Chapter 23: Old Chen Broke Up!
After completing these operations on his phone, Chen Yuan took Cu to familiarize her with the many appliances in the house.
“Here’s the washing machine, for washing clothes and pants…”
“This is the TV, where you can watch some drama performances…”
“This is the air conditioner…”
“Teacher, I’m not an idiot…” Facing Chen Yuan’s patient introduction of these things, Cu interrupted.
Chen Yuan: “…”
She has basic common sense; after all, she is a human and had done most of her homework before coming to this world. Of course, she knows what these appliances are used for…
It’s just that experiencing it firsthand still feels magical, which is only natural.
Practice is the only standard for testing things.
Chen Yuan felt a bit sorry for treating her like a clueless fairy…
He then directly taught her how to use these things.
Naturally, he didn’t expect her to learn everything in one go; these things could be learned slowly.
For day-to-day items, as long as you experiment a few times when needed, you can quickly get the hang of it.
Take her phone for example; just a little while ago, she learned how to take pictures, right?
She learns very quickly.
…
Unknowingly, time flew by during the teaching session.
Soon, it was evening.
Time to eat again…
Isn’t life all about eating?
But before that, Chen Yuan suddenly felt he needed to think of a reasonable excuse to bring Cu home…
Although he told his mom he would be back early, she definitely wouldn’t think he would bring Cu back with him, right?
Which good girl stays out all night every day, living with a guy at his place?
Even if his parents quite like her, they can’t help but wonder what’s going on with this girl.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Yuan couldn’t come up with a reasonable excuse.
Cu definitely wouldn’t want to stay here alone.
Not to mention her willingness; he himself wouldn’t feel at ease.
Aren’t there enough news about normal people getting into trouble living alone at home…?
Moreover, Cu isn’t considered a normal person right now; what if she accidentally gets electrocuted or something?
So he could only say this: he would tell his mom that he wouldn’t be going back, and anyway, he had class tomorrow.
As for the stuff… he could only drive his own car home; he didn’t really lack anything else.
So he called his mom.
Chen Mother: “Not coming back?!”
“Yeah, since I have class tomorrow, I’m too lazy to make this trip,” Chen Yuan replied, making an excuse.
“With that girl?”
Chen Yuan: “…”
Great, his mom was more concerned about whether he was with her than if he was coming back…
Definitely his real mom…
“What about your car?”
“I’ll just drive it back another day, or you guys can come over some day.”
But as soon as he said it, he realized it was wrong; if his parents came over, wouldn’t they find out he was living with Cu?!
He definitely couldn’t let that happen!!
“Sunshine coming out from the west, and you still want us to come over.” Chen Mother thought Chen Yuan was joking.
“Hehe… if you guys want to come over, I can go pick you up.”
“Alright, be careful, take care of your health, and eat less takeout,” Chen Mother nagged, “Take her to eat something good.”
“Yeah…” Chen Yuan replied helplessly.
His mom…
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yuan turned around and caught Cu secretly taking pictures of him again with her phone.
Seeing him turn around, she quickly put her phone down.
To this, Chen Yuan only felt it was her fresh curiosity about this world and tenderly asked, “What do you want to eat tonight?”
…
Jiang University of Science is located in the Anyang area of Jiangnan province, surrounded by mountains and with beautiful flowing water; it may not be as bustling as the city center, but the scenery is lovely.
Bored college students love to hike mountains, climb to high places, and challenge themselves.
The closest mountain to the school is called Peng Mountain, which has an unnamed small temple on it. Every time finals week approaches, the temple suddenly becomes lively.
At times like this, the little Bodhisattva in the temple would reflect: “Young man, are you praying to me or to your own desires?”
“Bodhisattva bless me, so I definitely don’t fail any courses this semester… if I fail again, I’m done for!” A slightly shorter and a bit chubby boy earnestly wished.
He was already a junior, and continuing to fail courses posed a risk of not getting his diploma!
“It’s not Tan, which good person starts praying for finals right when the semester begins…” one of the boys behind him quipped with a smirk.
“Unbelievable…”
“Since we’re here, I might as well make a wish too.” Another boy, who wasn’t very tall but quite good-looking, clasped his hands and sincerely prayed.
“Bless me to grow some leg hair this year…”
“Look at you two, what kind of ambitions do you have…”
The tallest and strongest boy teased, then stepped forward, “Bodhisattva bless me to make a fortune, not asking for too much, just a small goal will do.”
“By the way, find a girlfriend too; she doesn’t have to be too pretty, just school flower level will do.”
“……”
“Three offerings!”
Liu Yuhui took out his phone and snapped a picture of the three of them, then sent it to their shared dorm room group chat.
250 is their dorm number.
Very fitting.
These few people are Chen Yuan’s college roommates. Although Chen Yuan moved out to live on his own since sophomore year, they are all in the same class, taking classes together. Plus, after a strong bond formed during their freshman year, their friendship is still very deep.
After making his wish, Tan Haoxin stood up: “I’m here to repay my debt! I passed my courses last semester thanks to the Bodhisattva’s blessing!”
“You didn’t fail because of my help, did you? And you want to attribute it to the Bodhisattva?!” said the tallest boy, named Huang Zhisheng.
He always speaks slowly; his words may sound rough, but the way he says them is quite calm, and since he has a deep voice, it sounds silly and non-threatening.
Last semester, Tan Haoxin barely passed only because he constantly asked for prompts sitting behind him…
“Then I’ll pray to my grandpa too; please give me a hand this semester!” Tan Haoxin immediately turned around to bow.
For a roommate like Huang Zhisheng, who can assure him that he won’t fail both in grades and making jokes, he wouldn’t hold back on praise.
This grandpa truly deserved it!
“Go away, you smelly idiot.” Huang Zhisheng quickly stepped aside.
“Grandpa, don’t run! Let me pray one more time.”
“Enough, enough, something big has happened!”
At that moment, Liu Yuhui, who had just taken a picture with his phone, suddenly waved to the others.
“What’s up? The cafeteria closed down?”
“What? Li Hua is cross-dressing?!”
On the other side, Luo Zichuan, already exhausted, propped himself up from the stone bench.
Li Hua (the short boy): “Shut up!”
Jiang University of Science has six people in the dorm; plus Chen Yuan, there are exactly six people.
“Kawaii~”
Li Hua frowned tightly: “Get lost, get lost, you stupid Nantong!”
And the more he said that, the more some perverse individuals became excited.
So nice, let him curse a little more…
Li Hua: “……”
Because he is relatively slim, has a fair complexion, and a small face with no leg hair, wearing shorts in the dorm, his straight legs look more attractive than most girls’…
Maybe this is what they call an innate male fairy body.
And of course, the other guys in the dorm wouldn’t let such a beauty go to waste; they bought him several sets of women’s clothing and then figured out ways to make him wear them.
Once he wore them, the friendship changed for the worse…
Since then, Luo Zichuan’s tone toward him had always been like this; he was genuinely a bit afraid that one day he would wake up to find Luo Zichuan lying next to him saying, “Oh, hi, darling…”
I’ll hit your mom $%#…
Indeed, it’s clear that Luo Zichuan is a seasoned otaku.
Not to mention the stereotype of a couch potato, this guy talks in a way that is a bit perverted…
He could laugh at Li Hua’s insults and even encouraged him to curse more…
“What’s up? What big thing happened?” The only relatively normal one is Huang Zhisheng, who walked over slowly and said.
“Old Chen broke up!”
