Chapter 18 I Will Never Be a Dog for a Woman
"I'm starving! I feel like I could eat a whole cow right now!"

"Auntie, give me some curry chicken rice."

"I want a chicken curry rice, too."

After a whole morning of classes, Chen Yuan and his classmates were already starving and almost rushed into the cafeteria.

The cafeteria at Lanzhou University is generally good. The portions given by the auntie are always sufficient. Chen Yuan has a decent appetite and he sticks to the principle of not wasting food, which results in him always eating very full. He has gained a few pounds in the few months since he came to school.

Serving the colorful and fragrant curry chicken rice, he found a random seat and sat down. Several other roommates came over after buying food and sat down with some enjoyment, smelling the aroma of the food. This curry chicken rice is served with broccoli, shredded carrots and cabbage, with rice and chicken in the middle, and a large spoonful of curry with a strong aroma on the far right.

The steamed rice was loose, round, and translucent, still steaming. The fried chicken was exactly the kind that Chen Yuan liked the most, with a golden and crispy skin and very tender meat. You could even squeeze out oil if you pressed it hard with chopsticks.

It was already lunchtime, and students were constantly entering the cafeteria. Most of them did the same thing when they entered: closed their umbrellas, wiped the water droplets off their bodies, and followed the smell to find the food they wanted to eat.

The windows were covered with a layer of white mist. I couldn't see the scenery outside. I could only hear the sound of the endless rain.

In this situation, it is simply a blessing to bury your head in food.

"Third brother, try these wontons, they are so delicious."

"it is good."

Chen Yuan was about to reach out to grab the plastic spoon in the bowl, but Wei Zhen had already scooped out wontons and handed them to him. Maybe it was because of different habits, Wei Zhen always had to eat with soup, no matter it was morning, noon or night, he couldn't eat without soup. He had tomato stewed rice for lunch today, and the wontons sold next to him happened to be steaming and fragrant, so he bought some and took a few more spoons.

Chen Yuan was a little dazed, but still opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Yeah! It's really delicious."

"I didn't lie to you." Wei Zhen's face was filled with a smile.

This scene, which could have highlighted the harmony and friendship among roommates, caused Liu Nan and Quan Yafeng to pause when using their chopsticks.

"...Oh, Xiao Zhenzhen, I want to eat wontons too~"

Quan Yafeng acted coquettishly and made faces, twisting his broad shoulders, which scared Chen Yuan so much that he almost spit out his food.

There are four people in the dormitory. The eldest is a pure and muscular man with strong limbs and a simple mind. The only thing missing is a dark skin. Otherwise, he can be regarded as a standard rude sheep. The second is a neat young man from the north, with a short haircut and a square face. He is straightforward. He is best at commenting on female classmates, and the thing he dares not do the most is to strike up a conversation with them.

The fourth one, Wei Zhen, is a little special. He looks cute, is not tall, and has a gentle personality. Generally, girls like him prefer to have him as their male best friend.

It's hard to imagine a big and strong man acting like a spoiled child.

Wei Zhen frowned, "Eat if you want to. Are you sick? Isn't the bowl right in front of your face?"

"But you fed the third one!"

"Are you competing with me for my favor? Get lost!"

Quan Yafeng was so angry that he dared not say anything. He could only mutter to himself and picked up the spoon to stuff two bites of wontons into his mouth.

Liu Nan laughed secretly, but after a few seconds of laughter, Quan Yafeng grabbed his throat.

"I'm eating... ah!"

Just eating, boys can always have a lot of fun. Chen Yuan looked at such a "warm" scene, and a smile appeared on his lips. In fact, from childhood to adulthood, the male classmates he met were all very good, and very few were born bad. When he went to college, the few in the dormitory were also very tolerant of his temper.

On the first day he entered the dormitory after entering university, Chen Yuan knew that life would never be boring.

Unlike the girls' dormitory, it is really easy for girls to quarrel over there. It is common for four people in a dormitory to form four or five chat groups. Maybe this is the difference between men and women.

"Come to think of it, Senior Sister Liu Tingyue from this morning was pretty good-looking," Liu Nan raised his eyebrows and said in a mean way, "She's the type I like."

“Are there any types you don’t like?”

"Senior Liu, I advise you to stop thinking about it. She has had many suitors since high school. A kid like you will be ruined by you in less than three months..." Quan Yafeng said vaguely as he stuffed a mouthful of rice into his mouth.

"I can't believe you have such good eyesight, boss?" Wei Zhen was a little surprised.

