Chapter 134 Li Hu in a Hurry

Girls' dormitory.

Chen Lu sat on the edge of the bed, holding a book in her hand, but didn't turn a single page for a long time.

Zhou Lin lay on the bed, her legs dangling, tapping away on her phone. Zhao Yu sat at her desk, combing her hair in front of the mirror, but after a long time, she still hadn't changed her hairstyle.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Lin suddenly put down her phone and turned over.

"Chen Lu, that junior, the one who saved your life, hasn't come to see you for over a month?"

Chen Lu turned a page of the book without looking up.

"They're busy."

Zhou Lin propped her head up, her eyes shining.

"What are you so busy with? How busy can a college student be?"

Chen Lu didn't say anything.

Zhao Yu glanced at her in the mirror and smiled slightly.

Why do you care what other people are busy with?

"6

Zhou Lin persisted and sat up in bed.

"I'm just worried about Chen Lu. It's been over a month, and I haven't seen a single person. The last time we had dinner was before National Day, wasn't it?"

Chen Lu turned a page of her book.

"Um."

Zhou Lin's eyes widened.

"You just...hmm?" Aren't you in a hurry?

Chen Lu finally raised her head and glanced at her.

"What's the rush?"

Zhou Lin opened her mouth, but no words came out.

Zhao Yu laughed beside her.

"Chen Lu isn't in a hurry, so why are you?"

Zhou Lin lay back down, hugged her pillow, and turned over.

"I'm just worried about her. That junior is handsome, reliable, and even helped her before. Where can you find a guy like that? She hasn't contacted him for over a month. If it were me, I would have been worried a long time ago."

Chen Lu didn't say anything, but she turned the pages of the book a little slower.

Zhou Lin didn't see it and continued talking.

"Do you think he has a girlfriend?"

Zhao Yu glanced at her.

Don't make wild guesses.

Zhou Lin was unconvinced.

"Then why has there been no news for over a month?"

Zhao Yu thought for a moment.

When someone says they're busy, they probably really are.

Zhou Lin snorted.

"What's he busy with? Freshmen are busy with classes and playing games, what could he possibly be busy with?"

Chen Lu closed the book and placed it on her bedside table.

Aren't you hungry?

Zhou Lin was stunned for a moment.

"Change the subject?"

Chen Lu ignored her and stood up to get the snacks on the table.

Zhou Lin lay on the bed, watching her open the bag of potato chips.

"Chen Lu, just tell me the truth, do you have feelings for that junior?"

Chen Lu took a bite of a potato chip.

Zhou Lin pressed for more information.

"It's either true or it isn't. What's our relationship that you're hiding it from me?"

Chen Lu chewed twice and swallowed.

"So what if I have something to say, and so what if I don't?"

Zhou Lin's eyes lit up.

"If you do, take the initiative. Invite him out for a meal and a chat. If you keep waiting like this, it'll be too late."

Zhao Yu chimed in from the side.

"You seem quite experienced."

Zhou Lin spoke with righteous indignation.

"I have no experience, but I watch a lot of TV dramas."

Zhou Lin got even more excited and sat up in bed.

"Look at what happened at dinner last time, that junior was so reliable. He stood in front of them and even led them in a fight..."

""

"His roommate was the first one to go, although he also went," Zhao Yu corrected her.

Zhou Lin waved her hand.

"It's all the same. They helped us, so isn't it only right that you treat them to a meal? They treated you last time, so it's only natural that you treat them back this time."

Chen Lu didn't say anything, and took another bite of the potato chip.

Zhou Lin leaned closer.

"Just tell me, do you even slightly want to see him?"

Chen Lu paused for a moment while chewing the potato chips.

Do you want to? It would be a lie to say no. But so what? They're busy; you can't just drag them out.

"No," she said.

Zhou Lin stared at her for two seconds.

You're lying.

Chen Lu didn't look at her.

Why would I lie to you?

Zhou Lin lay down on the bed.

