CHAPTER 1459: CHAPTER 626 HAIJING NORMAL UNIVERSITY EXPERIENCES

"Xiao Bai!"

Li Wei shouted from afar, and when he got closer, he jumped off his bike, kicked the bike stand with his right foot, and rushed towards Lin Baici with a gust of wind.

"Xiao Bai!"

Li Wei hugged Lin Baici tightly and patted him hard on the back.

"Do we need to be this affectionate?"

Lin Baici laughed and hugged Li Wei back hard: "Are you planning to kiss me too?"

Some passing girls heard this and were visibly shocked, turning their heads.

"Get lost!"

Li Wei pushed Lin Baici away with a mock-annoyed look.

In this city far from home, Li Wei didn’t have many friends, so seeing Lin Baici brought a natural sense of closeness and joy.

To put it simply, the school environment and current life made Li Wei feel exhausted and lonely.

"Have you lost weight?"

Lin Baici sized up his childhood friend: "Is it because you’re saving money and eating poorly, or are you just overworked?"

"The food at our school is pretty good!"

Li Wei rubbed his dark circles: "It’s just I’m too tired!"

Some people, once they get to college and have no one to manage them, completely slack off and play around all day, but Li Wei didn’t dare slack off at all; besides studying, he also had to work part-time.

"Aren’t you going to pay attention to your personal hygiene?"

Lin Baici messed with Li Wei’s hair: "It’s gotten so long but you’re not getting it cut?"

Because he was in a hurry to come down, Li Wei’s hair was messy, and his jeans and sports jacket were wrinkled and looked like they hadn’t been washed in days.

"Too lazy to care!"

Li Wei tidied up his hair a bit.

"Looking like this, what girl would like you?"

Lin Baici slightly furrowed his brow: "Even if you’re poor, you should at least be clean and tidy, right?"

"You say that as if even if I spruce myself up, there’d be girls who’d like me?"

Li Wei sighed.

"Are you planning to give up on finding love in college?"

Lin Baici heard the disappointment and low self-esteem in Li Wei’s tone.

"Sigh!"

Li Wei was depressed: "There’s a dude in our dorm who got a girlfriend two months ago, and his monthly expenses are at least four thousand yuan. He used to go out to eat now and then, but now it’s instant noodles or bread with pickles every day, and he’s started borrowing our toilet paper and shampoo!"

"Scary!"

Li Wei didn’t want to live like that, and that dude’s family had some money but still couldn’t keep up with such spending. If he got a girlfriend, he’d end up with nothing to eat.

"The rich have their way of dating, and the poor have theirs. Not all girls are that materialistic."

Lin Baici comforted his friend, but honestly, he also felt that it’s tough without money.

Before coming to college, he planned to make money shooting videos, and once his wallet was full, he’d pursue the girl he liked.

To put it bluntly, Lin Baici had a strong sense of pride. He was afraid that if he were too poor, girls would suffer with him.

"Yeah, some like faces. So, do you think my face is good enough?"

Li Wei rolled his eyes.

He’s just a five-out-of-ten guy. With great effort he’d be a six, and that’s the best he could do.

"What about you, Xiao Bai? Found a girlfriend yet?"

From elementary to high school, Lin had received love letters at every stage, especially in high school where some girls even chased him, but his goal was to get into a good college, so he rejected them all and focused on studying.

Now in college, he must have found someone by now.

"Nope!"

Lin Baici shook his head. It wasn’t a lie; he thought having women around and having a girlfriend were two different things.

"Anyone you’re interested in then?"

Li Wei was curious.

"Yes!"

Towards his childhood friend, there was nothing to hide.

Li Wei got excited all of a sudden and put his arm around Lin Baici’s shoulders: "Is it a classmate? Or a senior? I bet it’s a senior, right? You’ve always liked older girls since you were little!"

"Which eye of yours saw that I liked older girls?"

Lin Baici was taken aback.

"No need to be shy. Older women are like gold, and seniors know how to take care of people, no coaxing needed."

Li Wei squeezed Lin Baici’s shoulder: "Come on, spill it!"

"It’s a senior in her fourth year!"

Lin Baici told a little lie. He couldn’t mention Gu Qingxiang because her position as a counselor was special, and indeed she was older than him. If he told his friend, it would cause a stir.

"See, I told you you like older women, and you still denied it!"

Li Wei laughed heartily: "Got a picture? Let me check her out for you!"

"Nope!"

Lin Baici changed the subject: "Didn’t you always talk about the campus beauty? How beautiful is she?"

"It’s not just about beauty; it’s about her outstanding temperament, get it? Like a lotus that remains untainted by the mud."

Li Wei racked his brains for adjectives: "A girl from the literature department, nurtured by poetry and classics, are you kidding me?"

"By the way, her family is quite wealthy, she’s a rich second generation!"

Li Wei suddenly had a bright idea: "How about we go to the library now? We might run into her. With your looks, you might just win her over!"

After saying this casually, Li Wei suddenly clapped his hands, showing a realization.

"Yeah, Xiao Bai, you should give it a try!"

Li Wei sized up Lin Baici: "Since she comes from money, she should value looks and talent more. You might not have as much talent as me, but your looks are at least eight out of ten, damn..."

Li Wei was surprised. He hadn’t looked closely at Lin Baici before, but now upon careful observation, he realized his friend had an outstanding aura.

With jeans on the bottom, a sporty jacket on top, and hair over an inch long, he looked neat and energetic.

His pupils were dark, his eyes bright, steady and deep when you met them, and the lines of his face - in high school they were soft, like a young, innocent boy, but now, they had a striking handsomeness.
