Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

On the last day of September, the new member welcome dinner of the Mu You Club was held in the internal restaurant on the rooftop of the apartment.

This batch of new members consisted of five people: Shi Shaoqi, Ye Zhuo, Qi Geng, Qian Sili, and Wei Shixu.

Yan Rong sat in themain seat and began, "First, let me introduce myself. I am Yan Rong, the deputy minister of Mu You, and also an alumnus from your school, currently a senior."

After the others introduced themselves, it was the new members' turn.

Xia Yun looked towards the corner seat and said, "Hey, you're Wei Shixu, the one who gained fame during military training, aren't you?"

Li Fei exclaimed, "You actually joined our club! Unbelievable!"

Yu Zetian also expressed curiosity, "Dude, you're really handsome! Better-looking than a star! I initially thought the rumors were exaggerated."

Wei Shixu's expression was calm as he asked, "Why didn't the minister come?"

Xia Yun quickly replied, "It's the minister's private matter, we shouldn't pry too much."

Wei Shixu remained silent.

Everyone was curious about him, especially the girls.

He ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‍was indeed very handsome, breathtakingly so. Just a glance was enough to make one's heart race.

Everyone gathered around him, chatting noisily.

Xia Yun said, "Wei Shixu, your WeChat profile picture is so beautiful. Is it a photo of the Golden Summit or of a girl?"

Wei Shixu answered, "The girl."

Yu Zetian added, "Yeah, the atmosphere in that picture is incredible, with golden light all around, though the face is a bit unclear."

Yan Rong asked, "When was it taken? It seems you haven't climbed it yet, have you?"

Wei Shixu replied, "Three years ago."

Yu Dong'er continued, "So, that girl is…"

Wei Shixu said, "My ex-girlfriend."

Xia Yun then asked, "Did you just break up with your ex-girlfriend?"

Wei Shixu answered, "We broke up a year ago."

Li Fei was surprised, "Hmm, you've been using her photo as your profile picture for a year after breaking up?"

Yu Zetian exclaimed in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be so dedicated! Was it your first love? How many times have you been in a relationship?"

Wei Shixu answered, "Once."

Yu Zetian said, "So it really was your first love!"

Xia Yun asked, "What was your ex-girlfriend like?"

Wei Shixu thought for a moment and said, "Pretty, rich, and fierce."

Everyone: "……"

Yan Rong glanced at his wrist and commented, "Nice bracelet."

Wei Shixu replied, "It's from my girlfriend, oh no, ex-girlfriend."

Yu Zetian slapped his forehead, "My god! What kind of romantic are you? You've been using her photo as your profile picture and wearing the bracelet she gave you even after a year of breaking up?"

Yan Rong smiled and said, "You lot don't know your stuff. This is top-grade agarwood, probably a rare piece as well."

Yu Zetian was surprised, "Really? How much is it worth?"

Wei Shixu answered, "A few million."

Everyone present gasped. Being members of an elite club, they usually had considerable pocket money and extravagant spending habits, but spending several million on a gift was still too extravagant.

Yu Zetian exclaimed, "No wonder you're wearing it; it's so expensive!"

Xia Yun commented, "Your ex-girlfriend is so generous; she just gave away a bracelet worth several million."

Li Fei said, "Her wealth level is comparable to that of our minister, isn't it?"

Yu Dong'er added, "And the deputy minister too."

Yan Rong felt something was off and frowned as he asked, "You wear such an expensive item with you? Given that you've broken up, have you thought about returning it to her?"

Wei Shixu casually replied, "It has medicinal properties."

Everyone: "……"

What kind of answer is that?

Yan Rong glanced at Wei Shixu again, feeling that something was off, and asked: "What’s hanging around your neck?"

Everyone was also curious, a copper coin with red and gold in perfect harmony, with raised characters on it, very unusual, none of them had ever seen it before.

Wei Shixu showed no intention of introducing it, covering it back under his clothes, not letting anyone see.

He merely said, "A birthday gift."

Yu Zetian suddenly found it funny and casually said, "Haha, wouldn't it be another gift from your ex-girlfriend?"

Wei Shixu nodded, "Yes, she gave it to me."

Everyone: "……"

Xia Yun curiously asked, "Wei Shixu, I've seen your profile, your birthday is coming up soon! You'll be turning twenty in two months, why are you only a freshman?"

Wei Shixu answered, "I repeated a year."

Xia Yun said, "Repeating a year and getting into our university is quite impressive, didn't do well last year?"

Wei Shixu replied, "Better than this year."

Li Fei was surprised, "Ah? Which university did you get into last year?"

Wei Shixu said, "Peking University."

Silence——

The entire restaurant fell silent, everyone looking at each other, not knowing how to respond to that.

Dude, you don't need to brag like that!

Several new members were even more shocked looking at Wei Shixu, unable to understand why he would brag like that?

He wasn't acting strange before, was he?

Yu Zetian tried to liven up the atmosphere, "Today's chef personally cooked, it's delicious!"

Li Fei also quickly added, "Yes, Chef Ma Xinwei personally prepared the dishes, it's a rare opportunity!"

Everyone chattered, quickly moving past the awkward moment.

Yan Rong stood up, "Alright, let's all have a toast together."

Everyone raised their glasses.@@novelbin@@

Wei Shixu held a glass of plain water.

Xia Yun commented, "You're so cute, did your ex-girlfriend not let you drink?"

Wei Shixu smiled but didn't speak.

It was a slightly distant smile, also the first smile during this banquet.

He found these people's questions so numerous and dull.

He had no interest in continuing the conversation, the dinner was almost over, yet she hadn't shown up.

Several girls were dazzled by this smile, exchanging glances and raising their eyebrows.

That smile…

There was something about it.

It was like a casual glance from above.

Carried a kind of detached boredom, and something inexplicably… seductive!

No wonder his ex-girlfriend was so enamored, giving away expensive gifts worth several million without hesitation.

Quan Zhisui had already returned to the martial arts gym, which was far from the school.

On the first day of the holiday, Quan Zhisui set off alone for the Golden Summit.

Every weekend, this place was crowded with people, and the path up the mountain was always crowded.

She wore a black T-shirt and black trousers, even her sports shoes were black, her long hair loosely tied into a ponytail.

She set off for the mountain with minimal gear.

She climbed very slowly, stopping frequently to look around at the mountain scenery.

Sometimes, she would find a spot to sit and gaze into space, for a long while.

By the time she reached the top, it was already noon.

She stepped onto the steps, looking up at the Golden Summit.

But on the steps, she saw someone.

There were many people here, but inexplicably, she instantly spotted that one.

A boy? A man?

She wasn't sure; he was facing away from her.

He was wearing a white T-shirt and light-colored trousers, with a pair of white sports shoes, and a baseball cap.

He looked very casual.

A completely opposite color scheme to Quan Zhisui.

He stood on the highest step, also looking up at the Golden Summit, the sunlight shining on him, casting a faint golden glow.

His presence was so pure…

Yet he wasn't a good-natured person, he wasn't simple, even a bit bad?

The front of the white T-shirt was a magnificent view of the summit, with strong color contrast between red and gold!

Quan Zhisui suddenly felt this scene was very intriguing, and so was this person, so she took out her phone and snapped a photo.

The moment she put down her phone, he turned around.

The movement wasn't big.

Yet it caused the pendant hanging around his neck to swing.

It was a…
