After his blunder in the handsome guy's comment section was exposed.

Sisyphus Bookstore is quite crowded on weekends.

The booths were mostly occupied by students and parents, who were doing homework or reading extracurricular books, making it resemble a large study room.

Zhou Xinran and Xu Yang each occupied a small table for two, looking down at their phones while waiting for Lin Xuechun and the others.

Lin Xuechun saw Zhou Xinran as soon as she entered the shopping area.

She walked over and gently patted her shoulder.

Zhou Xinran looked up, her eyes instantly lighting up: "Baby, you're here!"

"Oh, when did you arrive? Where's your Xu Yang?" Lin Xuechun asked.

"We just arrived. Xu Yang is over there." Zhou Xinran gestured with her chin to the side, and Xu Yang happened to be looking over. He waved to Lin Xuechun and got up to come over.

Zhou Xinran stood up and offered her seat, explaining to Lin Xuechun, "When we came, there weren't any large tables for four left. You and Xi can sit at this table, and Xu Yang and I will sit here."

The table was a small square table, with two single sofas placed facing each other.

Lin Xuechun turned her head to look at Xi Chenzhou beside her.

"I'm fine with anything." Xi Chenzhou took two steps forward, took the backpack off his shoulder, and put it on the sofa.

Seeing this, Lin Xuechun put down her bag opposite him.

Zhou Xinran's gossipy eyes darted between the two of them.

Xu Yang grinned, showing off his bright white teeth, and greeted Xi Chenzhou: "Hello, classmate Xi. I'm Xu Yang, Yangzai from the group chat."

"I'm Ranranzi. I'm Zhou Xinran, and I'm Xuechun's roommate." Zhou Xinran greeted her as well.

We had all introduced ourselves in the group before, so we knew each other's names and majors.

Xi Chenzhou nodded slightly to the two of them, his expression indifferent yet polite.

Then he looked at Lin Xuechun, his eyes asking, "What would you like to drink? I'll go order."

"No need, I'll order. You brought me a sandwich this morning." Lin Xuechun took out her phone from her bag, held it in her hand, and looked like she was ready to have a few rounds of arguing with him.

Xi Chenzhou raised an eyebrow slightly, didn't try to take it from her, pulled out a chair and sat down: "Iced Americano. Thank you."

Lin Xuechun made a note of it and prepared to go to the cashier. Seeing this, Zhou Xinran immediately took her arm and said, "Baby, I'll go with you."

After walking a few steps and making sure they couldn't hear anything behind them, Zhou Xinran leaned close to Lin Xuechun's ear, looking at her with a gossipy gaze: "Honey, you and Xi Chenzhou came from school together?"

"Yes." Lin Xuechun didn't hide it from her.

Zhou Xinran's eyes widened: "What the heck? What's going on?"

Lin Xuechun explained to her in a low voice, "On Friday, when we were having dinner, he texted me asking how I was getting there. I said I was taking the subway, and then he suggested we go together."

"Take the subway?"

"Um."

"My God, he looks like one of those pampered young masters, he doesn't seem like the type to take the subway. He must be here to keep you company. You two..."

Zhou Xinran winked at Lin Xuechun in an ambiguous way.

Lin Xuechun blushed a little under her gaze: "It's alright, even the CEO of BYD takes the subway to the auto show."

"That's different, that's traffic jam, people are in a hurry."

"We're also in a hurry."

"What about bringing breakfast? I heard him bring you breakfast! How do you explain that?"

"I just grabbed a Subway sandwich on the side, maybe to make up for the freebie."

"Hehe." Zhou Xinran had a look on her face that said, "Do you believe me or not?"

Lin Xuechun pursed her lips, feeling that it was indeed a bit unreasonable.

For some reason, I thought of that scene on the subway again, and my cheeks flushed once more.

"Baby, something's wrong! Why are you blushing?" Zhou Xinran noticed her unusual expression immediately, her cunning eyes roaming over her face.

"N-nothing." Lin Xuechun shook her head.

"Hmph, tell me the truth!" Zhou Xinran was in the throes of new love and had a built-in radar for these kinds of things. Just by looking at Lin Xuechun's shy and timid expression, she knew that something was definitely going on.

This was the first time since I'd known Lin Xuechun that she'd shown this expression when mentioning a particular boy.

"Let's order first." There were just two people at the cashier, so Lin Xuechun changed the subject, pulled up her payment code on her phone, and said to the waiter, "One iced Americano and one latte, please."

"The total is seventy-two yuan."

drop.

Lin Xuechun aligned the payment code with the scanning machine.

Zhou Xinran suppressed her curiosity and quickly placed her order.

After paying their respective bills, the two received their receipts and queue numbers, and waited in the waiting area to pick up their food.

"Oh baby, tell me quickly! Are you trying to make me anxious all morning?"

Lin Xuechun lowered her eyes and blinked, biting her lip, and said softly as if she was having some difficulty speaking, "Well... he carried my bag for me on the way."

What?

Handling bags?!

"Oh my god! This is so ambiguous!!!"

Zhou Xinran made a squealing face like a groundhog, which startled Lin Xuechun, who quickly covered her mouth. At the same time, she glanced guiltily at Xi Chenzhou, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he hadn't noticed them.

"Keep your voice down."

I was originally going to tell you about being forced to stand next to Xi Chenzhou on the subway, but judging from Zhou Xinran's current reaction, if she found out, the bookstore's roof would probably be blown off.

Never mind, I'd better not say anything more.

Lin Xuechun kept her mouth shut.

Zhou Xinran was still reeling from the bag-carrying incident: "Let me tell you, baby, every time I go out with Xu Yang, I don't let him carry my bag, and he never does! So, Xi Chenzhou definitely has feelings for you!"

"But don't you think he's too good at it? He must have dated a lot of girls, so he's used to carrying their bags when they go out." Lin Xuechun calmed down and thought about it, becoming much more clear-headed.

Don't be fooled by her flirtatious online chatter with various handsome men, which makes her seem very open. It's because those online guys have no connection to her real life. Even if they've dated ten or eight of them, it has nothing to do with her.

She won't take things to heart.

Just admiring the other person's beauty and figure.

In reality, however, she has a severe obsession with virginity and a strong sense of fastidiousness.

She doesn't want her boyfriend to be someone else's ex, or someone who has been in a relationship before.

Anyway, she's quite petty and possessive in that area.

Zhou Xinran calmed down as well: "Now that you mention it, I think you have a point. Xi's face doesn't look like he's never been in a relationship before. But you two really are a good match. At worst, you can just sleep around, the kind that doesn't involve serious feelings. Look at his nose, how straight it is, how sexy his Adam's apple is, you can tell how amazing his physique is even through his hoodie. I really want to tear his clothes off to see what happens..."

"Pfft—" Lin Xuechun burst out laughing at her description.

They truly are best friends.

How could I possibly think the same way she does?

Although she had never seen what Xi Chenzhou looked like with his clothes off, she had hugged him.

The image of the subway flashed through her mind: she was hugging his waist, pressed tightly against his chest, and she could feel the firm, strong outline of his waist under his hoodie, which must be incredibly powerful, and his abs must be very defined...

Speaking of abs...

Lin Xuechun couldn't help but think of that Douyin blogger ksmk123 again.

I wonder who has a better figure between the two?

However, judging solely by looks, if ksmk were truly handsome, he would definitely show his face. If he didn't, then he's not quite there yet. So, Xi Chenzhou is probably better looking, right?

Anyway, both of them hit the mark with her.

Speaking of which, I've been so busy studying these past few days that I haven't checked ksmk123's homepage. I wonder if it's been updated?
