Chapter 79: Chapter 79

"Shall we stay at a hotel tonight?" he whispered in her ear.

Gu Siyi's ears flushed red. She quickly took a step back and said, "No, no, how can I stay out on the very day I report to school… I still need to get to know my roommates."

Xia Zhijun watched her for a moment, then nodded. "Alright, I'll walk you back to your dorm."

He took her hand and turned back. Gu Siyi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since the college entrance exams ended, she'd noticed he sometimes seemed like a different person.

In public, he was still the gentle and refined gentleman, but in private…

As they strolled along the lake, Xia Zhijun rubbed the back of his neck and said, "I've been cooped up in the lab this whole time, and my back and shoulders ache, especially my neck. It's uncomfortable even when I lie down at night."

Seeing his furrowed brow, Gu Siyi said sympathetically, "You should take care of yourself."

Xia Zhijun said lightly, "It's nothing, it's just that the pain keeps me awake at night. I was originally planning to take you out so you could give me a massage…"

"…"

"It's okay, it's only been a few days. I can bear it."

"…" Hearing him say this, Gu Siyi felt incredibly conflicted.

Xia Zhijun, however, appeared indifferent as he led her towards the student dorms.

Gu Siyi suddenly stopped, tugged on his hand, and said, "Let's stay out tonight."

The smile in Xia Zhijun's eyes vanished in a flash. Looking at her, he said understandingly, "Forget it, you just arrived at school. Spend some time with your roommates."

"It's okay, there's plenty of time for that later. Not everyone has arrived at school today anyway. Some people are staying in hotels with their parents."

"Oh." Xia Zhijun looked at her with a faint smile.

"…" Gu Siyi felt a little embarrassed. Hadn't she just contradicted herself?

Never mind. Gu Siyi decisively took out her phone. "I'll check for hotels."

Just as she opened the app, Xia Zhijun took her phone and said, "Booking a hotel is something a boyfriend should do."

He put her phone back in her pocket and, looking up at her, said, "I'm very happy that you're willing to accompany me."

Looking into his star-filled eyes, Gu Siyi felt a warmth spread through her heart and smiled shyly.

Amused by her silly and sweet expression, Xia Zhijun couldn't resist patting her head.

This silly girl, her looks had matured, but her intelligence hadn't quite caught up.

They arrived at the school gate and took a taxi to a hotel.

Considerate of Gu Siyi and wanting to avoid any awkwardness, Xia Zhijun took her to a five-star hotel quite far from the school.

When they arrived at the hotel reception to check in, Gu Siyi kept her head down as she retrieved her ID, too embarrassed to look directly at the receptionist.

Finally, after completing the formalities, Xia Zhijun led her upstairs.

Inside the elevator, Xia Zhijun looked at her lowered eyelashes and flushed cheeks through the mirrored wall and chuckled, "Why do you look like a new bride entering the bridal chamber?"

"…?!?" Gu Siyi looked up and glared at him through the mirror.

Xia Zhijun stood there casually with his hands in his pockets, appearing relaxed on the surface, but the anticipation in his eyes flickered like flames.

During the summer vacation, when Gu Siyi stayed at a hotel in City C for a few days, he'd found a way to stay over every night.

From only being able to steal a few quick kisses before, to truly kissing and holding her while they slept…

He had tasted the forbidden fruit and was now hopelessly addicted.

Entering the room, Gu Siyi walked to the sofa and said, "Come here, I'll give you a massage."

Xia Zhijun readily accepted, lying back on the sofa. Gu Siyi stood behind him and began to massage his neck and shoulders.

"Is this too light?" she asked.

"It's alright," he replied.

"Is it too heavy?" she asked again.

"It's alright," he replied again.

Gu Siyi chided, "You need to give me specific feedback so I can adjust the pressure."

Xia Zhijun paused for two seconds before saying, "You can apply a little more pressure."

"Okay." Gu Siyi was relatively strong for a girl, and her massage genuinely made him feel comfortable.

However, he hadn't brought her here just for a massage…

After a while, Xia Zhijun caught her hand and said, "Alright, take a break."

He pulled her hand, bringing her in front of him, then tugged her down to sit on his lap.

