CHAPTER 52: CHAPTER 52: THE GIRLS’ PRESSURE

It’s something only women can understand—the kind of pressure they face.

But it’s like how men compare size; everyone is around the Asian average or slightly above, and then suddenly, in comes a member of Big Bang. The pressure is imaginable.

Li Sinan has her eyes on Xu Lin now.

In the animal kingdom, the stronger or better-hunting animals have priority in mating rights.

But in human society, it’s much more complicated, with many layers.

For example, at the student level in university, being good-looking is the most appealing trait, even more so than money sometimes. If you’re both good-looking and rich, you’re in a league of your own.

To Li Sinan, Xu Lin is such a candidate now.

He’s good-looking, and his family owns a Panamera.

This combination totally outshines Liu Longsheng.

In fact, before Xu Lin appeared, Liu Longsheng was Li Sinan’s top choice, but now that Xu Lin is here, she feels Liu Longsheng doesn’t stand a chance against Xu Lin.

Xu Lin is handsome, wealthy, and tall; he’s the package deal of tall, rich, and handsome.

But then Rong Xiyi appeared.

Li Sinan is afraid Rong Xiyi will attend the dorm mixer and snatch Xu Lin away.

Luckily, Rong Xiyi said she’s not going.

Rong Xiyi has been in the dorm for three hours now. She came by herself, no parents to be seen. After arranging her luggage, she started playing mobile games.

"Are you guys going to shower?"

At this moment, Rong Xiyi asked the three other girls in the dorm.

The others shook their heads.

Li Sinan said, "You go ahead first!"

So Rong Xiyi headed into the bathroom to shower. Actually, there are two bathrooms here, but everyone knows girls take longer showers.

Rong Xiyi spent over half an hour in the shower.

When she came out, she looked like a water lily emerging from the water; heaven knows how beautiful she is.

Especially with her wearing sports shorts after the shower, those long, attractive legs were dazzling!

How can one even survive in such conditions?

Li Sinan was always confident about her own legs. Ever since graduating high school, she loved wearing super-short shorts or skirts to show them off. She’s used to getting high acknowledgement for her beautiful legs.

But now, she truly felt surpassed.

Li Sinan realized for the first time that a girl’s legs can be this beautiful!

Those porcelain skin-like legs were pure envy-inducing!

Before, when she wore wide-leg pants, everyone thought Rong Xiyi had elephant legs. Even though she was beautiful, the wicked thought crossed everyone’s mind that, at least, Rong Xiyi would have elephant legs. That way, she wouldn’t be Perfect, but it turned out her legs were stunning too!

And the other two roommates, Zhao Fangfei and Liu Wange, both had above-average looks. With some dressing up, they’re cute girls, but they still can’t compare to Li Sinan, let alone Rong Xiyi.

Rong Xiyi, besides being beautiful, also had a great figure with a large chest, a perky and large butt, and a pair of unbeatable long legs.

Moreover, she was over 1.74 meters tall, making her the tallest in the dorm.

All three girls felt unprecedented pressure!

Rong Xiyi seemed like a high-dimensional woman, utterly overwhelming the three of them, who felt like they were in a low-dimensional world.

So Liu Wange said to Zhao Fangfei, "Feifei, want to go to the cafeteria and get milk tea?"

"Sure, I was just craving some milk tea!"

Zhao Fangfei replied.

Li Sinan also said, "I want milk tea too!"

So the three girls left together, not asking Rong Xiyi, nor did they want to.

With Rong Xiyi’s top-tier looks and figure, it was tough for the three of them to play along with her because, standing next to her, they would always pale in comparison and be ignored.

Unlike guys who don’t care about height, weight, looks, or wealth and still bond closely, girls have much more complicated social interactions.

Girls need attention, and they’re afraid of disparity.

Especially pretty girls or those who think they are pretty.

Having an absolutely stunning girl around brings enormous pressure.

Meanwhile, in the dorm, Rong Xiyi was doing laundry by hand since they hadn’t bought a washing machine yet.

She quickly finished washing clothes and reopened her game to play.

