Chapter Twenty: Are You?

  The library of North University of China is a landmark building of the university. The design of Twin Towers, the entire library behind the east and west two buildings, as high as fifteen layers. The top layer also has a cafe, overlooking the scenery of Nanhu Lake. So many times here is also the holy land of dating for boys and girls of North University of China.

  Yang Tao should be very lucky, he didn't lose the library card that he hadn't used since he got it, so he smoothly pulled Chen Chufan with him into this completely unfamiliar reading room of the library.

  As soon as they entered the reading room, Yang Tao started looking around in all directions, as if he was the main character of someone else's date. Meanwhile, Chen Chufan stood beside him with a helpless expression on his face.

  "I said the appointment was at two, and it's only one thirty now! What's the hurry?" Chen Chufan complained. It wasn't that Chen Chufan was being unreasonable, but he had always been in the habit of taking a nap after lunch, planning to sleep for half an hour before heading out. But then Yang Tao, who seemed as excited as if he'd been injected with chicken blood, dragged him over ahead of time.

  "You know what! I'm telling you, when dating a girl, no matter who proposed it, you must arrive earlier. You'd rather wait for her for half an hour than let her wait for you for one minute, got it?" Yang Tao put on a patient and kind expression, his eyes still darting around, but unfortunately, there were two girls in the reading room, but they were both extremely plain-looking. Fortunately, they didn't show any special reaction to the arrival of the two men.

  Chen Chufan was taught a lesson by Yang Tao's words and couldn't help but laugh and cry, "Your emotions have all been trained out of you by your family's Cuan Cuan! Anyway, I don't understand these things as well as you do, okay?! It's still early now, let's go find a place to read some books first!" Chen Chufan suggested.

  Chen Chufan was still not as open as Yang Tao. Although it was still early, many students were already reading in the reading room. The two people entering the reading room did not go to the bookshelf to borrow books, but instead kept looking around and talking nonstop, which had already attracted a lot of attention, making Chen Chufan feel even more uncomfortable, so he directly pulled Yang Tao towards the back of the reading room where there was a large row of bookshelves.

  The reading room of the university still has a lot of books. There are all kinds of books, and there are even many to choose from. Under Chen Chufan's guidance, the two ran to the special area. Then each person casually picked up a book and walked towards the reading position in front of the reading room. Yang Tao took two steps, as if suddenly thinking of something, and randomly pulled out two more books from the bookshelves on both sides.

  "What are you doing with so many books?" Chen Chufan asked in puzzlement.

  "Take the seat next to us! Think about it, what if the girl you're waiting for arrives and all the seats around us are taken? She'll be too embarrassed to come over and meet you!" Yang Tao explained seriously.

  Chen Chufan could only nod in agreement. However, he couldn't help but wonder how someone who was so meticulous in this aspect could be so careless in daily life.

  "Sit here!" Yang Tao had already chosen a spot directly opposite the reading room entrance and sat down, where anyone entering or exiting the reading room couldn't escape their line of sight.

  "It's too showy sitting here! Others will see us two as soon as they come in, how embarrassing!" Chen Chufan was somewhat reluctant to sit in such a conspicuous location.

  "What do you know! Are you still not going to let me handle that matter for you? Today, just listen to me!" Yang Tao ignored Chen Chufan's objections and forcibly pressed him into the seat he had chosen. He also casually tossed the two books in his hand onto the empty seats across from them.

  Yang Tao and Chen Chufan had just sat down for a short while when Han Xiaoxi and Ye Siying arrived at the school library. However, Han Xiaoxi seemed very nervous, only bringing Ye Siying to circle around the reading room like a secret agent, but never entering.

  "What are you doing?! Classmate Han Xiaoxi!" Ye Siying stared at the extremely coquettish Han Xiaoxi, saying with a bad tone.

  "Shh, keep your voice down. I'm a bit nervous! What if he's already here? If we just walk in like this, won't it be a bit awkward?" Han Xiaoxi asked nervously.

  "What I'm saying is, Han Xiaoxi, do you want him to come or don't you?" Ye Siying asked with a mixture of tears and laughter.

  "I did hope he would come, but I feel a bit strange about it!" Han Xiao Xi said with a shake of her head.

  "Let's just go back then!" Originally not wanting to let Han Xiaoxi meet Chen Chufan, Ye Siying pulled Han Xiaoxi towards the stairs.

