Wu Siyi didn’t expect Anya to ask such a question. She blushed and quickly said, “I definitely have friends.”

Anya looked into her eyes until her palms were sweating. Then, she nodded indifferently and walked around her to continue walking.

Wu Siyi stared at Anya. A dark glint flashed across her eyes as she quietly continued following her.

Anya knew the girl was following her. She had planned to meet up with Roundy, but she wasn’t in a hurry. She turned around and walked towards one of the colleges.

Unexpectedly, not long after they left, another group of people riding bicycles came over.

Anya looked at the bike and was about to move aside when a raised voice came from behind. “Student, be careful.”

Then, her body was knocked into.

A bike that was originally riding just fine slammed into Wu Siyi.

“Ah…”

Anya: “…”

She felt that she had seen many people with all kinds of personalities. This was the first time she had seen someone with such a strong urge to impress her.

She looked at Wu Siyi, who had fallen to the ground and was being helped up by that classmate. She said to her, “Don’t blame this classmate who bumped into you. She’s probably in a hurry.”

Wu Siyi nodded at her with tears in her eyes. After standing up, she said to the girl who bumped into her, “Student, I don’t blame you. Go to class.”

The girl wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she turned to look at Anya with a glint in her eyes.

Anya smiled at her. “Student, go to class.”

The girl left with her companion.

Anya looked at Wu Siyi, who was enduring the pain, and said to her, “Are you okay? I’m going to buy something and then go to Crescent Lake. Do you want to go with me?”

It was obvious that this girl had a motive in getting close to her. Moreover, everyone looked at her strangely. Anya was interested to see what this girl wanted to do.

As expected, Wu Siyi retracted the tears in her eyes and nodded at her with a hint of surprise that she wanted to hide but couldn’t.

The two of them walked towards Crescent Lake.

Wu Siyi said to her as she walked, “It’s a little far from Crescent Lake. Why don’t we ride a bike over?”

Anya wanted to save face. Other than being in front of Chu Luo, she wouldn’t expose her shortcomings. She said seriously, “I want to see the scenery of Imperial University. I don’t feel that way on a bike.”

“That’s true.” Wu Siyi immediately believed her. She thought for a while and said, “Why don’t we take a shortcut? There’s a shortcut over there.”

“Sure.”

The two of them took a shortcut and walked closer to the road. As they walked, Anya thought, ‘I wonder if Roundy will come looking for me when he doesn’t see me.’

At this moment, Wu Siyi asked in a casual tone, “Student, which country are you from? I still don’t know your name.”

Anya replied casually, “My name is Anya. I’m from America.”

“Is that so?” Wu Siyi’s eyes lit up and she said something about how nice and easy-going people from America were. In the end, she asked, “I wonder which university you’re studying at in America. Are you here to study abroad or as an exchange student?”

Anya replied, “S University, exchange student.”

“Wow! Anya, you’re amazing. S University in America is one of the top three universities in the world. My goal is to go there to further my studies one day.”

Anya glanced at her and said, “You’re ambitious. Good luck!”

Wu Siyi smiled shyly and looked forward to it. She clenched her fists and cheered herself on. “I’ll work hard.”

She then asked, “Anya, are you a graduate student? What specialization did you enroll in?”

“The Imperial language specialization, of course. I’m very interested in the Imperial language.”

“Is that so?” Wu Siyi bit her lips and recommended herself. “Before I went to university, my Imperial language was basically around 140. If you want to learn, I can teach you.”

Anya looked at her.

Wu Siyi felt a little uneasy being stared at. She subconsciously clenched her fists. “Of course I can’t compare to Chu Luo, who scored full marks for the exam. It’s best if you ask her to teach you.”

“You’re right.” Anya looked at her and nodded. When disappointment flashed across her eyes, she said,” But Chu said that she’s especially busy and doesn’t have time to teach me… It’s already amazing that you can score around 140 every time.”

Wu Siyi smiled in embarrassment.

The two of them walked for about 20 minutes before they finally saw the lake that was shaped like a crescent moon. It was glowing charmingly under the sunlight.

Anya took a few steps quickly and walked out of the forest path. She looked at the lake and sighed. “Imperial University’s Crescent Lake World indeed lives up to its name.”

