"Why are you still standing there? Sit down!"
At this moment, Ma Lina pushed Hao Ren from the back, and he was pushed into the seat next to Xie Yujia.
"I'll sit in the back!" Before Xie Yujia could ask, Ma Lina ran to the back row where Hao Ren usually sat.
Hao Ren looked back at her helplessly and sat down next to Xie Yujia.
The bell rang, and the teacher walked in with materials. Xie Yujia and Hao Ren were sitting in the second row. The teacher was a bit surprised to see Hao Ren, who usually sat in the back row, sitting in the front row, but he didn't ask.
First of all, students could sit wherever they wanted in a university classroom, and there were no restrictions. As long as they could come to class, it was good enough. Second of all, Hao Ren was circled in red on the roll call book, and he was someone that Executive Vice Principal Lu Qing paid special attention to. Therefore, it was worth being cautious.
Ma Lina moved closer to the guys in the back row. She wasn't used to it at first, but she soon got familiar with them and started to talk in a low voice.
Sitting in the front, Hao Ren was not as adaptable as Ma Lina as he was to Xie Yujia and listen to the teacher's lecture.
He had known Xie Yujia since they were little, but it was the first time that he had become her deskmate.
Xie Yujia's body felt warm, and he could feel the softness on his arm even without touching her.
He could see Xie Yujia's beautiful side profile when he turned his head slightly. It was a scene that many guys dreamed of!
Her jet-black hair was draped over her eyebrows like a cut brocade. Her slender fingers held a ballpoint pen and quickly recorded in the notebook.
Her handwriting was elegant and powerful.
Xie Yujia suddenly turned to look at Hao Ren with her big eyes and asked, "Why don't you write?"
"Oh, oh …" Hao Ren picked up the pen, but he didn't know what to write.
Seeing Hao Ren's silly look, Xie Yujia smiled faintly and continued to focus on the teacher in front of her.
Her facial features were so exquisite that they looked like they were purposely embellished. From the center of her eyebrows to the tip of her nose, the corners of her lips, and her jaw, they looked like elegant curves drawn by a master artist with a pencil.
There was no makeup or perfume, only the faint scent of laundry detergent on the clothes.
"Ren is such a lucky guy. He even got a beauty like Xie Yujia." Sitting in the back, Yu Rong, Zhou Liren, and the other guys were envious of Hao Ren.
Sitting beside Xie Yujia, Hao Ren felt like everything around him was getting blurry. The trees outside the window were swaying, and the teacher was writing on the blackboard with chalk. He felt like he was in a middle school classroom.
"Deskmate …" Hao Ren suddenly had an illusion that he and Xie Yujia were deskmates in middle school.
The feeling of being childhood sweethearts, the feeling of knowing oneself and the feeling of knowing one another, the feeling of faint concern that didn't require words, instantly spread out.
"It would be great if I were in the same school and class as her in middle school …" he thought.
"Hey, class is over." Xie Yujia nudged him suddenly.
"Oh …" Hao Ren rubbed the back of his head. He thought that Xie Yujia was listening to the lecture as if she was enjoying the beautiful scenery and didn't hear the bell.
Xie Yujia covered her mouth and laughed. She put the notebook in her bag and said with a straight face, "You spaced out during the whole class. How are you going to take the exam?"
"I thought you were taking notes very seriously," Hao Ren said.
Xie Yujia pouted helplessly and said, "I'll make a copy for you before the exam."
Hao Ren smiled and looked back, but Zhou Liren and the others were already out of sight.
"When are you going to Zhao Yanzi's home?" Hao Ren asked her as he followed her out of the classroom.
"In the evening. Auntie asked me to go over for dinner," Xie Yujia said.
Hao Ren nodded and thought for a moment. "Did she say that she's treating you alone?"
"No." Xie Yujia shook her head.
Hao Ren thought for a moment. He was supposed to tutor Zhao Yanzi today, but Zhao Hongyu invited Xie Yujia to her home for dinner. It didn't seem appropriate for him to go with her …
Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren and hoped that he would go with her. She thought that Zhao Yanzi's mother was a well-educated and polite woman. However, she still felt a little uneasy.
"Give me a call if you have any problems," Hao Ren said to Xie Yujia.
"Ok …" Xie Yujia smiled at Hao Ren and walked out of the classroom.
In the afternoon, Zhou Liren dragged Hao Ren to watch Zhao Jiayi's training. Hao Ren was surprised to see that the gym was full of girls cheering for Zhao Jiayi. Zhao Jiayi was already half a star in the school, and his popularity was about to overtake Huang Xujie.
"Zhao Jiayi's Basketball Team has won three games in a row and is now the team with the best record in the College Basketball League," Zhou Liren said as he scanned the girls.
