Vivian had already hidden behind Gu Yan, whispering, "Hello Senior Lu, goodbye Senior Lu."
Lu Yu: "..."
Gu Yan knew what was going on; it must be because this Senior Lu was too attractive, drawing too much attention. If that senior sister saw Vivian talking to him again, there was no telling what kind of fuss she would kick up.
She politely nodded at Lu Yu and then quickly walked away, pulling Vivian with her.
Lu Yu’s eyes gradually darkened. He didn’t rember offending this Vivian, on the contrary, the young girl had thanked him profusely last ti, expressing her gratitude.
So, where had things gone wrong?
His roommate, standing beside him, sighed, "Ah, this young Miss from the Gu Family, she really is beautiful! I’ve only seen her on StarNet before, but seeing her in reality, she’s even more beautiful than she is online!"
What’s most important is that she’s not aloof; she always seems gracious and approachable. Ah, it’s really hard not to like a girl like that.
Lu Yu felt his roommate’s assessnt was quite fair. He had seen other daughters from noble families; those whose status couldn’t compare with Gu Yan’s, yet they were always arrogant and commanding.
Gu Yan has a certain delicate quality too, but hers isn’t spoiled; it’s an intrinsic sort that makes you want to take care of her.
But she, unlike Vivian’s timid deanor, had a bit more autonomy, a girl who had her own thoughts.
That made her even harder to pursue!
A strong sense of rivalry flashed in the depths of Lu Yu’s eyes.
That was exactly why it was hard for others to succeed. If he just put in the effort, what if he succeeded?
To be the brother-in-law of Emperor Gu Chen, paired with his own excellence, his future would surely be bright!
While Lu Yu was envisioning his future, Vivian was quietly telling Gu Yan, "I only found out after checking the school forum just now, this Senior Lu is really popular at school. How should I put it, he’s handso, excellent, and especially kind and gentle to girls; it’s too easy for the girls to secretly fall for him."
Gu Yan’s lips twitched, "Then he’s just central air conditioning.
"What?"
"It’s just... never mind, you just shouldn’t fall for this kind of senior."
Vivian said, still a bit scared, "How dare I like him? I don’t even dare to look at him more, in case those aggressive senior sisters see , I’d be in big trouble."
"But you don’t have to be too scared. You don’t have any relationship with Senior Lu anyway. Next ti those senior sisters co troubling you, just stand up to them."
"I, I can’t do that."
"..."
Gu Yan realized that her new acquaintance, who was nice in every other way, was just too timid; she felt a strong urge to protect her.
The two beautiful young girls strolled around the school, and since so many people knew Gu Yan, most of them ca up to say hi with goodwill. Vivian was initially a bit uncomfortable, like a frightened rabbit, but gradually got used to it.
When the two girls sat down for a rest at the café under the library, Gu Yan said, "They all know you’re my roommate now, so they won’t bully you anymore."
"Thank you, Gu Yan."
Vivian’s smile was sweet as she blinked her beautiful big eyes and said, "This coffee is on !"
Gu Yan smiled, "Sure."
No matter what, making a new friend still made Gu Yan happy. The two sat chatting, and before long, Gu Yu rushed over.
Gu Yan hurriedly introduced them, and Gu Yu nodded at Vivian then sat down next to his sister, picking up her coffee and taking a big gulp.
Gu Yan frowned, "Brother, that’s my coffee!"
"Hey, I’m thirsty, and this isn’t as good as the one I grind by hand. Mom got a batch of really good coffee beans, and I ground so for you to take to the dorm."
Imdiately pleased, Gu Yan waved her hand and ordered another cup of the sa cappuccino for the robot.
Vivian knew this was Gu Yan’s brother, so she felt less scared, and just then her brain-computer received a ssage, which made her look down at the information on it.
On the other side, Gu Yu said, "Mom said we should go ho after school. Do you have class tomorrow morning?"
Gu Yan: "I have a class at nine in the morning."
"Then we’ll be back at school before nine tomorrow morning."
Gu Yan thought about it and agreed, looking at the ti she said, "We’re planning on strolling around the campus again this afternoon and then we’ll go pick classes."
Gu Yu: "This afternoon I’m going to observe a senior’s experint class, together with Professor Lan Yu. After it’s over, I’ll contact you, and we’ll go ho together."
"Sounds good."
Before leaving, Gu Yu said goodbye to Vivian politely, only to be pushed by Gu Yan, "Don’t hit on my roommate, she’s shy."
Gu Yu left with an innocent shrug.
He only smiled like that because she was Xiaoyan’s new friend; otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered to take a second look at any girl.
Gu Yan turned to look at Vivian with a bit of concern, considering the fiasco with Lu Yu earlier.
Vivian gave a timid smile and said, "Don’t worry, Xiaoyan, I’m not afraid of people who an well. Your brother is nothing like that Senior Lu."
Gu Yan was curious, "Oh? How are they different?"
Vivian: "Your brother has a kind smile, but Senior Lu’s smile seems... habitual. It’s formulaic—oh dear, I’m not explaining it well."
Gu Yan realized what she ant, "Is it because that Senior Lu often smiles at girls, is often gentle with them, but it’s beco such a habit that it looks particularly fake, right?"
"Exactly that!"
Gu Yan said with a laugh, "Of course, my brother isn’t the type to randomly charm people. Although many are smitten with him, he’s focused on researching cooking and dicine."
Vivian was taken aback, "Those are pretty different, aren’t they?"
Gu Yan thought for a mont then said, "My brother says they’re not so different. After all, both involve playing with knives."
It’s just that one uses a kitchen knife, and the other a scalpel.
Vivian had an epiphany, laughed and then spoke softly, "I heard before that you and your brother would be coming to Empire University. They said that it’s difficult to approach you because of your family’s high status. But after interacting with you today, I see that both of you siblings have such good personalities."
Gu Yan smiled, "My brother and I are okay, but the one with the best personality is my mom. However, we do have people in our family with bad tempers: my dad and my eldest brother."
Vivian was montarily stunned.
Gu Yan’s father and eldest brother—that would be the legendary War God Commander himself and His Majesty of Landis Star, Gu Chen!
On all of Landis Star, probably only two people would dare make such comnts about them!
One is Gu Yan right in front of her.
The other is Gu Yan’s mother, Su Wan.