"Okay, okay, you don't have one. Then give me your phone, and I'll send him a message saying you miss him."

Chen Lu glared at her.

"You dare?"

Zhou Lin chuckled.

"Then send it yourself."

Zhao Yu laughed beside her.

"Don't pressure her. If she wanted to post it, she would have done it already."

Chen Lu didn't reply and continued eating potato chips with her head down.

My phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the screen.

Zhou Lin, with her sharp eyes, immediately sat up.

Who is it?

Chen Lu ignored her and answered the phone.

"Feed?"

Lin Dong's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Chen Lu?"

Chen Lu's heart skipped a beat.

"Um.

""

Are you busy?

Chen Lu glanced at Zhou Lin and Zhao Yu.

"not busy."

Zhou Lin leaned closer, her ear almost touching the phone.

Chen Lu turned to the side, avoiding her.

Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together.

Chen Lu was stunned for a moment.

"Have a meal?"

"Yeah. My roommates are going too, we'll all go together."

Zhou Lin, who was standing nearby, heard this and her eyes lit up. She winked at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu heard it too, put down the comb, and turned around.

Chen Lu glanced at them.

"How many people?"

"There are four of us in our dorm. You can decide which one you want over there."

Zhou Lin leaned close to Chen Lu's ear and whispered, "Go away!"

Chen Lu ignored her.

"When?"

"Six o'clock, at the grilled fish restaurant next to the school. The same one as last time."

Chen Lu thought about it.

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Lin snatched the phone from her.

"I knew it! He would definitely contact you!"

Chen Lu took the phone back.

"They invited everyone to eat together, not just me."

Zhou Lin waved her hand.

"It's all the same. You're the first person he thinks of anyway."

Chen Lu didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth curved slightly.

Zhou Lin has already started rummaging through the wardrobe.

"What should I wear? That dress from last time? Or that shirt?"

Zhao Yu laughed beside her.

"Why are you getting so worked up? It's not like I asked you to go."

Zhou Lin spoke with righteous indignation.

"I'll advise Chen Lu."

She took out a white shirt and held it up to her eyes.

"How about this one?"

Chen Lu glanced at it.

"casual."

Zhou Lin was not satisfied.

"Whatever, whatever. They haven't seen you for over a month, you need to dress nicely."

She then pulled out a light blue dress.

"What about this one?"

Chen Lu glanced at it but didn't say anything.

Zhou Lin stuffed the skirt into her hand.

"This is it. It will absolutely smitten him."

Chen Lu blushed slightly.

No way.

Zhou Lin chuckled.

"I saw it all clearly from the side. He looked at you, and you looked at him, both of you gazing at each other with affection..."

'

"Alright, alright," Chen Lu interrupted her, putting the skirt on the bed.

Zhao Yu stood up and went to rummage through her own wardrobe.

What should I wear?

Zhou Lin glanced at her.

"Do whatever you want, nobody's watching anyway."

Zhao Yu glared at her.

Zhou Lin laughed and dodged away.

"Just kidding. You should wear the light-colored one, it looks good on you."

Zhao Yu took out the light-colored clothes, held them up, and nodded.

The three of them started changing clothes, combing their hair, and looking for their shoes.

Zhou Lin said while tying her hair.

"Do you think all the guys from their dorm will come?"

Chen Lu thought about it.

"I think so."

Zhou Lin's eyes lit up.

"That short-haired guy, the one who sat next to me last time, what was his name again?"

"Li Hu," Chen Lu said.

"Yes, yes, Li Hu. He'll be coming too, right?"

Chen Lu glanced at her.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Lin chuckled.

"Nothing much, just asking casually."

Zhao Yu laughed beside her.

"Didn't you just say you were going to advise Chen Lu?"

Zhou Lin spoke with righteous indignation.

"Can't I take this opportunity to reflect on myself?"

The two of them burst into laughter.

It's been over a month.

Chen Lu thought he wouldn't contact her anymore.

