Chapter 291 They're all drama queens
On the second day, Song Huan was awakened by a series of chattering sounds.
It wasn't the kind of waking up slowly, like emerging from a dream.
It was like someone had struck a gong next to his ear.
He opened his eyes; the fluorescent lights on the ceiling were off.
The curtains were drawn, but light was already seeping in through the gaps, making it bright and dazzling.
The sound came from the balcony.
Zhang Yang lowered his voice but couldn't suppress it, Liu Yu echoed "yes, yes, yes" beside him, and Shen Yan occasionally offered his unhurried comments.
Song Huan rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. Her hair was sticking up, and her eyes were still a little drowsy.
He put on his slippers, went to the balcony, and opened the glass door.
Zhang Yang and Liu Yu were leaning on the balcony railing, their necks stretched out like two geese with their necks being choked.
Shen Yan stood to the side, hands in his pockets, chin slightly raised, his gaze drifting towards the playground.
"No, what are you all arguing about? It's so early in the morning."
Song Huan's voice was still hoarse from just waking up, "Is someone dancing on the playground or something?"
Their G3 male dormitory building faces the playground.
When there are events with beautiful women dancing, a row of boys will appear on the balcony, like sunflowers, all turning in one direction.
But there was no music or colorful flags today.
Zhang Yang turned around, saw that he was awake, and his eyes lit up. "Lin Yue is running downstairs."
Song Huan was completely speechless.
He looked at Zhang Yang's excited face, then at Liu Yu.
Liu Yu pushed up his glasses, also sporting a "why not take a look?" expression.
"You guys are so incredibly boring, you even watch people running."
Liu Yu added from the side, "But when she was running, a guy confessed his feelings to her."
Shen Yan nodded. "That guy was quite handsome, wearing a white shirt and holding flowers."
Song Huan didn't say anything.
He turned around and walked back to his dormitory.
Zhang Yang's voice came from the balcony, "Where are you going?"
Song Huan pulled her coat off the bed frame and put it on.
His zipper was undone, and he was shirtless.
He walked to the door and opened it.
"It's not very clear from the balcony, I'll go down and take a look."
The door closed.
Zhang Yang, Liu Yu, and Shen Yan stood on the balcony, looking at each other in bewilderment.
Zhang Yang spoke first, "What did he just say?"
Liu Yu pushed up his glasses. "He said it wasn't very clear from the balcony, so he went down to take a look."
……
There weren't many people on the playground.
On a September morning, the air was still a little cool, and there was dew on the grass, so your shoes would get wet if you stepped on it.
Normally, there are only a few people jogging on the track in the morning.
But today, a crowd of people gathered around the playground.
Without a doubt, they're all here for the gossip and the beautiful women.
College students have nothing better to do than gossip, especially since Lin Yue is so beautiful.
Lin Yue was the most outstanding freshman in the Computer Science Department, and on the first day of school, she was discussed for several pages on the online forum.
She was standing by the track, wearing a white sports T-shirt, her hair tied up, and a fine layer of sweat on her forehead.
My face was still flushed from running.
There was a boy standing opposite me, a sophomore in the student council.
She was wearing a white shirt, buttoned all the way up, and her hair was styled with hairspray.
She was good-looking and tall, holding a bouquet of red roses wrapped in pink paper and tied with a ribbon.
A crowd of people gathered around him.
Some people were making a fuss, some were clapping, and some were recording with their phones.
Someone shouted "Say yes! Say yes!" and was pushed by someone next to them.
Lin Yue was stunned for a moment when she saw the boy confessing his love to her, and then she smiled.
That laugh wasn't from shyness, it was from finding it funny.
She tilted her head, her voice crisp and clear, "Senior, what are you doing?"
The boy's face was a little red, but he stood up straight.
"Lin Yue, I like you. I've liked you since the first time I saw you at the beginning of the semester. Will you be my girlfriend?"
He handed over the flowers, holding them up with both hands as if holding up a heart.
Song Huan had just come down from the boys' dormitory when she heard the commotion.
He paused and glanced at the crowd.
Damn it, he confessed his feelings so early in the semester?
Are they all really Teddy bears?
Why is my mind filled with links?
Song Huan cursed inwardly, then continued walking.
He walked at a moderate pace, as if he hadn't seen anything.
My coat was open, and it was being blown up a little by the wind.
Lin Yue's gaze went past the boy's shoulder and glanced at the back of the crowd.
