Chapter 199: One Pot Matches One Lid

Yan Zheke, dragging her suitcase, turned the doorknob of her dormitory and found Li Liantong was already back, quickly tapping the keyboard.

"Haven't Ru and Pak Choi come back yet?" She asked casually.

Li Liantong stopped typing and turned to Yan Zheke. "I heard they got stuck on the old campus."

Many schoolmates came back to school on this day after the holiday, so there were not enough school buses!

"Right." Yan Zheke chuckled. "Ru might as well skip class for one more day."

May Day Holiday this year lasted from Wednesday to Friday. Skipping all the classes on Monday and Tuesday, plus last weekend, Zong Yanru gave herself a super long seven-day holiday.

Resting her chin on one hand, Li Liantong watched Yan Zheke open her suitcase and busily unpack the luggage. "You and Cheng did not take the school bus?" She mused.

When Li Liantong got to know Lou Cheng better, she started to call his nickname as well.

"Yep. He used the online taxi-hailing service." Yan Zheke replied with a hint of a smile in the corner of her mouth.

If we took the school bus, it might take us at least one or two hours to come back.

But calling cab online was expensive since the ticket for school bus only cost four yuan. We spent 60 or 70 yuan on the cab. What a waste of money!

And this trip had already cost Cheng a fortune. The room rate alone was more than 3,000 yuan at least. Plus other miscellaneous expenses, I'm afraid Cheng had to spend nearly 5000 yuan on these...

I wonder how much private money he'll leave...

She came from a well-off family and money was never a problem for her, so she never thought about saving money. But after she was with Lou Cheng, she unconsciously developed a habit of making the most cost-effective plan. Guess love did the trick.

Otherwise, she would never remind her boyfriend to cancel that extra room reservation. It was too embarrassing and humiliating.

Seeing Yan Zheke lost in her thought, Li Liantong could not help teasing her.

"Ke, you look great~"

Coming out of her reverie, Yan Zheke rolled her eyes at her roommate. "Dirty Tong, there's nothing wrong with the words you just spoke, but you speaking it out makes me feel weird about it."

Li Liantong was gifted to make everything she spoke sound dirty.

Li Liantong chuckled. "You're right about me, but I do have my manners. I'll not invade privacy on purpose and will never ask a thing about how much intimacy you're sharing with Cheng. You look great. That's how I feel when I see you."

"Bah! What were you thinking? I just had my period." Yan Zheke suddenly came to the realization and stared at Dirty Tong, shy and angry.

Li Liantong stretched her hands out, smiling.

"Naive!"

"Nothing works when it comes to lust, not even your period. Trust me, men could do anything just to get your pants off. Like, like, like..."

Even if Li Liantong failed to give an example, Yan Zheke was stunned by her words. She and Cheng were too pure and innocent to think of something nasty like that.

She had read so many romance novels in which love described was innocent and beautiful!

Astonished for a moment, she rubbed her forehead and said, "Dirty Tong, your mind was much dirtier than I have imagined."

Who would believe that Li Liantong was a girl who had never been in a relationship before?

Li Liantong gladly accepted this remark as if it was a compliment for her, but her look became more serious when she started to talk again. "Ke, seriously, I have to remind you something."

"What?" Yan Zheke asked blankly.

"If you can't turn him on when you guys were together, then you must be careful." Li Liantong answered solemnly.

Yan Zheke blushed immediately upon hearing this. "What're you watching recently? Sounds so weird!" She pouted.

"It's just I saw posts that some scumbags hid their sexual orientation so as to commit marital frauds." Li Liantong signed. "Look at your blushing face, I guess you don't have to worry about that," said she with a grimace.

"Mm." Yan Zheke responded with a voice as soft as a mosquito's.

Indeed, I don't have to worry about the problem like that. Cheng's sexual desire was so strong that we almost got into a fight for this.

But she was too shy to continue on this topic, so she unpacked her suitcase, took out the clothes for laundry and started to pick her outfit for tonight's dinner.

"Date night again? Come on, you guys just came back. Don't you think you've spent too much time together?" Li Liantong knew everything about being dirty but knew nothing about keeping a relationship.

Yan Zheke smiled when picking out her outfit. "His roommate, the closest one, invites us for dinner."

"There are other girls?" Li Liantong walked next to Yan Zheke and seemed to give her some advice about how to dress.

"Yep." Yan Zheke let out a laugh.

"No wonder…" With a smile, Li Liantong looked her roommate up and down and suddenly gave out a sign. "Ke, your beautiful collarbone makes me envy so much. I love such delicate collarbone."

"Your hobby sounds a bit weird..." Dirty Tong had mentioned her obsession with collarbone several times and Yan Zheke felt strange every time she talked about this.

Li Liantong laughed. "Strange? I don't think so. What's wrong with my obsession? I love beautiful collarbones, and many people in this world are obsessed with hand, foot, leg, long hair, short hair, flat chest and so on. Everyone has their own hobby. They're all normal people."

"What's my obsession?" This problem suddenly occurred to Yan Zheke when she heard Dirty Tong's explanation.

After a careful consideration, she found she had no hobby. If she had to pick one, then she must be obsessed with fools.

"Silly Cheng..." She unconsciously revealed a smile. Then she thought of something else.

What's Cheng's obsession?

Obsessed with little fairies?

...

After washing and drying his clothes, Lou Cheng tidied himself up and confirmed the time and place with Little Ming again.

According to schedule, he set out a little earlier and waited outside the dormitory 3. Before long, his girlfriend went out with a bag in her hand.

