Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Youyou, who was sitting next to Mo Zhiyun, could not hear Mo Zhiyun clearly due to Mo Zhiyun’s soft voice. Hence, she asked, “What did you say?”
Mo Zhiyun regained her senses and quickly shook her head. “Nothing.”
Su Lanxu took a sip of her cocktail before she stared a Mo Zhiyun for a long while. Then, she asked teasingly, “Are you in a relationship?”
“No,” Mo Zhiyun denied immediately. After that, she seemed to have thought of something, and a bright smile appeared on her face.
Xu Youyou could guess who Mo Zhiyun liked based on Mo Zhiyun’s behavior in the afternoon. It was obvious, after all.
!!
Mo Zhiyun moved to Su Lanxu’s side and asked tentatively, “Do you know Lu Heyun?”
“Lu Heyun?” Su Lanxu tilted her head slightly as she said, “I really don’t know whether to praise you for your taste or not…”
“Hm?” Mo Zhiyun’s curiosity was piqued. She asked, “Why? Hurry up and tell me.”
Xu Youyou’s bright eyes were also filled with curiosity.
It was human nature to gossip, after all.
“Lu Heyun is widely acknowledged as the most handsome student in our Mo City University. The girls who are interested in him can fill all four cafeterias in our university. Not only is he good-looking, but he’s also very smart. He’s also the president of the student council. His character is even better. He can be considered a perfect man,” Su Lanxu said.
Mo Zhiyun had only recently joined Mo City University so she did not know much. As for Xu Youyou, she spent all her time painting so she knew even less than Mo Zhiyun did. Su Lanxu, who was a year older than them, naturally knew more.
A skeptical expression appeared on Xu Youyou’s face immediately when she heard Su Lanxu’s words. In her eyes, no one was better than her Mr. Bai, after all.
“Then, does he have a girlfriend?” Mo Zhiyun asked expectantly.
“I haven’t heard anything about him being in a relationship, but…” Su Lanxu said.
Before Su Lanxu could finish speaking, Mo Zhiyun said excitedly, “Really?! That’s great!”
Su Lanxu smiled knowingly. “What’s so great about that? Don’t tell me you’re thinking about pursuing Lu Heyun?”
Mo Zhiyun took a sip of her fruit juice before she lowered her gaze shyly. Nonetheless, she boldly admitted, “Yes, I want to pursue him.”
Su Lanxu kindly advised Mo Zhiyun. “Don’t waste your time.”
“Why?” Mo Zhiyun frowned immediately. Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with worry as she asked, “Does he have someone he likes?”
“I don’t know if it counts as someone he likes. I only know that he’s very close to a senior from the previous batch…” Su Lanxu replied. After a pause, she added, “Even if he doesn’t have someone he likes, it’s impossible for both of you.”
“Why?” Mo Zhiyun asked unhappily.
“Your statuses are too different. Lu Heyun’s family is very poor. I heard that he was the top scorer in both arts and science for the college entrance exams. He was the best in his province. He entered Mo City University on a scholarship. He relies on the scholarship and part-time jobs for his living expenses. All this time in university, he doesn’t have any social life at all. He doesn’t even go out to eat. He spent all three meals at the cafeteria. He didn’t even order takeout once.”
It was undeniable that Lu Heyun was very outstanding and inspirational. However, Mo Zhiyun’s background could be a problem. She was the complete opposite of Lu Heyun. The Mo family would not allow her to be with a poor boy.
Mo Zhiyun fell silent. After a moment, she muttered, “What era are we living in now? Who cares about these things?”
Su Lanxu shrugged and did not dissuade Mo Zhiyun anymore. It was hard for an outsider to interfere in matters of the heart. Moreover, even nine bulls would not be able to stop a young girl who had just fallen in love.

