Chapter 83: Chapter 83

Gu Siyi reassured her, "But you can cuddle and be affectionate with Dou! Celebrities are just for admiring from afar for other people. Can't you hug, kiss, and playfully tease each other when you're unhappy?"

Zheng Peipei was struck by this, her face instantly breaking into a smile. Hugging Gu Siyi, she said, "Happy! I'm super happy when we're together! I just love how gentle and meek he is when I bully him… It's incredibly cute, okay?"

…Gentle… bullied…

Gu Siyi looked to the heavens. "What's it like to bully a top student? I really want to experience it."

Zheng Peipei laughed. "The top student isn't the same type as my Susu. The top student seems very dominant!"

"…" Gu Siyi rested her chin in her hand. Very dominant? She couldn't help but argue, "Actually, he's also very gentle."

"Then he's a gentle dominant!" Zheng Peipei giggled.

Late at night, the two lay in bed, still excited. Especially Zheng Peipei, being in a long-distance relationship and missing her boyfriend, she was particularly interested in Gu Siyi's daily life.

"Have you two… done that?" Zheng Peipei asked softly, a little embarrassed, but more curious and excited.

"That?" Gu Siyi asked, "Which that…"

"Just that… the thing men do together… which other that is there…"

Gu Siyi understood, blushing. "That… not yet…"

"Wow, so the top student really is a virgin…"

Gu Siyi: "…"

"Don't you want to?"

"…" Gu Siyi was once again speechless.

"Has he kissed you then?"

"…Yes." Not only kissed, but quite frequently.

When they walked around campus at night, he always liked to lead her to secluded groves of trees.

"How does it feel? Very comfortable, right?" Zheng Peipei laughed, recalling the scenes of kissing Su Han, her expression softening.

"That…" Gu Siyi was at a loss for words.

How to describe that feeling? Her whole body tingled with excitement, almost making her breathless…

Comfortable wasn't quite the right word. Perhaps she was too nervous, and it was too stimulating. She hadn't completely relaxed into that kind of kiss…

Zheng Peipei sighed. "I don't have the opportunity. If I were with my boyfriend every day like you, I'd be in heaven! …Speaking of which, since the top student is a virgin, you can find a way! Seduce him hard, tempt him, and see if he can still resist!"

"…" In fact, he didn't need any tempting.

"You have to take the initiative to satisfy him. Eighteen-year-old boys are at their peak, you know."

Gu Siyi couldn't take it anymore and quickly changed the subject. "Your Su Han's new song is really good! It's so popular. During military training, we even sang it together during our breaks."

"Of course! It's the same at our school! So many people love his songs… It's so hard not being able to tell the world he's mine!"

As soon as Su Han was mentioned, Zheng Peipei chattered excitedly, and Gu Siyi found it relaxing to listen to her.

It was like being back in high school, chatting about random things before bed, and then falling asleep…

The next day, under a clear blue sky, they all agreed to go climb the Great Wall.

They chartered a vehicle, and the six of them set off for the Badaling Great Wall.

After walking for a while, before even reaching the wall, Zheng Peipei regretted it, whining, "Why did I agree to climb the Great Wall? Wasn't the suffering during military training enough?"

Gu Siyi said, "It's different. Military training on the field was so boring. Now we're out here breathing fresh air, experiencing the magnificent landscape."

Zheng Peipei gave her a look of disdain. "You're an exercise maniac, with endless energy. I have nothing in common with you in this regard."

Xia Zhijun bought some water and brought it over, handing a bottle to each of them.

Zheng Peipei took the water and teased, "Top student, your Yi Ge has boundless energy. It seems you're not working hard enough."

This was a bit suggestive, and Gu Siyi didn't react immediately, but Xia Zhijun understood instantly.

The water he had just handed over was taken back, and Xia Zhijun, leaving behind a cold back, continued to distribute water to the others.

"Hey, wait… Boss, I was wrong, okay? Give me a break…" Zheng Peipei immediately surrendered, pleading for water. She didn't want to walk so far to buy it herself.

Xia Zhijun had no sympathy for anyone other than Gu Siyi. Ignoring Zheng Peipei's pitiful pleas, he put the bottle directly into his backpack and strode forward.

With Lu Jiaye and Su Han absent, Zheng Peipei had no one else to turn to, so she could only ask Gu Siyi for water. "Yi Ge, help me…"

Gu Siyi gave her her bottle of water and quickly caught up with Xia Zhijun.

Taking Xia Zhijun's hand, she looked at him with pleading eyes. "Thirsty…"

Xia Zhijun turned around, met her pleading gaze, and gave her the half-drunk bottle of water in his hand.

Gu Siyi was slightly startled. Xia Zhijun glanced at her. "Not drinking?"

