Chapter 142: Chapter 142: The Awaited Person Fails to Appear "Eating halfway through, a few girls sat down at the table next to us, and upon seeing Shen Weiyi, they confirmed with each other before whispering among themselves. I could faintly hear Sheng Ting’s name. "It seems what you said was right," Shen Weiyi said to Qin Zhen, "Senior Sheng really does have great charm." Qin Zhen, "So? Do you want to give it a try?" Does he think love is like a free tasting? Like it, and you take it; dislike it, and you leave it? Qin Zhen propped his chin and scrutinized her, "Shen Weiyi, you’re not up to par. You were so decisive when you dumped someone, saying ’break up’ and that was it, like ten bulls couldn’t drag you back. Why are you hesitating to start a new relationship? That doesn’t seem like your style." "Enough, stop trying to provoke me!" How could it be considered her dumping Jiang Zhiyi, when it was that guy being too dramatic, giving her the silent treatment first, and only then did she bring up breaking up. "Stop talking about me. At least I’ve been in a relationship before. What about you? Do you have any ideal targets?" Qin Zhen, "Don’t worry, if I meet someone suitable I’ll definitely make my move right away and not leave any chance for others." After breakfast, they both headed to the school’s sports center. Sheng Ting had specifically brought her here yesterday, so it was easy to find the place. Soon, all the freshmen would be here for the opening ceremony and the military training mobilization meeting. There were a lot of people at the sports center; when Shen Weiyi entered, she almost bumped into someone. Fortunately, the person in front of her gave her a hand. "Sorry," she quickly straightened her body and looked up, not expecting to see an unexpected yet inevitable figure. It was Jiang Zhiyi. He stared at her steadily; it had been almost a month since they’d last seen each other, and he’d noticeably lost a lot of weight. She feared he hadn’t been eating well during this time. Seeing his tall and thin figure, Shen Weiyi felt an indescribable feeling rise in her heart. "Old Jiang, what are you looking at?" The boy next to him patted his shoulder. His gaze fell unintentionally on Shen Weiyi standing in front of him, and he couldn’t help but let out a "huh," then started making faces at Jiang Zhiyi. "It’s nothing." He withdrew his hand and said to Shen Weiyi, "Be careful." He then walked off with the boy next to him towards their class area. She could faintly still hear the boy beside him teasing, "That girl just now was pretty, I wonder which department she’s from? You weren’t just standing there on purpose, awaiting for her to bump into you, were you?" Shen Weiyi didn’t hear Jiang Zhiyi’s response, her mood complex as she retracted her gaze, only to meet Qin Zhen’s gossip-filled eyes, "Looking at the two of you, you seem like star-crossed lovers forced to part. Tsk, the way Jiang was looking at you just now, it’s clear his feelings for you are deeply rooted, and he’s still carrying a torch for you. What a sin!" I don’t know what kind of luck this girl has, the guys around her are not only more handsome than one another, but they are also more passionately devoted than the last. It’s just maddening how people can differ so much. "That’s enough, no more gossip!" Although the feelings are past, they’d been together for so long. It’s like raising a dog by hand and then giving it away; there will always be some reluctance. However, if it’s not suitable, it’s not suitable, the harder you try, the worse the outcome might be. By two o’clock in the afternoon, the field was dense with people. Even though it was already into September, the weather was still unbearably hot. A multitude of students stood under the scorching sun, growing restless and impatient as the person they were waiting for was yet to appear."
