Chapter 134: You're Being Flirty
You're Being Flirty
At the request of the counselor,
everyone introduced themselves.
Afterward, the counselor gave a welcome speech about arriving at University T, along with the school rules and precautions for the upcoming military training.
"Damn, bros, I think I'm about to fall in love. Out of all the fish in the sea, I've finally found the one for me," Li Longlong said, his face tinged with shyness.
"Who? Which one?"
"Han Xiaojing," Li Longlong replied, his gaze drifting toward the third row to the right.
There sat a short-haired girl, her locks likely permed into soft waves, mostly tied back except for one strand tucked behind her ear.
With glasses perched on her nose, her fair, slightly chubby cheeks gave her an innocent, cute charm. She was undeniably pretty.
"I still think Shen Mengjie is better-looking," Huang Fei chuckled, covering his mouth as his eyes locked onto the slender figure sitting directly ahead.
Compared to Han Xiaojing, Shen Mengjie had a more graceful and balanced figure, her beauty leaning toward gentle elegance. If looks alone were the measure, she was probably the most attractive girl in the class.
"Damn, y'all really going for the hardest difficulty right off the bat?"
Times may change, but one thing remains constant—beautiful girls never lack suitors.
Though Xu Shuai often bragged about being chased by two girls before, he was well aware of his own shortcomings.
So, from the start, he set his sights on girls who weren’t as stunning but had pleasant personalities.
After the trio finished their evaluations, they turned to Long Aotian. "Hey, Aotian, any catches? With the help of us three Love Kings, it’ll be a piece of cake."
Long Aotian cleared his throat. "I’d advise against dating within the class—saves you from future awkwardness. Aim higher, like our upperclasswomen. Maturity beats inexperience any day."

"We’ll cross that bridge when we get there. Besides, the first rule of the Ten Core Principles of Dating is that you’ve gotta have thick skin."
Long Aotian listened, smiled, and said nothing.
"Honestly, Aotian, if it weren’t for you standing up for us yesterday, I’d think you weren’t even our age," Huang Fei remarked softly. "You always seem so restrained, like you’re overthinking everything."
"How do I put it? It’s like if we suddenly found 10,000 yuan on the street. We’d probably be planning a night of foot massages and splurging, but you? You’d be thinking about how to invest it or something..."
Huang Fei pondered before adding, "Yeah, I agree."
"Exactly! Especially last night when we were drinking. You never said it outright, but the way you looked at us showing off was like a dad watching his kids."
Huang Fei’s eyes widened. "Wait, are you trying to be our godfather or something?"
Long Aotian burst into laughter, more carefree than ever. "Nah, it’s not like that, I just—"
"I get it!" Huang Fei suddenly straightened up, realization dawning.
"What do you get?" Thanks for reading on ManaNovel!
Grinning, Huang Fei narrowed his eyes at Long Aotian. "You’re just insecure, aren’t you? Scared of getting rejected and embarrassed?"
The other two instantly caught on. "Dude, you don’t need to be like that. Sure, chasing a hottie is intimidating, but with your looks and build, you could easily land an average girl. Trust in us, the Three Love Kings!"
"We’ve got four years together in this dorm, and we’re not letting you give up on love. I’ve decided—while I pursue Shen Mengjie, I’ll help you snag a girlfriend too!"
Soon, the counselor dismissed the class.
Everyone filed out of the classroom, heading to the academic affairs office to collect their military training uniforms.
During this time, a minor incident occurred.
Xu Shuai fell in love.
The reason? While picking up his uniform, his pinky accidentally brushed against a female classmate’s.
Xu Shuai stared at his own finger. "You guys wouldn’t understand. That split-second touch sent an electric shock straight to my heart—tingly, numbing..."
His eyes closed, his expression lewd and dreamy, instantly drawing protests.
"Someone piss on him—no diabetics, though. Don’t give this guy even a drop of sweetness."
"You’re just jealous! Plain, shameless jealousy!"
Laughing and shoving each other, they dashed back to the dorm.
The moment they returned, Long Aotian’s phone buzzed.
A photo from Li Qingxue—her in military training gear, beaming radiantly.
"So? Pretty, right?"
Li Qingxue had a natural urge to share, always eager to showcase her best side. Her enthusiasm was infectious, effortlessly spreading joy.
She was also endlessly curious about everything new.
To Long Aotian, she felt like a bird—free, untamed, beautiful.
In the photo, her smile was bright and unrestrained, the slight upturn of her lips like spring sunlight spilling warmth over the world.
Li Longlong nudged Xu Shuai with his shoulder, gesturing toward Long Aotian.
Click!
The sound of a phone camera snapped.
Long Aotian looked up to find Li Longlong’s phone aimed at him.
Then, under Long Aotian’s baffled gaze, Li Longlong turned the screen toward him. "Aotian, check out your lovesick face! Hahaha..."
The photo showed Long Aotian staring at his phone, a smile on his lips—one he hadn’t even realized was there. Pure, unfiltered happiness.
"Shut up, you’re the lovesick one!" Long Aotian retorted before flopping onto his bed.
"Damn, Aotian, you’re even worse now."
Ignoring them, Long Aotian replied to Li Qingxue’s message.
Meanwhile, on the other end...
Reading Long Aotian’s reply, Li Qingxue’s smile deepened, her cheeks flushing pink.
"Qingxue, you—you’re grinning so hard! Who are you texting?"
"Yeah, your face is totally red!"
Li Qingxue hurriedly shielded her phone, biting her lip. "N-No, it’s not! I’m not blushing."
"Liar! It’s practically dripping!"
"Really?" She pressed her hands to her cheeks. "How about now?"
"Still obvious. You’re totally smitten."
"That obvious?" Turning her back to them, she mumbled, "Then... what about now?"
"Now you’re the worst of all! Qingxue, you’re doomed—you’ve fallen hard."
"Spill it! Who’s the guy? Is he in our class?"
"We’ve got plenty of cute guys here—it’s gotta be one of them. Confess, Qingxue!"
"I-I’m not smitten! I’m not... I’m going to find Yu Ying!" With that, she bolted toward the dorm.
