Chapter 754: 739. The orange cat is about to give birth! (2)
As the dance party progressed, the band’s lead singer on stage even started interacting with the students.
They organized song guessing games and impromptu performance activities, giving away many small toys to the students present.
The boys spared no effort in helping the girls grab toys, and the atmosphere on site just exploded with enthusiasm!
An active Huo Feng also snatched four toys in one go and gave them to Pu Sangzhi, causing all the girls at the table to be extremely envious of Pu Sangzhi!
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t carry so many by herself, so she distributed the four toys to the other girls in her dormitory. Of course, this was after getting Huo Feng’s agreement to do so.
The dance party likely ended at around 9:00 PM, and afterward, the boys rode their bikes to take the girls back to their dormitories.
Processions of bikes solemnly traveled along the campus pathways. In this night, the figures of boys and girls exuded a youthful vibe.
Pu Sangzhi sat on the back seat of Huo Feng’s bicycle, holding onto his waist, and looked up at his sturdy back and slender neck, feeling a warmth in her heart.
The longer she spent time with him, the more she watched him grow, mature, turning from a boy into a man...
She felt more and more that she had made the right bet.
Pu Sangzhi gradually felt like she was raising Huo Feng...
Through the years of training, accompanying, and growing together, he would ultimately become her favorite type.
It wasn’t that he changed for her, but through continuous adjustments, she would come to like everything about him, including all his flaws.
...
Around 10:30 PM, in the Minal No. 5 women’s dormitory, Pu Sangzhi and three other girls had already comfortably settled into bed, and the room’s light was also off.
In the pitch-dark environment, the four girls chatted and shared their thoughts, naturally veering towards the topic of boys.
They discussed what type of boys each of them liked.
Minal said she liked handsome boys, or those with charisma.
As long as their looks were guaranteed, she could accept any type from domineering to brooding to aloof to gentle, as long as they treated her well. She was truly versatile!
Wei Zixuan said she also liked handsome boys.
But on top of good looks, they had to be responsible, ambitious, and faithful.
Mu Mu said, likewise, she liked handsome boys. As long as they were good-looking and could chat and make her laugh, that was enough.
Given that Mu Mu was somewhat of a shy type, it was normal for her to expect a boy who could chat.
So, after hearing Mu Mu say that, the other three girls in the dormitory immediately asked her, "Doesn’t that mean you’ve rejected your childhood friend outright?"
Because everyone knew that Mu Mu’s childhood friend was not good at chatting and was also introverted and shy, needing others to take the lead.
"He actually..."
However, Mu Mu reversed her stance to speak in his defense, "He’s not that bad at chatting. When he’s with me, he can talk quite a bit."
"You only really talk when you’re with him," Minal said bluntly, "You don’t talk much with us either. You might as well just be with him!"
Mu Mu could only panic and deny it, "That’s not what I meant. We haven’t considered that aspect. If it was supposed to develop, it would have developed long ago..."
Wei Zixuan nodded in agreement, "True. You’ve known each other for so many years, the longer friends remain friends, the less likely it evolves into something deeper. I think you should find someone else who can really chat, like Sangzhi’s boyfriend!"
"Ah~"
Speaking of Huo Feng, Minal couldn’t help but sigh, "I don’t know where Sangzhi found such a boyfriend, I want the same model too~"
Wei Zixuan also said, "Me too..."
Now, every girl in the dormitory envied Pu Sangzhi for having a boyfriend like Huo Feng.
Although the girls had very little interaction with Huo Feng, after hearing so much about what Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng experienced during their high school years, and based on the limited encounters they had had, the girls thought highly of Huo Feng!
Huo Feng, this kind of secure, puppy-dog boyfriend—who knew which place had nurtured such a man?
Such boys, please ask his mother to have a few more...
"It seems like you guys aren’t too satisfied with today’s dance partners."
Pu Sangzhi laughed and said, "Logically speaking, shouldn’t you develop a relationship with your dance partner after the dance party ends? Why does everyone seem like they’re shifting targets?"
"Hey..."
Minal waved her hand, "How could I possibly develop something with Sun Yifeng? He’s not even good-looking. I agreed to be his dance partner, but that’s all it was—a dance partner. After eating so much of his food, I couldn’t just let him be alone at the dance."
