Study System: I'm a 38-Year-Old Student-Chapter 202 - 148: The Power of Appearance in College!
The four girls were chattering away.
The courage displayed by Shen Yanran allowed Chen Jiahuan and the others to gain a deeper understanding of this "most beautiful freshman" who was already famous on the school forum.
Meanwhile, the four girls at the table behind Shen Yanran were whispering among themselves.
Especially the girl who got rejected when she asked for WeChat, her eyes were full of jealousy when she looked at Shen Yanran.
But she had to admit, the girl’s appearance really crushed her own.
Tsk!
Boys are indeed visual creatures!
The rejected girl cursed in her heart. After they finished eating, the four of them picked up their trays and left.
As soon as they left, four boys with trays came over.
The one walking in front was a boy with curly hair, and as he walked, he shouted to the back, "Boss, Third, hurry up!"
"It’s not easy to find an empty spot!"
This curly-haired boy was Yu Bo, Shen Yixiao’s roommate. Like most male dormitories, they also arranged themselves by age last night.
The retired Olympic champion, Pu Jeongjae, unquestionably became the boss.
Yu Bo was the second, Shen Yixiao was the third, and Doctor Liu, who was only a month younger than Shen Yixiao, became the fourth.
Shen Yixiao walked at the back of the group, holding a tray in one hand while texting Luo Yao on his phone with the other.
He was telling her about his dad’s glorious achievements during military training!
But today, for some reason, Luo Yao’s responses were noticeably slower than usual.
"Look quickly!"
"Another handsome guy!"
"This one isn’t bad either!"
"And he’s a freshman!"
Gao Shanshan and Wang Shihan whispered to each other.
The person they were whispering about was naturally Shen Yixiao.
Inherited good genes from his dad and the Lin Family, Shen Yixiao was quite popular among girls even back in high school.
However, his relationship with Luo Yao got to the point where they openly did self-criticism.
So even the girls who had a crush on him wouldn’t openly express it anymore.
Except Zhao Dongmei, of course.
She was the only one who didn’t give up even after knowing Shen Yixiao had a girlfriend, though she didn’t do anything out of line after he started dating.
She was more of the silent wait-and-see type!
Right now, Zhao Dongmei had been admitted to Beijing Normal College, just like Luo Yao, she was in Beijing.
However, Zhao Dongmei originally wanted to attend Sanjiang University, but her grades weren’t enough, so she had to give up.
"But he’s not as good as Xiao Sinian." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Gao Shanshan added another comment.
"Not the same type, right?"
"This one’s obviously sporty, look at that skin tone."
Wang Shihan didn’t agree with her roommate’s opinion.
"I still think Xiao Sinian is more handsome!"
"Yanran, what do you think?"
Gao Shanshan brought in Shen Yanran as reinforcement, since she had added Xiao Sinian on WeChat, she must agree with her perspective.
Hearing her roommate cue her, Shen Yanran turned her head to look and then rolled her eyes dramatically, "Him?"
"Not even a hundred of him could compare to Xiao Sinian!"
"Yanran, you’re exaggerating a bit!"
"The gap isn’t that big, is it?"
Gao Shanshan and Wang Shihan were not having it, they both had a good opinion of this handsome fellow freshman.
The guy’s skin had a healthy tan, he was tall and well-built, with a clean and neat buzz cut giving him a roguish charm.
Just as they were feeling indignant for the guy, he surprisingly strode directly towards them.
Seeing this, the two girls immediately chickened out.
They instinctively lowered their heads, pretending to eat their food seriously.
Hmm, he must be here to ask Yanran for her WeChat again!
The two of them thought silently to themselves.
After all, it had happened a few times before.
However, to their utter surprise, the handsome guy came over and slapped Shen Yanran on the shoulder, "Shen Yanran, you pretended not to see me?"
"What do you want!"
Shen Yanran impatiently shrugged her shoulder to shake off Shen Yixiao’s hand.
In her eyes, he wasn’t some handsome guy!
He was but an "annoying" little brother!
"I didn’t buy a drink, I’m taking your yogurt!"
Next to Shen Yanran’s tray was the yogurt she had prepared for herself after the meal.
But Shen Yixiao, with a wave of his hand, claimed the yogurt as his own.
"Give it back to me!!"
Shen Yanran reached out to grab it back, but with his battle experience, Shen Yixiao easily dodged her.
He twisted the cap open, took a sip directly, and then licked the milk stain off his lips, "Still want it?"
"Get lost!!"
Angrily, Shen Yanran kicked Shen Yixiao, though he nimbly dodged it.
Seeing this scene, all of their roommates were dumbfounded, except Chen Jiahuan, who had met Shen Yixiao before.
Yu Bo and Doctor Liu exchanged glances, "Isn’t his girlfriend in Beijing?"
"What’s going on?"
"One in Beijing, one at university?"
Wang Shihan and Gao Shanshan were both extremely shocked, with big question marks in their minds.
Shen Yanran had just added Xiao Sinian on WeChat earlier, so why was she so close with this guy?
"Hello to you both!"
"My name is Shen Yixiao!"
"You two must be Shen Yanran’s roommates, I’m her brother, we’re twins, she was just born a little earlier than me..."
Seeing the doubt on Gao Shanshan and Wang Shihan’s faces, Shen Yixiao introduced himself with a beaming smile.
"Huh?"
"Brother??"