Wu Siyi looked at Anya and her eyes flickered. She said, “The scenery around the pavilion in the middle of the lake is even more beautiful.”

In the middle of the widest lake in Crescent Lake was an ancient looking building. Connecting the looking building was a wooden bridge more than a meter wide. The wooden bridge was very long and was deliberately built in a curved manner. Just looking at it made people want to walk up.

Anya started walking forward. “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go now.”

“But…”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Anya glanced at Wu Siyi, who was hesitating to speak, and walked towards the wooden bridge entrance.

Just as she was about to reach the wooden bridge, Anya suddenly received a call from Chu Luo.

Chu Luo said unhappily, “Roundy is still waiting for you there. Where did you go?”

Since Chu Luo wasn’t physically present, Anya didn’t bother to be agreeable. She said directly, “I’ve already found a guide. I don’t need his company anymore.”

Chu Luo guessed where she went and reminded her, “You can go to Crescent Lake with someone, but the observation platform in the middle of the lake is undergoing maintenance. A few of the railings have been removed. Don’t go up there. I won’t save you if you fall into the lake.”

With that, she hung up.

Anya took a deep breath and couldn’t help but mutter, “So not adorable!”

“Anya, was it Chu Luo who called?”

Anya looked at Wu Siyi in displeasure and exuded the aura of a princess.

Wu Siyi’s face turned pale.

At this moment, Anya retracted her aura and said with a smile, “No, it’s a friend from my country. She asks me every day if Imperial University is fun. I’m so annoyed.”

Wu Siyi heaved a sigh of relief in her heart and said with a smile, “Why don’t you take more photos and send them to her later? Take photos in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The surrounding scenery is especially beautiful.”

“Sure.”

The two of them continued walking over.

Just as she was about to reach the entrance of the corridor, Wu Siyi saw the warning sign. She quickly walked over and blocked Anya’s view. She raised her hand and gestured for Anya to enter.

Anya glanced at her and walked towards the wooden bridge.

Wu Siyi forcefully ripped off the sign behind her and followed.

“Isn’t it especially idyllic walking on such a wooden bridge?”

“Yeah.”

Anya didn’t take out her phone to take a photo. Instead, she strode forward.

Wu Siyi followed behind her, a dark glint flickering across her eyes.

The two of them quickly walked to the observation platform in the middle of the lake.

This observation platform was a two-story wooden building with a platform a few meters wide on the lower floor.

Seeing that the railing on several platforms had disappeared, Anya asked Wu Siyi, “Is this place being repaired?”

After saying that, she asked in a strange tone, “Since it’s undergoing maintenance, why didn’t they place a warning sign?”

Wu Siyi guessed, “Maybe the wind blew off the sign. Why don’t we go back to the shore? What if we fall into the lake? The lake water must be very cold now.”

“Since we’re already here, let’s take a look at the scenery first.”

With that, Anya walked towards the stairs.

Wu Siyi didn’t follow her.

Anya went upstairs and looked at Wu Siyi, who was standing there staring at the lake in a daze. She wondered what this girl wanted.

Wu Siyi was planning how to let Anya fall into the lake accidentally and then save her.

As long as she could save her, Anya would definitely be grateful to her.

Wu Siyi had always fantasized about being the lost princess of a certain country, so she had memorized all the members of the royal families in the various countries. If she wasn’t mistaken, Anya should be the royal princess of America.

At the thought of this, Wu Siyi looked up and smiled at Anya. “Anya, why don’t I take a few photos of you?”

Anya nodded. “Alright.”

After saying that, she still didn’t take out her phone and said, “Use your phone to take a photo for me. My phone is running out of battery. Chu will call me later.”

“Okay.” Wu Siyi didn’t come up after answering. She bit her lips and said in embarrassment, “Can you come down? I’m a little afraid of heights.”

Anya cooperatively went down the stairs.

Anya started getting Wu Siyi to take photos of her. As she did so, she said, “Make them prettier. Send them to me later.”

“Okay… walk over there a little. Otherwise, it’ll block a view on the shore… Yes, walk a little further.”

The two of them took photos for a while. Wu Siyi suddenly said to Anya in surprise, “Wow, Anya, there are so many koi in the water behind you.”

Anya subconsciously turned around.

She heard rapid footsteps behind her.

Anya smiled coldly.