Yan Zheke wore a white T-shirt and a pair of black knee-high culottes, baring her straight and fair-skinned legs. Her light-colored sneakers, simple yet not dull, made her look young and beautiful. Plus her makeup, she was stunningly radiant and gorgeous.

"Wow, why so formal? I mean your dress tonight." Lou Cheng asked both in astonishment and doubt.

As he recalled, Ke had never tried so hard to look good except their first date.

With a big smile on her face, Yan Zheke lowered her head and said, "You know, sometimes girls take extra efforts dressing themselves when their dates are girls. Dating boyfriend is much easier."

"Ah?" Lou Cheng wore a dumb look on his face.

"Never mind, you boys would not understand this." Yan Zheke held his arm with one hand, smiling. "Let's go."

Instead of using online car-hailing service, they took the school bus to old campus as usual. There was no need to wait in line at this time. Once they arrived at Songcheng, they went straight to Tao Ran Ju, a restaurant nearby their university.

Tao Ran Ju was elegantly decorated. Tables were set between shelves on which all kinds of books and porcelains were placed. The layout was carefully designed so that every table could have their privacy, and the lighting was dim here, what a perfect place for dating!

"The Casanova picked the damnedest place to eat!" This compliment came from the bottom of his heart. Then Lou Cheng, hand in hand with Yan Zheke, told the waitress their table number and let her guide them to Cai Zongming and his girlfriend.

Upon seeing them, Cai Zongming stood up in big smiles and began with the introduction.

"Cheng, this is my girl, Fang Yuan."

"Yuan, this is Cheng, and that's his girlfriend, Yan Zheke."

Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke greeted to the girl standing next to Cai Zongming. "Nice to meet you."

Fang Yuan who was of medium height had an ordinary look, and her eyes were slightly deformed due to high myopia.

She wore a T-shirt, an ankle-high dress, and a minimal makeup. Now she looked at Lou Cheng, smiling.

"Nice to meet you, Cheng. Ming mentioned you so many times. I know you're a gifted martial fighter who has infinite strength. But I can tell, what Ming admires you the most is your perseverance and determination. With you as a model, he gets rid of so many bad habits."

Lou Cheng was smiling at the beginning of the conversation, but soon he noticed that Fang Yuan was not kind of girl he had imagined. She was a lot more serious. The way she talked made him stressful, as if he was talking with the dean of students.

He took a breath and joked. "I can't believe what you have said. I thought he would only insult me. How's it possible for Talker to praise me? To admire me? It doesn't make sense!"

Cai Zongming interjected with a smile. "Yuan, I told you. Cheng won't buy it. That's how men get along with one another. You confessing my admiration for him will freak him out."

Their conversation amused the girls, enlivening the sterile atmosphere among them.

They continued their small talks after each settling into their seats. Then Cai Zongming gave a wink at Lou Cheng.

Upon getting his hint, Lou Cheng looked around right away and asked, "Where is the restroom?"

"I'll show you. Ladies can check the menu first." Cai Zongming cheerfully stood up and headed to the corner with Lou Cheng.

When they left, two girls who did not know each other before fell into silence immediately. However, the well-educated Yan Zheke started the conversation again. "I heard you're studying in the department of mathematics in the Capital College, right?"

"Yep." Fang Yuan wore an uncomfortable look.

"Did Professor Smith give a lecture last month at your college?" Yan Zheke asked with great interest.

Professor Smith was a top scholar whose research field shifted from mathematics to finance.

"You know that lecture?" Fang Yuan's eyes lit up instantly.

"Yes. Could you tell me a little bit more about the lecture since I'm interested in this field?" Yan Zheke asked in great curiosity.

By now, Fang Yuan had taken her as a bosom friend and soon became talkative.

Inside the restroom, Lou Cheng looked at Cai Zongming in amusement. "Isn't it inappropriate to leave them alone there?"

It's not a nice thing!

"I know, but I'm also afraid that you're going to put your foot in your mouth before her. Yuan is a priggish girl. She can't take a joke that we used to play on each other," said Cai Zongming while washing his hands.

"Priggish?" Lou Cheng asked in surprise.

"What? I just love her being priggish," said Cai Zongming crossly.

"I did not know your type…" Lou Cheng continued. "When I talk with her, you have no idea what I'm thinking of. Never mind, I'll keep it to myself…"

I have no problem insulting my friends, but insulting their girlfriend is different. It's not cool.

Cai Zongming signed. "Does she remind you of our dean of students?"

"Holy crap, how did you know that?" Lou Cheng looked at the Casanova astonishingly.

"We used to be deskmates for years. That's how we develop our relationship. At first, I thought she was not my type. How could I fall in love with a girl who is bossy and priggish? But later my obsession with her got out of control." Cai Zongming continued with an ironic smile as he recalled the old days. "Damn it. I hate my parents' supervision. I hate priggish people. However, everything changed when I met her, like Monkey Sun met the Buddha. I just like her being bossy to me. I like her serious look..."

Lou Cheng was shocked for quite a while.

"Ming, you're so not you..."

I can't imagine that he is into this type.

Does he suffer from Stockholm Syndrome?

One pot matches one lid. They're exactly like this.

As they spoke, they headed back to their table only to find their dates were having a nice chat.

Cai Zongming paused for a moment and said, "Now I regret asking you to bring your girlfriend..."

Girls gossiped when they became familiar!

Lou Cheng drew in his breath as well.

"I regret too..."

...

Shu Rui, who was dating her boyfriend, suddenly got a call from the director.

"Can you work overtime tonight to finish that exclusive interview about Lou Cheng? We need to play it for the draw ceremony the day after tomorrow." The director simply instructed.

At this moment, Su Rui felt like smashing her cell to the ground...
