Chapter 76 Corny Pickup Lines



"Does the Zhuge Liang on the other side have a grudge against me?"

"Who gave you the right to kill my Cai Jiji!"

"Then you don't have to chase me all over the map to kill me, do you?"

"The nanny deserved to be killed because she played such a bad game..."

"She deserved to be killed by you, so you deserve to be killed by me too. I won't let you bully my girlfriend like this."

Du Yuanyuan's voices rose in the dormitory, "Oh dear, you can't let me bully my girlfriend... How cheesy..."

Xiao Ruoyan blushed and told them to stop talking, but the more she talked, the more excited they became.

In the end, they still lost the game because Xu Xiu deliberately targeted the enemy jungler, killing even 2-3 enemies, and managed to get a one-for-one trade.

Although they lost the game, Xiao Ruoyan and her roommates were very happy. They never had the ability to get revenge when they were targeted in the game.

In their eyes, winning or losing doesn't matter; playing games is all about having fun. What's the point of winning even if you're constantly getting crushed by others?

Xiao Ruoyan only knows how to play one healer hero; she doesn't know how to play any other heroes.

Pang Wenjun was already speechless from being beaten so badly in the game, when he overheard Xu Xiu showing off their affection in the game.

Just as she was about to explode, she heard Xu Xiu whisper, "How about we go to West Lake tomorrow?"

"Can I bring my family?"

Pang Wenjun's conversations revolve around his family, clearly indicating he's henpecked.

"Sure, because I'll be bringing my family too."

As a single guy, Xiao Xu couldn't stand these kinds of gatherings. He glanced at Pang Wenjun and said, "Old Pang, I'm thinking of going to the movies with my girlfriend recently. Do you have any good recommendations?"

"What? Lao Xiao, you have a girlfriend? How come I didn't know?"

"There are plenty of great movies, you can pick any one. Your girlfriend is...?"

Xu Xiu interrupted him directly, saying, "Old Xiao means you should introduce him to a pretty girlfriend."

Pang Wenjun: "..."

The two of them assumed Xu Xiu was a dating expert based on his expression, but in fact, Xu Xiu had been searching for various dating guides online recently.

Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu rarely get up early on weekends, but Xu Xiu got up even earlier and had already bought breakfast downstairs at the girls' dormitory.

I felt a pang of emotion: "In my past life, I remember standing outside the girls' dormitory with breakfast in my hand, and either the breakfast was already cold, or I received a message saying I didn't want to eat anymore."

Just as he was reminiscing about his unbearable past as a simp, a girl suddenly appeared behind him.

She didn't come downstairs, but appeared from behind, holding a warm milk in her hand, and made a face at Xu Xiu.

Xu Xiu turned around and saw a girl with long, flowing hair, wearing the white down jacket he had bought for her. He felt an urge to go up and hug her.

"I'll take you for a stroll around West Lake today."

Xu Xiu handed her breakfast and then took the milk from her hand.

"OK!"

Those loving eyes almost melted Xu Xiu's heart.

The two walked side by side, and Xu Xiu suddenly remembered a cheesy pickup line he had found online. He picked one out of his head and said:

I didn't sleep well at all last night.

Xiao Ruoyan asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"The blanket is too light..." Before Xu Xiu could finish speaking, Xiao Ruoyan interrupted, "Ah... Won't you be cold? Should I go find you a thicker blanket today?"

"......"

Xu Xiu was speechless. In his previous life in college, he was a lowly simp. He didn't know anything about cheesy pick-up lines or sweet talk, and he didn't even understand girls' psychology. At that time, all he knew was to use his sincere heart to exchange for love.

But luck and fate were not on his side, and he also chose the wrong person.

Once you achieve success and fame, money will naturally bring "love." Why bother pursuing or getting to know girls?

Girls or women will naturally figure out his psychology; as long as he beckons, countless people will throw themselves into his arms.

Therefore, Xu Xiu had never been in a real relationship, let alone the kind of mutual love. That's why he told her to have a college romance like when they were eighteen.

Seeing Xu Xiu's speechless expression, Xiao Ruoyan subconsciously took out her phone and searched for that sentence.

A blush inexplicably rose to her cheeks...

What others might find old-fashioned and cringe-worthy, Xiao Ruoyan thought was wonderful if she could hear these words every day.

"Xiu...I didn't sleep well last night either!"

"Oh? Is it too cold?"

Xu Xiu was also a little confused.

"It's not because I'm cold, but because the blanket is too thin; it's because the blanket can't hold back my longing for you..."

"Holy crap..."

Xu Xiu cursed inwardly, "How could I, a dignified seven-foot man, fail to woo a girl and instead get wooed myself?"

It turns out she took out her phone earlier to search for this, and he thought she had a message to reply to. Now he's wondering how he'll say all those cheesy pickup lines that are already in his head.

Xu Xiu looked troubled. How should an 18-year-old date? He suddenly felt a little lost.

What neither of them expected was that these cheesy pickup lines from the internet would eventually be turned into riddles by the two of them.

When they arrived at the school gate, Wen Zhicai and Xiao Xu were already waiting there, but Pang Wenjun and Han Yun had not yet appeared.

Watching Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan walk side by side without holding hands, the feeling was still very ambiguous.

A short while later, Pang Wenjun and Han Yun walked over hand in hand. Everyone noticed that the two of them didn't have the romantic feeling that Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan had; they seemed more like siblings.

The iconic large van was already waiting not far away. Bai Yushu had directly hired a driver with more than ten years of driving experience, and it was unknown which passenger transport company he had poached from.

After everyone got on the bus, the two middle seats were obviously given to the two girls. Xu Xiu sat in the front passenger seat, and his three roommates sat in the back row, making a total of seven people including the driver.

Xu Xiu chatted with the driver along the way. Master Zheng was a little nervous at first. Today was his first day officially reporting for duty, and he was tasked with picking up the boss.

Although I'm in my forties and have seen all sorts of things, I was still a little nervous about meeting my boss for the first time.

Xu Xiu greeted him as soon as he got in the car, and the two chatted about everything along the way. Xu Xiu didn't act like a boss at all, and the two got along very well.

Xiao Ruoyan and Han Yun were chatting about girls' topics, while the three people in the back row were staring at each other with expressions of mutual disapproval.

When they arrived at West Lake, Xu Xiu told Master Zheng to go back to the company first and come back to pick them up when it was time to leave. He felt there was no need for the car to follow them all the time, and if they stayed out late, they could just take a taxi back.

After getting off the bus, the first stop for everyone was to visit the Broken Bridge, as there were quite a few people coming and going along the West Lake today, being the weekend.

Upon arriving at the Broken Bridge, they found it crowded with people. Xu Xiu instinctively grabbed Xiao Ruoyan's hand and shielded her behind him. Pang Wenjun, meanwhile, was looking around, seemingly searching for something.

As an art major, Han Yun was naturally above average in appearance, so her roommates couldn't understand why she would fall for Pang Wenjun.

Pang Wenjun walked on by himself, leaving Han Yun behind. Then he looked at Xu Xiu and Xiao Ruoyan. There was no harm in comparison.

Han Yun was so angry that she crossed her arms and refused to leave.

Upon noticing the anomaly, Pang Wenjun immediately returned, put his arm around Han Yun's shoulder, and slowly walked forward, claiming that he was going ahead to scout out how many people were there.

Xiao Xu shouted from the side, "Look, there are beautiful women wearing Hanfu in the dead of winter!"

"Holy crap...where...?"
