Tang Yuanyuan had never faced such a situation before, and Zhang Xiaolu seemed to be kind, but she just felt that the latter shouldn’t have picked up her call.
However, her worries vanished completely when she heard Yuchi Yishu’s voice.
“Yishu.”
“Hi,” Yuchi Yishu said in a low voice. “I’m outside your dormitory block. Come down if you’re free.”
Hearing that, Tang Yuanyuan was surprised. “Why have you come here at this time?”
“Don’t you welcome me?”
“No. I’m going down now.”
After the call ended, Tang Yuanyuan had wanted to leave her phone on the bed, but she suddenly thought of something and picked up her phone again before going downstairs.
Zhang Xiaolu and Yuan Yuehan traded glances and tagged along.
“Yuanyuan, has your brother come to visit you? We’ll accompany you.”
“Ah? No need. My brother’s just—”
“It’s fine. We’re free anyway. Let’s go together.”
Before Tang Yuanyuan could react, she was lugged out of the room as they held her arms and went downstairs. Tang Yuanyuan felt strange. She was going to meet her brother, so why did they appear to be more passionate than she was?
When they reached downstairs, Yuchi Yishu had already garnered a lot of attention.
Due to the fact that he was tall and slim, and his handsomeness was in a league of his own, many girls had stopped to watch him.
“He’s so handsome, but I think he’s not from our school. Who is he looking for?”
“Is he looking for his girlfriend?”
“If that’s true, I’ll be envious of the girl who has such a handsome boyfriend.”
Zhang Xiaolu and Yuan Yuehan held Tang Yuanyuan’s arms as they walked over.
“Yishu.”
“Hi, Yishu,” Zhang Xiaolu and Yuan Yuehan called out obediently as well.
Looking at the sandwiched Tang Yuanyuan, Yuchi Yishu remained silent for a while and asked, “Can I have a word with her alone?”
Zhang Xiaolu and Yuan Yuehan were startled for a moment and came to their senses.
“Of course. What are you talking about? We’re here to keep her company. Go on. Yuanyuan, we’ll wait for you over there.”
After they left, Tang Yuanyuan questioned with a smile, “Yishu, aren’t my roommates hospitable?”
Yuchi Yishu looked at the figures of her roommates and thought of something. A moment later, he passed a bag to her.
“For me?”
Tang Yuanyuan took over the bag in shock. “What is it?”
“Sunscreen.”
Hearing that, Tang Yuanyuan opened the bag and saw two tubes of sunscreen. In that instant, she was touched. “Yishu, you’re so good to me, but didn’t Fei say that she had it? I could just share her sunscreen.”
“That belongs to her. How could you use her stuff all the time? What if the sunscreen won’t be enough? The training will be long.”
Tang Yuanyuan found him reasonable. “You’re so thoughtful. I didn’t think about that before. Thanks, Yishu!”
“Silly girl. Go up now.”
“Did you come here just to pass me the sunscreen?”
“What else do you want?”
Tang Yuanyuan gazed at him with her innocent-looking eyes and pouted her lips without saying a word. “N-Nothing.”
Despite what she said, it was apparent that her gaze was filled with disappointment.
“Heartless girl. I’ve come to pass you sunscreen in the middle of the night. Not only have you not asked whether I’ve eaten anything, but you’ve also blamed me for not bringing you food.”
“Erm, that’s not what I mean. I’m wrong. Have you eaten anything? Why don’t I treat you to a meal?”
Yuchi Yishu shot a look at the restless girls in the distance and said in a low voice, “Not today. Maybe next time. Eat something and take a rest as you have training tomorrow. Remember to bring your sunscreen. Read the manual and don’t get sunburned.”
With that, he fished out a delicate box from his pocket and passed it to her. “And, this is for you.”
Tang Yuanyuan’s gaze beamed with joy the moment she saw that box.
“These are chocolate candies. Thanks, Yishu!”
She was so overjoyed that she moved forward and hugged him. In that instant, the spectators were all envious of her.
“Alright, this is embarrassing. You can hug for a while.” Although Yuchi Yishu sounded unsympathetic, his gaze was brimming with affection.
Tang Yuanyuan hugged him for a while and released him in reluctance as she said in a soft voice, “Yishu, why don’t I treat you to a meal? I saw many interesting restaurants on my way to school today. There’s a beef noodle restaurant that I think their food will be tasty.”
As soon as she finished her words, she started craving for it.
Yuchi Yishu understood his sister too well.
“It’s because you want to eat it, right?”
He didn’t want to go out with her at first because her roommates were watching eagerly. However, if it was she who wanted to have a meal, it was a different case.
“Let’s go if you want to eat it. I’ll pay.”
“Thanks, Yishu. Can I call Fei to come? And my two other roommates as well. They treated me to Western food this afternoon.”
“They treated you to Western food, but you’re inviting them for beef noodles. Don’t you think it’s unfair?”
“It’s fine!”
The other roommates had been eavesdropping. Although they were some distance away, they could hear their conversation clearly.
When they heard what Yuchi Yishu said, they rushed over.
“It’s fine. We’re okay with anything. We like beef noodles as well.”
“Really?” Tang Yuanyuan was surprised. “I’m glad that you don’t mind it. My brother will treat us.”
After that, Tang Yuanyuan called Meng Kefei to come down. Although the other roommates were reluctant at first, they dared not show their true colors in front of Yuchi Yishu.
Meng Kefei didn’t want to come down at first, but upon Tang Yuanyuan’s persuasion, she had no choice but to agree to it.
When she came down, Zhang Xiaolu and Yuan Yuehan affectionately came forward and held her arms as though they had forgotten what happened some time ago.
Meng Kefei was reluctant, but Zhang Xiaolu warned in a lowered voice, “Don’t expose us, otherwise I’ll make sure you can’t stay in this school.”
Meng Kefei was enraged by the blatant threat and raised her head to glower at her. Zhang Xiaolu never expected that Meng Kefei would put on this kind of expression. After a pause, she inquired gently, “Kefei, are you feeling unwell? Do you want to call your parents?”
