Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 61: Love, My Foot!

On a sweltering summer night, an old fan whirred tirelessly above the door frame, buzzing rhythmically.

This buzzing subtly masked the presence of mosquitoes, biting unsuspectedly, much to the irritation of Cao Guangyu, who cursed loudly in frustration.

Jiang Qin also suffered a few bites but had no time for cursing. He quickly scratched a cross on each welt with his fingernail, then resumed his focus on the data bars in the administrators backend on his computer screen. Barely a moment had passed when the computers side speaker emitted a series of beeps, and Feng Nanshus QQ avatar, a silly-looking tabby cat, popped up in the bottom right corner of the screen.

Good night.

?

Jiang Qin glanced at the time and saw it was only eight oclock in the evening. Looking outside, the sky was just dimly dark, and the outlines of poplar trees were still visible. How could someone of Feng Nanshus young age fall asleep so early?

And more so, why send a random good night without any prior conversation? Nevertheless, he didnt dwell on it, replying with a good night and a waving hand emoji.

Are you going to bed so early? came Feng Nanshus reply.

Jiang Qin was momentarily startled, his fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard, Werent you the one who said good night?

Oh.

Get some sleep if youre tired. We have military training tomorrow. Dont stay up late.

Feng Nanshu was silent for a minute before sending another message: Jiang Qin, there are people singing under our dormitory building. The joyous sparrows are sleeping naked on the telephone poles.

Jiang Qin replied, It must be noisy, right? College students hormones go wild at night. Youll see it often in the future. Just close your door, and you probably wont hear them.

Oh.

Sleep well.

After a brief silence, Feng Nanshu responded, Wenhui said the carps in Moonwatch Lake have grown so big theyre almost mythical.

Jiang Qin replied, Impossible. Since the founding of the Peoples Republic of China, no mythical beings are allowed. Even the Inspiration King (fish monster from Journey to the West) would have to lay low in the lake.

Okay then.

Good night. Apply some Six God (mosquito repellent) before sleeping, the mosquitoes seem especially fierce tonight.

Meanwhile, in room 503 of the girls dormitory building 7, Gao Wenhui sat beside Feng Nanshu, scratching her head in agitation and clicking her tongue in disbelief.

What centurys pure love drama was this? You miss him but dont dare to say it directly, resorting to various tests?

Too sci-fi!

Feng Nanshu, oh Feng Nanshu, you look like a fairy, beautiful enough to cause calamity. Cant you be a bit bolder? Like Daji or Baosi, werent they all brave? (famous Chinese consorts)

If I had your looks, Id find a hundred men, gather them in a group, and play the love game.

Nanshu, give me your phone. Ill help you.

?

Feng Nanshu lifted her clear eyes in confusion, looking at Gao Wenhui, but still obediently handed over her phone.

Gao Wenhui had never been in a relationship either, but that didnt stop her from indulging in romance novels, especially the recent You Are the Colors of the Human World, from which she gleaned plenty of tactics, knowing full well the adage that coquettish women lead the best lives.

Imissyou

Before Gao Wenhui could finish typing, Feng Nanshu swiftly snatched the phone back and held it protectively, eyeing her with a wary gaze.

Whats wrong?

I dont miss him.

You do.

No, I havent.

Trust me, you definitely miss him.

Feng Nanshu clutched her phone, a slight frown creasing her beautiful brows, I just want Jiang Qin to take me out for a walk.

Gao Wenhui wore a mischievous grin, That feeling is missing someone. Why else wouldnt you want other guys to take you out? Isnt it because hes your only boyfriend? Feng Nanshu puffed her chest out with pride, her stance firm and righteous.

Suddenly, Fan Shuling removed her book from in front of her face, Wenhui, stop leading her astray. Why pine over such a jerk? Shes just bored and wants to go out. Nanshu, where do you want to go? Ill accompany you after I finish this chapter.

Feng Nanshu patted her pillow, Im a bit sleepy, I think Ill go to bed.

Fan Shuling was baffled, ??????

Gao Wenhui couldnt help but laugh, thinking to herself that Nanshu should be under the car, not in it. She then turned to Feng Nanshu, Nanshu, men are often oblivious. If you dont spell things out for them, theyll never understand.

Just then, Feng Nanshus phone lit up, displaying a new message from Jiang Qin.

Come out, Im downstairs at your dorm. The supermarket across the street seems lively, lets go have a look.

Gao Wenhui glanced at the message and exclaimed in shock, He understood without you saying anything? Damn, isnt this too sweet?!

Im going to the supermarket now, Feng Nanshu stated coolly.

Wait for me, Im coming too. I broke my earphones last night, so I need to buy a high-fidelity pair at the supermarket.

Gao Wenhui kicked off her slippers, put on sneakers, and followed out, her voice echoing in the corridor, How could he possibly guess you wanted him to take you out? This is unscientific!

Meanwhile, Jiang Qin, dressed in a black t-shirt and shorts, stood under the girls dormitory building, swatting mosquitoes and reviewing their chat history on his phone.

Jiang Qin, theres singing under my dormitory.

That must mean you want me to come down and listen to the music with you. A good opportunity to meet you.

Wenhui says the carps in Moonwatch Lake have grown big enough to become mythical.

That must mean you want me to take you to Moonwatch Lake, the same place we went last time, where you even touched my foot.

Sure, its not about dating, but whats wrong with hanging out with friends? Shes just a cute and pretty friend.

Why worry about friendship turning into something else? Nanshu is so naive and innocent, she doesnt even understand why men like to look at breasts, let alone know anything about love.

Jiang Qin!

Lost in thought, Jiang Qin was suddenly approached by a triumphant Gao Wenhui, I just taught Feng Nanshu some tips about dating. You should thank me later.

Jiang Qins face darkened, You and your misguided advice!

?????

At the same time, Feng Nanshu emerged from the dorm, dressed in a black lettered T-shirt and a grey and white checkered skirt. Under the warm light of the street lamp, her face looked radiant, her lips red, her teeth white, and her skin seemed almost dewy.

Gao Wenhui glanced at her, then at herself.

Pink loose pajama pants, okay, ugly enough, but the sleep shirt was dark green and didnt match the pants.

Her mind went blank, thinking, Feng Nanshu, are you playing me? No wonder you didnt change into pajamas after returning to the dorm. You were secretly waiting, ready to leave as soon as he arrived, werent you?
