“……” Ah.

  She left earlier than planned that morning…. Wang Yihan suddenly felt a little apologetic inside.

  In fact, she originally wanted to give him more, but  she hadn’t brought so much cash.

  Wang Yihan averted her eyes, and her voice was a bit weak, “Just…. well…. to support you so you’d be more comfortable….”

  “……”

  Fuck.

  Qin Fang’s face darkened and flushed.

  He took a deep breath and wanted to open his mouth when he saw out of the corner of his eyes, standing next to Wang Yihan, was a young girl with her large eyes opened so wide they were perfectly round.

  Who looked a little familiar.

  He said in a steady voice: “If you’re here for the interview, go in.”

  Not waiting for Lu Yuanyuan to speak.

  Wang Yihan had completely forgotten her original purpose for coming here. She also turned her head to look at Lu Yuanyuan: “Yuanyuan, you go in first. I….”

  Her eyes turned back to Qin Fang: “I have something to do.”

  -

  Lu Yuanyuan confusedly went into the music classroom.

  The lights in the classroom were brighter than the corridor’s. The moment she entered, she squinted slightly to adjust before she was able to see.

  The room was large. Half of it was filled with various musical instruments, and a table was set up directly opposite the door.

  She closed the door and walked over to the table with her head down.

  When she stopped, she stood still and raised her eyes.

  “…… Senior?!”

  Her mind was still concentrating on the conversation between Wang Yihan and the senior outside. She was still confused after thinking so long, and didn’t look carefully at who was inside the classroom when she came in.

  It was actually Senior Su.

  She looked at the boy in a black shirt and black pants in front of her, with sharp features and a pure white complexion.

  He was also looking at her.

  After a long time of staring at each other, he nodded his head, “Mm.”

  She hesitantly said, “Senior, you’re…. the music club’s….”

  “President.” He answered.

  “……”

  Lu Yuanyuan’s mouth unconsciously opened, making a very surprised appearance.

  Su Lin: “……” Did you need to be so surprised?

  Lu Yuanyuan was shocked for some time. She said, a little tongue-tied: “Ah, ah, hello, president.”

  He tilted his head to look at the little girl’s somewhat stupefied expression. The corners of his lips hooked a little and casually asked: “What’s going on outside?”

  Lu Yuanyuan instantly came to life.

  She had just struggled to keep her ears open and eyes wide, trying to figure out the relationship between the two.

  But…. was unsuccessful.

  It was like they were talking in riddles the whole conversation. She really didn’t understand, but was especially curious. She simply couldn’t wait for someone to answer her doubts.

  “It’s like this. My roommate came with me, but she seems to know the senior outside the door….”

  “……?”

  “As soon as they met, they both said…. said what the hell at the same time.”

  “……”

  All right.

  She then told the whole story. Su Lin also didn’t speak, just quietly listening.

  “Then, my roommate asked that senior.” Lu Yuanyuan suddenly paused, looking like she found the next words were embarrassing to say.

  Su Lin didn’t understand why she suddenly stopped, “Asked what?”

  “…… Um, I’m not cursing, these were their words.” The little girl suddenly spoke extremely fast.

  Then her large, dark eyes looked at him. Without any expression on her face, she then said, “My roommate said: ‘Ah, you’re also a fucking student at C University, hm?'”

  Su Lin was stunned: “……?”

  Lu Yuanyuan was still speaking: “Then the senior said: ‘Aren’t you a fucking student too, hm?'”

  “……”

  “Then the senior asked my roommate, what did you mean by the thousand yuan, hm? My roommate said….” At this point, her expression suddenly became extremely puzzled: “She said, because it’s to support you more comfortably???”

  Lu Yuanyuan told Su Lin all the bits and pieces she could remember, and then eagerly stared at him, looking for answers: “Senior, senior, what were they talking about??”

  “……”

  In fact, after listening to these words from Lu Yuanyuan, and in addition to….

  On Friday night, Qin Fang seemed to have…. for the first time since coming to college, stayed out all night.

  What Qin Fang did, he could probably guess.

  But.

  The shock he should’ve had was completely overshadowed by another mood.

  What Lu Yuanyuan demonstrated wasn’t quite the same as the roar he heard from inside the classroom.

  The little girl always spoke with a somewhat dainty ending to her words, automatically adding a lot of onomatopoeia to her dialogue. Obviously, the words were spoken in an emotionally-charged tone, but she used her soft voice to repeat it plainly.

  Moreover, without any expression on her face.

  The two sentences she spoke in a normal tone suddenly echoed again in his mind.

  “You’re also a fucking student at C University, huh?” and “Aren’t you a fucking student too, hm”.

  Su Lin tried his best to restrain himself.

  But still couldn’t hold back.

  Lu Yuanyuan watched the person in front of her listen to her confused words and pause for a moment. He then suddenly lowered his head and raised his hand to cover his eyes and she couldn’t see his face.

  But she could see his shoulders faintly trembling.

  Hm?

  Lu Yuanyuan took a step forward, her voice tinged with puzzlement, “…… Senior? What’s wrong with you?”

  “…… You, wait a moment.”

  Suddenly came his muffled voice.

  Lu Yuanyuan tried to figure it out for a moment, feeling as if he was…. trying desperately to hold back his laughter?

  Su Lin raised his head and looked at the time. It had been five minutes since she came in.

  Although he didn’t want to start interviewing so early, he also had to take into account that there were other people waiting outside.

  He cleared his throat, “Let’s start the interview.”

  “Your instrument-” Su Lin hadn’t finished his sentence when he was interrupted by Lu Yuanyuan.

  “I didn’t bring an instrument.”

  “……”

  Lu Yuanyuan suddenly took a step forward. Because of her height, she could prop her arms on the table without lowering her arms much.

  Su Lin’s gaze fell on her small arms that were as white as lotus roots and her soft voice entered her ears. Because it was deliberately lowered, it carried a bit of airiness.

  “I know that the harmonica isn’t one of the musical instruments that the music club accepts.”

  After she learned that Su Lin was the president, she suddenly seemed to understand the reason why she could pass the interview.

  A kind of enlightenment.

  Lu Yuanyuan was righteous: “Senior, this isn’t right.”

  “……”

  Su Lin’s heart froze.

  She was saying.… something was wrong with him?

  The young girl in front of him suddenly changed her expression.

  “Senior, even if we have a good relationship,” Her cheeks were slightly flushed, as if suddenly feeling a little embarrassed again, and her voice lost its confidence.

  Becoming soft.

  – “But…. how could you let me go through the back door!”

  Su Lin: “……”

 

The author has something to say.

Su Lin: We have a good relationship…. Good like buddies kind of good? :)

PSA; I’d like to say that when she adds hm or huh, it’s me trying to show that she adds little sounds at the end which is kinda like concluding her words by adding an’-ah’ to the end. For example, hey –> heya, hi —-> hiya. Like a softer, cuter ending to her words.

Honestly, I don’t really know how to translate certain nuances and phrases so they’re either translated literally or using the English equivalent. Usually I try for equivalent but when I have genuinely no clue (like today’s author note), I go super literal and hope no one calls me out on it.
