Chapter 40 Sisters
Chapter 40 Sisters
The dormitory was filled with a faint smell of mothballs, mixed with the warm scent of bedding that had been exposed to the sun.
Lu Zijin put down the photo album in his hand, sighed softly, and a layer of fine beads of sweat seeped out of his snow-white forehead.
She raised her hand and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, her movement graceful and charming.
"Boom boom boom——"
There was a knock on the door and Lu Zijin frowned in confusion.
She just came to the new school today and is unfamiliar with the place. Who would come to look for her?
"Coming." She answered softly, walked to the door and opened it.
"Zijin!"
A vibrant voice accompanied by a fragrant breeze came, and Ye Yiling pounced on her like a happy little deer, hugged Lu Zijin tightly, and rubbed her fair cheek affectionately.
"Zijin, I haven't seen you for a year. I miss you so much!"
"Sister Yiling?" Lu Zijin looked at the energetic girl in front of him with surprise, a faint blush appearing on his delicate face.
Ye Yiling let go of her, giggled, walked into the dormitory, and began to look around with her bright eyes.
"Wow, what a big dormitory! It's much bigger than ours. That's why being rich is so good." There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone, but there was no malice in it.
"Sister Yiling, how do you know I'm here?" Lu Zijin asked puzzledly.
Ye Yiling rolled her eyes at her in a complaining manner, "What are you talking about? You came to Tianyuan College to study without telling me. If your grandfather hadn't asked me to take care of you, I wouldn't have known you were coming."
She walked to Lu Zijin and pinched her fair cheek. "Tell me, are you in love? Have you forgotten your best friends because you have a lover?"
Lu Zijin's cheeks instantly became hot, like a ripe apple. She hurriedly shook her head to deny it, "No, I'm not in a relationship."
"Really?" Ye Yiling looked at her suspiciously, with a sly smile on her lips, "Forget it then. Oh, we haven't seen each other for a long time, rich sister, you have to treat me to a good meal!"
"Okay, okay," Lu Zijin smiled helplessly. This good sister who grew up with her has always been like this, and she has gotten used to it.
"By the way." Ye Yiling smiled mysteriously, leaned close to Lu Zijin's ear, and lowered her voice, "I'm telling you, I met a new student at the school gate today. He's very handsome and has a great body."
She began to describe the handsome freshman incessantly, but Lu Zijin seemed a little absent-minded.
Lin Ye's figure appeared uncontrollably in her mind.
After not seeing each other for two months, she couldn't help but open the chat box with Lin Ye and stare blankly every night.
"Zijin, what are you daydreaming about?" Ye Yiling's voice brought Lu Zijin back to reality.
"Ah? Nothing." Lu Zijin hurriedly covered up his gaffe and forced himself not to think about Lin Ye.
Damn it, why is my mind full of him?
Lu Zijin scratched her hair in annoyance. Could it be that she had fallen in love with him?
It doesn’t make sense!
I just exchanged the knight's belt and followed him through the dungeon.
Obviously they are just good friends.
Treat him as a friend
right?
No, no, I can’t think about it anymore!
Lu Zijin shook his head vigorously, trying to put those messy thoughts behind him.
"Let me tell you, that handsome freshman," Ye Yiling was still talking excitedly. Lu Zijin responded perfunctorily, but at the same time he couldn't help but start to pay attention to the "handsome freshman" that Ye Yiling mentioned.
No matter how she listened, she felt that this description was very similar to him.
Wait, could she really be talking about Lin Ye?
Ye Yiling was so excited that she even took out her cell phone from her pocket and waved it in front of Lu Zijin, "Hey, I'm determined to get him this time! I've got the handsome boy's contact information!" She raised her carefully trimmed eyebrows, her tone full of undisguised pride, "What do you think, are you envious? I might be the first one to get married before you!"
Lu Zijin was listening casually at first, but Ye Yiling's words were like a thunder, exploding in her ears.
She raised her head suddenly and nervously grasped Ye Yiling's arm, her fingertips turning slightly white due to the force, "What's the name of the boy you're talking about?"
"Hmm~ Let me think about it." Ye Yiling dragged out her tone in a mysterious manner, seemingly unaware of Lu Zijin's nervousness and anticipation at the moment.
Lu Zijin's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and her breathing became rapid.
"I think his name is Lin Ye?" Ye Yiling tilted her head and thought for a while, then said uncertainly.
"Lin Ye." Lu Zijin murmured to himself, the familiar face appeared in his mind, and his heart was beating like a roller coaster.
It's really him!
How did he meet Sister Yiling?
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Yiling noticed that Lu Zijin was acting strangely and asked with concern, "Why do you look so bad all of a sudden? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, nothing." Lu Zijin came back to his senses and forced a smile to hide his panic, "I'm just a little tired."
"Yeah, I'm pretty tired after just moving to the dormitory." Ye Yiling said, standing up and stretching, showing her curves and full of youthful vitality, "Then I'll go back to the dormitory first. When your military training is over, I'll take you out to play, little rich girl!"
"Wait, Sister Yiling." Lu Zijin stopped her, with a hint of pleading in her tone, "Can you please not contact that guy named Lin Ye recently?"
Ye Yiling was stunned for a moment, and looked at her with confusion, "Why? Do you know him?"
"I" Lu Zijin hesitated, not knowing how to explain, "I just think girls should be more reserved and not be too proactive."
"Oh, Zijin, your thinking is too conservative!" Ye Yiling waved her hand disapprovingly, "What era is it now? You are still reserved! If you like him, go after him. Besides, it's hard to find good boys nowadays. What if he is snatched away by someone else?"
"But."
"No buts!" Ye Yiling interrupted her, "Don't worry, I know what I am doing, just wait for my good news!"
After saying that, Ye Yiling winked at Lu Zijin, then left the dormitory humming a song.
Lu Zijin slumped weakly into the chair, looking at Ye Yiling's departing back, feeling mixed emotions.
How come Lin Ye hooked up with another woman on the first day of school?
No!
What does it have to do with me who he hooks up with? !
Lu Zijin shook his head and lay down on the sofa angrily.
So angry!
She stood up, took out her Decade Driver from her luggage, and looked at the Driver before falling into silence.
In the past two months, she has been training hard at home for a long time.
She is naturally gifted, and Decade is the strongest knight with SSS-level potential. It can be said that her strength is growing exponentially every day.
Now, she feels that even Lin Ye, who was as powerful as a god in the novice copy, is not her opponent.
"Lin Ye, you bastard, just wait for me!"