She saw Song Huan and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
[Hehe, finally down!]
She turned back, looked at the boy, and smiled, "Senior, do you know what kind of boy I like?"
The boy paused for a moment, then asked, "What kind?"
Lin Yue counted on her fingers, "He has to be tall, handsome, have good grades, be able to cook, be caring, be willing to give me his umbrella in the rain, and be able to bring me medicine in the middle of the night..."
She talked for a long time, and the faster she spoke, the more she talked.
The boy was stunned.
Lin Yue finished speaking and smiled.
"Most importantly..." she paused, her voice suddenly softening, "he has to be the one I like first, even if he pursues me, but I have to be the one who falls for him first."
The boy's face paled slightly. "Then...then what about me..."
Lin Yue shook her head, smiling sweetly, but it was a polite kind of sweetness.
"Senior, you're a really good person, really. But..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.
The boy stood there, holding flowers in his hands, his face flushing red and then turning pale.
The people around fell silent; no one made a fuss, and no one laughed.
Lin Yue reached out, took a rose from the boy's hand, and smelled it.
"I'll take this one, thank you, senior."
She smiled at him, then turned and left.
Instead of returning to her dormitory, she walked in the direction Song Huan had left.
The sneakers clicked and clacked on the concrete floor at a fast pace.
"Song Huan!"
She called out.
Song Huan didn't stop and kept walking.
She caught up with him and walked beside him.
The clatter of his sneakers mingled with the sound of his footsteps, one fast and one slow.
"You just saw it?"
Song Huan didn't say anything.
"Someone confessed their feelings to me, did you see it?"
He still didn't say anything.
Lin Yue tilted her head to look at him, the rose spinning in her hand.
"Don't you have anything to say?"
Song Huan finally spoke, "What does this have to do with me?"
Lin Yue smiled, her eyes crinkling with laughter, and the rose twirled between her fingers.
Are you jealous?
Song Huan glanced at her. "No."
"Then why were you walking so fast?"
"I walk fast by nature."
"You're lying, you don't usually walk at this speed."
Song Huan didn't respond.
Lin Yue walked beside him, twirling the rose in her hand. "Senior is actually quite nice. He's handsome, tall, in the student council, and his family is well-off."
As she spoke, she looked at Song Huan's profile.
His face was expressionless, but the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Lin Yue saw it.
She tucked the rose behind her ear and smiled.
"But I don't like him."
Song Huan didn't say anything.
"You know who I like."
Song Huan paused for a moment.
Lin Yue walked beside him, watching him.
Two voices suddenly flooded into Song Huan's mind.
One of them was the male senior from earlier, still standing there, his figure indistinct amidst the sounds of the dispersing crowd.
[This isn't what we agreed on! She asked me to act out a scene, saying I had a crush on someone upstairs and wanted to make him jealous. I acted it out, but why didn't she follow the script? She just rejected me outright? Damn it, I've really lost face! Sure enough, the prettier the girl, the more likely she is to lie!]
The other dish was Lin Yue's, right next to him, served softly, with a hint of smug satisfaction at having succeeded in her scheme.
[He came down! He really came down! I knew he was watching from the balcony. It wasn't for nothing that I dragged my senior into this act so early in the morning! But his acting was terrible; he blushed so much he almost gave himself away. Luckily, I managed to cover it up.]
Song Huan stopped in her tracks.
He stood there, turned his head, and looked at Lin Yue.
The rose was tucked behind her ear, making her look like a country girl, with a smile on her face and her eyes crinkling.
[He's staring at me, did he notice?]
[Probably not... I acted quite well.]
Song Huan's lips twitched.
Looking at the smiling girl in front of him, the inexplicable emotion in his heart suddenly dissipated and was replaced by something else.
I wanted to laugh, but I also felt a little helpless.
This girl.
In an effort to lure him down, they actually hired someone to act in the play.
And the acting was so poor.
He opened his mouth, as if to say something.
In the end, he didn't say anything.
Lin Yue tilted her head to look at him, "Why aren't you leaving?"
Song Huan turned her gaze back to the road ahead. "Let's go. Have you had breakfast yet?"
He started walking.
Lin Yue followed him and walked beside him.
"Not yet."
"Let's go eat together."
"Thanks, class monitor! Hehe!"
The sunlight shone on the two people, casting their shadows on the ground, close together.
