Only when he went online and followed Yu Ning’s news, did Ji Mingxia realize how popular Yu Ning was now.

The origin of everything was the announcement of the college entrance examination results.

Every year, the top students in arts and sciences will briefly become the focus after the results of the college entrance exams are announced. It's mostly shallow talk about the learning experience, and this gust of wind would blow over and gradually be forgotten after a few days.

Only, this year was different. From the announcement of the college entrance examination results, Yu Ning became popular overnight and this popularity was still high.

The reason was very simple. Yu Ning’s life was so difficult, and he was also too good looking.

A poor student who grew up in an orphanage and was ostracized, but this didn’t prevent him from shining. Netizens were initially attracted to his face, but on learning about his past, felt pity.

With Yu Ning’s burst into popularity, past events were uncovered one by one. In fact, there were many contemptuous voices at first, calling him a monster for being different. However, the more this happened, the easier it caused the public to recoil.

After two months of public opinion, and fighting between black fans and admirers, Yu Ning’s fan group gradually solidified.

At this moment, Ji Mingxia searched for Yu Ning on the Internet, and the first row popped up with information about Yu Ning’s Weibo superchat, official support club, official group and so on……

Although the daily check ins in the groups was not as good as top streamers, it was comparable to the third and fourth line stars, and it was a fan group that should not be underestimated.

Ji Mingxia felt a little down on seeing the various pictures of Yu Ning people pasted in the groups.

He had read the novel and knew that Yu Ning would become a heartthrob after going to o college, but he never imagined that it would be this kind of popularity where he wasn’t only famous in school, but also on the internet. His popularity seemed higher than Ye Tian, the star!

No wonder there were so many reporters and media in the school today. The god of learning was not weaker than Ye Tian in terms of popularity.

Ji Mingxia looked at the enthusiastic fan base on the phone, and then looked at Yu Ning who was seriously folding clothes beside him. There was a cross between a dream and reality and everything felt unreal.

Yu Ning was still the same Yu Ning, but he didn’t seem to be the Yu Ning of two months ago.

So what was the rumor that Lin Cheng mentioned?

Although an overnight sensation like Yu Ning had many fans, there were many black fans. In order to control public opinion, fans will control most of the comments under the official accounts. Ji Mingxia searched for a long time but didn’t find any useful information so he had to run to the forum to dig around.

The forum was dominated by gossip so even stars with PR teams often couldn’t control the public opinion there. Yu Ning didn’t have a team so a basic search on the forum showed different kinds of posts where everyone spoke freely.

Ji Mingxia searched for a while and quickly found the content he wanted to read.

It turned out that after Yu Ning became popular, he rejected Qingbei and came to H University that was not well known. This stirred up public opinion once again.

Especially when it was discovered that Ye Tian also came to H University. The popular academic bully and the new female star were discussed together, and H University caught some popularity.

People were puzzled. With Yu Ning’s grades, and Ye Tian’s financial resources, these two people could easily go to a higher-ranked International institution, why did they choose an ordinary school like H University.

The resulting discussion was filled with endless imagination and there were a variety of threads.

The common one was that H University threw an olive branch to Ye Tian and Yu Ning for publicity, promising a lot of benefits.

There was also the idea that Yu Ning and Ye Tian knew each other, and decided to do it for hype.

Ji Mingxia looked at the posts of Yu Ning and Ye Tian’s CP fans for a long time, and just when he was about to give up, a post caught his attention.

The poster was a high school alumnus of Yu Ning.

He gave a detailed account of how he and Yu Ning had been in the same school for three years, focusing on describing every detail that happened in the days leading up to the college entrance exam, and finally came to the conclusion: Yu Ning’s deskmate applied to H University, perhaps Yu Ning went there for him.

This post was in the entertainment section, and was immediately mocked by countless passersby.

How much charm would this deskmate have to make the god of learning to give up Qingbei, cut off his own future, and run to an ordinary school like H University to study ah?

When the passersby mocked, several high school alumni of Yu Ning appeared in the post. Not only did they agree with the post, but also gave some evidence in detail.

One of which was a photo of Yu Ning and his classmate, sitting at the same table and studying.

In the photo, the deskmate was doing homework with his head down and his face wasn’t visible, while Yu Ning had his head turned slightly to look at him.

The sunlight was shining through the window and was reflected in Yu Ning’s gray eye. The eyes that usually looked a little scary had turned a very light mercury color.

There was a rare smile on his usually cold face.

Perhaps he looked so gentle, the Yu Ning in the photo didn’t look cold, but gentle and loving, which made people unable to look away.

Once this picture came out, there was a reversal.

After becoming popular, the pictures of Yu Ning that came out were all cold and gloomy. He was not only good-looking, but also had a big impact. Such qualities gather a large number of fans in a short time.

