If You Are a Dodder Flower Chapter 65 part2

However, Wei Qi’s gaze as he looked at her was too hot, like a fire burning in his eyes. Even Xia Rou, who had gone through a rebirth, was a little overwhelmed to the point that she couldn’t take it.

Her cheeks heated up and she lowered her head to avoid his gaze.

Wei Qi watched her cheeks flush pink and the way she shyly lowered her head.

The beauty that this young girl possessed was so glorious it was difficult to describe. For a young man so passionately in love, it made him feel his whole body was heating up, his heart racing in his chest, thumping like a drum.

Standing in front of the girl he liked, his usual adroitness seemed to have vanished into the distance. Xia Rou didn’t say anything, and he stood there dorkily, unable to voice a single word. He just looked at her and giggled.

The dorm auntie’s mouth twitched. It was obvious that the young man was in love, which was why he was acting so silly.

Wei Qi knew that if he continued to giggle he would truly look very silly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but before he could speak his stomach growled.

Xia Rou was surprised. “You haven’t eaten yet?”

Wei Qi blushed. “Mn, I forgot to eat.”

In reality, he hadn’t forgotten, but instead had foregone eating because he was rushing to see Xia Rou.

Xia Rou could guess this easily and chuckled.

Wei Qi’s face reddened further, and obtusely said, “I will go home and eat later.”

Xia Rou hadn’t expected that despite only being three or four years younger, Wei Qi was so green.

The Wei Qi that she knew had already been tempered by society into a mature and capable man.

But the Wei Qi now, who was so green yet sweet and enthusiastic gave her an entirely different experience. Speaking of her past life… she had never experienced such innocent, simple feelings. This was because she and Liang Ziheng had known from the beginning what they needed from one another.

She wanted to become Mrs. Liang, while he wanted the Cao Family backing him.

Thinking of this, Xia Rou felt a little sad inside.

She touched her jacket pocket and brought out her wallet. “Don’t wait until you get home. Let’s go to the cafeteria. I’ll treat you.”

The school cafeteria didn’t accept cash. They only took student cards.

Wei Qi obviously was not stupid enough to decline. On the contrary, his eyes shone even brighter as he agreed without hesitation.

Xia Rou left her stuff in the dorm management room first before leading Wei Qi to the cafeteria. They met Zou Yue on the way.

“Senior Wei?” Zou Yue was shocked.

“Zou Yue,” Wei Qi smiled. “On the way back to your dorm?”

Zou Yue looked at Xia Rou beside Wei Qi and immediately understood the situation. Her heart was cast into the shadows. “Mn.”

Wei Qi only had Xia Rou in his eyes. Even though he noticed Zou Yue’s change in emotions, he could only pretend not to notice. In fact, he was very worried that Xia Rou would misunderstand.

He glanced at her. It didn’t seem like Xia Rou minded, as she even greeted Zou Yue politely, “Senior.”

Zou Yue returned her greeting and asked, “Where are you going?”

Xia Rou responded, “Senior Wei hasn’t eaten yet. I’m bringing him to the cafeteria for some food.”

Zou Yue heard this with her heart full of bitterness. She forced a smile and said, “Alright. You should go now or there won’t be any food left.”

Xia Rou nodded and walked off with Wei Qi.

Once they had walked a decent distance, Wei Qi stepped in front of Xia Rou and said in a soft voice, “There’s nothing between us. She’s just my junior.”

He had hastily cleared up the relationship, afraid as he was that Xia Rou might misunderstand or get angry. But deep inside his heart, he had a faint hope that she would be a little jealous…

Xia Rou gave him a sidelong glance and smiled with her lips pressed together, quietly.

Wei Qi wasn’t able to grasp what Xia Rou was thinking. His heart was like a well in which seven buckets were drawn up and eight were dropped down. Translated by The Novelst

After Xia Rou ordered him some rice, he took his plate and followed Xia Rou in looking for a clear table before sitting down. He was unable to hold back and pledged to her again, “Really, there’s nothing between us. I just like to perform in dramas, which was why I always came here.”

This kind of youthful feeling and the nervousness he exuded made even Xia Rou who had lived until the age of twenty-five find it interesting. She looked at him, brimming with laughter, “I know.”

She knew the passion he had for drama. All the girls who had liked him in their company had also known of it.
