Chapter 112: Chapter 92: Identity Revealed, My Roommate is the Great Writer? (Two-in-One, Please Subscribe)

Zhong Tingyue’s question made the other girls in the dorm fall silent as they all waited for Bai Weixi’s response.

According to Bai Weixi’s story, the boy had pursued her for three years with meticulous care and complete dedication. He even gambled his future on her when filling out his college application. Such deep affection...

A boyfriend like that is hard to find even with a lantern! We want one too! If we ever met someone like that, we’d treasure him like a gem and make sure no other girl snatched him away.

Yet, Bai Weixi had rejected him three times in a row.

No wonder the boy was unwilling to continue pursuing her. He had either found a better person to pursue or had a sudden epiphany.

Zhong Tingyue was speechless. How could Bai Weixi reject such a warm-hearted guy three times and still have the nerve to complain about him? The key question is, does she actually like the guy or not? If not, then it doesn’t matter; she should just reject him outright. If she does like him, then the problem lies with her.

That’s why she had posed the question.

It was a question Bai Weixi had also pondered many times, and she had her own answer in her heart.

Bai Weixi hesitated slightly, then slowly spoke. "I think I probably like him, but it’s not a deep, unforgettable love. I always feel like there’s something missing... something that would make him a true partner."

The expressions of the other five girls in the dormitory varied.

Xu Tingrou understood. The boy pursuing Bai Weixi hadn’t met her ideal standard, but he was genuinely good to her. There probably wasn’t a better guy around, which was why she was so hesitant and indecisive—afraid to lose him, yet too afraid to truly get close... Xu Tingrou felt a little sorry for the boy. Bai Weixi might be very pretty, but he didn’t have to hang all his hopes on her. Perhaps that was why he’d changed his mind and his target after coming to university and seeing things more clearly.

Wang Lisha scoffed, siding with Bai Weixi. "Weixi, you can’t take all the blame," she encouraged. "We girls can’t be casual about finding a boyfriend. I’m not saying we have to put them through eighty-one trials, but we should at least test them, right? You only rejected him three times and he gave up? A man like that isn’t worth keeping."

"Shasha is right," Deng Meiqi added in agreement. "In a relationship, we girls are often at a disadvantage. If he’s not someone you can entrust your life to, you can’t just agree so easily. Weixi, I think you did the right thing."

Ding Shanshan couldn’t stand it anymore. She felt there was something wrong with Wang Lisha and Deng Meiqi’s way of thinking.

"So according to you, we girls should just accept anyone who comes along, date someone suitable for a while, and then dump them all when we find the *most* suitable person?" she challenged. "That kind of behavior... I feel it’s improper. If you really like someone, give them hope or just say yes. If you don’t, then reject them outright. Why lead them on?"

Wang Lisha retorted, "What if it’s somewhere in between, like Weixi’s situation? She likes him, but not *that* much. She’s satisfied, but not *completely* satisfied. What choice should she make?"

Ding Shanshan was momentarily stumped. After thinking about it, she realized there really wasn’t a good solution. If Bai Weixi refused him outright, she might never find someone as good again. But if she agreed without him meeting her ideal standards, she would likely regret settling.

"See, Shanshan? Even you find it hard to choose," Wang Lisha said with a triumphant smile. "You can’t blame Weixi for this. If anyone’s to blame, it’s the boy for not being outstanding enough to make Weixi choose him without any hesitation."

"Hmph! Whatever. I just feel it’s unfair to the guy," Ding Shanshan snorted, glancing at Bai Weixi. "A relationship should be between equals, not just using someone as a backup plan while you look for something better."

Zhong Tingyue’s head was still clear, and she internally agreed with Ding Shanshan.

Holding Bai Weixi’s hand, she earnestly suggested, "Weixi, you should seriously think about your most genuine feelings. If you still like him and don’t want to lose him, you should take the initiative to make amends. Since he pursued you for three years, he must still have feelings for you. If you don’t think he’s your ideal type, then it’s better to make a clean break. It’s fine for both of you to go your separate ways and not bother each other. There are plenty of excellent boys in Daxia. With your qualifications, Weixi, what kind of guy couldn’t you find? There’s no need to be sad."

Hearing the advice from her roommates, Bai Weixi was stunned once again...

...

When Li Yuan returned to his dormitory, he found his night-owl roommates still awake.

Zhou Tianyu was playing Cross Fire, Liu Jia was exploring the new computer he bought today, Yi Jing was sitting on his bed studying a new computer science textbook, Xu Ziqiang was glued to his phone on the top bunk, and Wu Hao was on the balcony making a phone call.

Seeing Li Yuan come in, Liu Jia laughed and teased him, "Yuan, on another date with your girlfriend? You’re back so late."

Li Yuan smiled, about to reply, when he saw a web novel displayed on Liu Jia’s computer screen.

He casually asked, "Liu Jia, you like ’Battle Starry Sky’ too?"

At the mention of the novel, Liu Jia’s eyes lit up. He grinned and excitedly recommended it to Li Yuan.

"Yuan, I discovered an absolute gem of a book these past few days, and this is it! ’Battle Starry Sky’ is so well-written! A broken engagement, face-slapping, the old grandpa in the ring, thirty years east, thirty years west... damn, it’s so thrilling to read..."
