Li Yuan had no idea that by walking Xia Zhijin back, he had become the center of conversation in the girls' dormitory.
He glanced at the time; it was just a little past eight in the evening. Li Yuan didn't head straight back to the men's dormitory. Instead, he strolled leisurely to the school's sports field and subconsciously pulled out a cigarette. Just as he was about to light it, he realized he didn't have a lighter.
He sulkily stuffed the cigarette back into its pack. Xia Zhijin, my treasured girl, for your sake, I might really have to quit smoking.
Li Yuan sat on the steps beside the field, watching the couples walking together in twos and threes, an unconscious smile forming on his lips. Today, the time he had spent with Xia Zhijin had been truly wonderful. It felt as if he had completely let himself go, returning to a time of carefree innocence.
