Xu Shen was much taller than Li Wan. She couldn't walk as fast as him, so Xu Shen slowed down and took care of her pace.

There are many flowers blooming on the roadside. The most brilliant ones are the winter jasmine, yellow flowers that welcome the wind and rain.

The road is very long.

Li Wan walked silently beside Xu Shen, walking side by side.

No one has ever walked this road with her, from end to end.

Xu Shen was wearing a long black coat and a dark blue tie. In the white mist and drizzle, his delicate facial features became more delicate and softer, and even the usually tough facial lines became much gentler.

For a long time, no one spoke.

They could hear each other's footsteps and the sound of rain falling on the umbrella.

"Why don't you speak?" Xu Shen asked.

"say what?"

"You have nothing to say to me?"

"Didn't you always say that you and I have no common language..." This was what he said himself.

"..." Xu Shen didn't argue with her, "How is your new mentor?"

"Very good, where is Liao Wenhua?"

"Why do you care about that greasy middle-aged man?"

"I'm just curious to know what you did to him..." Li Wan felt that with his tough style of doing things, Liao Wenhua would definitely not get any good results.

"It's nothing, it just makes it difficult for him to survive in Nancheng."

"Oh...I'm quite curious, what will happen if I make you unhappy one day?" Li Wan's eyes sparkled.

"Are you five years old? You are also curious about this and that. Curiosity killed the cat."

Xu Shen said nothing more and asked her some things about her study.

Li Wan answered them one by one.

Students pass by from time to time on the road, and the campus is very lively in the early morning.

Li Wan and Xu Shen walked side by side. For a long time, Li Wan habitually walked with her head lowered, her petite body next to Xu Shen, and she was not exposed to the rain.

No matter how long the road is, it has an end.

Downstairs in the teaching building, Li Wan said goodbye to Xu Shen. Her beautiful long eyelashes were covered with mist, and her big, watery eyes were filled with bright light, which was very much like the warm sunshine of spring and the starry sky.

"I'm going into the classroom."

"Well, you go in and I'll go back."

"Well, bye."

Li Wan's butterfly-wing eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she waved to Xu Shen.

She walked up the steps, turned around, and saw Xu Shen still standing there holding an umbrella. She paused for a while and curled her lips: "It's getting late. You should go to the company early."

"Do you want me to pick you up tonight?" Xu Shen stood at the foot of the steps and raised his head slightly, meeting her gaze.

"No!" Li Wan decisively refused. Who wants him to pick it up?

At the bottom of the steps, Xu Shen's face in the hazy mist had a good-looking expression. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What time does get out of class end?"

"I won't tell you."

"Okay." Xu Shen didn't force it, "I'll go to Zhilan's house to buy cheese for Tiantian in the evening, do you want it?"

"Then bring me a box of their tiramisu cakes."

"Okay." Xu Shen agreed.

Li Wan was satisfied.

Zhilan's house was too far away from the university town, and she could only go there once in a while. Since Xu Shen was on the way, she wanted a box of cakes.

The class time was almost here, Li Wan trotted away and disappeared into the corridor.

More and more students appeared in the teaching building, and many people noticed Xu Shen, but naturally no one in the group recognized him.

Xu Shen stood in the rain for a while before leaving.
