TL: Etude
In high school, friendships often struggle to survive into college, uhe friends are close by or attend the same uy.
However, during the udent orientation period, many feel awkward and out of pce. After all, cssmates e from all ers of the try, bringing with them various ats and lifestyles.
Therefore, many freshmen find fort in their high school friends, and visits between schools are most on during this time.
Thus, on the first weekend of military training, Qin Zi’ang, Yu Shasha, Zhao Lu, Ma Bolong, and Qu Shaog all visited Lin Uy.
Qin Zi’ang was there to court Chu Siqi, while Yu Shasha naturally came to hang out with her girlfriends.
Zhao Lu, Ma Bolong, and Qu Shaog came out of curiosity, wanting to experiehe atmosphere of a major uy.
As hosts, Wang Huiru and Chu Siqi were eager to eaihey had inally booked a private room at Nanshaaurant, but Yu Shasha insisted on the unique experience of outdoor dining, so they ended up at Shiwei Tian’s outdoor stir-fry.
However, Chu Siqi seemed disied.
Qin Zi’ang tried to strike up a versation with her several times, but she seemed not to hear, g the usual joy of a friend’s visit, as if weighed down by heavy thoughts.
“Siqi doesn’t seem very happy, does she?” Yu Shasha remarked, puzzled.
Wang Huiru sighed, “It’s been several days like this.”
“Why?”
“What else but Jiang Qin?”
Yu Shasha was surprised, “She hasn’t gotten over Jiang Qin? Didn’t they delete each other on QQ? And they’re not even on the same campus.”
Wang Huiru gestured for silence, “Shh, let’s not talk about it, or Siqi wo again today.”
Yu Shasha found it unbelievable.
Chu Siqi, the proud and aloof queen, who lived for her own feelings and rarely cared about anyone else, was now so affected by a boy that she couldn’t eve.
Jiang Qin, you’re indeed being more and more of a male idol.
“I remember Jiang Qin is also at Lin, right? And Guo Zihan isn’t far either. Why didn’t they e?”
Qu Shaog looked around and couldn’t help but ask.
Ma Bolong looked at him disdainfully, “Are you kidding? Jiang Qin fessed to Chu Siqi and was rejected. How could he show his face?”
“I heard Jiang Qin made a lot of money over the summer. I was hopireat us!”
“Who knows if that’s true. I haven’t seen it, so I don’t believe it.”
Qin Zi’ang, hearing Jiang Qin’s name, quickly ged the subject, “Let’s order. Siqi, what would you like? I’ll order for you.”
“Anything’s fine, I’m not picky,” Chu Siqi replied listlessly.
“How about red braised mb chops? I remember you liked that at the graduation party.”
Zhao Lu g him, “Qin Zi’ang, are you treating us?”
“Why not? If I say I’m treating, then I am. I’m not short of money,” Qin Zi’ang boasted proudly.
Wang Huiru quickly interrupted, “You’re visiting us at Lin, so we should be treating you.”
Yu Shasha giggled, “Qin Zi’ang’s iions aren’t on the meal, but on someone special. o be polite with him.”
Grateful for Yu Shasha’s assist, Qin Zi’ang asked, “Shasha, what do you like? I’ll order more.”
“I’m easy too. Ask Siqi instead. I don’t need your favor.”
“Heh heh.”
As they spoke, a stunning girl suddenly appeared. On seeing them, she hesitated, her footsteps pausing.
Simultaneously, Wang Huiru noticed her too. They locked eyes, both wearing inexplicably odd expressions.
“Huiru, you’re here too.”
“Yes, you here to eat?”
“Yes, meeting a senior from my department to discuss something.”
Hong Yan wore a Nile-colored dress, her fair, glowing skin and long, exposed legs standing out beh the hem. She stood gracefully, instantly capturing everyone’s attention at the table.
After a brief exge, Hong Yan did not sit down, knowing she could o Chu Siqi, and so she left.
Regaining his senses, Qu Shaog blurted out, “Wang Huiru, who was that? She’s so attractive!”
“She’s… my roommate.”
“A beauty dormitory? My goodness, she’s on the same level as Goddess Chu!”
Chu Siqi’s expression soured, but she said nothing, pretending not to hear and tio wash the teaware.
Yu Shasha, sitting nearby, sensed something was amiss. If Hong Yan was Wang Huiru’s roommate, she should also be Chu Siqi’s. Why didn’t they greet each other?
Before Yu Shasha could inquire, Ma Bolong spoke up, “Wang Huiru, what’s your roommate’s QQ number?”
Qin Zi’ang scoffed, “Look at yourself, Ma. You think you stand a ce with a goddess like her?”
“What’s wrong with my looks? I have a fun soul!”
Smack—
Chu Siqi, visibly annoyed, smmed the ed chopsticks oable, muttered about going to the restroom, ahe group.
Seeing this, everyo the table exged gnces, clearly sensing something was wrong.
All eyes turo Wang Huiru.
“Huiru, is there bad blood between your roommate and Siqi?” Yu Shasha asked directly.
“Yes.”
“So soon after school started? That’s unusual.”
Wang Huiru sighed after a long silence, “Hong Yan wants to pursue Jiang Qin, but Siqi disagrees. They had a huge fight about it. Please don’t mention Hong Yan again.”
“Pursue Jiang Qin? You kidding, isn’t it the other way around?” Ma Bolong was incredulous.
“If Jiang Qin were pursuing Hong Yan, it wouldn’t have escated like this. They had a big argument over him a few days ago and haven’t spoken since.”
Qu Shaog was fbbergasted, “So, are Jiang Qin and Hong Yan together?”
Wang Huiru shook her head, “Jiang Qin said he’s not ied in dating, effectively rejeg Hong Yan.”
Hearing this, everyo the table gasped.
Pursued by a campus beauty, causing two beauties to quarrel, and he eveed her. What kind of male idol is this?
In just one summer, the gap between Jiang Qin and them had widehis much?
Yu Shasha, visualizing the se as described by Wang Huiru, couldn’t help but take out her phone and open QQ.
“Hey~”
“?”
“Male idol, I’m at Lin now. When will you treat me to a meal?”
At that moment, Jiang Qin, who had just left his dorm for the tea shop to discuss work with Su Nai, frow the ining message.
What was all this about?
Had Yu Shasha lost her mind?
“Senior? Did you hear what I just said?” Su Nai adjusted her gsses.
Jiang Qin snapped back, “Heard it. The promotion starts in three days. Keep an eye on the bad data for me.”
“Okay.”
Su Nai reached for the st cookie oe, hesitated, then asked, “Senior, do you want the st one?”
Jiang Qin pursed his lips, “Did you wash your hands?”
“Yes.”
“I hope I wo anything strange.”
Su Nai paused, a mix of innod fusion behind her gsses.
