Chapter 1953: Three Years Later
Three years later.
Bo Cixue and Tang Wu came out of the library and walked toward the dormitory, chatting and laughing.
Tang Wu was Bo Cixue’s best friend at M University. The two of them had been staying in the same dormitory since they were young. Tang Wu was an international finance major while Bo Cixue was a computer science major.
The two of them were known as the prettiest girls in M University.
“Cixue, Mr Sikong is here again.”
Bo Cixue looked at the young man walking towards them. It was Sikong Ling, who was related to Tang Yu.
It had been two years since Sikong Ling started pursuing Bo Cixue.
Sikong Ling was a well-known figure in M City and was loved by countless girls, but in his cold eyes, there was only Bo Cixue.
Bo Cixue was the most unique girl that Sikong Ling had ever seen. Not only was she beautiful, but her aura was also unique. There was always a calm and elegant smile on her porcelain white face, and her doe eyes were clear and bright, as if they could see through anyone and anything in the world. But after interacting with her for a long time, he found that she had a carefree and careless air to her, as if nothing could enter her eyes.
Such a girl seemed easy to get along with, but it was not easy to win her heart.
“Cixue.” Sikong Ling went forward and stopped Bo Cixue with a cold voice.
Sikong Ling liked to wear white s.h.i.+rts, the b.u.t.tons of his s.h.i.+rts always b.u.t.toned neatly. He was young and handsome, but had an air of maturity and indifference that was different from those of his age.
He would only smile when he was with her.
Actually, he looked very good when he smiled. His teeth were white and neat, and his brown eyes were deep.
She blinked at Bo Cixue. “Then I won’t be a third wheel. I’ll leave first.”
Without waiting for Bo Cixue to say anything, Tang Wu left.
Bo Cixue smiled faintly. “She seems to have misunderstood something.” Then, he walked forward.
Sikong Ling caught up with Bo Cixue and walked to her side.
Bo Cixue was wearing a pair of denim shorts and a white t-s.h.i.+rt today. The t-s.h.i.+rt was tucked into the waist of her jeans, her waist slender while her legs were long. Her long hair was tied into a bun, looking fresh and energetic.
“Tang Wu did not misunderstand anything. Cixue, don’t you like photography? The scenery of my hometown is very good. I wonder if I have the honor to be your tour guide?”
Bo Cixue brushed away a strand of hair that fell by her ear. Her porcelain-like face was so pale under the setting sun that people could not look away. She smiled lazily. “I haven’t been home for a long time. I might have to go back during the summer break but I haven’t made up my mind. I’ll tell you the answer before the holidays!”
Hearing that she did not reject him outright, Sikong Ling’s deep brown eyes shone like stars. “Okay, I’ll wait for your news.”
Bo Cixue looked at Sikong Ling and the smile on her red lips deepened.
Sikong Ling sent Bo Cixue to the dormitory and they said goodbye. She was about to go in when suddenly a rough voice sounded. “Bo Cixue!”
Bo Cixue looked back.
Beside the flower bed not far away stood a black figure nearly 1.8 meters tall. That person was wearing a baseball cap, his hands in his pants pockets. Although she couldn’t see his face clearly, he looked cool and arrogant. Who else could it be but Bo Jingyu?
That brat had actually grown so tall and his voice was even breaking!
Sikong Ling naturally saw Bo Jingyu as well. He frowned slightly, clearly treating Bo Jingyu as one of his love rivals.
Bo Jingyu was obviously not a good or obedient boy, and Bo Cixue had never interacted much with such people.
Sikong Ling could feel that she admired people like him.
But now, he saw that the usual calm and careless smile on Bo Cixue’s face had turned into a bright smile. She was born with bright eyes, pearly white teeth, and when she smiled from the bottom of her heart, it was enough to enchant people.
Bo Cixue jogged to the boy. When she left, the brat was not even as tall as her, but now, he was taller than her.
She had to tiptoe if she wanted to pat his head.
Bo Cixue tiptoed and patted him.
“Why are you here?”
“F*ck, can you stop patting me on the head in the future? I’m a man now and only my woman can pat my head in the future.”
Bo Cixue wanted to kick the brat.
“Not only am I here, but Mom is here too. However, she’s at the school gate and is afraid that she won’t be able to hold back and will embarra.s.s you if she comes in and sees you.”
Hearing this, Bo Cixue felt a lump in her throat.
She grabbed Bo Jingyu’s hand. “Why are you still standing there? Let’s go.”
Bo Jingyu grabbed Bo Cixue. “Why are you still so thin? Your hands are so thin. I can break them with just one pinch.”
When Bo Jingyu and Bo Cixue pa.s.sed by Sikong Ling, the latter heard Bo Jingyu muttering those words.
Sikong Ling looked at the two holding hands as they ran forward. He felt as though he had been hit on the head.
Was that boy Bo Cixue’s boyfriend?
…
After running for a distance, Bo Jingyu stopped.
He let go of Bo Cixue and looked at her twice. “Sister, who’s that man who sent you back to the dormitory? You have a boyfriend here?”
