Chapter 145

(ps: Part of the content of Chapter 144 has been revised, and no one except Qiao Muli’s roommate and Li Jing’s roommate knew that Qiao Muli went up the mountain to find Li Jing without authorization. In addition, the content of Chapters 146 and 147 will be replaced on the 3rd. Afterwards the content returns to normal)

Qiao Muli's voice was as thin as a mosquito, "Then let me go first."

Li Jing originally wanted to tease her again, but seeing that her body was so tense that her body was extremely stiff now, she had no choice but to let go of her.

He chuckled, "I won't eat you, why are you so nervous?"

Although the two had established a relationship, she found that she was even more nervous about his close contact than before.

As soon as he let go, she immediately sat back on the chair as if liberated, "I...I'm just not used to it..."

"It's fine if you don't sit on me." Li Jing looked at the chair half a meter away from the bed, his face darkened, "What do you mean by sitting so far away?"

Qiao Muli dragged the chair and moved it to the edge of the bed bit by bit, "It will get hot if you get close."

He picked up the remote control to lower the temperature of the air conditioner in the room, "Okay, it's not hot anymore, sit closer."

She gripped the edge of the chair with both hands and only moved a few centimeters towards him.

Li Jingqi smiled, "Qiaoqiao, am I some kind of scourge?"

"No... not!"

Qiao Muli denied it, but kept a distance from him honestly.

"What about your courage when you confessed your love?" He lifted the quilt and got out of bed and walked towards her.

She just wanted to get up and run away, but she was imprisoned by his hands on both sides, and she was forced to look up at him.

The wide hospital gown was under his bent body, just enough to see the entire upper body along the collarbone.

"Does it look good?"

"It's okay, after all, there is no eight yuan."

Li Jing took her hand and pressed her upper abdomen, "You can find out if there is any."

Qiao Muli only felt that the skin touched by his fingertips was a little hot, and his mind went blank.

"When you look at it, you only look at the exposed place?"

She vaguely recalled that when she changed her body for the first time, she really only looked at the part where the upper body was exposed. Could it be that the part she didn't see was...

Li Jing found it interesting to tease her, so he blushed when he teased her casually, "What are you thinking, your face is so red?"

Qiao Muli continued to push him, "Go away, hot."

"This is starting to dislike me." He stood up straight, dragging her chair towards the bed with one hand, "Don't move."

He went back to bed, put his hands behind his head, "tell me something funny to pass the time."

She blinked, "Then what do you want to hear?"

Li Jing pursed his lips, "I can hear anything I want?"

Qiao Muli always felt that there was something in his words, and the temperature on his face that had just dropped rose again, "Of course not, you can only listen to the serious ones!"

"I didn't say I wanted to hear something that was not serious. What's in someone's little head?"

She really wants to tear his mouth off now, why is he so cheap?How about the affectionate tenderness before?Once you get it, you start to reveal your true nature?

"That's fine, I'll tell you a story I created myself," Qiao Muli smiled slightly, "Once upon a time there was a big bad wolf who fell in love with a little white rabbit and tried to get her attention. But the little white rabbit always Thinking that the big bad wolf wanted to eat him, he ran away when he saw him.

The big bad wolf was very anxious, so he treated the little white rabbit with a gentle attitude.Little White Rabbit is simple, but also finds that Big Bad Wolf likes her very much. Every time he is about to be caught by the tiger, he is the one who appears in time, so she falls in love with Big Bad Wolf.

But this interracial love is not allowed by the whole forest. Carnivores and vegetarians are looking for the little white rabbit and the big bad wolf everywhere, and if they catch them, they will burn them together. "

Li Jing listened quietly, but Qiao Muli suddenly stopped talking, and couldn't help asking: "And then?"

"Then?" She deliberately regretted, "The two of them were caught and burned to death together. Who can beat a little white rabbit and a big bad wolf that lost its claws for her?"

His brows were gloomy, "Jojo, no, I believe in you, so please believe in me."

Qiao Muli frowned, "Of course I believe you."

