Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

In the end, it still had to be asked. If there was anything Xiaofan couldn't let go of now, it was Liu Siyan.

Unable to let go, or unwilling to let go, even Xiaofan might not know what he truly felt inside.

Originally, he thought that if she was doing well and was happy, then he shouldn't disturb her, but...

"She just returned from a trip to the Maldives."

Upon hearing Xiaofan mention that person's name, Liu Siyan felt somewhat displeased in her heart. However, she wasn't meeting Xiaofan for the first time today, and if she were to be jealous, she should be the last person in line. After all, they knew each other much earlier than she did.

Moreover, Chen Mei'Er had seen what had happened between them at the time and, as a woman herself, deeply understood the pain of longing.

"Is she... doing well now?"

"She..."

"Hmm?"

"She has made many friends now. It seems she's a bit different from before."

Different? In what ways different?

The topic revolving around Liu Siyan lasted until the end of dinner. The next morning, everyone returned to their respective posts. Since Xiaofan had returned, everyone naturally wanted to stay in Capital City, but the matters at hand still needed to be explained clearly first.

Chen Mei'Er didn't insist on handling any transfer procedures, anyway, he went to Capital University for Liu Siyan, and going along might be inappropriate. Besides, since he had returned, she could see him anytime in Capital City.

Today, Xiaofan rode in Li Kuo's car to Capital University. This was Xiaofan's second visit; the first was when he first arrived in Capital City and came with some classmates from Yuanming to see the beauties. Now, he had become a part of this place. Was it fate, or was it human doing?

Li Kuo was not without a reputation at the university. Knowing that Li Kuo seldom came to campus, whenever his car arrived, many female students would take the opportunity to chat, asking for his QQ, WeChat, and phone numbers.

"Business is good, huh."

"Hey, I am not you; having too many women is troublesome."

"Hehe."

Li Kuo was right; maybe he was creating trouble for himself.

University life was indeed very peaceful; one could see it on the smiling faces of all the students.

Xiaofan originally thought he could return to tranquility, but on the first day of school, he already felt uncomfortable.

Bored, immensely bored. To him, the topics that the lecturers and professors talked about were not of interest, and it even felt like a waste of time.

Maybe it was because he had experienced too much.

"Li Kuo."

"Ah?"

"Am I not more handsome than you?"

"Ah?"

"I should be a bit more handsome than you."

"Nonsense. What's gotten into you?"

"Why do all these girls always come and talk to you, but not to me?"

"Because here, being handsome doesn't feed you."

"Hmm. Makes sense."

Three days in Capital University and Xiaofan still hadn't seen Liu Siyan even once. He even walked past her department several times in detours, but he just didn't see her.

Of course, someone would surely say Xiaofan was being silly. If you want to see her, just call her, right?

But calling her, what would he say? After hurting her so completely back then, now asking for her forgiveness? He simply had no ground to stand on, right?

"Xiaofan?"

Finally, after sitting in the cafeteria for a long time, a girl came up to talk to Xiaofan, but it was someone familiar to him.

"Oh, the old class leader…"

"It's really you, how come you're here? Where have you been all this time?"

"Sit down, it's a long story. How have you been lately? How's your aunt's health?" Xiaofan asked gently with a smile.

"Yeah, she's been good recently. My mom's health is pretty stable now, as long as she goes to the hospital for regular check-ups and doesn't overwork, she'll be fine."

Chen Mengying sat down gracefully; after a year of not seeing her, she was still the same as before, seemingly never changed. Delicate and cute, she might not have the grace of a noble family, but she was elegant and demure.

She truly didn't expect to meet Xiaofan here. To encounter this man she had been secretly harboring feelings for all this time.

Now that he was back and sitting right there in front of her, yet, she couldn't reveal her feelings, couldn't even display the joy on her face. That incident, that affection, would have to forever remain buried deep inside.

"Come on, old class leader, I've seen you so many times at school, and you never wanted to sit and have a meal with me. But Xiaofan shows up, and suddenly the treatment changes." Li Kuo teased from the side.

"Li Kuo, that's for other reasons. You're always surrounded by so many girls, getting too close to you would make me a public enemy to the girls."

"Excuses." Li Kuo utterly refused to believe it.

"Hey, Xiaofan, why are you at Capital University? Looking for Siyan?"

"Hmm? I'm here for school."

"School?"

No wonder Chen Mengying exclaimed. Because she knew, back in Mingyuan, Xiaofan seldom attended school and often was engaged in some mysterious activities. Hearing that Xiaofan was now back for studies seemed unbelievable.

"Yeah, is... is Siyan doing well now?"

"She... I don't really know. I haven't been with her much recently." Chen Mengying's eyes shifted slightly, seemingly hiding something.

"Aren't you best friends? Why aren't you together recently?" Li Kuo followed up.

"It's because of him..." Chen Mengying pouted, looking at Xiaofan and said.

"Hmm?"

"Who was it that hurt Siyan so deeply back then? Do you know it took her more than half a year to recover? During that time, I was with her almost every day. But after she got over it, she began to change, yet I couldn't pinpoint exactly how. Maybe staying with me reminded her of you, so she gradually distanced herself. Although we still keep in touch often, it's rare to be together."

"I heard she made a lot of new friends."

"What new friends? Just some people trying to pursue Siyan. I don't know what she's thinking, really giving out her phone number to people, even staying in contact with a few known tough girls on campus. Xiaofan, only you can change Siyan back."

"I..."

"The fact that you're asking me about Siyan shows you haven't forgotten her."

"I don't have the right."

"At least tell her the truth then..."

"The truth?"

"If I guess correctly, you deliberately put on a show for Siyan back then, made her angry, and break up with you. I was surprised, too. After your breakup, you suddenly disappeared, even Chen Mei'Er didn't know where you went. So now that you're back, you should tell her the truth, right?"
