When Zhu Xingtong found Xue Yang, he was playing basketball. Many girls were around him, cheering him on, and some were even offering him water.
She chose a corner where no one would notice her and sat down, waiting for him to finish playing and go back before going over to say hello. Xue Yang was very happy to see her, and even joked about how such a busy person like her had time to come to see him. One of the brave girls even came forward to ask him if Zhu Xingtong was his girlfriend, and he almost said yes. When Zhu Xingtong said that a girl in their class liked him and wanted her to help introduce her, he was very surprised. After all, he always thought that Zhu Xingtong was a person who didn't like to meddle in other people's business. After finding out who it was, he quickly refused and said that he just wanted to study hard now. It was annoying enough to be surrounded by a group of girls. If he started dating the school belle, he was afraid that he would become famous.
Seeing that he disagreed, Zhu Xingtong didn't say much. Just as he was about to go back, he saw Liang Youqing. Ren Xiang, who was standing next to Liang Youqing, was the first to wave and said, "Classmate Zhu."
Liang Youqing looked at Xue Yang, and the two of them looked at each other for a moment before looking away as if nothing had happened.
"Who is this?" He looked at Zhu Xingtong with a smile.
"My high school classmate Xue Yang." Zhu Xingtong then introduced Xue Yang to Liang Youqing, "We used to be from the same village."
"Hello."
"So we're from the same hometown. Hello, hello." Xue Yang winked at Zhu Xingtong before shaking the hand that Liang Youqing extended.
Ren Xiang noticed the strange atmosphere and said hurriedly, "Meeting is fate. Dinner is almost here, why don't we go to a restaurant together? Daliang will treat."
Before Zhu Xingtong could say anything, Xue Yang said, "Okay, but I have to go back and take a shower first."
Liang Youqing looked at Zhu Xingtong and said, "A-Tong, what about you?"
"It's still early, I'll go back to the dorm first. How about we meet at a restaurant at six o'clock?" Zhu Xingtong thought for a moment and said. It had been two days since Zhang Yao last contacted her, and she had to go back and answer her message; she was still waiting in the dorm.
Liang Youqing nodded at her and said, "Then let's meet at six o'clock." Then he pulled Ren Xiang aside.
After Zhu Xingtong walked away, Ren Xiang nudged him with his elbow and asked, "Are you feeling pressured?"
"Yeah." Liang Youqing nodded.
"Don't worry, when we have dinner later, just focus on taking care of classmate Zhu. I will meet classmate Xue on your behalf." Ren Xiang said excitedly.
Liang Youqing hurriedly said, "Reserve yourself a bit, don't go too far."
"Don't worry about me doing the job." Ren Xiang said confidently.
Seeing him like this, Liang Youqing became more and more worried, but he himself was not very good at getting along with girls, and the atmosphere would not be awkward with Ren Xiang around, so he had to take him with him. He could only nod, thinking that since he would be there anyway, it should be fine.
Zhu Xingtong had just returned to the dormitory when Zhang Yao rushed over from her room. "How's it going?"
"He said he wants to study hard now and is not considering dating for the time being." Zhu Xingtong said tactfully.
Zhang Yao was so smart that she understood it immediately. A hint of disappointment flashed across her eyes, but she quickly smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll go back first. Thank you."
Liu Zhichan was also in the dormitory. Seeing Zhang Yao leave, she walked shyly to Zhu Xingtong and said, "Why don't you ask for me too?" After saying that, she stuffed the big apple she had washed into her hand.
"Didn't you just say a few words to him? What do you like about him?" Zhu Xingtong didn't take the apple.
"Of course it's because he's handsome." Liu Zhichan said as a matter of course.
Li Manli suddenly came over and said, "There are a lot of boys in the school, and many of them are handsome."
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhichan said, "The others are either taken or have nothing to do with me. I just thought that the one who is close to the water tower will get the moon first!"
"You don't need to ask. He doesn't like you. You forgot what happened on the train." Zhu Xingtong said bluntly.
"That's all my fault... my fault for being too impulsive," Liu Zhichan said, changing her tune under Zhu Xingtong's glare. She then shoved the large apple into Zhu Xingtong's hand and said, "If you don't want to help, forget it. This is my apology to you. I'm sorry, but please don't mention it again."
"Okay, I accept." Zhu Xingtong said as he stood up, picked up the bag hanging on the cabinet and prepared to go out.
When Li Manli saw him, she immediately asked in surprise, "Are you going out? Aren't you going to read? That's weird!"
Liu Zhichan said, "You haven't discovered that you like Xue Yang and want to go on a date with him, have you?"
Zhu Xingtong: "...I met a fellow villager who invited me and Xue Yang to dinner."
Yuan Zhen suddenly turned around and asked, "Is that the guy you and I met earlier? Is his classmate going? Can you take me with you?"
"If you want to get to know him, I can ask for you?" Zhu Xingtong did not agree immediately.
Yuan Zhen hesitated and said, "This is not a good idea. He has only met me once. I don't have to be with him. I just want to try to get along with him. Forget it, I'll think about it." Zhu Xingtong nodded, pushed away Li Manli and Liu Zhichan who looked gossipy, and walked straight out of the dormitory.
"Nerds are not stupid either!" Liu Zhichan said and glanced at Yuan Zhen.
"He is the top scorer in the college entrance examination, but he just doesn't focus on this aspect." Li Manliying said while brushing her hair.
Liu Zhichan nodded, then turned and asked Yuan Zhen, "How's that nerdy little village chief? Is he as handsome as Xue Yang?"
Yuan Zhen thought about it and finally nodded.
Liu Zhichan immediately said, "Hey, she's still talking about me, but she herself is just looking at the face."
Yuan Zhen said, "Senior Liang's grades were among the best in his class."
"Xue Yang's grades are not bad either. No, I have to win Xue Yang over. She is the one who can make me forget Brother Yang after seeing her." Liu Zhichan said, holding her face.
Li Manli said, "Yang Yang is not that good looking."
"He is different. He saved me." Liu Zhichan said a little disappointedly.
"So that's not love, it's gratitude. What's there to be sad about?" Li Manli advised her.
"I'm not sad anymore," Liu Zhichan said with a pout. She went to find Yang Yang as soon as she got to school and discovered he had indeed found a girlfriend. She confronted him, but he said he only treated her as his sister. Screw his sister.
On this side, Zhu Xingtong had already arrived at a restaurant. Before he got there, he saw Liang Youqing standing outside the door.
"Why are you waiting outside?" Zhu Xingtong walked over and asked.
"I was worried you wouldn't find the place," Liang Youqing said, leading the way. After a few steps, he turned back and asked her, "Are you adapting well in school?"
"Very good." Zhu Xingtong nodded.
Liang Youqing was silent for a moment before asking, "Did you receive the letter I wrote you earlier?"
"received."
"Why didn't you reply?"
"I don't know how to respond. You wrote too much."
"Then I'll write less next time." Liang Youqing said as he entered the store. Inside, Ren Xiang was talking animatedly with Xue Yang. Seeing them come in, he immediately called them over.
