Chapter 95 - From Just Be Happy, back to the original period.

Edited by Divetus

When Jing Huan returned home, he found that his cellphone had a lot of messages.

He opened WeChat without even taking his shoes off. There were more than 30 messages, none of which were sent by Xiang Huaizhi.

So he put his cellphone down, went to the bathroom to take a shower, dried his clothes, and then laid down on the bed to slowly flip through them.

As he arrived at the end of his messages, almost all of them were Merry Christmas.

Merry my a.s.s.

All my merriness has died.

Jing Huan replied to all those holiday messages and then clicked on Xiang Huaizhis Moments. It was only when he saw there were no recent updates that he clicked back to the main Moments page.

But then, he saw Liang Rans new post in her Moments..

[Jie: [Christmas tree] I went looking for Jing Huanhuan. Hes still hot and handsome, and so is his senior Why wasnt there this kind of handsome Ge back when I was going to school!! [tears]! ]

Jing Huan was stunned and clicked on the picture below.

There were not only photos of them, but also a photo of Xiang Huaizhi.

He immediately sat up from the bed and opened the keyboard to reply

Xiao Jing

ya

: Jie, why did you post his picture

ah

?!

Who knew that Liang Ran would also reply very quickly.

Liang Ran: Ah, I asked Xiao Xiang, and he agreed.

Oh, thats okay then.

Jing Huan slowly laid back and took another look at the photo.

It was a photo of Xiang Huaizhi by himself. He had taken off his coat, revealing a gray sweater. With his chin propped in one hand, he was casually flas.h.i.+ng a V at the camera.

He didnt even have a photo of Xiang Huaizhi.

Jing Huan stared at the photo for a while before holding down to save it.

He closed the Moments page, only to find that Liang Ran had sent him a message.

Jie: Ah, I forgot to give you my Christmas present.

Jie: I came all the way here to give you this, but I forgot!!!

Jie: [wipes tears]

Jie: Are you there?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Im here.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Its okay, giving it tomorrow will be the same.

Jie: Then, could it still be called a Christmas present?

It could be called a lovelorn gift.

Jing Huan thought in silence.

Jie: By the way, I have something else to ask you.

Xiao Jing

ya

: ?

Jie: Did you make an appointment with someone else today

ah

?

Xiao Jing

ya

: ???

Jie: These roses, they werent for me

ba

.

Xiao Jing

ya

:

Jing Huan sat up from the bed again.

He scratched his head and held his cellphone for a long time.

Xiao Jing

ya

: How did you know?

Jie: Im not stupid!

Jie: There were exactly nine roses, and they were packed so carefully Ive also been confessed to before, okay?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Oh

Jie: Are you dating someone? Or, do you have someone you like now? Youre not just going to stand them up

ba

??

Jie: Where are you? Ill bring them over to you now.

Xiao Jing

ya

: No need.

Jie: Why?

Jie: [Question]

Jie: Speaking of that, if you had a date today, why didnt you just tell me? I couldve just went to get dinner myself

ah

. That young lady wouldnt have misunderstood then

ba

.

Jing Huans heart surged up.

If only it was all just a misunderstanding.

But, he was very clear that this matter wasnt a misunderstanding at all. He had truly tricked Xiang Huaizhi, and that was the reason why he couldnt open his mouth.

He once thought about if their positions were switched. If someone had tricked him into getting married and making him fall in love with them, just for the purpose of getting revenge on himk2026;

Xiang Huaizhi not beating him just now just proved how good of a person he was.

He couldnt just take advantage of Xiang Huaizhi. At that time, his confession wouldve made the scene even more embarra.s.sing.

Xiao Jing

ya

: What gift did you buy for me?

Jie: Dont change the subject.

Xiao Jing

ya

: Shoes again?

Jie: No!

Jie: Good things, it took me a long time to get it. They didnt arrive for your birthday, or else this wouldve been your birthday present.

Liang Ran was still easy to trick, the issue was forgotten within two or three sentences, and she didnt continue to poke at Jing Huans heart.

After chatting with Liang Ran, the dorm group chat began to go crazy. Lu Wenhao sent several voice messages that were longer than 20 seconds after getting drunk.

Knowing that he was drunk, Jing Huan normally wouldnt have even bothered to open any of them, but today, he not only opened them but also listened to them all.

Lu Wenhao said a lot of random things and then began to sing. His tune went all over the place until it flew all the way to Spain.

Jing Huan thought that he was singing a Christmas song, but after listening carefully, he found that it was Eason Chans

Lonely Christmas

.

Xiao Jing

ya

: ?

Xiao Jing

ya

: Today is a holiday, can you sing something happy?

Then, Lu Wenhao sang

Good Days

.

Jing Huan exited the group chat and tapped on his messages. At the bottom was a snowman and a Santa Claus.

