Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Zhou would usually refuse to eat with strangers.
However, since he did not have to pay for the food, he decided to accept the invitation.
Okay, just kidding.
s.h.i.+ Shang finally got a girlfriend, so Lu Zhou had to give him some respect and attend the dinner.
After leaving the dorm, Lu Zhou, Huang Guangming, and Liu Rui all reached a consensus with their eyes.
We’re getting wasted!
Agreed!
…
s.h.i.+ Shang ordered a table at the fish restaurant.
The guys from Dorm 201 arrived, and soon after, the girls from Dorm 406 also arrived.
Everyone sat around the table. They were all nervous in the beginning. However, soon after, everyone opened up and started to chat happily.
Especially Huang Guangming and s.h.i.+ Shang. They were getting more and more talkative as time pa.s.sed by.
The quality of girls at the School of Foreign Languages was indeed high.
A girl with long hair named Xiao Yunyun sat next to Lu Zhou. Sitting next to her was a girl named Qian Hua. She had short hair and was watching something on her phone with her friends. Deng Le sat next to them, and she was wearing round-rimmed gla.s.ses. She looked very delicate.
Huang Guangming might have been interested in one of the girls, so he asked, “What are you guys looking at?”
Qian Hua looked at Huang Guangming like he was an alien before she said, “Haven’t you seen Strongest Genius Student before? It’s really popular! Geniuses form a team for subjects such as mathematics, physics, biology, and chemistry. You are obviously a dumb student if you haven’t seen this before.”
“… Then these six teams are from different countries?” asked Lu Zhou.
Qian Hua looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “You’ve seen it?”
“You could say so…”
Lu Zhou smiled and looked away.
He actually had not seen it before. The show’s production team wanted to hire him, but he rejected them. He was disinterested in performing on stage, plus the pay was not enough for him to sell out.
Huang Guangming was unhappy to hear himself being described as an idiot student and he said, “What kind of a reality scientific show is that? I bet the students on the show aren’t as smart as Zhou!”
“Pfft, no way he’s smarter than Wu Yan!”
Huang Guangming asked, “Who is Wu Yan?”
“You don’t even know Wu Yan? The youngest Chinese PhD student at the University of Auckland! MVP of his team! Genius mathematician!”
Lu Zhou: ? ? ?
Genius mathematician?
So me?
After that, the two started to argue whether or not Lu Zhou was smarter than Wu Yan.
Lu Zhou did not really care who was smarter. He just thought that these two were unexpectedly well matched as a couple.
Both the teasing type?
Suddenly, Lu Zhou realized a very serious problem.
Wait a minute. If this continues, the number of single guys in our dorm will become fewer and fewer?
What if I become the only guy without a girlfriend…
Liu Rui noticed that Lu Zhou was staring at him, so he asked, “What?”
“Nothing…” said Lu Zhou as he shook his head.
Thank G.o.d, he’ll definitely stay single with me.
I don’t have to worry.
Liu Rui: ? ? ?
Soon after, the food came.
The boys of Dorm 201 had not started eating yet, so they asked the waiter for some beer.
Huang Guangming opened two bottles of beer and placed them on the table. He then poured everyone a gla.s.s before raising his gla.s.s to the dorm leader.
Huang Guangming, “Brother Fei, thanks for remembering us, toast!”
He did not sound very sincere.
However, s.h.i.+ Shang did not care. Instead, he raised his cup up and said, “Toast!”
Liu Rui went on and said, “I hope you two stay together forever!”
Liu Rui then said, “Toast!”
Up next was Lu Zhou, and the girls looked at him with interest.
Lu Zhou wanted to say “Toast” as well, but he realized something, so he stopped himself.
s.h.i.+ Shang thought that Lu Zhou did not want him to get too drunk, so he said, “Zhou, you’re too nice. I can still handle my alcohol!”
w.a.n.g Jingya said with a distressed voice, “Take it slow with the drinking.”
s.h.i.+ Shang waved his hand, “It’s okay!”
Lu Zhou said, “Then… Toast!”
s.h.i.+ Shang and Lu Zhou touched gla.s.ses.
Lu Zhou thought, “Why do the two girls next to me look disappointed?”
The food came and everyone was drinking and eating. Huang Guangming and Liu Rui had an agreement to attack s.h.i.+ Shang, and they wanted to get s.h.i.+ Shang wasted.
Xiao Yunyun poked Lu Zhou’s arm and asked quietly, “Why do you guys call him Brother Fei?”
Before Lu Zhou could speak, Liu Rui asked, “Do you want to hear why?”
Liu Rui had a strange smile, so Xiao Yunyun quickly shook her head.
Lu Zhou said in his heart.
You can’t converse for sh*t, you’re going to be lonely forever.
Everyone was having a great time, especially Huang Guangming. He even got Qian Hua’s number.
Even though nothing would happen, his gains were still greater than Liu Rui.
He looked at Lu Zhou and thought the same.
In the blink of an eye, the two bottles of beer were empty.
Lu Zhou was not worried about Huang Guangming, but he was worried that s.h.i.+ Shang could not keep up.
s.h.i.+ Shang was downing gla.s.ses left and right.
This was the first time Lu Zhou saw him drinking this much.
Lu Zhou was really worried, and he was about to discourage him.
However, at this moment, Liu Rui suddenly slammed his head on the table.
“F*ck, Liu Rui, what happened?”
Huang Guangming’s eyes widened and he stopped drinking to check up on Liu Rui.
s.h.i.+ Shang was drunk. He smiled at his girlfriend and said, “See, I told you, I’m not going to be the first one to pa.s.s out!”
Three seconds later.
s.h.i.+ Shang collapsed as well.