And because of his special past experiences, his gloomy temperament didn’t deter people, but also inspired pity from fans.

Everyone was used to his cold and aloof appearance, and when they suddenly saw such a gentle look, everyone was stunned.

Because the photo was taken so well, this picture was soon widely circulated among the fan group, and this post also gave birth to a rumor-

[During Yu Ning’s gray school career, everyone snubbed him and ostracized him, and only one person gave him warmth. So, where is he?]

Ji Mingxia looked at the photo, and then read this paragraph, and his heart beat uncontrollably.

The invisible face of the deskmate was none other than Ji Mingxia!

At this time, the dormitory was so quiet that Ji Mingxia could hear the sound of his heartbeat. He hurriedly controlled his emotions so that no one would notice his abnormality.

After calming down a little, Ji Mingxia couldn’t help holding his phone and walked towards Yu Ning when he saw him get up to go to bed.

“Yu Ning, I ……” Ji Mingxia had just opened his mouth when Yu Ning’s gaze fell on his phone.

Ji Mingxia felt like the look on Yu Ning’s face had turned a little cold.

He glanced at the phone, then looked at Ji Mingxia and inquired, “What’s wrong?”

Ji Mingxia was filled with emotion but Yu Ning’s cold response instantly extinguished it and he instantly came to his senses.

Something is a rumor because there is no evidence and no confirmation from the person involved.

How could the speculation based on a photo be accurate?

Not to mention, the outside world speculated that Ye Tian came to H University because of the olive branch of H University and also because of Yu Ning.

However, Ji Mingxia heard Ye Tian said she was troubled by the stalking and spying, and after the family guidance, came to H university.

What about Yu Ning?

The reason why he came to the University of H had never been announced.

Ji Mingxia felt embarrassed that he had just believed in a rumor.

Although Yu Ning was very kind to him, he was over estimating himself if he believed that Yu Ning had given up a better university, and come to study at H University for him.

If Yu Ning really knew about his life, how could he have kept his phone switched off for two months during the summer vacation and not contacted him even once?

Thinking of this, Ji Mingxia hurriedly shook his head and said, “It’s nothing.”

Yu Ning saw Ji Mingxia lower his head to avoid his eyes and he slowly withdrew his gaze. He didn’t ask further questions.

The dormitory returned to calm, and Ji Mingxia slowly returned to his place.

At the same time, on the other end of the campus.

After driving away from the boys’ dormitory, Ye Chen drove Ye Tian to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities and then took her back to the girls’ dormitory.

On the way, Ye Tian sat in the passenger seat and stole glances at Ye Chen from time to time.

Ye Chen felt her watching him the whole way, and only spoke up when they were almost at their destination: “Speak if you have something to say.”

Ye Tian immediately regained her spirits and leaned over, “Brother, do you like Ji Mingxia?”

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow: “ Nonsense, what are you talking about?”

“Come on, don’t pretend, I already know you like men.” Ye Tian said, “Your poor sister was balled up in the car for so long, you would have forgotten my existence if I had not reminded you, right?”

Ye Tian was exposed on the spot, but he wasn’t annoyed. He remained quiet for a few seconds and said, “Indeed, I forgot that you were waiting for me.”

Ye Tian rolled her eyes, then asked with curiosity: “Are you going to chase Mingxia?”

“No, I don’t know him yet, and I’m not sure of his sexuality, I’m just interested in him unilaterally. That’s it, it’s not about love and pursuit.” Ye Chen said.

“Then why did you talk so much with him just now? You even acted like a peacock with its tail open. That’s not your usual style at all.” Ye Tian complained.

Ye Chen was silent for a moment: “Because I want to win him over.”

Whether it was the calm reaction at the library, the unexpected move in the boulevard, or the medical examination report of the hospital that showed Ji Mingxia was in superhuman health.

Every detail told Ye Chen that Ji Mingxia was very special.

It just so happened that his appearance and personality completely conformed to Ye Chen’s aesthetics, so Ye Chen wanted to win him over.

It would even be better if they fell in love with each other.

If they couldn’t be a couple, there is no loss in remaining as friends.

Ye Tian was a little surprised after hearing Ye Chen’s analysis: “I thought you were just joking, are you really that optimistic about him?”

Ye Chen glanced at Ye Tian: “He is your savior, your life is worth more than five million.”

Ye Tian blinked at the words. Ye Chen’s words seemed to be complimenting her, but when she thought about it carefully, it was more like a compliment to Ji Mingxia.

“What about Yu Ning, the one who was waiting under the tree just now. He is now the most popular male god in the whole country.” Ye Tian said.

