noon.
I don't know if it's because the weather is getting colder, but there are fewer people eating in the cafeteria.
Lu Yibei and Ji Qingqian sat facing each other, slurping noodles, when a light, cheerful sound came from not far away:
"Brother Bei!"
Lu Yibei turned his head to look.
The two men walked side by side, and it was unclear whether they had finished eating or not, as they were not carrying anything in their hands.
One of them was someone I knew well.
The head of the student council.
Li Si.
I've never seen the other one.
"President."
Lu Yibei called out, and Ji Qingqian stopped eating her noodles.
I nodded to him as a greeting.
The unfamiliar man walked over with Li Si, sized up Lu Yibei, and greeted him with a smile:
"So you're Brother Bei?"
Lu Yibei smiled: "Whether I'm a brother or not is hard to say, but I am indeed Bei... Lu Yibei. And who is this?"
"My roommate."
Li Si gave a casual introduction.
Lu Yibei hummed in agreement, thinking that it was quite rare to see him refreshed separately... What about the potato that was bundled with him?
My roommate looked at Ji Qingqian again, then burst out laughing in surprise:
"Brother Bei, you really are the school beauty's boyfriend? I didn't quite believe it when he told me before..."
Ji Qing glanced at her roommate…
What's so hard to believe? Is she unworthy of Ah Bei, or is Ah Bei unworthy of him?
Fortunately, his roommate was just mentioning it casually and meant no harm. He quickly moved on from the topic and gently patted Li Si on the shoulder:
"If you had half of Brother Bei's abilities, you wouldn't have had to chase after Brother Pear everywhere and get completely played by her—"
Faced with his roommate's teasing, Li Si adjusted his glasses, smiled faintly, sat down next to Lu Yibei, and asked him:
"Is Bei-ge considering taking the postgraduate entrance exam?"
Lu Yibei didn't know why the topic had changed so quickly, but he still answered by shaking his head.
"If you want to take the postgraduate entrance exam, you'd better work hard... Don't end up like me..." Li Si said calmly.
Lu Yibei: ...
Ji Qingqian wasn't a talkative person, but since she was quite familiar with Li Si, she still asked a question:
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I've been accepted into a graduate program."
Ji Qingqian was still pondering the significance of those words.
Lu Yibei had already grasped the intention, and he looked at Li Si's roommate.
The latter's smile had indeed vanished, replaced by a slightly constipated expression.
"...You, you..."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeve and added, "You have something to say to Brother Bei, right? I'm going back to the dorm now! If you find me dead in my dorm, remember to collect my body!!"
Watching his roommate's angry departure, Li Si explained with a smile:
"He's going to start preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam next semester, and he's really struggling with it."
Lu Yibei nodded. "It's always you who rubs salt into people's wounds."
Li Si then said:
"I was originally planning to contact you later, Brother Bei, but I just happened to run into you... so I'll ask you here."
Lu Yibei asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Si smiled and said, "Brother Bei, you're from Hangzhou, right? Do you know where there are good cake shops in Hangzhou?"
“…Kashima?” Lu Yibei said.
This store is very close to Jiangda University.
Many students would visit it during their leisure time, making it a star shop at Jiang University... However, if Li Si only needed this answer, he wouldn't have asked.
As expected, Li Si smiled bitterly:
"The reviews aren't very high..."
This store often comes to the school to distribute shopping vouchers, and the student council also receives them.
He had taken Xia Li there before, and Li Si thought it was pretty good.
However, Xia Li gave a sharp review, saying, "I wouldn't have come to this kind of store if it weren't for the coupons..." In short, this usually easy-going girl doesn't seem to like the desserts at this store.
Lu Yibei thought for a moment and asked:
"Preparing a Christmas cake for the student council?"
Li Si smiled and said, "More or less."
Lu Yibei said "oh" and before he could say anything more, he felt the girl opposite him kick his calf. He turned his head to look.
The girlfriend's eyes sparkled, as if she had something to say.
Lu Yibei received her message, chuckled softly, and then said to Li Si:
"Since you've helped me out so many times, I'll tell you about the restaurants I used to frequent. They're my secret stash. They're a bit far though...you'll have to make a special trip there."
Li Si immediately took out his phone, ready to record it, and he smiled:
"A bit further away is fine, it can't be over at Qiandao Lake, can it?"
"That's not quite right. The shop is called 'Tang Wenhao Fried Snow'."
As Lu Yibei spoke, he drew a question mark on the table.
To be precise, the shop's name is "Tang? Jianxue".
Li Si looked at the written name of the shop: "...The shop name is quite strange."
"yes."
Lu Yibei smiled: "And the taste is also very strange—strangely delicious, you know? I used to like it very much... Yeah, don't worry, Xia Tudou will definitely like it too."
Li Si was slightly taken aback, but not too surprised.
He didn't expect to be able to hide it from Lu Yibei... not to mention Brother Bei, even his junior sister Ji beside him could see right through him with a glance.
"...Well, we should always return the favor."
Li Si smiled and checked the store name on the map: "In Yuhang?"
Lu Yibei: "My home is in Yuhang."
He was referring to his parents' home, which he hadn't been back to this semester.
"Okay, thanks."
Having obtained the answer he wanted, Li Si decided to take his leave.
He had just stood up, and Lu Yibei, who was about to continue slurping his noodles, remembered something and gave a warning:
