Chapter 141: 141: Blessing
Ye Lingran laughed helplessly and explained, "I noticed a few days ago that you didn’t look too good. Your spirit seemed off, always daydreaming. But in the last couple of days, you’re practically bouncing around when you walk. It’s a bit obvious, don’t you think? Anyone with eyes can see it!"
Upon hearing this, Cen Jin’s face showed a hint of embarrassment, and she sheepishly touched her nose, smiling apologetically, "Is... is it that obvious?"
"What do you think?"
"Hehe, sorry about that. I’ll... try to control myself a bit." Cen Jin lowered her head, blushing as she laughed, making a small gesture with her hand.
Ye Lingran chuckled, "So, the reason you seemed down a while back was because of Jiang Baizhou?"
"Uh, sort of, just a little misunderstanding." Cen Jin didn’t plan to elaborate on the misunderstanding because she felt it was quite silly.
"So now that it’s cleared up, you two are together?"
"Yeah."
"Indulge my curiosity a bit, who made the first move?"
"I did."
"I knew it." Ye Lingran covered her mouth and laughed again, "But seeing how happy you are now makes me happy for you too."
"Thank you."
"Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for your blessing."
"Oh, it’s nothing. We’re friends, right? If you’re happy, of course, I’ll be happy for you!"
"Were you about to take a nap just now?"
"Yeah, I was planning to rest a bit. My brain’s been all over the place this morning, so I want to calm down and sort out my thoughts."
"Then you should rest, I won’t bother you."
"Okay."

Approaching half-past five, dusk gradually settled in, and as the first lights came on, the once peaceful and quiet street corner started buzzing with life. Cen Jin said goodbye to Ye Lingran and left the studio, catching a cab to Nanda.
As she was nearing Nanda, Cen Jin sent a WeChat message to Jiang Baizhou. After waiting for about half a minute, Jiang Baizhou replied, telling her to head to the teaching building where he used to study and wait for him there.
After getting out of the taxi, Cen Jin walked to the teaching building as instructed, passing by many students and couples. Seeing those sunny, handsome figures filled with vitality made her smile slightly and unexpectedly nostalgic for her school days.
As she was almost at the teaching building, Cen Jin took out her phone, planning to message Jiang Baizhou again, when three boys in basketball jerseys approached her and struck up a conversation: "Are you waiting for someone, Miss?"
Cen Jin paused her typing and glanced at the three of them. She was quite accustomed to being approached like this, both during her studies and after she started working. Many boys have approached her for her phone number and contact details, and she could probably write a book on how to decline such advances now.
According to Yu Feici, she and Lu Shishu were the type that were confessed to and pursued since childhood.
"Uh... yes, I am! Do you... need something?" Cen Jin smiled awkwardly, speaking gently and instinctively taking two steps back to put some distance between them.
"We don’t seem to have seen you around before. Are you not from this school?" asked one of the boys.
Listening to him, Cen Jin felt a subtle joy and excitement. Although she’s already 25 this year, turning 26 in a bit over a month, being mistaken for a peer by these young handsome guys still inevitably made her happy, as would any girl.
"Uh... no."
"Nie Cenjin."
