Chapter 16
“Senior Xiao Chen, I like you!” A girl with braids and tiny dimples on her cheeks blocked Xiao Chen’s way. She seemed clever and had very good skin, giving off the feeling of a little girl next door. This feeling was refreshing and clean, and the girl was shorter than Xiao Chen by a head.
Xiao Chen blanked out.
When he heard the word “Senior”, he would always think of that person, the one who had told him to wait for him, but had been dead for three years.
Xiao Chen pursed his lips and shook his head as he said, “I’m sorry.”
The girl was stunned. With one glance, anyone could tell that she was a little miss who had been pampered since birth. She had never been rejected, so when Xiao Chen did so, her eyes reddened. But she quickly recovered and stuffed the drink she had bought into Xiao Chen’s arms, before running away without looking back.
Xiao Chen was a bit absentminded as he held the drink. He glanced in the girl’s direction and silently clasped the drink.
“F*ck, it’s Senior Xiao Chen! The real person looks too much better than the photos!”
“Senior Xiao Chen is really so kind! He’s studying design, and his clothes are matched exactly like a celebrity’s!”
“I’m crying, I didn’t imagine that I could meet the living Senior Xiao Chen. I heard that for the whole last semester, he was away at an internship. I didn’t expect that he would come back as soon as the new semester began!”
“Hmph! Such a good-looking senior, see for yourself how many girls peeked at him just now!”
Discussions rose and fell one after another, and the large majority of those partic.i.p.ating were female. Xiao Chen sighed in his heart. He had long grown used to constantly being watched like a monkey.
Today was the first day of university for the first years, so there were many immature and unfamiliar faces.
Xiao Chen had a monotonous lifestyle and a flat att.i.tude towards everyone. People who didn’t know him well would believe that he was gentle, but those that did would say he was merely aloof.
Just when Xiao Chen was ready to go, someone called him.
“Xiao Chen!” A voice shouted his name extremely loudly.
Xiao Chen hesitantly turned around.
“You were fooled, okay? You didn’t think that you would be caught by me! Let’s go! Today, all the freshman girls are starting school, so help my club recruit new members!” It was one of Xiao Chen’s dormitory roommates, a rough Northeasterner named Li Guo.
Xiao Chen seldom refused others in such matters, and Li Guo had deliberately asked him because he noticed this.
Xiao Chen helplessly nodded.
There was a throng of both boys and girls gathered on the basketball court. During these hot days, there were few such scenes in the school.
“This is too weird, why are there so many people at the basketball court today?” Li Guo was a heavy gossiper and very outgoing. He had always liked to join in on lively things. “Isn’t it simply playing basketball? Weird!”
After he said this, he wanted to pull Xiao Chen and walk forward. Xiao Chen wasn’t comfortable in crowded situations, and especially when it was hot. He said softly, “Go, I’ll just wait for you here.”
Li Guo knew his temperament and didn’t force the other. By himself, he went ahead.
Xiao Chen could hear the continuous screams and cheers on the basketball court from a long distance away. The basketball hit the ground with a thump, and was followed by the girls’ excited shrieks.
Goal! Goal! Another goal!
Xiao Chen’s gaze was light as he glanced at the situation on the court.
“Ah!” Something happened, and suddenly everyone exclaimed together at the same time. Before Xiao Chen could react, he saw that they were all staring at him in horror. A basketball was about to collide with his body.
Xiao Chen was startled and used his hands to protect his head.
The basketball didn’t reach him as expected.
A black shadow stood in front of him, having moved so fast that it was incredible. Even Xiao Chen was taken aback.
“……”
“Are you alright?”
Xiao Chen slightly opened his mouth.
The boy had a pair of gray eyes, mature facial features, and thin lips that were perfect.
“You…” Before Xiao Chen could finish speaking, the boy turned back indifferently and threw the ball he had just caught towards the basketball court.
“Clunk.” Three points.
The audience was silent.
The boy returned to face Xiao Chen with a smile again. “Senior, let’s go together.”
Xiao Chen was shocked. As if he had lost his soul, he let the boy take his hand and head to a place with less people. Even as Li Guo yelled loudly behind him, he didn’t listen. He could only feel the warmth of the palm touching his own.
“Xu Sheng?” Xiao Chen tentatively said, uncertainty in his expression.
To be honest, this person, except for the gray eyes, was nothing like Xu Sheng. His overall appearance, face, and disposition were different. But somehow, Xiao Chen already thought in his heart that he was Xu Sheng.
The other party chuckled, “It’s me.” He stopped, gazing deeply at Xiao Chen. “Senior, I’m back.”
