    Chapter 1.2: Let’s Talk about Marriage

      “However, there is actually no use hitting on him.” His face wore a look of solemn devotion. “The love of our Hehe’s life is his studies.”

      Second Bro also nodded his head. “Hehe has no desire to fall in love and only wants to study. Previously, our senior held her wedding ceremony in the school auditorium, and Hehe caught the bridal bouquet. At that time, didn’t everyone say that this bridal bouquet would not be able to pass onto the next person any time soon? Since Hehe is busy with his studies, he would not be marrying early.”

      Initially, they were just making an inappropriate joke, but the moment he heard the term ‘wedding’, Lin Yuhe’s face stiffened as his smile faded.

      While they were joking, the last member of the dorm, Shen Huixi, returned. His gaze swept over the paper bag on the table and questioned doubtfully, “Didn’t the three of you say that you were not going to head out after class? Who bought Starbucks?”

      Lin Yuhe answered, “The junior, who borrowed an umbrella at the library the other time, gave it.”

      Zhen Ling and Second Bro did not have the habit of drinking coffee, so Lin Yuhe pushed the paper bag to Shen Huixi and asked, “Do you want to drink?”

      “Sure, thanks.”

      Shen Huixi knew that Lin Yuhe did not like bitter stuff, so he took the bag without a second thought.

      Shen Huixi was rendered speechless by their imagination. He stretched out his hand and showed them the flattened paper slip that had obvious creases, revealing the words on the front: Senior Lin.

      Linking it with the previous words, the sentence written on the paper slip was ‘Senior Lin, I like you.’ 

      Shen Huixi pointed at the coffee and mouthed, It fell from the cup holder.

      Obviously, this was the handwriting of that junior from earlier.

      Apparently, this was not the ‘my roommate fell in love with another roommate’ drama that Zhen Ling and Second Bro had imagined.

      Shen Huixi placed the slip of paper on the table and pushed it forward with his long finger, hinting at Lin Yuhe.

      Yet, Lin Yuhe knitted his brows slightly and shook his head.

      He did not accept her.

      Shen Huixi thought Lin Yuhe was annoyed. In any case, this sort of thing had occurred so many times that he was already used to it. So, he did not try to pass the paper slip to him again and placed it back in the paper bag.

      By the time the lessons had ended, it was already evening. Shen Huixi stood up and stretched his body after sitting for so long, and asked, “Let’s go and have dinner. Are we still going to the library at night?”

      The midterm was near at hand, and they were already used to immersing themselves in the library, but it was rare for Lin Yuhe to decline today.

      “Not today. My relatives will be coming over, so I have to go and have dinner with them.”

      After separating from his roommates, Lin Yuhe returned to the dorm to change his outer coat and headed out. He wore a long woolen coat, wrapped a scarf around his neck, and wore a mask to block the wind, appearing to look very warm.

      However, he merely looked warm.

      During the autumn and winter seasons, Yong’an was often very windy. So every time the wind blows, Lin Yuzhe felt that they were torture. Not to mention that right now, it was night time, so walking a few steps from the dorm to the campus gate, Lin Yuhe’s originally fair-skinned ears had turned red from the cold. However, his fingertips went white as if blood were drained, and were aching from the cold.

      Although he had worn a mask, he still was unable to escape from the cold’s invasion. An unbearable itch began to spread in his throat, causing bouts of uncontrollable coughing.

      Lin Yuhe had enough of the coughs. When he was eighteen, before he had surgery, every time he started to cough, it was very difficult for him to stop. Even though the current situation was much better, every time he caught a cold, he would still suffer from shortness of breath and tightness in the chest, causing him to feel very awful each time he coughed.

      By the time he reached the subway station, Lin Yuhe’s eyes had already reddened slightly. The plentiful supply of hot air in the station isolated the cold from outside, but it was still unable to dispel the cold within his body. So, he removed one side of his mask, then placed his fist against his lips and coughed twice, before taking in a long breath slowly.

      An auntie, who was in the line to enter the station with him, eyed him a few times and could help to ask, “Young man, are you alright?”

      Born with good looks, Lin Yuhe was already well likable. Due to the cold weather, his face seemed to be drained of color, evoking concern within people. Auntie reminded him earnestly, “There is hot water in the subway service station. You can go drink some and warm yourself up.”

      Lin Yuhe waved his hand. “I’m fine.”

      He smiled at Auntie, with especially gentle eyes and brows. “Thank you.”

      Auntie did not utter another word to him, but instead turned to chat quietly with a group of girls behind her, occasionally sneaking a look at Lin Yuzhe’s direction and emitting whispers of words such as ‘how handsome.’

      The number of stations he needed to take was not many, so before his body was able to warm up, Lin Yuhe had to alight the subway. Baring the wind, he walked for a few hundred meters, until he reached a warm restaurant. It was only then he was able to catch his breath a little.

      With the waiter leading the way, they walked to the third story. Lin Yuhe raised his hand to knock on the door.

      A stern female voice resounded from within the private room. “Come in.”

      He pushed the door open and entered. A neatly dressed, middle-aged woman sat in the room. She wore a slim fitted suit, had short hair, and deep laugh lines, causing others to think that she looked very fierce.

      Lin Yuhe greeted, “Aunt.”

      The woman nodded her head and raised her chin slightly, gesturing towards him. “Please sit.”

      When she spoke, there were no intonations in her voice, and her manner was as if she was talking to her subordinates’ boss.

      Lin Yuhe sat down and swept his gaze around the room before asking, “Where is my dad?”

      The woman answered, “There are some matters that he has to deal with in the office, so he would not be coming over. Today, I will be treating you this meal.”

      Lin Yuzhe lowered his eyes and replied softly, “Thank you, Aunt.”

      Stepmother and Father Lin had already been married for many years, but the way he addressed his stepmother still remained the same. 

      She had also never asked him to change.

      With only two of them sharing this dinner, the atmosphere was all the more oppressive, not looking like a family feast at all. After Lin Yuhe expressed that he had no preference, his stepmother went on to order a set meal, not even allowing him to see the menu. It goes to show that the purpose of this was not just to have a meal.

      Before the meal, the waiter served two cups of coffee. Once they had ordered, the waiter then left the room, leaving just the two of them.

      Stepmother bent her finger and knocked it against the table.

      “This time, I came here, especially to talk to you about the marriage with the eldest young master of the Lu Family.”


    The author has something to say:

    Lin Yuhe: I am still young, so I am not in a hurry to marry.

    Lu Nan: But I am anxious.
