Chapter 3170 Serious Consequences
At 5:30 pm in winter, the surroundings were gray. Only the white snow reflected the faint light around the campus. It was very quiet. Only the occasional sound of snow falling could be heard.
The two of them stepped on the snow side by side. Before they could speak, two freshmen from the two classes came over with shovels and brooms. They were in charge of clearing the snow in this area. They had to start work now.
Seeing the two people walking over, the students didn’t have much of a reaction. The squad leader walked to Ye Jian’s side and saluted his senior. He smiled and said, “Senior Ye, we’re in charge of this area. It might be a little loud later. Please forgive us!”
After a semester of training, the freshmen were already acting like soldiers. Their words and actions were no longer as immature as before. They were more mature and steady.
Ye Jian smiled and said, “Don’t mind us.”
After the soldiers left, Qin Xiu smiled. “You must be very famous in school. Even the freshmen know about you.”
“It’s not much of a reputation. It’s just that I’m always called out by the instructor during training. After a long time, most students remembered my simple name,” Ye Jian replied dryly. After she finished speaking, she smiled and said, “I’m going to have exercises soon. I can’t accompany you too far.”
This was to remind Qin Xiu to say what he wanted to say quickly. After that… it would end.
Qin Xiu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her not-so-tactful words. However, when he thought about what he was going to say next, he felt a little embarrassed. He covered his fist with one hand and coughed before saying, “I was still thinking about what to say. After all, this is the first time I’m doing this. I don’t have any experience and don’t know what the consequences will be.
“I called my friend for help to see what I could do to increase my success rate. In the end, my friend told me that there were only two outcomes.
“The first is success. The other is that I can’t even be your friend. It’s very risky. I don’t want to face serious consequences and can’t even be friends.”
Ye Jian wanted to laugh when she heard that. However, she felt that it wasn’t suitable for her to laugh now. Thus, she endured it!
But how was she supposed to respond?
She realized that she couldn’t. It was better to remain silent.
Qin Xiu was already too embarrassed to look at Ye Jian. His warm gaze, which should have landed on Ye Jian’s face, was aimed straight ahead because he was too nervous. He was a man who could even joke around when facing the difficulties other countries posed. However, right now, his back was tense and even his slender hands were clenched into fists, hidden in his sleeves.
“Ye Jian, do you remember what I said before? I said that I would come to the school to look for you.”
Ye Jian replied in a low voice, “Yes.”
“The last time I came back to the country with you, I wanted to come over as soon as possible. Who knew that my work would be delayed time and again? In the end, I didn’t expect to meet you in Estonia. At that time, we met in a foreign country. We suddenly met without any agreement because the two of us were fated.
“I was impulsive and wanted to say what was in my heart. In the end, it became a pity. I was just one minute away from saying what was in my heart.”
Qin Xiu stopped in front of a big tree. After Ye Jian stopped too, he lowered his head and looked at Ye Jian gently. He walked over slowly as if he was afraid of disturbing Ye Jian. “Ye Jian, what I’m about to say is not rash. It’s from the bottom of my heart. Please give me five minutes, okay? I won’t delay your exercise.”
