Chapter 152: Bro, Your Hands Are So Warm
About five minutes after returning to the dormitory—
Long Ao Tian began dramatically blowing his hair, shirtless and all.
“Man, if only I had Old Ao’s physique, I wouldn’t have to worry about not having a girlfriend in this lifetime,” Xu Shuai sighed longingly.
And it wasn’t just him—Li Long Long and Huang Fei were thinking the same. Broad shoulders, narrow waist, muscles carved to perfection with flowing lines—just looking at them, even the girls couldn’t find fault. For us guys? Utterly flawless.
“Ah, truly, people are more annoying than ghosts,” Li Long Long lamented, then eyed Huang Fei. “Any updates on your ‘Top Ten Love Theories’?”
“Almost there, almost there! My theory’s gotta come from practice, you know—once I catch Shen Meng Jie, I’ll write the sequel right away,” Huang Fei said, looking a bit helpless.
He kept thinking—why does Long Ao Tian do nothing all day, yet girls keep flocking to him one after another? Meanwhile, he still hasn’t even exchanged words with Shen Meng Jie.
Long Ao Tian changed into his clothes and looked at the three of them. “Actually, Ai Fei’s right—all theories come from practice. Instead of just sitting in the dorm and theorizing, maybe try slowly interacting with girls.”
“Old Ao, you’re just good at talking,” Xu Shuai snapped, a hint of jealousy in his voice. “I’ve tried asking Wang Li Juan out, but—” he sighed heavily—”it’s impossible to get her to say yes.”
Long Ao Tian chuckled, tosses a towel at Xu Shuai. “Nonsense. You’ve only known Wang Li Juan half a month, not even that! Why should she agree to go out with you?”
“Even in love, it’s about taking it slow—small interactions, building mutual good feelings, then thinking about asking for dinner.”
“You’re just rushing to ask her out immediately! No wonder Wang Li Juan wouldn’t agree,” Xu Shuai grumbled.
Long Ao Tian looked amused. “Well, it’s true. Instead of lying around in the dorm, why not go out and try to meet girls?”
“Rule number two of the Top Ten Love Theories: Stay persistent—leave a solid impression in the goddess’s mind. Eat your meal bite by bite, walk step by step, and take it slow when chasing a girl!”
Three minutes later, three figures near Long Ao Tian started styling their hair.
…
“Bro.”
From afar, Lin Wan Ning was tiptoeing and waving with that cool, icy face of hers, smiling so radiantly it never gets old.
“Sorry I’m late.”
“I just got here too. Let’s go—time for dinner. You must be hungry,” she said with a sweet smile.
Everyone nearby was stunned—they had just witnessed a snow-capped peak of icy beauty blooming with happiness.
Before the boys arrived, she was cold, an unrivaled beauty.
But once they showed up? She was smiling like a kid
“Here we are,” Lin Wan Ning said, looking at her phone after getting out of the taxi.
“That’s so far,” Long Ao Tian said, staring.
Lin Wan Ning rolled her eyes. “Bro, you’re so lazy. Good food isn’t going to jump into your mouth just because it’s far.”
“And today’s got discounts, too!”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go.” Long Ao Tian, not wanting to ruin the mood, waved her along and stepped into the mall.
“Fourth floor,” Lin Wan Ning said as she glanced around.
At the restaurant entrance, she suddenly grabbed Long Ao Tian’s arm before he could step in. “Bro, I want some fruit tea. Can you buy me one?”
Long Ao Tian looked where she was pointing and nodded. “Okay.”
As Long Ao Tian turned to go, Lin Wan Ning silently slipped her arm around his.
Feeling her soft arm pressing against his, Long Ao Tian stiffened—instinctively wanting to pull away.
But as he moved, their arms brushed, and an electric shock seemed to run through her, spreading to parts she couldn’t quite describe.
Her heart fluttered wildly. Her delicate face blushed brighter, and she shot him a shy, coquettish look, her voice trembling a little: “Bro, don’t move… okay?”
“Uh, okay.” Long Ao Tian didn’t quite know what to do—seeing her soft, slightly deformed arm in his hand, he resisted the urge to do anything.
They walked inside together.
Suddenly, a faint chuckle, just loud enough for only the two of them to hear: “Bro, relax. You’re practically cornering her.”
“What do you mean, relax?” Long Ao Tian could feel how thin her clothes were—he could clearly feel her softness and the warmth emanating from her.
“Imagine I’m your girlfriend,” she whispered with that little red lip pressed together.
“Huh?”
Lin Wan Ning gently bit her lip and softly held Long Ao Tian’s finger, wrapping it around her waist.
Her warm hand, all heat through the thin fabric, pressed directly onto her tiny waist.
It was her first time having her waist held by a guy, and she felt a little awkward—her face flushing further as a blush spread to her neck, and she blurted out instinctively, “Bro, your hand’s so warm.”
Long Ao Tian’s palm trembled.
Feeling his hand shake, Lin Wan Ning shifted uncomfortably. “Bro, don’t move, it’s so itchy…”
They stiffly entered the restaurant and, guided by the server, took seat 18.
As the waiter left, Lin Wan Ning took a deep breath, her eyes flickering, a blush shining in her eyes, looking so enchanting it was hard to look away. Her beauty, like a blooming poppy, made her slightly teary, and she couldn’t help but say, “Okay, done.”
She then released Long Ao Tian’s arm, and her body, soft as it was, suddenly felt free—her heartbeat pounding even louder now.
“Why?” Long Ao Tian still didn’t understand why this was happening—confused, totally stunned—it was just too sudden.
Lin Wan Ning blushed fiercely and whispered shyly, “Because today, couples get half-price.”
Hearing this explanation, Long Ao Tian was both amused and helpless.
“Bro, stop laughing—I might get caught.”
For some reason, hearing Long Ao Tian laugh made her face heat up even more.
It was like her little secret had been found…
Already shy and slightly nervous, she quickly stood up. “I’ll go to the bathroom. Bro, can you grill some meat for me?”
