The dinner lasted for over an hour.
After it ended, Xu Lin drove Rong Xiyan back to the school. After dropping her off at the dorm, he went to return the car to Gu Yan’s roommate.
Only then did Xu Lin return to his own dorm.
Rong Xiyan urged Xu Lin to quickly download the mobile ga "Eternal Calamity."
Xu Lin: "Why are you in such a hurry? I have other things to do!"
"I’m a bit bored and don’t know what to do."
Rong Xiyan: "Forget it, I’ll take a shower first."
Xu Lin also went to shower as soon as he returned to his dorm. He had just eaten a barbecue, and the sll lingered on him, which he found unbearable, so he spent twenty minutes to relieve himself and shower in one go.
As he ca out, Xie Zhengrong and the others had just returned.
Seeing Xu Lin, Xie Zhengrong couldn’t help but say, "Xu Lin, you’re amazing!"
"Amazing in what way?"
"Just t and already you’re familiar with Rong Xiyan, picking her up and dropping her off!"
"It’s just eting a girl, nothing special."
Xu Lin didn’t think much of it.
Xu Lin continued, "Didn’t you just have a good chat with Liu Wange? How did it feel?"
Xie Zhengrong scratched his head and smiled, "I’m not too sure."
"What about Hu Donghai?"
Xie Zhengrong asked him.
Hu Donghai responded, "I’m not in a hurry for a girlfriend, it depends on fate! And it’s just the start of the sester."
Xie Zhengrong added, "Xu Lin and Liu Longsheng are the most impressive, Xu Lin with Rong Xiyan, and Liu Longsheng with Li Sinan. Could they both get together within days?"
Liu Longsheng, who was sitting on a chair still trying to add Rong Xiyan as a friend, looked up and said, "Li Sinan is alright."
At this mont, Liu Longsheng’s mind was no longer on Li Sinan.
Liu Longsheng wasn’t giving up easily.
He just wanted to add Rong Xiyan as a friend, but there was no response at all from Xiyan’s "Water-like Kindness" account.
This disappointed him a bit.
Additionally, Liu Longsheng was still shocked from seeing Xu Lin’s ultimate weapon in the bathroom. What he had always been proud of was unexpectedly shattered by Xu Lin, making him realize there’s always soone better!
Damn!
It was too uncomfortable!
Liu Longsheng genuinely felt a bit inferior.
At this mont, Xu Lin stopped talking to his dorm mates and answered a voice call from Rong Xiyan.
"What’s up?"
"Did you download the ga?"
"Just a mont."
"Hurry up!"
Rong Xiyan urged.
Xu Lin logged onto the official website and clicked to download the ga.
Xu Lin: "The ga files and resources total over ten gigabytes of data!"
Rong Xiyan: "I’ll top up your data, okay?"
Xu Lin: "Hurry and top it up for !"
Rong Xiyan: "I’ll transfer three hundred yuan to you via WeChat!"
Xu Lin really received three hundred yuan.
Xu Lin: "Is this a joke?"
Rong Xiyan: "Ha! Quickly install and register, then add as a ga friend!"
"Wait, I’ll put on headphones."
Xu Lin put on his headphones, and by then the ga had finished installing, but downloading the resources and loading took so ti.
Finally, it was all downloaded, but he had to register and go through the newbie tutorial.
What a hassle!
Xu Lin had only played the PC version before, never the mobile version of "Eternal Calamity."
Finally, after completing the newbie tutorial, he added Rong Xiyan as a friend and spent a few bucks to get a Mai Shiranui skin.
Xu Lin just liked the flashy and bold ones.
Speaking of which, it’s "Eternal Calamity," if not fun, what else would it be?
On the other side, Liu Longsheng and the others looked towards Xu Lin, especially Liu Longsheng, because he heard Rong Xiyan’s voice.
Did Xu Lin add Rong Xiyan?
Then why didn’t I?
Afterwards, Liu Longsheng pretended to pass by, and when he got closer to Xu Lin, he took a glance.
WeChat voice call?
Damn!
They even added each other on WeChat, while I’m struggling to add "Water-like Kindness" from the QQ group!
What on earth am I doing?
Liu Longsheng got really frustrated.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Liu Longsheng’s head, maybe because Rong Xiyan doesn’t use QQ and has blocked background notifications, so she didn’t see it?
Thinking this way, Liu Longsheng suddenly felt enlightened.
That must be it!
"I’ll just ask Xu Lin to share her WeChat later!"
He hoped to add Rong Xiyan and talk about the shoe project he ntioned while eating BBQ tonight. Liu Longsheng had to make it clear; he wanted to prove to Rong Xiyan that his startup would succeed, so that she’d see him in a better light, and hopefully, they could develop into a couple.
Liu Longsheng started to wait, every second feeling like a year.
On Xu Lin’s side, while voice chatting with Rong Xiyan but wearing Bluetooth headphones, the two played "Eternal Calamity" together.
After playing for about an hour, they played five matches, and Xu Lin carried each one, making Rong Xiyan very happy.
"I can’t believe I actually won five rounds!"
Rong Xiyan is a gaming newbie, bad at the ga but loves to play.
