The teacher for this major class was very kind, and there was usually a ten-minute break in the middle.
Qin Tian finished two books on house decoration design in one class. After the teacher announced the break, he stretched comfortably.
"Tired?"
Xia Nuannuan asked with a sweet smile.
"Not really!"
Qin Tian chuckled heartily and looked at the small hands resting on her desk.
"Are your hands still cold?"
"No, they're fine."
"Then I'm a bit cold. Be my hand warmer!"
Qin Tian directly grabbed her small hands and cupped them, rubbing them.
Xia Nuannuan's pretty face blushed slightly as she shot him a look, but she let him have his way. In fact, she was quite enjoying it herself.
Qin Tian's hands felt large and warm to her, and being held in his palm felt good too.
"Cao Mingliang has a crush on that girl again?"
Xia Nuannuan's gaze drifted towards a certain direction in the front of the classroom.
Qin Tian followed her line of sight and saw Cao Mingliang sitting there, chatting and laughing with a girl in the front row.
The girl was from Class Two of the Economics Department and often attended their classes. She was quite pretty. If you discounted the boost from makeup, her natural appearance was even better than Lu Yanran's.
"Who knows!"
Qin Tian shrugged indifferently.
"I noticed he's been sitting with that girl in class recently."
Xia Nuannuan withdrew her gaze and turned her head towards Qin Tian with a strange expression.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Don't worry, I'm definitely not learning from him, and I can't even learn from him."
Qin Tian quickly suppressed his smile, his expression becoming serious as he assured her.
"Of course I believe you, that's not what I meant. I saw him chatting happily with another girl from a different class before. Isn't he too much of a playboy?"
Xia Nuannuan's eyes revealed a hint of disgust as she lowered her voice and asked, "Could it be because of Lu Yanran?"
"I can only say it's partly due to that!"
Qin Tian nodded with a smile.
After breaking up with Lu Yanran, Cao Mingliang had started to let himself go.
It wasn't just the two girls Xia Nuannuan mentioned; the number of contacts in his QQ and phone address book had been increasing daily.
That's right, all girls, and they were either good-looking or had qualities that were very attractive to men.
And the one he currently valued the most was a senior who already had a boyfriend of several years.
Recently, after the dorm lights went out, Cao Mingliang would always talk to them about that senior.
That senior was a junior at their school. She and her boyfriend from another school had been together since they graduated from junior high. Lately, it seemed they were experiencing a bit of the seven-year itch. She complained a lot about her boyfriend and would often vent to Cao Mingliang, with some flirtatious exchanges naturally occurring.
Cao Mingliang generously shared a lot of the content of these conversations with them.
Qin Tian and the others expressed disdain for his behavior of coveting someone else's girlfriend, but they listened with great interest.
Of course, Qin Tian and Chen Zhuang would also remind Cao Mingliang to be careful, warning him not to end up like they did when they went to the bar to confront Liang Yu, only to be beaten up by his boyfriend. They would definitely be standing on the sidelines watching the show.
Xia Nuannuan heard this and glanced again in Lu Yanran's direction.
Lu Yanran was sitting in the last row of the classroom with a girl from Class Two. The two of them were looking in Cao Mingliang's direction, chatting about something.
This girl from Class Two was quite similar to Lu Yanran, and the two of them had been spending a lot of time together recently.
Qin Tian suddenly felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He took it out and saw a text message from an unknown number.
"Attending class with your girlfriend?"
This number had sent him a simple greeting two days ago.
He had thought it was spam and ignored it.
Now, seeing this message, he realized something was amiss and his brow furrowed tightly.
"What's wrong? Whose message is it?"
Xia Nuannuan leaned over to look at his phone screen.
"I don't know who it is, it's quite strange."
Qin Tian didn't hide anything and let her see the two messages.
"How does she know you're in class with me? Could it be one of the girls in our school who has a crush on you?"
Xia Nuannuan guessed with a smile.
"No way? How did she get my phone number?"
"Many people in the class have your phone number. You're so famous in school, it wouldn't be hard to find out your number, right?"
"That's true!"
Qin Tian nodded in agreement. After a moment of thought, he added, "But it doesn't feel like it."
"Why don't you reply to the message and ask?"
Xia Nuannuan pouted.
Qin Tian looked at her with some surprise and humbly shook his head, "Forget it, it's too much trouble. I'll just block it!"
Saying that, he made to block the number.
"Don't!"
Xia Nuannuan reached out and put her hand on his, stopping him. She smiled and said, "Just reply. It's fine, I'm quite curious too."
"Are you sure you want me to reply?"
Qin Tian confirmed with a serious expression.
"Yes!"
Xia Nuannuan nodded slightly.
"Alright!"
Qin Tian smiled helplessly and quickly typed a reply.
"Who are you?"
In a short while, the other side quickly replied.
"On the second floor of the bar that day, we were sitting not far from you. I was watching you the whole time. Do you remember?"
Upon seeing this message, Xia Nuannuan's delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she looked at Qin Tian with a questioning gaze.
Qin Tian recalled the young men and women on the second floor of the bar that day, but since he hadn't paid them any attention, he naturally had no recollection.
"No impression!"
After replying, Qin Tian looked up at Xia Nuannuan.
"When did you go to a bar?"
Xia Nuannuan asked.
Qin Tian gave a wry smile and explained the incident of going to the bar with Cao Mingliang and others to confront Liang Yu.
"I see!"
Xia Nuannuan nodded in understanding, her eyes filled with grievance as she looked at him accusingly, "Then why didn't you take me with you? And who is this girl?"
"I really don't know who this is."
"She said she was watching you the whole time!"
"There was indeed a table of people not far from us. They seemed to be a group of rich second-generation individuals, but I didn't pay attention to them, nor did I have any interaction."
"Then how did she get your phone number?"
"I'm very puzzled too!"
Qin Tian's brow furrowed tightly as he pondered what was going on.
"Then why don't you text her and ask?"
Xia Nuannuan suggested.
"Maybe we shouldn't, I'll just block it."
Qin Tian was reluctant to deal with it.
"Ask her! Otherwise, I'll keep thinking about it."
Xia Nuannuan said earnestly.
Qin Tian could only nod helplessly and sent a message asking the other party how they got his phone number.
"I got it through your car license plate number and asked a friend to look it up. I'm sorry!"
"You investigated me? What are your intentions?"
Seeing this message, Qin Tian's expression turned displeased as he replied again.
They waited for a few minutes, and it wasn't until the class bell rang that the other party sent another message.
"Don't worry, I have no malicious intent. I just wanted to get to know you. The first time I saw you, I thought you were very handsome and charming. My friends didn't believe you could beat those security guards, but I knew from the start that you were very capable."
Qin Tian's expression stiffened as he slowly looked up and saw Xia Nuannuan looking at him with a face full of resentment.
"Nuannuan, this has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything."
"Hmph, Siqi is right. Men are indeed philanderers, their true natures are all the same."
"Nuannuan, I'm being framed!"
