But he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at her again, and turned to talk to the girl in front of him.
Ji Qingqian immediately looked away, afraid of causing unnecessary trouble for others.
But after she looked away, she couldn't help but purse her lips and smile slightly.
Returning to the holy land, one should perform one's own rituals.
"--here."
Ma Jiaojiao called out to her roommates.
She found the seat that her boyfriend had reserved for her.
Chu Chu had met Ma Jiaojiao's boyfriend twice before, and greeted him sweetly as she went up to him:
"Hello, senior~"
"Hello," Zheng Yi smiled.
"Happy birthday to you."
Chu Chu displayed her exceptional social skills: "The notification was so sudden, we didn't have time to prepare any gifts... but I believe your girlfriend has already given you her heart, so let's not be the fools."
Wang Jue looked at Chu Chu with some envy.
It has to be said that Chu Chu's extroverted personality was what she, an introvert, envied most. She only dared to follow behind and whisper, "Happy birthday, senior..."
"Thank you." Zheng Yi gestured, "Please have a seat."
In Chu Chu's view
This senior, Zheng Yi, is quite handsome and has a great sense of style. Even his side-parted hairstyle is carefully designed, and he must have used hair gel. His gold-rimmed glasses sparkle under the lights.
His outfit made his girlfriend look rather plain in comparison…
He was probably the second most handsome among the boyfriends in their dorm.
The first one, of course, is Ji Qingqian's husband.
To be honest, in terms of fashion sense and style, Senior Lu is nowhere near as good as Senior Zheng.
But alas, he's just too handsome.
…It's not that he's conventionally handsome, but rather that he's pleasing to the eye over time.
Chu Chu felt that Senior Lu had a kind of bug-like quality, meaning that you wouldn't think he was that handsome just by looking at him once.
However, no matter who he stands next to, he easily appears to be just a little bit more handsome than the person next to him.
Even if he's not even a fraction as handsome, he's still at least evenly matched.
This time, Ma Jiaojiao brought a group of friends with her.
Two friends were sitting next to Zheng Yi.
Putting aside his looks, his style is exactly the same as Zheng Yi's, with slicked-back hair and a pretty boy look.
The kind of person who'd decide to debut at the drop of a hat.
"They are all my friends."
Zheng Yi gave a casual introduction, and then introduced his girlfriend's roommates to his friend: "They're all beautiful, right?"
"Oh, senior, you can't say that."
Chu Chu chuckled and said in a fawning tone, "If you praise us like this, Sister Jiao will give us a hard time when she gets back to the dormitory!"
Ma Jiaojiao glared at Chu Chu, wondering why this guy was making such a gossipy old lady laugh.
Then, unusually shy, she glanced at her boyfriend and said, "I wouldn't be so petty."
However, it must be said that although Chu Chu's tone was somewhat quirky, he was very good at livening up the atmosphere.
Even though Ma Jiaojiao wasn't very familiar with Zheng Yi's friends, she was already chatting away with them about all sorts of things.
Chu Chu had a passive quality: "The more acquaintances he had, the more open he could chat with them."
Ma Jiaojiao felt that if she had come alone, her reaction would probably have been no better than Wang Jue's silent ostrich-like behavior...
Ji Qingqian remained silent.
But compared to the lowly Wang Jue, this man exuded an imposing aura even without speaking.
Ma Jiaojiao couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Sometimes she felt quite honored that she could actually hear such an outrageous word as "running naked" coming out of the mouth of such a cool and aloof girl in the dormitory...
While Chu Chu was chatting and joking with the three boys, her eyes kept darting around them.
She discovered it, just as she had expected.
Ji Qingqian was much more eye-catching than her. One of the boys seemed to have his eyes glued to Ji Qingqian, staring at her the whole time.
It wouldn't have mattered before, but Ji Qingqian has a boyfriend now...
Besides, with such a wide network of connections, she might need his help to find a boyfriend in the future.
"This must be the legendary campus belle, Ji—"
When the boy opened his mouth, Chu Chu had a premonition of what was going to happen when she saw him grab his phone.
She immediately interrupted the spellcasting and grinned at Zheng Yi:
"Senior, I thought it would just be the few of us celebrating your birthday, but I didn't expect your friends to come too, it's like a social gathering... Haha, are any of the two seniors I met for the first time interested in any of us? Don't be shy, if you like me or Juejue, just add me on WeChat, but not Ji Qingqian, she has a boyfriend."
The boy was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter:
"How could that be? Of course we know that School Beauty Ji has a boyfriend. Zheng Yi told us a long time ago. He said before that he saw School Beauty Ji's boyfriend giving her flowers, right?"
Chu Chu breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems the terrible scenario she imagined won't happen.
Zheng Yi also laughed and said, "Junior Sister Ji's boyfriend is really 'cool'—"
Chu Chu wondered if she was being too sensitive, but she always felt that when Zheng Yi said the word "cool," it seemed to have a hidden meaning.
It was less of a compliment and more of a disparaging question: "What's so great about that?"
The boy said again:
"Since you say so, junior, then I won't stand on ceremony. Here, have a V."
Chu Chu handed over her QR code with a grin.
The boy continued:
"Come on, let's add this junior on WeChat too. More friends mean more opportunities."
