He asked suddenly.Ning Shu couldn't help but be slightly taken aback, then nodded: "I had some pancakes when I came here earlier, and Mother also sent a little food."He wasn't quite sure why the other...Ning Shu had never been touched on the feet by someone of the same gender before, not even once from childhood to adulthood.

He slightly pursed his lips and lowered his long lashes, looking down.

...there's a kind of indescribable tension and awkwardness.

His socks are new today and he doesn't sweat much normally, so they probably don't smell....

His attention gradually became distracted by Zhou Jingyu's hands, the pain lessened somewhat, but his handsome face was still slightly pale.

Zhou Jingyu's hands had distinct knuckles, very beautiful, like works of art.

Unlike Ning Shu, who was fair and delicate, almost to the point of being overly pretty. And just a slight touch would cause her skin to flush with a faint pink hue.

Ning Shu could sense her ankle being held in the other person's hand.

That slightly warm temperature seemed to set even that piece ablaze.

Zhou Jingyu just followed his toes.

With downcast eyes, she appeared calm and collected.

"How are you feeling now"

Zhou Jingyu looked over, his eyes a bit deep. But they were different from before, as if something was being suppressed deep down.

His voice unconsciously took on a barely perceptible low note.

Ning Shu only felt her foot return to normal, then she slowly nodded.

Zhou Jingyu didn't speak, and someone helped him put his socks back on.

She silently stared at him: "Would you be free to come to my place"

Ning Shu was slightly taken aback, though she didn't understand what the other party wanted to do. But she still nodded and couldn't help but let out a light sigh: "Thanks, Yu Ge. My foot should have just cramped."

Zhou Jingyu stood up and said, "It should be because you didn't warm up enough and haven't exercised properly before."

Ning Shu's face flushed slightly.

He doesn't really pay attention to this aspect usually, preferring to stay in his dorm.

.......

This is Ning Shu's second time visiting Zhou Jingyu's dormitory.

Ning Yang is not here.

Maybe he hasn't come back yet.

He paused for a moment, just about to sit in his brother's place, but then he saw Zhou Jingyu walking out from behind. He lowered his eyes and said, "Come here."

Ning Shu pursed her lips, halting her movements.

He walked past.

The tall guy bent down slightly and said in a low voice, "Your wound still needs to be iced for a while."

Ning Shu remained silent.

He reached out his hand, but Zhou Jingyu simply looked at him with a calm expression, making no indication that he was going to give him the towel.

instead used his eyes to signal.

Ning Shu pursed her lips, a little embarrassed to withdraw her hand.

A faint smile flashed across Zhou Jingyu's eyes, but it vanished just as quickly, as if it were merely an illusion.

He bowed his head, motioning for Ning Shu to sit down.

Ning Shu paused.

The tall guy was already slightly bending over and crouching down. But there was nothing beside him, if he wanted to sit down, there was only one bed.

But this bed wasn't Ning Yang's.

It goes without saying who it belongs to.

Ning Shu hesitated slightly, thinking to herself that she had once heard her brother complain about this. Her good friend was a bit of a neat freak, but back then, Ning Shu didn't know Zhou Jingyu.

But now that I think about it, the person I'm closest to is probably Zhou Jingyu.

Moreover, it's also apparent from his lifestyle.

"What's wrong"

As if sensing the expression on Ning Shu's face, Zhou Jingyu looked over.

Ning Shudao: “.....Yu Ge, where should I sit”

The tall boy across from her raised an eyebrow imperceptibly and then said, "What did Ning Yang tell you"

Ning Shu's astonishment was evident on her face.

He didn't expect his brother's friends to know so much about his brother.

He was a little embarrassed, he pursed his lips slightly, and didn't expect his performance to be so obvious. He could only vaguely say: "My brother said that you have a slight cleanliness obsession in life."

Because Ning Yang knew what his friend was like, on the first day, he specially told his younger brother where his bed was, fearing that Ning Shu would get it wrong.

Zhou Jingyu said calmly, "Is that so"

His gaze fell on Ning Shu's face, and he said in a low, soft voice, "I don't have that many demands."

Ning Shu paused slightly.

What does Zhou Jingyu mean by this... Does it mean that he doesn't mind if you sit on his bed

Or is it just that big brother was exaggerating

Ning Shu didn't quite understand, but seeing that the other party had said so, she slowly sat down. Zhou Jingyu calmly placed a cold towel on her feet.

It's a bit chilly.

Ning Shu's feet couldn't help but shrink back.

like a rabbit that has been startled.

When he raised his eyes, Zhou Jingyu was also looking at him. He didn't know if he had taken in this look of his for how long.

Ning Shu didn't know why, but the other person was a good friend of her own brother. The two had been in intermittent contact online for a year before this, though they didn't chat often, they did maintain a vague sort of connection.

Not to mention that Zhou Jingyu gave him a lot of help with his studies.

