Chapter 21
With the end of midterm exams, Ye Zhou’s foot completely healed.
Also, he didn’t know whether the atmosphere in each dorm was different, but in Ye Zhou’s original dorm, four people acted together most of the time. When the four people couldn’t gather together at the same time, at least two people would act together. In 405, it was usually Liu Yutian who went with Wen Renxu, and Ye Zhou didn’t notice what Zhan Xing was like. Anyway, in retrospect, Shang Jin was alone every time he carried his books and stepped into the classroom.
Could it be that no one took Shang Jin to go play?
Carrying his schoolbag, Ye Zhou originally wanted to meet with his former roommate, but looking at Shang Jin all alone by himself, it seemed to be a bit…pitiful?
After all, in the several days that his foot had been seriously injured, Shang Jin and him had established a common revolutionary sentiment of the electric pedicab. At this time, didn’t abandoning his comrade-in-arms seem a little inappropriate?
Hand holding the doorknob, he hesitated for half a day and still put it down.
Ye Zhou put the schoolbag back and sent a text message to Zhou Wendao. He sat in a chair and waited for Shang Jin. When he heard the bathroom being unlocked, he immediately stood up, opened the schoolbag, and put both hands in the bag and pretended to look for things.
After Shang Jin came out of the bathroom, he looked at him and said, “You’re usually very agile. How come it takes so long to put away two books.”
“None of your business.” Ye Zhou pulled the zipper of his schoolbag and watched Shang Jin put on his shoes. He hefted up his schoolbag and said, “Going?”
“Yeah.” Shang Jin didn’t have a backpack. Instead, he directly held two books in his hands and filled his pocket with pens, following Ye Zhou to leave the dorm.
It was already the start of winter, and the temperature had dropped sharply. Together with the wind always blowing these two days, it had become more difficult to go to the classroom by bike.
Ye Zhou, whose mouth couldn’t stay idle, originally planned to ride side-by-side with Shang Jin and chat. Who knew when he opened his mouth, a cold breeze blew into his throat, wishing to freeze his heart. He silently gave up this plan and very deliberately rode behind Shang Jin.
At the classroom, Shang Jin said while parking, “You took me as a windbreaker.”
Ye Zhou boasted shamelessly, “I’m the trump card. I need to maintain my physical strength to be ready to sprint at any time!”
Shang Jin gave him a sidelong glance and crossed him to walk into the classroom first.
“Hey, you wait for me.”
Just entering the classroom, the school bell rang.
Ye Zhou experienced stepping into the door on the dot for the first time. Prepared to walk back to his familiar seat, he raised his eyes and saw Zhan Xing shiningly occupying his throne.
Why was there a feeling of being abandoned.
This group of ‘like the new, hate the old’ people!
His feelings hurt, Ye Zhou ignored his former roommates when class let out and immediately rushed to his bicycle. Because he’d come with Shang Jin, so when he pushed his bike, he naturally saw the nearby Shang Jin.
Although there was no appointment, but with the degree of familiarity of the two people now, Ye Zhou couldn’t ignore the situation, but directly said, “Let’s go.”
Then the two people accompanied each other to the canteen in front of everyone’s very relieved eyes.
Ye Zhou sat next to the window. Shang Jin held chopsticks on one hand, and looked out the window in a trance on the other hand.
“What happened to you?” Ye Zhou followed his line of sight and glanced out. “Eh, isn’t that the store old uncle’s pedicab? What, riding it for a few days and still have affection?”
Shang Jin didn’t answer his question, but directly said, “I’m thinking about whether to buy a pedicab. What do you think about the two of us forming a partnership to buy it?”
Ye Zhou was stupefied. “Are you fucking teasing me???”
Shang Jin said gravely, “I’ve had this idea for a while.”
“Don’t you have a bike?”
“I think the pedicab is a very sensible invention. It’s easier to operate than a bicycle. When you turn the handlebar, the vehicle starts. When you step on the brake, the vehicle stops. Not much to say about the seat, and there’s no need to control the balance. The size is smaller than a car; there’s no need to worry about traffic jam problems.” Shang Jin looked at Ye Zhou and said, “Not to mention just driving around campus.”
“Want to buy it then buy it yourself. What are you looking for me for…” Ye Zhou silently moved his plate to stay away from Shang Jin. He felt that he was guilty for actually opening a magical gate for the school’s male god. When Su Yin found out that the last time Shang Jin rode a pedicab was to carry him, he’d been torn apart by that Shang Jin’s fan.
“My male god!! Actually!! In! A! Pedicab!” This time, after Ye Zhou’s injury had gotten well, Su Yin immediately summoned him out with a phone call. When she saw him, her first sentence wasn’t to ask how his injury was, but rather indignantly: “Shang Jin, he should be driving a sports car, chic and casually racing along the road!! Ye Zhou, you really have the ability. It’s okay that you’re down-to-earth, but you also dragged Shang Jin down to earth with you!”
Ye Zhou dryly laughed and said, “Breathing in too much immortal energy, a person wouldn’t be able to connect to the earthly people.”
“I’ve decided! I don’t want to pull the strings for you and Tang Dongdong! I won’t even let you be ordinary friends!” Finished speaking, classmate Su Yin valiantly and spiritedly left Ye Zhou’s sight, leaving Ye Zhou alone with his hand stretched out like thus, neither able to justify nor detain.
“I’ve looked on the Internet two days ago. Pedicabs are divided into various types: open-air and enclosed…”
Shang Jin’s words brought Ye Zhou back from his memories. He took a sip of soup and said, “Is that so.”
“The weather is getting colder; you also felt it when riding the bike this morning. Not to mention when it rains or snows, riding the bike would be more difficult.” Shang Jin took out his mobile phone and found two models of fully-enclosed pedicabs and said, “Buy this kind, you won’t be cold riding it and even less cold sitting in it.”
Ye Zhou agreed, “Seems like it. In fact, the sun is so big in the summer, you’d be exposed to the sun when cycling.”
“Right. Light and convenient, fast, and comfortable. Buy it?”
Ye Zhou was a bit stirred. When he had arrived at the cafeteria just now, he had hid behind Shang Jin and used Shang Jin as a windbreak wall. It was just November and still hadn’t reached the coldest period yet…
Looking back on the heavy rain last year, he’d held an umbrella with one hand and handled the handlebars with the other. When the wheel got stuck in a small puddle, he’d lost his balance, and if it weren’t for his long legs, he might have been thrown down like a dog eating mud.
“I’ll think about it.”
As a result, as they were going back, Ye Zhou returned the kindness and helped Shang Jin to clear the way.
“Buy buy buy!!!”
That afternoon, Shang Jin took the impatient Ye Zhou to the nearby electric car shop and selected a fully-enclosed electric pedicab.
Impulse was the devil!
Sitting in the carriage, Ye Zhou continuously regretted. Why did he obsessively listen to Shang Jin and got bewitched!
But this regret, after seeing his classmates riding their bike shivering in the wind, inexplicably dissipated.
He could only hope that after those female fans of Shang Jin learned of this matter, they wouldn’t organize a group to come beat him up…
