Liu Shuyao indeed had the energy, and they didn't have much time left, so it was better to complete the task and report back as soon as possible.
Almost immediately, the speaking rights in the small conference room fell into the hands of the campus belle.
“If we’re sure we’re using dynamic rotation animation, shouldn’t we determine the rotation angle and the animation duration now...?”
“And the style, right?”
While thinking, the campus belle rested her pen on her chin, her eyes revealing a hint of seriousness. Her long eyelashes cast a dense shadow, and she occasionally furrowed her brows. The lighting in the small conference room seemed to favor her, creating a lovely halo around her beautiful profile.
Xiang Ran felt a bit distracted again.
He thought he might be a bit of an intellectual romantic; every time the campus belle focused on work, she appeared even more attractive.
“If it’s an automatic rotation, can we do that effect?”
“Sure.”
The chubby guy responded to the campus belle’s question.
“Is it complicated to implement? Can it be done with CSS? I haven’t looked into this.”
“Both setInterval and CSS keyframe animations can work.”
“Hmm, that’s good.”
“Does adding this animation effect have any requirements for browsers? Do we need to ensure compatibility?”
“Yes, we will need to pay attention to that.”
“...”
Later, the campus belle and the chubby guy discussed other matters, while Xiang Ran and Han Lele remained silent throughout.
One was completely lost, in a state of confusion,
As for the other one...
“Ran, do you think this design is okay?”
The chubby guy turned to ask Xiang Ran for his opinion.
Alright~
The other one just let everything go in one ear and out the other, thinking it didn't seem like there were any major issues. After all, based on his recent observations of the campus belle, she would likely have the chubby guy revise the details.
So, Han Lele stared at Xiang Ran, while Xiang Ran’s eyes were on the campus belle.
He said something similar to what Teacher Wu would say:
“We should listen to Liu Shuyao.”
...
“Alright!”
“I’ve now realized that the campus belle is the one calling the shots in our team!”
“Awesome!”
The chubby guy concluded with a final remark.
Liu Shuyao felt a bit embarrassed, covering most of her face with a piece of paper from the table, leaving only her big eyes visible, her eyelashes fluttering. She dropped her serious tone from earlier when discussing work and returned to a softer demeanor, elongating her last syllable:
“No, no~ We still need to listen to Xiang Ran.”
“Hahaha.”
“Since we’ve finished discussing everything, let’s go eat.”
The chubby guy rubbed his belly, feeling quite hungry.
At this point, Han Lele, who had been sitting nearby, finally nodded. She had been unable to sit still; this meeting was just too boring.
“Senior, how about we eat together tonight?”
Han Lele boldly made her move, looking at Xiang Ran.
Unfortunately, Xiang Ran was still focused on his notebook, missing Han Lele’s intent, while the chubby guy readily agreed.
“Sure, it’s more lively with everyone together.”
Han Lele was thrilled to hear this and began discussing with the chubby guy about which dining hall to go to.
Then, they heard the campus belle’s voice:
“Why don’t you two go eat first?”
“I want to confirm a few requirements with Xiang Ran. There are a few points I’m a bit confused about.”
“Is that okay?”
After Liu Shuyao said this, fearing her boyfriend would disagree, she lightly bit her lower lip and looked at Xiang Ran with pleading eyes, her fingertips nervously clutching the table, tinged with a faint blush.
“Sure.”
Xiang Ran nodded without hesitation.
Since it was a big screen matter, the chubby guy wondered if he should listen in as well?
But before he could say anything, his stomach rumbled loudly in the quiet small conference room.
“Ah... this...”
Even though the chubby guy usually had a carefree attitude, he felt a bit embarrassed this time.
Fortunately, the campus belle was quite understanding. She stood up and sat beside Xiang Ran, playfully telling the chubby guy to go ahead.
“Alright! Food is the priority!”
“We all understand!”
Only then did the chubby guy leave, and while Han Lele was a bit reluctant, she preferred eating in the dining hall over listening to all the complicated stuff, so she followed along.
...
Now, only Xiang Ran and the campus belle were left in the small conference room.
“Is there anything you need to confirm...”
Just as the chubby guy closed the door, Xiang Ran hadn’t finished his sentence.
He suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder and instinctively straightened his back, feeling a bit stiff...
“I’m so tired~”
Liu Shuyao rested her head on her boyfriend’s shoulder, her voice soft and a bit whiny.
“I rushed over here as soon as I finished the homework assigned by the teacher this afternoon~”
A few strands of her hair brushed against Xiang Ran’s palm, tickling him a little.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t check on your recent academic situation first.”
Xiang Ran immediately reflected on himself.
His apology was sincere.
Instead, Liu Shuyao felt a bit confused by his rigid behavior.
Why was her boyfriend so unromantic?
Couldn’t he be a little more flirtatious?
Unbeknownst to Liu Shuyao, at this moment, Xiang Ran was already struggling to hold it together, just pretending to be calm.
Feeling awkward, Liu Shuyao couldn’t continue leaning on Xiang Ran’s shoulder, so she straightened up to look at him.
After rubbing against her boyfriend’s shoulder, her hair had gotten a bit messy, with some strands falling beside her eyes. The ends of her eyelashes, already soft and gentle, were now tickled by her hair, causing her to scrunch up her small face and shake her head, but it didn’t help.
Her face wore a pitiful expression, resembling a feisty little kitten.
Seeing this, Xiang Ran couldn’t help but chuckle.
Then, as if drawn by some unseen force, he reached out to help the campus belle fix her hair.
Xiang Ran’s slightly cool fingertips brushed against Liu Shuyao’s forehead, and he watched as her milk-white, smooth skin instantly flushed with a soft pink, gradually spreading from her cheeks to behind her ears.
Her eyes, which had been somewhat anxious just moments ago, now glistened with moisture, looking dazed and vulnerable.
The warm yellow light suddenly became ambiguous.
The campus belle seemed taken aback, a bit flustered as she bit her lip.
She watched him nervously and expectantly for his next move...
However, after a moment of waiting, her boyfriend showed no further actions.
Feeling unsatisfied, Liu Shuyao tilted her small face forward again, making a muffled sound.
“Hmm?”
...
Looking at her like this, Xiang Ran swallowed hard and turned his head away.
“You.”
“Do you still have any requirements to confirm?”
“There are indeed a few small issues, but I’m not in a hurry~”
“I actually just want to spend a little more time with you~”
Seeing her boyfriend getting back to business, Liu Shuyao had to tell the truth.
“Then how about we go eat first? We can talk while we walk.”
Xiang Ran felt that the small conference room was too stuffy; the scent of cedar from Liu Shuyao enveloped him, making him a bit weak.
“Okay~”
It seemed there were no further developments, and Liu Shuyao sounded a bit deflated.