But when he was in front of Zhou Jingyu, he couldn't act casually with his brother's friends, always feeling instinctively awkward.

A little nervous to the point of helplessness.

I heard from your brother that you've received a lot of love letters

Zhou Jingyu said faintly.

Ning Shu was taken aback. That day, Ning Yang had asked him how many confessions he received after going to university. He hadn't counted them, so he just casually said a number.

There were about ten people.

He slowly pursed his lips and whispered, "...How did brother tell you this too"

Zhou Jingyu said in a low voice: "Actually, when you were in high school, your brother said the same thing."

Ning Shu pursed her lips, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Zhou Jingyu looked at him while saying, "Your brother was very afraid of you falling in love too early back then."

Ning Shu became increasingly embarrassed, not knowing where to put her hands and feet. She took a deep breath and said, "At that time, I didn't have any thoughts of falling in love. I just wanted to study."

"Well, I understand."

Zhou Jingyu's gaze swept over his face for a circle before suddenly saying, "What about now"

Ning Shu was a little taken aback.

"What"

Zhou Jingyu looked at him calmly, his eyes deep and low, "Do you have any thoughts about falling in love now"

Those eyes were like the sea, so deep that one could easily get lost in them. They were calm, yet capable of holding everything.

It's no wonder that Zhou Jingyu has many admirers.

Ning Shu had a dazed thought, perhaps some girls, just by encountering those eyes, would already be lost. He slightly uncomfortably averted his gaze, avoiding the other's line of sight.

Those fair ears were tinged with a blush.

Ning Shu then replied, "…I don't have that idea for now."

Zhou Jingyu's gaze deepened slightly, his eyes fixed on the boy's reddened earlobes, his Adam's apple bobbing.

Lowering her eyes: "Out of all the people who confessed to you, none were someone you liked"

Ning Shu didn't know why he brought up this topic with his brother and his friends. After thinking about it, he still honestly expressed his feelings: " ...there are some good ones among them, but I don't feel anything."

Zhou Jingyu said no more.

But Ning Shu was able to clearly see that the other party's mood had improved significantly.

After a while.

The tall guy took the towel off his feet, paused for a moment, then reached out and rubbed his head.

"Before meeting someone you like, don't try to start a relationship easily. It's responsible for yourself and for others."

When Zhou Jingyu said this, his tone was flat and he didn't sound condescending at all.

His voice was low and calm.

Ning Shu subconsciously nodded.

Then he belatedly realized that his brother's friend had touched his head.

Ning Yang often did this, but he was still touched by a boy other than his brother for the first time.

He was taken aback for a moment.

Zhou Jingyu finished the action, nonchalantly put his hand back, and then slowly said: "Ning Yang said your hair is very soft. I tried it, it's true."

He kept his gaze fixed on the person as he said that.

Ning Shu didn't speak, but her cheeks slowly flushed red.

He wondered what his brother was saying to his friends.

.,......

When Ning Shu returned to the dormitory, it was already late. He first took care of his own business and then took a shower before going to bed.

Then, I received several messages from people.

Ning Shu first replied to the important people.

First, I responded to my brother's message.

Ning Yang said, "I heard that Ning Shu accidentally got a cramp in her leg while playing ball."

Ning Shu hummed in response, paused for a moment, and said it was nothing serious. Moreover, Zhou Jingyu had helped him deal with it in time.

Ning Yang naturally understood. He clicked his tongue and said to his younger brother, "Your body is too weak. You still need to exercise often, you know Otherwise, in the future, even a man will be able to bully you."

Ning Shu didn't speak, thinking her brother was exaggerating. No matter what, he was over five foot seven inches tall; although not five foot nine, he was pretty close.

After talking with Tong Ning Yang for a while, Ning Shu saw the message Zhou Jingyu had sent him earlier.

The elder brother's friend asked him how his foot was doing.

Ning Shu replied, "I'm much better now, it's fine. Thanks, Yu Ge."

Zhou Jingyu replied with a good.

Ning Shu replied to several classmates one after another. Seeing that it was almost time, she closed her eyes and rested for the rest of the day.

Back then, when he was reincarnated into this world, Zero hadn't expected...

It has already happened.

If they were to start over, that meant Ning Shu's very existence would be erased, and Ning's parents would lose a child.

So Ning Shu did not choose to have Lingling find him a new identity, but chose to be born into this world.

He just lived like that in the world for eighteen years, and in those eighteen years.

Ning Shu had long since regarded Ning Yang and the others as her own family.

As for Zero, it said it would come out and give a prompt when the task object appears.

Ning Shu thought for a moment, the time period that Lingling mentioned was almost up.

The task object should have appeared too, but he still doesn't see Ling Ling's prompt.

Could something have happened on Lingling's sides 001, don't you have a name"The boy looked at him, licking his scarlet lips: "Yeah."His eyes were a little glazed as he looked at Ning Shu: "But I can't tell you now."Ning Shu tried to see other expr...
