Chapter 526: Passive Romance Expert

Hearing that he's about to be caught as a typical case, Lu Cheng felt a bit regretful.

If he had just kissed, being caught would be understandable; the point is he did nothing, how unfair.

While Lu Cheng was thinking how to handle it, the people gathering around came closer, and among them a classmate with short cropped hair felt familiar.

"Lu President?"

Since graduating, Lu Cheng hadn't heard that title in a long time; back then he was also a prominent figure on campus, so being recognized wasn't surprising at all.

Lu Cheng also recognized that Xiaopingtou, but couldn't recall the name.

He couldn't remember at the moment, but knew the classmate came from a poor family and had once helped him with wages.

Since they knew each other, it would be easy; whether in society or this small school circle, there's always someone who can get things done.

"Ah, it's you," Lu Cheng greeted, and at the same time let Yang Yin down.

Xiaopingtou hurriedly told the other classmates, "Stop shining, put your flashlights down; this is our former Lu President."

The other classmates crowded closer and indeed saw it.

"Lu President, why is it you? If you had spoken just now, we wouldn't have chased."

Lu Cheng replied, "Mainly, many of you in the Student Union don't recognize anyone; like those two just now, their flashlights were pointed at my face, yet they didn't recognize me."

Xiaopingtou apologetically said, "Sorry, Lu President, those two are first-year freshmen. Our Student Union still follows your former ideas, upholding democracy, so from freshman to senior year we select a few students to join the Student Union."

Lu Cheng nodded, "So what are you doing tonight?"

"Well, the lotus flowers at Lotus Pond have bloomed recently, and some classmates reported people courting there, being all lovey-dovey. The school leadership thought this harmed public morals, so they assigned our Student Union to patrol at night…"

So that's why; some old notions are hard to change. In later times, not only kissing by the lake but even making love in a small grove would be considered normal.

But Lu Cheng is no longer President; any school actions are not for him to question.

Lu Cheng cleared his throat, "The school's decision is correct; it does harm public morals and damages the image of our Qingbei University. You should prioritize your studies; romance will only affect your future."

Xiaopingtou nodded vigorously, telling the others, "Did you hear? The President is still the President; this level of enlightenment is enough for you to study for a hundred years. Always remember Lu President's words; if you can't sleep at night, replay them in your mind."

The others also nodded, and Lu Cheng took the chance to say, "Alright, if there's nothing else, continue your patrol; don't waste your precious time on me."

Xiaopingtou shook his head, "Not wasting, not wasting. Every time we chat with Lu President, we gain new insights. I hope Lu President can find time to return to campus and give us a lecture."

"Alright, definitely, definitely. Go be busy, thanks for your hard work…"

Lu Cheng just wanted to dismiss them quickly, and they gave the former President face, preparing to leave, but at that moment the two classmates who had fallen into the lake ran over.

"Why are you all leaving? Isn't it caught? Take it to the Security Department…"

"Yeah, look at what they did to us, we're soaked all over, it must be reported school-wide…"

Xiaopingtou walked over, "What kind of report! This is Lu President."

"Lu President? Which Lu President? Our President's surname is Zhang."

Xiaopingtou glared, "It's the former Lu President, already graduated."

The classmate who fell into the lake seemed to recall, mainly because Lu Cheng's reputation was famous; even as a freshman just joining the Student Committee, they'd heard Lu Cheng's story.

Apparently back then Lu Cheng was a lower-year student, and by his reputation reversed the votes, successfully becoming Student Committee President.

It was said he was a Borrowed Student sent by the Railway Unit, studying while working, and led classmates in practical projects at school.

In short, he was a very talk-worthy figure.

This person hesitated a bit, "Then how to catch him! First, Lu Cheng is a former President, already graduated; catching him is useless."

He could only look at Yang Yin, pointing, "Then catching her should work; I can't be thrown into the lake for nothing."

Xiaopingtou glared, "Catch your head? She's Professor Yang's daughter. Move along, who made you unstable?"

"I wasn't unstable? No, how did it become my instability! It was clearly him who threw…"

That person suddenly fell silent, because all the Student Union classmates had left, leaving only him, and he lost his nerve.

Looking again toward the dormitory stairs, he saw Yang Yin clenching a small fist, showing a tiny fang, with a fierce expression.

Damn, a former President and Professor Yang's daughter; neither can be provoked!

The scene fell silent; recalling the recent "escape" felt like a dream, and Yang Yin found it amusing and thrilling.

But recalling further back to the lakeside scene, Yang Yin's heart was still pounding.

"Lu San'er, I, I went up."

Lu Cheng watched Yang Yin speaking with his head down; after this ordeal, almost being caught as a typical case, Yang Yin had lost the earlier defiant aura at the lake.

"Hmm, go upstairs and rest."

Yang Yin, hands behind his back, stepped back, "Then I'm really going upstairs; you go home and stay safe."

"Okay."

Yang Yin turned around and then back, "Will you still come tomorrow? Tonight's moonlight isn't bright enough, so it doesn't count."

Lu Cheng took a slight breath; he actually didn't want to come, mainly because after that incident, everyone in the Student Union knew him.

Moreover, the Student Union said they patrol every night, being watched there, unable to do anything, which is truly boring.

"How about… let's skip tomorrow; after all, you're on break, I can come to your place."

Yang Yin tilted his head, thought a moment, "Hmm? That works, then goodbye."

Lu Cheng was about to wave, but Yang Yin had already turned and hurried toward the stairs.

Just as Lu Cheng was about to go home, he heard footsteps on the stairs coming down again.

Lu Cheng hadn't even reacted before the warm, soft body leapt into his arms.

"Lu San'er, I like the tobacco scent on you; you should cherish a girl who steals cigarettes for you, understand?"

The warm, soft body made Lu Cheng's heart race; he was about to reach out and hold the girl tighter, but Yang Yin suddenly ran away.

The emptiness in his arms left Lu Cheng like a falling leaf, suspended in midair, with no ground.

Lu Cheng shook his head helplessly; he considered himself a master of romance, unrivaled in love affairs, yet before Yang Yin he always ended up passive.

Looking at the stairwell, Lu Cheng took a deep breath, resolved that next time he must let this little girl see his true skill.
