Chapter 286 – 286: Lonely?
Kong Shuo felt a little embarrassed when he heard Xi Wan’s words. She was clearly just praising the school for organizing the birthday party. “I didn’t expect you to recognize me.”
Xi Wan smiled and replied, “You are very good and we have met many times, isn’t it?”
What was so bad about Kong Shuo? Compared to her, who was wearing big sunglasses, she was the hardest to recognize!
“My current attire is a little strange.” Kong Shuo unnaturally tugged at his bow tie slightly. It was obvious that he was not used to this kind of dressing.
Xi Wan blinked. “Why are you dressed like this?”
“I’m the emcee.” Kong Shuo said to her.
Xi Wan nodded. “Since you’re the emcee, it’s very reasonable for you to dress like this.”
Xi Wan had just finished speaking when she felt her cell phone vibrate. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Xi Ze, asking her to look for him in classroom 201.
Xi Wan had only been to the school’s auditorium before, so she didn’t know where classroom 201 was. She could only ask Kong Shuo for help. “How do I get to classroom 201?”
Kong Shuo was about to raise his hand to guide Xi Wan, but after some thought, he retracted his hand, “I happen to be free. I’ll take you there. You’re not familiar with the school’s terrain, so it might not be easy to find.”
Since Kong Shuo was so enthusiastic, Xi Wan did not reject his good intentions.
Along the way, many people greeted Kong Shuo, their tone very warm and friendly.
There were even people who would stuff candies and small gifts into his arms.
Everyone’s enthusiasm was clearly overwhelming for Kong Shuo. He looked at Xi Wan awkwardly and said to her, “Everyone isn’t usually like this. I didn’t expect it to be like this… Perhaps it is because today is a festive day.”
“It seems that you are quite popular.” Xi Wan teased him.
Xi Wan’s words successfully caused Kong Shuo to fall silent for a while. He said honestly, “I’m not afraid to laugh at you. Actually, I don’t know any of those students just now.”
“???” Xi Wan also fell silent.
Are they alright? They don’t know you, but they’re still so enthusiastic to give you gifts and candies?
Also, are you okay? You don’t know him, but you dare to accept the candies and gifts he handed over. Aren’t you afraid that these things are poisonous?
[I’m really speechless. Otherwise, why would everyone in society say that college students are the easiest to fool?] The system recalled a popular joke on the Internet that described college students. [As expected, there is a clear stupidity in his eyes. One can tell at a glance that he is a university student.]
Xi Wan could not help but nod her head, agreeing with the system’s words.
Looking at the grand occasion where Kong Shuo greeted everyone he saw, Xi Wan could not help but think of how Xi Ze had brought her around half the campus just now and only met a classmate who was urging him to get down to business.
“Xi Ze doesn’t usually participate in school activities?” Xi Wan asked Kong Shuo.
Kong Shuo seriously recalled Xi Ze’s usual activities, then nodded at Xi Wan, “It should be. I often participate in school activities. I don’t really see Xi Ze at all. This time, he agreed to participate in the stage play. A few seniors found it unbelievable.”
Kong Shuo participated in many activities in school. As long as it waved at Xi Wan. “Here!”
The person beside Xi Ze who was talking to him also turned around was related to scholarship, credits, or some other opportunities, he would take the initiative to participate.
Since his purpose of participating in these activities was for the scholarship and not to make friends, he did not know many people and did not want to spend time to get to know them.
Before they reached the door of classroom 201, Xi Wan and Kong Shuo looked up and saw Xi Ze.
Xi Ze was standing in the corridor at the entrance of classroom 201, leaning against the window with one foot supporting his center of gravity. He looked exactly like a model posing for a photo.
He didn’t know what the person beside him was saying to him, but at this moment, his expression wasn’t too good.
Xi Wan walked to the teaching building and Xi Ze saw her in the crowd. His expression immediately turned from dark to bright as he waved at Xi Wan. “Here!”
The person beside Xi Ze who was talking to him also turned around and was stunned when he saw Xi Wan.
Oh my god, what did he see? Xi Wan, that’s Xi Wan! Alive!
