Chapter 25 Criteria for Choosing a Partner
On the way back to Peking University.
The atmosphere between the two men was also very serious.
Although they weren't particularly close before, at least they maintained a polite facade.
But at this moment, they both tacitly chose to remain silent.
Even a hint of impatience could be seen on Shi Jin's face.
I tapped the steering wheel lightly with my fingers, feeling really bored, so I started playing music.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the Kyoto University parking lot.
The two got out of the car.
"Senior Shi Jin, thank you for bringing me back."
Fu Nansheng still politely thanked him.
That was all. After saying that, he turned around and prepared to go back to his dormitory.
"Wait a moment."
Fu Nansheng stopped and asked, puzzled, "Senior, is there anything else?"
After remaining silent the whole way, Shi Jin finally couldn't hold back and spoke up: "Stay away from that white pearl, she's not right for you."
Fu Nansheng never expected that Shi Jin would utter such a sentence.
I was shocked and also a little annoyed.
"What do you mean by that, senior?"
"It means exactly what it says. If you want to pursue Bai Zhenzhu, you'd better give up that idea as soon as possible."
Shi Jin adopted an inscrutable, all-knowing, and disdainful demeanor.
"Senior, you seem to really dislike pearls?"
Do you hate it?
It's annoying, isn't it?
However, as a man, he couldn't appear petty, so he changed the subject, saying, "I was just trying to give you advice. Whether you listen or not is up to you. I'm going back now."
A very strange conversation.
But Fu Nansheng had a vague feeling that the answer to the last question was different from what he had expected.
Shi Jin doesn't seem to genuinely dislike Bai Zhenzhu; rather, it seems more like...
...
The annual Kyoto University Basketball League was fast approaching.
Today happens to be the match between the art school and Kyoto University.
Li Qianni, as the cheerleading captain of the Peking University basketball team, went with the team to the Peking University Gymnasium to participate in a basketball game.
Bai Zhenzhu, at Gu Siming's repeated invitation, took a day off to go to Peking University to watch the game.
Actually, there was another very important reason: she knew that not only Fu Nansheng, but also Shi Jin, were on the Peking University basketball team.
Wouldn't it be interesting if she could catch all the nets she cast on the same day?
Sitting next to Bai Zhenzhu, Yin Jiaxi looked at the three exceptionally handsome men on the field and asked in confusion, "Zhenzhu, who are you cheering for later?"
Bai Zhenzhu raised an eyebrow indifferently, "Who cares who wins or loses? I'm too lazy to cheer them on. Let them rely on their own abilities."
"Pearl, you're so heartless. But speaking of which, which of these three men best fits your criteria for a partner?"
Yin Jiaxi had seen too many of Bai Zhenzhu's suitors end up as cannon fodder.
I'm really curious what kind of person a "love-immune" person like Bai Zhenzhu would like.
Bai Zhenzhu pretended to think for a moment, then said with a simple and cute smile, "I will like whoever is willing to die for me."
"Zhen, Pearl, your standards... are a bit scary! What era are we living in? Where can you find that kind of romance like in Qiong Yao's novels anymore!"
“Jiaxi, do you know? From childhood to adulthood, I’ve never had anyone willing to back me up. I’m used to pleasing others, used to compromising, used to not being loved. So when it comes to love, I only need to be like a moth drawn to a flame, as long as I’m reckless, he not only has to live for me, die for me, but also always stand behind me and never betray me…”
"Pearl, to be honest, men like that seem to have gone extinct long ago."
Anyway, she didn't believe that such love could exist in the world.
Yin Jiaxi couldn't quite see through Bai Zhenzhu. She knew that Bai Zhenzhu seemed to be playing around with people and had no responsibility towards anyone, but she never expected that she would be such a traditional and stubborn person at heart.
This abnormal obsession, however, may bring some consequences for Pearl in the future.
...
Before the competition started, Gu Siming sent a WeChat message to Bai Zhenzhu.
"Pearl, after the competition, I'd like to treat you to dinner. I have something very important I want to tell you in person."
Bai Zhenzhu replied, "Okay, focus on playing, good luck!"
A short while later, Bai Zhenzhu received another WeChat message, this time from Fu Nansheng.
"Pearl, I'm sure I'll win this game. If I win, can you grant me one request?"
Without a second thought, Bai Zhenzhu replied, "Okay."
Yin Jiaxi looked at these WeChat messages from the side, making "tsk tsk tsk" sounds repeatedly.
"Pearl, can't you tell that both of them want to confess their feelings to you after the competition? And you're already saying yes to them? Aren't you afraid of things going wrong?"
Bai Zhenzhu looked at the two spirited boys on the court and smiled smugly.
"I have no right to stop them from pursuing happiness. If they want to confess their feelings to me, then let them. It's not like I'll lose anything."
"What about Jin then? Don't you want to hook him anymore?"
"Wasn't I just trying to hook him?"
Bai Zhenzhu looked intently at Shi Jin on the court, who was not only spirited but also arrogant, and her smile deepened.
Yin Jiaxi couldn't understand what Bai Zhenzhu was trying to create.
She pursed her lips and started focusing on the game.
The basketball teams from the School of Arts are still quite far behind those from Kyoto University.
After all, there are relatively few male students in their art school, but there are many male students at Kyoto University.
Therefore, Kyoto University won by a large margin over the Faculty of Arts.
Bai Zhenzhu had no objection to the result of the competition.
He got up, preparing to leave.
But then he suddenly saw Li Qianni, that green tea bitch, walk up to Shi Jin and considerately wipe his sweat and hand him water.
She's clearly a cheerleader for the art academy, yet she went to fawn over the rival's team.
Did Li Qianni forget her brain when she went out?
Bai Zhenzhu rolled her eyes dramatically while seated.
