When Qian Duoduo saw these three identical-looking people standing in front of her, she was so surprised that her mouth dropped open. She knew something was wrong from their attire, but now her eyes were wide open. She circled around them, unable to tell who the real Lu Yuan, Lu Jin, and Lu Yu were.
Lu Yuan and his two brothers had just returned from the barbershop when Qian Duoduo blocked their way at their doorstep. She stood there with her arms crossed, looking at the three identical faces with suspicion, and questioned one of them, "What are you three up to? Are you planning something bad again?"
Faced with her mother's questioning, Lu Yu was unusually frank and recounted without hesitation what her older brother had gone through.
Qian Duoduo knew that the one telling the story so vividly was the fourth brother, Lu Yu. Moreover, with his embellished description, she understood why they did it. Although she was a little annoyed with the girl, after all, for Lu Yuan, who had just turned twenty, such a troublesome romantic prospect was something he wanted to avoid at all costs and didn't want to get involved with.
After listening, Qian Duoduo nodded thoughtfully and said slowly, "Alright, since you guys are so enthusiastic about this farce, then go ahead and have some fun. But remember, don't go too far!"
Everyone was studying at the same university, and it was obvious to everyone that the girl was interested in him. However, she hadn't managed to win Lu Yuan's heart in the slightest for so long. Faced with this situation, Qian Duoduo could only helplessly tell the girl that he couldn't help her. It seemed that this person was not Lu Yuan's type, so it would be best to end this relationship as soon as possible, so as to give his boss a peaceful and quiet learning environment.
With their mother's tacit approval, the three Lu brothers dressed exactly the same as when they were children and walked into the campus of the Foreign Languages University, as if they had returned to the carefree time of their childhood.
Lu Yuan, carrying a backpack, stepped into the campus, intending to return to his male dormitory first. After all, the start of the semester was just around the corner, and as a member of the student council, he needed to come and make arrangements as soon as possible.
Just then, a pretty girl rushed towards him like a gust of wind. When she stopped steadily not far from Lu Yuan, she looked at him with a smile and said in a sweet voice, "Lu Yuan, it's almost time for new student registration. I've also volunteered to help welcome the new students!"
"Lu Yuan" simply nodded at the girl without saying a word, and walked past her. The girl didn't seem to find anything unusual, since Lu Yuan had always treated her this way. She chattered incessantly behind "Lu Yuan," but Lu Jin didn't say anything, as she knew her boss's temper very well.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan and Yu Jie were not from the same department, so their classrooms were quite far apart. She stood quietly in place, gently escorting "Lu Yuan" into the classroom.
After Lu Yuan's figure disappeared, she slowly turned around, preparing to leave. However, she hadn't taken more than a few steps when a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her: "Xiao Jie, what are you doing here?" It turned out to be Yu Jie's roommate.
Her roommate leaned closer to her with a mysterious look and whispered, "I just saw Lu Yuan! He was chatting and laughing with a girl at the school gate."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jie frowned slightly and quickly retorted, "Don't talk nonsense! I clearly saw Lu Yuan walk into the classroom with my own eyes just now."
My roommate, however, insisted, widening her eyes and saying, "It's true! Absolutely true! I definitely didn't see it wrong!"
Although Yu Jie was somewhat suspicious, she still shook her head in disbelief. After all, she and Lu Yuan had just broken up, so why would she be at the school gate chatting and laughing with other girls?
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, a figure gradually came into Yu Jie's view. The figure was dressed in the exact same clothes as Lu Yuan from before, and was walking slowly with light steps. Yu Jie stared intently, then was immediately stunned—wasn't that Lu Yuan himself? She opened her mouth wide in disbelief, and instinctively turned her head to look at the teaching building not far away. Had she imagined it?
While Yu Jie was filled with doubt, Lu Yu had already walked up to him. Without thinking, he rushed forward and asked urgently, "Lu Yuan, didn't you just go into the study room? How come..." Before he could finish speaking, he swallowed the words back down, because Lu Yuan was just looking at him expressionlessly, his eyes as if he were looking at a stranger, with a hint of amusement.
Lu Yu glanced at him but didn't say anything. Instead, she walked past him and continued towards the study room. Yu Jie was completely dumbfounded this time. Lu Yu found her expression somewhat amusing. Fortunately, she wasn't Lu Yuan. Otherwise, he might have lost control of his expression and revealed his weakness.
Yu Jie stood there, her gaze fixed on Lu Yuan's receding figure until he disappeared around the corner of the classroom building. She frowned slightly, thinking to herself, "This guy seems a little off today."
As Yu Jie strolled casually toward her classroom, she was still lost in thought, puzzled by Lu Yuan's earlier amusing behavior. Just then, a series of clear, noisy sounds came from ahead. Looking up, she saw three or four girls huddled together, excitedly discussing something. Their chattering voices sounded like a flock of cheerful birds singing on a branch.
One of the girls exclaimed excitedly, "You know what? Senior Lu was actually playing basketball just now! Wow, he was so cool!"
Another girl chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, especially that three-pointer he just shot! It was like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, hitting me right in the heart!" She then covered her heart with both hands, looking completely dazed.
Upon hearing this, Yu Jie stopped in her tracks. She thought to herself, "Wasn't he just over at the study room? That's in the opposite direction from the basketball court, so why is he on the basketball court now?" Unable to contain her curiosity any longer, she quickly turned and ran towards the basketball court the girls had mentioned. However, just as she was about to sprint to the gymnasium, she suddenly felt a tightness in her arm.
It turned out that her roommate had noticed and stopped her in time. The roommate anxiously reminded her, "Yu Jie, where are you going? We need to go to Professor Hu's place now. Professor Hu isn't someone you can just talk to."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jie turned her head to look in the direction of the basketball court, a hint of hesitation and reluctance in her eyes. But in the end, reason prevailed over emotion, and she nodded helplessly, letting her roommate pull her towards the teaching building.
When they arrived at Professor Hu's office, panting, they saw him walking out slowly with steady steps.
Seeing this, Yu Jie had no choice but to stop and try to calm his slightly disordered breathing caused by running, and then help Professor Hu with his work.