Wei Zixuan also said, "I agreed to a partner just because I couldn’t find one. I never thought about developing something with a boy from the same department. Having one person from the Civil Engineering Department in the family is enough..."
Mu Mu silently listened without joining in the discussion.
Because Mu Mu was quite pleased with her dance partner.
Suddenly Minal thought of something, raised her head, and grabbed onto the rail of Pu Sangzhi’s bed, "Sangzhi, that’s Zhejiang Wenzhou, right? I heard that people from Wenzhou are really good at doing business; staying with someone from Wenzhou can make you rich! Do you have any fellow townspeople to introduce me to?"
"People from Wenzhou..."
Pu Sangzhi didn’t know why everyone in China had this misconception about people from Wenzhou. She pursed her lips and thought for a while, "Huo Feng does have many younger brothers. But they’re not from Tsinghua, nor are they as handsome as Huo Feng. I don’t know if you would like them."
Just as she finished saying this, suddenly, the phone beside Pu Sangzhi’s pillow lit up...
Pu Sangzhi picked up the phone and saw that Ye Xi had sent her a WeChat message.
She immediately clicked on it and saw Ye Xi’s message: [Fat Orange is going to give birth these days, want to come and see?]
Fat Orange was the little orange cat Pu Sangzhi had picked up and given to Ye Xi.
The name was also given by Pu Sangzhi; Ye Xi found it very cute and easy to say.
Seeing this message, Pu Sangzhi immediately replied to Ye Xi with a smile, [Sure, I have no classes on Saturday tomorrow, I’ll come visit you.]
At that moment, Minal, who slept opposite her, looked up and saw this message. She couldn’t help but ask, "Who’s that? It doesn’t seem like your boyfriend..."
"You’re snooping on my messages..."
Pu Sangzhi subconsciously put away her phone, looked up, and met Minal’s sparkling black eyes in the dark.
"Sorry, I saw it in one glance, and my brain couldn’t stop my eyes quickly enough..."
Minal chuckled and apologized, "But, who is that? Who are you going to meet tomorrow?"
Pu Sangzhi wasn’t upset, thought for a moment, and felt that the message wasn’t a secret.
She then raised her hand to Minal and said, "You can’t snoop on my messages in the future. Although there’s nothing secretive, I don’t like it when people see my private messages without my consent."
Minal realized her mistake and pouted in apology, "Sorry..."
"Forget it, I won’t hold it against you."
This time, Pu Sangzhi let it slide, then explained, "Previously, when Huo Feng and I were walking around the campus, we encountered a pregnant orange cat. But at that time, we had military training and there might be an internal inspection, so we couldn’t bring the cat back. So, we temporarily sent it to Brother Ye Xi’s dorm to be taken care of."
"Brother Ye Xi?"
Minal raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, "That name sounds so nice. Hey, I think all your names sound so pleasant. Yours is nice, your boyfriend’s is nice, Mu Mu, Zixuan are all nice! This Ye Xi sounds nice too! I’m really envious of your Chinese names, I think my name is both long and unpleasant!"
"Brother Ye Xi, true to his name, has a gentle and kind nature. When you talk to him, it feels like sitting by a small stream, listening to the gentle flow of water."
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but praise Ye Xi’s name then finally started to introduce him, "He’s the neighbor boy I grew up with. I grew up with him and his sister since childhood, they were always around. Initially, it was my father who graduated from the Tsinghua University Department of Civil Engineering who influenced Brother Ye Xi, and so he also worked hard to get into Tsinghua Civil Engineering. After that, Brother Ye Xi influenced me, and I aimed to enter Tsinghua and study Civil Engineering from a young age."
"Oh~ So that’s how it is!"
Minal nodded in sudden understanding, "Hey, did you have a crush on him when you were a kid? Why didn’t you end up together?"
Minal really knew how to ask questions...
Every time, she could pinpoint the most embarrassing questions, making Pu Sangzhi very uncomfortable!
And this time was no different.
Pu Sangzhi suddenly couldn’t think of how to answer her...
After thinking for several seconds, she finally admitted, "He indeed was my childhood crush. But, I already have Huo Feng now."
"Oh~"
Minal nodded, "Missed opportunity, kinda sad."
"Ah, let’s not talk about this anymore. The orange cat is about to give birth, our dorm is going to have a cat oh!" Pu Sangzhi said.
