3: Chapter 3: The True Colors of a Freeloader, Stunning the Senior Students

Watching Shen Muyan's cold demeanor, Zhou Ziyu couldn't hold back anymore. It had been a year, and she had always been like this.

It was only because Shen Muyan had a good temper that she didn't scold him to his face.

She had clearly rejected him many times in private, but her god-tier beauty made it worth continuing to try.

However, this didn't stop Zhou Ziyu from dating other girlfriends!

He would date a new girlfriend every few days, but in his eyes, they were far inferior to Shen Muyan.

"Shen Muyan, don't be like this! I broke up with Zhang Ting, don't be angry with me."

"I... C...", Shen Muyan almost cursed when she heard this: "Whether you date Zhang Ting or not, what does that have to do with me? I... I'm not angry with you, it's just... we aren't even friends! I don't even want to know you, okay?"

Her voice wasn't loud; she didn't want to attract attention.

But with the school's number one goddess standing there, how could passing students not take a few extra looks! The X7 nearby had absolutely no appeal.

Who knew which parent had driven over to drop off a student.

But Tang Luochuan cared. The goddess wasn't his, but the car was!

Just then, he suddenly ran out again: "Senior Sister! Uh..."

He glanced at Zhou Ziyu, who stood to the side with a livid expression, and his gaze fell back onto Shen Muyan: "Sorry, Senior Sister."

Shen Muyan gave a sweet smile directly: "What's wrong?"

She didn't even know why herself; she usually wouldn't treat a guy she just met with this kind of expression.

"The school food requires a meal card, and I... I don't think I got one!"

He had been too busy buying a car and hadn't gotten a meal card or anything. In the cafeteria, only a few special windows accepted QR code payments, and they were all things he didn't like to eat.

"Oh, the cafeteria office... they've probably closed by this time! You'll have to go tomorrow morning!"

Shen Muyan took out her meal card: "Let's go, I'll treat you."

"Huh?", Tang Luochuan felt a bit embarrassed: "That wouldn't be good, maybe I should... find a classmate? Oh no, I don't even know any classmates!"

He had enrolled today, was the first to go to the Dormitory, and the first to arrive at the classroom door to take a look.

He hadn't seen a single classmate; everyone else was busy getting to know each other in the afternoon. Yet he had gone out to buy a car instead.

"Oh! It's fine, little handsome guy, we'll treat you!", Shen Muyan's female classmate said at the top of her lungs, as if afraid Zhou Ziyu wouldn't hear.

However, Zhou Ziyu kept a faint smile on his face: "No need for such trouble, I'll treat the junior."

"Heh, hello Senior," Tang Luochuan finally looked at Zhou Ziyu properly. He felt very uncomfortable with the guy's fake smile.

He continued: "Since Senior Shen is treating me, I won't trouble you! I want Senior Shen to treat me, I'm close with her..."

The smile on Zhou Ziyu's face instantly froze, as if someone had splashed a cup of ice water in his face; he even forgot how to pull back the corners of his mouth.

"Close?" He chewed on this word repeatedly in his heart. This kid just arrived, right? How could they be close?

Shen Muyan wasn't the type of girl who could be easily picked up.

This woman did keep a cheerful and perfectly measured distance when dealing with strangers. It was easy for people to misunderstand; mainly because guys often overthink when facing such warmth from this type of girl.

Shen Muyan didn't think that much; she just felt that the junior in front of her was straightforward in his speech, which was inexplicably a bit cute.

She shook the meal card in her hand: "Let's go, if we dawdle any longer, all the good food in the cafeteria will be snatched up."

"Alright then!", Tang Luochuan waved at Zhou Ziyu, "Goodbye, Senior!"

That tone and manner were just like saying goodbye to the elderly security guard.

Zhou Ziyu gripped the bag of snacks, his gaze locked onto Tang Luochuan, a trace of resentment in his heart.

Only a trace, though. He had seen too many boys like this. Want to chase Shen Muyan?? It would depend on individual ability.

In the cafeteria, Shen Muyan somewhat regretted offering to treat him to a meal.

Because this kid ordered things that were really too expensive—he ordered whatever was expensive! And he ordered a whole bunch, totaling 260 yuan.

It was a table full of food. Are all children from wealthy families like this?

"Junior, can you finish all that??" a girl asked.

Tang Luochuan motioned for everyone to sit down: "I'm treating you all. I'll transfer the money to Senior Shen later! This meal is on me..."

After he said this, everyone was stunned.

Shen Muyan said softly: "No..."

She wanted to refuse, but it was over 200 yuan, and her monthly living expenses were only about 2000. She had to save a bit to buy clothes or go shopping when she had time.

"Uh... then... okay!", Shen Muyan silently opened her phone, her expression very unnatural.

"I'll add you!", Tang Luochuan took out his newly bought tri-fold phone and opened WeChat.

"Holy cow! A tri-fold, little brother? Your family must be well-off," a girl on the side teased.

Tang Luochuan didn't pay attention; he had already taken a bite of a steamed bun, his other hand still gripping the chopsticks: "Uh, it's alright."

After they added each other on WeChat, Tang Luochuan directly transferred 300 over.

"That's dozens of yuan too much!"

"It's fine, just take it! Consider it my thanks to you."

Tang Luochuan didn't look at Shen Muyan either, just buried his head in his food.

It had been a whole day. He'd taken a ride from his hometown, eaten something casual at noon, and spent the afternoon going many places to buy a car, clothes, shoes, and a phone. The kid was hungry!!

"So good!", Tang Luochuan stuffed his face and urged everyone: "Senior Sisters, don't be polite."

A senior sister frowned, looked at Shen Muyan, and shook her head.

She had wanted to tease him several times, wondering if he had taken a liking to Shen Muyan. But this guy's attitude didn't seem fake at all. He looked genuinely hungry, and it was true that he didn't have a meal card...

Generally speaking, if you invite Shen Muyan to a meal to try and chase her, you have to say some nice things. Communicate and build a connection. Even if you don't chew slowly, at least pretend to be a bit of a gentleman.

But Tang Luochuan had already finished one steamed bun and was now picking up another portion of rice, shoveling it in vigorously. He couldn't be bothered to talk at all. At most, he'd say: "Damn, so good!"

Finally, after eating and drinking his fill, they sat for a moment. Tang Luochuan wiped his mouth and spoke up: "Senior Sister!"

The senior sister immediately signaled Shen Muyan: "Here it comes! He's going to hit on you!"

Shen Muyan was also slightly nervous inside, fearing the other party would just come out and say, "Can you be my girlfriend?"

Being too direct was unacceptable to her, but the guy in front of her did indeed pique her interest.

"What?"

"Is there any way to avoid participating in Military Training?"

"Huh?", Shen Muyan felt like there was something wrong with her ears; why would he ask that?

"Hahaha!", the girl on the side couldn't help but laugh.

Shen Muyan thought for a moment and blinked: "You don't want to do Military Training?"

"Yeah! It's too tiring, I can't handle even a bit of hardship."

He was currently worrying about how to spend money crazily; Military Training would take at least 7 days, or up to 14 days if it were long. Who could stand that?
