After Lin Dongyang returned to the dormitory, his three roommates looked at him in unison. This kind of gaze had simply become the norm. Since they found out about the relationship between Lin Dongyang and Qiao Yichen, Lin Donyang had become a giant panda in the dormitory room, and so he was valued as a rarity.
Li Wei stroked his chin and said with a deeper meaning, “I say, you went so far this afternoon to buy a cake and then left without eating it. Turns out it was a gift for someone else ah.”
The way Lin Dongyang rushed downstairs, in their eyes, was like a puppy running to a bone after smelling its aroma. Why did they say puppy? Because his excited running around didn’t look very smart.
“Having a partner is very different. Look, the room is full of the sour smell of love, aiyo~” Fatty Han wrinkled his nose and pretended to fan the air in front of him, as if he really smelled something.
“You guys are sour.” Lin Dongyang rolled his eyes at them.
“Look, the corners of his mouth are rising up to the sky!” Fatty Han shouted, “You’ve become so lovey-dovey like this just because you didn’t see him for a day. What will you be like on 520?”
When Lin Dongyang heard this, he turned his head and asked, “520? So fast.” He felt like the mid-term exam was only yesterday. He didn’t realise that more than half a month had already passed.
Li Wei: “That’s right. Last year, on 520, we were four single dogs. This year, you’ve been removed from our list.”
Lin Dongyang looked at the calendar and found that the 20th was unfortunately on Wednesday. Not the day before or the day after. It was estimated that there should be a lot of young couples who had no time to rest.
“Wednesday ah!” Lin Dongyang lamented.
Fatty Han: “What? If it was your rest day, would you live outside and not come back?”
“No, I don’t have time to prepare a gift,” Lin Dongyang had been counting the days by what day of the week it was, after Monday he only thought about Saturday. He never looked at the date. If it wasn’t for Fatty Han mentioning 520, he probably would’ve forgotten all about it, thus missing their first Valentine’s Day.
“What gift are you going to give?” Li Wei asked.
Lin Dongyang wore a troubled look. “I can’t think of anything right now,” Giving gifts was a time-consuming thing. Since he wanted to give a gift, he couldn’t just buy something casually and send it over, that was so half-hearted.

“That seems to make sense.” Li Wei and Zhu Wenbo both went along with him. In any case, they didn’t have girlfriends and had little experience in giving gifts, so they could only come up with the most popular and common gifts like these.
Seeing their three votes, Lin Dongyang, who didn’t know what to give, also began to consider the feasibility of it. Although it might be a little embarrassing to give a couple’s gift (after all, it had to be worn together), Lin Dongyang was very sure that Qiao Yichen would like it, so he made up his mind. He didn’t know where his confidence came from, but maybe it was an example of ‘loving the house and its crow,’ liking him along with anything he gives.
Judging by the fact that Qiao Yichen’s shoes, which he stepped on when they first met, were limited-edition and cost more than 48,000 yuan, Qiao Yichen’s clothes must be generally expensive, but Lin Dongyang planned to do what he could. He couldn’t slap his face until it was swollen in an effort to look imposing He had always said that what’s important is that it comes from the heart, but in fact, that was just so he didn’t have to admit to being poor.
After the matter was settled, Lin Dongyang took the envelope out of his pocket and touched it, then opened his closet and took out the custom-made woman’s dress that Qiao Yichen had given him at the very beginning. The high-end gift box was well protected in the wardrobe, not a speck of dust had fallen on it. When he opened the box and saw the exquisite dress, Lin Dongyang’s state of mind was different from before. There was a sense of nostalgia. This dress was also considered a witness to the whole process.
When his roommates saw him taking out the dress he had been disgusted with before, they immediately surrounded him like a dog’s nose that smelled an unusual smell. Lin Dongyang calmly did whatever he wanted to. He put the envelope on top of the dress, and the white tulle held up the love words, while he, the beautiful person, couldn’t stop the corners of his mouth from curving.
Fatty Han asked with straightforward and curious eyes, “What is this?”
Li Wei’s eyes lit up and he concluded. “A love letter!”
Fatty Han: “F*ck! I’ve finally seen what a love letter looks like in my lifetime.”
“I’m sour——” The three of them said in unison.
In class on Monday, Lin Dongyang wasn’t in the mood to listen to the lecture at all, no matter what important things the teacher was talking about on the podium, he laid still on his desk and didn’t look up. He had kept writing and drawing, and he didn’t know what to fiddle with next. The teacher looked at him a few times and saw that he wasn’t talking or sleeping, so he simply turned a blind eye and ignored him.
Lin Dongyang, who had almost gotten called on by the teacher, was still admiring his masterpiece endlessly. On that A4 piece of white paper, he had drawn a lovely little milk dog. Although there were only a few strokes, the drawing was vivid. Lin Dongyang tilted his head and felt that there was something missing. Finally, he wrote the words ‘Qiao Yichen’ on the little milk dog and then he was satisfied and put down his pen.
This was just like the Qiao Yichen he had imagined in the beginning. He would be spoiled and soft, just like a little milk dog.
Sitting next to him, Li Wei saw him smiling and admiring it after drawing for a long time, and couldn’t help but lean over to ask in a whisper, “What are you doing drawing a dog?”
Lin Dongyang: “…” He felt that he had probably derailed from their straight group, the drawing was obviously very cute ah.