However, soon enough, she stopped playing because she encountered what seemed to be a cheater.

This annoyed Rong Xiyi, and she reported the player.

Time passed, and evening descended.

A little past seven o’clock.

Class assistant Gu Yan @everyone: "Hello everyone, class meeting at 7:30 sharp!!"

Over in Xu Lin’s dorm.

Liu Longsheng was also back and changed into a flashy and trendy outfit for the dorm mixer tonight. He styled his hair with wax and gel, giving off a bit of a rapper vibe, looking quite handsome.

"Liu Longsheng, looking sharp!"

Xie Zhengrong remarked after glancing over.

"Not too bad!"

Liu Longsheng responded with a calm expression, but he was quite pleased inside.

Few people dislike being praised for their looks.

Looking over to Xu Lin, Liu Longsheng saw him playing "Yanyun Sixteen Sounds" mobile version.

He had been playing for over an hour.

"Ahem, Xu Lin!"

"What?"

Xu Lin looked up.

"I want to pursue Li Sinan!"

Liu Longsheng was worried Xu Lin might be a contender.

Xu Lin was wearing just a T-shirt and flashy shorts, along with flip-flops.

But he’s quite the handsome guy.

Xu Lin said, "Then I wish you luck!"

"Ahem, it’s a sure thing!"

Feeling confident, Liu Longsheng even found Xu Lin to be pleasing to the eye.

Feeling on top of the world, Liu Longsheng rallied the group: "Alright, guys, the class meeting is about to start. Let’s head to the classroom! After the class meeting, we’ll go for a big dinner at the night market. Don’t hold back tonight, guys!"

Xie Zhengrong asked again, "Liu Longsheng, are we taking your car to the night market tonight?"

"Ahem, no, guys, I’m planning to take the girls from Li Sinan’s dorm, so please bear with me and make your way there. It’s not far, just a ten-minute walk from the school gate. Or you can take the school’s small minibus from the gate."

At Finance University, there are several small minibuses transporting students to and from the night market. Furthermore, there are also plenty of shared bikes available on both sides of the street and opposite the gate.

"Fine, you got this, Liu Longsheng!"

Xie Zhengrong didn’t think twice about it.

Hu Donghai also had no comments.

Meanwhile, Xu Lin was already messaging Gu Yan.

Before school started, people had asked Gu Yan if she rode a small e-scooter, to which she had said she owned one.

Xu Lin: "Senior, can I borrow your e-scooter tonight for the dorm gathering?"

Even though he didn’t have the exclusive e300 ride like Liu Longsheng, it was well known that guys always went above and beyond when treating girls, even if they had no money. They’d borrow or even take out loans if they had to. Tonight promised to be a lavish meal, especially since Liu Longsheng had some money to throw around.

Xu Lin believed in the saying that if you don’t take advantage of a good deal, you’re a fool; he was set on attending this meal.

Besides, it was Liu Longsheng’s invitation; it would be hard to refuse.

But there was no way Xu Lin was going to walk there.

He had already decided to use Gu Yan’s e-scooter.

Half a minute later, Xu Lin got a response.

Gu Yan: "I need the e-scooter tonight, but my roommate can lend you hers!"

Xu Lin: "Okay, thanks, Senior."

Shortly after, Gu Yan replied again: "My roommate is at the cafeteria, you can go pick up the scooter there, at the main entrance of Cafeteria 1."

"On my way."

Xu Lin sent a quick reply.

Then, as everyone else headed downstairs to the classroom, Xu Lin said, "You guys head to the classroom first; I need to swing by the cafeteria."

The three didn’t think much of it and headed to the classroom first.

Before long, Xu Lin met Gu Yan’s roommate outside the cafeteria. They chatted a bit before she handed him the scooter keys.

"Thanks, Senior!"

"You’re welcome!"

This senior was adorable and quite good-looking, with a soft-spoken manner.

Then, Xu Lin rode the scooter to the classroom building where the class meeting was held.

Finally, he parked the scooter across the street in the e-scooter lot.
