NOVEL NEXT Chapter 29
Chapter 29: A Smile that Captivates the City:
The moment the three words “I’m sorry” were uttered, a wave of cheers erupted around them.
Although this matter had nothing to do with the onlookers, people are naturally curious, and they instinctively side with those who seem justified.
Having understood the whole story, they instinctively opposed the actions of the crew-cut guy and his group. They had initially thought that Qin Luo would end up losing and leaving the court, while the crew-cut guy and his friends would strut away. But they didn’t expect such an unexpected outcome.
Qin Luo, with his own strength, shattered the basketball skills the crew-cut guy was so proud of, without even needing to score 50 points, making the crew-cut guy admit defeat.
The spectators were thoroughly enjoying the spectacle, feeling a sense of satisfaction far greater than watching the romantic entanglements between Qin Luo and the campus belle.
Qin Luo’s three roommates clenched their fists, feeling a sense of justice and exhilaration. They excitedly ran over to Qin Luo, and bombarded him with questions.
“Brother Qin, when did you become so awesome?”
“Brother Qin, So cool! Teach me how to dunk sometime!”
“Bro, no kidding, if I were a girl, I’d be wet right now.”
Their playful chat made Qin Luo, who had been so cold, break into a gentle smile.
Hao Meng and Shi Yulu were so excited that their faces were flushed, jumping up and down. If they weren’t holding onto Jia Ting, they would’ve rushed over to shower Qin Luo with flowers.
On the court, the crew-cut guy felt utterly humiliated, and Wang Chuan beside him also looked upset. They both planned to leave silently.
At this moment, another person walked onto the court.
It was Ji Yan. She walked toward Qin Luo without saying a word. Her expression was as cold as ever, but her steps were quick.
Han Yiqun and others could tell she was heading for Qin Luo, so they stepped aside, curious about what the campus belle would say to Qin Luo.
Would she look at him with admiration like other girls?
Or, more dramatically, would she start gushing over him?
Considering her high status, that seemed unrealistic. But given the current atmosphere, who knew?
And looking at her quick steps, was she going to hug him directly?
Everyone’s eyes were on Ji Yan, curious about what she would do.
Qin Luo thought the same and believed that even if Ji Yan was very excited, she wouldn’t do anything impulsively.
She definitely wouldn’t scream like other girls. At most, she would come over and say thank you…
As Qin Luo was thinking this, he felt a delicate body bump into him.
Instinctively, he reached out his hand and held Ji Yan by the waist.
Before he could react to what was happening, his vision was filled with her beautiful, cold face.

The touch of their lips left Qin Luo stunned, his eyes wide open.
He didn’t even pay attention to the system notifications because the woman right in front of him occupied all his sight.
Never before had the woman he pursued for over three months been this close to him.
Under her delicate eyebrows, her eyes were tightly shut. Her long eyelashes, showing her nervousness, trembled continuously.
Qin Luo could feel the cool touch of her lips, and a faint fragrance entered his nostrils, leaving him momentarily bewildered.
Ever since Ji Yan had gone to the boys’ dormitory to find him, her cold personality had started to crack.
But this change was still within what Qin Luo could understand.
Delivering milk tea, cola, or water were all minor gestures, insignificant really.
Just because of Ji Yan’s cold personality, even these small acts seemed like significant gestures.
Honestly, Qin Luo never took these minor gestures to heart.
Despite Ji Yan never doing these things for others, he didn’t change his thoughts because of these slight changes.
But now, this situation truly caught him off guard.
Even if influenced by the atmosphere, or driven by heightened emotions, rushing over for a hug was already astonishing.
But now, she not only hugged Qin Luo but also stood on tiptoe to kiss him.
This really caught Qin Luo off guard, and it wasn’t just him; everyone around was equally shocked by the scene.
It was like a thunderbolt exploding in their minds, leaving them dumbfounded, their mouths agape.
The woman who rejected all suitors outright;
The woman who looked down on all admirers;
The woman who was cold to strangers;
The woman was like a high and aloof flower… she actually took the initiative to kiss someone?!
If Qin Luo’s dunk earlier was a visual shock, the current scene was a mental blow.
Even though they were witnessing it with their own eyes, it was hard to believe. Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
Ji Yan’s cold image was deeply rooted in the school.
Many hadn’t seen her in person, but her reputation made everyone aware of her cold demeanor.
Her visiting the boys’ dormitory days ago was shocking enough.
Then she started delivering milk tea and cola, which was enough to make the guys’ teeth ache from envy and shock.
Even so, the campus belle remained high and cold in their eyes, though with a touch more humanity, understanding what it meant to take initiative.
But there should be limits to taking initiative! It should progress gradually!
At least today deliver a drink, tomorrow hold hands, the day after watch a movie, right?
This straight to hugging and kissing was too much!
Seeing their goddess throwing herself at a guy, the boys who had just been cheering “Qin Luo is awesome” were now gnashing their teeth, inwardly cursing: “Damn it, let go of my goddess!”
The girls were muttering curses at Ji Yan, their faces full of resentment, shouting to let them have the guy.
It wasn’t until Ji Yan suddenly let go of Qin Luo’s neck and fled that people gradually returned to their senses. They felt like they had just watched a big youth movie, thoroughly satisfied.
After a while, their lips parted.
Qin Luo felt her slender arms slowly release his neck.
He dazedly met Ji Yan’s gaze and saw her smile for the first time.
At the moment, her smile was captivating.
