(Rewinding ti a day back from Ji Fanyin and Song Shiyus date.)
Bai Zhou thought that he had taken to heart Ji Xinxins request for him to never et Ji Fanyin again. He couldnt stop himself from checking that darned little app from ti to ti, but he did hold himself back from making a reservation.
Who could have thought that a bastard would reserve Ji Fanyins entire day in a single breath?
Bai Zhou felt like an indignant shopper on Singles Day. He had already added a heavily discounted big-ticket item into his shopping cart and was considering whether he should confirm it or not when the item suddenly ran out of stock.
Was it Song Shiyu? That disgusting man I t at that banquet? That wheelchair guy in Greece? Or did she further expand her client list, just like how she brought
in as a client?
Bai Zhou watched as the reservation schedule turned from a pending light green into a confird olive green within less than a minute.
Goddamnit! Ji Fanyin must be online! Theres no way she could have approved it that quickly otherwise! Is she in such dire lack of money?
In a fit of anger, Bai Zhou selected all fifteen hours available for the day after tomorrow, but his finger stalled to a halt before he could confirm his reservation request. Ji Xinxins words surfaced in his mind, pouring a pail of cold water over his heated mind.
In the end, he threw his phone on his bed out of sheer frustration.
He couldnt break a promise that he had already made.
He stomped to his study table, dragged out the chair noisily, and flipped open his textbook to begin revision.
It was approaching the end of the academic sester, and all of the Year 2 students were going to face an onslaught of examinations. Bai Zhou was no exception to the rule.
Bai Zhous roommate looked at him curiously and asked, Didnt you say that you can pass the exams without revising?
For so reason, Bai Zhou found himself recalling how Ji Xinxin said that Ji Fanyin used to be incredibly good at her studies, but she had given up on herself sowhere along the way.
He used to believe those words at face value, but right now, he felt that even Ji Fanyins diffident appearance was feigned!
Is passing all that matters? spat Bai Zhou with gritted teeth. Im aiming for full marks!
The roommate was baffled by Bai Zhous sudden declaration. He clasped his fist with feigned respect and said, Wow, I never thought that you would have that in you. All the best Are you sure that you arent just agitated over sothing you saw on your phone?
Agitated your head! Bai Zhou flipped a page on his book. Why cant I be passionate about my studies?
Only those who were born with a good temper could beco Bai Zhous roommate and still get along with him.
The roommate scratched his head. Alright alright, whatever floats your boat. Ah right, didnt you ask
about Chen Yunsheng a while back?
Who? asked Bai Zhou. His eyes were still fixed on his textbook.
Chen Yunsheng. That senior whos a year older than us. You marched up to
the other day looking like you were going to murder soone and asked
a bunch of questions about him. You forgot about it? The roommate was dumbfounded.
Those words successfully evoked Bai Zhous mories. He imdiately turned his head over and asked, Whats wrong with that fellow?
Soone in my chat group said that its his birthday tomorrow.
Bai Zhou widened his eyes in realization.
Right How could I have forgotten about Chen Yunsheng?
Another roommate from the upper bunk bed peeked down and joined in the gossip session. I also heard that a senior confessed to him earlier today, but he rejected her.
Now that I think about it, Chen Yunsheng is pretty popular, but I dont think he has ever had a girlfriend
Dont we have soone like that in our room too?
Hahaha! Truer words have never been spoken! Actually, dont you think that the two of them are quite similar to each other?
Being compared with Chen Yunsheng sent Bai Zhous anger shooting through the roof. Shut up!
The two roommates exchanged glances and shrugged nonchalantly. Well, Chen Yunsheng already has soone he likes. Didnt the basketball team win the championship a while back? I heard he gave his champion dal to that person.
Those words spurred a premonition in Bai Zhous mind.
Could the person he gave the dal to possibly be
Their fourth roommate, who coincidentally happened to return at this mont, overheard their conversation and excitedly joined in, I heard that it was a babe. Such a pity that the competition wasnt held in our school, or else I would have headed over to take a look.
I know who it is, said the roommate on the upper bunk bed with a gleeful tone. It was trending on our school forum. Tsk tsk, looks like the two of you dont know how to do your research.
Amazing, my bro. No wonder people call you the gossip king! Quick, tell us who it is!
Heh! Think about it, why would I say that they are similar? Doesnt our Lil Bai like Senior Ji Xinxin? The woman Chen Yunsheng fancies is Ji Xinxins twin sister! I saw the photo they posted on the forum, and the two of them look exactly the sa!
Holy shit, are you serious? You know, the last ti we went to the mall to have hot pot
With his premonition confird, Bai Zhou was no longer in a mood to continue listening to his roommates gossip. He quickly accessed the forum page to check that old trending post.
By searching for the keywords, champion dal, the very first result was a post titled Enlighten , please. What does it an for a man to give the champion dal he painstakingly won to a woman?.
Bai Zhou tapped into the post and impatiently scrolled all the way down till a photo appeared. Without enlarging the photo, he could easily recognize the won standing by the railings of the spectator stand.
Ji Fanyin has never smiled at
in such a way before, be it during or outside of service hours.
After an intent stare at Ji Fanyin, he turned his attention to the jarring dal around her neck, followed by Chen Yunshengs face. His eyes slowly narrowed as he murmured, Chen Yunsheng I feel like Ive seen him sowhere before.
One of the roommates shot him a peculiar look. Yeah, didnt I just say it? Do you rember the day we had hot pot at the mall? We bumped into him and Senior Ji Xinxins older sister. She treated us to ice cream.
Bai Zhou:
Bai Zhou gripped his phone tightly as he ntally berated himself for being an utter idiot.
Speaking of hot pot, Im getting a craving for it again. Shall we head there again tomorrow? I need to drop by the bookstore and buy so reference books anyway.
Ah, I also need to buy a set of drawing pencils. Lil Bai, why dont you co with us? Youre close with the manager of that art studio. Hehe, you might just be able to get a discount for .
Bai Zhou felt incredibly irritated. He shot to his feet and grunted, Ill take a puff.
Hey, smoking is banned in the dormitory building