  "Hey, no! We can't go in yet!" Han Xiaoxi hastily pulled Ye Siying back and dragged her towards the reading room door.

  In the reading room, Chen Chufan was completely immersed in Gu Long's martial arts novel and had completely forgotten that he was there for a date. Meanwhile, Yang Tao's gaze was jumping back and forth between his hand and the door of the reading room at a frequency of once per second. Fortunately, Yang Tao chose a position where he didn't need to move his head to complete this high-difficulty action, otherwise the students next to him would have suspected that he was an epileptic and called 120.

  So when Han Xiaoxi and Ye Siying appeared in the reading room, Yang Tao noticed them immediately. His gaze didn't return to his book, but instead he stared blankly at the two of them. In his heart, he was still wondering if it wasn't one of these two who had made an appointment with Chen Chufan. Subconsciously, he glanced at the large clock in the reading room, and indeed it was almost exactly 2 o'clock.

  It has to be said that Yang Tao's position is indeed very eye-catching. As soon as Han Xiaoxi and Ye Siying entered the reading room, they saw Yang Tao looking at them with Chen Chufan on one side, who was engrossed in a book.

  "Is that idiot who's staring at us the one you're talking about?" Ye Siying furrowed her brow and asked in a low voice, turning to Han Xiaoxi beside her.

  "It's not him, it's the one next to him!" Han Xiaoxi replied in a low voice. Seeing Chen Chufan really appear, Han Xiaoxi unconsciously became even more nervous, and even the hand holding Ye Siying's was sweating. Having seen her target, Han Xiaoxi suddenly had no idea what to do, and asked Ye Siying: "What do we do now?"

  Because Yang Tao's gaze was too eye-catching, Ye Siyue didn't notice Chen Chufan beside him. Moreover, Chen Chufan changed his clothes today and lowered his head to read a book, so Ye Siyue didn't recognize him as the boy who shocked her in the music room at first glance. Hearing Han Xiaoxi's nervous voice, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "You're the one who invited someone else, what can I do? Since you've come all this way, what else can you do? Just go over!"

  As she spoke, Ye Siying walked ahead of Han Xiaoxi, pulling her directly towards the seats where Yang Tao and Chen Chufan were sitting.

  Yang Tao also reacted at this time, he quickly used his left hand to poke Chen Chufan sitting on his left and said in a low voice: "Damn, Old Three you've made it big, the one who invited you is actually the school flower of the music department, and two school flowers are taking action together!"

  The school flower of the music department, a few words that seemed particularly sensitive to Chen Chufan. He was immersed in the ancient dragon, and suddenly woke up. He looked up and saw Ye Siying pulling Han Xiaoxi towards him. He subconsciously quickly lowered his head again, stood up the book on the table, and hid his head behind it. "I'm dizzy, how could it be her?!" Chen Chufan complained, "What to do now?"

  "What's going on?" Yang Tao was baffled by Chen Chufan's reaction. But before he could ask for clarification, the two music department beauties had already walked up to their table.

  "Is anyone here?" Ye Siying asked Yang Tao. The moment Chen Chufan looked up earlier gave Ye Siying a very familiar feeling, but then Chen Chufan immediately buried his head in the book again, which made her even more puzzled? What does this guy mean? It seems like he's afraid of being similar to himself.

  "Nobody, nobody!" Yang Tao replied with a smile all over his face, and while saying that, he naturally put back the book that was occupying the seat.

  "Thanks a lot!" said Ye Siying as she sat down opposite Han Xiaoxi.

  As soon as he sat down, Ye Siyuan suddenly spoke to Chen Chufan: "This classmate is so strange? Is this what you call reading a book?"

  Chen Chufan buried his head behind the book, secretly complaining about what was happening. If he had known that Ye Siying would come today, he wouldn't have run to the reading room and let her catch him in the act! But now it's too late to say anything, he couldn't just walk out of the reading room with a book covering his head, could he? Thinking that he was already unlucky enough, hadn't he sneaked into the music classroom to play around? What's the big deal, he had even beaten the student council president today, so why be afraid of the school flower?

  Thinking of this, Chen Chufan simply put down the book and raised his head, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying to Ye Siying and Han Xiaoxi, and asked directly: "Two classmates, won't you be the ones who invited me here?"

  "How is it you?" Ye Siying exclaimed.

  When Chen Chufan raised his head, Ye Siyuan finally recognized the boy who had been using a modified version of "Starry Sky" to keep himself awake for two consecutive days.
