Chapter 1: Chance Encounters

Next Chapter

Xia Yao would never have thought that today would be a major turning point in her life, and it wasn't until a few years later that she realized that this day was so memorable. Of course, that's all for later.

If Xia Yao's sixth sense could be a little more sensitive, or that she could care about her image like most other girls, then she wouldn't have taken out the nearest white sweatshirt from her closet and put it on her head today, nor would she just apply sunscreen without any modifications. It's a pity that it's not big, then it's not Xia Yao.

It was still a little cold at seven o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles, Xia Yao spread out her long hair and put on her hat, and hurried to the café near the apartment.

Don't look at her getting up and going out so early, Xia Yao is definitely not the energetic type, she can't wake up all day without a cup of coffee in the morning. Her biological clock has always been regular, sleepy at eleven o'clock in the evening, and she opens her eyes on time at six o'clock in the morning, in her own words: too animal.

With a hot medium cup of American in hand, she chose a corner to sit down by the window, pulled out her computer and got to work. She is now in her third year of college and in her third year in Los Angeles, and although the pace of studying at an American university is intense, she has been honing for so long, no matter how nervous she is, she has been able to cope with it easily.

She covered her mouth and yawned, took a sip of her still hot coffee, and continued to revise the paper she had just finished last night.

The sun has risen, and in Los Angeles, the power of the newborn sun is difficult to underestimate, Xia Yao took off her hat, knowing that her hair was like a bird's nest, and she should sort it out after grabbing it hastily, focusing on the paper, and continued to type on the keyboard. The pink and slender fingers dance on the keyboard, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Suddenly, there was a shadow, accompanied by a crisp smell, Xia Yao looked up, and saw a tall man dressed in black from head to toe, the cap and sweatshirt hat made it impossible to see his face clearly, and the high nose bridge and sharp jawline were particularly eye-catching.

Don't stare at the other party when you can't be sure if the other party is looking at you, this is one of Xia Yao's guidelines. So she quickly turned her gaze back to the paper. But after all, she was distracted, and the man sat down beside her.

The single and double tables in the café are small round tables, the distance between the tables is not large, and the chairs are also close together, so this crisp smell lingers on Xia Yao's nose. She caught a glimpse of him as a medium-sized American, only on ice.

The man is cool, and he can drink ice unscrupulously, she thought to herself. If it weren't for the fact that she was worried that her aunt would die of pain in the past few days, Xia Yao would not want to order hot coffee, and now she is waiting for it to warm up.

The man sat on Xia Yao's right with coffee in his left hand, and Xia Yao's coffee was also placed on his right hand. She stared intently at her paper, reached for her coffee and took another sip, it was still slightly hot, and as she put it back in place she caught a glimpse of the ring on his left index finger, her heart skipping a beat.

This is a limited edition pair of Cartier rings, and if memory serves, there are only ten pairs in the world. Xia Yao is not a person who is very interested in luxury, this kind of thing that constantly tests the boundaries of her economic ability and will raise her taste without a bottom line makes Xia Yao always struggle to consume rationally, as for the reason why this pair of rings impressed her so much, she recognized it at a glance like an old friend, it was because of the owner of this ring - Ouyang Xun, a rapper who was red to purple in Asia at that time.

Before being "poisoned" by American universities, Xia Yao was also a star-chasing girl with strong blood, and it is no exaggeration to say that she gave her entire youth to Ouyang Xun.

Ouyang Xun debuted when she was in the fourth grade of primary school, at that time she had just learned how to use a computer, and the Walkman had only just come out, Xia Yao was not so blessed to be at the forefront of trends and technology.

I fell in love with Ouyang Xun when she was in the sixth grade, the computer slipped away, and she had her own Walkman, which was full of Ouyang Xun's songs, and she didn't download the works of other singers to show her loyalty.

This love is seven years, in addition to learning is chasing stars.

At other people's class reunions, she saw netizens sharing rooms to watch concerts; others quarreled and divided into small gangs because of trivial love, hatred, hatred, and hatred, and she tore up bi on the Internet to vote with the opponent and black fans; others fell in love with spring hearts, she shouted at Ouyang Jing's hard photos and videos; others saved money to buy cosmetics and dresses, and she saved money to grab concert tickets, buy albums, and buy peripherals.

Xia Yao's three years of junior high school were the three years of Ouyang Xun's career.

There are many talents in the music world, and the music style sought after by the public has also been updated, Ouyang Xun was not as popular as Xia Yao when he was in high school, but Xia Yao's enthusiasm has not diminished and his loyalty has not changed.

What made her have to fade her star-chasing career out of her life was the inhuman oppression of her by the American college training program, and she knew that she shouldn't have done her best to prepare for the SAT, and if she couldn't get Caltech, she at least had Ouyang Xun to chase. For her, it is clear that the latter is more important.

Let's talk about this ring, it was five years ago, the first time I appeared with Ouyang Xun at the airport. Sharp-eyed, she swiped the airport preview and found that he had an extra ring on his left index finger, but the more insightful army of fans immediately pulled it out and announced all the information about this ring with pictures and texts: this is Cartier's limited pair ring, only ten pairs in the world.

It doesn't matter if you are ten pairs or a pair, the ring is a taboo for fans! The index finger and ring finger are not important! This is equivalent to the official announcement that she has a girlfriend! The comment area was full of wailing and crying, and Xia Yao was no exception, she left tears with true feelings. In these years, chasing Xiao Xianrou is not a girlfriend fan, but also a mother fan?

Sad is sad, there is still something to do - that is, to find that woman! Because of this, Xia Yao can draw this pair of rings with her eyes closed.

According to these Sherlock Holmes "silk" reports, in addition to Ouyang Xun, there is also a middle-aged couple in Hong Kong and a couple in the mainland who bought the pair, and passers-by have found it, but Ouyang Xun's girlfriend has not been found so far. So who saved the galaxy, and who saved the galaxy?

The moment she caught a glimpse of the ring, the dream of chasing stars, which had been silent for nearly three years, was suddenly awakened! All kinds of speculations exploded in Xia Yao's mind, and her heart fluttered and wanted to jump out, and she kept using her afterglow to probe to find a chance to look at his face again.

“Excuse me, do you mind if I seat here?” A delicate-looking blonde boy stood in front of Xia Yao.

She looked around—there were still plenty of empty seats. Obviously, he's here to strike up a conversation. In the United States, if you can't see this routine for three years, it will be in vain, but it is very rude and disrespectful to refuse directly.

Xia Yao looked at the half-revised paper with a loving gaze, raised her head and replied with a smile: "Not at all." , and at the same time, he was thinking in his heart about how to quickly solve the little white face opposite.

The young man elegantly pulled out a chair and sat down, Xia Yao seized the opportunity to glance at him, who happened to look up at the young man, and almost knocked over the coffee, it was really Ouyang Xun!
