End of December.

Affected by cold air, temperatures in various places have dropped to a few degrees.

In the south, it's already quite cold at several degrees.

"Final exams are in two weeks, another semester has passed." In room 307, Gou Shengli looked at the calendar on his phone and sighed.

"When did you become so sentimental?" Lin Xun was playing duo queue with his senior when he heard this and glanced at him.

Gou Shengli sighed, "Time flies so fast. I've already spent about half of my four years of university, and I don't feel like I've learned anything."

His current knowledge seems insufficient to support his future development.

Setting up a stall?

Well, this job is pretty good, but he can't touch it.

"By the way, the billiards hall has started to turn a profit. I'll get the profit details out at the beginning of the month, and then we can start paying salaries." He suddenly looked at Lin Xun.

The latter nodded: "With college students as our unique customer base, making a profit is very easy."

The billiard hall they jointly run doesn't require rent, meaning all the profits go into their pockets.

Moreover, Lin Xun didn't care about the principal; if there was a profit, everyone would share it.

"Gangzi has been gone for two weeks, and he still hasn't come back."

Gou Shengli began to miss Liu Gang.

Now that it's just the two of them in the dorm, they've lost a lot of the fun.

Fortunately, they didn't feel bored because their partners were all at school and they could go out on dates anytime.

Lin Xun had finished the game by then. He looked at Gou Shengli and asked, "By the way, Gou Sheng, when are you and Lin Miaomiao planning to get engaged?"

Gou Shengli scratched his head: "Next year, that's the tentative decision. I plan to have both sets of parents meet during the winter break."

He has recently saved up a small amount of money and plans to buy a car before the end of the year.

As for his driver's license, he enrolled when school started and is now preparing for the third part of the test. Once he passes the third part, he'll pass the fourth part with his eyes closed and get his license directly.

Lin Xun nodded: "That's alright. Gangzi is also planning to take his girlfriend to meet his parents at the end of the year. I just don't know if the girl's parents will agree to their relationship."

Gou Shengli chuckled: "Gangzi is so outstanding, and his conditions are also quite good, so there shouldn't be any problem."

Lin Xun looked at the ceiling, feeling a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and reflection

Indeed, they've reached the point of discussing marriage.

Lin Xun raised his hand, looked at the ring on his finger, and a smile appeared on his lips.

At noon, a light drizzle began to fall, and the temperature dropped again.

Lin Xun, wearing an extra-long black trench coat, a scarf around his neck, and holding an umbrella, walked out of the dormitory.

He agreed to have lunch with his senior at noon.

Su Qingshi had nothing to do this semester and stayed at school. When she was bored, Lin Xun would take her out to play. Atai was with them, so there was no danger. The last time they were followed had been over for a while, and the two of them had gradually forgotten about it.

When Lin Xun arrived at the cafeteria, Su Qingshi was already waiting there.

She was wearing a blue down jacket and sheer tights, and also had a scarf around her neck. Her face was aloof, and her eyes were covered by an umbrella. From a distance, people could only see that this girl had a great figure, but only when they got closer could they realize that she was actually very beautiful!

From ten meters away, Lin Xun's gaze was fixed on her; he recognized her at a glance.

After all, no one knew his senior's body structure better than him.

Lin Xun walked up to her, and Su Qingshi took the opportunity to fold up her umbrella and hide under Lin Xun's umbrella.

Are you cold?

Lin Xun took her hand with his free hand and put it in his pocket.

The pocket was still warm, because Lin Xun had warmed it beforehand.

Su Qingshi shook her head: "It's alright."

Some observant people were surprised to find that the two were wearing the same scarf, like a couple's outfit. Plus, both of them are very good-looking, and they look so adorable together!

Lin Xun led her into the cafeteria and went to get food with practiced ease. He didn't even need to ask Su Qingshi; he knew exactly what she wanted to eat.

This is the tacit understanding that develops between two people after spending a long time together, and they deeply understand each other.

"With this temperature, it should snow in Nancheng this year, right?" Su Qingshi stared blankly outside.

"Frost is a given, but snow is a rare sight even in the South City." Lin Xun placed the food in front of her and smiled, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold."

"Mm." Su Qingshi nodded gently.

During the meal, the two did not speak, but there was no awkwardness at all. They were like an old married couple who had lived together for many years and understood each other's feelings perfectly.

"They're such a perfect match." A boy nearby also noticed the seemingly perfect couple.

Sitting opposite him was a girl, a very pretty girl, who was none other than Su Qing.

Hearing the boy's words, Su Qing turned her head and glanced behind her, then asked in surprise, "It's them?"

She was somewhat surprised to see Lin Xun and Su Qingshi here.

That being said, it had been a while since she had seen the two of them.

"Su Qing, why don't you reconsider and become my girlfriend?" The boy smiled at Su Qing, but the smile made Su Qing feel uncomfortable.

She said calmly, "Senior Min, I don't know why you like me, but I'm sorry, I have no intention of being in a relationship."

This person is strange. Although they are colleagues in the club, they basically don't interact much, but suddenly he said he likes her and wants to pursue her.

Su Qing knew that her charm attracted many boys who secretly admired and pursued her, but Min Wen in front of her was different from the other boys.

He keeps saying he's pursuing me, but he never bothers me too much in my life. Instead, he keeps his distance, as if when he says he likes me, it's just a joke.

Su Qing felt something was off about this pursuit.

Min Wen chuckled: "You don't need a reason to like someone. I think you would be a good match for me, so I want to pursue you."

Su Qing's face stiffened, then she said calmly, "That's your right, and I have no right to interfere, but the premise is that you don't cause trouble for my life."

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Min Wen said with a faint smile.

His gaze lingered on Su Qing's face for a moment before shifting away and looking at the couple not far away.

After finishing their meal, Lin Xun and Su Qingshi walked out of the cafeteria together.

Suddenly, Su Qingshi stopped and looked at Su Qing not far away, or more accurately, at Min Wen next to Su Qing.

"What's wrong?" Lin Xun followed her gaze and saw Su Qing.

"It's nothing," Su Qingshi said thoughtfully, withdrawing her gaze.

She always felt like there was a pair of eyes watching her from the shadows.

Lin Xun didn't ask any more questions. He took Su Qingshi's hand and walked out of the cafeteria.

"We don't have classes this afternoon or evening, how about we go see a movie?" Lin Xun suggested.

"Okay." Su Qingshi nodded with a smile.
