Chapter 82: Chapter 81: Yao Mingyue Caught Red-Handed, A Tense Confrontation._2
It was as if they were witnessing two dung beetles in nature locked in a tussle.
Finally, the girls arrived.
Lin Daiyu, Zhao Lianmai, and two other female roommates joined them.
"Hello, you guys..."
Lin Daiyu, whose name suggested she was the most delicate, was surprisingly the liveliest at the moment. She greeted everyone with a smile, but then she also noticed Li Rundong and Zhou Hangyu, locked together in a stubborn embrace.
Surprise flickered across their eyes, slowly giving way to a little excited thrill that felt somewhat twisted.
It was as if they'd stumbled upon some weird 'ship.
Lin Daiyu, pulling Zhao Lianmai with her, noticed the empty spot beside Xu Musen and sat down right next to him.
"We meet again, classmate Xu Musen."
Lin Daiyu flashed him a sweet smile, a dimple appearing on her face.
Xu Musen smiled and nodded at her.
Zhou Hangyu:...
Li Rundong:...
Fuck! Were these two still passionately dueling in the top lane, only to have their crystal stolen just like that?
They both instantly turned to look at Xu Musen, already cursing with jealousy in their hearts.
Dammit, weren't we agreed not to compete with us?
Xu Musen, seeing the look in their eyes, could only helplessly communicate with his own eyes that it really had nothing to do with him.
"You two, are you going to keep hugging each other like this?"
A girl couldn't help but laugh.
"Off, off!"
Only then did the two men react, hastily separating and dusting off their clothes with disdain.
However, seeing Lin Daiyu and Zhao Lianmai sitting beside Xu Musen made them feel almost tearfully helpless.
"Cough, Lin Daiyu, why don't you sit on the opposite side? You can watch the performance from there."
Xu Musen had already tried his best to yield to these two hungry wolves.
But Lin Daiyu was grinning, with no intention of getting up, "No need, it's quite nice here. Music is for listening, and eyes can look at something even more pleasing."
As she said this, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes met Xu Musen's gaze.
Her words left everyone present slightly stunned.
Her two female roommates blushed, but in their hearts, they were thinking that this line was quite the flirt.
Such a direct approach, what man could withstand it?
The other guys were internally exclaiming.
They took a moment to look at Xu Musen's handsome face.
Indeed, it was a world where looks mattered; Xu Musen had good looks, while they were simply a bunch of losers...
Ma Yaxing looked on enviously, the epitome of a studious guy who'd not dated throughout college.
He always felt nervous and blushed when talking to girls.
Yet he'd never imagined that girls could be so forward with a handsome guy.
Xu Musen, however, was somewhat immune to such flirting, as he had already dealt with someone at a higher level, Yao Mingyue.
For instance, if your lips were dry, other girls might tenderly help you apply lip balm, and the bolder ones might even apply it mouth-to-mouth.
But Yao Mingyue would just take him into her room, after all, it was for applying lip balm...
He could only respond to the little girl's thoughts with a slight smile.
At the same time, he gave his two mates a look as if to say he'd done all he could.
Li Rundong and Zhou Hangyu exchanged glances, thinking, "Damn it!"
The dinner party began.
Zhou Hangyu suggested they drink some alcohol. Most of the girls were reluctant at first, but Lin Daiyu was exceptionally bold, grabbing some sake to drink along.
However, it was apparent she was a lightweight; a glass or two of sake turned her cheeks a rosy pink.
"So, Lin Daiyu, you said you like playing games, what kind do you like?" Li Rundong wasn't ready to give up and tried to start a conversation.
"Audition Dance Battle!"
Lin Daiyu answered with a smile.
"What a coincidence, I also..."
Li Rundong finally found some common ground.
But Lin Daiyu looked straight at Xu Musen, and with a grin, asked, "Xu Musen, do you like playing games?"
Li Rundong:...
"I'm not too fond of playing games, but I quite like making money from games."
"You can make money from games? Do people tip you for playing with them?" Lin Daiyu laughed heartily.
Xu Musen's mind lit up, thinking of the accompaniment services from his past life.
"I wish someone would tip me, but no one seems interested."
Xu Musen said half-jokingly.
"Hehe, how about I support you? I'll pay you a salary to play games with me on the weekend, what do you say?"
Lin Daiyu's cheeks flushed from the alcohol as she spoke, everyone glanced at her again.
The way she phrased it sounded like she wanted to keep Xu Musen as a kept man, didn't it?
Xu Musen was a bit speechless himself; why did it seem like all the girls around him were wealthy, and all wanted to support him?
I really don't want to be a kept man, okay!
"Haha, I'm just joking. I don't have that much money, either."
Lin Daiyu laughed heartily, having not expected she'd blurt out such a remark, likely because the alcohol was making her lose some control. Her face colored even redder.
"Is that so, that's too bad. I thought I could stop making an effort. When you, Boss Lin, make a fortune, remember to tip me then."
Xu Musen also laughed it off, raising his glass to steer the odd atmosphere elsewhere.
But when Lin Daiyu heard this, her face turned redder as she looked at him, and the awkwardness was dissolved by his self-deprecating joke.
If not, it seemed like the two good buddies across from her were about to devour her with their eyes.
Lin Daiyu sneaked a glance at him, liking the composure he displayed that could ease any situation.
"It's so boring to just drink. How about we play Truth or Dare?"