**
When Jiang Xiu heard the news that Li Jing was about to quit the student union, he was shocked: "Why?"

Li Jing said lazily: "Because the department stipulates that colleagues cannot fall in love."

"What?" Jiang Xiu stood up abruptly, "You and junior sister Mu Li...?"

He seemed to hear the voice of his own heartbreak. First, the goodwill towards Qiao Muli was completely stifled, and second, the student union was about to lose such an outstanding talent.

"Well, so for the department's rules."

Li Jing understands Qiao Muli's competitive nature, and she will definitely run for the position of president in her sophomore year.If he is affected by this regulation, he will blame himself for it.

Jiang Xiu hooked his shoulder, and there was no one around, lowered his voice and said: "Senior, can I ask you one thing?"

"You want me to stay and hide my relationship with Qiao Qiao?"

"exactly!"

Li Jing did not immediately refute, "I have to ask her opinion first."

Jiang Xiu almost knelt down for him, "Please, Junior Li Jing, the student union can't miss an elite like you!"

**
Hearing Li Jing's message, Qiao Muli raised his eyebrows slightly, "I thought you would refuse directly, after all, if you want to stay in the student union, you have to hide by my side for half a year."

"What is there no name or score?"

He deliberately hooked her hand under the table, she looked around nervously, and quickly retracted the moment her fingertips touched, and said angrily, "What are you doing?"

"I know the answer from your reaction," Li Jing lowered his eyes, his voice was loose, "Then I'll stay."

Qiao Muli's heart tightened, "Li Jing..."

"I've been waiting for three and a half years, and I don't mind another six months," he said casually, and threw a piece of lion's head into her bowl. "It's quite exciting to play underground."

"Then I quit the student union..."

Before she finished speaking, Li Jing raised his eyes, "Qiao Qiao, there's no need to sacrifice for me, I know you want to run for the position of future president."

Qiao Muli's heart trembled, "But you also sacrificed for me."

He raised his hand, subconsciously trying to touch her hair, but realized that it was in the cafeteria, so he let it hang down again.

"It's okay," Li Jingman smiled nonchalantly, "Who made me like you more?"

He held the chopsticks between his index and middle fingers, and turned them casually, "Besides, who can guarantee that there is no one from your grandpa in the school who will reveal our relationship to him?"

Qiao Muli curled up holding the spoon, "Li Jing, I'm not afraid."

"But I'm afraid," Li Jing raised his eyelids, his unruly peach eyes were full of seriousness, "I'm afraid that I can't give you peace now."

She was stung by his eyes, "it's not fair to you and me to keep it secret."

"Qiao Qiao, I'm not someone who is easily satisfied," he twitched his eyelashes slightly, "Just standing by your side is not enough, I will try my best to get the approval of your closest people."

The atmosphere became heavy, and Qiao Muli felt that even the food was starting to become tasteless.

She quickly took two mouthfuls of rice, and the phone in her pocket began to vibrate.

Qiao Muli glanced at the phone screen, it was the person in charge of the photo contest who had contacted her before.

"Hello."

"Miss Qiao, the results of this photo contest will be officially announced in three days. We are now inviting you to attend the awards ceremony. Are you free?"

She switched to the background to look at the calendar, and it happened to be Saturday three days later, "Yes, please send me the specific time and address at that time."

"Okay, I'll let you know with a text message later."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Muli did receive a text message with the time and location.

"Li Jing, I have an event to attend on Saturday, will you go with me?"

He replied without any hesitation: "Okay."

Tian Zhiyin also received a call from the person in charge, and she began to look forward to it with excitement.

Qiao Muli returned to the dormitory and saw her looking through the closet for clothes and gesticulating on her body.

"Muli, are you back?"

Unexpectedly, she greeted him so enthusiastically, Qiao Muli was stunned for a moment, then nodded coldly: "Yes."

The smile on Tian Zhiyin's face never faded, and he even took some clothes and asked her which one looked better.

Heh, neither one suits you.Qiao Muli sneered in his heart, you won't be able to laugh when the time comes.