"It's not about eyesight. I heard that when I was in high school, there were a lot of boys chasing after her. Some were so obsessed that they even wrote a thousand-word essay on the confession wall. When they graduated, they even carefully planned a confession or something."

"Any questions?"

"Of course there is a problem. There are so many people chasing after her, but Senior Sister Liu has never explicitly rejected anyone... Hey, let me ask you," Quan Yafeng pulled Liu Nan over, "if you expressed to Senior Sister the idea of ​​taking things a step further, but she disagreed, and didn't say she hated you, but just euphemistically said she didn't have that idea for the time being."

"Then I'll feel like... I still have a chance?"

"Yep!"

Quan Yafeng clapped his hands, "No promises, no responsibilities, no rejections, giving you a little hope when you are disappointed, isn't this just raising fish?"

Chen Yuan didn't expect that although the eldest sister looked simple, she could see through people so clearly. There are indeed such girls. With their good looks, they easily win the favor of many male classmates and enjoy the feeling of being the center of attention. They seem to be very gentle to everyone and have a good relationship with everyone.

It's just to satisfy my vanity.

"She's really beautiful..." Wei Zhen took out his mobile phone and looked through Liu Tingyue's circle of friends. Her circle of friends was like a face with makeup, and all the contents were carefully selected.

He handed it to Chen Yuan to see. Chen Yuan took a quick glance and couldn't help but feel amazed.

If Liu Tingyue's real appearance is six points, then she is definitely seven points after putting on makeup. After a series of processes such as skin smoothing, face reshaping, whitening..., she is actually not much different from those good-looking internet celebrities in short videos.

It is not surprising that she stands out among a group of ordinary female college students.

"Rather than empty talk, I actually want an overt preference..." Chen Yuan read out a message from one of the friends' circles, in which Senior Liu added a photo of herself sitting on a bench at school with her long hair flying.

It looks full of atmosphere.

"And this: I'm always worried that my overly strong possessiveness will disgust you. Maybe I've never been worthy of being firmly chosen..." Wei Zhen read another article, trembling all over, and goose bumps appeared on his arms.

The green tea flavor is so strong!

Some people might really think that she is a poor girl who has suffered a lot and only longs for pure love, but in fact she has been hurt by others.

"Then why did she invite Chen Yuan to the Arts Department?"

"Hard to say."

“It’s hard to judge.”

"It's hard to imagine..." Chen Yuan recalled the scene in the morning when Liu Tingyue was frightened by the thunder and trembled in fear, snuggling into his arms, making people mistakenly think that she was going to steal his meal card.

But the truth is far more serious than stealing meal cards.

"Although I told my senior sister this morning to introduce more girlfriends to her, I hope that we brothers will remember..." Quan Yafeng took a deep breath and said seriously: "In today's society, the concept of love is already very distorted. As young people of the new era, we must remember one principle!"

"What rules?"

"I will never be a dog for a woman! If anyone wants to be a dog, don't blame me for not recognizing him as a brother!"

"well said!"

Liu Nan patted his belly to express his strong agreement. In his eyes, the boss's figure suddenly became bright and majestic.

Chen Yuan stuffed a piece of chicken steak into his mouth and did not forget to give a thumbs up.

He was eating when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

hum-

Chen Yuan took out his cell phone and saw that the caller was from an unfamiliar number, but the location was Lanjing.

He answered the call, and a lazy and pleasant voice came from the other end of the line:
"Hey, guess who I am?"

"I don't know. I hung up."

"Stop, stop, stop..." The person on the other end of the phone suddenly panicked and said the word "stop" several times. "I'm just saying something to you. There's no need to be so cold."

In the first sentence, Chen Yuan recognized it as "Jiang Ning". They had been calling each other for half a year while they were in an online relationship, so it would be strange if he didn't recognize it.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

"Well... Actually, I want to talk to you about getting back together. Chen Yuan, are you free today?"

Jiang Yao spoke carefully, with a hint of pleading in her voice, and coupled with her already pleasant and magnetic voice, it really made people feel soft-hearted.

If it weren't for that conversation in the morning.

Chen Yuan wouldn't have such a bad attitude.

He was actually somewhat moved yesterday, and if there was a chance, he would be willing to speak out the truth. But Chen Yuan hated the way Jiang Ning always acted like a teacher. Who was she showing it to?

Come on, you are a teacher, yes! But you are also my ex-girlfriend, and our relationship in private is always equal.

Jiang Ning insisted on occupying the high and mighty position, or being the humble one wagging the tail.

Do you have any special hobbies, Teacher Jiang?

Either you treat yourself as a dog or you treat yourself as a master! Can't we have an equal dialogue?
"I'm busy today and don't have time."
