than Ye Jun, no one in the Ye family had hurt her. However, Mu Qingxue wanted to send all of them to their doom.

Was this revenge?

Or was it to vent?

The next day.

After school, Ye Qingran didn’t go home with Chu Ruoruo.

Instead, she took a taxi to the university that Ye Chenfeng studied at.

Ye Chenfeng probably asked her about dating because Ye Qingran had a few girlfriends.

Under Ye Qingran’s probing, he accidentally told Ye Qingran the location of his date.

It was at a casual dining Western restaurant not far from the university.

Ye Qingran got off the car and saw Mu Qingxue waiting outside the restaurant.

She was wearing a light pink one-piece dress. Her long hair was casually draped over her shoulders. There was no makeup on her face, but she was as beautiful as a lotus flower out of water. Passersby couldn’t help but peek at her.

Not long after, Ye Chenfeng arrived.

It was obvious that he had dressed up on purpose. His white shirt and light blue jeans made him look even more radiant, fresh, and handsome.

Mu Qingxue waved at him. “Senior, you’re here.”

Ye Chenfeng didn’t expect that Mu Qingxue would arrive first and that she was even waiting for him. He immediately felt a little embarrassed. “Sorry to have kept you waiting.”

“No, I just arrived.”

Mu Qingxue pursed her lips shyly and smiled.

Ye Chenfeng froze and his heart was beating fast.

Ye Qingran leaned against the wall and looked at them coldly.

She was going to wait for the two of them to order before she went in.

She wanted to see how Mu Qingxue would flirt with Ye Chenfeng in front of her when she already had a boyfriend, Dongfang Yu, and had a romantically ambiguous relationship with Long Junyao.

The sound of something falling to the ground came from the side.

Ye Qingran looked towards the source of the sound and saw a girl staring at Ye Chenfeng and Mu Qingxue in shock.

The girl had two braids and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses that covered half of her face. She was holding a book in her hand and she had thick bangs.

Her appearance was average and ordinary.

When she saw Ye Chenfeng’s enamored expression while look towards Mu Qingxue, the girl seemed dazed and her eyes turned red instantly.

Ye Qingran asked curiously, “You... you know Ye Chenfeng?”

The girl didn’t respond and her gaze followed Ye Chenfeng.

When she saw Ye Chenfeng and Mu Qingxue enter the restaurant together, tears instantly rolled down her cheeks...
