If The Moon Won’t Hold You

Chapter 50.1: Moonlight

After the New Year break, the new semester began and Yan Xingzhi dropped Cen Ning off at school.

The roads were flooded with traffic, and the guards stopped all student cars outside of the campus; only the staff were allowed in. Yan Xingzhi directly hoisted out the two suitcases and strode towards the dormitory building with Cen Ning in tow.

Many people were walking in and out of the campus, and it was inevitable that some people looked back to glance at them.

Yan Xingzhi was tall and stood straight. His face was handsome, and his whole body exuded a cold and noble aura. It attracted the attention of many young students. Cen Ning had long been accustomed to his ability to attract attention anywhere, and she was also used to people examining her after seeing him.

“I feel like if you didn’t join the army, you could become an actor.” Cen Ning followed him and commented suddenly.

Yan Xingzhi peered sideways at her. He was slightly puzzled. “Actor?”

Cen Ning grinned. “Yes, you are so good-looking, everyone loves you.”

“Everyone?” Yan Xingzhi asked with a light smile. “Why would I want so many people to love me? It’s fine as long as you love me.”

“Good.”

The two continued to walk forward, and when they were about to reach the downstairs of the dormitory, a familiar figure happened to walk towards them. The man was also taken aback when he saw the two of them, as if he didn’t expect to run into them head-on.

“Cen Ning.” Xia Yi stopped a few steps away, with a slight smile on his face.

Cen Ning: “Senior Brother, why are you here?”

“I, I’m here to give you these few books.” Xia Yi replied with some embarrassment. “I originally wanted to let the dormitory Auntie give it to you, but I didn’t expect to meet you when I was just returning. It just so happens we meet. Here you go.”

Cen Ning looked at the few books in Xia Yi’s hands, and asked unexpectedly, “These… how did you know I’m looking for them?”

“I overheard Xiao Zong mentioning, and I happened to have these, so I thought I’d bring it to you at the beginning of the school semester.” After Xia Yi finished speaking, he glanced at Yan Xingzhi with some unease, “Well… You were also a member of our photography club before, and this wasn’t a big problem.”

Cen Ning and Xia Yi hadn’t seen each other for a long time. She didn’t expect that he would lend her a book as soon as they met each other again.

“Thanks.”

Xia Yi smiled. “No problem. If you need anything in the future, you can come to the photography club to ask. Everyone misses you very much.”

When Cen Ning thought of the group of like-minded friends, she was also moved. “Yes, I will.”

“Then, there’s nothing else. I’ll go first.”

“Okay, goodbye, senior brother.”

“Goodbye.” When he turned around, Xia Yi nodded to Yan Xingzhi, and Yan Xingzhi smiled back, and then watched him leave.

Cen Ning held the few books in her arms, and when she looked back at Yan Xingzhi, she unconsciously felt a little guilty. Of course, it was not because she believed that Xia Yi still wanted to pursue her; it was just that her previous thoughts about Xia Yi made her a little embarrassed.

“He treats you well, and he still remembers the book you asked for.” Yan Xingzhi suddenly remarked lukewarmly.

Cen Ning coughed lightly. “Senior brother is very nice, he often helps us juniors.”

“Oh?” Yan Xingzhi leaned over to look at her. “Is it you guys, or just you?”

Cen Ning immediately straightened her back. “We, it’s us, not just me!”

“Really?”

“Yes!”

“He is kind-hearted, gentle and amiable, and he is pleasing to the eye.” Yan Xingzhi reached out and tapped Cen Ning’s forehead, with a smile on his lips. “No wonder you liked him before.”

Cen Ning: “…”

Why did this smile look so scary?

The luggage was brought upstairs.

This time, several of Cen Ning’s roommates welcomed Yan Xingzhi in.

“Um, that, Mr. Yan, you can sit wherever you want. We are very casual.”

“Thank you.” Yan Xingzhi was very polite to them, but he didn’t sit down. He just asked Cen Ning, “Aren’t you going to unpack your luggage? Do you want to make the bed?”

Cen Ning: “Yes, but I’m not in a hurry.”

Yan Xingzhi: “I will help you.”

Cen Ning paused, and hurriedly refused: “No, no, I will do this. You don’t need to.”

“Oh my~ Mr. Yan is really kind to our Ningning.” Chen Miao moved aside and gossiped, “Well… I heard that you are a soldier.”

“Mhm.”

“Wow! That’s amazing!” Chen Miao exclaimed. “It would be difficult to meet up as a soldier. Do you guys often see each other?”

“Yes,” Yan Xingzhi paused, and added. “We live together.”

Several roommates looked at each other in blank shock, and some made envious sounds.

Cen Ning was slightly embarrassed. “What are you guys thinking? I said before that we are neighbors, of course it counts that we live in the same place.”

Seeing Cen Ning’s anxious explanation, there was a smile on Yan Xingzhi’s lips.

Chen Miao patted Cen Ning on the shoulder. “Hey, we didn’t think about anything. What were you thinking about?”

Cen Ning: “…”

Several roommates began to gossip about their daily life. Cen Ning thought that Yan Xingzhi would be impatient, but found that he was answering all questions with a pleasant face.

Later, when it was time for a meal, everyone chatted happily and moved to the topic of lunch.

Although Yan Xingzhi didn’t like to socialize very much, as Cen Ning’s boyfriend, he felt that it was imperative to invite her few roommates to lunch.

“What do you guys want to eat?”

Chen Miao and the others were overjoyed, but they still pretended to be reserved and said, “You don’t need to be so polite, just eating a casual meal is fine.”

Yan Xingzhi looked at Cen Ning. “Then what do you suggest?”

Cen Ning didn’t expect that Yan Xingzhi planned to eat with everyone. “This… I don’t know either.”

Yan Xingzhi started musing. “Then go to the one we used to go to before, okay?”

Chen Miao: “Of course it’s okay, just order whatever. Everyone isn’t picky!”

Whatever, everyone wasn’t picky.

As a result, after arriving at the restaurant, the several roommates looked at the environment and looked at each other silently.

Although the place looked low-key there was something subtle about it when you walked in. The environment was beautiful, the design was unique, and there were not many people dining.

It seemed to be an ordinary restaurant, but somehow they also felt that it was not ordinary…
