Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 386 - 234: Seeing You, My Desk Mate, Again

"Hello, are you also heading to Shaolin Temple?"

Whether it was his past life or this life, this was one of the rare occasions when Li Ang initiated conversation with a girl.

It wasn’t that he was sexually attracted, but the girl in front of him just happened to be Li Ang’s high school desk mate for three years. Even in this world, they should never have t before, but that didn’t stop Li Ang from wanting to chat with her.

Gao Ranran was stunned for a mont, with her mouth slightly open. Before she had decided what to say, her tall, university roommate had already sent her a playful smile.

"Uh... yes, we’ve recently finished our classes and decided to travel for fun," she responded.

Gao Ranran didn’t know why, but if this had been before, with her socially anxious character, she would have dreaded such interactions with strangers. Yet today, she unexpectedly answered and even added an explanation afterwards.

Seeing Gao Ranran like this, Li Ang found it amusing. Even in another world, his desk mate still had the character of sobody with social anxiety.

In fact, the forr Li Ang wasn’t much better than her, but oddly enough, two similarly introverted people had many common topics of interest, and they were each other’s few friends.

However, after graduating high school and heading off to different cities, they lost touch more and more, only occasionally chatting online. Once they started working, it was even rare to contact each other twice a year.

Gao Ranran’s roommate looked on, with a giggly expression, while on the other side, the group of employees who ca with Li Ang were watching from not far away.

In fact, they had seldom seen such a scene because, considering Li Ang’s overall conditions—his looks, height, physique, wealth, achievents... taking out just one aspect, he was the type countless won would throw themselves at.

"Then... how about joining us? I heard there’s so sort of Buddhist event today, it only happens once a year, and it might be nice to go see it," Li Ang invited.

"Hmm... sure."

If Li Ang’s hearing hadn’t been so good, he probably wouldn’t have heard Gao Ranran’s response, which was as faint as a mosquito’s.

She indeed planned to visit the Buddhist event today, but mainly to accompany a roommate who was interested in Buddhist culture.

And her roommate seed as if she had discovered a new continent, showing an exaggerated expression on her face.

She then quickly nudged Gao Ranran in the waist, signaling her to take out her phone and exchange contact information.

Usually, she wasn’t interested in n who flirted with her, but she couldn’t help it; this guy was just too handso. His aura was completely distinct in the crowd, and that skin of his, she didn’t know what skincare products he used. At first, she thought he was wearing makeup, but upon closer inspection, she realized he was bare-faced.

This level of handso was sothing she wouldn’t usually have the courage to speak to, but to her astonishnt, this stroke of dumb luck had fallen upon her roommate.

With advantages co disadvantages, though; the handso ones often play around, so she hoped her naive roommate wouldn’t suffer too much. Well, maybe it’s okay if she does. Considering his looks, it’s hard to say who would be at a disadvantage. Since she’s anyway bound to learn about relationships, she might as well go for a handso one and just make sure to take proper precautions.

Gao Ranran was unaware that in just this short ti, her roommate’s mind had raced to think of their breakup post-dating. Her hand had just reached the phone in her pocket, but she was still struggling with whether to take it out. The conflict in her mind made her freeze as if she was stuck.

Li Ang smiled, seeing that her nervous responses were exactly like before, and took the initiative to take out his phone, suggesting they add each other on WeChat.

"I’m Li Ang."

"Gao Ranran."

As both were adding each other on WeChat, the other two roommates who had gone to buy water returned.

Upon arriving, they saw their socially anxious dorm mate exchanging WeChat with a man, startling the eldest girl in the dorm who quickly whispered to the tall roommate, asking what was going on.

"What else could it be? We just happened to et along the way and started chatting and adding WeChat. Looks like little Ranran has run into so romance luck."

The other roommate, who had delicate makeup and dress that seed indifferent to the temperature, had a strange expression but didn’t say anything.

"What about you?... Did you also co out to play after the end of the college term?"

Gao Ranran finally mustered the courage after a while and asked a question, thereby using up quite a bit of her limited budget for talking to strangers.

Li Ang shook his head, "I haven’t gone to college yet. I guess you could say I’m on a break from high school right now. Ca here to take care of so things and to enjoy so sightseeing as well."

"Then, you’re a junior. You might consider our university," the tall roommate chid in, giving Gao Ranran a smile to show her support.

Li Ang shook his head again, "I don’t have plans for college at the mont. Maybe I’ll have the chance to visit your school soti in the future."

"You’re not planning to go to college?"

Even the most mature-looking big sister among them couldn’t help but voice her confusion.

Li Ang didn’t explain further, and they didn’t ask more. After all, they weren’t familiar enough with each other to that extent.

But it was quite apparent that Gao Ranran’s roommates changed their attitude towards him.

After all, among the young people in China, those with only high school education are relatively rare. Even if one has poor grades, they would usually attend a community college.
