Chapter 6: Chapter 06 He Asks Nanxi, Do You Miss Me?_1
"Nanxi, it's your phone!"
Yang Su, who was on the lower bunk, got up and picked up the phone from the desk. Seeing the caller ID, with a touch of playfulness, she unlocked the phone and answered...
"Nanxi, are you asleep yet..."
From the other side of the call, a pleasant and clear male voice came through, so gentle that Yang Su couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, "I'm sleepin' all right, but you woke me up, darling. What are you going to do to make it up to me? How about you fly over here and I'll give you a bite?"
At this moment, Nanxi had come down from the bed, her face blushing. She took the phone from Yang Su, gave her a pinch on the arm, and headed straight for the balcony!
With a dent in her arm, Yang Su grumbled, "Such a fierce girl!"
...
The call was from Li Weihuan, who was currently in America. It should be noon there now. Nanxi heard sounds of a car revving up on the other end, asked him, "Have you had lunch yet?"
"I'm about to go eat... Sorry for disturbing you so late!"
Gazing at the quiet campus in the night, facing the gentle breeze, Nanxi said, "That's all right, it just means that you remember me."
"Of course, I remember you, Nanxi, you have no idea how much I miss you! I wish I could fly over to you right now!"
Li Weihuan was always straightforward when he talked, but Nanxi knew this wasn't just sweet talk; Li Weihuan wasn't the type to say sweet nothings!
If it's not sweet talk, then it must be heartfelt words!
The voice from the other end came again, "Nanxi, do you miss me?"
Bitting her lip, lowering her head, his voice was soft and gentle like he was gently breathing in her ear, that made her blush. She replied softly, "Mhm..."
She just couldn't say anything too cheesy...
Li Weihuan, on the other side, seemed very pleased and said, "In that case, Nanxi, you should go to bed earlier. I will try to call you a bit earlier tomorrow..."
"Okay!" said Nanxi obediently.
Just before hanging up, Li Weihuan seemed to hesitate, then called out, "Nanxi..."
"Hm? What is it?" Nanxi frowned.
"In half a year, I will be back!"
Li Weihuan took a deep breath, then said, "Nanxi, promise me... Wait for me!"
"Okay!" Nanxi agreed.
...
Early the next morning, Nanxi got up early, went to the canteen to buy breakfast for Yang Su and Lan Qiqi, and then woke them up!
Both of them were lazing around, but once they were awake, they eventually got up after a bit of reluctance...
Nanxi tidied up the dormitory a bit before turning on her computer to continue working on her paper in the depth of the day. Yang Su came back from washing up, looking confused and rummaging through her things. Nanxi turned to ask, "What's wrong? Did you lose something?"
Yang Su: "Nanxi, do we have any pads? My period came...ouch, it's four days earlier than last month!"
Nanxi opened the drawer, and after a brief hesitation, replied, "I don't have any either, but I think I have a spare one in my bag. You take that for now to help you out!"
Yang Su expressed her gratitude teary-eyed and immediately began rummaging through Nanxi's bag...
"Nanxi, whose handkerchief is this? Yours? It doesn't seem like your style!"
Nanxi was puzzled, a handkerchief?
The image of a slender hand that was engraved in her mind when she was coughing flashed before her eyes. She immediately stood up from the chair, rushed towards Yang Su, and grabbed the handkerchief...
Oh no, the handkerchief needs to be returned to him...
But the question now was...how should she return it to him...