Zhou Lin leaned closer.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Lu put down her phone.

"It's nothing."

Zhou Lin smiled.

"Just say you miss them."

Chen Lu ignored her.

"Hurry up, we're going to be late."

The three people went out the door.

The setting sun bathed the campus in orange-red hues.

Zhou Lin walked ahead, her steps light and quick. Zhao Yu followed behind her, also wearing light makeup, which was unusual for her. Chen Lu brought up the rear, clutching her phone.

Zhou Lin turned to look at her.

Why are you so nervous?

Chen Lu shook her head.

"I wasn't nervous."

Zhou Lin smiled.

"Your hands are all white, and you still say you weren't nervous."

Chen Lu put her phone in her pocket.

Zhou Lin took her arm.

"Don't be nervous. It's just a meal, not a blind date."

Chen Lu glanced at her.

Aren't you nervous?

Zhou Lin paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Why would I be nervous? It's not like they're seeing me."

Zhao Yu laughed beside her.

Your face is all red.

Zhou Lin touched her face.

"Where? It's hot."

In the setting sun, their shadows stretched long.

Boys' dormitory.

501.

Lin Dong hung up the phone and put it on the table.

Li Hu immediately sat up in bed.

"So, are the senior students coming?"

Lin Dong nodded.

"Come."

Li Hu's eyes lit up, and he rolled out of bed.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Chen Long leaned against the headboard and glanced at him.

"What's your hurry?"

Li Hu has already started putting on his shoes.

"How can we not be in a hurry? The senior students are waiting!"

He turned to look at Xu Zang.

"Second brother, hurry up!"

Xu Zang didn't move, slowly turning a page of his book.

Li Hu got anxious and snatched the book from him.

"Stop looking at it, come back and watch it later."

Xu Zang glanced at him, said nothing, and slowly stood up to put on his shoes.

Chen Long also got out of bed and pushed up his glasses.

"What time are you meeting?"

Lin Dong checked the time.

"Six o'clock. It's 5:30 now."

Li Hu had already rushed to the door.

"Hurry up, it'll take time to get there!"

He turned back and urged them on.

"Hurry, hurry!"

Chen Long put on his shoes at a leisurely pace.

"What's your rush? Walk over there in ten minutes."

Li Hu stomped his feet at the door.

"Ten minutes is still time! What if there's traffic?"

Chen Long smiled.

Why would pedestrians get stuck in traffic?

Li Hu paused for a moment, then laughed at himself.

"Anyway, it's always better to go early."

He looked at himself, then at the mirror.

"Is this outfit okay?"

Chen Long looked him up and down.

"Isn't this how you usually dress?"

Li Hu scratched his head.

"That's different. There are senior students here today."

Chen Long smiled.

No one will look at you no matter what you wear.

Li Hu glared at him, then turned to look at Xu Zang.

"Second brother, do you think this outfit suits me?"

Xu Zang put on his shoes, looked up at him, then looked down again.

"OK.

Li Hu was satisfied.

"Alright, let's go!"

He was the first to rush out of the dormitory.

Chen Long followed behind, leisurely. Xu Zang walked at the very back, still holding the book in his hand, reading as he went.

Lin Dong was the last to leave, closing the door behind him.

In the corridor, Li Hu urged him on from the front.

"Hurry up! Stop dawdling!"

Chen Long laughed from behind.

Why are you walking so fast? It's not like your senior can run away.

Li Hu didn't even turn his head.

"Go early to get a seat! Last time that place was crowded, and there were no seats left if you went late."

Chen Long said, "Weren't you quite talkative just now? Now you're getting anxious?"

Li Hu ignored him and quickened his pace.

The four of them left the dormitory building and walked towards the school gate.

The setting sun bathed the campus in orange-red hues.

The road was full of students going to lunch, in twos and threes.

Li Hu walked at the very front, his steps so fast it looked like he was about to start a fight.

