Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 10) Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 10) Gu Shengyin and Lu Changting once again sat in the hot-pot restaurant next to their school.
This time, Gu Shengyin, very aware of her limits, chose medium spicy. Her mouth still seemed to hurt from last time’s spicy ordeal, and she dared not risk it again.
She wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but when she chose medium spicy, did the man across seem a bit disappointed?
A thought flashed through her mind, and she came up with a possibility.
Lu Changting saw the girl across from him looking at him nonchalantly, and she asked in all seriousness, “Senior, do you really like spicy food?”
Lu Changting found the question somewhat baffling, but he still shook his head honestly.
The two then happily (?) began eating their hot pot.
“Wow! Boss, you’re actually here on a secret date with a beauty!” an astonished voice came from behind them.
Immediately, a white figure swiftly darted to the seat next to Lu Changting, across from Gu Shengyin.
Gu Shengyin looked up and saw a baby-faced boy, who looked to be only about fifteen or sixteen, with big eyes and a bit of baby fat, making him especially adorable when he smiled–Gu Shengyin really wanted to pinch his cheek.
The boy seemed a bit stunned when he saw Gu Shengyin, and then his face turned red, his eyes sparkling as he looked at her.
“Sister, you’re so pretty!”
Gu Shengyin was nearly choked by his straightforward compliment, something she hadn’t heard in a long time.
“Thank you. You’re very cute too!” she sincerely replied.
“…Hahaha.” Lu Changting suddenly burst into laughter.
Gu Shengyin looked at him, puzzled, and met the accusing eyes of the baby-faced boy straight on.
“The junior girls nowadays are really not cute at all.” He murmured under his breath before breaking into a smile again.
“Let me introduce myself. I’m Liang Zimu, a sophomore in the finance department at First University. Sheng Lu, you are as beautiful as the rumors say,” Liang Zimu stated seriously.
A sophomore? Gu Shengyin was somewhat astonished as she looked at Liang Zimu. With his appearance, if he said he was a high school student, absolutely no one would doubt it.
Liang Zimu, seeing her expression, sighed quietly and ruefully touched his own face, “Alas, naturally beautiful, even time can’t diminish me.”
Gu Shengyin was amused by him and held back a laugh, “Senior, don’t be sad. I’m sure there are many senior girls who would be happy to discuss how to retain youth with you.”
Suddenly, Lu Changting spoke up, “You really understand him. This guy often wanders around the girls’ dorms, leveraging his youthful face to flirt with female students, and even has the nerve to call them ‘sister.’ Now he could form a soccer team with the ‘sisters’ he has at First University.”
Gu Shengyin looked at him admiringly, “Senior is amazing. Junior admires you.”
Liang Zimu: …I always feel this junior is not as innocent as she looks.
Thinking this, he glared at Lu Changting. Who could beat this guy at being deceptive?
Back then, he was fooled by Lu Changting’s clear and bright appearance, happily approaching him to make friends, and as a result, for over a decade, he had always been the errand boy, never turning the tables.
This guy, from a young age, knew how to act, totally cunning and sly.
Yet he only dared to say this in his heart because Liang Zimu knew if Lu Changting heard his remarks, this guy would undoubtedly have the cheek to say: “That’s high praise.”
