Chapter 1287: Proud Because of Him

Having been apart for only three months, Zhou Chengchen felt like they had been separated for a very long time.

Nuzzled in Xi Siyan’s embrace: "Why did you come? You didn’t even tell me."

"Christmas gift."

"Oh? Xi, did you just pack yourself up and send yourself to me?"

"Hmm, do you want it?"

Zhou Chengchen nodded playfully: "Of course I want it, I must. But this is too insincere, hurry and wash up, I’ll be waiting in bed."

In response to Zhou Chengchen’s casual teasing, Xi Siyan didn’t feel the slightest awkwardness. Instead, he squinted his eyes and picked Zhou Chengchen up horizontally: "Together."

"Hey!"

Christmas in the United Kingdom naturally has a festive atmosphere, but Xi Siyan couldn’t stay long as he had to manage both his graduation project and the company’s affairs.

After staying in the United Kingdom for a week, it was Xi Siyan’s turn to board the plane back.

Watching his figure pass through customs, Zhou Chengchen was again hit by the dull feeling of loss from three months ago.

Zhou Chengchen regretted a little. Why did she choose to study piano, of all things?

Others graduate in four years, but she needs five, one more year forcibly added.

Even though it would be easier for Xi Siyan to come visit her after graduating, his work focus is in B City and the pressure there is so immense. Running back and forth is hard even for Zhou Chengchen.

To prevent herself from impulsively running back to his side due to longing, Zhou Chengchen devoted nearly two hundred percent of her energy to her studies.

Soon, it’s Chinese New Year. Soon, it’s Valentine’s Day again.

Xi Siyan didn’t come again because they both realized that the brief joy of reunion was truly no match for the loss felt during separation. It’s better to endure, endure a little more, until the day they can be together without separation.

In the blink of an eye, it’s summer break. On the first day of holiday, Zhou Chengchen couldn’t wait to board the plane back to B City.

Not only because she wanted to see Xi Siyan, but more importantly, Xi Siyan was graduating this summer and she wanted to attend his graduation ceremony.

As a prominent figure at Q University, it was no surprise that Xi Siyan was chosen as the representative of this year’s graduates.

Due to time constraints, Zhou Chengchen rushed directly from the airport to Q University, finally finding Liu Xiaoyu, who led her into Q University’s auditorium.

All the graduates were already dressed in their caps and gowns, sitting in rows.

Of course, many undergraduates had also come to watch, so Zhou Chengchen didn’t seem too out of place.

"Cheng Chen, you’re here, I’m heading over first."

"Alright, you go ahead."

Liu Xiaoyu’s academic performance was also outstanding enough to be envied, and as the top in his computer science department, he could have been a representative as well, but Xi Siyan’s brilliance was unbeatable. Besides, the student representatives are usually one male and one female, so Liu Xiaoyu could only be a runner-up.

After various leaders and teachers gave speeches, Xi Siyan, as the first student representative, was invited onto the stage.

Under the lights, dressed in his cap and gown, he appeared even more handsome and striking.

His calm presence immediately spread throughout the venue from the moment he stepped onto the stage.

Just a simple greeting elicited cheers from the audience.

Zhou Chengchen watched from below, feeling a surge of pride. Look, this is the person she had chosen.

"So handsome."

Many people around echoed this sentiment, which made Zhou Chengchen feel not jealous but even prouder.

"Senior Brother Xi seems to still not have a girlfriend, I’d love to confess to him."
