Chapter 104 Have you ever had a girlfriend?

What do boarding students usually like to do on weekends?

Xiao You: Dormitory.

The three auspicious treasures: playing games in internet cafes.

Lin Huai: Chatting with my younger brother.

Since yesterday's battle, the three treasures' admiration for Lin Huai has been like a surging river, never ending. They not only created a WeChat group called "Huai's Daddy is the Best in the World", but also organized a fan club on Tieba.

They planned to print some small cards privately, get Lin Huai to sign them, and then give them out as a raffle in the fan club.

This way, I can meet more girls.

Xiao You interrupted their group chat at an inopportune moment:

"Would someone who asks you for Lin Huai's photo card even consider the three of you?"

They were all after Lin Huai, which instantly raised the bar for male idols at the entire No. 1 High School. They looked at the three of them like they were idiots.

Wang Haomai sent an awkward emoji.

That seems to make sense.

Aside from occasionally sending some emojis in the group chat, Lin Huai didn't participate much in the conversation.

She maintains a cool and aloof persona.

Of course, this is only in front of others.

Behind closed doors, he kept sending messages to Xiao You in the private chat box.

From weather forecasts and traffic conditions to street-side group buying and sharing of various delicacies, the rest is just idle chatter.

Xiao You sometimes replies and sometimes doesn't, depending entirely on her mood.

Lin Huai waited for two hours until the afternoon, but Xiao You didn't reply. He switched to the chat and saw that they were chatting happily in the group.

The topic of conversation was still about how the abs of the instructor at the newly opened gym next door were really impressive.

"It was Yang Zijiang who said it," Xiao You replied with a lewd emoji.

Lin Huai was a little unhappy, so he took a picture of his chest muscles and sent it to Xiao You.

"Which looks better, this one or the coach's?"

Xiao You replied, "Naive."

I thought to myself, "Those pectoral muscles are really nice."

He took out books and sketchbooks and began sketching Wen Jing.

After finishing the painting, he stood up, stretched, put it away, and placed it in the drawer.

Xiao You heard her stomach rumbling loudly and realized that she hadn't eaten anything since she got up.

Just then, Xiao You heard the voices of the three auspicious treasures in the corridor. She opened the door and bumped into the three of them.

Wang Haomai was carrying a lot of food: "These are all from my dad and your brother. They asked us to buy them for you from the food street downstairs. Basically, all the popular snacks you can find on Dianping are here. The three of us brothers had to wait in line forever."

"You have the nerve to say that? It was the two of us queuing up while you were just looking for a shop spot. It was so embarrassing, queuing up with a bunch of girls to buy egg waffles," Yang Zijiang complained.

Wang Bahang said, "I usually call her 'little sister' everywhere, but now that she's standing behind me, I don't even dare to talk to her."

Xiao You took the boxes from their hands and let them into the room.

"Actually, I'm fine with just a little something, there's no need to buy so much. Let's eat together."

After sitting down, Wang Bahang took a picture and posted it in the group chat.

Tell Huai's father that they have completed their mission.

Lin Huai gave him a thumbs up.

The three of them kept talking during the meal, rambling on about this and that and spouting useless nonsense.

From the gossip about who was dating whom in the class to the teacher's wig and the principal's dentures, Xiao You never uttered a sound when she spoke on stage.

Faced with Lin Huai's ulterior motives in showing concern, Xiao You, having been through romantic relationships, couldn't possibly be unaware of what it meant.

My phone lit up again; it was a message from Lin Huai.

Lin Huai: Have you eaten? Which one do you think is the best?

Xiao You: They're all fine, I'm not picky.

Lin Huai: Do you want to drink milk tea? I saw that the things they bought were quite spicy.

Xiao You: The Little Rabbit Peeks.JPG

Lin Huai: Open the door.

Xiao You went to open the door without even putting on his slippers properly. Lin Huai looked at him, his eyes seemingly smiling: "No rush, go put your shoes on."

