Please Remember to eat Wedding Candy

At this remark, everything suddenly made sense to Chen Shuo. He was instantly under the scrutinizing gaze of his three roommates. He still did not know that at this moment, Su Xiyan was sitting upright in front of the tablet at home, watching this scene through the dashcam video feed installed in the car.

She turned up the volume a little, appearing to anticipate an answer.

Chen Shuo stood at the front of the car with his three roommates, conveniently all within range of the dashcam. The three roommates were incredulous at first, and a bit angry, but before Chen Shuo could respond, their rising temper had already been extinguished.

"Forget it. If you really like the campus belle Su Xiyan, we three brothers will swallow our tears and congratulate you!"

"Wow Chen Shuo, you hid this so deep! And you said she was a family member? I just realized, a spouse is also considered family!"

"Treat Su Xiyan well, she is my youth, my moonlight, my dream!"

Chen Shuo looked at his roommates' expressions shifting like the clouds and could not help but laugh.

"You guys really have wild imaginations!"

"You all know I like obedient and cute little lolis!"

"She's this kind of noble lady, not my type at all. Plus we have nothing in common. How could two people with no common language possibly spend a lifetime together? We'd just stare at each other blankly every day we live together."

After hearing Chen Shuo's words, the three roommates seemed to feel he had a point.

When they had first started school, the four of them were assigned to the same dorm room. That night when they stayed up talking, they inevitably spoke about what kind of girls they each liked.

At the time, Chen Shuo did in fact say he liked cute little lolis. He wasn't lying.

And looking at Su Xiyan, a third year senior sister, an aloof noble lady, she really wasn't Chen Shuo's type.

At this moment, watching the scene unfold remotely through her tablet, Su Xiyan's face was as calm as the surface of a lake.

She couldn't quite describe what she felt inside, but it seemed to be within her expectations.

But why did she feel a little disappointed?

Oh well, she should just focus on studying!

Su Xiyan was about to close the dashcam video feed on her tablet, but then heard Chen Shuo say to his three roommates:

"Do you guys know which fruit shop around here has the sweetest, freshest apples?"

Roommate Lu Chen asked: "Chen Shuo, don't you not really like eating apples?"

Chen Shuo replied: "She likes them, but her taste in selecting fruit is really not great."

Every ounce of flesh on Zhu Fei's body was honest and upright. He knew where to find the best eats: "On West Gate Street, there's a fruit shop run by a lady from the north. The apples are all transported from her hometown for sale. Completely natural, no wax, still very crispy and sweet!"

Chen Shuo patted Zhu Fei's broad back: "It's gotta be you! Thanks bro!"

Zhu Fei had a silly smile on his face: "Hehe don't mention it. Just treat us to some wedding candy when you get the girl."

Without thinking, as if possessed, Chen Shuo responded: "Sure!"

Zhu Fei: "???"

Lu Chen: "???"

Shen Xu: "???"

Chen Shuo: "Uh...anyway, I gotta head back first!"

"You guys should hurry back to the dorm too, curfew is coming up!"

"Let's chat more next time! See ya!!"

Chen Shuo didn't even give his roommates time to react before hopping in the car and immediately stepping on the gas to drive off.

In the car, Chen Shuo smacked himself in the mouth: "How could I just run my mouth like that? Saying nonsense!"

This dramatic scene was fully witnessed remotely by Su Xiyan.

Deny then admit? Which words were true in the end?

Though it didn't seem to have anything to do with her anyway. She wouldn't be interested in a guy like Chen Shuo.

Su Xiyan felt some inexplicable contradictions in her heart, but forcibly convinced herself before putting the tablet down on the sofa and continuing to do practice questions.

But after just a few questions, she felt a little thirsty again. She just couldn't calm her mind.

And so, Su Xiyan went to pour herself a glass of water, her fair feet padding lightly across the floor.

Returning to the sofa, Su Xiyan resumed her study queen question-answering mode.

Her gaze kept shifting towards the door, wondering when Chen Shuo would come back?

Not that she was looking forward to his return!

Mainly she wanted to try out the natural and organic apples he bought back to see how sweet they were.

About half an hour later, Chen Shuo's voice finally sounded from the door.

He was holding large plastic bags in both hands, filled with all kinds of fruit.

One big bag contained large apples giving off a sweet fragrance.

"Exhausting!" After changing his shoes, Chen Shuo put the shopping bags down on the coffee table, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Only then did Su Xiyan realize the tablet was still on the sofa! She quickly straightened up and casually moved it behind her.

"The fruit is all here, see what you want to eat." Chen Shuo walked towards the bathroom: "I'm going to shower first."

He was quite tired today indeed, and wanted to get to bed early after a quick shower.

When he came out of the bathroom, Su Xiyan's figure was no longer on the sofa.

Those two big bags of fruit were still sitting there.

Chen Shuo shook his head, murmuring to himself: "I've said it before, without me this household will fall apart."

"On such a hot day, how can fruit be left out and not in the fridge?"

Walking closer to the coffee table, Chen Shuo noticed the fruit bags seemed to have been opened.

Su Xiyan had probably taken a look at what fruit he bought.

Chen Shuo didn't think much of it and put the fruit into the fridge by category.

Lying in bed, Chen Shuo habitually checked WeChat Moments and his Penguin Space feed before sleeping.

He opened up Penguin Space and surprisingly saw Su Xiyan's profile picture.

Chen Shuo immediately perked up.

Su Xiyan, who never posted on her space, had actually made a status update?!

The sun rose from the west?

As always, Su Xiyan's words were precious, with the status containing just a few short words - The apples look pretty good!

Below was a photo of the apples Chen Shuo bought back.

She had even added a filter to the already bright red apples, making them look even more enticing, as if you could smell their fragrance through the screen.

She was the campus belle at their university for three years straight, after all.

Who knew how many people had set her posts to "specially follow."

The status had only been up for a few minutes, but was already full of swooning comments and likes -

"Senior sister's apples are so beautiful, as beautiful as you!"

"Goddess, I want to eat apples too, could you bestow one upon me?"

"So the campus belle likes to eat apples, why didn't you say so earlier? Let me call my parents right away and have them express ship a few boxes from our hometown!"

"Goddess goddess look at me! My family is from a famous apple producing region, we have every variety of apple imaginable."

"Stop it, I'm already booking tickets to rush to the apple region and start picking them tonight!"

"The one above, don't joke around. This year's apple crop isn't even in season yet! You'll be picking nothing but air?"

"..."

With her immense popularity, Chen Shuo's finger kept scrolling for a good while before he finished reading through all the simp comments.

Su Xiyan didn't reply to a single one, maintaining her icy goddess allure as always.

Chen Shuo was a little confused by what Su Xiyan was thinking.

She didn't eat the apples after he bought them back, but went out of her way to post about them?

A woman's mind, truly incomprehensible!

Rather than guessing blindly, better to just ask directly.

Chen Shuo's fingers danced across his phone as he swiftly left a comment on Su Xiyan's status update: "You don't even eat them after I buy them back, what's the point of posting about it?"
