Help! My hunky roommate is begging me to touch his abs!

With the passing of graduation, classmates who had spent four years together went their separate ways.

Chen Chen and Hu Xiaowen are still struggling for their future and need Jin Bao'er to take care of them.

Meanwhile, our second son, Lu Zhou, had already taken his little girl and embarked on the journey back to his hometown in Shandong.

One hand is large, rough, and has distinct knuckles, a solid feel that comes from years of playing ball.

He held the girl's slender hand firmly, refusing to let go even for a moment.

A tall, 1.85-meter-tall man from Shandong walked ahead, like a solid and reliable mountain, keeping all the noise outside.

No one knew that Lu Zhou, who spent his four years of university wearing ordinary T-shirts, eating in the cafeteria, and sharing a public bathhouse with his roommates, was a different person.

Lu Zhou, who has an honest and simple smile, comes from a well-known local business family with deep roots and a wealthy background.

He never had to worry about making a living or about his future.

Back in my hometown, work had already been arranged.

If one is willing, taking over the family business directly will ensure a stable life.

He's just used to keeping a low profile, used to hiding all his talents.

Be the most ordinary, righteous, and honest person in the crowd.

The young girl beside him was the most unexpected, passionate, and certain surprise of his entire youth.

In fact, this relationship never started with Lu Zhou taking the initiative.

This Shandong man may look rugged, but deep down he is more conservative and serious than anyone else.

Even in high school, he was handsome and tall, and many girls secretly liked him.

But Lu Zhou had only one principle in mind at that time—he was still a minor, and if he promised the girl, he had to be responsible for her.

But he was too young to take on any responsibility, so he refused them all.

So, by his junior year, almost his senior year, he was still single.

And so, he met another enthusiastic and cheerful junior who started pursuing him.

Sometimes it's a cup of milk tea after class.

Sometimes it's a bottle of mineral water during a break after a basketball game.

Sometimes it's small gifts given during holidays.

Lu Zhou was completely stunned the day he was confessed to.

That day, the girl came to the basketball court with her best friend to watch the handsome guys play basketball.

I spotted Lu Zhou sweating it out on the court right away.

Lu Zhou was completely different from his two roommates.

To outsiders, his two other roommates seemed a bit aloof, unfamiliar, and unapproachable.

But the second child is different.

He always greets everyone with a simple, honest smile.

She seems easy to pursue.

He has a very easygoing personality.

You have to fight for what you like yourself.

Sure enough, the girl took a liking to the second son at first sight.

And so began a frantic pursuit.

Until that evening, the setting sun painted the basketball court a gentle orange hue, and people gradually dispersed, leaving only a few wisps of evening breeze.

The girl cornered Lu Zhou against the wall next to the basketball court.

Before Lu Zhou could react, the girl in front of him suddenly stepped forward, her movements decisive and bold.

She simply pulled him into her arms, then placed her hand on the wall, creating a perfect wall slam.

"Lu Zhou, give me an answer, is it okay if I pursue you?"

At this moment, the second brother's dark skin was covered in red.

Lu Zhou froze on the spot.

The tall Shandong man, like a large, tamed dog, froze on the spot, forgetting even to breathe.

The girl tilted her head back, her eyes sparkling as if filled with starlight.

Her tone was both coquettish and straightforward, with a hint of playfulness.

"Lu Zhou, give me an answer—I'll pursue you, okay?"

The moment those words were spoken, the air froze.

Lu Zhou's face turned red from the tips of his ears all the way down to his neck, and then spread to his entire dark face, as if he were being burned by the setting sun.

His pupils trembled slightly, and his large hands clenched into fists in tension.

My heart was pounding so loudly I could hear it myself, pounding against my chest as if it were about to burst out of my chest.

He had never been so flustered in his entire life, nor had he ever felt so sweet.

The girl before him was passionate, bright, and brave, like a beam of light shining directly into his honest and quiet world.

He opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but his voice was hoarse and his throat was tight.

After half a day, he managed to squeeze out only one word, so faint it was almost inaudible:

"……OK."

The girl immediately broke into a smile, like a flower in bloom.

Lu Zhou, standing below the wall, remained blushing, head bowed, not daring to look at her.

But he quietly and carefully touched her fingertips with his rough, large hand.

Once that touch happened, they never let go.

After graduation, without the slightest hesitation, he took the hand of the girl who had bravely run towards him and returned to Shandong together.

Everything had been arranged for them by their family: stable jobs, comfortable living conditions, and a family business waiting for them to inherit. Their future was bright.

But what Lu Zhou was most grateful for was never that his family was rich or that he had a worry-free future.

But it was during his most ordinary, low-key, and inconspicuous years.

There was a girl who didn't care about his background or family circumstances; she was only interested in him as a person.

It burst into his life with great fanfare and joy.

He held her tightly in his rough, large hand and walked steadily forward.

Throughout his life, he will live in the most honest, enduring, and affectionate way a Shandong man can.

He spoiled this brave girl who loved him to the core.