Chen Long followed behind, at a leisurely pace. Xu Zang walked while reading, nearly bumping into people several times, and Lin Dong pulled him back.

Li Hu glanced back.

"Second brother, don't look anymore, look at it when we get there."

Xu Zang ignored him and continued reading.

Having no other option, Li Hu turned and continued walking.

As they approached the school gate, Chen Long suddenly spoke.

Why are you so nervous?

Li Hu paused for a moment.

"Who's nervous?"

Chen Long smiled.

"If you're not nervous, why are you walking so fast?"

Li Hu didn't speak, but he slowed his pace.

Chen Long walked over to his side.

"It's just a meal, not a blind date."

Li Hu glared at him.

"Mind your own business."

Chen Long smiled and said nothing more.

The four of them arrived at the entrance of the grilled fish restaurant.

"Where is he? Hasn't he arrived yet?"

Chen Long leaned against the door.

"What's the rush? I said six o'clock."

Li Hu paced back and forth at the door.

"Shall we go in and grab a seat?"

Lin Dong said, "Let's go in."

The four people walked inside.

The boss recognized them and greeted them with a smile.

"You're here? Same spot as always?"

Li Hu quickly added, "Yes, the usual spot. We'll order when everyone arrives."

Several people sat down.

Li Hu couldn't sit still and kept glancing towards the door.

Chen Long smiled.

"Sit down, and people will come in when they arrive."

Li Hu ignored him and went to the door to wait.

At the entrance of a grilled fish restaurant.

Li Hu stood at the door, looking around.

Seeing the three of them approaching, his eyes lit up, and he turned around and called out.

"Here it comes!"

Chen Long poked his head out of the store and adjusted his glasses.

Xu Zang followed behind, holding a book in his hand.

Lin Dong stood at the very back, and when he saw Chen Lu, his lips twitched.

Chen Lu walked over and glanced at him.

"Have you been waiting long?"

Lin Dong shook his head.

"Just arrived."

Several people walked inside.

Several people sat down.

Chen Lu sat down naturally next to Lin Dong, Zhou Lin sat next to Li Hu, and Zhao Yu sat next to Chen Long.

Xu Zang sat alone on the far side, picking up the menu to look at it.

Li Hu has already started ordering food.

Grilled fish, slightly spicy. Add beef, shrimp, lotus root slices, enoki mushrooms...

'

Chen Long interrupted him.

"Are you sure you can finish all this food?"

Li Hu spoke with righteous indignation.

"I can finish it. I'm happy today."

He glanced at Zhou Lin and added another sentence.

"A few more drinks, please."

The dishes are here.

The grilled fish was steaming hot, and its aroma filled the whole house.

Li Hu was the first to pick up his chopsticks, placing a piece of fish into Zhou Lin's bowl.

"Try it, the grilled fish here is pretty good."

Zhou Lin paused for a moment, then smiled.

"Thanks."

Lin Dong picked up a piece of fish and put it in Chen Lu's bowl.

Chen Lu looked up at him, but Lin Dong didn't look at her and continued eating.

Chen Lu smiled slightly and lowered her head to eat the fish.

Zhou Lin saw this and winked at Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu smiled but didn't say anything.

As Li Hu ate, he became more talkative.

"Fourth brother, you haven't been back for over a month, we've missed you so much."

Lin Dong glanced at him.

"Miss me?"

Li Hu nodded.

"Yes, I want to. If you don't come back, there'll be no one to bring me good food."

Chen Long laughed beside him.

"Is that all you've got?"

Li Hu was unconvinced.

"What's wrong? The braised goose that Fourth Brother brought is really delicious."

He turned to look at Zhou Lin.

"You should try it next time, it's especially delicious."

Zhou Lin smiled.

"Okay."

A few people were eating when a few more people came in through the door.

The one leading the group was tall, wearing a dark blue coat, with his hair neatly combed and a smile on his lips.

As soon as he entered, he glanced around the room and his eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Lin's table.

He walked over.

"Zhou Lin, it's been a long time."
