Chapter 14 Blushing

The afternoon exam went smoothly.

Lu Yanhe finished his last humanities exam at 6 p.m.

It wasn't dark yet, but suddenly a heavy rain started, and thunder roared behind layers of dark clouds. Lu Yanhe was worried about how he would get home that night.

He didn't bring an umbrella.

Back in the classroom, everyone was putting the tables back to their original positions.

Lu Yanhe carried his table from the corridor into the room and put it behind him. Lin Yu and Chen Qin walked up to him.

"Lu Yanhe, are you free tonight?" Lin Yu asked him.

Lu Yanhe asked, "What's wrong?"

Linyu said, "After the monthly exam, we're planning to have a celebratory dinner together tonight. Do you want to come?"

A get-together?

celebrate?

Even if we split the bill, it must cost a lot of money, right?

Lu Yanhe said with righteous indignation and regret, "I really want to participate, but I have a job tonight."

Lin Yu was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she still smiled and said, "Then let's have a meal together again next time."

“Okay.” Lu Yanhe suddenly thought of something, “Oh, actually, if you have time tomorrow, you can come to a party together.”

Lin Yu and Chen Qin were both taken aback.

"Party?"

"Hmm." Lu Yanhe nodded. "The host of the party is very interested in making friends. Do you two have some time?"

Chen Qin coughed lightly and asked, "Is it a party with a lot of people?"

Chen Qin could only imagine the kind of celebrity parties that you see in movies.

Lu Yanhe thought for a moment. Chen Siqi's family was rich, so the party must be quite large. Her stepmother would definitely make it a grand affair to show how good she was to her.

He nodded. "Yes."

Lin Yu asked, "Do I have to dress very formally? I... I don't have an evening gown."

Lin Yu also imagined a party where everyone was dressed up beautifully.

"It's okay, just dress a little more formally," Lu Yanhe said.

Since Chen Siqi has already said so, he can bring any other friends he has with him.

In this school, the people he was somewhat familiar with were Lin Yu and Chen Qin.

With two more people brought along, Chen Siqi should be even more satisfied.

Since they generously gave him a two thousand yuan appearance fee, Lu Yanhe felt he should reciprocate in kind.

-

"A party? What party?"

Li Zhibai and Yan Liang were both very surprised to hear that Lu Yanhe was going to attend a party.

For three years, they hadn't seen Lu Yanhe interact with anyone, and attending parties was extremely rare for him.

Lu Yanhe gave a brief explanation.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhibai and Yan Liang said in unison, "Then I'll go too."

Lu Yanhe was extremely surprised.

Why do you want to go?

Yan Liang said, "I'm also from No. 13 Middle School, why can't I go?"

Li Zhibai said, "I'm your roommate, of course I can go."

Lu Yanhe looked at the two of them suspiciously, feeling that they had ulterior motives.

"You two didn't hear me say that Chen Siqi is very pretty, so you want to go, right?"

"Am I that kind of person?" Li Zhibai immediately retorted, "It's so easy for me to meet pretty girls."

Yan Liang: "I'm just bored because I have nothing to do tomorrow."

Lu Yanhe didn't believe a single word they said.

"Have you finished your monthly exams?" Li Zhi asked.

"The exam is over."

Li Zhibai looked at Yan Liang: "You missed the exam again?"

"Since I won't get a good score anyway, what's the point of taking the exam?" Yan Liang said.

“You still have to take the college entrance exam. Do you think you don’t have to take the college entrance exam just because you’re an art student?” Li Zhibai said.

Yan Liang: "It hasn't started yet, so we can catch up on it later in a concentrated period of time."

"So, can we relax tonight?" Li Zhi asked Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe shook his head: "I need to continue studying to prepare for the college entrance examination."

Li Zhibai was dumbfounded.

This time, Yan Liang was stunned. He never expected that Lu Yanhe would be so ruthless.

"Holy crap, you haven't really been bewitched, have you?"

No matter what they say, Lu Yanhe will continue as before. He sees no hope of becoming an artist in the short term, so he can only focus on his studies first.

The next day, Li Zhibai drove Lu Yanhe and Yan Liang to attend Chen Siqi's birthday party.

They then picked up Chen Qin and Lin Yu.

When Chen Qin and Lin Yu got into the car, they were shocked to see Li Zhibai and Yan Liang.

Lu Yanhe and the others were also shocked when they saw Chen Qin and Lin Yu.

Compared to the two of them, the three of them were dressed far too casually.

They were all wearing jeans and T-shirts.

Chen Qin was wearing a black suit and a bow tie.

Linyu was wearing a white dress.

Chen Qin was stunned when he saw the three of them.

Why are you dressed so casually?

Upon seeing his formal attire, Lu Yanhe immediately asked, "Aren't we dressed too casually?"

Li Zhi asked, "Is your classmate's birthday party this grand?"

His face clearly said, "It's just a high school student's birthday party."

Lu Yanhe said, "It should be quite a grand affair, right?"

Chen Qin was completely confused: "Our classmate's birthday party?"

His face clearly said, "When did this party become a party for our classmates?"

Yan Liang asked in surprise, "You didn't know?"

"..."

Lu Yanhe suddenly realized, "Did I forget to tell you that we're going to Chen Siqi's birthday party?"

"Chen Siqi from Class 7?" Lin Yu looked shocked.

“Yes,” Lu Yanhe said.

Lin Yu and Chen Qin looked like they wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yanhe asked. "Is she Chen Qin's ex-girlfriend?"

He was just joking.

But Lin Yu and Chen Qin remained silent.

Lu Yanhe was shocked.

"Holy crap, I was right?"

Lin Yu: "You're half right, she did pursue Chen Qin."

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe realized that he had made a huge blunder.

"Lu Yanhe, look at the mess you've made!" Li Zhibai complained.

"I didn't know Chen Siqi had ever pursued Chen Qin," Lu Yanhe protested, "Fine, I admit I messed this up. What are we going to do? How about we send you back again?"

That's so embarrassing.

Chen Qin looked at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu asked, "Lu Yanhe, why did you invite Chen Qin and me to Chen Siqi's birthday party?"

Lu Yanhe said, "She said I could bring any of my friends with me. The only people I'm really close to in class are you two."

He scratched his head, feeling even more that what he had done was dishonest.

"I'm sorry."

Lin Yu pondered for a few seconds and said, "Since that's the case, then let's go. Are you okay?"

Chen Qin immediately replied, "Of course I'm okay with it. There was never anything between us."

Lu Yanhe was quite surprised.

"Don't push yourself," he said.

He was actually talking to Lin Yu. He thought that no girl would want to attend the birthday party of a girl who had pursued her boyfriend.

But Chen Qin misunderstood. He took Lu Yanhe's words as being directed at him. He glared at Lu Yanhe and said, "What's there to be stubborn about? I've only ever liked Xiaoyu!"

The other men: "..."

Even with so many people around, Lin Yu couldn't help but blush.

"..."