Their eyes met, and Gu Siyi felt inexplicably shy again. Whenever they were alone together now, the atmosphere seemed charged with a sensual energy…

Xia Zhijun wrapped his arms around her neck, gently caressing the back of her neck. Gu Siyi froze, unsure what to do. His eyes were tender as he slowly leaned in and kissed her.

Again… As if anticipating his kiss, she accepted it readily.

At least they were in their own private space now, not in the awkward setting of the small woods on campus.

Thanks to their previous deep kiss, this time he kissed her slowly and tenderly, as if savoring her taste bit by bit. Gu Siyi felt like a frog being slowly boiled in warm water, her initially hesitant heart gradually melting away under the sweet and tender affection. She collapsed in his arms, lost in his gentle kiss.

Their breathing grew heavier, and the temperature in the room continued to rise.

Her cheeks burned, and she felt as if she were melting in his embrace.

When the rolling hills of her delicate landscape were conquered, Gu Siyi snapped back to reality and abruptly jumped up, fleeing.

Her face was burning. She turned around, pulled down her short-sleeved shirt, and turned her back to him.

Xia Zhijun took a deep breath and said, "Alright, go take a shower."

Gu Siyi hurried into the bathroom.

She hadn't realized that her shirt had ridden up, and the clasps of her bra underneath had been undone.

As Gu Siyi showered, her body continued to burn. Recalling the sensation from moments ago, she trembled all over.

Throughout her three years of high school, she had watched them develop little by little, becoming much larger than they were in her first year… Fortunately, Zheng Peipei's had always been large, sparing her from excessive embarrassment.

She hadn't expected the sensation of being touched there to be so… so…

After showering, Gu Siyi emerged wearing a bathrobe, her face flushed as she said to Xia Zhijun, "You can go shower now."

Xia Zhijun looked at her with a smile playing on his lips. "I thought you had fallen asleep in there."

"I don't want to talk to you…" Gu Siyi grumbled.

Xia Zhijun walked over to her, touched her damp hair, and said, "Come here, let me dry your hair first."

Gu Siyi: "It's okay… I can do it myself. You go shower."

"No rush." He led her to the vanity outside the bathroom, plugged in the hairdryer provided, and began drying her hair.

Looking at the girl's charming face in the mirror, Xia Zhijun smiled and whispered, "Why are you getting more and more beautiful?"

"…" Gu Siyi lowered her eyes and, to hide her embarrassment, retorted, "We've already done that, so there's no need for flattery."

Xia Zhijun said, "Actually, what we did before wasn't enough."

"…??"

"True intimacy is baring your souls to each other, body and soul."

"…………"

"Don't you think so?" he asked softly.

Completely unable to handle this sly wolf, Gu Siyi's mind short-circuited.

After a long pause, she blurted out, "Should I run for class representative?"

"…" Xia Zhijun paused, then said, "If you're enthusiastic about organizing activities, then run for it. If you want more free time, then don't."

"Oh."

After Xia Zhijun finished drying Gu Siyi's hair, he went to take a shower.

Before Gu Siyi could leave, she saw him turn around and take off his shirt, revealing his back—

Broad shoulders, defined shoulder blades, and a narrow waist that tapered downwards, all showcasing his masculine strength and physique.

As Xia Zhijun continued undressing, Gu Siyi snapped out of her trance and quickly ran out.

Late at night, before going to sleep, Gu Siyi looked at Xia Zhijun and reminded him, "Sleep well."

"Okay," Xia Zhijun replied.

Once in bed, he embraced her, inhaled deeply, and said in a husky voice, "You smell so good."

Gu Siyi remained silent. At times like these, she just wanted to be a quiet, unmoving salted fish.

He spoke to her through the sleepwear, "Sleeping in this isn't good for you."

"Who says…"

"Do I need to find scientific articles to show you?"

"…" She knew, even without the science, that sleeping like this was uncomfortable.

She still had lingering fear from the earlier incident when he'd attacked her breasts during their kiss…

"I'll turn around and not look. Take it off yourself."

"It's fine, I can sleep like this…"

He insisted, "No. It's not good for you."

She tried to resist, "One night won't hurt."

"We can't develop bad habits." Xia Zhijun's tone was serious.