He didnt think of it at the time, but now he realized that this emoticon could be his last emoticon to Xiang Huaizhi.

If he had known, he wouldnt have sent Santa.

However you looked at it, he shouldve sent a heart.

Jing Huan found that he couldnt think about it anymore, since his eyes started to sting every time he thought about it.

Otherwise, how would it count as reaping what he had sown.

He hadnt done many bad things in the past, so he thought that G.o.d could turn a blind eye to him, but it turned out that this had been waiting for him all along.

At two oclock in the morning, Jing Huan crawled out of the bed and turned on the computer.

When he got on NCH and reached the character selection page, his heart immediately thumped.

He wouldnt receive a system prompt of forced divorce as soon as he logged in, right?

He lingered for too long on the selection page and exceeded the games time limit, so it directly logged him off.

Two minutes later, he quickly entered the game.

His friends notifications flickered, prompting that he had two unread messages.

Jing Huan didnt rush to open them. He took a cart back home and released Xiao Xiangjing. After stuffing her with food and toys, he triggered Xiao Xiangjings dialogue system.

[Xiao Xiangjing: When I grow up, I want to be just like my mother, fair as a flower, beautiful as the moon, and known all over the world. [biting fingers]]

Jing Huan thought, your mother didnt learn things properly, youd better follow your father

ba

.

Only after all this was done did he resign himself to open up his messages.

[System Prompt: Great hero Xiao Tianjing,

you

havent competed in the arena for three days. If you dont compete again in seven days, the compet.i.tion points will be frozen. If you dont compete again in 24 days, the points will be reduced by 20 points every week. ]

Jing Huan clicked next.

[Friend] Love is For You to Eat: Jingjing, why are you playing in the middle of the night? [surprised]

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing:

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Cant sleep, so I came online to look around.

[Friend] Love is For You to Eat: Really a couple, you guys even get online at almost the same time.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: ???

[Friend] Love is For You to Eat: G.o.d Xiang also just logged in.

Jing Huan immediately glanced at his chat with him. The chat showed (0 / 1), indicating that he wasnt online anymore.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: What did he log in for?

[Friend] Love is For You to Eat: [surprised] This how would I know?

[Friend] Love is For You to Eat: But I did see his location info at the time, he was at your home. When I looked at it again, he was offline.

[Friend] Xiao Tianjing: Ohoh.

Jing Huan pursed his lips and clicked on his friend list.

He saw that Xiang Huaizhis personal data had changed.

From Just Be Happy, back to the original period.

Jing Huan stared at the period for a long time and found that he seemed to have overestimated himself.

Xiang Huaizhi didnt even need to apply for divorce. Just changing a punctuation mark could make Jing Huan feel like a miserable fool.

*

The next day, Jing Huan had an early cla.s.s. The professor had said before that all those who didnt come to the last two cla.s.ses would fail.

His future boyfriend was already gone, so he couldnt just add more problems to his life. Because he got up late, he rushed into the cla.s.sroom without eating breakfast.

When Lu Wenhao saw him, he was shocked. You d.a.m.n Did you go drinking last night?

Jing Huan had a splitting headache, and his voice was hoa.r.s.e. No.

Then how could you look worse than a hungover me? Lu Wenhao asked. If I threw you into a zoo right now, people would surround you thinking that you were a panda.

Jing Huan didnt speak and stretched out his hand towards him.

What? asked Lu Wenhao.

Admission fee. Jing Huan said, Want to stare at the national treasure for nothing?

Lu Wenhao smiled and had just wanted to say something when Gao Zixiang burst into the conversation.

Holy s.h.i.+t, Gao Zixiang said while liking things in his Moments. Your Jiejie is here?

Jing Huan let out an en.

Then why didnt you tell me? I wouldve treated her to dinner

ah

. Gao Zixiang said.

I also didnt know she was coming. Jing Huan said.

When will she leave?

In the afternoon.

Gao Zixiang let out an oh. Then let me make an appointment with her for lunch.

Jing Huan held his cellphone and didnt lift his head. Whatever you like.

After cla.s.s, the three of them walked out of the school, and Liang Ran was already waiting for them at the door.

Ran Jie. Gao Zixiang greeted her familiarly.

Liang Ran looked back and smiled at them. En, I havent seen you in a long time.

Yeah, and youre still so beautiful. Gao Zixiang said, Come, Ill help you carry your

bags

Whats this?

Liang Ran wasnt only carrying a shopping bag but was also holding a paper bag.

She didnt answer. She just opened the shopping bag, took out a baseball cap from it, and placed it on Jing Huans head.

Jing Huan was shocked. Whats this?

Christmas present

ah

. Liang Ran said, Look at the brim.

Jing Huan took it off and only then discovered that it had the signature of his

favorite basketball player

there.

Thank you, Jie, he said as the corners of his mouth pulled up.

