Chapter 337: Becoming the Public Enemy of the Boys

~8 min read 1,440 words

After the afternoon classes ended, everyone returned to their respective dormitories first, then arrived at a pre-arranged Sichuan restaurant near the school.

Besides the few people from the two dormitories, there were also Cheng Meng, Ceng Xin, Zhang Lang, and others—all classmates who were relatively close to Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan.

Of course, Su Yan had naturally been invited as well.

Finally, there were the two seniors, Xiao Yue and Ning Ruo.

There were fourteen people in total. Opening two tables would be a bit wasteful and wouldn't be as lively, so Qin Tian asked the waiter to add a few stools, and everyone sat around a large round table.

Ordering was also very simple; the two menus were passed around, and everyone ordered one or two dishes they liked.

There were classes tomorrow, so they didn't order any white spirits, but instead ordered two cases of beer, plus a few bottles of soft drinks.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Shen Siqi, Lu Lei, and Su Yan, who had prepared birthday gifts for Xia Nuannuan, presented them one after another.

The others either hadn't known about Xia Nuannuan's birthday beforehand, or hadn't expected Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan to invite them, so they hadn't had time to prepare anything.

Of course, Lv Yanran was not included in that group.

She hadn't thought about preparing anything at all, nor did she feel the slightest bit awkward, sitting there on her own, scrolling through her phone.

"It can't compare to the luxurious birthday gift package Qin Tian gave, don't mind it!"

When Su Yan handed over her gift box, she jokingly teased out of the blue.

The people at the table burst into laughter.

"Su Yan, why are you making fun of me too!"

Xia Nuannuan's face turned beet red, and she looked at her with a reproachful gaze.

"Su Yan, you didn't repost that post of hers, did you?"

Shen Siqi asked with a smile.

"I didn't!"

Su Yan shook her head with a smile and added, "But I saw the post on the forum too. I didn't even need to say anything; there were already people in our class who guessed it was the two of them."

Upon hearing this, the group cast knowing, teasing glances at the two of them.

Qin Tian drank his tea with composure, while Xia Nuannuan, sitting beside him, felt her pretty face flush even more.

"Oh my, this is my fault. I was the one who made the post on the forum."

Xiao Yue spoke up.

Shen Siqi and the others, who hadn't known about this, all looked at her in surprise.

Xiao Yue shrugged and gave a helpless, bitter smile: "I couldn't help it; the two of them are just too shippable. I couldn't hold it in for a moment, and feeling like I had to find someone to feel the 'sourness' with me, I just posted it on the forum. I didn't expect it to go viral after I woke up from a nap."

"Senior, I understand you!"

Cheng Meng suddenly revealed a bright smile, as if she had met a kindred spirit, and said, "It's just like discovering a good sweet-romance idol drama. When you see the sweet scenes between the male and female leads, you can't help but want to recommend it to others to watch together."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's exactly what I mean."

Xiao Yue's eyes brightened slightly, and she nodded repeatedly.

"Senior, don't say anything else; later, we must drink two glasses together."

Cheng Meng said with a straight face.

"That's a must."

Xiao Yue agreed quite readily.

"Then, as the good best friend who was 'sold' on this show, do I have to drink one too?"

Her best friend, Ning Ruo, who was sitting beside her, couldn't help but ask with a laugh.

"Of course!"

Xiao Yue nodded with a smile.

"Senior, Senior, count me in too! I'm their most loyal CP fan!"

Shen Siqi raised her hand excitedly and shouted.

"No problem, count you in!"

Xiao Yue pointed at her from across the table with a smile.

"Are you girls trying to form a fan club for them?"

Chen Zhuang joked with a chuckle.

"That's not impossible!"

Shen Siqi feigned a look of serious contemplation.

"Hey, hey, hey, that's enough, stop it already. How is this still going on!"

Xia Nuannuan shouted to stop them, feeling shy.

Once again, the sound of the group's happy laughter filled the table.

While they were chatting and laughing, the waiter quickly brought the drinks and food.

This Sichuan restaurant was recommended by Xiao Yue after Xia Nuannuan sent her a message to ask.

It is said that this shop has been open near Jiang University for nearly ten years, and business has always been very good. Especially when Jiang University students have birthdays or class gatherings, many of them come here.

The characteristic of Sichuan cuisine is that it is numbing, spicy, fresh, and fragrant, which is very much to the taste of young people.

After a few dishes were served one after another, everyone felt they looked great and were very appetizing.

The shop was also very thoughtful and cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for Xia Nuannuan. The waiter happened to be a senior from Jiang University working a part-time job there. When she brought the longevity noodles to Xia Nuannuan, she also offered a birthday blessing.

"My birthday was yesterday; it has already passed. Today is just everyone getting together to have a meal."

Xia Nuannuan said, feeling flattered.

"It's fine, I know."

The senior shook her head gently and said with a bright smile, "I saw the post on the school forum too. I only realized it was you guys just now when I heard you chatting."

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan was stunned and felt a bit embarrassed again.

"You guys eat slowly; more dishes will be here soon."

The senior smiled, then turned and headed toward the kitchen.

"Brother Tian, you guys are really famous now. I'm afraid you two will be known by the whole school very soon."

Cao Mingliang teased with a smile.

"It wasn't much different before!"

Qin Tian smiled indifferently and picked up a piece of beef for Xia Nuannuan beside him.

"No, this time I'm afraid it will be even livelier. Especially you, Brother Tian, you might not know how much hatred you're attracting!"

Cao Mingliang said with a serious expression.

"Right, that post on the forum went viral, and our difficulty in finding a partner has skyrocketed, okay!"

Zhang Lang agreed emphatically.

"Good thing I already have a girlfriend."

Ceng Xin smiled quite proudly, rejoicing that he had acted fast and found a girlfriend back in his hometown early on.

"Get lost! Shut up!"

Zhang Lang glared at him with eyes full of jealousy.

"That's not my fault either; you guys should blame the senior!"

Qin Tian pursed his lips toward Xiao Yue opposite him.

Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment and asked with a sheepish smile, "I just made a random post; is it that serious?"

Cao Mingliang and the other boys nodded in unison.

"Can't be? Should I delete the post?"

Xiao Yue suggested.

"It's already too late; it has already spread. But don't worry, Senior, everyone doesn't know you were the one who made the post. The only one who will become the public enemy of the boys will be Brother Tian."

Cao Mingliang said with a gloating smile.

Upon hearing this, Xia Nuannuan looked at Qin Tian with a gaze full of guilt and worry.

"Eat your food, don't listen to his nonsense!"

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"Sigh, Brother Tian, you are underestimating the anger of the single male compatriots!"

Cao Mingliang sighed and said.

Chen Zhuang and Zhang Lang nodded in deep agreement.

The former was fine, after all, he already had Shen Siqi as a target, but the latter was a genuine, "mother-born" single dog without even a target, so he felt it the most.

"So what? Is someone going to put a sack over my head and hit me with a club?"

Qin Tian said dismissively.

"Brother Tian, maybe there really is?"

Chen Zhuang grinned and laughed.

"Then who do you think can do it? Are you sure it won't be me rewarding them with a shoulder throw?"

Qin Tian glanced at him and asked with a smile.

Thinking of how he had previously beaten the Taekwondo Club President, Chen Zhuang was suddenly speechless.

Cao Mingliang and the others also looked at each other, feeling deeply moved in their hearts. ===== CHAPTER 338 =====
