Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 6) Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 6) When Yuan Chen returned to the dormitory, his roommates saw him and exclaimed with surprise, âOur lifeâs winner has come back!â
Yuan Chen laughed, âWhat lifeâs winner? What are you talking about now?â
His roommate directly took out his phone and handed it to himâThe campus belle and the department beauty, freshmen became public enemies of many senior students.
Below were a few photos, some of Yuan Chen chatting with Sheng Lu, and some of Qi Shishi looking at Yuan Chen with a shy face, and Yuan Chen handing Qi Shishi a notebook.
Some bored student had written a long article and posted it on the schoolâs forum.
Many people commented below, expressing their envy, jealousy, and hatred, and some even asked to become disciples, wondering how this junior managed to befriend the two beautiful freshmen girls.
After reading it, Yuan Chen laughed and handed the phone back to his roommate, âBaseless talk. Not to mention anything else, I only met these two today.â
His roommateâs face showed a capital âIâm impressedâ: âYou just met, and youâre already this close with them? Especially our campus belle, sheâs widely acknowledged as an ice queen. Come on, how did you âmelt the iceâ?â
Yuan Chen couldnât help but laugh, âWhat âmelting iceâ? Sheâs just a bit cold, not as frightening as you guys make her out to be.â
In fact, he was telling the truth. Sheng Lu was not as aloof as the rumors suggested; more often, she simply didnât know how to socialize with others.
The Sheng family parents were always busy, so Sheng Lu spent a long period of her childhood accompanied by a nanny. This made her mature early and more independent than most kids.
By the time Sheng Luâs parents realized their pretty daughter wasnât as soft and cuddly as other children and had become a little poker-faced, it was too late to change her ways.
But Sheng Lu didnât think there was anything wrong with herself. She liked quietness and wouldnât actively seek to make friends, which she thought was quite alright, wasnât it?
Yuan Chen had noticed while chatting with her that although the girl said little and rarely initiated conversations, she knew a lot, answered every question, and never made people feel awkward.
This wasnât aloofness, it was reticence.
He couldnât help but recall her earnest and tranquil profile as she read her book, a picture of serenity.
His roommate, seeing this obviously love-struck expression, nudged him with a smirk, âCome on, which one do you like?â
Yuan Chen snapped back to reality and glared at him, âWhat do you mean âwhich oneâ? I told you, I just met them today. This is related to the girlâs reputation, donât talk nonsense.â
On the other side, Lu Changting had also seen the message on the forum.
Looking at the photo of Gu Shengyin earnestly talking to Yuan Chen, clearly in conversation, he felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart.
It seemed he needed to move faster. With such an outstanding junior, there would always be people wanting to vie with him.
Gu Shengyin, at her second elective class, still encountered Yuan Chen.
Yuan Chen was clearly surprised but still very pleased, and naturally, the two became desk-mates again.
Gu Shengyin rested her forehead in her hand. Not only this elective class, but for all her electives, Sheng Lu had chosen the same courses as Yuan Chen, even in PE, Sheng Lu had followed Yuan Chenâs lead and chosen volleyball.
By the time they had selected the same class for the third time, Yuan Chen no longer believed it was a coincidence.
He narcissistically thought: Could it be that the campus belle actually had an unrequited love for him, thus secretly choosing the same classes as he did?
But as he looked at Gu Shengyinâs indifferent profile, he dismissed the thought. He couldnât at all tell that she was interested in him.
Yuan Chen didnât know that sometimes, the most unlikely scenarios are actually the closest to the truth.
