The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 147

Chapter 147: When a Man Casts Away His Dignity, He’s Even Scarier Than A Woman (1)

With his earphones plugged into his ears, Lin Jiage didn’t hear what the male student said. However, he clearly noticed the appearance of the light blue letter in his peripheral vision.

There’s a pink heart sticker pasted on the envelope…?

Lin Jiage didn’t need to guess what it was.

There was no way he wouldn’t know. He had received far too many of such things ever since he was young.

In fact, he had even received one with the exact same envelope!

This is too much, okay? How dare that student give Soft Bun a love letter right in front of me?

Lin Jiage thought as he discreetly took out one of his earpieces and glared at the male student who had given the letter to Shi Yao.

However, oblivious to Lin Jiage’s presence, the eyes of the male student were fixated on Shi Yao.

The heck, are you taking a big living man like me as someone invisible? How dare you look at Soft Bun with such lecherous eyes?

It took a lot of effort for Lin Jiage to suppress the urge to leap forward and dig out the eyeballs of the male student before him. While playing his game inattentively, his eyes kept drifting to the male student with increasing frequency.

With one side of his earpiece taken out, he could hear the words of the male student loud and clear.

“Shi Yao, you have to read it, okay?”

Okay? You’re a man! Okay, your head!

At this point, Lin Jiage had already forgotten that he’d just thought ‘This is too much, okay?’ and was currently grumbling disdainfully in his mind.

“… Also, Shi Yao, I hope that you’ll remember my name. My name is Qin Shou; Qin from ‘Qin Shi Huang’, and Shou from the word ‘birthday’ (Shou Chen[1])…”

Pft… Lin Jiage couldn’t help but sneer in his heart.

What Qin from ‘Qin Shu Huang’ and Shou from ‘birthday’? It should be Qin from ‘poultry’ (Jia Qin), and Shou from ‘beast’ (Ye Shou[2])?

After saying his piece, the man continued to look longingly at Shi Yao before quietly running back to his seat not too far away.

Due to his moment of inattention, Lin Jiage died from a headshot by another player, so he left the game and put down his phone. He shot another glance at the male student who had just given Shi Yao a love letter, and he realized that instead of studying, the latter was ‘shyly’ peeking at Shi Yao.

Just what was this world turning into?

It was bad enough that some women were becoming mistresses of married men—to think that even men were doing the same too!

And worse, that guy has the audacity to do it right in front of me!

It looks like I was too ignorant about the world. When a man casts away his dignity, he can be scarier than a woman!

Frowning, Lin Jiage tore his gaze away from that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’ guy to look at Shi Yao.

The young lady had placed the love letter on the side of the table, not opening it to take a look. Paying no heed to it, she lowered her head and continued to work on her mock paper impassively.

Apparently, she was so used to this happening that it didn’t even faze her anymore.

It looks like Soft Bun has no interest in that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’ guy, or else she wouldn’t be so calm.

But, why was that ‘Qin Shou (barbarous beast)’ still looking at Soft Bun?

The library is a sacred place for studying—not to look at girls!

It seems like the culture at G University is really degenerating; the management should start enforcing some rules to control the situation!

The male student’s act of staring at Shi Yao left Lin Jiage feeling more and more irritated inside. At this moment, he caught sight of Shi Yao’s mock paper, and an idea flashed across his mind. Thus, he began inching his chair towards Shi Yao and swiftly scanned through the Mathematics paper she was working on. Then, he reached out and pointed at a specific question on the paper and said, “You did this question wrong…”

Shi Yao had been so focused on her mock paper that she didn’t notice Lin Jiage’s actions at all. It was only when he spoke up that she suddenly realized that he was very close to her.

What is he doing?

Shi Yao looked at Lin Jiage doubtfully.

Disregarding Shi Yao’s gaze, Lin Jiage continued pointing to the paper as he pretended to be intimate with her. However, the words that he spoke truly weren’t intimate at all, “You got this question wrong too. This one too. That’s such an easy question, and you still managed to get it wrong?”

[1] In Chinese, there are many characters that have identical pronunciations. Therefore, it’s common for one to reference the character in their name to something more commonly known so that the other party will understand what they’re referring to. Qin Shi Huang refers to the founder of the Qin Dynasty, more commonly known as the man who united China and ordered for the building of the Great Wall of China. Shou Chen is a term commonly used to refer to the birthday of an elder.

[2] Lin Jiage is interpreting his name using different characters. Qin Shou’s real name is 秦寿, which is quite a majestic name. However, Lin Jiage is interpreting it to be 禽兽 instead, which means ‘barbarous beast’. This is a word often used to criticize others for being inhumane.