Bo Jingyu knew that her sister didn’t lack suitors. Throngs of men would come running after her if she wanted.
But it was still difficult to find someone like the Crown Prince.
After all, people with that beautiful face did not have that kind of status and power.
People with status and power did not have that kind of exceptional beauty and n.o.ble temperament.
However, he saw that the man who sent her sister looked handsome and tall. His aura was cold and indifferent and he did not look like an ordinary person.
Bo Cixue’s slender and long fingers gently poked Bo Jingyu’s forehead. “What’s in your head all day long at such a young age?”
“You’ve liked Brother Xiaojie since you were young…” Bo Jingyu stopped himself before he could finish.
Although Bo Cixue did not go back for the past three years, she had never mentioned that person’s name when she wrote letters, called or video-called her family. Her family also never mentioned him in front of her.
It was as if that person did not exist.
His mother had also warned him not to mention the Crown Prince if he wanted his sister to get better.
Her warning entirely slipped his mind.
“Sister, Sorry, I…” Although Bo Jingyu was a well-known rich young man, he was also a true protective maniac.
If his sister liked it, he liked it. If his sister didn’t like it, he didn’t like it either.
He would agree to whatever his sister did without any principles.
Bo Cixue looked at the usually carefree Bo Jingyu, who looked guilty and blamed himself. She laughed lightly. “Tsk tsk, what are you doing? It’s been three years. Do you think your sister is still living in the past?”
After she left the capital and cried for more than ten hours, she had already convinced herself to let go.
She could not ignore the past. After all, it was her youth and was unforgettable.
However, she was not an indecisive person. She would not regret and hesitate after making a decision.
She had walked out from that place.
“Sister, are you really… alright now?”
Bo Cixue raised her arm and held Bo Jingyu. “I have plans to get a boyfriend now. Do you think I’m doing fine?”
“Sister, I have some private photos of the Crown Prince from the past three years. Do you want to see it?”
She had just finished speaking when Bo Cixue grabbed her ear. “Brat, you still dare to test your sister?”
Bo Jingyu cried in pain. “Sister, I was wrong. I was wrong.”
Yan Hua was waiting at the school gate and her eyes turned red when she saw the siblings playing around.
Little Apple seemed to have changed compared to three years ago.
She had never spoken loudly before and had never worn t-s.h.i.+rts or shorts outside. She was the role model of the capital’s socialites and was flawless from head to toe.
But as a mother, she could feel that she was not happy.
She was willing to be tied down only because she liked Ye Jie.
Bo Cixue only remembered that she was too agitated when she saw Yan Hua’s red eyes and came out without changing her clothes.
“Mom, wait a while, I’ll go back to the dormitory.”
“Stop there.” Yan Hua went up to Bo Cixue and held her hand. “You don’t have to be like you were before in front of me.”
Bo Cixue immediately understood what Yan Hua meant.
She sniffled. “Mom…”
Yan Hua pulled Bo Cixue into her arms. “Little Apple, after you left, I thought about a lot of things. I also did some bad things in the past. In the future, my daughter can live however she wants. I will support you.” Yan Hua caressed Bo Cixue’s slender back. “Don’t live like you did before so tiredly.”
“Mom, thank you.”
…
The next day.
Yan Hua brought Bo Cixue to meet Kevin.
After Bo Cixue came to M Country, Yan Hua had asked Kevin to come and give her regular treatment.
Kevin had also opened a new psychiatrist clinic.
“Don’t worry, Mrs Bo. Looking at Cixue’s condition in recent years, her condition has improved a lot. In the past six months, I’ve often talked to her about the Crown Prince and about their childhood, but she has had no abnormalities.”
“I also mentioned to her how the Crown Prince would react if he had a girlfriend. From her reply, it seems like she has really let go of the Crown Prince.”
Yan Hua breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Kevin’s words.
Yan Hua came out of Kevin’s office and Bo Cixue, who was resting in the hall, came up to her. “Mom, I already said that I’m really recovered. Do you believe me now?”
Yan Hua tapped the tip of Bo Cixue’s nose lightly. “I can finally not worry about you.”
“Mom, I still have something to talk to Kevin about. Wait for me here.”
“Go.”
Bo Cixue came to Kevin’s office and he poured her a cup of red tea. “What do you want to talk about?”
Bo Cixue’s slender back leaned lazily against the sofa, gently swirling the red tea in the cup, her long and thick eyelashes slightly lowered. “I have a pursuer who wants to invite me to his hometown. If I agree, it means that I’m giving him a chance.”
Kevin clasped his hands together and placed them on his knees. He looked at Bo Cixue with gentle eyes. “My suggestion is that you put him down and start a new life. If you don’t hate that pursuer, you can give him a chance.”
Bo Cixue chuckled. “Dr Kevin, aren’t you afraid that I’ll be in danger if a girl like me goes to his hometown with a boy?”
“I don’t think any boys who haven’t been rejected by you would be that low and cla.s.sless.”
Bo Cixue smiled like a beautiful flower. “You’re indeed a psychiatrist.”