Similarly, Xu Youyou did not say anything. She did not think it was appropriate to express too many opinions about another person’s relationship. She thought it was better for her to obediently drink her grape juice.
At this time, Mo Shenbai and Xu Jialu, who had just gotten off work, walked into the private room. As soon as the duo entered the room, the three young women fell silent abruptly, and a heavy atmosphere seemed to loom over the room.
Mo Shenbai and Xu Jialu took a seat on both sides of Xu Youyou before Mo Shenbai asked, “What are all of you talking about earlier?”
The atmosphere was too heavy, after all.
Before Xu Youyou could reply, Mo Zhiyun hurriedly said, “It’s nothing! We’re just discussing who’s handsome…”
Mo Shenbai raised an eyebrow as he looked at Mo Zhiyun expressionlessly. Then, he shifted his eyes to Xu Youyou.
Mo Zhiyun shifted her eyes to Xu Youyou as well, looking at Xu Youyou with a pleading expression on her face.
Xu Youyou bit the bullet and nodded. “That’s right.”
“What’s the result?”
“You still need to ask about the result?” Xu Jialu asked, crossing his legs as he sat on the couch. He said, “Obviously, my beautiful face is superior to ordinary humans like you…”
Su Lanxu glanced at Xu Jialu and said, “Your narcissism is indeed superior to ordinary humans.”
Xu Jialu sneered and poke at Su Lanxu’s sore spot. “Don’t insult me just because you can’t get me…”
Su Lanxu did not think much of it and only made a vomiting gesture.
Mo Shenbai looked at the quiet person next to him as he leaned very close to her ear and asked, “Am I the most handsome?”
Xu Youyou did not hesitate at all as she nodded. “Of course! Mr. Bai is the most handsome!”
Xu Jialu spat out a mouthful of wine that he had just drunk as soon as he heard Xu Youyou’s words.
Su Lanxu fell victim to Xu Jialu’s action. She wiped the wine off her face with a piece of tissue. Then, she said through gritted teeth, “Xu Jialu, must you be so disgusting?!”
Xu Jialu acted as though he did not hear Su Lanxu. Instead, he looked at Mo Shenbai with an expression of schadenfreude as he laughed unrestrainedly. He collapsed on the couch, rolling as he laughed. He laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.
Xu Youyou bit her nails and looked at Mo Shenbai furtively from the corners of her eyes. She was relieved when she saw he did not have any reaction. She wondered inwardly, ‘Is it really that funny? It’s not inappropriate at all…’
Meanwhile, Mo Zhiyun was immersed in her thoughts about Lu Heyun. Not paying much attention to this matter. After all, she had already heard Xu Youyou referring to her brother as Mr. Bai in the afternoon.
Similarly, Su Lanxu did not react as well. She only focused on wiping her face.
Xu Youyou felt her head hurt from Xu Jialu’s laughter so she said, “Brother, stop laughing…”
“I’m usually a very serious person, and I don’t usually laugh like that. However, I really can’t help it this time… The nickname is very appropriate for his age…” Xu Jialu said before he continued laughing.
Xu Youyou: “…”
Mo Shenbai, who was very calm, said, “LuLu, calm down. Don’t choke to death.”

Xu Jialu: “…”
‘F*ck! One is Mr. Bai, and one is Lulu. Okay, it seems like we’re going to hurt each other!’
Xu Jialu tried to restrain his laughter, but he really could not. It was too difficult to hold his laughter back.
At this moment, Bo Qi entered the room. When he saw Xu Jialu’s weird expression that was a mix of pain and joy, he asked, “What happened? Did Old Mo beat him up?”
Bo Qi’s voice was filled with anticipation.
Xu Jialu did not reply. Instead, he looked at his sister. “Youyou…”
Xu Jialu’s expression clearly expressed that he wanted Xu Youyou to call Mo Shenbai by his nickname again.
Xu Youyou hesitated. However, she really wanted to know if the nickname was truly so funny. Hence, she timidly called out, “Mr. Bai, I want to eat oranges…”
Similarly, Bo Qi, who had just taken a seat, spat out the wine he had just drunk. Then, he, who had usually been reserved, began to laugh. His laughter grew louder and louder; he could not control himself.

Xu Youyou: “…”
Then, Xu Youyou looked at Mo Shenbai with a pitiful expression and said, “I really didn’t do it on purpose.”
Mo Shenbai calmly peeled the orange in his hand and fed Xu Youyou a slice of orange before he said, “Don’t bother with them…”
‘There’ll be plenty of opportunities for me to teach them a lesson in the future…’
Xu Youyou opened her mouth and ate the orange. She felt rather indignant and was not amused at all. She picked up her glass and drank everything in one gulp. Very soon after that, she discovered what she had drunk was not her grape juice but wine. She could clearly feel the distinct burn of alcohol in her throat.
