This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 47

Qi Nian's friend encountered Jiang Wei rushing to deliver clothes to Yi Ming on the street.

Jiang Wei was hurrying along with clothes in her arms when she accidentally bumped into Qi Nian's friend. After apologizing hastily, Jiang Wei took out her phone and sent a voice message to Yi Ming: "Yi Ming, I'm on my way. Just wait a bit longer, I'll be there soon."

Qi Nian's friend recognized the profile picture – the delicate yet arrogant face of Yi Ming that she had seen on her roommate Qi Nian's phone.

Pondering for a moment, she asked softly, "Are you going to D University, classmate?"

Jiang Wei paused, then nodded: "Yes."

"What a coincidence, I'm a student at D University too." Qi Nian's friend smiled. "My boyfriend is the event manager sponsoring today's cycling event. His car can go straight into the campus. You seem to be in a hurry, why don't you come with us?"

Jiang Wei was naturally reserved and had disliked troubling others for many years.

Without a second thought, she declined: "Thank you, but there's no need. The university is just ahead, I can walk there myself."

However, Qi Nian's friend didn't give her a chance to refuse. Her boyfriend's car arrived just then, and with a gentle smile, she took Jiang Wei's arm and said, "Let's go," ushering her directly into the sedan.

Throughout the journey, Jiang Wei remained very reserved.

She was unaccustomed to such unfamiliar surroundings. In fact, when they reached the university gates, a crowd of students from nearby universities had gathered, and the car had to honk for quite a while before finally managing to enter the campus with difficulty.

"Sorry, I'll just get out and walk," Jiang Wei said, unable to bear it any longer. "I need to deliver clothes to someone who's participating in today's cycling race. If I'm any later, he'll miss it."

Qi Nian's friend glanced at her watch impassively, paused for a moment, then smiled apologetically: "My apologies, I thought driving would be faster, but it seems I've only delayed you."

"It's alright, thank you for the gesture."

Jiang Wei bowed slightly, then opened the door and walked out with the clothes.

After Jiang Wei left, Qi Nian's friend curved her lips slightly and called Qi Nian.

"How's it going, do you have the clothes ready?"

Actually, while in the car earlier, she had silently communicated with Qi Nian via WeChat. She had arranged for her boyfriend to drive slowly on purpose and anticipated the crowd at the university gates, buying time for Qi Nian to prepare a new set of clothes and deliver it to Yi Ming.

This way, compared to Jiang Wei's "late arrival," Qi Nian's "timely help" would hopefully make that boy Yi Ming view her friend more favorably.

As her friend had suggested, Qi Nian did as instructed.

However, as she walked towards Yi Ming with the clothes in her arms, she couldn't help but feel hesitant.

"Forget it, I'll just ask someone else to deliver them. When I go to get the clothes back from him later, I'll tell him then..."

Qi Nian retreated her steps awkwardly, wavered for a few minutes, then ended up handing the clothes to someone else...

This carefully planned scheme ultimately ended in "failure."

Qi Nian suddenly felt dejected, thinking to herself that perhaps she and Yi Ming were truly not fated, which is why they kept drifting further apart...

Yi Ming turned and walked away without saying another word to her.

Watching his tall figure leave, Qi Nian sighed repeatedly, "That girl Jiang Wei, you're really... very fortunate..."
