~7 min read 1,287 words

Zhenhua University.

He Lan hung the washed clothes on the balcony, turned back into the room, and heard Jiang Linxian and Xu Mingyue discussing going to check in at a newly opened cafe this weekend.

"Lanlan, are you coming with us?" Xu Mingyue asked.

"I'm not going. A younger brother from my hometown is coming over, and I have to treat him to a meal," He Lan said.

"A younger brother from your hometown?" Jiang Linxian asked. "I remember your home is in the city, so how can you have a younger brother from your hometown?"

He Lan explained: "My dad grew up in the countryside, so I lived at my grandma's house for many years when I was a child. I didn't return to the city until I was in elementary school, but I still went back to live for a period of time every winter and summer vacation."

"Wow, is your younger brother from your hometown handsome?" Xu Mingyue asked immediately. "How tall?"

"He looks very ordinary, don't get any ideas," He Lan said immediately. "I haven't seen him for more than a year. He happens to be coming this time, so I can see him."

Jiang Linxian said: "How old is he?"

"Alright, you two stop arguing," Xu Mingyue persuaded helplessly. "Everyone's values are different, so what's worth arguing about? Lanlan, Lu Yan He should be starting his broadcast soon, aren't you going to watch his live stream?"

"Why be polite with me."

"You two just take care of yourselves, don't put such a big burden on yourselves, I'm fine."

"Even so, we are friends who grew up together," Jiang Linxian's words made He Lan feel very uncomfortable. "Don't say such things to me in the future, I don't like hearing them."

Xu Mingyue couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Jiang Linxian immediately said: "I will never understand in my life."

"Huh? You think I'm afraid of affecting you? I'm afraid the neighbors will come to find trouble with us," Li Zhibai stretched. "However, Old Lu, you're quite awesome. You really started reading as soon as you said you would, not lazy at all."

Lu Yan He sighed and told himself in his heart not to overthink it.

However, he didn't call her senior, but said: Thank you, I'll continue reading.

Beautiful Girl Lanlan sent an angry emoji.

"He—" He Lan said awkwardly, "He went to work after graduating from high school. He didn't go to university, didn't get in."

Since he had already made the decision to participate in the college entrance exam and get into Yuming or Zhenhua, he should just sprint toward this goal. Everything else was noisy noise, and he shouldn't be disturbed.

At 11:00 PM, Lu Yan He walked out of the room with a water cup and saw Li Zhibai sitting on the living room floor playing games alone.

Jiang Linxian: "..."

Li Zhibai suddenly thought of something and asked: "Are you short of money?"

He Lan: "Ah, yes!"

He looked up and suddenly saw that familiar ID "Beautiful Girl Lanlan" had sent several messages in the live stream chat.

"Lanlan is just like this, why do you always question her," Xu Mingyue said to Jiang Linxian. "Anyway, Lu Yan He just buries his head in doing problems during his live stream. Lanlan wants to watch, so let her watch."

"No need to be polite, I just... fine, then when you guys become popular, treat me to a few more meals," Lu Yan He said.

Jiang Linxian: "It's not that I'm utilitarian, but this world is just so realistic. You are in university now, and he is already working outside. When you work in the future, he will still be working, and your circles of life and work will be completely different, and the income gap will also become larger and larger. You will know the difference then."

Lu Yan He continued reading.

This feeling of being completely abandoned, Lu Yan He considered himself to have strong psychological quality, but he still couldn't let go of the lingering sense of loneliness.

Why is Zhou Ping'an so cold to him?

"Oh." Xu Mingyue also felt a bit awkward. "Fine."

He Lan answered righteously: "His face."

"Then which university does he attend?" Xu Mingyue asked curiously.

Playing games without dubbing, the fun would be reduced by half.

Lu Yan He smiled and said: "There is no capital to be lazy either. At present, I only have the path of studying."

Although he acted very indifferent in front of Li Zhibai and Yan Liang, now that he was alone, Lu Yan He found that he still cared a little in his heart.

Jiang Linxian showed an unbelievable expression: "What, He Lan, you are still watching Lu Yan He's live stream? What's so good about his live stream?"

"Treating to a meal? Ha, does this still need to wait until we become popular? Tell me what you want to eat, I'll pay."

"Sigh, Zhou Ping'an is not acting like a human," Li Zhibai said again. "Don't worry, when Yan Liang and I become popular, we will definitely take you with us, we won't leave you behind."

"Why is the sound muted?" Lu Yan He asked in surprise.

Li Zhibai paused the game and said: "The soundproofing of our room isn't very good, it's too noisy if the sound is on."

"Stay away from such people, you are not in the same circle anymore," Jiang Linxian said, her tone full of disdain for He Lan's younger brother from her hometown.

Quiet, don't let your heart be chaotic.

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: Come on, try to get into Zhenhua!

Lu Yan He was stunned. This statement made him curious and ask: Are you from Zhenhua?

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: Yes, little junior, call me senior quickly.

"Nineteen, graduated from high school last year."

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: I'm here!

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: Actually reading "Comprehensive Mirror in Aid of Governance"!

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: Lu Lu, you look so handsome when you study seriously!

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: Lu Lu, you are distracted, come back to your senses quickly, study seriously!

Lu Yan He finished reading these four comments, couldn't help it, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he laughed.

"Turn on the live stream every night, put it there, I do my things, look up at him from time to time, just like my boyfriend is accompanying me," He Lan folded her hands on her chest. "You guys won't understand this beautiful feeling."

"Whatever you want," Jiang Linxian said.

"We have known each other since we were young, how are we not in the same circle," He Lan rolled her eyes at Jiang Linxian dissatisfiedly, saying: "Why are you so utilitarian?"

He Lan hummed softly.

Lu Yanhe turned on the live stream and read "Comprehensive Mirror in Aid of Governance."

Lu Yan He held the water cup, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Actually, it's fine if you turn on the sound, it won't affect me."

Lu Yan He couldn't help laughing again.

Beautiful Girl Lanlan: You saw what I said?

Lu Yan He typed to reply: Well, thanks for the reminder, I've come back to my senses.

"No, there's no place to spend money," Lu Yan He patted Li Zhibai on the shoulder. "Alright, you continue playing, I'm going to continue reading."

"Tell me if you are short of money," Li Zhibai said to Lu Yan He's back. "I don't have much, but I can still lend you some small money."

"Okay." Lu Yan He's back made an OK gesture to him. "Thanks."
