Moreover, this was all happening without us having met in person. I glanced at the time; it had been six days since we last saw each other. Just as I was thinking about this, a message from Chen Qian came in.
Chen Qian: I'm going to sleep now, good night.
Me: Good night.
I put down my phone and looked out at the branches outside, suddenly feeling very good. I thought to myself that perhaps our story was just beginning.
...
In the evening, Li Yuanyuan resolutely decided to attend the Volunteer Association's dinner to boost the members' enthusiasm. She dragged me along, claiming it would help me meet interesting people.
"Interesting people?"
I was wearing a beige knee-length floral dress and smiled appropriately, "They are indeed quite interesting."
The dinner was held at a grilled fish restaurant in the university town, and many people showed up, creating a lively atmosphere. Yuanyuan pulled me to sit on the right side of a redwood long table. Just as we sat down, someone next to me suddenly greeted me.
"Hello, we meet again."
I turned my head and saw a familiar face—Ma Yiming. He was dressed in casual sportswear today, flashing a bright smile that revealed a row of white teeth, looking very cheerful.
"Ma Yiming?"
I exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm part of the Volunteer Association, so of course I'm here," Ma Yiming replied. Suddenly, he waved behind me, "Cui Lidong, over here."
I turned around and saw Cui Lidong. He was wearing a white shirt and black trousers today, with his collar slightly open, revealing his delicate collarbone.
His gaze fell on me, paused for a moment, and then shifted away.
He walked over to us, and Ma Yiming immediately introduced, "Cui Lidong, this is Chen Qian, the junior Sister I told you about from the French Department."
"We've met."
Cui Lidong said in a neutral tone as he sat down beside me.
Ma Yiming was taken aback for a moment but quickly reacted, flashing a grin at me, "So you two know each other. I won't interrupt you then."
As he spoke, he was about to leave when I hurriedly said, "We've just met a few times by chance; we're not familiar."
"Oh?"
Ma Yiming's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he quickly said, "Then you should take this opportunity to chat."
"..."
I wanted to say it wasn't necessary, but he had already walked away.
I could only maintain a polite smile and stay seated.
The gathering soon began, with everyone chatting about various topics, creating a lively atmosphere.
I didn't say much; I quietly ate while listening to everyone talk.
During this time, a few first-year students suggested playing rock-paper-scissors, and everyone eagerly joined in.
Cui Lidong was also pulled into the game by several first-year students; he had great drinking capacity and won several rounds in a row.
The younger students looked at him with admiration: "As expected of a senior, impressive!"
"Of course, Senior Cui is famous for being able to drink endlessly at our school."
"Wow, then we definitely have to drink with the senior more today."
Cui Lidong listened quietly without saying much.
I watched him handle the younger junior Sister s effortlessly and found myself lost in thought.
At that moment, Cui Lidong suddenly looked up at me; our eyes met, and my heart skipped a beat as I instinctively looked away.
The next second, Cui Lidong's voice rang out above me.
" junior Sister, do you want to play a round?"
I was taken aback. Was he challenging me?
Before I could respond, Cui Lidong's voice rang out again: "If Junior Sister wins against me, I'll drink. If I win... then you have to give me your WeChat."
I was speechless.
I looked at him; his eyes were smiling, a stark contrast to his usual aloof demeanor. At that moment, he seemed a bit irreverent.
"What's wrong, Junior Sister? Are you scared?"
"No."
I shook my head and was about to speak when Yuanyuan suddenly interjected, "Chen Qian, you should accept the challenge."
"..."
I had no choice but to nod. "Alright."
Then, a crowd began to cheer again.
"Go, Senior!"
"Go, Senior Sister!"
"..."
Cui Lidong and I played three rounds, and unfortunately, I lost all of them.
Resigned, I handed over my WeChat to Cui Lidong. He added me, and I accepted his friend request.
Everything seemed to be heading down a wonderfully strange path.
