My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot-Chapter 93: Why Does She Sound More and More Like Zhou Shuyan?
Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Why Does She Sound More and More Like Zhou Shuyan?
"Hmm..." Lu Youxi pondered aloud, "I like someone tall and slim, but not the frail, bookish kind of slim without muscles—rather, the type that looks slim in clothes, but has muscles when the clothes come off. The muscles shouldn’t be too big, just well-proportioned with smooth lines, though he definitely needs to have abs."
"Someone mature, who handles things neatly and with meticulous care. He thinks things through comprehensively, yet if any misunderstandings arise, he can clarify them on the spot with clear explanations," Lu Youxi continued as she thought aloud, "If he’s made a mistake, he should be able to apologize right then and there without caring about his own pride, admitting his errors. And when others try to bully me or my family, he should be able to stand up and firmly protect us."
As she spoke, Zhou Shuyan’s face gradually began to emerge in Lu Youxi’s mind.
She abruptly stopped.
What was happening?
Why did her description increasingly resemble Zhou Shuyan?
And why was Zhou Shuyan’s face appearing in her mind!
Lu Xiaohui blinked, teasing her, "You’re being so specific; is there someone like that?"
"It was you who asked me what type of person I like, right? So, I was just describing it in detail," Lu Youxi replied, her face numb with embarrassment, as Zhou Shuyan’s face in her mind became more vivid and harder to dismiss.
"That makes sense," Lu Xiaohui nodded, "After all, where could one find such a perfect person?"
"..." Lu Youxi’s lips trembled slightly, "Per... perfect?"
"Isn’t it?" Lu Xiaohui nodded vigorously, "Just consider the physique you described; how many men can achieve that? I’m not counting models, internet celebrities who rely on their looks and bodies, or male celebrities. Think about the everyday, ordinary men—how many of them can appear slim in clothes, yet have muscles underneath? And not just any muscles, they need well-defined lines and abs too. How much self-discipline would it take to maintain such a shape?"
"I think that’s actually the easiest point among those you’ve mentioned. As long as you put in effort and persist in exercising, it’s achievable. But to resolve misunderstandings instantly? Have you never been in a relationship? Don’t you know that during arguments, a man’s mantra is ’okay, okay, okay, I’m wrong; are you happy now? Let’s just say it’s my fault.’ If that’s what you want to believe, then I can’t help it."
Lu Youxi: "..."
Suddenly, she felt like her experiences from her past life were utterly useless.
Even this unmarried young girl, Lu Xiaohui, seemed more practical than her.
"A man apologizing to you? How many can actually do that?" Lu Xiaohui scoffed, "They all care so much about their pride. As for being able to protect you, reliable guys definitely can, but when it comes to reliability versus unreliability, I would say it’s fifty-fifty."
"Sister, your standard is honestly a bit high!" Lu Xiaohui whispered.
Lu Youxi: "..."
"I was just saying," Lu Youxi chuckled dryly, "Didn’t you ask about my ideal type? There’s definitely a gap between ideals and reality."
"That’s true," Lu Xiaohui nodded, "I’ll look into Lin Jingshen’s reputation later; I think he’s somewhat interested in you."
"No need to go to the trouble," Lu Youxi quickly said, "Regardless of his reputation, he’s just not my type."
Lu Xiaohui blinked, "But today is only the first time you’ve met him; apart from his appearance, you know nothing else about him."
"I just don’t like someone who shows too much enthusiasm based solely on first appearances," Lu Youxi said, "It feels too superficial."
Lu Xiaohui: "..."
That’s not wrong.
Lu Xiaohui couldn’t help admiring Lu Youxi, "You see things more clearly. I only noticed that Lin Jingshen seemed like a good catch, without thinking any deeper about it."
Lu Youxi inwardly smiled bitterly; it wasn’t that she saw things more clearly, but rather that she had learned from her past mistakes.
If she still fell into the same pit after being hurt, then she would be really foolish!
Lu Youxi looked up at the sky briefly. Hadn’t she been deceived by Lin Jingshen’s outward appearance in her past life?
She wasn’t after Lin Jingshen’s family wealth; she merely thought Lin Jingshen was gentle, considerate, and gentlemanly—not to mention she also found him attractive.
Lu Youxi admitted she was somewhat superficial.
She judged people by their appearances.
Only after marrying Lin Jingshen did she slowly realize his true nature at home, and how different it was from the facade he presented outside.
Looking back, her judgment in her past life was really poor.
Whether towards her family or Lin Jingshen, she was foolishly naive.
The two arrived at their dormitory, where the other two roommates had already arrived.
One was Xia Jinqiao from Shengang City, and the other was Mo Yuchun from Guan City.
Mo Yuchun was quiet and not very talkative, while Xia Jinqiao was more outgoing, though not as extroverted as Lu Xiaohui.
However, despite Mo Yuchun being quiet and reserved, she conversed and behaved with grace and ease alongside Xia Jinqiao, both appearing to be decent people.
"By the way, how did you two come together? Did you know each other before?" Xia Jinqiao, who had arrived just a bit earlier than Lu Youxi and Lu Xiaohui, was making their beds while asking.
"We didn’t know each other before," Lu Xiaohui answered while unpacking her luggage, "We just happened to get acquainted when a senior was showing a few of us freshmen around during registration. Youxi and I just started chatting along the way."
"It must be fate," Mo Yuchun, who had finished unpacking, was helping the three of them, assisting wherever needed, and at the moment was helping Lu Xiaohui with her bedding.
"Yeah, we talked quite a bit on the way," thought Lu Xiaohui, considering that Lu Youxi wouldn’t mind her speaking about her matters, so she decided to promote Lu Youbang a bit.
She couldn’t let that cruel, hypocritical guy have an easy time in school!
She thought, Lu Youxi bringing up Lu Youbang’s issues must also have this intention.
"Youxi is really straightforward, saying whatever is on her mind without hiding anything," Lu Xiaohui said as she began looking around, "By the way, do you have a cloth?"
"We do; it’s on the washbasin," Mo Yuchun pointed towards the bathroom direction.
"Speaking of which, we four are going to live together for the next four years. How about we gather for a meal tonight?" Xia Jinqiao suggested.
Lu Xiaohui returned from the restroom with a wet cloth, wiping her desk while replying, "About that... shall we just eat in the cafeteria? The school cafeteria is open, right? If it feels inconvenient to talk there, we can buy some food from the cafeteria and come back to eat."
She had heard before coming that the meals at Jing University’s cafeteria were much cheaper than outside.
"What’s the matter? Is eating outside inconvenient?" Xia Jinqiao was puzzled, "I heard from the senior who welcomed us that there are a few restaurants near our university that are cheap and good. Though, indeed, they are a bit more expensive than the cafeteria."
"Let’s stick with the cafeteria," Lu Xiaohui decided, considering Lu Youxi’s situation.
