If You Are a Dodder Flower

Part 65

Wei Qi sat inside his taxi, still reveling in the smile on Xia Rou's face earlier.

He had actually noticed it already: Xia Rou's intention to avoid him.

He thought that the reason might be Zou Yue. She probably misunderstood their relationship.

That was why when they had gathered just then, he prevented the boy sitting beside him from changing seats. He didn't want to leave any room for misunderstanding.

The relationship between him and Zou Yue was simply that of a senior and junior in their high school drama club. When he went to study abroad, he had nearly fallen out of contact with her. Only occasionally would they chat through messenger.

When he returned, he was actually a little surprised to see Zou Yue reach out.

But he just really liked to act in dramas. When he was outside the country, he had also participated in drama then. But once he left school and entered the workforce, he really didn't have the opportunity to get involved any longer.

And so he accepted Zou Yue's invitation. Translated by The Novelst

Soon he even received the chance to become an outside source for their club and even nabbed a role. Out of them all, he was actually the happiest to be able to participate.

But that was the extent of his relationship with Zou Yue. Other than matters related to the drama club, there was no further contact between them.

This time he had wanted to decline when she reached out because he was too busy at work and no longer a student.

But since Zou Yue had insisted he needed to act, he had come once again.

He was glad to have accepted. He was able to meet Xia Rou.

Xia Rou was exactly the girl he had dreamed of. It was the first time he'd experienced this love at first sight.

While he was thinking, his phone chimed. He took out his phone and saw a message.

【I'm Xia Rou, this is my number.】

A huge smile bloomed on Wei Qi's face.

Xia Rou had promised Cao Yang before: if she was going to date someone, she would report it to him.

But for Wei Qi, she wanted to delay it a little and tell Cao Yang later. She was mainly afraid that if she told him, Cao YAng would want to meet Wei Qi immediately.

In the past, she had forced Wei Qi to back off by using the Cao Family as a tool.

In this life, she didn't want the Cao Family to hinder them.

So she wanted to wait until her relationship with Wei Qi was stable before telling him about her family.

She wasn't really worried about Cao Yang, since in the past Cao Yang had advised her to pick Wei Qi when considering between Liang Ziheng and Wei Qi.

Xia Rou thought that in this life, Cao Yang would also naturally accept Wei Qi.

But she had missed the point: there were too many variables that had changed in her current life.

Wei Qi was exactly the same as he was in the past, still passionate and proactive.

When the New Year holiday ended, Xia Rou met up with Wei Qi again as school and work started back up.

He came to the school after his workday. There was some distance between his workplace and Sheng Da University, so by the time he arrived, the sky was already dark.

But he stood outside the dorm building, seeming to have a great talk with the dorm aunt through the sliding window. Even as Xia Rou walked down the stairs, she could hear the laughter coming from the auntie.
