Chapter 257: Interview

The afternoon sky was clear and blue without a cloud, the sunlight bright and warm, slanting through the glass into the classroom as if injecting the entire space with vitality and vigor.

With ten minutes left until class, the classroom was already bustling with people.

The students had all arrived early, scrambling for seats in the front rows.

In the very front row were the figures of several young women from Dormitory 602.

Sitting behind them were Zhu Baoping, Lin Yang, Tang Song, and Yuan Mingqing.

Their enthusiasm for learning was evident.

Noticing Shen Yan, Yu Youwei's eyes instantly lit up with radiance, and she greeted him sweetly: "Brother, you're back!"

"Mm!"

"Big Boss, sit here quickly; I've been waiting for you like the stars and the moon." Wu Yue'er had been notified in advance and immediately patted the empty seat beside her to signal him.

Shen Yan agreed with a smile, his gaze sweeping toward the shy girl; the moment their eyes met, the shy girl's originally fair cheeks suddenly flushed with two brilliant blushes like the evening glow.

She quickly lowered her head, seemingly wanting to bury it deep into her book.

At this moment, her heart was racing like a startled deer, feeling both shy and nervous.

Shen Yan couldn't help but chuckle; this shy personality was interesting no matter how he looked at it.

After sitting down, Wu Yue'er pushed a stack of handouts over without ceremony: "Brother, saving a life is like fighting a fire; hurry and help me annotate these again."

That soft, cute "Brother" directly broke Lin Yang's defenses, leaving him feeling as if he had been drowned in a sea of vinegar.

Damn it! He dreamed of his goddess calling him that.

Yet...

Someone else had achieved it so easily.

He hated that the person wasn't himself.

They were all people who had slept in the same bed, so who didn't know who? Shen Yan had no choice but to lend a helping hand.

Seeing Shen Yan agree to Wu Yue'er's request without a word, Yu Youwei pouted her pink lips, her heart feeling sour, while Luo Qiqi teased: "Yo! You guy who never gets up early without profit, did you lose your mind today or what? You agreed to help so easily."

Shen Yan sighed softly: "It's not that my resolve is weak, it's just that she offered too much."

"Oh? What benefits did Yue'er give you?" Luo Qiqi asked.

"She said she'd play matchmaker for the two of us, and my brain just overheated... Sigh! I regret it now." Shen Yan spouted nonsense with a straight face.

"You... you..." Luo Qiqi's face turned bright red.

For a moment, her mind was in complete chaos; she opened her mouth for a long time, but finally only spat out the words "Shameless."

Then she turned her head to the side.

The others couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing Luo Qiqi at a loss for the first time felt very interesting.

Wu Yue'er giggled there, chiming in: "It seems Qiqi is too shy and not suited for you; how about this sister recommends herself?"

"Is that the kind where you call me 'sister' during the day, and I call you 'sister' at night?" Shen Yan asked with a wicked smile.

"Anything works!"

Unlike Luo Qiqi, Wu Yue'er had a powerful heart and began to joke without any reservations.

That soft, silky tone made the hearts of the boys present thump wildly, their minds involuntarily conjuring scenes of Wu Yue'er moaning at night.

The temptation index was instantly maxed out.

Holy crap! I can't hold it!

Lin Yang's reaction was even more explosive, raising his flag to show respect.

To this day, he had realized yet another alluring side of Wu Yue'er; this woman was like poison—the deeper you knew her, the more addictive she became.

How good it would be if the one flirting with Wu Yue'er right now were him.

For a split second, Lin Yang even wanted to knock Wu Yue'er out and take her home to keep.

Shen Yan immediately changed the subject, shaking his head and saying: "Forget it! I just like the shy ones; I can't handle your type."

Once these words were out, Chen Shanni couldn't help but feel joy in her heart; Shen Yan had once revealed that he liked soft, timid, and shy girls, as they could better stir his desire to protect.

So it wasn't just talk.

Luo Qiqi, however, thought Shen Yan had ideas about her and was intentionally hinting at her, causing her calm, stagnant heart to ripple for the first time.

It couldn't be calmed for a long time.

No, she wasn't the timid and shy type; it must just be a misunderstanding.

Just a misunderstanding!

Luo Qiqi kept telling herself in her heart.

Wu Yue'er couldn't help but roll her eyes; "can't handle" my foot—she had been tossed about by him until she was dying of pleasure, almost to the point of kneeling down to sing "Conquer."

Damn man!

The way he spouted nonsense with a straight face was handsome no matter how you looked at it!

After the jokes, everyone turned their attention back to their studies.

Class began, and the Marxist Principles teacher spoke eloquently on the podium.

The students listened attentively in their seats, pen tips rustling, and phones constantly "click-clicking" to take photos...

With nothing to do, Shen Yan helped Wu Yue'er annotate her handouts, writing down the sources for each knowledge point so she wouldn't have to flip through books like a headless fly.

"Ding-a-ling!"

As the bell rang for the end of class, the final lecture of the semester concluded successfully; next would be 5 days of review time, followed by 5 days of final exams.

Once the exams were over, it meant the winter break would officially begin.

As the group walked out of the teaching building, Shen Yan was stretching lazily when suddenly, a tall and slender beauty appeared from nowhere.

She blocked Shen Yan's path.

She held the microphone, a brilliant smile blooming on her face, and said softly, "Brother Rice Noodles, I am Tang Guo from the Journalism Department, and I am currently working on an interview assignment. May I ask you a few questions?"

Shen Yan glanced at the boy behind her carrying the video camera and nodded, saying, "Go ahead and ask, but I don't guarantee I will answer every question."

Tang Guo did not seem surprised by this response; she smiled to thank Shen Yan, and after exchanging a look with the boy filming, she began to prepare her questions: "Classmate, may I ask how much money you keep in your wallet every day?"

Shen Yan: "I don't have a wallet!"

Tang Guo: "No way, don't all boys have wallets?"

Shen Yan: "Are you sure it's wallets that all boys have?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the boys chuckled one after another, while the girls' faces turned as pink as peach blossoms.

Beside them, Luo Qiqi muttered with a blushing face: "Shen Yan really has no sense of propriety; he dares to spout nonsense even in front of a camera."

Yu Youwei: "That's called humor, okay? Don't you think it's very interesting?"

Luo Qiqi stubbornly insisted she didn't think so, while others said that was just her lack of taste.

As the interviewer, Tang Guo was momentarily at a loss upon hearing this shocking answer, but fortunately, Shen Yan was just teasing, and he followed up immediately with an answer.

"I carry 500 yuan in my pocket, just in case of an emergency."

Tang Guo continued to ask: "May I ask, in the summer, many girls on campus show their thighs; what is your take on that?"

Shen Yan: "I look at them without blinking."
