Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 71: Feng Nanshu’s Moment to Shine

Having arranged to dine with Hong Yan yesterday, it felt necessary to inquire about her plans to change majors, both as a friend and out of obligation.

Additionally, the search for a permanent office location was still unresolved. Jiang Qin intended to stroll near the campus to see if there were any suitable shops for rent.

Located not too close to both the east campus of Linchuan University and the main campus, South Street was an ideal midpoint.

Aside from the pedestrian street, South Street was another commercial area, where all shops were available for lease. Finding an office space here would be convenient for both the technical team from the main campus and the content team from the east campus.

However, due to its proximity to the university town, the rent was steep, and few were willing to sublet, so luck would play a big part.

As dusk fell, the sky darkened.

Magnificent fire clouds stretched across the sky, seemingly burning through half of the horizon.

Feng Nanshu followed behind Jiang Qin, her black heeled shoes clacking on the pavement.

Her skin was so fair it seemed to outshine snow, her figure tall and slender. The black long skirt swayed with the wind, accentuated by a red belt, giving her an air of sophistication.

Yet, who would guess that she was actually fond of seeking Jiang Qins comfort and loved to eat, a cute and soft girl at heart?

Sit here for a while; Ill order. Dont wander off.

Jiang Qin, I want to eat crayfish.

Why do you always like these colorful foods?

Feng Nanshu slightly wrinkled her nose and straightened her skirt, sitting upright with a cool, distant look in her eyes, void of emotion.

Male students along the way couldnt help but be drawn to her, yet her aloof demeanor deterred them from staring.

Her black attire conveyed solemnity, and the red accent added a glimpse of stunning beauty. Her expressionless, exquisite features created an overwhelming presence.

This demeanor resembled her high school days: indifferent and unapproachable, easily mistaken for a cold goddess.

Meanwhile, as Jiang Qin was ordering, Hong Yan had arrived at South Street from the east campus.

Dressed in a plaid skirt with white shoes, she exuded a youthful sweetness.

Jiang Qin, Im here.

Im at Table 7 in Shiwei Tian.

Okay, Im heading over.

After putting away her phone, Hong Yan took a deep breath, steadied her nerves, and walked towards the brightly lit outdoor dining area.

Since her dramatic incident on South Street, Hong Yan knew she had been subtly rejected by Jiang Qin. They hadnt been in contact since, not even exchanging goodnight messages for over a week.

So, when Jiang Qin messaged her yesterday inviting her to dinner, she was genuinely surprised but couldnt resist accepting.

However, as Hong Yan approached Shiwei Tian, her heart skipped a beat.

The reason was simple: at Table 7 sat a beautiful girl, poised and expressionless, her aura commanding respect.

Despite the casual surroundings and noisy environment, she remained untouched by vulgarity.

Hong Yan, always confident in her own beauty, felt immense pressure in front of this girl. The girls cold gaze, attire, and demeanor were all forbidding, creating an unapproachable aura.

Hong Yan double-checked the table number, confirming it was correct, then nervously approached, sitting down under Feng Nanshus watchful gaze.

Hello, Im Hong Yan.

Feng Nanshu, Jiang Qins best friend, for life.

Hong Yan felt suffocated, her lips involuntarily pressing together.

The girls presence was overpowering, especially her crisp, cold voice and emphatic tone.

Hong Yan, typically mature and elegant, felt she couldnt match Feng Nanshus level. Just sitting there gracefully, Feng Nanshu made other girls feel inferior.

Classmate Feng, are you also from the Finance Department?

Yes, I am.

We must be of the same age then. When is your birthday?

February 3rd.

As Feng Nanshu spoke, she couldnt help but mutter inwardly, thinking, Jiang Qin, why arent you here yet? Im running out of things to say.

Socializing was indeed troublesome. If only everyone liked to play with their toes like you.

Meanwhile, Hong Yan, head bowed as if drinking water, couldnt help but feel a bit envious. Truly confident people really do shine.

Just as they were conversing, Jiang Qin finished ordering and came out of Shiwei Tian. Long time no see, Hong Yan.

Its been a while. I thought you had made an appointment with the wrong person. I was a bit nervous coming here, Hong Yan said with a light smile.

Jiang Qin sat down, pouring tea. Actually, I invited you to talk about your plan to change majors.

How did you know? Hong Yan was surprised.

I ran into Si Huiying before. She told me. Shes worried about your decision but said she couldnt persuade you, so she thought of asking me for help.

She really knows where my weakness lies.

Jiang Qin took a sip of water. Im curious, why are you so set on changing majors?

Hong Yan pursed her lips, You once said college life is wonderful and having a harmonious dorm relationship is important. But I cant get along with Chu Siqi anymore. I get angry every time I see her.

It doesnt have to lead to a change in major, though.

Its partly because of my family. My dad prefers me to study something related to trade.

Jiang Qin looked at her. Si Huiying said you really like law. Isnt it a pity?

Hong Yan chuckled and shook her head. Shes mistaken. I didnt choose law because I liked it; I learned to like it because I chose it. It wouldnt make a difference if I switched to another major.

Its not a spur-of-the-moment decision?

Definitely not.

Feng Nanshu, who had been silent, suddenly remembered a quote from The Magic Eyed Girl: Dont change your choices based on others opinions. Do what you think is right.

Hong Yan was taken aback, then looked at Feng Nanshu with a hint of admiration. Feng, I wish I could be as confident as you.

??????

Jiang Qin looked baffled at the two, thinking, Is there a misunderstanding between you two? Feng Nanshu is less confident than a peanut. She doesnt even dare to go out alone, always saying goodnight. Wheres her confidence?

Then he looked at Feng Nanshu, whose face was cold, and thought, Feng Nanshu, your summary is strangely on point. Are you acting again?

Hong Yan, I want to ask you something else. Can you tell me the answer?

Feng Nanshu nodded confidently. Go ahead.

If you really like someone, but they dont like you back, what should you do? Hong Yan asked, biting her lip.

Feng Nanshus expression turned cold. The end of being lovers is likely to never cross paths again in life, and some even become enemies.

So, its like that

Hong Yans eyes dimmed. After a while, she smiled faintly, and when she looked up again, she saw Feng Nanshus figure shining in the evening twilight.

Jiang Qin chuckled, thinking, You really are bold in teaching and learning.

AN: Shamelessly begging for votes, please!