A University’s formal post was pushed up again.
The post’s t.i.tle was: I’m crying, the school gra.s.s and the computer department gra.s.s are together.
Topic creator: Foreword: Don’t look me up, I’d like to keep a pair of underpants for the New Year.
Topic creator: Don’t ask me who I am, I can only say that I am an admirer of the school gra.s.s!! My mood at this moment is extremely complicated! Why, you ask? I f*cking saw the school gra.s.s being pressed against a tree and kissed by the department gra.s.s! (Ten thousand critical hits to single dogs.)
In the beginning, I couldn’t figure out who they were because it was nighttime. It was also in the little forest near the cafeteria, where few would go at night. Back then, I could see two people from very far away. And obviously two men!
At that time, I went WTF. My curiosity was killing me. I thought that the pair had hid because they were too shy, which meant that they would not allow me to meet them. The result? The result was that in the next second, I observed the department gra.s.s hugging the cute school gra.s.s as they walked out of the little forest! Ignoring me the entire time! I cried!
I can guarantee that the department gra.s.s definitely recognized who I am! He just wanted to show me!
Why? Because I have confessed to the school gra.s.s before (cold face), because I am in the same department as the school gra.s.s, and I have a cla.s.s with him. I confessed to him in the cla.s.sroom, but the department gra.s.s was sitting by him when I did so! I was wondering then…but I didn’t imagine…
But this is all not the point! The following is!
How do I say this, this is the first time I’ve seen the school gra.s.s smiling so joyfully! The school gra.s.s has always been gentle and elegant. He is very good to everyone, so good that it almost makes one feel that it is false. But he is exploding in Su, and is immensely skilled at poking girls’ hearts! He has a light smile and slightly raised lucky phoenix eyes, the kind that will melt hearts! But the smile I saw this time was the real smile of someone happy to their bones. When the two of them looked at each other a little, they freely showed their scorching hot feelings!!
I’m dead!! Really!! The Su blasted away this old lady’s young heart!!!
So, the topic creator was full of questions and boldly asked the school gra.s.s on the second day.
After the school gra.s.s heard my question, he actually smiled again, my G.o.d!
He just said one word. “En.”
AHHHHHHH!
Anyways! In short! I love this couple!
Topic creator: Yes, it’s me again. I’m here to share the things that have to be said between the school gra.s.s and the department gra.s.s!
Ever since I discovered the relationship between the two, I have been really fed full by the dog food.
Now that it’s winter, I have honestly been accustomed to lovers giving each other scarves or gloves or whatever as gifts.
But! Do you guys know what I saw?
As the male G.o.d of our department! Straight A student! He wasn’t listening in cla.s.s, and was secretly doing something else! What was he doing?
Oh, I’m certain that you have already guessed what it was! Knitting a scarf!
Afterwards, I watched with wide eyes as the school gra.s.s knit that scarf for three whole days! The following day, it appeared around the department gra.s.s’s neck! What else can I say???
Is this not true love?
Topic creator: It’s me, it’s me! It’s me again! I’ve come again!
The focus of today’s breaking news is the department gra.s.s!!! This man is d*mn sweet!!
Truthfully, it might be because I encounter the school gra.s.s more, so I only noticed his actions. In my heart, I had always thought that the school gra.s.s was the one who contributed the most to the relationship.
But today, my beliefs were completely overturned!!
Many people must have heard of the event today. I’ll tell you guys, I happened to be at the scene!! I’ll recount the plot for you guys!
At that time, our school gra.s.s and department gra.s.s were separated by about two meters. The school gra.s.s was on the phone. So when the car came, he was clearly dumbfounded. He stopped functioning and froze in place.
The department gra.s.s was like a cheetah, and that speed, oh my G.o.d! Too amazing! He rushed up and pulled the school gra.s.s into his embrace, tightly hugging him!
You guys all know about this, right? But there’s actually more!!
The department gra.s.s was crying as he held the school gra.s.s! I actually saw the school gra.s.s repeatedly coaxing and comforting him!
In that moment, really, I thought that their world couldn’t fit anyone else, and they were the perfect match!
I can only say that they will be together for a long time! Unmistakably! I have very accurate vision! Their feelings are too real! Let the others beside them be envious of this powerful love!
“Senior.”
“Hm?”
“I love you.”
“Well, I love you too!”
T/N: That wraps up arc 1! Did anyone else notice that it started with an online post, and ended with an online post? I was grinning the entire time I was translating this. (´⌣`ʃƪ)