Tch, this isnt like you

ah

Gao Zixiang grabbed his shoulder in mock outrage. Look at it clearly! Whose signature is this?!!

Liang Ran was amused by Gao Zixiang. She reached out and also handed Jing Huan the paper bag.

Jing Huan asked, So much?

What?! Liang Ran exclaimed. The hat was your gift. This one is me returning something to you.

Jing Huan was at a loss. Returning something to me?

En, didnt I take the wrong thing yesterday? Returning it to its rightful owner. Liang Ran paused, Although those werent fresh after the night, so these are ones I just bought. Theyre the same type and from the same store.

Jing Huan took over the bag and smelled the faint fragrance of flowers.

He had a small lump in his throat. It took a long time for him to say, Jie.

En?

The plush yesterday Jing Huan looked down and said, That plush was also something I wanted to give to

them

, please return it to me as well

ba

.

Gao Zixiang invited Liang Ran to eat steak, and Jing Huan and Lu Wenhao tagged along.

On the way to dinner, Lu Wenhao kept trying to see what was in the bag, but he never succeeded.

Dont look, its his secret. Liang Ran said. She propped her chin on her hand and whispered to her Didi, Why dont you call that girl over. Ill explain everything to her?

Jing Huan shook his head. No need.

Dont even mention calling him over. He didnt even dare to send any messages to Xiang Huaizhi right now.

It wasnt that he was afraid of being cursed out, it was that he was afraid of receiving the notification that hed been blacklisted after he sent the message.

After lunch, the driver called by Liang Ran had already arrived near the school gate. She went back to the hotel to pick up her luggage and the plush..

Jing Huan was waiting in front of the car. Lu Wenhao and Gao Zixiang were still recounting last nights drunken antics.

He couldnt outdrink the other people, but he still tried to compete with them, and finally had to pretend to throw up to avoid drinking more Is he too much or what? Gao Zixiang said with dislike.

Lu Wenhao was so angry. You were the one pretending, f.u.c.k, Laozi was really throwing up!

Gao Zixiang retorted, You even have the nerve to say that other people made you drunk enough to throw up, shameless.

Lu Wenhao angrily raised his hand and prepared to fight with him on the spot.

Jing Huan spoke one minute and was quiet the next, his cellphone vibrated the entire time. It was vibrating from the people in the guild playing with red envelopes. Every time it vibrated though, he still looked down.

Hey? Isnt that Xiang Ge?

Hearing Lu Wenhaos words, Jing Huan nearly dropped his cellphone.

Where

ah

? Asked Gao Zixiang.

Convenience store, the one right by the school gate. Is it him? Lu Wenhao paused, Must be, there arent that many handsome backs at our school.

Gao Zixiang started laughing after hearing him. The person isnt even here and youre still sucking up to him???

Nah, Lu Wenhao stretched out a hand and called out, Xiang Ge!!

Jing Huan instinctively turned his head and happened to meet Xiang Huaizhis gaze.

They may have only looked at each other for a second, but that was all it took for Jing Huan to be nailed on the spot by his gaze.

Xiang Huaizhi moved his line of sight to look at Lu Wenhao, and he slightly nodded before turning away to leave.

Tch, still so handsome even if hes just nodding, Lu Wenhao jealously said.

Jing Huan agreed, En.

Lu Wenhao patted him on the shoulder. Of course, youre also handsome.

Haoer. Jing Huan stopped for a moment and called out to him.

Ah?

Would you be disgusted if the catfisher from before came back and started to pursue you again?

f.u.c.k, still not finished? Lu Wenhao said, He shouldnt be this shameless?

Its a bit shameless. Jing Huan said.

Lu Wenhao thought about it and felt like the way hed said it mightve been a bit too much. He frowned and considered it a bit more, and was just about to amend his words when the person next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

When my Jie comes, help me get the plush back.

Lu Wenhao was stunned. Ah? Where are you going?

Before Lu Wenhao finished speaking, the person next to him raised his legs and ran towards the school.

If this was shameless, then he was shameless.

You cant eat your own shame after all.

There was a bit of a distance between the station and the school gate. Jing Huan didnt even know how Lu Wenhao had seen Xiang Huaizhi.

He hadnt even run this hard for the 1500m race. When he grabbed a hold of Xiang Huaizhis clothes, he almost couldnt breathe.

Xiang Huaizhi stopped and turned around.

Jing Huan was panting, with his head slightly drooping, and called out, Gege

Xiang Huaizhi stood still and asked, Whats the matter?

His voice was even colder than the chill wind blowing around them.

Jing Huan didnt care. He licked his lips and held out the paper bag in his hands.

This, I wanted to give it to you yesterday. After a pause, his breathing gradually calmed down. Even though yesterday has already pa.s.sed, I still want to give it to you.