Lin Huai looked at him, without showing any anger.

This person is so kind.

When the three auspicious children saw their father arrive, they bowed down to respectfully welcome him.

One person drags a stool.

One person is wiping the table.

One person helped their father take off his coat and hang it on the back of the chair.

That's starting to get to it.

Even the most luxurious single room would feel a bit cramped with five big men sitting in it.

Lin Huai inserted the straw, wiped away the spilled milk with a tissue, and naturally took Xiao You's hand to offer her the milk tea: "The temperature is just right."

Xiao You unconsciously pulled her hand back slightly. Even though it was only for a few seconds, the hand that Lin Huai was holding felt like it was electrified.

Xiao You, like a rabbit, held the straw in her mouth and sucked hard.

Lin Huai looked at the little white rabbit, his eyes full of smiles.

Wang Haomai responded with two "eh"s and asked, "Huai-daddy, have you ever had a girlfriend?"

One question ignited the entire room.

This is a key issue, and both those who are interested and those who are not are listening intently.

Lin Huai's eyelashes fluttered, and he looked at Xiao You, saying, "No."

Just as Sanbao let out an "Oh~~~ (in tone)" of surprise, Lin Huai added, "But, she's had a boyfriend."

Sanbao exclaimed "Oh~~~ (falling tone)," turning their necks and above to the left in unison, looking at Xiao You who was drinking milk tea.

It's an unspoken understanding: there's big news coming!

"Oh what? Why are you looking at me?" Xiao You interrupted them, her tone displeased. "Don't act like I'm your ex-boyfriend."

Yangtze River said, "So you're single now? How many young men and women should be thanking the matchmaker for not setting them up, and thanking Buddha for his kindness!"

Lin Huai ignored him.

Those bright black eyes were still looking at Xiao You: "And you, Xiao Youzi, what kind of boy do you like?"

Sanbao was dumbfounded: What the hell? Two years of being classmates and no one knew Xiao You liked boys? How did he know?

But Sanbao didn't dare to say it.

"Don't call me Little Pomelo," Xiao You said. "I like... handsome guys."

Sanbao seized the opportunity to tease, "That's our dad! I've lived for seventeen years and I've never seen anyone more handsome than our Huai-dad!"

"Yes, the groom is in love, the bride is willing, the ceremony is complete, and they are led to the bridal chamber!"

Xiao You was still the same person who couldn't take a joke, and she immediately became shy.

I should be very resistant to this person.

At a time like this, one shouldn't make jokes like this with other people.

He was still married to Wen Jing.

I feel guilty now, like I'm cheating on someone else.

He grabbed a skewer of lamb from the table and stuffed his mouth full.

"Spicy! It's so spicy!" I didn't notice and grabbed the skewer that was covered in chili peppers, and my mouth turned red.

Lin Huai picked up a glass of water, placed it in front of him, unscrewed the cap, and didn't say anything.

Xiao You picked up her water glass and took a big gulp, but choked again.

Lin Huai frowned.

When will I learn to take care of myself?

When Wang Haomai came back from the restroom, he suggested that everyone go out and have some fun, since this was the only weekend they could have a proper rest. After that, there would be evening self-study sessions scheduled for Sunday afternoons to help students refocus and get into a good study routine for Monday.

"Should we book an all-nighter? A karaoke bar or an internet cafe, all together?"

Before Lin Huai could refuse, Xiao You said, "Okay, I'll go."

Lin Huai swallowed back the words "I want to go home and sleep" that he was about to say.

Sanbao excitedly asked Xiaoyou where she wanted to go. Xiaoyou thought for a moment and said, "To the internet cafe!"

So the five of them went to a private room and sat together.

For Lin Huai, who lives a regular life, this is undoubtedly a compromise that defies common sense.

What can we do? Xiao You wants to play, so we have to play along, even if it costs us our lives.