Li Wei stretched out his hand so he could take a closer look, yet as a result the back of his hand was mercilessly hit by Lin Dongyang. Li Wei rubbed his hurt hand and pursed his lips. His round head stared at Lin Dongyang very stubbornly, as if he had been humiliated and wronged.
Lin Dongyang didn’t look at him. He slid the piece of paper under his textbook, and then sat up straight and pretended to be listening to the lecture.
After class, Lin Dongyang didn’t see Qiao Yichen’s figure at his classroom door. When he came back last night, Qiao Yichen said he would wait for him at the door after class, so he guessed that their class hadn’t finished yet. After all, dragging out a lesson was a common problem shared by teachers.
“You guys can go back first, I’m going to wait for someone.” Lin Dongyang said this to his roommates. Qiao Yichen said that he would wait for him, if he left first, Qiao Yichen wouldn’t be able to find him when he came.
“Men never stay. Yang-zi has already run away with someone else. He won’t even go back with us after school this time.” Fatty Han pretended to be heartbroken and even put on a stammering role-play. Two tears were also eager to drip from his small eyes in order to express his sincerity.
“Go away, go away, don’t pretend.” Li Wei and Zhu Wenbo were more sensible. The two of them combined their efforts to push Fatty Han, who was completely ignorant, from behind, and left step by step.
Lin Dongyang saw them walking away and took out his mobile phone to ask Qiao Yichen what floor his class was on. Despite being in class Qiao Yichen actually responded to him quickly and Lin Dongyang ran all the way according to the location he sent, afraid that he would be late if he slowed down for even one step.
By the time he was panting and leaning by the window of the classroom, the teacher was still lecturing rigorously. The female student sitting next to the window was so frightened by his sudden appearance, that she patted her chest and gasped for breath, looking terrified.
Lin Dongyang was ashamed and apologized. “I’m sorry for scaring you ah.”
The windows were open so the female student sitting by the window heard his apology and smiled, saying it didn’t matter.
It was the first time Lin Dongyang had seen Qiao Yichen’s class atmosphere and he found that it was really different from their class. Although there were very few people who chatted in their art class, there were many students who did small actions, like sleeping and playing with their phones. Lin Dongyang thought that this was the norm in college, because there were always a few naughty and disobedient students in each class, known as ‘bad children in the teachers’ eyes.’
But today, when he saw Qiao Yichen’s class in person, he found that their class didn’t have any naughty and mischievous students who loved to stir up trouble. Just like a carefully selected class of top students, the whole class was full of good students who listened carefully to the teacher.
It was really a big difference ah!
Lin Dongyang found the figure he was looking for at a glance, there was no way that he couldn’t. Qiao Yichen was outstanding in both height and appearance. At this moment, Qiao Yichen was seriously looking at the blackboard, obviously his small disturbance by the window hadn’t attracted his attention.
Lin Dongyang leaned against the window, smiling and looking at Qiao Yichen, not caring if there was any dust on the window. Lin Dongyang just waited for when Qiao Yichen would notice his arrival. The female student by the window saw that Lin Dongyang, who had surprised her, wasn’t leaving. She kept turning her head to look at him frequently, and finally couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Can I help you?”
“Oh, I’m waiting for someone.” Lin Dongyang whispered back.
“Who are you waiting for ah? I’ll help you pass on the message.”
Lin Dongyang took out the drawing from his textbook, then folded it into a paper plane and gestured towards Qiao Yichen. When the teacher on the podium turned around to write on the blackboard, Lin Dongyang threw the paper plane that he had been aiming for a long time.
The paper plane spun in a circle following the airflow, and then impartially hit Qiao Yichen’s head.
Lin Dongyang: “I’m looking for him.”
The whole class was caught off guard by this sudden scene. As the paper plane hit Qiao Yichen’s face, the female student was shocked, “Class monitor?!”
Qiao Yichen’s head was hit by something not painful and not itchy, and then he saw the paper plane that had fallen onto his desk. He first looked at his classmates with a stern gaze, wondering who wasn’t listening properly in class and instead was doing such meaningless small actions!
But when he looked out the window at his Lin Dongyang, who was smiling at him, his sharp gaze softened for just a moment. When Lin Dongyang saw that he had finally noticed him, he hurriedly raised his hand in greeting, then pointed to the paper plane on his desk, gesturing for him to pick it up and take a look.
Qiao Yichen unfolded the paper and saw a drawing of a little milk dog. Most importantly, his name was written on the little milk dog.
Qiao Yichen smiled dotingly and looked at Lin Dongyang, silently mouthing, “Wait for me.”
Lin Dongyang nodded and leaned back on the window again, but then he heard someone say, “Holy sh*t, class monitor actually smiles so flawlessly! I’m dead!”
The previously disciplined classroom was instantly disrupted as a suppressed snicker spread throughout the classroom. The teacher tapped the board with the blackboard eraser and scolded, “What are you laughing at? No more noise or you won’t be dismissed from class!”
The laughter stopped abruptly, as if it had never happened. Lin Dongyang was secretly amazed: with such a teacher and such a class monitor supervising them, it would be hard to make trouble ah.
He had been waiting for about five minutes. During these five minutes, Lin Dongyang had been talking to the female student sitting by the window, chatting happily. Qiao Yichen looked at them once and frowned a little, his calm mind became more and more restless, and he couldn’t listen to the teacher at all.
