Han Zhou had already contacted Bai Tongtong, who quickly accepted his invitation, but said that three of her friends would come along.
Han Zhou replied that it was no problem.
Upon learning that there were three more people, Lin Anyu specially bought six cups of milk tea and prepared a lot of snacks. He wiped the stone table and chairs clean with paper towels, and taught by example from time to time, asking Han Zhou to learn more and telling him to be careful when getting along with girls.
Han Zhou ignored him. He was thinking about what kind of surprise to prepare for Gu Zheng.
Although it was Lin Anyu who said this, he didn't want to let Gu Zheng's expectations down.
He had already sent Bai Tongtong the location and photos of the pavilion they were in. All he had to do now was wait patiently.
About twenty minutes later, there was a burst of laughter coming from the steps under the pavilion, and four girls were seen walking up the steps.
"I'm so tired... Tongtong, why did you invite us to meet your high school classmates? Could it be that your classmate is very fierce?"
"How is that possible? If he was really fierce, Tongtong wouldn't have come. But Tongtong, you said your classmate is a handsome guy. Is that true?"
"I feel like this is fake. She just wants to trick us into coming with her... I'm so tired..."
Facing the roommates' chatter, Bai Tongtong chuckled and said, "I didn't lie to you. You'll see when you look up."
Everyone was stunned and looked up. They saw Lin Anyu standing beside the pavilion as if facing a great enemy. They looked at each other in surprise.
Zhao Ying was a little disappointed: "Tongtong, this guy is indeed a little handsome, but he is only a little handsome. He should not be able to be compared with a handsome guy, right?"
"Isn't it related?" Bai Tongtong smiled and rolled up her hair without saying much.
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Zhou appeared next to Lin Anyu. Zhao Ying's eyes widened instantly and she blurted out, "Fuck, so handsome!"
Her voice was quite loud and both Han Zhou and the other person in the pavilion heard it and looked down at the same time. Zhao Ying, far from feeling embarrassed, quickened her pace and ran into the pavilion.
"Xiaoying, wait for us!"
The other two roommates quickly caught up, but Bai Tongtong was not in a hurry at all. She tidied her hair a little, lifted her skirt and walked slowly into the pavilion.
At this time, her three roommates had already started chatting with Han Zhou. Zhao Ying was completely the female Chen Long, a complete social terrorist. In a short period of time, she had already found out everything about Han Zhou's major, grade, and hometown, and was now asking about his height and weight.
When she learned that Han Zhou was not a student of National Cheng Kung University, she could not hide her disappointment. Although she would not be able to pursue such a handsome guy, it would be nice to see him in school every day to feast her eyes. It was a pity that he was not from National Cheng Kung University.
Faced with being surrounded by several girls, Han Zhou felt a little overwhelmed. He didn't expect that Bai Tongtong's friends would be so enthusiastic. But Lin Anyu didn't help, but stared at Bai Tongtong who had just walked into the pavilion, as if he saw an mortal enemy.
"long time no see."
Bai Tongtong smiled and nodded slightly to him, showing no trace of the coldness she had shown at the class reunion.
Her appearance and even her voice are completely consistent with her temperament, giving people the feeling of a lady from a noble family. Her tone of voice is slower than that of ordinary people, but it does not make people feel lukewarm, but instead makes people feel more ladylike and dignified.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Compared to Bai Tongtong's calmness, Lin Anyu's tone was a little stiff.
In fact, it wasn't that the two hadn't seen each other for a long time. They had seen each other from a distance during military training before, but they had never spoken face to face.
Bai Tongtong stopped looking at him and looked at Han Zhou instead. She smiled and said, "Long time no see, Han Zhou. I didn't expect you would ask me out."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Thanks to her speaking up, Han Zhou was able to escape from the encirclement of the three girls. He smiled and said, "I came here to look for Lin Anyu. I remembered that you were also in this school, so I tried to contact you."
Bai Tongtong nodded and said with a smile: "You didn't come with Guzheng? I remember you two were in the same school, right?"
"She has something to do and won't be here until the afternoon."
Zhao Ying asked in a low voice: "Tongtong, who is Guzheng? It sounds like a girl's name."
"She was the monitor of our high school class, a very capable girl and also a great beauty." Bai Tongtong explained with a smile.
"A beautiful lady?" Zhao Ying's eyes lit up. "Then you must introduce her to us if you have the chance."
While they were talking, Han Zhou quietly approached Lin Anyu. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that the latter had a serious face and a frightened look with cold sweat running down his face. He was startled and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"
"terrible……"
Lin Anyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and murmured, "Bai Tongtong may be hiding deeper than we thought."
Han Zhou was stunned. He turned his head to look at Bai Tongtong, who was smiling and talking to her roommate, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lin Anyu's eyes deepened: "You are in the game, so it may be difficult for you to directly perceive the weirdness in her words just now. But I am outside the game, but I can clearly feel the difference. It's weird, really weird..."
Han Zhou resisted the urge to punch this guy, took a deep breath and said, "Can you please speak properly?"
"Think about it carefully. Bai Tongtong just asked you so naturally why you didn't come with Gu Zheng, as if she knew that you two had a good relationship. Don't you think this is strange?"
Lin Anyu's expression became more serious. "You should know that until the end of the class reunion, no one in the class knew the true relationship between you and Gu Zheng. Even I, your good brother, was kept in the dark. Bai Tongtong knew nothing. Why did she think that Gu Zheng, who was 'the best in the world', would accompany you here?"
Han Zhou was stunned. Although Lin Anyu's tone was a little bit immature, this was indeed a bit strange. It was a pity that this guy could even find such a suspicious point...
