On the way to the school, Xie Yang would look at Qiu Xing’s hair from time to time. He wanted to reach out and see if ‘hair’ would be lost if he touched it.

Qiu Xing noticed Xie Yang’s small gestures when Xie Yang started to ‘peek’ and adjusted his sitting posture. Finally, he chose the one that he felt was the most handsome. He held his mobile phone in one hand to read company emails while grasping Xie Yang’s hand with the other. He asked without raising his head, “Nervous?” 

“Nervous?”

Xie Yang’s senses returned and he realized what Qiu Xing was asking. Seeing Qiu Xing’s apparent unawareness of his hair loss, he took a few seconds to reply. “A bit.”

He decided to be kind. Once the graduation ceremony was over, he would remind Qiu Xing of the cruel matter of hair loss. Qiu Xing squeezed Xie Yang’s hand when he heard this and appeased like a parent. “Don’t worry, it’s just a graduation ceremony. There is nothing to be nervous about.”

Xie Yang looked at Qiu Xing holding his hand and pretended not to notice that Qiu Xing’s hand was sweating and that he hadn’t turned a page of the email for a long time. Xie Yang wondered, “Are you nervous?” 

Qiu Xing smiled and scoffed dismissively. “Only children would be nervous about attending such a small event.”

Okay, Child Qiu.

Once they were 10 minutes away from C University, Qiu Xing finally put down his phone. He thought his reflection in the car window was shining and changed his posture. “It is just a small graduation ceremony. There is no need to be so formal.”

Xie Yang glanced sideways at Qiu Xing and cooperated. “No?”

Qiu Xing put on a calm and domineering expression. “No, after all, it is a relatively simple occasion. It is good to dress casually. Look at this brooch—”

Xie Yang couldn’t hold back. He reached out and grabbed Qiu Xing’s hair.

Qiu Xing immediately sat up, straightened his back and glanced sideways with a frown. “What are you doing?”

“A strand of hair rose.” Xie Yang spoke nonsense and moved his fingers, silently dropping the few hairs into the gap in the car seat. Then he changed the subject. “I think you are very handsome today. You don’t look too grand or too frivolous. It is just right.” 

Qiu Xing was distracted. He tried to suppress the corners of his mouth rising up and glanced at the watch on his wrist. “Is it?”

Xie Yang replied, “Yes.”

Qiu Xing scoffed and leaned back in his chair. He no longer picked at his own clothes and held the mobile phone again.

Qiu Xing opened his mouth again when they were five minutes away from C University. “Will there be a lot of media at C University’s graduation ceremony?” 

Xie Yang replied, “In fact, there aren’t many. The school only allows a few formal invited media to enter the school. Tabloids and various paparazzi aren’t allowed.”

Qiu Xing calmed down.

Two minutes later, the outline of C University appeared in their Field of view. Qiu Xing sat up and straighten his coat.
