Chapter 190: Your Senior Student Ziyi is Worried About You?
“What Lu Ziyi says, is there any reason to doubt it?” Lu Ziyi sat up straight on the sofa, looking down at Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun. “I’ve always been a serious person!”
Lin Houchun cried, “Ziyi, then when you said you hated us, was that serious too?”
Lu Ziyi’s lips curved into a cold smile. “Could it be otherwise?”
“Lu Ziyi! We hate you!”
Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun lunged forward, one grabbing his neck, the other pounding his chest.
You good-for-nothing Lu Ziyi, we worked our fingers to the bone for you. Although we knew our relationship was as flimsy as plastic flowers, you didn’t have to say it so directly, did you?
“Cough, cough!” Lu Ziyi continued, “If my marriage proposal to Xiaoxiao is successful, I’ll give you a week off, and your commission will increase by three points.”
“Heh heh!” Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun beamed with joy, one massaging his shoulders, the other pounding his thighs.
“Ziyi, hurry up and propose to Xiaoxiao! Immediately! Right now! You’ll definitely succeed because you—”
Zhao Congrui and Lin Houchun extended their left and right hands respectively, pressing their palms against Lu Ziyi’s cheeks and flattering him profusely: “Handsome—”

In the girls’ dormitory, Ye Chuxiao sat in a chair at her desk, looking at the class QQ group on her laptop screen. Her classmates were stuck inside due to the rain and couldn’t go out to play, so they were chatting, sharing jokes and pictures, making a lively scene.
Ye Chuxiao’s spirits were low. For some reason, she felt uneasy. Perhaps it was because the rain had been falling for too long, making everything feel too oppressive.
The other three girls in the dormitory were busy with their own things.
An Xiazhi was still playing a game, muttering, “Why hasn’t Senior Student Houchun logged on yet? Rainy days are perfect for playing games!”
Xu Luoxi, who was applying a face mask, teased, “Is it because without Senior Student Houchun, you feel like you’ve lost a hundred million worth of equipment?”
An Xiazhi: “Hmph hmph!”
“Xiaoxiao,” Xu Luoxi turned around in her chair at the desk, “Ask your Senior Student Ziyi to give Senior Student Houchun some time off. Our Zhizhi has been waiting alone for so long!”
“Huh?” Ye Chuxiao, who had been spacing out, snapped back to attention, not quite understanding what Xu Luoxi and An Xiazhi were talking about.
An Xiazhi puffed up like a startled chick and exclaimed, “Luoxi, what do you mean waiting alone? Do you even know how to use words? Don’t talk nonsense!”
Dorm Leader Bai Qianqian added another blow, “Not just waiting alone, she’s practically a lovesick shrew! Xiaoxiao, hurry up and call Senior Student Ziyi, tell him to give Senior Student Houchun some time off. And while he’s at it, have Senior Student Ziyi pick you up for a date, so you’re not moping around here.”
Where am I moping around? Ye Chuxiao grumbled inwardly, wondering what Senior Student Ziyi was doing now. He had told her on the phone that it was raining heavily and she didn’t need to go to the design studio, so he might be resting tonight too.
But if Senior Student Ziyi and the others were resting, Brother Hou Chun would probably be online playing games, right?
It’s also possible that Senior Student Ziyi is resting, but Brother Hou Chun is still working overtime!
Sigh, Ye Chuxiao realized that going to the design studio had become a habit. Without it for a day, she didn’t even know what to do with herself.
“Xiaoxiao,” Bai Qianqian instructed, “When Senior Student Ziyi comes to pick you up, ask him to bring a bag of tomato-flavored potato chips along.”
Xu Luoxi: “I want a bag of matcha-flavored sunflower seeds.”
An Xiazhi: “I want two bags of spicy strips.”
Ye Chuxiao pouted. With this strong wind and heavy rain, how could you ask Senior Student Ziyi to come over? And have him bring potato chips, sunflower seeds, and spicy strips for you all?
“What?” The three girls glared at Ye Chuxiao. “Are you feeling sorry for your Senior Student Ziyi now? Are you prioritizing romance over friendship? Are you being inhuman because you have a boyfriend?”
