At this moment, Lin Jiage suddenly felt that the greatest takeaway for the night wasn’t the information he had spent several hours compiling in the library.

Instead, his greatest takeaway of the night was the couple sitting in front of him… Oh, to be more exact, it was the sweet-nothings whispered by the boy before him…

…

By the time Lin Jiage arrived back to his dorm, the clock had already struck eleven.

Having had a long day, Lin Jiage took a brief shower and went straight to bed.

However, he was unable to fall asleep.

Instead, he stared at the ceiling and reminisced about the happenings in the day. The exchange between him and the French lecturer earlier in the afternoon came to mind, especially the words he had asked after s.h.i.+ Yao returned to her seat.

“If you can choose a person to climb the highest mountain with, drink the strongest liquor with, travel to the furthest land with, hop on the longest train ride with, ride on the tallest Ferris wheel with, enjoy the most beautiful night sky with, wait for the sunrise and sunset with, and challenge all the impossible with… Do you know who you will choose?”

At that moment, Lin Jiage was unsure whether the French lecturer wanted him to answer the question or translate it. So, in a concise manner, he sought clarification, “Do I translate it?”

The French lecturer shook his head and prompted him to simply answer the question.

Lin Jiage nodded in acknowledgement before falling silent. Three seconds later, he answered unwaveringly, “If the choice is in my hands, I know who I will choose.”

The French lecturer had been looking at Lin Jiage all this while, but in this instant, his gaze seemed to lower slightly to glance at s.h.i.+ Yao as he asked, “Who?”

Lin Jiage did not answer.

Unfazed by the lack of response, the French lecturer continued, “I can roughly guess who it is. However, if you do not mind, I would like some confirmation. Is she whom I have just looked at, as well as the person whom you have just sent a text to?”

This time, without any hesitation, Lin Jiage replied, “Yes…”

Pausing briefly, he added, “She is the one.”

It was apparent from the words of the French lecturer that he had noticed his little movements to help s.h.i.+ Yao cheat. However, perhaps due to the romantic nature of the French, the French lecturer still allowed him to return to his seat with a smile without punis.h.i.+ng either of them…

What struck Lin Jiage the most was the French lecturer’s question. Each of his words remained firmly stuck in his mind.

Thinking up to this point, Lin Jiage put down his handphone and he turned his body to face the wall.

As he stared fixedly at the wall, a phrase crossed his mind.

I want to climb the highest mountain and drink the strongest liquor with you.

I want to travel to the furthest land and hop on the longest train ride with you.

I want to ride on the tallest Ferris wheel and enjoy the most beautiful night sky with you.

I want to wait for the sunrise and sunset and challenge all the impossible with you.

I want to attend cla.s.s and sit side by side with you.

I want to have meals and be all chummy at the canteen with you.

I want to visit the library and whisper sweet-nothings with you.

I want to be… I want to be together with you.

If it is together with you, I am willing to do anything.

As long as it is you, s.h.i.+ Yao.

As the phrase surfaced in Lin Jiage’s mind in its entirety, his heart began inexplicably beating faster and faster.

He had never experienced such an intense longing for a certain person nor thing before.

It was a powerful desire that compelled him to run right up to her and claim her for his own.

Lin Jiage pressed his lips together and stared unwaveringly at the wall for a long while when words suddenly escaped from his mouth, “I have made up my mind.”

Hearing the words spoken by Lin Jiage, Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou jumped up from their beds and asked in unison, “Boss, what have you made up your mind on?”

But as though he had not heard them, Lin Jiage continued to stare at the wall after a few more moments before turning his head to look at Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou, “…”
