Chapter 515: – The dormitory is so dangerous, scary
Going to school again after a two month break.
Lin Jin arrived at the classroom listed on her schedule at around 10:10. By the time she got there, more than half of the class had already arrived. Probably because it was the first class of the semester, the classroom was almost full.
Walking into the classroom, Lin Jin glanced at the unfamiliar teacher and went straight to sit next to Wu Min.
Whenever Wu Min and Wen Xuan arrived early, they would always save a seat next to them for her. Even if they didn't leave a seat, Lin Jin could also chat with other classmates, but she wasn't as close to other classmates as she was with those two. Also, the other classmates have always thought of her as a crossdresser.
"Attendance."
The teacher on the podium began expressionlessly calling people’s names. After confirming everyone was present, he started introducing himself.
Lin Jin wasn't interested in this sort of thing. After one year of college, she could only remember a few teachers' names. As for their phone numbers, she didn't even have her counselor's.
Wu Min, who sat beside Lin Jin, poked her arm with his finger.
"What's up?" Lin Jin turned her head to look at Wu Min, a bit confused.
"That guy who came to pick you up at the dorm yesterday, is he your boyfriend?"
Although Lin Jin and Xia Tian hadn't shown any intimacy in front of Wu Min yesterday, Wu Min had lived with Lin Jin for a semester. Even if he didn't know everything about her, he at least knew that she rarely looked so excited and expectant about someone. She even had a look full of happiness.
"Eh?" Lin Jin blushed in surprise.
Wen Xuan, who was separated from Lin Jin by a Wu Min, heard his words and immediately turned his head, extremely interested in Lin Jin's gossip.
"No way, really?" Seeing Lin Jin’s reaction, Wu Min was so surprised that his jaw dropped.
You have to know that back then, Lin Jin was a full on tomboy. At that time, she even planned to chase after girls. He always thought Lin Jin was a lesbian with a girl's body and a boy's heart. But she actually found a boyfriend?
F*ck, if he had known Lin Jin liked men, then didn’t he seem to have missed out on something?
Such a pretty girl sneaked out of the dormitory and found some random man. Good things shouldn't go to outsiders! But then again, there seemed to be a saying about rabbits not eating the grass near their burrow.
Wu Min suddenly wore a despairing look.
Although he didn't have much romantic feelings toward Lin Jin, she was pretty. Even if there were no feelings between man and woman, he would still feel a bit disappointed.
"What do you mean by that expression? It can’t be you like me too?" Lin Jin blinked her big eyes and suddenly decided "It’s okay! I'll just start a harem! How about you join my harem!"
"Are you an idiot?"
The spectating Wen Xuan rolled his eyes at Lin Jin.
"Tch!" Lin Jin was of course just joking. Stuff like starting a harem felt appalling no matter how she thought about it.
Especially since she was a girl.
They stopped chatting for now. Lin Jin listened to the lecture seriously for a moment, but found that the teacher for this class didn’t seem to care about them and was just teaching as they pleased. Lin Jin listened for a long time but basically didn’t understand anything. Only later, with the teacher's in class demonstration, did she finally understand a bit.
The morning class was only two hours. After it ended, it was already past twelve.
As soon as the teacher announced the end of class, a group of people couldn't wait to rush out of the class. Lin Jin on the other hand wasn't in a hurry and stood up slowly.
Just as she was about to leave, Wu Min suddenly asked, "Want to go to eat together at the cafeteria?"
"The cafeteria? I’ll see?" Lin Jin tilted her head to look at Wu Min. "If he comes, then I'll go eat with him."
Lin Jin still found it a bit hard to say the word "boyfriend" to her friends.
"Forgetting your friends after finding a boyfriend." Wu Min laughed. "There’s clearly just a tiny difference in the words."
"Crazy."
Lin Jin led the way out of the classroom. Just as she reached the door, she actually saw Xia Tian with his hands in his pockets and leaning against the wall outside, looking at her.
"You're here." A smile immediately appeared on Lin Jin's face as she hurried over. "Have you bought lunch already? When do you have to go to work?"
"I only have an hour for lunch break. I'll leave after eating with you."
Wu Min and Wen Xuan, who followed Lin Jin out of the classroom, glanced at each other and shrugged, indicating they had just been fed a mouthful of dog food.
"Wu Min, I won't go to the cafeteria with you guys for lunch." Lin Jin turned back and waved at the two of them with a smile, then quickly pulled Xia Tian away.
After all, it was a bit too conspicuous over here.
Xia Tian was helplessly dragged out of the teaching building. He glanced at the campus filled with students and smiled as he said to Lin Jin in a low voice: "I've only been on campus for a few minutes, but I already feel like I've aged a lot. I clearly only graduated less than two years ago."
"That means you’re old inside." Lin Jin laughed, letting go of Xia Tian's hand and walking ahead of him. "Let's go, where are we eating?"
"I brought you food from near the company. It tastes pretty good." Xia Tian caught up and walked beside her. "I've been having lunch at that shop recently and especially got you a deluxe version. Try it when we get back. If you like it, I'll bring it for you at noon from now on."
"Then it’s better if I don’t like it. You only have an hour for lunch and it takes almost an hour just to come back and forth, right?"
"It's fine. There's no clock in for work in the afternoon. It’s fine if I’m a bit late as long as the boss doesn’t notice. Even if he does, at most he’ll just say a few words." Xia Tian really enjoyed walking side by side with Lin Jin.
Especially after experiencing being ignored by Lin Jin when walking together before, Xia Tian had begun to stick to her more when they were out, holding her hand from time to time. After a few times, Lin Jin now was no longer that resistant to walking intimately with Xia Tian on the street.
After all, show strangers enough public displays of affection and you’ll eventually get used to it.
Xia Tian once again grabbed Lin Jin's hand. She tried to pull it out but found her entire hand was firmly held in his palm.
"We're still on campus. Don't let my classmates see us." Lin Jin's expression darkened a bit.
Then she saw Zhu Dong and his group chatting and laughing as they walked in from the school’s main gate. When Zhu Dong saw Lin Jin's hand being held by Xia Tian, he was so shocked that he was stunned.
"See? We've been spotted..."
Lin Jin unhappily glared at Xia Tian, then pretended not to see Zhu Dong and walked straight ahead.
However, while Zhu Dong was stunned, his roommates who were with him were even more stunned.
In their whole dorm, except for Zhu Dong, none of the others had much interaction with Lin Jin. They only knew Lin Jin was a guy, but it was the first time they had seen Lin Jin being so intimate with another man.
"It turns out Lin Jin is gay? That's disgusting." The delicate looking guy said with a laugh.
Then another of Zhu Dong's roommates glared at him: "What's wrong with being gay!"
"Huh?"
He looked again at Zhu Dong staring intently at Lin Jin's back and suddenly shuddered all over.
Why did he feel like the dormitory was dangerous? Maybe he should move out?
Translator’s Note: Dog Food means PDA (Public display of affection). I try to localize things to English, but some things just won’t make sense / sound too awkward.
