Chapter 231: 175. Size

"Let’s go, I’ll treat you to our school’s red bean double-skin milk, it tastes amazing!"

Under the sunlight, the girl with the brown hair turned her head, her smile radiant.

Both of them had nothing to do that afternoon and walked leisurely around the campus of Finance University, chatting and laughing for several hours.

"You see, there’s a story about this dormitory."

As they passed a dormitory in the central area, Zhou Sinin tugged at the sleeve of the man beside her, her expression meaningful.

"What’s the story?"

"This place often experiences supernatural vibrations!"

Zhou Sinin slowed down, cupping the double-skin milk in one hand and scooping up a small piece with a spoon to put in her mouth.

The first bite was a bit sweet, her eyes slightly narrowed in contentment, her gesture incredibly cute.

"Huh?"

"Yes! It was just a couple of years ago, I heard it from a senior. The dormitory would mysteriously vibrate, suddenly it felt like someone was shaking the chair, just this one!"

"That’s scary?"

"They say when the school hired a feng shui master to plan the campus back in the day, the master mentioned that this area is in the central zone, yet it has the most uneven terrain, so yin energy tends to gather here, leading to frequent accidents."

"Really? Then how did they handle it?"

Lu Jincheng asked, laughing.

"Listen to this! The school then excavated the east hill, creating Xiaonan Lake, which then became the area with the lowest elevation. Guess what happened next?"

As Zhou Sinin spoke, she pointed vaguely towards the direction of Xiaonan Lake, looking very much like a professional storyteller.

"What happened?"

Mr. Lu light-heartedly played along.

"Frequent drowning incidents at Xiaonan Lake! Everyone said it was because of the accumulated yin energy."

Zhou Sinin moved closer to him and whispered,

"Then you should stick with me more."

"Eh? Why?"

The girl lifted her head, her flawless skin gleaming brightly in the sunlight.

"I have strong positive energy, I can protect you and reduce the chances of you accidentally drowning."

"Hahahaha, I’m not a duck, I’m actually pretty good at swimming!"

Zhou Sinin giggled, her voice crisp and pleasant.

"It’s funny you mention that, one of our partners recently launched a new line of swimwear, just said they’d send a few pieces for the company’s staff to try."

"I saw the promotional pictures, they look quite good. What size do you wear?"

Lu Jincheng smoothly changed the topic.

"???"

Zhou Sinin eyed him suspiciously from head to toe.

"They are for your company colleagues, why are you asking me?"

"You’re sort of my colleague too, and I also like swimming. They call me a sleek swimmer. Let’s see who swims better at the pool someday."

Lu Jincheng said earnestly.

"Is that so? Then show me the pictures and I’ll let you know after I review them."

Zhou Sinin blinked her eyes and lifted her chin towards him.

"Hold on, let me find them."

Lu Jincheng didn’t really have any swimwear partners—he was just prolonging the conversation, making it up on the fly.

He just wanted to know Zhou Sinin’s size.

Of course, such a trivial matter couldn’t stump the quick-witted Mr. Lu.

He pulled out his phone, randomly searched for a swimsuit picture online within a minute, and casually showed the screen to Zhou Sinin.

"Here, what do you think? Pretty nice, right?"

"Wait, the swimwear your partner is sending... is it a bikini?"

"Yeah, it suits you well; not everyone can pull it off."

"Why does it suit me?"

"You might not follow overseas news, but this year, Italy legally declared that ugly women aren’t allowed to wear bikinis, only beautiful girls can."

"What? Bro, is that true?"

Zhou Sinin pursed her lips, half-believing.

She couldn’t tell if he was pulling her leg or being serious—it sounded like something out of a satirical news article, quite preposterous.

"Forget it, let’s leave this style for the colleagues, I suddenly feel a bit reluctant."

Lu Jincheng backtracked, pushing and pulling.

"Hmm?"

The girl’s eyes sparkled with curiosity.

"I’m not willing to let the people at the swimming pool see you wear this, so just tell me your size, and I’ll have them send over the most conservative style."

"Yo, Lu Jincheng, it’s rare to see you being so stingy."

Macho!

This guy is absolutely macho!

He had started fussing over her clothes before anything even happened!

Zhou Sinin’s eyes curved into a smile, successfully stirred emotionally by the man, and she cheerfully stated her size.

"I wear a medium."

"That’s not what I asked!"

Lu Jincheng waved his hand and shook his head.

"I meant your measurements..."

"...."

Zhou Sinin’s face flushed red, she glared at him, then tiptoed closer to his ear, breathing like a whisper.

She quietly said three numbers.

...

Being with Zhou Sinin was truly very joyful.

She seemed to always find the antidote to mundane life, immersing herself in the joy that came from within during everyday moments.

Whenever Lu Miancheng was with her, he was always reminded of the lyrics sung by Nicholas Tse in "Living Viva."

"Young enough to crisply snap like a wafer with anyone,

Merry enough that half a day felt like living a million years~"

This perfectly matched the mood he experienced when he was with her.

As the sun set in the west, the two of them walked around the playground, occasionally stepping on the grass, the breeze blowing through the girl’s brown hair, the air filled with a hint of sweetness.

"It’s so annoying, I might have to move out and live on my own soon."

Zhou Sinin pouted, her tone filled with helplessness.

"Why?"

"Isn’t it because of you!"

Zhou Sinin placed one hand on her waist and turned back to smile at him.

"Originally, I was living my university life just fine, and even starting a little coffee shop was okay, but now the whole department knows about it!"

"During class, our teachers always use me as an example, talking about success stories and how to write PPTs for financing..."

"Now living in the dorm isn’t peaceful either, it’s so annoying!"

Zhou Sinin shrugged her shoulders, her face full of reluctance.

Making money and becoming famous, it was inevitably a process of isolating oneself and gradually drifting away from one’s original circle.

The little princess had no incongruity living in the dorms, but as she became an entrepreneur, owning the basic power of life and death, able to provide resources and benefits to others.

Everything had become different.

Ten million in financing wasn’t just for fun.

The students at Finance University had a terrifyingly keen sense of smell; every now and then, someone would come to the finance department dorms inquiring about Zhou Sinin, seeing if there was any opportunity.

Be it for a job or other plans...

Zhou Sinin found it hard to live in the dormitory as quietly as before.

"So when do you plan to move out?"

"I haven’t decided yet; there are only two months left this semester, maybe next semester at the latest?"

"That’s fine, living out is quite convenient, no curfews at least."

Lu Jincheng smiled warmly.

"... Cut."

Zhou Sinin glared at him.

This guy, pure Sima Zhao’s heart.

"But I suggest, just suggesting."

"Hmm?"

Zhou Sinin looked up.

"You’d better live alone. It’s fine to hang out at your girlfriend’s place, but it’s not really appropriate for two people to live together long term."

Lu Jincheng quickly gave a precautionary warning.

"I know."

To his surprise, Zhou Sinin stuck out her tongue and smiled slyly.

What’s inappropriate about it?

She didn’t even ask?

"Of course, I have to consider you in such matters."
