As the night deepens at the Academy of Esoterics, the lights inside the academy shine like a galaxy, illuminating every corner of the institution. The eve of the Esoteric exhibition is filled with anticipation and a tense atmosphere. Lin Mengmeng and Jiang Hanting, as core members of the Academy of Esoterics' security team, bear the heavy responsibility of ensuring the smooth progress of the exhibition.
The night breeze carries a hint of early summer as they walk along the paths of the academy, creating an indescribable sense of tranquility and peace. Lin Mengmeng wears her academy uniform, a white shirt paired with a deep blue skirt, simple yet elegant. Her long hair is gently tousled by the night breeze, adding a touch of liveliness to the quiet surroundings.
Jiang Hanting stood by her side, as always wearing his impeccably neat black coat, giving off a distant and stern feeling. However, when he turned to look at Lin Mengmeng, a soft light seemed to faintly appear in his eyes.
"Tomorrow is the big day, are you ready?" Jiang Hanting spoke, his voice carrying a subtle concern.
Lin Mengmeng Nodded gently, with a determined look: "I'm ready. Although I'm a little nervous, I believe we can successfully complete the mission."
Jiang Hanting Chuckled: "Nervous? With your abilities, handling this level of mission should be a piece of cake."
Lin Mengmeng smiled slightly, but unconsciously tugged at her skirt, revealing a nervous expression. Jiang Hanting noticed her unease, and with a seemingly indifferent but caring tone, he said, "Don't worry, I'm here."
The two continued along the path of the campus, surrounded by tranquility, with only the sound of their footsteps and occasional night bird calls. Lin Mengmeng looked at the flower bed by the road, the blooming flowers appearing especially beautiful in the night. She couldn't help but stop and squat down to admire them.
Jiang Hanting Stop and look at her delicate attention to the flowers, couldn't help but say, "You always get easily attracted by the little things."
Lin Mengmeng Turned around, showing a somewhat shy smile, "I really think these flowers are beautiful."
Jiang Hanting raised his eyebrows slightly, then suddenly reached out and plucked a flower, carefully placing it behind Lin Mengmeng's ear. His movements carried a hint of tenderness as he said, "Indeed, very beautiful."
Lin Mengmeng was momentarily stunned, then a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. She felt a bit embarrassed and lowered her head, her voice as soft as a mosquito's whisper, "Thank you, Senior Jiang."
Two people slowly walked along the shaded path of the academy, and the surrounding night rendered everything into a quiet and beautiful scene. Jiang Hanting's mood also appeared particularly gentle in this tranquil night. He turned to look at Lin Mengmeng beside him, beginning to share his thoughts and preparations for tomorrow's Esoteric exhibition.
"For tomorrow's exhibition, we plan to showcase a new technology for neutralizing Esoteric, which will greatly enhance our defense strategy." Jiang Hanting spoke with a hint of confidence in his tone, but his manner of speaking still maintained his usual calmness.
Lin Mengmeng listened very attentively, her eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge and admiration for Jiang Hanting. "That sounds very useful, Senior Jiang. You must have spent a lot of time on it, right?"
"Indeed, it requires a lot of experimentation and adjustment, but it's worth it," Jiang Hanting said, unconsciously smiling as he spoke, an expression that Lin Mengmeng rarely saw on his face.
Then, Jiang Hanting suddenly changed the topic, his voice carrying a hint of playfulness: "Speaking of tomorrow, do you have any special performance prepared? It won't just be standing on stage, using your healing ability to revive a withered flower, right?"
Lin Mengmeng was taken aback by this sudden question, then realized that Jiang Hanting was joking. She gently bit her lip, and awkwardly smiled, "Um, I haven't thought about what to do yet. But I hope to do something meaningful, not just a display."
Jiang Hanting looked at her, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes: "Doing meaningful things, that's good. After all, Esoteric is not just for display, but more importantly, it should be able to help others."
Lin Mengmeng was deeply moved by Jiang Hanting's words, and a sincere smile appeared on her face. Her admiration for him grew even stronger. "Yes, I think so too. Thank you, Senior Jiang."
In this relaxed conversation, Lin Mengmeng felt an unprecedented sense of ease. Although Jiang Hanting usually gives the impression of being calm and serious, in this moment, she could feel his warmth and humor, which deepened her understanding of him.
As the night grew darker, the two of them walked with unusually light steps. This brief conversation not only increased Lin Mengmeng's anticipation for tomorrow's Esoteric exhibition, but also gave her a new understanding of Jiang Hanting. On such a night, the distance between them seemed to have closed significantly.
