Chapter 1491: Chapter 1505: Her Mouth Curved Up to the Heavens

"Who’s going to marry him? If you’re not afraid of becoming an old maid, then just wait for my bouquet toss."

"Contradicting yourself."

An Ran and Wang Xiaoyi spoke simultaneously, followed by a burst of laughter.

After dinner, the girls went to watch a movie, the latest release from Yin Qianxue and Wang Han.

Although An Ran never really got along with Yin Qianxue, Wang Han was her idol.

However, for some reason, watching their movie this time, she felt nothing stirred inside her, especially when seeing Wang Han’s character passionately kiss Yin Qianxue’s character. An Ran felt a chill of goosebumps.

She secretly glanced at Shen Qi and Wang Xiaoyi beside her, noticing how serious they both were, with Shen Qi’s eyes misty and Wang Xiaoyi not blinking at all.

Turning to look at Xiao Xiao, she saw Xiao Xiao’s mouth almost curling up to the sky.

Turns out it’s not just her.

The movie ended late, and Wang Xiaoyi mentioned she was still staying in a hotel these past few days and invited them to her place once she rented an apartment. After saying goodbye, she got into a taxi.

The cinema wasn’t far from the school, so the three walked back to campus.

December had settled in, and the weather noticeably turned colder. Students were even less inclined to stay out on such a chilly night and returned early to their dorms to rest.

The campus, shrouded in darkness, seemed eerily silent, with even the streetlights appearing more dim and yellowed.

"An Ran—"

A tiny voice suddenly came from the shadows beside the road.

They stopped in their tracks and saw a figure emerging from the shadows, stepping out from the trees, glancing around cautiously.

"Xiao Xue?"

The person was none other than their dormmate Xiao Xue.

Xiao Xue’s hair was somewhat disheveled, perhaps snagged in the bushes or for some other reason, wearing a thin trench coat, shivering twice as a gust of wind blew.

The group gathered around her, approaching only to see Xiao Xue’s eyes were red and swollen, clearly having cried.

"Xiao Xue, why are you here? It’s so cold!"

The dorm was only about twenty meters away, the weather was cold, could something have happened in the dorm?

Xiao Xue didn’t answer An Ran but looked protectively toward the school’s gate, "Did you see anyone suspicious at the gate when you came back? Or did you see Brother Ming and his people?"

An Ran shook her head, "No, there was nobody at the gate when we came back."

"Yeah, who would be hanging around the gate so late? It’s freezing, Xiao Xue, what happened? If there’s something wrong, let’s talk in the dorm, it’s too cold here," Xiao Xiao chimed in.

Upon hearing An Ran’s response, Xiao Xue visibly relaxed, but she shrank back when Xiao Xiao reached out to take her hand, "No, I can’t go back to the dorm. If Brother Ming comes to the dorm looking for me, it will be the death of me." She said, her eyes growing red.

"What’s really going on?" An Ran asked again.

A while back, they had all met Dongfang Ming in the bar, and putting everything else aside, they could see Dongfang Ming truly liked Xiao Xue, being exceptionally attentive to her. Even in front of his friends, he always protected her, so how could he possibly harm her?

Xiao Xue’s tears started streaming down, "I don’t know, I really don’t know how this happened, but I know, I let Brother Ming down, it’s my fault, I can’t face him anymore..."ℯ
