Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

At the instant that voice rang out, a smile uncontrollably appeared on Xie Xiao's face.

Someone let out an "oh ho" of cheers and jeers.

The instructor seemed to freeze for a moment before turning around.

Behind him stood a girl in a military training camouflage uniform, who was indeed very delicate-looking. The days of military training hadn't seemed to darken her skin at all; her makeup-free face and the arms protruding from her sleeves were still blindingly white under the lights.

Luo Yanran responded to the instructor with her mouth, but her gaze stayed on Xie Xiao.

Her eyes curved into a smile.

Amidst the noise, someone from an unknown class shouted, "Xie Xiao, is this your girlfriend?"

"Yes!" Xie Xiao answered loudly,

The teasing voices grew louder.

Even He Xiuxiu, who had been stunned for a moment, started clapping.

It was always like this; people are normally attracted to those who are pleasing to their own aesthetic.

It's just that this kind of attraction hadn't reached the level where they would be jealous upon knowing he had a girlfriend.

Instead, they felt that the couple standing together would certainly be a feast for the eyes, well-matched.

Already, quite a few people had taken out their phones to record videos and take pictures.

Their instructor, surnamed Huang, asked with a gossip-hungry face, "Which class are you from? Why aren't you at the assembly? I haven't seen you come to find Xie Xiao before?"

Glancing at Xie Xiao, who still stood ramrod straight, he said, "Come on, how can you just stand there motionless when such a good-looking girlfriend has arrived?"

Another instructor teased, "If you don't move, these boys over here are still planning to ask for her number, you know?"

Xie Xiao finally burst into laughter, "Reporting to the instructor, I would like to ask for a leave! It's embarrassing making out with so many people watching!"

He made his request with completely justified boldness, causing an even greater uproar.

Qi Yan bellowed, "Xie Xiao, you beast! Is this a mass slaughter of singles?"

Xie Xiao didn't care about the noisy crowd as he walked over to Luo Yanran and took her hand.

Only when close did one realize her face was a bit red, her hand tightly gripping Xie Xiao's. She was nervous.

Indeed, proclaiming her territory in front of so many people was not typically something Luo Yanran would do.

Xie Xiao heard Instructor Huang say with a laugh, "Once this female student has finished answering, I'll let you go. I'm an easygoing person."

From behind, a group of boys howled, "Don't let them go! Make them sit down for us to watch!"

"Exactly! We're all doing military training; how come he gets to have a girlfriend?"

"It's too much! How could this happen so quickly?"

In the midst of the clamor, someone also shouted, "The belle of the law school!"

It turned out someone recognized Luo Yanran.

At the moment, although Luo Yanran was nervous, she still said with a smile, "Reporting to the instructor, I am from the law school. I am here, of course, because I asked for leave to come see my boyfriend. We haven't seen each other for three days, even though we're at the same school. One day apart feels as long as three autumns."

"Ah! Heartbreaker!"

"Her name is Luo Yanran!"

"Yes, my name is Luo Yanran." With that, all questions were answered.

Instructor Huang, seeing the increasingly excited crowd, and even classes further away glancing over, waved at Xie Xiao with a smile, "Remember to submit a leave form to your counselor later, go ahead."

Xie Xiao said with a smile, "Thank you, instructor!"

Leading Luo Yanran, he prepared to leave, his ears nearly done for from the noise.

From behind came Qi Yan's voice, "Don't you want your water bottle?"

"He wants his wife; who cares about a water bottle?"

"Damn!"

Xie Xiao didn't look back but waved his hand, then ran off with Luo Yanran.

The two of them jogged until they were out of the sports field, and the cheering behind them slowly diminished.

Then they kept running and left the military training grounds for a small park.

Xie Xiao knew this place; it had a lake and was a famous dating spot.

He held Luo Yanran's hand as they entered, and when they passed a large tree, he pulled her into its shade and wrapped his arms around her.

In fact, having run a bit in such hot weather, both of them were sweaty.

Pressed together, they could even feel each other's rapid heartbeats.

After catching his breath, Xie Xiao looked down at the person in his embrace, his voice carrying a teasing tone, "Why did you come?"

Luo Yanran was much more nervous than he was; she hadn't planned to make such a spectacle.

She thought she would just wait on the side until everyone was dismissed and then walk a while with Xie Xiao.

For this, she had even asked for leave specially that night.

Well, the reasons for a girl to feel unwell are numerous.

But she hadn't expected that the moment she arrived, she would hear a girl's clear, laughing voice calling out for Xie Xiao.

Then Xie Xiao was called out of the lineup.

At that moment, Luo Yanran wondered, how could Xie Xiao attract girls so easily in such a short time?

By the time she came to her senses, all eyes were on her.

Her heart was racing then, and even her palms were sweating.

However, seeing Xie Xiao's surprised and smiling eyes, she suddenly felt less nervous.

But still, she couldn't help but mutter softly, "My heart is beating so fast, I'm so nervous. I missed you so much, but I didn't want to be so conspicuous."

Xie Xiao gently touched the area over her heart, "It's okay, mine's fast too, I was just so thrilled to see you."

Xie Xiao gazed at her face, which was either flushed from the recent shock or the run, and sighed softly, "How can you be so adorable?"

Luo Yanran looked up at him and her lips met his in a kiss.

After so many days apart, the way they reunited was still so public.

Xie Xiao's emotions hadn't fully settled yet; he was still excited.

So it felt only natural to pin her against the tree and kiss her intensely.

In the distance, there were occasional whispers.

But they were in their own intimate world, hugging and kissing.

The summer wind carried a heat wave with it.

Their sweat hadn't dried, and was even a bit sticky, but they showed no intention of parting.

After a while, Xie Xiao finally released her from his arms, his voice resigned, "You're always one step ahead of me. I was planning to ask for leave tomorrow night to see you; I missed you too."

A genuine smile on her face, Luo Yanran replied, "I know, and I missed you too. Didn't you say your roommate was bullying you at noon? That's why I came."

She reached up to wipe the sweat from Xie Xiao's forehead, "But I didn't have time to buy the iced watermelon and milk tea; it was too far."

Her voice sincere, Luo Yanran said, "I wanted more time to see you; we can treat your roommates to a meal later."

"That should be my job," Xie Xiao sighed, almost as if whining playfully, "Why does our Miss Luo always snatch my tasks?"

But in reality, his heart was filled with her.

She really was too endearing for Xie Xiao not to like.

How could there be such an adorable girl?

Because of a single message from him at noon, she had shown up in front of him without hesitation that evening.

Xie Xiao thought back to the scene when she had loudly stated, "Drill sergeant, he has a girlfriend."

His heart was still racing.

He sighed in feigned resignation, "Forget it, Miss Luo, I don't want to make the effort anymore; just marry me, will you?"
