Lin Xi was sitting in the broadcast room waiting for Chen Yang to deliver the script for tomorrow's morning broadcast.
After a while, Lin Xi glanced at her watch; it was already six forty.
Lin Xi anxiously looked out the window, which faced a small path leading from the school dormitories to the cafeteria.
Outside the window, there was a cacophony of voices as it was the time when boarding students headed to the cafeteria for dinner or to fetch water. Almost all the students were carrying trays and water bottles as they walked towards the cafeteria.
Of course, for the senior students, they still had their backpacks on or were clutching a few books under their arms. After dinner, senior students typically took their trays directly to the classroom for self-study instead of returning to their dorms. Therefore, it was easy to identify senior students; if they were carrying a water bottle, they were generally not seniors. Those with serious expressions, who did not engage in conversation or laughter, were mostly seniors.
Lin Xi craned her neck to watch the students coming and going outside, resembling someone described in poetry standing on a bridge admiring the scenery.
She was so focused on watching outside that she did not notice when someone gently pushed open the door of the broadcast room. A tall boy entered quietly.
Since he was wearing white sneakers, he made no sound as he stepped onto the floor. Perhaps it was because Lin Xi was too engrossed in observing the people outside that she failed to notice him. While she was studying the various passersby outside, a tall and handsome boy behind her was gazing at her back, studying her.
Lin Xi had one knee resting on the chair in front of the broadcast desk, one hand supporting herself on the table, her body leaning slightly forward. Her petite yet curvy waist formed an elegant arc. Her thick black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall. She wore a sleeveless dress, white stockings, and shiny black flat shoes.
Just by staring at her back, one could sense that this girl exuded a quiet elegance, with a pure aura that concealed maturity and grace—a blend of youthful vitality and sensuality.
The boy stared at Lin Xi's back in a daze, forgetting his purpose and mission for being there, forgetting to move his feet.
“Ahem.”
After standing there for so long without being noticed by the girl who was admiring the view outside, he couldn't help but clear his throat softly.
Hearing the cough, Lin Xi was almost startled and jumped down from her chair.
"Chen Yang, why are you only coming now? I've been waiting for you for so long. I punish you to buy me something to eat on the way home today."
Before turning around, Lin Xi started shouting.
"Cough cough." The person held a fist to their mouth and lightly coughed twice, then lowered their head and secretly laughed.
"You, who are you?" When Lin Xi turned around and realized the person entering was not Chen Yang, she was taken aback and questioned loudly.
In front of her stood a girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes, her skin as fair as milk, seemingly radiating a rich milky fragrance. Her bangs brushed her eyebrows, partially concealing them. Even without smiling, the dimples at the corners of her mouth showed, making her look like she was smiling even when angry.
At that moment, she was indeed angry! Her thick brows were slightly furrowed, and her pink cheeks were slightly puffed out, appearing both sulky and charming.
"So Chen Yang is this close with such a beauty and often goes home together," he thought to himself in surprise. "I must give Chen Yang a good beating tomorrow."
He didn't feel that she was truly angry; instead, he thought her expression seemed to be teasing.
Thus, he wasn't intimidated by her angry demeanor. Instead of apologizing for being late, he grinned at her cheekily.
"What are you laughing at? Who are you? Why did you come in without knocking?" Seeing his somewhat cheeky smile made Lin Xi even angrier as she pressed him with three questions in a row.
Lin Xi was a girl from a traditional family, embodying traditional virtues and disliking boys with a cheeky attitude.
Especially that Chen Yang, who still hasn’t submitted the manuscript, making her wait so long. Now, here comes this “bad student” who doesn’t even know what trouble he’s getting into. Isn’t it all Chen Yang’s fault?
Lin Xi has always had some opinions about the mischievous Chen Yang, who often wears a sly smile. But the person in front of her now has a smirk that is far worse than Chen Yang's.
“Hey! Hey! Hey!” He blocked Lin Xi's advancing body with his hand, “Don’t get carried away.”
“What?” Lin Xi was stunned, pointing at her own nose with her index finger as she retorted, “Me? You’re telling me not to get carried away? How am I getting carried away?”
Fuming, Lin Xi sat down heavily in a chair. She had never encountered such an unreasonable person before—someone who barged into another's workspace without a word and then told the owner not to get carried away. It was simply outrageous.
Yes, this was a workspace, and at this moment, she was the one in charge here. Suddenly realizing this, she stood up from her chair and walked to the door of the broadcasting room, gesturing politely, “This is the school’s broadcasting room. If you don’t have any business here, please leave as quickly as possible.”
The boy shrugged his shoulders in a helpless manner and said, “Now let me answer the three questions you just asked. First, what I laugh at is my freedom; you have no right to interfere, and I also have the freedom not to answer you. Second, why didn’t I knock when I came in? Because your door was open; it’s like there’s no door at all, so I didn’t need to knock. As for the third question...”
He paused slightly, raising a stack of papers high in one hand. With an eyebrow raised, he spoke arrogantly like a victorious rooster after a battle, “For the third question, I definitely don’t need to answer you.”
“Oh, sorry about that. Here, this is something Chen Yang asked me to deliver.” He waved the manuscript in his hand, “So what I must say today is that this is the manuscript. I can refuse to answer any other questions you have. But I still patiently answered you to prove that I am a polite person.”
As he said this, he glanced sideways at Lin Xi and raised an eyebrow at her with a smug smile on his face as if to say, “You’re the impolite one here.”
Lin Xi was left speechless by his unreasonable arguments. Her expression was one of shock. Usually ranking first in Chinese class and having her essays read aloud by teachers as examples, she was articulate and insightful. Yet now she found herself unable to utter a single word in response. Who is this person? How dare he come here and talk back to me? Lin Xi was infuriated!
