Can't it be true love?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't always look at others with your feudal perspective.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he suddenly changed his tone and grinned at everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brothers, I truly envy her. If any of you know any single female bosses in their 40s, you can introduce them to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brothers, I really don't want to work hard anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sentence made everyone laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Jie, I think you're really hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We don't have anyone in their 40s, how about an auntie in her 50s?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Jie glared, \"Watch your words. How can you call her an auntie? She's my old baby.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Xiaoshuai gave a thumbs up, \"Looks like you're really not picky about food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three girls next to them giggled, Song Linlin whispered to Sun Hao's girlfriend Xiao Yu: \"Don't mind him, he always talks nonsense like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan ignored these guys' nonsense and turned to ask Han Xu beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How's graduate school? Have you found a girlfriend?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The good-natured Han Xu nodded a bit shyly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. She's also a graduate student in our major.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan's eyes lit up: \"That's great! Remember to bring her next time, let us all meet her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xu smiled sheepishly: \"I'll ask her next time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who pursued whom?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xu scratched his head awkwardly: \"She... pursued me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A round of teasing calls erupted from the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan applauded with a smile, \"Not bad, not bad. Looks like our Old Han's excellence has finally been discovered.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you two get married, make sure to let me know. I'll give you a wedding gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xu waved his hand awkwardly: \"That's still far off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chen Fan teased: \"I think you two will definitely end up together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, the girl actively pursued you. It shows she approves of you as a person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And Old Han, I know your personality well. You're simple-natured, good-tempered, study well, and definitely the type who would never give up in a relationship. I have high hopes for you two to go all the way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on. Let's have a drink.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Xu felt a bit embarrassed by the praise but raised his glass to clink with Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After they drank, Luo Wenjie suddenly smiled bitterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So in the end, I'm the only single one left in our 519?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Wu Di smiled wryly from the side: \"Who says you're the only one? There's still me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Hao was shocked: \"What do you mean? Don't you have Su Qing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you break up with Su Qing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Di's face reddened, looking a bit awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a long story, like a child without a mother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ma Xiaoshuai suddenly raised his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone... I have something I'm not sure if I should say now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Say it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Xiaoshuai put down his chopsticks, glanced at his girlfriend, and then spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's like this. Tomorrow, all the people from Linlin's dorm will arrive. Should we... have another gathering with our two dorms?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sentence made everyone fall silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Di's expression was complex, while Brother Jie looked indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan asked: \"It seems the girls from Linlin's dorm still hold a grudge against our 519. Shouldn't we ask the girls' opinions on this matter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Linlin spoke softly: \"I asked yesterday. They said they don't mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the girls don't mind, then of course we don't mind either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Ruochu whispered an explanation to Xiao Yu: \"They were paired dorms in university.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Yu nodded: \"I heard about it from Sun Hao before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Di hesitated for a long time, but finally gritted his teeth and asked Song Linlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know what time Su Qing's flight is tomorrow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Linlin looked at him: \"Can't you ask her yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Di looked a bit awkward: \"I asked her. She only agreed to meet me to talk things over, but she won't let me pick her up at the airport.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Linlin shook her head: \"Sorry, I promised Su Qing not to tell anyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Wu Di getting anxious, Chen Fan quickly held him back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it. You'll see her tomorrow anyway. Some things are better discussed face to face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Di dejectedly picked up his wine glass and downed the remaining half in one gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan arrived early at the agreed place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the dining place was no longer a five-star hotel, but an inconspicuous small restaurant across from the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place was suggested by Wu Di last night after discussion among the 519 guys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this restaurant was where their dorm and the 326 dorm had their first joint dinner during their paired dorm activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same restaurant, the same floor, the same private room...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone understood why Wu Di arranged it this way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after graduation, could everyone recapture that youthful innocence and friendship from their first joint activity?\u003C\u002Fp>",1296,"2026-06-05T15:07:00.403Z",1,"novelbin.me","4e748c31ff516e00bae0479c5c159e11d84a4ac22afe0384ed0d5af484755dbe","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-677","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-675",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