"…" How was one night a bad habit? T-T

Xia Zhijun sat up, turned his back to her, and said, "I'll give you ten seconds. Or maybe in ten seconds, I'll take it off for you myself."

"…" Gu Siyi panicked.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven…"

As he counted down, Gu Siyi quickly sat up, fumbling with the clasps as she said, "Ten seconds isn't enough, give me ten more seconds!"

Hearing the rustling sounds from her side, Xia Zhijun couldn't help but chuckle.

His voice, however, remained serious as he said, "Alright, ten more seconds. No need to rush."

Gu Siyi quickly removed the bra and put on her pajamas, letting out a sigh of relief. "Done."

They lay down again. Xia Zhijun held her properly this time, and Gu Siyi finally relaxed.

A while later, she drifted off to sleep, but he remained wide awake.

He couldn't help but replay the image of her beautiful landscape in his mind…

Like a divine treasure, full of endless allure, making him lose himself.

.

The next day, Xia Zhijun took Gu Siyi out for breakfast and then escorted her back to the student dorms.

When Gu Siyi returned to her dorm, all three of her roommates were there. They chatted for a while and quickly got to know each other.

Wang Shu, the girl from Northeast China, was rather tall and spoke with a distinct Northeastern accent, which Gu Siyi found as amusing as watching a Spring Festival Gala skit. Zhang Weilan, from Southern China, had fair skin, was slender, had adorable freckles, and a light mole on the tip of her nose. She looked sweet and innocent. Liu Chang, from Central China, was a bit chubby, but her weight was evenly distributed, and she was surprisingly agile, not appearing bloated at all.

Gu Siyi was the tallest and most beautiful of the four. As soon as she entered, Liu Chang exclaimed, "Wow, are you in our dorm?"

Zhang Weilan, who had carefully dressed up and applied makeup, looked at Gu Siyi with a flash of admiration in her eyes. "Wow, you're so pretty."

"Thank you," Gu Siyi replied with a generous smile.

In the afternoon, they went to the classroom for their class meeting together.

Other majors might have more male students, but the gender ratio in their management department was relatively balanced, with girls almost making up half the class.

The boys arrived at the classroom early, eagerly anticipating the arrival of their female classmates.

Perhaps among them were their future girlfriends?

When Gu Siyi and her roommates entered the classroom, the boys' eyes lit up.

There was a petite beauty and a tall beauty! Excellent!

After the four of them took their seats, a few more girls came in. A petite girl with a porcelain doll-like beauty caught everyone's attention. Her chin-length hair and large, bright eyes stood out on her small face.

"Wow, the girls in our class are high-quality this year!"

"Whoever said that engineering schools are full of unattractive girls has been proven wrong."

"So lucky, the guys in other departments must be dying of envy."

As everyone excitedly got to know their new classmates, the counselor arrived with two second-year student class representatives to introduce themselves.

The senior student was tall and handsome, immediately attracting the attention of the girls.

After the teacher and the class representatives gave brief speeches, it was time for the students to introduce themselves.

When Gu Siyi took the stage, Zhang Sicheng, the class representative who had been absentmindedly playing with his phone, looked up and froze.

Even after she finished speaking and walked off the stage, he hadn't recovered, his gaze following her figure.

As the class meeting neared its end, Zhang Sicheng actively created a class group chat and added everyone.

Soon, everyone in the class was in the group chat. Zhang Sicheng found Gu Siyi's profile and sent her a friend request.

Gu Siyi was chatting with the classmates next to her and didn't see the friend request.

The class meeting ended, and everyone went downstairs in small groups.

Gu Siyi walked with her roommates. As soon as they reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw Xia Zhijun.

He was sitting on a bicycle, one long leg propping it up, scrolling through his phone, clearly waiting for someone.

When he looked up and saw Gu Siyi, she clearly heard the gasps of admiration from the surrounding students.

Gu Siyi quickly walked over to Xia Zhijun. He asked, "Are you done?"

Gu Siyi: "There's nothing else scheduled. Military training starts tomorrow."

Xia Zhijun: "Then get on. I'll take you to dinner."

"Wow, who's that guy?"

"He's so handsome…"

"Oh my god, incredibly handsome!"