Learning Shen Yixiao’s identity at first shocked both girls, but then their faces lit up with bright smiles.
A brother is great!
Wouldn’t that be like having the advantage of proximity!
"Hi, I’m Wang Shihan."
"I’m Gao Shanshan!"
Both of them enthusiastically introduced themselves.
Seeing her two roommates’ lovestruck expressions, Chen Jiahuan silently grumbled to herself: Give it a rest, he’s already got a girlfriend!
After nabbing Shen Yanran’s yogurt, Shen Yixiao happily returned to his seat to eat with his roommates.
With their meal finished, Shen Yanran and her three companions headed towards the dish return area, carrying their trays.
"Yanran, with such a handsome little brother, you never mentioned it?"
Wang Shihan said with a chuckle.
"Handsome?"
"I think he’s just average!"
Shen Yanran scoffed and turned up her nose.
"That’s just your opinion, I find him quite handsome!"
"Yeah, he’s just a little less good-looking than Xiao Sinian."
Gao Shanshan chimed in to agree.
Shen Yanran shook her head, anyway, she never found Shen Yixiao particularly handsome, at most he was just not ugly.
They left the cafeteria.
The four of them headed to the alumni supermarket under the cafeteria.
Girls, after all, like to stock up on snacks and such.
After a round of shopping, the four of them went back to the dorm together.
"Yanran, try this yogurt."
Wang Shihan handed a newly bought bottle of yogurt to Shen Yanran.
"Yanran, these chips are really tasty."
Gao Shanshan handed over a bag of chips.
"Uh, you guys..."
Shen Yanran furrowed her brows lightly.
Out of her three roommates, she was closest to Chen Jiahuan; firstly because they met first, and secondly because they got along well.
While Gao Shanshan and Wang Shihan got along better, although the four of them moved together, small circles of two were beginning to form.
So, faced with Gao Shanshan and Wang Shihan’s sudden enthusiasm, Shen Yanran was inevitably a bit confused.
"You two trying to win over Yanran won’t work."
"Shen Yixiao already has a girlfriend!"
Chen Jiahuan, who had seen through it all, said from the side.
"Huh?"
"Really?"
Both of them were shocked.
"Yeah, really."
Shen Yanran nodded: "But, his girlfriend is in Beijing, it’s a long-distance relationship."
"Oh, I see."
After receiving confirmation, both of their faces showed disappointment.
However, Wang Shihan quickly adjusted her mood, she said with a smile: "I didn’t mean anything by it, just thought your brother was quite handsome, wanted to be friends!"
"Yanran, can you give me your brother’s WeChat?"
Initially, Wang Shihan was also quite disappointed, but upon hearing it was a long-distance relationship, her thoughts started stirring.
Long-distance relationships imply great uncertainty!
Better to add him as a friend first.
What if they break up!
"Alright."
"Anyway, I think he’s quite silly!"
Shen Yanran shrugged indifferently, then directly sent Shen Yixiao’s WeChat contact to Wang Shihan.
"Yanran, send it to me too."
Realizing a bit late, Gao Shanshan added.
It’s not without reason that she and Wang Shihan got along well, both were thoughtful girls.
In the cafeteria.
Yu Bo handed his big chicken leg from his plate to Shen Yixiao: "Third Bro, I can’t finish it, you have more to eat."
"Thanks, Second Bro."
"You’re the best!"
Feeling the care from his roommate, Shen Yixiao quickly expressed his thanks.
"Third Bro, have some ribs."
"The ribs in the cafeteria are really quite good."
Doctor Liu gave all three remaining ribs from his plate to Shen Yixiao.
"Uh?"
This made Shen Yixiao finally sense something was off, he raised his head and looked at Doctor Liu sitting across from him: "Fourth Bro, you can’t finish yours either?"
"That’s not important!"
Doctor Liu waved his hand with a smile: "The important thing is, Third Bro, you’re well-fed!"
"Third Bro, I’ll give you my rib too."
Yu Bo sent the only remaining rib from his plate to Shen Yixiao.
"What’s with you two?"
"Just say it outright!"
Shen Yixiao put down his chopsticks and looked at the two of them suspiciously.
"Third Bro, was that your sister just now?"
"Your real sister?"
Yu Bo asked with a grin.
"You mean Shen Yanran?"
Shen Yixiao asked rhetorically, somewhat speechless.
"Yes, yes, yes."
"It’s Shen Yanran!"
Yu Bo kept nodding.
"I said it just now!"
"We’re fraternal twins, she was born a little earlier than me."
Shen Yixiao shrugged: "I couldn’t squeeze past her when we came out, otherwise I would be the older one!"
"Third Bro, does your sister have a boyfriend?"
Doctor Liu asked with a face full of anticipation.
"Boyfriend?"
Hearing those three words, Shen Yixiao couldn’t help but burst into laughter: "Her? Where would she find a boyfriend!"
"Always so fierce, any man would be scared off!"
"So, she doesn’t have a boyfriend??"
Yu Bo and Doctor Liu both had a light in their eyes.
"Nope."
"Just a single dog!"
Shen Yixiao turned up his nose disdainfully and couldn’t help but silently add in his heart: Unlike me, who’s got a sweetheart!
Just as he finished, Yu Bo handed him a bottle of cola he had just bought: "Third Bro, have a drink!"
Not willing to be outdone, Doctor Liu handed over his purchased Red Bull: "Third Bro, drink this, better than his!"
