Chapter 272: The Signature Traits of a High-Quality Boy
Leaving school and hanging around near the subway entrance, Hu Yu Ying spotted Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning from afar.
Ever since Hu Yu Ying left in the morning, Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning had been strolling aimlessly around A University.
When they received Hu Yu Ying’s message, they agreed to meet at the subway exit—because nothing says “good plan” like waiting in close quarters for the entertainment to begin.
Seeing Hu Yu Ying approaching, Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning eagerly stepped forward, handing over their fruit teas while squinting and giving Hu Yu Ying the once-over like she was a rare Pokémon.
“Hey,” Li Qing Xue chuckled, “Are you dressed this pretty just to flirt with my brother?”
Hu Yu Ying blinked, suddenly enlightened: “No wonder you were so focused last night—just a little hiccup in the video, and you almost had a heart attack over me…”
Hu Yu Ying rolled her eyes, “Who’s more desperate—me or you?”
Talking about seducing Dragon Brother… well, Hu Yu Ying admitted she had those tiny little thoughts.
But if she said she was anxious over some video? Nope, never gonna confess that.
“Honestly, I don’t know how your waist can be this delicate,” Lin Wan Ning sighed, eyeing Hu Yu Ying’s tiny waist with envy.
Especially contrasted against the black outfit, her form was like a perfect curve sculpture.
Back when Hu Yu Ying’s clothes were loose, you couldn’t really tell how fit she was. But ever since Long Ao Tian started dressing her, her figure just exploded into awe—tiny waist, deadly allure.
Forget guys—sometimes even they can’t resist poking and playing with it.
“Preemptive strike,” Hu Yu Ying grinned and snatched Lin Wan Ning’s long leg first.
After hanging out so long, Li Qing Xue was just playing it cool—code for secretly freaking out. She’d talk tough, but when it got real? She’d blush and get shy.
Lin Wan Ning, on the other hand, was pure trouble—every time, she managed to turn the game around and make herself and Li Qing Xue blush beet red.
She was just too good at this…
After a playful tussle, the tiny trio finally stepped into the subway station.
“So, where to now?” Hu Yu Ying whispered.
“To the inner road beside our school,” Lin Wan Ning and Li Qing Xue had planned that. Hu Yu Ying had no objections—maybe, just maybe, she’d get to see Dragon Brother.
“Hu Yu Ying, you’re really turning into quite the flirt now—look at that mischievous smile!”
“Not at all,” Hu Yu Ying said, tilting her head. “If you say I’m naughty, I’ll just tickle you to d*ath.”
They arrived at the inner road of the Music Academy.
Tall trees lined both sides, leaves swirling—perfect for a romantic autumn scene, or that’s what they wanted you to think.
“This place is gorgeous,” Hu Yu Ying and Li Qing Xue looked up softly as leaves drifted down.
“Yeah,” Lin Wan Ning chuckled. “This was actually where I and my brother first met.”
“That’s my school over there, and that’s my brother’s. Want to come take a walk?” she offered.
“Sure,” Hu Yu Ying and Li Qing Xue nodded happily—because teenage vibes like this? Infectiously delightful.
“So, should we start with the Music Academy, or the one my brother’s in?” Lin Wan Ning teased.
“Why do I have to be the one to decide?” Hu Yu Ying already saw through their game. She knew it was trouble. Playful trouble.
If she said “Let’s visit my brother first,” she could imagine what teasing awaited her on the way—probably endless jokes about her.
“Fine, I say we hit the Music Academy first,” Hu Yu Ying declared, immune.
“Really?” Lin Wan Ning grinned slyly, no longer the cool and aloof vibe she usually carried.
“Are you 100% sure?” Li Qing Xue added with a bright smile, pretending to be skeptical.
Lin Wan Ning even glanced at her watch: “If I remember correctly, my brother has a cultural class in the morning and a specialized class this afternoon. He might even be on the track field right now…”
“Well, you’d better think carefully about this…” she teased.
Watching their childlike antics, Hu Yu Ying bit her lips, “Maybe we should just go see Dragon Brother first?”
Both Li Qing Xue and Lin Wan Ning burst into simultaneous laughter.
Laughing at being the joke targets, Hu Yu Ying raised her hands to grab them.
But they were already on high alert, turning away swiftly, escaping her grasp.
Though she knew she was being tricked… she was completely fine with it.
She involuntarily flicked her hair, but remembered—her hairstyle today was gel-fixed, won’t move an inch.
She sighed helplessly, looked at a single rose in her hand, pressed her nose to it, and sniffed deeply—then closed her eyes, lost in the scent.
Ye Liang Chen nodded contentedly, clutching the rose, walking toward their agreed destination.
“Meng Jie.”
Seeing that alluring, graceful back, Ye Liang Chen instinctively flicked his hair again and softly called out in his pure, bubbly voice.
Hearing his voice, Shen Meng Jie frowned, her fists clenched.
Taking a deep breath to suppress her irritation, she turned to look at him—but the moment she saw his face, she completely broke—she snorted and couldn’t hold back a laugh.
“Ha ha ha…”
He sports that oily, slicked-back hairstyle, meticulously groomed, with a super prominent middle part.
“What kind of hairstyle is that?” Shen Meng Jie giggled, bending over from laughter.
Ye Liang Chen held his rose, shrugged helplessly, and said, “This is a fashionable hairstyle—an indicator of high-quality masculinity.”
This hairstyle would only get more popular in the coming years—some celebrities would even wear it on the red carpet.
Hey, can you imagine how trendy it looked?
Meanwhile, Shen Meng Jie led Ye Liang Chen forward, eyeing him closely—she needed to dig deep into what kind of conspiracy he had against Long Ao Tian.
She didn’t want to owe favors, especially if she had to remind Long Ao Tian later.
As they walked ahead—
Ye Liang Chen suddenly frowned, pausing as he stared at a distant figure’s back.
Shen Meng Jie followed his gaze and was puzzled: “Do you know him?”
Ye Liang Chen nodded, “Xue Shao Hua?”
When Xue Shao Hua heard his name called, he spun around sharply. There, sure enough, was Ye Liang Chen with his greasy hairstyle and holding a rose.
It was Xue Shao Hua. Ye Liang Chen stepped closer. “What are you doing here?”
Xue Shao Hua couldn’t very well tell Ye Liang Chen he was eavesdropping on Long Ao Tian and Hu Yu Ying’s personal matters, so he asked instead, “And what about you? What are you doing here?”
Hearing this!
Ye Liang Chen smirked confidently, flicked his hair, and said, “That girl caught my eye—just here for a little flirtation.”
Following his gaze, Xue Shao Hua’s eyes brightened.
The alluring, sexy lady vibe hit him right in the soul.
Seeing Xue Shao Hua staring like that, Shen Meng Jie frowned slightly—she judged him as just another guy under Ye Liang Chen’s spell.
Xue Shao Hua looked stunned, and Ye Liang Chen’s lips curled into a confident smile. He waved in front of him: “Still my turn—I want to know what you’re doing here.”
Snapping back to attention, Xue Shao Hua raised his head and motioned ahead…
【Sweethearts, I need some likes and support… Love y’all!】