When they walked across a small bridge on the campus, Jiang Hanting suddenly stopped and looked at the night sky in the distance. "Mengmeng, no matter what happens tomorrow, we must persevere, protect this campus, and protect every student."
Lin Mengmeng looked up at Jiang Hanting and saw an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes. She replied softly, "Yes, Senior Jiang. We will do it."
As soon as her words fell, a gentle night breeze blew, causing Lin Mengmeng's long hair to sway gently. She lifted her head slightly, her gaze piercing through the dense treetops, looking into the deep night sky. Amidst the twinkling stars, she seemed to be searching for answers, as well as seeking solace for her soul.
Jiang Hanting noticed her movement, and a smile unconsciously tugged at the corner of his mouth. He understood Lin Mengmeng's personality, knowing the turmoil and unease in her heart, and more importantly, he understood that she needed not only comforting words but also silent support.
"In fact, I'm a little nervous too," Jiang Hanting suddenly spoke, his voice carrying a hint of mystery, as if sharing a little secret with Lin Mengmeng.
Lin Mengmeng turned to him with some surprise, looking puzzled. "Really? Why do I feel like you've always been calm, senior?"
"The calm appearance does not represent inner peace." Jiang Hanting said with a pretentious tone, then a hint of playfulness appeared in his eyes, "I'm just better at disguising it."
Lin Mengmeng was amused by his sudden humor, and her lips couldn't help but curl up, "So Senior Jiang gets nervous too."
"Of course, I am also human," Jiang Hanting paused, suddenly leaned in closer, lowered his voice, as if to say something extremely confidential, "You know? Sometimes, when facing you, I also feel nervous."
These words made Lin Mengmeng's heart beat faster, she lowered her head, and the blush on her face became even more apparent than before. Jiang Hanting's sudden change made her feel both surprised and somewhat joyful.
"Okay, just kidding." Jiang Hanting couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, then reached out and gently patted Lin Mengmeng's shoulder. "No matter what, we have to do our best tomorrow. Are you ready? Do you have confidence?"
Lin Mengmeng looked up, and a spark reignited in her eyes. "With you here, I have confidence."
Jiang Hanting After listening, he was slightly stunned, then a look of relief appeared in his eyes. Lin Mengmeng is not someone who is good at expressing herself, but this simple sentence is enough to make him feel deep trust and reliance.
At that moment, his expression softened, and his eyes locked deeply onto Lin Mengmeng's, as if seeking some kind of confirmation. Lin Mengmeng felt complex emotions, both inexplicably excited and afraid that this sudden attention would bring unnecessary trouble.
Jiang Hanting's voice rang out again, this time with a subtle tenderness: " Mengmeng, the reason I'm nervous is because..." He paused, as if searching for the right words, "it's because I care about your feelings. I don't want to see you suffer from excessive pressure."
Lin Mengmeng looked up, her eyes shimmering with complex emotions. Jiang Hanting's words were like a warm light, illuminating the heart that had long been shrouded in self-doubt and unease. She wanted to say something, but found herself unable to express her feelings in words at this moment.
Jiang Hanting saw the situation and lowered his head, getting closer. His eyes were serious and deep, as if he wanted to imprint every detail of Lin Mengmeng in his mind. At this moment, the distance between the two was unusually close, and they could clearly feel each other's breath.
The air seemed to have solidified, and the heartbeats of the two were unusually loud in this quiet night. The blush on Lin Mengmeng's face became more apparent, her heartbeat accelerated to the extreme, yet she strangely felt an unprecedented sense of peace and reassurance.
At that moment, Jiang Hanting suddenly realized that his behavior seemed too proactive. He took a step back with a hint of embarrassment, cleared his throat, and tried to return the atmosphere to normal: "Um, sorry, I might have been too..."
Lin Mengmeng quickly shook her head and said softly, "No, it's okay... I'm... I'm glad that senior can say that." Her voice was quiet but full of sincerity.
Jiang Hanting looked at her, and the embarrassment in his heart gradually subsided, replaced by an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. He smiled slightly, trying to break the brief awkwardness with an encouraging tone: "Well, in that case, let's work together and prepare for tomorrow's presentation."
Lin Mengmeng nodded, and a smile appeared on her face. Although she still felt anxious inside, Jiang Hanting's support gave her great strength. In this moment of communication, she deeply felt the subtle and sincere emotions between the two.
The gentle night breeze brushed past as the two stood side by side, gazing at the distant starry sky. This night would be an unforgettable memory for Lin Mengmeng, and perhaps a new beginning for Jiang Hanting.
