My Aloof Husband Can't Stop His Devoted Affection-Chapter 500 - 006: Don’t you plan to clarify? _2

The incident of her bumping into Yan Chengxi at the cafeteria this morning was posted on the campus forum and attracted a lot of attention and heated discussion. The girls were still talking about it during lunch, but Lu Shishu didn’t take it to heart at all.

Lu Shishu made plans with them to meet at 1:40 PM under the dormitory building. Since it was still early, they each went back to take a nap.

At 1:30, Lu Shishu got up, washed her face, and quickly put on some makeup. Lin Xuwan called urging her to hurry, and Lu Shishu smiled, saying, "Okay, give me three minutes, I’ll be right down."

After hanging up, Lu Shishu noticed an unread message on WeChat. She opened it to find it was from Nan Jiayan, so she tapped on the chat. There was just a short message: "Do you have class this afternoon?"

Lu Shishu thought for a moment, then typed back two words: ’Nope.’

After putting her phone down, Lu Shishu applied lipstick, grabbed her chain bag from the cabinet, stuffed everything into the bag, picked up her phone, and swiftly left the dorm room.

While going downstairs, Nan Jiayan replied again: ’Any plans for the afternoon?’

Lu Shishu: ’Shopping.’

Nan Jiayan: ’Where to?’

Lu Shishu: ’Over at West Street, buying clothes.’

Nan Jiayan: ’Are you going alone?’

Lu Shishu: ’No, I have two friends with me.’

Nan Jiayan: ’Mind if I join?’

Lu Shishu: ’What’s your plan?’

Nan Jiayan: ’Nothing much, I don’t have class this afternoon either, and there’s something I’d like to ask you in person. It’s about the incident between you and Yan Chengxi this morning.’

Seeing this message, Lu Shishu’s brows knitted, her typing hand paused, and while pondering, Nan Jiayan sent another message: ’Are you heading out from the west gate? It’s closer to West Street, no need to detour, so should I wait there for you?’

Lu Shishu thought for a moment, pursed her lips, and quickly typed a line: "So you saw the post about the quarrel between me and Yan Chengxi this morning?"

Nan Jiayan: ’Yeah, I saw it.’

Lu Shishu: ’So you also saw the post from last night with photos of us, saying we’re together?’

Nan Jiayan: ’Yeah, I saw that too.’

Lu Shishu: ’And then what?’

Nan Jiayan: ’What then?’

Lu Shishu: ’...’

Seeing this string of ellipses from her, Nan Jiayan puzzledly asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Aren’t you going to clear things up? Your admirers are coming to trouble me."

"Who cares about her, she means nothing to me."

"..."

Lu Shishu was speechless once again and eventually couldn’t be bothered to reply to him. After meeting up with He Qianyue and Lin Xuwan downstairs, they headed toward the west gate, chatting and laughing, completely ignoring Nan Jiayan’s messages.

As they were about 50 to 60 meters from the west gate, Lin Xuwan suddenly grabbed Lu Shishu’s arm, stopping abruptly: "Shishu, look, isn’t that Nan Jiayan standing at the entrance up ahead?"

Lu Shishu and He Qianyue followed her gaze and indeed, the charming and sunny figure of Nan Jiayan brazenly caught their eyes. Because the weather was still quite warm, he wore a white lettered T-shirt, paired with light-colored ripped jeans, and white sneakers. His face lit up with a warm, sunny smile as he chatted and laughed with his friends beside him.

"Isn’t the handsome guy next to him the one from the Oil Painting Department, Ling Xuyang? And the other one, the genius from the Graphic Design Department, Ming Haize! They’re so handsome!" He Qianyue also blurtingly joined in, somewhat incredulously. After speaking, she exchanged glances with Lin Xuwan, both shifting their gaze to Lu Shishu.

Receiving their teasing and slightly gossipy stares, Lu Shishu blinked innocently: "Why... why are you looking at me like that?"

"Isn’t that the heartthrob with his two buddies over there, maybe waiting for you, Shishu?"

"If I remember correctly, both Ling Xuyang and Ming Haize are single. What do you think, Shishu, would you like to play matchmaker and introduce us? Give us a chance to get out of being single, maybe? If it works out, we’ll cover your breakfast and lunch for this semester." He Qianyue excitedly grabbed Lu Shishu’s hand, batting her sincere eyes at her questioningly.

"I’m in too, I can even cover your snacks for this semester." Lin Xuwan eagerly nodded in agreement, signaling to He Qianyue, and with a smile asked, "Yuanyuan, do you prefer Ling Xuyang or Ming Haize? Let’s be clear so we don’t end up souring our relationship over a guy; let’s discuss and agree!"