Looking at the excited girls, Hao Ren suddenly wondered what Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were doing.
"Gongzi!"
Hao Ren thought, and they appeared on both sides of Hao Ren as if they had a tacit understanding.
They were wearing trendy red jackets, and they looked like two Russian Matryoshka dolls. Their clothes were loose, and they didn't have a good figure.
The appearance of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili instantly brightened up the gym. The members of the Basketball Team ran faster than rabbits when they saw the two prettiest girls coming to watch their training.
"What have you been doing lately? I don't see you except on weekends," Hao Ren asked them.
"Hehe, we have been cultivating hard. We will try to break through to mid-tier Qian-level as soon as possible, "Lu Linlin answered with a blushing smile.
"Besides, we don't want to disturb Gongzi," Lu Lili added in a low voice.
"How are your studies?" Hao Ren asked them.
"Things are getting better, and the lessons are not difficult. In a few days, we will go out to shoot a short film," Lu Linlin said as she moved closer to Hao Ren.
Although she was wearing a loose red suit, the softness of her arms and shoulders remained the same.
"Ok, that's good." Hao Ren nodded and continued to watch the situation on the basketball court.
Lu Lili stood beside Hao Ren and looked at him quietly. She moved closer and wanted to touch Hao Ren, but she didn't have the guts.
Lu Linlin put her hands on Hao Ren's shoulders and rested them on her chin as she watched the game in a playful manner.
"Damn! Hao Ren will be punished by the heavens sooner or later! " Zhou Liren, who was standing beside Hao Ren, said anxiously when he saw how close the Lu sisters were to Hao Ren.
After a while, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili said abruptly, "Gongzi, let's go for lunch!"
Hao Ren looked at them strangely and asked, "How do you know that I won't be going to Zhao Yanzi's home today?"
"Of course, we know about Gongzi. If you were going to Little Zhumu's home, you wouldn't have come to watch the practice in the afternoon. You would have to prepare for tutoring, "Lu Linlin said with a sly smile.
Hao Ren smiled helplessly and said, "I still have to go."
He took out his cell phone and called Zhao Hongyu.
"Ren, where are you?" Zhao Hongyu picked up the phone and asked Hao Ren.
"At school." Hao Ren went straight to the point. "Auntie, did you invite Xie Yujia to our home today?"
"Yeah, did she tell you?" Zhao Hongyu didn't deny it. After a pause, she said, "You can come with us."
"Ok … But Auntie, is there something you want to talk to Xie Yujia about?"
"Nothing much. I just want to invite her to dinner and get to know each other." Zhao Hongyu seemed to have heard the Lu sisters' chatter and asked, "Are Linlin and Lili with you?"
"Yeah," Hao Ren answered.
"Then let them come with us," Zhao Hongyu said readily.
Hao Ren covered the phone and asked the Lu sisters, "I'm going to Zi's home for dinner. Do you guys want to come?"
Hao Ren thought that the Lu sisters, who liked to join in on the fun, would say yes. However, to his surprise, the Lu sisters shook their heads and said, "We are busy today and can't go."
Hao Ren had to answer Zhao Hongyu, "They can't come. Then I'll come with Xie Yujia. "
"Ok, Zi's dad is busy today and can't come. It's just the four of us for dinner, "Zhao Hongyu said gently and hung up.
Hao Ren savored Zhao Hongyu's tone and thought that the dinner was not as complicated as he had thought.
"What else are you two doing today?" Hao Ren put away his phone and asked the Lu sisters.
"Hehe, we received an invitation too," Lu Linlin said.
They didn't want to say it, and Hao Ren didn't force them. After all, no one in the world could bully them.
After sending a text message to Xie Yujia, Hao Ren went to the bus stop at the gate of the school.
Soon, Xie Yujia got the text message and came to the bus stop with light clothes.
"I thought you didn't want to go," Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren and said with a sigh.
"I didn't want to go, but Zi's mom also invited me. It's just a casual dinner. Nothing else, "Hao Ren said with a smile.
"Ok!" Xie Yujia nodded. In her mind, Zhao Yanzi was prejudiced against her, but Zhao Hongyu was a gentle person.
The bus came, braked, and opened the door. Hao Ren and Xie Yujia got on the bus.
It was as if everything was normal, just like every other season when spring and summer came and went.
On the roadside, new green buds quietly grew on the tree branches, and some shrubs and flowers in the green belt withered.
"The weather is so good," Xie Yujia sighed in a low voice as she sat by the window.
"Yeah," Hao Ren answered indifferently.
The sky of the city was blue, and the sun was still emitting the last warmth of the day.
In the higher sky, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, who were floating in the energy sphere, followed a purple paper crane and flew slowly toward the direction of the slums.
