On the streets of 2009, there weren't the milk tea brands that Lin Chen knew from his previous life, nor were there so many flavors or tongue-twisting names. But Su Xiaowan was still very happy drinking them, sucking the pearls into her mouth and chewing them like a little hamster.
After Lin Chen escorted Su Xiaowan back to her dorm, he was just about to head back to his own when Senior An Rou called: "Hey, junior, what's up? Need me to edit the picture?"
Lin Chen heard a groggy voice coming from the phone and knew the person had just woken up: "Senior, did you just wake up?"
"Yeah, didn't I tell you I stayed up two all-nighters? I fell asleep after sending you the pictures, and I just woke up now. I'm getting ready to go out for dinner."
"What a coincidence! Come downstairs, I happen to be downstairs. I'll treat you to dinner and give you something while I'm at it."
"Thank you, boss, I'll be right down."
Ten minutes later, An Rou, dressed neatly, came to Lin Chen.
"Senior, you actually came downstairs to get dressed so late at night."
"Hey, when did I not wear clothes? I did wear clothes last time too, it was just pajamas."
"Haha, let's go. What do you want to eat? It's on the boss. And this is a free gift."
"What is it? Wow, an iPhone?! Junior, are you crazy? Giving me such an expensive phone, are you trying to do something to me?"
"You?" Lin Chen looked her up and down. "You'd better pay me to consider it."
"Aaaaah, I'll bite you to death!"
"Here you go, this is a bonus I got from making some money playing games."
"Oh ho, how much money did you make? Can you satisfy my curiosity?"
"Not much, maybe a few million."
"Tch, fine, don't tell me then. Let's go, I want to eat pork chop rice, I'm starving."
An Rou led Lin Chen to the Hong Kong-style tea restaurant near the school gate, ordered a pork chop rice, and began to eat heartily.
Lin Chen sat across from her, watching her eat, and said with amusement, "Senior, can't you be a little more polite when you're eating in front of a boy?"
"Boy? Where? Where? There's only a wicked capitalist in front of me."
"If I say that again, I won't give you the phone."
"I was wrong, I was wrong, boss. You are the best boss, mwah."
...
Military training began, and the scorching sun made everyone sweat profusely, but it also made everyone get to know each other better.
After the first morning of military training, Zhao Yu had already become familiar with the few girls in his class. This guy was practically a social terrorist, especially when chatting with girls; he never knew what shyness was.
After lunch, everyone returned to their dorms for a nap. Lin Chen turned on his computer and saw that Apple had sent him an email confirming his app's approval. So, he turned on his phone and started updating Fruit Ninja.
Zhao Yu pushed the door open and came in, sighing, "Ugh, this is so unfair! There are only fifteen girls in our class, and five of them asked me for Lin Chen's contact information this morning. Can't they see that I'm more handsome than Lin Chen?"
Chen Tianfeng glanced at him and said, "Brother, listen to me, let's go to the hospital. If you're sick, you have to get treatment. We can't give up on treatment."
Zhang Dacheng said enviously, "Zhao Yu, I've discovered you're really something. You're not shy at all when chatting with girls. When will you teach me?"
Seeing that Lin Chen didn't speak, Zhao Yu walked over and looked at him: "Fruit Ninja? Lin Chen, you play this game too? What's your highest score?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Two hundred points? My skill level isn't good enough. You want to play too?"
"Yeah, let me tell you, I've already reached over 800 points. Has the game been updated? I'll go check it out."
Zhang Dacheng and Chen Tianfeng also came over: "Let me see what kind of game it is?"
While updating, Zhao Yu replied, "Fruit Ninja, but it can only be played on iPhone. Oh, they even updated a leaderboard this time. Let me see what the highest score is. Holy crap, 1024 points! That's cheating!"
Lin Chen also saw the current leaderboard, which had a record of 1024 points. However, he knew that this record would soon be broken because when a goal is placed in front of you, a person's potential is limitless.
Sure enough, by evening, the record had been broken to 1100 points. Lin Chen couldn't help but smile as he watched the earnings increase in the background.
In the afternoon, military training continued. During a break, Lin Chen saw Su Xiaowan's class. However, there were many upperclassmen lesbians around the School of Economics. There was nothing he could do about it, since there were many girls in the School of Economics, and they were all of high quality.
Girls are amazing. When the girls around you dress up beautifully every day, you will naturally become more beautiful. But if you are surrounded by male computer science students, you may wear short sleeves and jeans for four years of college.
The boys in Lin Chen's class were all drooling over the girls from the School of Economics.
"Take a 15-minute break." Following the order from the instructor of the School of Economics, Su Xiaowan's class was dismissed for a break. Su Xiaowan noticed Lin Chen sitting there watching her and smiled happily at him.
"Holy crap, did you see that girl smile at me?" a boy sitting next to Lin Chen shouted.
"Are you blind? You were clearly smiling at me. Don't you know what you're really like?"
"She's coming over, she's coming over, she's coming to find me, what should I do? Quick, help me check if my hairstyle is messed up."
Hearing these hormone-fueled young people get feverish, Lin Chen scoffed, "Heh, you people, women will only slow me down when I draw my sword."
Then, everyone saw Su Xiaowan walk over with two bottles of water, handing one to Lin Chen: "Lin Chen, have some water." Then she sat down next to Lin Chen.
Lin Chen unscrewed the bottle and handed it back to Su Xiaowan, then took her bottle, unscrewed it, and took a sip himself.
The boys around him all cast disdainful and envious glances at him. Seeing this, Zhao Yu remarked, "When it comes to looks, Lin Chen and I are about equal, but when it comes to dogs, ten of me combined can't compare to Lin Chen."
Su Xiaowan took out the iPhone Lin Chen had given her: "Lin Chen, what's your game ID? I'd like to add you as a friend."
Lin Chen then opened the game and said to her, "You absolutely mustn't put any money in there. Apple charges a 30% tax, it's such a rip-off. You might as well just give me the money directly, there's no middleman taking a cut."
"Hehe, I don't play for very long, the free stamina is enough for me."
The two added each other as game friends and immediately had a friendly PK. A minute later, Lin Chen looked at the PK result on his screen, which showed 250 points, and Su Xiaowan's screen showed 830 points, and casually put away his phone.
"Ahem, the weather is nice today. Look how big and round the sun is."