Gu Siyi stopped, unscrewed the cap, and took a big gulp. They were a bit shy about it in high school, but now they often exchanged saliva, so sharing a bottle of water was nothing.

Xia Zhijun waited beside her, the corners of his mouth curving slightly.

After she finished drinking, he took the bottle back, held her hand, and continued walking.

Poor, lonely Zheng Peipei walked behind with Xiang Li. Zhang Xinyi followed beside Zhou Xiao. The two attended the same university, and after entering university, Zhou Xiao took better care of her, and their relationship was closer than in high school.

Xiang Li and Zheng Peipei chatted about gossip behind them, while Gu Siyi and Xia Zhijun held hands and climbed the steps in front.

Zhang Xinyi, wearing small heels, struggled to keep up with Zhou Xiao, panting from exhaustion. Zheng Peipei couldn't help but shout, "Zhou Xiao, can't you walk slower and wait for the girl? There's at least a ten-centimeter height difference between you two, right?"

Zhou Xiao: "…"

Zhang Xinyi blushed and hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay… I'm just too slow…"

Zhou Xiao, the stereotypical straight man, slowed his pace after being reminded, keeping in line with Zhang Xinyi.

Although he didn't say anything, Zhang Xinyi noticed the change and smiled as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Zheng Peipei turned to Xiang Li and whispered, "If Xingxing wants to chase this straight man, she's got a long way to go."

Xiang Li smiled. "How would we know the sweetness in her heart? I see her enjoying it, very happy."

Zheng Peipei: "But it's really amazing. Even though they're in university, with a broader perspective and meeting more people, how come they still end up falling for their high school classmates?"

Xiang Li: "If you meet someone amazing too early in life, it's hard to be interested in others later…"

Zheng Peipei turned to stare at Xiang Li's face. "Why do I feel like you have a story to tell?"

"Don't be silly… I'm just sighing for Xingxing." Xiang Li smiled and turned her face away, but the image of that carefree, handsome, and bright boy surfaced in her mind. Wherever he was, there was always laughter. He had reasons to be arrogant, yet he was adorably silly.

However, she knew that boy liked Zheng Peipei… She could only keep him in her heart, a memory of her youth.

Since it was the weekend, the Great Wall was crowded with tourists.

Although it wasn't as packed as during the long holidays, it was still shoulder-to-shoulder.

Xia Zhijun held Gu Siyi's hand and walked slowly, putting his arm around her shoulders in narrow passages to prevent her from being bumped by others.

Reaching a section of the wall, Gu Siyi took out her phone and said, "Let's take a picture."

Xia Zhijun cooperated, standing behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist, looking at the camera. Gu Siyi tilted her face up, and click, a photo was taken.

As she took the second picture, Xia Zhijun suddenly turned his face and kissed her cheek, which was captured perfectly.

Gu Siyi looked at the frozen image. It wasn't blurry, and the captured moment felt incredibly real and sweet. She couldn't help but smile.

Xia Zhijun said, "Send it to me later."

After the two finished taking pictures, the students took photos together happily.

As they were taking pictures, several soldiers in uniform marched past them. Zheng Peipei cried out, "So handsome!"

The girls echoed her sentiment. "…Handsome! So handsome! I want to marry them!"

Gu Siyi looked up and met Xia Zhijun's deep eyes, his amused gaze fixed on her. Gu Siyi said, "…Not bad."

She walked to Xia Zhijun's side, took his hand, and continued walking. As they walked, she linked her arm through his and whispered, "My boyfriend is the most handsome in the world!"

Caught off guard by this sudden compliment, Xia Zhijun appeared calm on the surface, but a smile flickered in his eyes.

Just as Gu Siyi was feeling proud of herself, Xia Zhijun slowly asked, "Want to marry him?"

"…" Defeated.

Gu Siyi pursed her lips and remained silent, a blush creeping up her cheeks.

Zheng Peipei, watching their backs, sighed. "How can even their backs look so sweet?"

Xiang Li laughed. "Next time, bring your celebrity out and show us some PDA."

Zheng Peipei nodded. "Okay, I refuse to be outdone!"

The group descended from the Great Wall, found a restaurant to eat, then went shopping, and finally found a trendy tea shop to enjoy desserts and play games.

They sang karaoke in the evening, their schedule packed, happy and fulfilled.

During karaoke, without Lu Jiaye, who loved to grab the microphone, and Su Han, who was a good singer, the atmosphere was noticeably quieter.

Xiang Li sighed. "It's not as fun without them."

Gu Siyi nodded in agreement.

Zheng Peipei raised her glass, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "One is my boyfriend, the other is my buddy. What can I do? I can only adapt."

With both of them absent, Zhou Xiao was the silent, straight man, and Xia Zhijun only had eyes for Gu Siyi. Zheng Peipei realized how much company and joy Lu Jiaye brought. They usually bickered and teased each other, but at crucial moments, he always prioritized and took care of her. With him around, there was never a dull moment, never a lack of companionship.

