Chapter 1361: Chapter 1360: Zhou Yanlin’s Troubles

Zhou Yanlin returned to school and made a call to his mother.

He told her that he had won the championship.

Bai Lan seemed to have expected the result and congratulated Zhou Yanlin with a laugh.

After hanging up the phone, the image of Shu Joy from earlier that day appeared in his mind, ethereal like a little fairy.

He smiled faintly, feeling a strange emotion fermenting in his heart.

He returned to his dormitory, where his roommates had already prepared food to celebrate for him.

Zhou Yanlin joined everyone in eating and drinking.

Over the weekend, Bai Lan called, asking if she should come pick him up to go back home, but Zhou Yanlin declined because the midterm exams were approaching soon, so he needed to stay at school to revise.

None of the other dormitory students went back home either.

Days passed, and Zhou Yanlin’s academic workload grew even more intense.

The midterm exams were getting closer and closer.

Essentially, besides attending classes, Zhou Yanlin’s life was a continuous loop between the library, cafeteria, and dormitory.

Everything was going quite well, except that Lu Xinxin’s appearances in front of him became more and more frequent.

Zhou Yanlin felt somewhat troubled.

Just like now, he was extremely hungry and had finally gotten his meal. As soon as he sat down to eat, Lu Xinxin came and sat down as well.

After greeting him, she directly took a seat in front of him.

In truth, Zhou Yanlin wanted to eat in peace and quiet, not with someone chattering nonstop in front of him like now.

“Yan Lin, it’s really nice for you guys. You can eat without worrying about getting fat. It’s not like us girls, who gain weight after eating just a little bit,” Lu Xinxin rambled on in front of him.

Zhou Yanlin couldn’t help but glance at her plate and indeed, there was only an egg and a few strips of greens.

He involuntarily frowned slightly; that little food wouldn’t be enough for even a small pigeon, would it?

Was she a pigeon-stomach?

After taking another look at Lu Xinxin, he realized he hadn’t paid much attention before, but now, he thought she really looked very thin, with delicate limbs.

He truly didn’t understand her way of thinking. How could she consider herself fat?

Could it be that all girls thought the same way?

Could Shu Joy feel that way too?

He gave it some thought and remembered that she was also tall and slim. Surely she didn’t eat only a little bit each meal, did she?

How could one get any nutrients like that? Over time, one would end up malnourished.

The more Zhou Yanlin thought about it, the more furrowed his brows became.

No, he definitely needed to find an opportunity to talk to her about it.

Seeing Zhou Yanlin’s expression, Lu Xinxin thought he was concerned about her and felt secretly thrilled.

This was so great, by frequently showing up in front of him, he would slowly get used to her presence.

Look, now he was paying attention to her. She had noticed that Zhou Yanlin glanced at her twice.

Lu Xinxin was overjoyed; the food she usually found unappetizing now seemed much tastier to her.

Zhou Yanlin simply said, “You’re not fat, you’re very thin.”

It was more of a reminder than anything–after all, they were classmates, and ruining one’s health would be a loss greater than any gain.

Lu Xinxin was taken aback and then said somewhat shyly, “It’s not good for girls to be fat.”

So in his eyes, she was really thin.

Zhou Yanlin didn’t say anything, but he thought that even if Shu Joy were a bit chubby, she would still be cute, wouldn’t she?

He didn’t say anything else and continued to eat his meal.

Lu Xinxin watched him eat, graceful in his movements. He was handsome, with clearly defined knuckles and neat, slender hands that held his chopsticks–truly, even watching him eat felt like a delight.
