After Xia Zhiyi left, Wang Sheng finally sat down in his seat, picked up the cup on the table, and drank the water in one gulp before sighing, "I never expected that our fourth roommate would be the first to find a boyfriend, and one who looks amazing."
After his reflection, he remembered something and turned to Lin Li, who was pacing around the dormitory looking at something, "Hey, Old Lin, did you get a good look at what that person looked like?"
Wang Sheng: "I was a little nervous and didn't dare to look closely. I forgot."
Lin Li didn't answer, but instead asked Ouyang Qi, " Ouyang Qi, did you see it clearly?"
Ouyang Qi went back to reading and, without even looking up when asked the question, replied, "No."
Lin Li then replied, "Me neither."
Wang Sheng: "... Then the three of us didn't even get a clear look at what she looked like?"
Lin Li muttered, "Although I couldn't see clearly, she's definitely a beauty."
Wang Sheng: "What do you mean?"
Lin Li: "Because I've seen the video."
Wang Sheng remained silent.
Wang Sheng: "Then you're saying you didn't see it clearly."
Lin Li: "People in videos aren't exactly the same as people in real life! Look at Xia Zhiyi, doesn't she look much more refined in person than on camera? The camera can ruin your looks!"
Wang Sheng: "That person might have already reached adulthood! Our Xiao Xia is still young! She's only just come of age and is still growing!"
Lin Li: "?"
Lin Li: "You're sick!"
Wang Sheng: "Did I say something wrong?"
Ouyang Qi, annoyed by the noise, turned to the two of them speechlessly. "Why are you discussing this? He's not your boyfriend. How he looks is his own Xia Zhiyi."
Wang Sheng & Lin Li: "..."
Okay, that makes a lot of sense.

After Xia Zhiyi met up with Fu Chi, she checked the time and found that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, so the two of them didn't continue shopping and drove away from the school.
"I've been busy these past few days, so even though it's a holiday, I can't be with you. Get a good night's sleep when you get home tonight. If you still feel unwell tomorrow, tell me, and I'll make time to come over and give you a couple more acupuncture treatments," Xia Zhiyi said.
Fu Chi turned his gaze away from the window.
No matter how far he looked, everything was in color. Plus, Xia Zhiyi told him not to stare at her, so Fu Chi obediently looked at the scenery outside.
Fu Chi: "I'm all better now."
He paused, then added, "It's not a serious illness. A day of rest should be enough. You've been running around so much, it must be tiring for you."
Although Fu Chi also wanted to see Xia Zhiyi again tomorrow, Fu Chi felt it was completely unnecessary if Xia Zhiyi had to take time out of her busy schedule to fly over to see him.
Fu Chi: "... May I come see you?"
Rather than making Xia Zhiyi suffer, it would be better for him to go see him.
"Me?" Xia Zhiyi thought for a moment and said, "It might not be very convenient; this matter seems to need to be kept secret."
Upon hearing this, Fu Chi's eyes darkened slightly.
He seemed somewhat disappointed.
But upon closer inspection, there doesn't seem to be any particularly obvious change; it still maintains that calm and composed demeanor.
Well, if Fu Chi hadn't grabbed his hand.
Xia Zhiyi glanced at their clasped hands, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said, "It's okay, I'll ask them later, and I'll let you know if it's possible."
"But you're usually pretty busy, so you might not have the time."
Xia Zhiyi: "With today's advanced communication technology, we can always meet online via video if necessary."
As he spoke, he gently squeezed the man's index finger, then lowered his eyes and continued, "But don't worry, now that we're dating, I definitely won't be the kind of jerk who only cares about work and doesn't care about his boyfriend. I'll come see you when I have time."
"Yes, you can come find me at school if you have time. Although I'm not staying at school these days, I'll definitely be going back to my dorm after the holiday."
"Oh, by the way, I'll send you a copy of my class schedule so you can have a clearer picture of my schedule. What do you think?"
Fu Chi: "Okay."
Xia Zhiyi acted immediately, transferring the class schedule to Fu Chi via her phone. She added, "Even if the schedule at school is adjusted according to the class schedule, I don't have anything to do outside of school right now. You should be able to ask Xu Chen directly, right?"
Fu Chi nodded.
Xia Zhiyi nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, that way you'll know whenever I'm free."
He thought for a moment, then continued, "But you're my boyfriend, and boyfriends have special privileges. If you're free but I'm not, you can tell me, and I can ask for leave."
Fu Chi: "No need, I'll arrange it."
Xia Zhiyi smiled and didn't take it too seriously.
Afterwards, Xia Zhiyi contacted Xia Wanyi and obtained their address. She then took Fu Chi to a well-regarded restaurant in the Imperial Capital for dinner, and Fu Chi personally escorted her back to her residence.
Xia Wanyi the car, she handed him the gift she had prepared that afternoon for her new brother-in-law Fu Chi.
Fu Chi was slightly taken aback, but quickly reached out and accepted the gift from his boyfriend's sister with both hands. Looking up, he saw Xia Wanyi smiling gently at him, saying softly, "I'm sorry, because I didn't expect you to be with my brother, I didn't make any preparations beforehand, so the preparations were a bit rushed."
Xia Wanyi: "It's nothing expensive. Since I don't know your preferences, I thought and thought, and I really didn't know what kind of gift to prepare for our first meeting. Since you're already Zhiyi's boyfriend, I just bought you two a set of couple keychains. I don't know if you'll like them."
As she spoke, she raised her hand to slightly cover half of her face, looking a little embarrassed. "If you don't like this one, it's okay if you don't want it. I'll pick out a better one for you later."
Fu Chi replied very earnestly, "Thank you, I like it very much."
Seeing him like this, Xia Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly, "Ah, it's so great that you like it."
Xia Zhiyi popped out from the side, rested her chin on Xia Wanyi's shoulder, and asked curiously, "Hey? A couple's keychain? Fu Chi, you open it and give me mine, I'll change into it tonight."
Xia Wanyi smiled and turned her head to look at her younger brother, "Where did you two go this afternoon?"
Xia Zhiyi: "I took Fu Chi to visit my school."
Xia Wanyi: "Oh dear, I originally wanted to take Xiao Zhen to your school for a stroll, but Xiao Zhen said she wanted to go with you, so we went to the main square instead."
As they were talking, Fu Chi had already unpacked the box, revealing a pair of keychains placed on a red velvet cloth.
The keychain features a sun and moon design and is exquisitely crafted. The sun is gold and the moon is silver, creating a perfectly integrated sun and moon image when placed together, and they don't look out of place when separated.
Xia Zhiyi smiled and took the gold keychain, "Then I'll take this sun one."
