Chapter 42 As expected, I overestimated myself.



Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback.

He truly hadn't expected that the fairy-like junior would give him this prize.

In that instant, a strange feeling swept through Lin Xiao's heart.

He has never received a gift from anyone since he was a child.

Because he didn't have money to give gifts to others.

Lin Xiao's eyes flickered, and he gave it a light push with a chuckle.

"Junior, this is something you won with your own strength. It's very meaningful and you should keep it as a keepsake."

Bai Youyou was stunned.

The smile on his lips vanished.

She said somewhat helplessly, "But... I went up to compete for my senior."

Lin Xiao was stunned again.

Looking at the disappointed look in the fairy-like junior's eyes, he suddenly wondered if he should have been so heartless.

After all, it was someone's good intention.

So he thought for a moment and smiled, "Junior, how about this?"

"This set of notebooks has four notebooks in total, and we'll each take half."

"The diary and sketchbook are mine, the journal and reading notebook are yours."

"I will give the diary to my aunt and tell her that it was a gift from my junior schoolmate."

Do you think this is okay?

Bai Youyou's clear eyes lit up, and she nodded emphatically, "Yes!"

The two split the prize on the spot.

They were both satisfied, with happy smiles on their lips.

They left the library side by side.

"Junior, you gave me a gift, so I'll treat you to dinner tonight. Let's go to the stir-fry window and order whatever you like."

Bai Youyou smiled, her usually cool and innocent voice now tinged with a sweetness.

"Okay, senior, I want to eat fish."

"Okay, no problem. I have to oblige. What else would you like to eat, junior? Don't worry, I have money in my account."

Bai Youyou thought about it seriously for a moment, then said calmly, "I just want to eat fish and stir-fried vegetables, that's enough."

Not far away, Zhao Zhiqiang came down from the stage with a dejected look on his face.

His roommate, watching him from the side, couldn't help but laugh and say, "Brother Qiang, how's it going? The competition wasn't easy to win, was it? I bet there's nothing good left in the cafeteria these days."

Zhao Zhiqiang shrugged helplessly: "Sure enough, I overestimated myself..."

His roommate patted him on the back and teased, "It's okay, losing the game isn't a big deal. Let's go to the cafeteria and see if all that's left is cabbage and tofu, I'll treat you to a good meal! Just to soothe your wounded heart!"

Zhao Zhiqiang laughed and cursed, "Get lost! I don't eat cabbage and tofu! I want spicy chicken!"

His roommate smiled and put his arm around Zhao Zhiqiang's shoulder.

"Come on, Bai Xiaohua likes spicy chicken. You're heartbroken, so you shouldn't touch what she likes! Let's go to the second cafeteria and have a couple of dishes cooked."

Zhao Zhiqiang and his roommate walked quickly out of the library, just in time to hear Lin Xiao and Bai Youyou's conversation. Their faces darkened, and they became even more depressed.

He turned to his roommate and whispered, "Never mind, I won't eat the stir-fry."

His roommate shook his head helplessly and laughed, "Alright, buddy, I'll eat cabbage and tofu with you to cool you down."

Lin Xiao and Bai Youyou walked on campus, attracting the attention of passersby.

It's mainly Bai Youyou; she's just too eye-catching.

Her aristocratic air and exquisite elegance, down to the last strand of her hair, made her seem to be on a completely different level from everyone else.

She was like someone with a heavy filter and beauty effect applied, while everyone else was just a blurred background.

Fortunately, Lin Xiao was no slouch either, otherwise he would have been just another nobody in no time.

Lin Xiao suppressed his urge to run away quickly and made small talk with the fairy-like junior.

One of his tasks was to help the female freshman adapt to university life better.

He ran away, and she was alone again.

As they were talking, Lin Xiao noticed that the Ganfan group was making plans to have a meal, and an idea popped into his head.

"Junior, they're making plans to eat in the group chat. How about we join them? I mentioned in the group chat that I'd treat them, and since I'm in a good mood today, I'll do it."

Bai Youyou paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Finally, she added, "I want to order one more dish than them."

Lin Xiao laughed and said, "Alright! What's the big deal? We must grant your request!"

So Lin Xiao's long fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed rapidly.

[@SmilingGodofWarrior @WhiteStripedWaves @GreatRocSpreadingWings @IronManWeiye Come quickly to the second floor of the second canteen! One stir-fried dish for each person, it's on me. Don't miss out! (Pinky promise emoji)]

Four emojis immediately flooded the group chat.

Smiling God of War: [Here comes the Strange Pig emoji pack!]

Great Roc Spreads Its Wings: [On the way. Aquaman riding a bike GIF]

White Streak in the Waves: [Coming Soon. Not really want to go to work emoji]

Steel Weiye: [Here I come. Xian Er running meme]

So the four of them quickly packed their things and set off with lightning speed, arriving at the cafeteria within three minutes of each other.

They arrived even 0.01 seconds earlier than Lin Xiao and Bai Youyou, who were already on their way.

Everyone ordered a dish, and the atmosphere during the meal was happy and lively.

Everyone expressed their gratitude to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao waved his hand and laughed, "Making money is about sharing it with friends, that's what makes us happy. We're all acquaintances, so don't be shy."

Bird adjusted his glasses and said, "I'll treat everyone to egg tarts at Xiaoximen."

We can't always let Ah Xiao treat us.

Bai Youyou whispered, "Then I'll treat everyone to milk tea."

Drinking milk tea makes people happier... right?

Sang Ting, linking arms with Bai Youyou, said with a grin, "Youyou, let's treat everyone to milk tea together. We can split the cost in half, okay?"

Bai Youyou was taken aback and subconsciously looked at Lin Xiao with a questioning look in her eyes.
