After Transmigration, The Male Lead and I had a HE

Chapter 43

At 5:30 in the afternoon, when classes were over, Su Qiuge left the school and went to the milk tea shop called Harbor.

Harbor only had two small tables, but whenever she arrived, she would always see the table that Aunt Liu had specially reserved for her.

The shop was playing music that had a pure and simple melody, making the listeners feel at ease in body and mind.

Su Qiuge drank milk tea as she worked on her papers and practice books. She quickly finished one subject.

Then she pulled out the black notebook that Xie Xinglin had given to her previously and began to analyze the material of the math competition’s training class.

For some reason, she felt that Aunt Liu kept glancing at her today, but she didn’t ask why. When the customers at the other table left, Aunt Liu sat down next to Su Qiuge.

“Xiao Su, my nephew is coming early today. You two might be able to meet.”

Huh……nephew?

Su Qiuge suddenly remembered their previous conversation some time ago——

“I have a nephew who is about your age and he’s also in high school.”

“His personality is very gloomy; he has low self-esteem and is very introverted. He also doesn’t have many friends. If he could be as cheerful as you, I wouldn’t have to worry so much.”

Then she remembered how she earnestly made those promises——

“My grades are pretty good. If he’s at the same level as me or one level lower, I can also discuss study topics with him. It’s not to say it will help him much, but he should be able to at least gain something.”

She hadn’t thought too deeply into it when she said those, but now that she heard the person was coming, she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.

But she remained very calm and collected on the surface, “Oh, that’ll be nice.”

Not long after their discussion, Su Qiuge was still reflecting on what the personality of Aunt Liu’s nephew will be like; that pitiful little friend that was introverted and had low self-esteem.

When she speaks later, she needs to pay attention to her speech so that she doesn’t scare the person.

After a short moment, the shop’s door was pushed open from the outside.

At this time, the sun was setting, causing shards of gold to flow in like water from the opening of the door.

Su Qiuge subconsciously lifted her head.

The person who arrived stood against the light. The figure was slender, the eyebrows clear, and when he raised his eyes, his expression was indifferent.

But when their gazes met, the youth’s action of pushing the door open, paused slightly.

Su Qiuge had seen this face countless times in school, but this time was the most embarrassing.

She heard Aunt Liu say to the youth who had the door pushed open, “Xinglin, quickly come here and say hello.”

Su Qiuge: “……”

What was this deja vu-like feeling of seeing an enemy when going on a blind date?

She could feel the gaze of the youth falling on her after entering the door, it was straightforward and unwavering.

Ever since she had accidentally found out about some of his family secrets, she started to avoid him intentionally or otherwise. She felt that their relationship wasn’t close enough for her to know all this, so she wanted to prevent him from thinking too deeply into it.

The two barely talked.

Xie Xinglin approached and hung his schoolbag on the chair, his expression unreadable, “It’s you?”

Su Qiuge pretended to be calm, “I also didn’t expect it to be so coincidental.”

At this moment, it was enemies meeting on a narrow road. The brave will win.

In a situation unexpected by everyone, whoever panics first loses.

It was now Aunt Liu’s time to be shocked. She looked at the two of them, “You know each other?”

Xie Xinglin didn’t respond, so Su Qiuge spoke up.

“We’re seatmates.”

The one that she previously said to be the ‘strangest-tempered, most difficult person to get along with’ seatmate.

Aunt Liu: “……”

Speaking to this point, Su Qiuge still found it to be a little difficult to accept. If Aunt Liu was Xie Xinglin’s Aunt, then his surname……

**t/n: in raws, Aunt Liu was specified to be ML’s ?? (gugu – aunt from the paternal side of the family – she’s hinting that they should have the same last name)
