Even after so many years, with almost no interaction between them, he still doesnât like him, really doesnât like him.
Before, he would restrain himself from showing it, but now he seems to have no scruples, not hiding it at all.
Duan Xi looked at him with cold eyes, and his gaze at Duan Xi was equally unyielding.
Both of them looked at each other with mutual disdain, while the girls surrounding them secretly observed, some even covering their mouths in excitement and starting to shriek.
Jiang Xun, who had caused quite a stir on his way behind, didnât bother Ruan Jiaojiao at all. But now with all eyes on Duan Xi, she inexplicably felt uncomfortable.
She tugged at their interlocked hands, and as Duan Xi looked over, she immediately said, "Brother Xi, letâs go, there are too many people here."
Duan Xi nodded and led her out.
Jiang Xun watched the two of them walk further and further away, their hands never releasing, his face looking incredibly unsightly.
"I was also surprised to see him in class just now," Ruan Jiaojiao said softly on the way to the cafeteria with Duan Xi.
She knew about Jiang Xun skipping grades because Yu Rou had mentioned it before. When Jiang Xun first returned to the Jiang Family, Yu Rou had many expectations for her cousin, saying he was good-looking, had great grades, and skipped several grades in a row. But after Zhou Yun came along, her expectations turned into complaints.
Ruan Jiaojiao just didnât expect that Jiang Xun would also get into Qing University, choosing a foreign language major that most guys wouldnât choose, and that heâd even be in her class!
"Brother Xi?" After complaining for a while and not hearing Duan Xiâs response, she looked over in confusion and found his expression quite unpleasant. She stopped and shook their interlocked hands, "Brother Xi, whatâs wrong?"
"I want to change majors, change classes!" Duan Xi said.
"..." Ruan Jiaojiao.
"Because of Jiang Xun?" Ruan Jiaojiao guessed, unable to understand.
Duan Xi nodded with some annoyance. Like Ruan Jiaojiao, he never expected Jiang Xun would be in her class. Ever since heâd come into this world, he could sense that that guy... had a possessive interest in Ruan Jiaojiao and harbored hostility towards him, even if he concealed it well in front of others.
So, he genuinely felt threatened by Jiang Xunâitâs a manâs instinct.
He thought after the Shu Wen and Jiang Bin incident, they would never have any interaction again. Who wouldâve known he would haunt them like a shadow and end up in the same class as Ruan Jiaojiao.
"Brother Xi, changing majors and classes is too much trouble, letâs not do it." Ruan Jiaojiao advised.
Duan Xi maintained a stern face, staring at her.
Ruan Jiaojiao had known since childhood that he disliked Jiang Xun. She remembered when she returned a gift to Jiang Xun as a child, and Duan Xi was angry for quite some time.
Seeing him unmoved now, Ruan Jiaojiao continued to persuade, "Brother Xi, changing classes because of him isnât worth it. He has nothing to do with us, why do something unfavorable to yourself because of an outsider."
Outsider.
Hearing these words, Duan Xiâs expression softened a bit.
But he didnât compromise, adding more terms, "In the future, youâre not allowed to talk to him, canât sit together in class, or walk together."
Ruan Jiaojiao hadnât planned on getting involved with Jiang Xun anyway, and she nodded without hesitation, "Okay, okay, whatever you say. Letâs go get the lunchboxes from the dorm and head to the cafeteria, we need to gather later."