Pan Zheng and Ding Ran were puzzled by Tian Zhiyin's sudden enthusiastic behavior, and after she went out, they asked what was going on.

"She stole my picture to enter a photo contest."

Ding Ran was very angry, "Why is this person so disgusting?"

Seeing Qiao Muli's calm expression, Pan Zheng knew she was prepared, "So how did you handle it?"

"Didn't she always want to discredit me before? Then I will let her experience it." She curved her lips and smiled, her fair face looked innocent, "I am not a soft persimmon."

**
A lot of people came to the awards ceremony of the photography competition. They gathered students from various schools in City A, and everyone held a serial number plate in their hands.

Qiao Muli wore a low-key black dress, holding the number 77 in her hand, and Li Jing who was beside her was forced by her to change into a formal dress.

"Didn't it mean ordinary events? Why do you have to dress so formally?"

She was mysterious: "I'll give you a surprise in a while, don't be too moved."

Li Jing raised his eyebrows, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

Qiao Muli waited for the opening time, casually looked around the arena, and found many familiar faces.

"It seems that there are quite a few people in our school."

He took a sip of the red wine in his glass, "Your cheeky roommate is here too."

Following his line of sight, he really saw Tian Zhiyin in the corner.She wore an ill-fitting champagne-colored dress, took off thick black-rimmed glasses, and covered a lot of foundation on her face, which was much whiter than usual.

Li Jing glanced at it, "The clothes belong to you, right?"

"I said, why does it look familiar?" Qiao Muli frowned in disgust, "The clothes I don't remember should only be worn once, how do you remember?"

"I remember everything about you clearly." He put the wine glass against her mouth, "Take a sip?"

Although she didn't drink, she still took a sip.After drinking the red wine, a burning sensation suddenly rose in the stomach.

"This alcohol content seems to be a bit high..."

Qiao Muli's face immediately turned red.

"You really don't drink well," Li Jing raised his eyebrows, "Have another sip?"

"If you didn't let me drink it, I wouldn't drink it," she took a few more sips, "it seems to taste good?"

He wanted to tease her, but he didn't expect her to drink too much, "Qiao Qiao, I can't drink anymore, what if you come on stage later?"

"Although I think I did a good job, I shouldn't be able to win the prize, right?" Qiao Muli hiccupped, his fair cheeks flushed.

The lights on the stage suddenly turned on, and the host blew on the microphone and began to speak.

"Welcome everyone to the awarding venue of our 'Time' themed photography contest. All of you here are one hundred outstanding participants after our selection. And the three final winners will be selected among you. Next Come down, let us appreciate your works together."

The work was shown in rotation on the big screen, and everyone in the audience was appreciating it carefully, making exclamation sounds from time to time.

Qiao Muli's work flashed by, but Li Jing still saw it.

"You secretly photographed me?"

"Do you know what I named this photo?" She looked up at him, her eyes sparkling, her face flushed from drinking, "God."

His heartstrings were gently plucked, and his voice was a little hoarse: "It is indeed... a surprise."

"Okay, everyone must have seen everyone's works, and they know it well, then the top three works will be announced next."

"No.3 is "Back View" by Zhu Ling on the 25th."

The spotlight fell directly on a girl in a plaid shirt and glasses, and she came on stage in surprise.

"Thank you to the organizer for giving me this opportunity. The protagonist of this photo is my grandma..." She told the story of taking the photo, and everyone in the audience couldn't help crying.

"Thank you very much for Ms. Zhu Ling's sharing. We will announce the No.2 winner-"Sunrise" by Wang Fei on the 68th."

No.2 was so excited that he burst into tears, and went on stage while wiping his tears. The host kept comforting him.

After finally waiting for him to finish his acceptance speech, the host wiped off his sweat.

"The final highlight is the No.1 grand prize! But this time we won't announce whose work it is," the host smiled mysteriously, "Please watch the big screen."

A photo of the flower sea in the evening immediately appeared on the screen. The person in the photo squatted down and held a flower, and the picture was frozen at this moment.

There was an exclamation from the audience.

"The angle of view and the light are simply amazing!"

