Chapter 171: – Breakfast
Early in the morning around 7 a.m., Lin Chen woke up due to his biological clock. He thought he would be the earliest to rise, only to find that Lin Jin was already up and playing gas under the bed.
"Brother, you're up so early?" Lin Chen hadn't stripped completely bare last night, having only removed his army overcoat before going to bed. Now, he flipped open the covers and climbed straight out of bed.
"Slept too much yesterday, woke up at 5 a.m." Lin Jin was engrossed in playing Dota 2 and didn't even turn his head to look at Lin Chen. He just reminded him, "Keep your voice down, Wu Min and Wen Xuan probably played until 2 or 3 a.m. before going to bed."
"Mm, I'll go freshen up." Lin Chen cast a curious glance at Lin Jin's computer screen. He had heard of the ga Dota before, but he didn't like the art style so he never played it. Besides, he was too busy with school and didn't have much ti to learn a new ga.
"Go, go. After I finish, let's go eat together." Lin Jin's left foot was stretched onto the chair, leg bent, as he rested his chin on his knee while contemplating how to survive longer after his character respawns.
Hmm, with Lin Jin's level of gaming skill, he shouldn't be thinking about killing anyone.
Lin Chen quickly finished brushing his teeth and washing his face with a cheap toothbrush and towel. After making another trip to the bathroom, he returned to the dorm to find that a big "Defeat" had appeared on Lin Jin's screen.
But Lin Jin never took winning or losing in gas too seriously. Although winning made him happy, losing didn't trigger negative emotions like it did for Wu Min.
"Let's go, ti for breakfast." Lin Jin draped the overcoat that was hanging in the wardrobe over his shoulders, put his phone in his pocket, rubbed his eyes, yawned, and then directly left the dorm.
Lin Chen hastily put on his army overcoat and followed Lin Jin out.
"When are you planning to confess to the person you have a crush on?" Lin Jin still led the way, his hands nonchalantly tucked into his pockets, shrugging his shoulders, enjoying the morning chill. "Be careful, soone else might snatch her away if you don't confess."
"I'll wait until college. Right now, we're all busy studying and don't have ti for relationships" Lin Chen followed diligently, responding, "And besides, high school relationships are prone to breaking up. If she and I really got together and then broke up, it would be quite painful."
"True, waiting until college to date is probably better" Lin Jin nodded in agreent with Lin Chen.
But Lin Chen suddenly asked back, "Do you have a girlfriend, brother?"
Lin Jin was montarily stunned by the question. He casually replied, "Not yet. I'm too short, what normal girl would be interested in ?"
Besides, I'll be turned into a woman by a black cat in the future... Wouldn't that be unfair to her if I actually had a girlfriend?
"But there was a girl who confessed to
before, and I turned her down" Lin Jin imdiately boasted to Lin Chen. "You should learn from . Look at your brother, I may be short and not that good-looking, but I still get confessions!"
Lin Jin was referring to the ti when he was at the sports field with Chen Shi, and she had hinted at her feelings for him.
"I've had a few too" Lin Chen nodded, continuing, "But I turned them all down."
What the hell? My younger brother is actually winning at life?
"I need to focus on my studies, I don't have ti for relationships. Besides, although they are pretty, dating them would definitely be expensive" Lin Chen said with an air of nonchalance, acting a bit smug.
Just like a younger brother of mine should be.
That's all Lin Jin could think to comfort himself as he glanced at Lin Chen's face, feeling even more bitter inside.
Why do we, born of the sa parents, look so different?
F*ck, I'm so jealous.
Lin Chen was indeed quite handso. It wasn't just his face, but the rugged masculinity he exuded that made him seem very reliable. However, Lin Jin was completely immune to his brother's charms, having grown up with him.
The school had only three storefronts for breakfast, one of which was a Shaxian snack shop. Lin Jin walked straight into the cafeteria and bought six at buns and two cups of soy milk from the store that offered Tianjin-style buns. Then he casually found a spot and sat down opposite Lin Chen.
The school's at buns were a rip-off, each was smaller than the size of a palm, and the at inside was so mushy it felt like a lot of flour had been mixed in. The taste was atrocious, as if the store were tarnishing the reputation of Tianjin buns.
However, if you didn't want greasy food for breakfast, this was the only option. The other store served fried pancakes and the like, but Lin Jin wasn't a fan of oily food.
"Is it enough?" Lin Jin handed four of the at buns to Lin Chen. Taking a big bite of the bun in his hand, he chewed, gulped down so soy milk, and asked, "Do you want to take so snacks with you this afternoon? The dinner on the high-speed train is expensive. I can buy you so bread or sothing to eat on the train."
Lin Chen hesitated for a mont before nodding, accepting Lin Jin's kind offer.
"Lin Jin!" A familiar figure abruptly plopped into the chair next to Lin Jin, wind trailing behind him. "I can't believe you're here this early for breakfast!"
"Long Lihao, can you not be stupid?" Lin Jin sighed. This Long Lihao was a nightmare for him. The guy was too effeminate, overly cutesy, and if he picked on him, would even cry. Just a hassle.
"Wow! Who's this handso guy?!"
Lin Jin, taken aback, cast a bewildered glance at Lin Chen before replying, "He's my younger brother."
"No way, not blood related, right? The two of you look completely different" Long Lihao quipped, shoving a at bun into his mouth as he spoke. "I ca to the school only because I'm going out with a girl today."
So, both Long Lihao and I look effeminate, huh? Why can he attract a bunch of girls while I seem to only attract guys?
Lin Jin twitched his mouth, turning his face away, not wanting to converse with the lady-killer Long Lihao.
"I'm leaving as soon as I finish eating! You go on with your date with this handso guy!" Long Lihao slapped Lin Jin's shoulder generously. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about you being gay."
"You're the gay one" Lin Jin mumbled, facepalming.
"I'm bisexual!" Long Lihao proclaid proudly, head held high, exuding an unexplainable sense of confidence.
Sitting on the floor, Lin Chen looked bewildered. Why couldn't he understand the conversation between these two guys?
