Since the update, Fruit Ninja has seen another surge in downloads, and according to backend statistics, online time and number of games have increased significantly. The ad-based energy-gaining mode has been welcomed by many players, and advertisers are also very satisfied with it.
The military training was finally coming to an end. The autumn heat was intense; Lin Chen felt he had tanned seven shades darker, going from looking like Daniel Wu to Louis Koo.
After the afternoon break, Zhao Yu excitedly ran over to Lin Chen and said, "Lin Chen, I've arranged a dorm get-together with Jiang Nana. Let's meet downstairs at our dorm after we take a shower."
"I think I'll skip it; the military training every day is exhausting."
"It's my treat."
"Okay, Mr. Zhao, I will definitely be there and give you the best possible face. You can rest assured that I'll handle things well."
Zhao Yu gave Lin Chen a look that said, "This young man is very sensible and has a bright future," before turning to find Zhang Dacheng and Chen Tianfeng.
Jiang Nana was one of the few girls in the class who was fairly good-looking, and she and Zhao Yu were from the same hometown in Sichuan. Lin Chen felt that Zhao Yu had ulterior motives, but all he cared about was getting free meals, and nothing else mattered to him.
After Lin Chen went back and took a shower, Zhao Yu and the other two returned. They rushed into the bathroom one after another, with Zhao Yu taking the longest to shower. While Lin Chen was breaking his own Fruit Ninja record of 250 points, he shouted, "Zhao Yu, stop showering! If you keep showering, you'll wash away your manly scent!"
Finally, after Zhao Yu finished packing, Lin Chen was starving. He quickly pushed Zhao Yu to leave, saying, "Brother Zhao, let's hurry up and go. Jiang Nana and the others will be here soon."
As soon as Lin Chen and his three roommates came downstairs, they saw Jiang Nana's roommates walking towards them. Zhao Yu quickly went up to greet them, and Lin Chen then learned that the other girls in Jiang Nana's room were Sun Xiaohui, Zhang Meng, and Wang Shasha, all of whom were quite good-looking. No wonder Zhao Yu was so eager to arrange a blind date with them.
The group of eight arrived at a Sichuan hot pot restaurant outside the school, found a seat, and Lin Chen immediately picked up the menu on the table and handed it to Zhao Yu: "Brother Zhao, let's order."
Zhao Yu gave Lin Chen an approving look, then handed the menu to the girls to order first.
Jiang Nana smiled and said, "Zhao Yu, I didn't expect you to be the leader of your dorm."
Just as Zhang Dacheng and Chen Tianfeng were about to speak, Lin Chen quickly interrupted them, saying, "That's right, our Brother Zhao is handsome, has a good temper, is rich, and generous. He often treats our dorm to meals and is definitely the undisputed leader of our dorm. Before we came here, he even said that he had arranged breakfast for us tomorrow."
Lin Chen pretended not to see Zhao Yu's murderous gaze, and gestured to Zhang Dacheng and Chen Tianfeng, who cooperated perfectly.
"Yes, yes, that's exactly what Lin Chen said. Zhao Yu, I want to eat egg pancakes tomorrow morning."
Zhao Yu laughed and said through gritted teeth, "Fine, egg pancakes, no problem."
Seeing the group joking around, the girls covered their mouths and chuckled. Suddenly, Sun Xiaohui asked, "Lin Chen, was the woman who brought you water that day your girlfriend?"
"No, that's my high school classmate."
"Your high school classmate is quite pretty, haven't you ever thought about developing a relationship with her?"
"No, no, no, being single is the happiest thing. Being single makes me strong. Women will only slow down my sword-drawing speed."
Lin Chen originally wanted to say that even love-struck guys don't date, but looking at the few budding young men in his dorm, he decided not to scold them, lest he get a sack over his head when he went back to sleep that night.
Just then, Lin Chen's phone rang; it was Shen Yue.
"Hey, Lin Chen, have you eaten yet? Want to come out and eat together? I'm near your school."
"I was having dinner with my roommates, what brings you here?"
"My computer broke down. There's a warranty service center in the electronics market across from your school, so I came here."
"Have you eaten yet? Why don't you come and eat with us?"
"Okay, where are you?"
"I'm at the Sichuan hot pot restaurant right across from our school gate."
"Then I'll come over now."
Lin Chen hung up the phone and said to Zhao Yu, "Brother Zhao, a classmate of mine is coming over. Can we come over for a meal?"
Zhao Yu waved his hand and said, "No problem. Hot pot is more lively with more people. We Sichuan people are the most hospitable."
After a while, Shen Yue came over. Today, Shen Yue was wearing a suspender dress, had her hair styled in a princess style, and had put on makeup. When she saw Lin Chen, she smiled and ran over, leaving Zhao Yu and the other two dumbfounded.
Everyone looked at Lin Chen and thought, "Is this what you just said, that women only affect the speed at which you draw your sword?" The girl who delivered water that day was gentle, quiet, and well-behaved, a picture of a refined young lady. Sitting next to Lin Chen, she was like a cute girl next door. But the girl in front of them was bright, beautiful, generous, playful, and lively, like the most dazzling star in the night sky, making everyone present pale in comparison.
But this girl only had eyes for Lin Chen, even Zhang Dacheng, that simple-minded guy from Northeast China, could see that. Shen Yue ran over and sat down next to Lin Chen, greeting everyone: "Hello, I'm Lin Chen's high school classmate, my name is Shen Yue."
Lin Chen joked, "Weren't you called Shen Yifei? When did you change your name?"
"screw you."
Seeing Shen Yue and Lin Chen playfully bickering, everyone once again cast disdainful glances at Lin Chen.
Thanks to Zhao Yu's enthusiasm and Lin Chen's witty banter, everyone enjoyed the meal. Lin Chen even ate three plates of beef by himself, exclaiming how satisfying it was.
After dinner, Zhao Yu and his two friends, along with Jiang Nana and the others, planned to go shopping at a nearby mall, while Lin Chen accompanied Shen Yue to pick up her computer.
After Lin Chen left, Jiang Nana and the others started gossiping: "Zhao Yu, this girl seems to have a special relationship with Lin Chen."
Zhao Yu pursed his lips: "That scoundrel Lin Chen, he shouts in the dorm every day that he's a dog in love but he doesn't date, but the girls who come to him are all more beautiful than the last. He's truly a paragon of men and a paragon of dogs."
Zhang Dacheng and Chen Tianfeng nodded in agreement.
Lin Chen and Shen Yue arrived at the Lenovo after-sales service center in the digital mall. When the after-sales clerk saw that Shen Yue had brought a boy with her, his bright eyes immediately lost their luster, and he handed the computer to Shen Yue.
"Miss, you have several antivirus programs installed at the same time, which caused your computer to crash. I saw that you had too many junk programs on your computer, so I reinstalled the system for you."
"Okay, thank you. How much is it?"
"It's still under warranty, so it's free."
As the two walked out of the digital mall, a cool breeze blew in their faces. It was almost October, and the temperature difference between day and night in Shanghai was still quite large. Lin Chen clearly saw Shen Yue shiver.
"What if you catch a cold wearing so little?"
Shen Yue said with a wronged expression, "I didn't know it would be so cold at night. It was so hot when I went out."
Lin Chen pulled her into his arms and said, "Let's go. Let's go to my dorm first, I'll get you some clothes, and then I'll take you back."
Shen Yue, who was leaning against Lin Chen's chest, suddenly went blank. Her cheeks burned, and she could no longer hear what Lin Chen was saying. She just nodded and followed Lin Chen along in a daze.