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together.

Xia Zhijun said, "It's hard to walk together all the way unless someone is making an effort, putting in the work. Otherwise, life will always reach a fork in the road."

Zheng Peipei smiled. "Yeah, aren't you and Yi Ge just like that? You put all your effort into tutoring him, and he worked hard to keep up with you." They were originally a top student and a struggling student, but now they attend the same university, cherishing every moment they spend together.

Zhang Xinyi smiled. "Lu Jiaye will definitely come back in the future. He's just studying abroad. He can't be snatched away by a foreign girl, right? I don't believe foreign girls have that much charm."

Xiang Li lowered her head, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and chuckled softly. "I hope he still remembers the friends waiting for him back home."

Late at night, everyone returned to the hotel to rest.

After entering the room, Gu Siyi said, "I noticed Xinyi seems to be quite close to Zhou Xiao?"

Zheng Peipei collapsed on the sofa and laughed. "I heard from Lizi that she's pursuing Zhou Xiao."

"Wow…"

"Zhou Xiao is clueless about romance. She's probably going to have a hard time."

Gu Siyi thought of Zhou Xiao's serious and unsmiling demeanor. He really was… distant.

"You're the happiest in the world. You don't have to do anything, and the top student is completely devoted to you."

"…"

"Being favored gives you a sense of security. It's the greatest happiness. You should cherish it!"

Gu Siyi felt a little embarrassed, but also an indescribable happiness, and she couldn't help but smile.

After showering, the two lay in bed. Exhausted from the day's activities, they soon felt sleepy.

As Gu Siyi drifted off, her phone under the pillow rang. She picked it up and saw it was Xia Zhijun calling.

She answered, bringing it to her ear, murmuring softly, "Hello?"

"I'm outside your door."

"Ah? What's wrong?"

"Come get something."

"Oh…" Gu Siyi groggily got up, walked to the door, and opened it. She looked at Xia Zhijun with sleepy eyes and asked, "What do you want to get?"

Xia Zhijun grabbed her hand, pulled her slightly, and she bumped into his arms. He closed the door behind her and, in the next second, lifted her horizontally into his arms.

Gu Siyi was caught off guard by this series of actions and looked at him in a daze. "What are you doing?"

Xia Zhijun looked into her eyes. "I'm here to pick up my boyfriend."

She was wearing thin pajamas, and the exposed skin and the curves inadvertently revealed made his breathing heavy.

Gu Siyi struggled. "Hey, don't mess around. Aren't you sharing a room with Zhou Xiao?"

"I booked another room." He said as he walked.

"But Peipei and I…"

"Wasn't giving you the room last night enough?" Xia Zhijun's voice was husky. "We're going back to school tomorrow. It's only fair that I get one night."

Xia Zhijun carried Gu Siyi to the door of his room, swiped the key card, and carried her inside without hesitation.

He turned and closed the door, and before even reaching the bed, he couldn't wait to kiss her against the door.

Being with a group of friends wasn't the same as being alone together. He had been very well-behaved these past two days, holding back every time he wanted to kiss her…

A passionate kiss ended reluctantly, and Gu Siyi said breathlessly, "Tomorrow when Peipei wakes up… and finds I'm not there… it'll be so awkward…"

Xia Zhijun said, "You're my boyfriend. You should be in the same room with me."

He also knew they hadn't seen each other for over a month, so he had given them last night together.

He carried Gu Siyi to the bed, his broad body covering hers, holding her tightly.

Gu Siyi held her breath slightly, her face burning…

As he once again ventured into familiar territory, she grabbed his hand, trying to resist. He nibbled on her ear and said, "Let me."

"What's so good about it…" she muttered softly.

"Very good." His voice was a husky chuckle. "I like it."

Without any restraints or interruptions, he moved her hand aside, easily finding his target, and sighed contentedly.

Whispering sweet nothings, filled with indescribable excitement and pleasure, he once again captured her sweet, cherry lips…

After a period of intimacy and brief calm, Gu Siyi was nestled in Xia Zhijun's arms, her breathing unsteady.

He kissed her almost every day… every single day…

And a casual peck wasn't enough; it always had to be a long, deep kiss…

Xia Zhijun held her as if he wanted to meld her into his bones.

Gu Siyi felt a certain change becoming increasingly apparent…

Just last night, Zheng Peipei had talked to her about this topic, tirelessly educating her about a boy's needs…

Gu Siyi didn't have a clear idea about that yet, but she could sense Xia Zhijun's urgency and restraint. If he wanted to, it wasn't impossible. After all, it would happen sooner or later…

Everyone's sighs today had touched her heart. She suddenly wanted to do something to bring them closer.

On a whim, Gu Siyi softly said, "If you want… we can try…"
