Didn't you see the three of us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yumo glanced at Chen Fan and chimed in with a smile, \"That's right. Is Ruochu the only one you see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu waved his hand with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my, I've offended three beautiful ladies by accident. I'm sorry, I sincerely apologize.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he proactively suggested, \"You all seem to be chatting so happily. Can we join your table?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yumo smiled and said, \"If it were any other day, we could decide. But today, we can't.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today, Ruochu is the main character.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu looked up and said softly, \"We don't need to. There's no more space.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intention to refuse was already quite clear, but unexpectedly, this senior suddenly laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not a problem, it's just a matter of adding a table.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fourth Brother, pull that table over here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, these four guys really dragged the table next to them and joined it with theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu naturally sat down next to Su Ruochu, then directly ignored Chen Fan across from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ruochu, last time I asked if you were interested in joining our research group, and you said you needed to think about it. Do you have an answer now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, as first-year graduate students, if you can have seniors to guide you, it will save a lot of time and help you avoid many detours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, in our major, we can't just stay locked up on campus theorizing. We need to go out and practice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My family happens to have connections in this field. If you're willing, I can help you get a spot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu didn't even look at Zhou Xiangyu and gave a straightforward refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need. Thank you, Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just started school, and I'd like to focus on learning the theoretical knowledge first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, she took a paper napkin, folded it gently, then reached over and wiped off a grain of rice from the corner of Chen Fan's mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu's sudden action stunned everyone present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three girls exchanged glances, suppressing their laughter, knowing there would be an interesting show to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four boys beside them, however, stared at Chen Fan in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu, as if he had just noticed Chen Fan, smiled and asked, \"I forgot to ask earlier, this is...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my fiance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fiance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The four boys exclaimed in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu's eyes widened even more: \"Fiance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yumo teased with a smile: \"That's right. He's her fiance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Fan and Su Ruochu were high school classmates, and they got together in college.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They got engaged right after graduating from university.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expression on Zhou Xiangyu's face was quite interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at Chen Fan with surprise, as if trying to size him up completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several seconds, he finally smiled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was ignorant, I'm sorry, I didn't notice earlier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he actually extended his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello. Zhou Xiangyu, from Beijing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan also smiled and shook his hand, \"Chen Fan, from Luocheng.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luocheng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu turned his head to look at his companion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is Luocheng?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His companion smiled slightly: \"Never heard of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It should be a relatively backward third or fourth-tier city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu immediately smiled knowingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a pity, brother, that you didn't get into the graduate program at the Communication University.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this your first time in Beijing? Do you want me to be your host and show you around?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, you've come all this way, don't be stingy with your money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can treat everyone, take you to the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Old Summer Palace... we can visit all the famous scenic spots...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to go shopping, we can also go to Sanlitun, Dashilar, Wangfujing, New World Department Store...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, it's rare to come to Beijing, don't be afraid to spend money. You should buy lots of specialties to take back home.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan nodded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you. I'll definitely have a good look around when the time comes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Chen Fan being so honest, Zhou Xiangyu thought he had figured out this guy's background, estimating that he was just another country bumpkin from some small place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he turned his attention back to Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ruochu, really, you must seriously consider my suggestion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, I happen to have an opportunity tomorrow to go with our supervisor to interview a business elite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't need to tell you how rare such opportunities are. If you agree, I can talk to the supervisor and try to get an extra spot for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His roommate chimed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Zhou is the supervisor's favorite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, Xiangyu has already signed a job agreement with a newspaper before even graduating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The newspaper actually came to our school to recruit him specifically.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right. Not everyone can have such treatment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his three roommates' praises, Zhou Xiangyu waved his hand with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, why are you talking about these things?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the side, Lin Yumo and the other two girls were trying hard to suppress their laughter as they watched this guy perform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Sun Xiaoxiao, who was lowering her head, her body shaking, obviously about to burst into laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, they might have thought Senior Zhou was excellent, an upperclassman admired by everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after knowing the background of Ruochu's boyfriend, when they heard Senior Zhou's words now, it seemed like a clown's performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even said not to be stingy with money. He really thought the other guy was a country bumpkin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew that Chen Fan had previously given each of them a branded bag worth several thousand yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he gave them, he didn't even blink an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he lack money for shopping?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu didn't notice the expressions of the three girls and was still trying to get close to Su Ruochu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you say, Ruochu? Want to come with me? It's a chance to broaden your horizons, very good for personal growth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu was still polite, but her tone was a bit cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need. Thank you, Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't have time tomorrow, I need to accompany my fiance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she looked up at Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you finished eating?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm full. The food in your cafeteria is very good. As expected of a prestigious university.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu stood up and took her bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let's go. I want to show my fiance around our campus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, you all enjoy your meal. We'll be going now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Xiaoxiao quickly waved her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We three won't be third wheels. We'll head back to the dorm after we finish eating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she didn't forget to wave at Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Handsome, goodbye.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't forget to safely send our Ruochu back, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan smiled, \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the two leave, Zhou Xiangyu's face looked a bit unpleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, with that looks, you dare to call him handsome?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Xiaoxiao glared at him: \"Why not? I can call him whatever I want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, of course you can.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xiangyu turned his head to look, making sure that Su Ruochu and Chen Fan had gone downstairs and left, before he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me the truth, is that guy really Su Ruochu's fiance?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1257,"2026-06-05T15:06:59.735Z",1,"novelbin.me","a55343a26e00e60d0c6b2f946650f9f336c6f910b3d1b36be99bcdf401fc1c74","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-585","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-583",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
