All three of them thoroughly enjoyed the hot pot meal.
The cost wasn't high; a single meal only cost several hundred yuan.
In Lin Xun's opinion, it was worthwhile.
"Wait for me a moment, I'm going to the restroom."
Jiang Yunxiao said something to Lin Xun and the other person, then ran to the toilet.
Su Qingshi remained calm, while Lin Xun looked somewhat nervous.
Unlike the previous two times, Lin Xun had ulterior motives this time when they were alone.
He was certain that he had fallen for the fairy-like senior, and he would unconsciously feel nervous whenever he saw her.
Are you nervous?
Su Qingshi glanced at him and asked.
Lin Xun exclaimed, "No, no!"
Su Qingshi smiled enigmatically: "Then why are you stuttering?"
"This...this..." Lin Xun was taken aback, then coughed and quickly adjusted himself: "Um, senior is so beautiful. This is the first time I've ever chatted with such a beautiful girl. I'm a little uncomfortable."
Su Qingshi asked curiously, "You've never been in a relationship."
Lin Xun quickly shook his head: "No...no! Senior, I just graduated from high school."
“So what if you graduated from high school? I know some people who started dating in high school. Your thinking is a bit outdated,” Su Qingshi said.
"Yeah?"
Lin Xun gave an awkward smile.
"By the way, senior, do you live around here?" Lin Xun suddenly asked.
He still doesn't know where his senior lives.
Su Qingshi shook her head: "No, I just came here to relax. I'll be going back in a few days."
"Oh, oh." Lin Xun was a little disappointed. He thought his senior lived in Liangcheng, which would make it easier to ask her out another day.
"When will your college entrance exam results be released?" Su Qingshi asked.
"It should be in the next day or two," Lin Xun estimated.
Su Qingshi nodded: "I wish you all your dreams come true."
Lin Xun's eyes lit up: "Thank you, senior."
The two chatted casually about topics related to nutritional deficiencies, and Lin Xun gradually became less nervous.
Not long after, Jiang Yunxiao returned, her eyes darting between the two of them as if trying to catch something.
"What are you looking at?" Su Qingshi asked calmly.
"Hehe, I want to see if you two, a lone man and a lone woman, sparks fly?" Jiang Yunxiao laughed.
Lin Xun's face turned bright red.
Su Qingshi's face darkened.
"Hehe, okay, where do we go next?" Jiang Yunxiao quickly changed the subject.
Su Qingshi looked at Lin Xun.
The latter thought for a moment and said, "Go shopping?"
According to reliable sources, girls love shopping.
"Alright, alright! Let's go then!"
...
More than an hour later, the three of them came out of the mall.
As the only boy, Lin Xun naturally took on the responsibility of carrying the bags.
Lin Xun was slightly out of breath as he carried the large and small bags.
It seems I need to exercise more often.
They were carrying mostly the two girls' belongings, mostly daily necessities, which they paid for themselves. Lin Xun tried to pay, but Su Qingshi glared at him and stopped him.
In their view, even if Lin Xun's family was rich, they didn't have a very close relationship, so they couldn't swindle him out of his money.
Although Jiang Yunxiao is good at flirting, he is still quite rational.
After leaving the mall, the sun was already high in the sky, so the three of them found a large tree to cool off under.
"Thank you for your hard work, junior. It's so hot, and you're still helping us carry things. Are you thirsty? Wait here for a moment, we'll go buy you a drink."
Before Lin Xun could respond, Jiang Yunxiao pulled Su Qingshi away.
Lin Xun stood there for a moment, then decided to put the things down.
"Lin Xun?"
Suddenly, a questioning voice came from the side.
Lin Xun was taken aback for a moment, then he looked up at the other person: "Su Qing?"
Su Qing was standing a few meters away, wearing a white dress.
Su Qing walked over and glanced at Lin Xun: "What are you doing here?"
Lin Xun said casually, "I came out to buy some things."
His tone was somewhat cold, completely unlike his stuttering when he spoke with Su Qingshi.
Su Qing also sensed his distance, and a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes. She smiled and said, "You look very handsome today. As expected of the son of the richest man, you have changed a lot compared to before. You didn't know how to dress up before."
Lin Xun was a pleasant surprise to her today. Back in high school, Lin Xun dressed very plainly. Although he was somewhat handsome, he wasn't particularly dazzling.
Now he exudes more confidence, and with his trendy outfits, he's a quintessential sunny young man.
Su Qing suddenly realized that the boy who had a crush on her was starting to become outstanding.
Unfortunately, she hurt the other person's feelings.
Lin Xun's face remained expressionless as he coldly replied, "People change, don't they? That's what you taught me."
Su Qing's face stiffened: "Lin Xun, I..."
Lin Xun raised his hand to interrupt her: "Sorry, we're not that close. You can call me Lin Xun, classmate, or just classmate from now on. Thank you."
He had long since given up on this girl.
Let's just consider it a waste of youthful passion!
Su Qing was about to say something when suddenly a splash of purple appeared in her vision.
"Have you been waiting long?"
Su Qingshi walked to Lin Xun's side and glanced at him.
Although his tone remained as calm as ever, it carried a hint of gentleness, like a spring breeze.
Lin Xun was in a great mood when he saw Su Qingshi. He noticed that Su Qingshi was holding two ice creams, one in each hand, which made her look less ethereal and more down-to-earth.
So cute!
Upon seeing a girl suddenly appear beside Lin Xun, and one who was exceptionally beautiful, Su Qing's face turned pale.
"Lin Xun, who is she?"
Su Qingshi glanced at her. She had just seen Lin Xun chatting with the girl in front of her. For some reason, seeing this scene made her feel uncomfortable, so she came over without waiting for Jiang Yunxiao.
Su Qingshi was somewhat surprised, because the girl in front of her was very beautiful, at least on par with Jiang Yunxiao.
Is this junior student so popular with girls?
"Junior, who is this?"
See, that's the difference. The senior used "this" to show respect to a stranger, while Su Qing directly asked who she was, which sounded a bit accusatory.
Lin Xun naturally sided with his senior and introduced her first: "This is my high school classmate. We just happened to run into each other."
He then turned to Su Qing and said, "This is my senior, Su Qingshi."
The two women looked at each other knowingly.
Su Qing's expression immediately became unreadable.
She asked first, and Lin Xun actually answered the girl first, without even bothering to introduce her name!
That's heartbreaking!
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Su Qingshi's eyes. She was very clever and immediately noticed Lin Xun's differential treatment. It has to be said that she felt a little pleased.
Moreover, she also sensed something unusual.
So she extended her hand to Su Qing: "Hello, I am Su Qingshi."
