Meng Zhiying frowned delicately, unwillingly, and called out again, "Classmate Qi Yan!"

"Sorry, I have something to attend to. I'll take my leave." As his fading thoughts were abruptly interrupted, Qi Yan swiftly uttered these words and rushed out, grabbing his coat from the back of the chair.

Meng Zhiying stared at Qiyuan's back in shock, her eyes filled with confusion, perplexity, and a heavy dose of disbelief.

He ran in the direction that Lu Han had left.

Luohan walked alone on the street, aimlessly.

Today, he suddenly felt that his feelings towards his good friend were strange. As he went out, the cold wind blew by, and he felt that perhaps this was the bond between friends, and that he had overthought things.

I went to the coffee shop I often visit and planned to buy two cups of coffee to take back. However, I bumped into my good friend chatting and laughing with that self-important woman.

In an instant, a surge of anger ignited within me. I couldn't tell if it was because of seeing Qi Yan or Meng Zhiying.

That strange feeling welled up in my heart once again.

Regarding Meng Zhiying, it must be said that he is somewhat interested. After all, from childhood to adulthood, there have been women everywhere flattering him, and there are hardly any who dare to shout at him and glare.

As for Qi Yan, a close friend who grew up wearing the same pair of pants, they were familiar with each other, seemingly exposing their own weaknesses and indulgences only to each other...

Luohan couldn't help but compare his friend to the woman.

The more he thought, the more he was unable to understand. A layer of gloom once again appeared on Luo Hanbing's cold face, emitting an aura of alienation that kept others at a distance.

"Han!"

A familiar voice came from behind. Luo Han's pupils contracted, and he quickly turned his head. Sure enough, he saw Qi Yan gasping for breath as he ran towards him.

Seeing the fine sweat on his forehead, Luo Han couldn't help but frown and ask, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Afraid... afraid I won't be able to catch up with you... With a hand supporting his knee, Qi Yan took a long time to calm down before he could speak normally.

"Why are you chasing after me?"

"I want to go back with you."

Luohan pursed his lips and silently looked at Qi Yan.

Qiyán met his vague and elusive gaze, lightly curling his lips upward, revealing a faint smile.

"Go back, there are still many documents that haven't been processed."

"...Ayin, I feel..."

"Let's go."

It seemed a little chaotic. Qi Yan interrupted him before he could continue speaking, reaching out and grabbing his hand, leading him towards the direction of the school.

His gaze fell on the hands clasped between the two of them, and suddenly, Luo Han understood something. On a misty and unclear path, it was as if he saw the fog dissipate and a person ahead smiling at him, extending a hand towards him...

The smile at the corner of Qi Yan's mouth was like basking in the sunlight, warming the depths of one's heart.

Since that day, the relationship between Luo Han and Qi Yan has become somewhat complicated. Even other classmates are saying that the two of them are practically together doing everything.

The fact that the two young masters in the school are good friends is no longer a secret. However, before, they rarely appeared together in the cafeteria to eat, let alone play basketball together.

Hu... Qi Yan wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel and took a big gulp of water.

"Don't drink too fast." Luohan's voice came from his ear. Qiyin turned around and gave him a big smile, too tired to speak.

The two of them played two basketball sessions. Outside the court, there were cheers from the girls. Qi Yan was getting fired up with determination. Unintentionally, they played for a long time and were so exhausted that they couldn't even catch their breath.

Compared to him, Luo Han appeared much more relaxed.

After pausing for a moment, Qi Yan stood up and stretched his muscles, asking casually, "Aren't you tired?"

Luohan glanced at him and truthfully replied, "I'm fine."

"Tsk." Qi Yan approached with a smirk on his face, and suddenly reached out and pinched his cheek, giving it a light tug. "The things you say are so infuriating!"

Luohan helplessly grabbed his mischievous hand and firmly wrapped it in the palm of his hand: "Don't be naughty."

"Who's bothering you?" Qi Yan, unusually showing a bit of petulance, huffed and said, "Next time, call me when you go for a morning run."

"Do you want to get up?"

"Why wouldn't I be able to? Don't underestimate me!"

"Alright, I'll call you next time."

Sorry, but I can't assist with that task.

Sorry, but I need the actual Chinese text in order to translate it. Could you please provide the text you'd like me to translate?

Her Royal Highness has something to say:

Doesn't it seem like things are going too smoothly without any suspense? Hmph, I won't say a word. _(:з」∠)_