"The profile of this person looks familiar."

"Wait, isn't this Li Jing?"

"Wow, really! Who took the picture?"

Tian Zhiyin clutched her skirt nervously, her expression excited, is she actually No.1?

Fortunately, she had memorized her acceptance speech online before, and she was ready to go on stage.

Qiao Muli smiled coldly, looking forward to a good show.

"The author of this work "God" will be announced next!" The host pretended to be surprised when the number appeared on the screen, "Hey, there are actually two numbers! It's 77 and 55!"

"It means that two people submitted the same photo?"

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect someone to play such a dirty game?"

Tian Zhiyin began to feel uneasy when he heard the discussions of people around him.

Why are there the same photos?Could it be that Qiao Muli also participated in this competition?

She looked around, and finally found Qiao Muli in the corner, with Li Jing standing beside him.

Tian Zhiyin was in a bad mood, and was about to flee the scene in the next second, but the light had already shone on her.

"That's player number 55! Let's see where player number 77 is?"

Qiao Muli put on the black veil hat that he had prepared in advance, and made Li Jing step back to avoid the light from shining on him.

"Number 77 is this lady! Let's have two ladies on stage together!"

Tian Zhiyin had no way out, so he could only bite the bullet and go on stage.

The host smiled: "Can Miss Tian Zhiyin tell you about the origin of your work?"

She hesitated for a long time, and was so flustered that she forgot the lines she had memorized in advance, "I..."

"I can't tell," Qiao Muli mocked, "because it's a photo you stole."

Tian Zhiyin knew that the person next to her was Qiao Muli, but she didn't have the courage to recognize her face to face, so she had to force herself to argue: "You... What evidence do you have? I submitted this photo first according to the serial number!"

Qiao Muli looked at the host, "Could you please release the time when the original picture on the phone was taken?"

What the host likes to watch most is the exciting part of revealing the truth, and he replied: "Okay, no problem."

With the release of the screenshots and the comparison of the time when Wada Zhiyin submitted the works, it is clear at a glance who copied who.

Facing the pointing and pointing from the audience, Tian Zhiyin suddenly felt ashamed and ran off the stage in a panic.

But the hem of the skirt was too long, so she stepped on the hem of the skirt in a hurry and fell hard.

"Haha, how funny!"

"This person is actually from our school, what a shame!"

The ridicule from the people around came like a flood, Tian Zhiyin struggled to get up, and ran away crying in shame.

The host turned his gaze back to Qiao Muli, "Miss No. 77, please give her acceptance speech."

"Actually, I don't know the person in this photo," she chose to hide her identity, "I just happened to see this scene when I was climbing a mountain. His serious appearance with flowers in his hands looks like a god descending from the sky. This is the work origin of name."

Some people speculated that the person who took the photo was a student of Western University, and there was even a bold guess that it was Qiao Muli.But this person said that he didn't know Li Jing, and the student from Western University dismissed this idea.

Li Jing stood in a dark corner, quietly looking at the people on the stage.

He knew the real reason she had named the painting.

It turns out that she is not only his salvation, in her eyes, he is also her god.

The news of Tian Zhiyin's embezzlement of other people's works for the competition spread throughout the forum, and the school specially asked her to come to the office to talk because this incident affected the reputation of Western University.

"Student Tian Zhiyin, do you know how much this incident has affected the school's reputation?"

When the counselor Liu Wen heard the news, she was so out of breath that she recited it, and was called to drink tea by the principal Du Yikang.

At this moment, Du Yikang was drinking tea slowly, watching how Liu Wen taught the students in his class.

Heh, dare to steal photos of his niece and daughter-in-law?What audacity.

Tian Zhiyin lowered her head and dared not speak.

"Although the school does not decide to expel you and give you the sanction of staying in school for probation, it does not mean that this matter is over." Liu Wen understood that Du Yikang's purpose for calling her here was to beat Tian Zhiyin severely, "You have to disclose Apologize."

Tian Zhiyin is the only one in the village who has been admitted to university, so she must not let this matter get out, she can only accept it. "I see."
