Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Reconciliation, Xi of the Tides

"Ruoxi..."

"You haven’t mistaken him for someone else, have you?"

Yang Qingqing’s eyes widened as she asked in disbelief.

She remembered how, during military training, her entire dorm had vehemently condemned Lin Feng for his stunt with the water.

They had called him a clown!

They’d said he was only doing it to get Su Ruoxi’s attention.

And now, the man their entire dorm had united against was standing right in front of them.

And he was her brother’s roommate?

Hearing Yang Qingqing, Lin Feng’s three roommates hung their heads even lower.

’This is so damn embarrassing!’

A moment ago, they had been shamelessly teasing Lin Feng.

But now that Su Ruoxi had actually appeared before them, they all shriveled up.

All their slick talk was gone, as if they were afraid of being noticed.

Lin Feng, the instigator of it all, on the other hand, acted as if nothing was wrong, even under the four girls’ intense gazes.

He flashed a neat smile at Su Ruoxi and said,

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Lin Feng!"

As he spoke, Lin Feng extended his hand.

The other three girls all looked at Su Ruoxi, waiting for her response.

If she still refused to forgive Lin Feng...

...then they would stand with Su Ruoxi, come what may.

Even Yang Qiniang and the other two, who had been staring at the ground, unable to meet Su Ruoxi’s gaze, now lifted their heads.

They wanted to see how Su Ruoxi would react.

"Lin Feng?"

"That’s a nice name."

Su Ruoxi didn’t just turn and walk away as they had expected.

Instead, she praised Lin Feng’s name.

Then, she extended a delicate, fair hand and lightly shook his.

"I’m Su Ruoxi."

Su Ruoxi’s hand was a little cold, but exceptionally delicate.

Although it was just a brief touch before she pulled her hand back, Lin Feng could still feel how smooth and soft it was.

Seeing that the two parties involved had now buried the hatchet, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

The awkward atmosphere vanished in an instant.

Then, the group went around and introduced themselves.

Besides Su Ruoxi, the only other person Lin Feng remembered was Yang Qiniang’s sister, Yang Qingqing.

This was because her two other dorm mates were just too ordinary-looking.

Although Yang Qingqing’s Appearance couldn’t compare to Su Ruoxi’s...

...she was still a 9 out of 10 or higher.

A rare beauty!

Seeing this, Cao Ming and the others planned to use the introductions as a chance to shake Su Ruoxi’s hand, just like Lin Feng had.

They wanted to feel the campus belle’s fair, delicate hand for themselves.

To see what it really felt like.

However, Su Ruoxi didn’t seem interested in them. She just gave a slight nod, showing no intention of shaking their hands.

Cao Ming and the others could only retract their hands awkwardly.

But, in any case, after the round of introductions, the group gradually warmed up to each other.

It was still a bit awkward, but much better than at the beginning.

Once all the food arrived, the atmosphere grew more lively, thanks to Yang Qiniang and Yang Qingqing’s efforts.

They even started joking about Cao Ming and one of the other girls.

Cao Ming was from the north and had a more extroverted personality, while the girl was from the south and was more reserved.

Their personalities were quite complementary.

By the time they finished the hot pot, their relationship had clearly grown much closer.

Before parting ways, they even exchanged WeChat contacts.

The hot pot dinner for the eight of them cost five hundred yuan in total.

For a tier-one city, and at a popular online-famous restaurant no less, that price was actually quite cheap.

One could even say it was far below the average cost of living in Yang City.

After all, hot pot restaurants are generally more expensive than regular eateries. If they had gone to a place like Haidilao or Xiao Long Kan,

...a meal for eight would have cost at least four figures.

If Lin Feng hadn’t been bound to the Perfect Life System,

...this single hot pot meal would have wiped out more than half of his living expenses for the month.

But now, that amount of money was nothing to Lin Feng.

After receiving the Money Blessing, he was now someone who earned over ten thousand a day. Plus, there was a cold 200,000 sitting in his bank account, just waiting for him to spend it!

However, the meal was over, and he still hadn’t accomplished his goal for coming out tonight.

Just then, as the group reached the restaurant entrance, Yang Qingqing clung to Yang Qiniang’s arm and started to act cute.

"Bro, I’m out of foundation. Buy me another bottle!"

"Again?"

"Didn’t I just buy you a bottle last month?"

Hearing that Yang Qingqing wanted him to pay, Yang Qiniang immediately shook his head and refused. "Besides, Mom and Dad give you 50,000 yuan a month for living expenses!"

"They only give me 20,000, so how am I supposed to have any money left?"

Yang Qingqing let go of her brother’s arm, her face turning serious. "I don’t care. If you don’t buy it for me, I’ll tell Mom and Dad you’re bullying me at school!"

"Then we’ll see if they still give you an allowance!"

It was clear Yang Qingqing threatened her brother like this often; she did it with practiced ease.

Hearing this, Yang Qiniang immediately caved.

"Fine, I’ll buy it."

"I’ll buy it, alright?!"

Yang Qiniang shook his head, frustrated.

’How did I end up with a sister like this? Why isn’t there some rich idiot to come and take her off my hands!’

’That way, she wouldn’t be spending my allowance every day!’

He then turned to Lin Feng and the other two. "Want to go to the mall with us?"

Cao Ming and Jiang Chao both shook their heads.

’Are you kidding?’

’We’re completely broke.’

’Going out with rich kids like you would just be asking for misery, right?’

’We’d rather go back to the dorm and play some Genshin!’

The other two girls also said they didn’t want to go.

Seeing this, Yang Qiniang turned his gaze to Lin Feng. "Old Lin, are you going?"

Lin Feng nodded. "I’ll go with you. I actually need to buy a few things myself."

"Ruoxi, you can come with me then!"

Yang Qingqing grabbed Su Ruoxi’s arm, making the decision for her.

Su Ruoxi shook her head helplessly but had no choice but to agree.
