Chapter 100 So it was you?!
Chapter 100 So it was you?!
When Yufei returned from tutoring, she saw Cui Yu'an staring at her like a resentful woman.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Yufei asked softly, looking at Cui Yu'an who seemed wronged.
"Xiaoyufei doesn't pay any attention to me. I haven't been around after dinner these past few days, and she hasn't even asked where I've been," Cui Yu'an said, sounding aggrieved.
Yufei was speechless for a moment. She wasn't his mother, so why was she constantly telling him where he went and what he did? But she definitely couldn't tell Cui Yu'an this, otherwise she'd have a headache during evening self-study.
"Where did you go? I've been looking for you after dinner these past few days," Yufei said.
Cui Yu'an's eyes, which had been somewhat dim, instantly lit up upon hearing Yufei's words.
Whether Yufei actually contacted him or not, it's enough that she said it, indicating she thought of him.
He then began to share with her what had happened in the past few days.
"You mean you've been learning basketball these past few days?" Yufei looked at Cui Yu'an strangely.
"Okay! I've also found a mentor who'll teach me the three-step layup tomorrow. Do you want to come and watch?" Cui Yu'an looked at her expectantly.
"I think I'd better not go," Yufei instinctively declined Cui Yu'an's invitation.
Cui Yu'an's once sparkling eyes dimmed again, and she drooped her head like an abandoned puppy.
Anyone who saw this would feel sorry for her. Yufei also realized that her words had hurt Cui Yu'an, but she wasn't prepared or had the courage to face that person yet. She was thinking about how to comfort Cui Yu'an when...
Cui Yu'an spoke up, "I saw those people playing basketball, and they were all being given water and towels. I thought they must be very happy. I wanted to experience that too. If it's inconvenient for Sister Yufei, that's okay too. I can bring my own water and towel."
Cui Yu'an sounded so pitiful that Yufei felt guilty if she refused again.
Well, I'll have to face him eventually; it's just a matter of time.
"Alright, alright! As your friend, I'll bring you water tomorrow," Yufei finally relented. It's just a matter of facing that person, isn't it?
Yufei firmly believes that time will heal all wounds. Although time is tight due to Cui Yu'an's influence, Yufei plans to do some preparatory work tonight and spend tomorrow doing some mental preparation. She believes she will be fine.
Upon hearing that Yufei had agreed, Cui Yu'an instantly perked up, beaming with joy and declaring that Yufei was the best to him.
Yufei felt like Cui Yu'an was about to turn into a puppy and rub against her, so she quickly said, "Alright, alright! Class is starting. Even though it's evening self-study, focus on your homework and practice problems."
After saying that, he ignored Cui Yu'an. Cui Yu'an wasn't annoyed and cheerfully lay on the table, tugging at Yufei's clothes absentmindedly.
He finished the homework assigned by the teachers very quickly as soon as get out of class ended.
Sometimes when bored, Cui Yu'an would preview the upcoming material, and he spent his evening self-study sessions in a good mood.
Time flew by, passing quickly amidst Cui Yu'an's anticipation and Yu Fei's anxiety.
After dinner, Yufei mentally prepared herself for the day, thinking that she might not even run into Song Bohuai today, so there was no need to be nervous. Just as she was convincing herself, she heard a familiar voice.
"Brother Cui, this way," Song Bohuai said with a smile, waving to Cui Yu'an and gesturing for him to come over.
Yang Yaxin had already taken her seat in the audience near Song Bohuai, waiting for Cui Yu'an's arrival.
Yufei stiffened slightly upon seeing the two of them, then slowly relaxed.
He gave a polite smile and followed Cui Yu'an to Song Bohuai.
"Brother Cui, who is this?" Yang Yaxin looked at the girl Cui Yu'an brought, her eyes darkening slightly before she asked enthusiastically.
Cui Yu'an didn't answer Yang Yaxin's question, seemingly ignoring her presence, and busied himself with taking care of Yufei.
Choose a comfortable and best viewing spot for Yufei and let her sit down.
Seeing Cui Yu'an bustling around, Yu Fei, who was initially a little stiff, reluctantly took the initiative to introduce herself to the two people following Cui Yu'an.
"Hello! Liu Yufei, Cui Yu'an's friend and sister." Yufei, suppressing her heart still pounding for Song Bohuai, generously extended her hand to shake hands with them.
"Hello! I'm Song Bohuai from Class 7, Grade 11. It's nice to meet you."
Song Bohuai gently squeezed Yufei's hand.
"Hello, Yang Yaxin from Class 7, Grade 11, it's nice to meet you. Sister Yufei, so you're Brother Cui's sister!" Yang Yaxin happily shook hands with Yufei.
"I don't think I'm older than you, just call me Yufei." Yufei looked at the girl who made her feel inferior in her past life, thinking that she seemed to be older than her, so calling her "sister" wouldn't be appropriate.
He spoke directly to Yang Yaxin, whose slightly embarrassed smile froze for a moment before she smiled brightly and said, "Okay, Yufei~ You can come to me if you need anything in the future. You're Yu'an's friend, so you're our friend too. Don't be shy!"
Yufei nodded perfunctorily. Although she found Song Bohuai's future wife a bit strange, her mind wasn't on it.
Instead, she was marveling at how she had longed for the scene of introducing herself to Song Bohuai with dignity in her past life, a scene she hadn't been able to achieve in her previous life, but in this life, thanks to Cui Yu'an, she had accomplished it so easily.
"So it was him!" Cui Yu'an realized from the series of reactions after Yufei and Song Bohuai met that this was the person he was looking for.
Judging from their reactions, they didn't seem to know each other before! Does that mean his little girl fell in love with that guy at first sight?! Or is it just unrequited love?!
Why?! How is he any worse than him? Cui Yu'an pursed his lips and silently practiced the three-step layup with Song Bohuai, occasionally glancing at Song Bohuai with a sharp look.
Trying to find something this kid does better than him, he's definitely not as handsome! His grades probably aren't as good either, since he's first in the grade, but he's definitely better at basketball.
Could it be that the little girl likes boys who are good at basketball? Thinking this, Cui Yu'an withdrew his sharp gaze and then seriously focused his attention on the basketball.
Song Bohuai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, this man's eyes are really sharp, and his presence is so intimidating! He was sweating profusely just looking at him. What had he done to offend him today?!
Looking at him like that, Song Bohuai was completely baffled and couldn't figure out what Cui Yu'an was looking at.
Fortunately, his attention was on the ball; otherwise, if he had been too intimidated by Cui Yu'an's gaze to move, he would have made a complete fool of himself in front of his sister Ya Xin.
But is Cui Yu'an acting strangely today? Not only did he learn the three-step layup, but it seems like he's trying to squeeze every last drop of his basketball skills out of him; he's learning way too fast!
Because of the girl he brought today? She was indeed quite pretty.