"Didn’t I carry you?"
"Skin!"
"I’m logging off."
"No, keep playing!"
"Are you just bored out of your mind? I’m done, I have things to do."
Xu Lin turned off the voice chat, exited the ga; playing gas with girls didn’t pique his interest much, unless they were snuggled in his arms, unlike now where they were communicating via voice call.
Simply chatting with girls wasn’t really interesting!
"Xu Lin, what are you going to do?"
Rong Xiyi sent a ssage.
Xu Lin: "Busy."
"Busy with what? You’re not even playing gas."
Rong Xiyi was reluctant, having been crushed almost every ga before; now that she was finally gaining ground with Xu Lin, he didn’t want to play anymore.
Xu Lin didn’t reply to her directly.
Furthermore, there wasn’t much fun in this ga anyway, and mobile gas didn’t provide the satisfying control to indulge his gaming passions.
Once his computer arrives the day after tomorrow, he plans to play PC gas.
At this mont, seeing Xu Lin had finished gaming, Liu Longsheng hurried over and said, "Xu Lin, do you have Rong Xiyi’s V?"
"Yes."
"Can you pass her V over?"
"I’ll forward yours to her."
"Thanks, Xu Lin!"
Liu Longsheng looked at Xu Lin and suddenly found him much more agreeable.
Then, Xu Lin forwarded Liu Longsheng’s V to Rong Xiyi.
Rong Xiyi: "What for?"
Xu Lin: "Liu Longsheng’s account."
Rong Xiyi: "Are you nuts? Dumping trash here! Don’t forward other people’s accounts to , especially guys, I don’t want to add any!"
Predictably, Rong Xiyi wouldn’t add Liu Longsheng.
Currently, although they just started university, both boys and girls had already begun forming their own groups, and who hung out with whom started from the first day.
For example, tonight’s barbecue, Xu Lin could see that Rong Xiyi’s dorm split into three: Rong Xiyi played alone, Li Sinan played alone, Zhao Fangfei and Liu Wange played together, similar setups ford quickly in girls’ dorms.
As they say, birds of a feather flock together, this attraction happens when people feel comfortable interacting, finding who they sh well with.
Xu Lin: "Why talk about my buddy like that?"
Rong Xiyi: "Nutjob!"
Xu Lin: "Babe, don’t be mad."
Rong Xiyi: "Who’s your babe? We’ve hardly just t!"
Xu Lin: "Just calling you babe and you’re losing it?"
Rong Xiyi: "Xu Lin, I changed your note."
She also sent over a screenshot.
Note: Xu Lin is a big jerk!
She even added an exclamation mark.
Xu Lin: "I also changed your note."
"What did you change it to?"
"Guess?"
"Tell !"
"Guess!"
"Tell quickly!"
"Xu Lin?"
"What did you change it to? Speak up! Why are you silent? Xu Lin, you jerk!"
Rong Xiyi’s curiosity was piqued; she couldn’t wait to find out what note Xu Lin had changed for her.
A minute later, Xu Lin replied: "Didn’t change it, just ssing with you, I’m not that bored."
Rong Xiyi: "So you an I’m bored?"
Xu Lin: "I’m exhausted, see you tomorrow."
Xu Lin didn’t bother with her further but instead opened Yu Xinyan’s account.
Yu Xinyan had already arrived at the camp, tomorrow officially begins her military training, lasting twenty days, almost three weeks, and it’s said the camp training is stricter than the school’s.
Yu Xinyan said: "Xu Lin, lots of people in the camp dorms, we have twenty girls living together here!"
Xu Lin: "Are you used to it?"
"Not really."
"And you’re not here."
Yu Xinyan didn’t send the second sentence; she typed it and then deleted it.
Yu Xinyan did miss Xu Lin, as university life made her feel intensely lonely.
Jiangdu is a top-tier city, very large, with over twenty million permanent residents.
The two were at different universities, separated by more than thirty kiloters, taking over an hour by subway, making et-ups difficult.
Yu Xinyan thought back to junior and high school tis when she could see Xu Lin daily.
After chatting for a few minutes, they were forced to stop.
Because in the camp, they must sleep at designated tis, speaking isn’t allowed, playing on phones isn’t allowed, night patrols occur; overall, it’s quite strict.
Then there was Lei Haolong.
Lei Haolong: "Xu Lin, my military training starts the day after tomorrow; it’s going to be tough, man, a whole two weeks, looked at the weather forecast, and it’s all sunny, not a single cloudy day, I’m going to get so tanned!"
Xu Lin: "Haven’t you always been close to a wheat skin tone? What’s there to fear?"
Lei Haolong: "Xu Lin, I actually want to be fair-skinned now; it seems guys with fair skin are really popular."
Xu Lin: "It’s handso guys with fair skin who are more popular."
Lei Haolong: "Xu Lin, you scumbag! Always putting down!"
Lei Haolong felt speechless; even though his mom’s a beauty, his dad isn’t good-looking, and his genes are strong, which makes him look exactly like his dad, even his beautiful mom couldn’t balance out the strong genes of the Lei family.
They talked for ten minutes before ending the chat.