But he didn't really care: "She might just remember that Guzheng and I were in the same school, so she just mentioned it casually."
"No, if that's the case you're totally wrong..."
Lin Anyu narrowed his eyes slightly, as if the girl not far away was a man-eating devil, "This woman is far more terrifying than you think. I am even beginning to doubt the purpose of her bringing her friends here. From what happened just now, she is clearly using these three girls to contain you, so that I can only fight her alone!"
"It can't be wrong..."
"This woman is unfathomable!"

Chapter 150 Me too
Han Zhou wasn't sure whether Lin Anyu's guess was correct, but the development of things was indeed the same as the latter expected.
After introducing themselves to each other, he was once again surrounded by Bai Tongtong's three roommates, who kept asking him questions.
Faced with such a situation, Bai Tongtong just sat on the stone chair and watched with a smile. Lin Anyu had no intention of helping, but sat on another stone chair next to her, eating melon seeds with interest.
Although he knew that he and Han Zhou had completely fallen into Bai Tongtong's "trap", what he should do now was to try his best to appear serious. However, every time he saw Han Zhou's anxious look, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
He was watching with great interest when he heard Bai Tongtong beside him suddenly speak.
“Can I eat these?”
The girl's tone was a little slow and soothing, sounding very gentle.
But Lin Anyu would not be fooled by this appearance. He immediately straightened his face and said, "Of course, you can eat whatever you want. I bought it specially for everyone to eat together."
"Thank you."
Bai Tongtong did not take any other snacks. Instead, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the bag on the table behind him and cracked them quietly, placing the melon seed shells in the palm of her other hand.
Even when she was eating melon seeds, she still had a peaceful smile on her face.
Lin Anyu glanced at her, pushed his bag of melon seed shells to the middle of the table, and said, "Just throw the shells into the bag."
"Thank you."
Bai Tongtong thanked him again and threw the melon seed shells she had accumulated into her pocket.
The two stopped talking and just quietly ate melon seeds, looking into the distance.
This pavilion is located at a high altitude, so the view is quite good. From here you can see large tracts of flower beds. As long as the wind blows, the flowers in the flower beds will fall down row after row, like a continuous sea of flowers.
Lower down is a river with a very narrow channel. From a high vantage point, it looks like a glowing silver thread, weaving through the fields and flowing into the city together with other silver threads, gradually disappearing.
Lin Anyu watched all this quietly, feeling peaceful and calm. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was nice to go out and see the natural scenery occasionally. It just so happened that he had a driver's license now, so he could go on a self-driving tour if he had the chance...
He pressed hard with his index finger and thumb, and with a slight "click" sound, a melon seed kernel fell into his mouth accurately in a parabola.
Melon seeds are so delicious...
He squinted his eyes, indulging in the joy of eating melon seeds, when suddenly his expression changed and he shook his head violently, remembering the mission he was carrying -
What he should do is not to eat melon seeds here, but to get "evidence" from Bai Tongtong indirectly!
I unknowingly adapted to the other person's rhythm of eating sunflower seeds, and was almost corrupted by this guy...
Thinking of this, Lin Anyu quickly gathered his thoughts, but before he could say anything, Bai Tongtong spoke first.
“Is this caramel-flavored melon seeds?”
The tone was still slow and leisurely, with a hint of smile.
"Ah? Yes...that's right."
“Do you like the taste?”
"Not really... I just happened to see it in the supermarket, so I just picked up two packs. I still have one pack unopened, and it seems to be five-spice flavor."
"I see. Actually, I prefer butter-flavored melon seeds."
Why are we talking about melon seeds now?
Lin Anyu became alert and responded cautiously: "I like it too."
Bai Tongtong was silent for a while.
"How did you just do that?"
"what?"
"It's the one where you just pop the peeled melon into your mouth."
"Oh, this one is quite a skill-testing move. I call it 'free fall'. Even if I teach you, you may not be able to learn it..."
"..."
Lin Anyu was very pleased with himself. He thought to himself, it doesn't matter. Just talk about melon seeds. It's just a chat anyway. As long as he is given a little time, he can take control of the topic, change the topic, and finally get the truth out of Bai Tongtong...
Improvise, that was his plan!
……
"So you guys just chatted about melon seeds for such a long time?"
In front of the west gate of Chengyu University, Han Zhou held his forehead with his hand and said with a sad face, "Do you know how much I paid to help you hold back those three girls? I thought you would gain something, but in the end you just chatted with Bai Tongtong for an hour about the taste of melon seeds and the technique of eating melon seeds?"
Lin Anyu felt a little guilty and coughed twice, "Ahem, actually we didn't just talk about melon seeds, we also talked about many other things..."
He was a little at a loss for words, so he tried to change the subject, "Besides, I saw it clearly at the time, and you didn't pay any price. Those girls wouldn't take advantage of you, right?"
"Time and energy, what else are these if not costs?" Han Zhou said unhappily, "Wasting time is equivalent to chronic suicide. I committed suicide for an hour, while you spent an hour eating sunflower seeds."
Obviously, this "indirect attack" plan has completely failed. Before the action, Lin Anyu boasted to the sky, saying that he could control Bai Tongtong in minutes. However, after an hour, he didn't get a single answer out of her. It was really embarrassing.
Lin Anyu quickly defended himself, "You can't blame me for this. As I guessed before, Bai Tongtong is indeed an unfathomable woman. The whole process was flawless and the logic was tight. Even though I am rough but meticulous, it is inevitable that I made mistakes for a while."
