Zhou Yuwen couldn’t help but laugh, feeling that Liu Shuo was so ridiculously "chuunibyou," acting like some young gangster.
"I’ll leave this side to you then," Yuwen said.
"Don’t worry, bro!" Liu Shuo gestured an OK sign.
Zhou Yuwen, holding Zheng Yanyan’s hand, intended to leave but noticed that Yanyan seemed reluctant to go, so he couldn’t help asking, "What’s up? You want to stay here?"
"No, that’s not it."
At that moment, Zheng Yanyan’s cheeks were flushed, and her head was somewhat feverish. Really, she thought, it would take her a very long time to digest everything that had happened today.
Lu Lin was also standing behind them, apart from Zheng Yanyan.
Zhou Yuwen asked her, "What, you want to take half a bottle of wine home to drink?"
Only then did Lu Lin realize she was still holding a bottle in her hand, promptly putting it back on the table without another word.
She followed behind Zhou Yuwen and left.
Liu Shuo grinned as he saw them out.
Zhou Yuwen told him not to make it too big of a deal.
"Of course, bro, we’re all university students, how could we mess around senselessly!" Liu Shuo grinned.
Even though Zhou Yuwen and the others had walked far away, Liu Shuo was still waving goodbye, eventually giving enough face to even say, "Bro, next time bring the sister-in-law, I’ll treat you both to a meal!"
"Sister-in-law, take care on your way!"
His words left Zheng Yanyan blushing with giddy happiness, her cheeks excitedly flushed.
Other girls were certainly envious of Zheng Yanyan.
Even Lu Lin felt a bit jealous of Yanyan, always feeling that Zheng Yanyan was somewhat unworthy of Zhou Yuwen.
She thought Yanyan wasn’t really up to par, like those unnecessary words Zheng Yanyan had spoken earlier.
The few societal figures in the room breathed a sigh of relief as they listened to Zhou Yuwen leave with the girls.
But what did he need brains for when the Xu Huai Association only needed one brain?
What happened in the barbeque restaurant wasn’t known to Zhou Yuwen nor anyone else. Sure, Liu Shuo knew how to hold back, but he had to make it clear to everyone that whoever dared to mess with Zhou Yuwen was in for it. It wasn’t just about teaching those societal figures a lesson; it was also a warning to the strong lads that they better not assume his brother was easy to talk to!
Without realizing it, it was already eleven o’clock. More than a month had passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival, through the waxing and waning of the moon, and tonight was yet another full moon.
Zhou Yuwen was strolling with a group of girls on the serpentine paths of the campus, which at that time was unusually quiet. The girls were chattering about the incident that had just occurred.
It was indeed a huge shock to them, fresh into college; some even wondered if this was what university life was like.
They now viewed Zhou Yuwen with a blend of awe and admiration, yet found him enigmatic. They had been bold enough to toast Zhou Yuwen during the meal,
But now, even speaking to him made their hearts race.
They walked ahead, sneaking glances back at Zhou Yuwen from time to time.
The more they looked, the more charismatic Zhou Yuwen seemed to them.
The girls flattered Zheng Yanyan incessantly, addressing her with an evident sense of reverence, fearful of angering her.
Yanyan naturally enjoyed others’ flattery, taking it for granted.
When they called her "Sister Yanyan," she considered it her due.
However, Lu Lin, watching from the side, found Zheng Yanyan too petty, a type of girl who would only cause trouble for Zhou Yuwen, who was spoiling her.
Zhou Yuwen and Tao Tian were the ones walking behind.
Zhou Yuwen asked Tao Tian, "You alright?"
"Huh?" Tao Tian appeared to be distracted.
Zhou Yuwen said, "Were you scared by that guy just now?"
Tao Tian quickly shook her head no, although initially making a sound of acknowledgment.
"I just think you seem a bit preoccupied."
Zhou Yuwen said with a smile, always giving the impression of being gentle and well-mannered. He dressed simply, in a clean and refreshing style that made him seem very approachable.