Yu Ning became popular two months ago, and his popularity was still high. He had more fans than Ye Tian, and his fans were 10,000 times better than Ye Tian’s. They not only controlled public opinion online but also never interfered with Yu Ning’s life.

Because Yu Ning had suffered so much before, most of his fans were mother fans, so they really cared about him.

Ye Tian was envious, but she didn’t go out of her way to pay attention to Yu Ning.

However, when Yu Ning was mentioned, Ye Chen frowned slightly: “You stay away from him.”

“Why?” Ye Tian asked in confusion.

“He…” is by no means good.

Ye Chen didn’t say the remaining five words, and only said to Ye Tian: “He is the same as me.”

“The same as you?” Ye Tian’s eyes widened. “No way… Could the rumors be true”

“What rumors?” Ye Chen asked.

Ye Tian briefly told him about the post on the forum.

“Many of Yu Ning’s high school classmates thought that Yu Ning came to H-University for his deskmate, but didn’t his high school classmates bully him collectively? So no one believed them.” Ye Tian said. “Wait, the person Yu Ning was waiting for was Ji Mingxia, were they deskmates?!”

Thinking of this, Ye Tian looked at Ye Chen tentatively: “Brother, Yu Ning is the same as you, he and Ji Mingxia were classmates, so you…”

“No.” Ye Chen said.

“Why?” Ye Tian asked curiously.

“Because there is a secret between me and Ji Mingxia.” Ye Chen said.

He had only sent Ji Mingxia back but Yu Ning’s reaction was that big.

He made a pact with Ji Mingxia right in front of Yu Ning. 

As long as Ji Mingxia kept his promise and didn’t say anything, Ye Chen could already imagine how depressed Yu Ning was at the moment.

Men know men best, and those with the same thoughts know each other best. 

How could a hairy boy like Yu Ning be able to swallow that?

Ye Chen’s eyes darkened slightly. The corners of his mouth raised slightly in a smile.

Ye Tian saw Ye Chen’s smile and she immediately had a bad premonition.

Ye Chen was able to take control of the group when he was young, letting their parents enjoy retirement in peace. It could be seen that he had some skills.

He was so competitive and his opponents were basically unlucky.

--------------------

Ji Mingxia scanned the news and gossip columns for everything about Yu Ning until about ten o’clock.

The students were in a state of excitement all day, and were a little tired by nightfall. So although it was only ten o’clock, many dormitories were quiet.

Ji Mingxia was also a little sleepy.

He put down his mobile phone and went into the bathroom to take a shower. The sound of water splashing was very clear in the quiet night.

Yu Ning, who was sitting at the desk first listened, then suddenly got up and went back to bed.

Ji Mingxia came out of the shower and found that everyone was lying on their beds. There was even some snoring from Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan’s beds, so he turned off the lights of the dormitory. He walked in the direction of his bed while drying the water stains on his face.

The environment of the university dormitory was a little better than in high school, but the overall structure was more or less the same. Ji Mingxia habitually came to the middle of the dormitory, stepped on the stairs and got ready to enter the bed. As a result, he had just taken a step when his body suddenly stiffened, and the whole person stopped in place.

The sprain at his waist was not serious, as long as he didn’t exert force at the sprained part, he would hardly feel anything. 

After taking a shower, he was all relaxed and habitually took the stairs to bed. It was after he lifted his foot that a dull pain came to his lower back and he remembered the injury.

He would have been able to tolerate it if he had prepared himself. But the pain came so unexpectedly and the burst of pain at his muscle caused him to bend at the waist.

Everyone had gone to sleep so he tried to not make a sound.

He could only grit his teeth and endure. He waited for the pain to reduce before slowly going up the steps.

The middle of the staircase was divided into the left and right sides, the left side was his bed, and the right was Yu Ning’s bed.

At this time, a faint sound came from the direction of Yu Ning’s bed.

The dormitory was dark, and only the distant street lights shone hazily. Ji Mingxia could not see Yu Ning’s bed clearly so he immediately stopped. He didn’t dare to move as he was afraid of making noise and disturbing Yu Ning.

When the sound from Yu Ning’s bed quieted down, Ji Mingxia bent down with difficulty, intending to crawl towards his own bed in the dark.

“Are you hurt?” Yu Ning’s lowered voice suddenly came next to Ji Mingxia’s ear.

Ji Mingxia was startled, and the body that had been tensed up exerted the wrong force, and the bent part at his waist jerked up.

The waist serves as the link between the upper and lower parts of the human body. When it jerked up at that moment, Ji Mingxia’s whole body softened, and he almost went down the stairs!

At the critical moment, a pair of hands wrapped around Ji Mingxia’s body and pulled his entire body inward.

Ji Mingxia fell in Yu Ning's direction, and by the time he came back to his senses, his whole body was already leaning in Yu Ning’s arms.
