Chapter 198: Chapter 123 What It Feels Like for a Pretty Female Top Student to Have a Contrast (Good Looking!)_2

Gao Jun asked, "Which dishes are tastier? You choose one for me."

Ye Xiaowei looked at the menu and then said, "This rice dish is pretty good."

"Okay, then I’ll have that one. What about you?"

Ye Xiaowei looked and finally answered, "I’ll have this one."

"Okay."

Gao Jun stood up and walked to the counter to order.

"One of these, one of these."

"Alright, please wait a moment."

Gao Jun then came back and wiped the table with a napkin.

Ye Xiaowei watched him order and wipe the table, and she too felt like doing something.

First, she picked up some chopsticks, but then felt it wasn’t quite right and put them back into the holder.

Gao Jun saw her bustling about nervously while actually doing nothing, so he couldn’t help but laugh, teasing, "Just sit there quietly."

Upon hearing Gao Jun say that, Ye Xiaowei immediately put down the chopsticks.

A brief silence fell between the two.

Ye Xiaowei then somewhat regretted not having brought Zhou Meiling along.

With her there, there definitely wouldn’t have been any awkward pauses.

Unexpectedly, just then, Gao Jun asked, "What major are you studying?"

Ye Xiaowei snapped back to reality and quickly explained, "I’m in the literature department..."

"That’s great," Gao Jun praised, "I really admire students in the literature department. You must read a lot of books."

"It’s okay," Ye Xiaowei replied, "not too many. I’ve already started on the professional books for my sophomore year."

"Aren’t you a freshman?" Gao Jun was a bit surprised.

"I... started reading them early," Ye Xiaowei blushed.

Gao Jun hadn’t expected the girl in front of him to be such a scholar.

Pretty, graceful, good figure, a scholar, her life’s buffs are completely stacked.

And if there’s also a contrasting side...

Gao Jun felt he couldn’t think further, after all, this was someone else’s young lady.

He then asked, "So your literary foundation must be quite solid."

"It’s okay..."

"Let’s play a game," Gao Jun suggested, seeing that the food wasn’t going to be served anytime soon, he decided to flirt a bit with this girl.

Ye Xiaowei was a bit curious, "What game?"

"Have you ever played ’The Floating Flowers’?" Gao Jun asked.

Ye Xiaowei nodded, "I’ve seen it on shows."

"Then let’s play it, shall we?"

Ye Xiaowei thought it sounded fun and agreed, "Okay."

As a guy, Gao Jun let Ye Xiaowei name the keyword for ’The Floating Flowers.’"

Ye Xiaowei didn’t know what to say and murmured, "I don’t know what to say..."

"Which season do you prefer, spring, summer, autumn, or winter?" Gao Jun suddenly asked.

Ye Xiaowei thought for a moment and answered, "Winter."

"Then let’s take ’snow’ as the keyword for the Poetry game, is that okay?"

"Sure."

Gao Jun started, "I’ll go first: a lone boat, an old man in a straw raincoat, fishing alone in the snowy, cold river."

Ye Xiaowei immediately thought of "Qin Yuan Chun - Snow" and answered, "The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles icebound, ten thousand miles of drifting snow."

"Impressive, without even thinking!" Gao Jun first praised, then added, "The north wind sweeps the ground, the white grass bends, in August, the barbarian sky brings flying snow."

"By the gate, hearing a dog bark, a man returns on a snowy night."

"After the chaos, the hollows are pierced, the surging waves hit the shore, rolling up a thousand heaps of snow."

"The disgrace of Jingkang, not yet avenged, the resentment of the ministers, when will it be quenched."

...

The two of them chatted back and forth.

The awkward atmosphere from when they had first met gradually faded away.

Ye Xiaowei hadn’t expected Gao Jun’s literary knowledge to be so rich.

But in the end, it finished with Gao Jun unable to come up with more.

He laughed and said, "I’m still not good enough, I can’t think of any more."

Ye Xiaowei quickly explained, "You’re already very impressive, to remember so much poetry after all these years since graduation."

"I noticed that when you recite poetry, you’re really confident, completely different from how you usually are," Gao Jun praised.

Ye Xiaowei immediately blushed, "Maybe... maybe that’s the only time when I have some merits."

"How could that be?" Gao Jun countered, "You volunteer at the nursing home, which already sets you apart from most college students, and besides, you’re beautiful and attractive, aren’t these merits?"

Ye Xiaowei hadn’t expected Gao Jun to compliment her directly, and her face grew even more flushed.

Just then, two girls walked in.

They glanced around and then fixed their gaze on Ye Xiaowei.

Surprised, they exclaimed, "Weiwei, you look so pretty today."

Ye Xiaowei looked up and immediately felt embarrassed.

She had run into classmates from the next class.

She could only greet them awkwardly, "Jun, Lanlan, hi~"

The short-haired girl Jun looked at Ye Xiaowei’s outfit, then glanced at Gao Jun sitting opposite her, noticing that he was quite handsome, and immediately gossiped, "Weiwei, is this your boyfriend? He’s really handsome."

The other long-haired girl Lanlan also looked over, and what she saw made her heart skip a beat: "Wow, Weiwei, your boyfriend is so handsome."

Ye Xiaowei quickly waved her hands, "No, not... "

Seeing her anxious, blushing face, Gao Jun also smiled, "Hello there, I’m not Weiwei’s boyfriend, please don’t misunderstand."

Hearing this, both girls became even more curious.

"You look like you’re a bit older than us, right? Weiwei, is this your brother?" the long-haired girl Lanlan asked actively, waving and greeting Gao Jun, "Hello, I am Weiwei’s classmate, my name is Zhang Zilan."

"Zilan, hello," Gao Jun smiled, "I’m Gao Jun, a friend of Weiwei’s, just here today to have a meal with her."

"I see."

Jun then suggested to Ye Xiaowei, "Weiwei, why don’t we sit together? It’ll be more lively."

Lanlan also nodded, "Yeah."

Although Ye Xiaowei felt somewhat embarrassed, she didn’t know how to refuse, and finally, she only nodded, "Sure."
