My Girlfriend is the Cutest in the World

For Wednesday’s French class, Lu Yuanyuan arrived earlier than usual.

    That Monday, Yan Chuan sent out a group email, informing them that the exam had been moved from Wednesday to Friday.

    After a month of training by Yan Chuan—and after suffering several times—the students taking French as an elective were finally able to get used to checking their campus email regularly in order to not miss any important information that would cause them to have extra homework.

    Although they didn’t know why the class was pushed back, for the postponement of an exam of a subject they didn’t really know, this kind of good thing, many students replied to Yan Chuan expressing their joy and gratitude.

    It didn’t matter to Lu Yuanyuan what day they took the exam.

    What surprised her was that Su Lin actually didn’t come to class today.

    It had been a month since school started. In her mind, he was carrying the reputation that he had “slept through the final exam”. After asking the man himself on Sunday, she already knew that it was a rumor.

    Furthermore, this month, not only did he not skip class and was never late, he also always arrived ten minutes early, especially punctual.

    So this time, why was he…

    Lu Yuanyuan hesitated for a while.

    As the start of class approached, she somewhat couldn’t sit still.

    She finally took out her cell phone. Avoiding Yan Chuan’s line of sight, she hunched over and lowered her head to send a WeChat message to her deskmate that hadn’t showed up.

    When Su Lin received Lu Yuanyuan’s WeChat message, the music club meeting had already started ten minutes ago.

    The choir club was currently reporting their program arrangements. Su Lin listened while taking out his phone.

    [Deer OO]: Senior, you’re not going to class today?

    [Deer OO]: He started roll call OvO

    He looked at that expression and his lips unconsciously curled up.

    He used to think that this expression was particularly dumb.

    But Lu Yuanyuan seemed to especially like it.

    Moreover, looking at her message, he didn’t find it silly at all. Rather, he wanted to laugh seeing it.

    “…… President?” A female voice interrupted his thoughts.

    Su Lin looked up in response. Looking at the two girls across the table, the corners of his lips pursed into a line, “Mm, you guys go on. I’m listening.”

    Originally, the meeting wasn’t scheduled for today. However, they received a notice from the student council saying that the orientation party would be four days ahead of schedule, so the meeting had to be held earlier.

    After asking the members of the clubs that were performing, they compared their schedules, and the day that the majority of them were free was Wednesday. At this time of day, he was the only one who had class.

    As president, sometimes sacrifices had to be made.

    So the meeting was scheduled to be now.

    “Yeah, right,” the vice president sitting next to him narrowed his eyes. Saying in a volume that only the two of them could hear, “Like hell you’re listening.”

    “……” Su Lin’s forehead twitched.

    He glanced at Qin Fang and didn’t say anything. He quickly replied to Lu Yuanyuan and locked his phone before nodding to the two girls who had stopped, “Continue.”

    By the time the meeting was completely finished, an hour and a half had passed.

    It was also just about time for French to end.

    He looked at the program schedule written on a memo and made a final summary before announcing the meeting was adjourned.

    When he and Qin Fang returned to the dormitory, it was only about four o’clock. As soon as they entered the room, Second Eldest stood in the dormitory’s entryway and made a “shhh” gesture at them.

    Qin Fang mouthed at him: “What’s wrong?”

    “Broke up.” The second one pointed at Qin Fang’s top bunk.

    The oldest was facing the wall, lying with his back to them, covered with a quilt. They couldn’t tell whether he was asleep or not.

    The two nodded to show that they knew, about to lighten their steps to walk to the desks when the person lying on the top bunk rolled over and suddenly sat up.

    “Aiya, fuck!” Qin Fang, the most exaggerated, straightforwardly jumped really far to the side, “Boss, who are you trying to scare to death ah!”

    “……” The boss didn’t say anything, just looking at him with bitter eyes.

    “Aiyaa, these kinda eyes, I’m distressed,” Qin Fang began to say weird things. He climbed up at once to sit beside the boss on the upper bunk and patted his shoulder, “What’s going on ah. Spit it out, don’t hold back.”

    The boss looked like he was holding back a bellyful of anger. Without hesitating at all, he began to confide: “Xiao Mei, how could she do this? I just don’t have very much money, but I’m not poor ah. When I have money, do I not buy her good food? I have raised this cabbage for so long, why did she run away with other pigs1?!”

    They all knew this Xiao Mei. She had been ambiguous with the boss for the past month. During this period of time, the boss seemed to be rippling with spring every day. They even thought it’d be a done deal.

    Not expecting… it’d fall through.

    “………”

    The more the boss spoke, the more agitated he became. His northeastern accent came through in his ridiculing and aggrieved words. The dormitory wasn’t silent for too long. Qin Fang and Second Eldest brought out the “there are more fish in the sea2” argument to comfort him.

    Su Lin also arrived at his bedside, standing, looking up at the boss.

    Su Lin thought for a long time, but didn’t know what to say.

    A long while later, he said with difficulty: “…… I’ll buy you dinner.”

    “Thank you Brother Lin,” The boss looked touched beyond belief. No longer looking wronged, he immediately replied: “Want to eat at Gold and Jade Pavillion.”

    Su Lin: “………”

    After two days of adjustment, plus a gourmet, culinary baptism at Gold and Jade Pavilion where the price was exceedingly bank-breaking per person, the boss’s emotional injury was considered to be a thing of the past.

1 Chinese idiom where cabbage=girl, pig=another dude. Basically, girl he’s been taking care of has ditched him for another man ;’(

2 In Chinese, this is known as ‘there is more fragrant grass in the world’. Or something similar.

I saw some people leaving really long comments, and I wasn’t sure if it was in response to the ‘chapter for a review’ thing, but I want to reiterate that the reviews are for NU only. I will only count the reviews on there. For those who may have left reviews, just copy/paste it onto NU!

Also, I forgot what I called Su Lin’s roommates… sorry, it’s just been so long. I feel like I didn’t do pinyin (?)… so I just used one pinyin, one English.
