An Rui did not give Zhou Li a chance to refuse and said crisply, “I have to treat you to a meal.”


  Before Zhou Li could say anything, An Rui put the electronic piano on the school’s SUV. After letting her classmates know, she ran to Zhou Li and took out her phone to check the nearby restaurant. “What do you want to eat?”


  Zhou Li had been classmates with An Rui for three years and more or less understood her personality.

  She was as lively and cheerful as Ye Tian, but she was also stubborn and domineering.

  It was hard for others to change their decisions.

  Zhou Li sighed. “Uncle Zhou’s noodle shop.”


  “You’re only eating a bowl of noodles when I treat you?” Then, she remembered that Uncle Zhou’s noodles were a place he often went to during his three years of high school. He must have some feelings for it. She smiled. “Alright, I’ll treat you to a feast next time.”


  An Rui walked to the back of the bicycle and sat on it lightly.

  Zhou Li was slightly stunned.

  Seeing that he was not moving, An Rui looked up at him. “Uncle Zhou’s noodle shop is still at Nanli. Do you want me to walk there?”


  An Rui was 1.66 years old and was very slender, especially her arms. They were so thin and fair that she could not feel anything when she sat behind the bicycle.

  She often posted on her social media that she was not eating at night, saying that she was on a diet.

  Zhou Li rode his bicycle over. It was An Rui’s first time sitting behind him and she asked nervously, “Am I heavy?”


  Zhou Li shook his head. “Too thin.”


  “I can’t help it. The girls in our music school are all elites. I have to keep up with the trend!”


  Zhou Li said warmly, “If you don’t eat dinner for a long time, it will cause your stomach to contract and your stomach capacity to decrease, causing stomach problems, malnutrition…”


  An Rui dug her ear and laughed. “Oh, I almost forgot that you’re studying medicine. I’m scared. If I don’t eat dinner in the future, I’ll block your feed.”


  Zhou Li froze slightly.

  The moment she was distracted, a young girl riding a skateboard came towards her. Seeing that she was about to collide with someone, An Rui hurriedly reminded her, “Senior Zhou, look at the road. What are you thinking about?”


  Zhou Li hurriedly turned his head to avoid the girl in front.

  But when she turned, An Rui, who was behind, fell forward due to inertia and she subconsciously hugged Zhou Li’s waist.

  Zhou Li was wearing a white t-shirt and there was a faint soapy smell on him, as clean and fresh as grass.

  “Are you okay?” Zhou Li stopped the bicycle and looked back at An Rui, who had hit her forehead on his back.

  An Rui’s thick eyelashes looked long and dense under the sun and she glared at him with her almond-shaped eyes. “Why is your back so hard?”


  Zhou Li was speechless. “Is there anything soft on your back?”


  “You’re still saying that I’m thin? Look at you, you don’t have any flesh on your waist or back.”


  An Rui had always been carefree and did not realize that there was something wrong with hugging Zhou Li’s waist.

  The girl complained as she rubbed her forehead. Her skin under the sun was as fair and smooth as a peeled egg. Unlike Ye Tian’s charm, her facial features were delicate, her face small and her chin sharp. She did not belong to the type of beauty who looked good at first glance, but she looked prettier the more one looked at her, giving people a clean and fair beauty.

  Zhou Li looked back at An Rui, but quickly looked away.

  As he rode forward, the breeze blew and his ears slowly heated up……

  The bicycle drove into an alley.

  They stopped in front of Uncle Zhou’s restaurant.

  The high school students were still in class and there were few customers in the restaurant.

  Uncle Zhou knew Zhou Li and An Rui and welcomed them warmly.

  They sat down opposite each other.

  “Do you still want beef noodles like before?”


  Zhou Li nodded and seemed to have thought of something. He said to Uncle Zhou, “She doesn’t put chili.”


  After Uncle Zhou entered the kitchen, An Rui looked at Zhou Li curiously. “How did you know that I haven’t been eating chili recently?”


  “You said on your feed two days ago that there’s a blister on your ulcer.”


  An Rui patted her head. “That’s right.”


  She smiled. “I didn’t expect you to pay attention to me!”


  Zhou Li froze. “The other students will also pay attention.”


  An Rui took a sip of water. “I know you’re a warm and considerate genius who is very good to everyone.”


  Seeing that An Rui did not think too much about it, Zhou Li secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

  Soon, Uncle Zhou came over with two bowls of noodles.

  Zhou Li handed An Rui the chopsticks that were disinfected with water.

  Before eating, Zhou Li took off his rimless glasses and put them aside.

  An Rui took two bites and looked up at the boy opposite her.

  This was the first time they had come out to eat alone since they met.

  In the past, she either had Shen Mingxiu or Tiantian by her side.

  Although Zhou Li’s grades were good, he was not sunny or gloomy. He was dressed simply and An Rui’s attention was on Shen Mingxiu, so she did not look at him properly.

  Zhou Li lowered his head and focused on eating the noodles. He ate faster than her, but did not spill the soup. There was no sound of slurping the noodles, and his mouth was not full of oil. The feeling he gave her was that he was refined and clean.

  His hand that was holding the chopsticks was slender and fair. His palm was thin and he did not have long fingernails. They were cut neatly and clean. The small crescents on his fingernails represented that he had a good body.

  His face was very thin and his skin was slightly fair. His facial features were handsome and his eyes looked very dark when he was not wearing glasses.

  “Senior Zhou, I found that you’ve become a lot more handsome after going to university!” An Rui teased him. “After going to university, there should be many girls confessing to you, right?”


  Zhou Li had already finished his noodles. He wiped the corner of his lips with a tissue and put on his glasses. When he heard An Rui’s words, he seemed to be at a loss. “I didn’t notice this.”


  Actually, many girls had asked him for his contact details, but he would always reject them with the excuse of studying.

  “You just don’t like to talk much and don’t know how to please girls. How are you going to find a girlfriend in the future?”


  “I’m not thinking too much for now. My family background is not good, so I should focus on my studies.”


  There was a faint smile on his handsome face. It was not cold or sunny, but had a spring-like gentleness……

  After eating, Zhou Li sent An Rui back to the music school.

  An Rui was in a good mood today. Thanks to Zhou Li, she won the competition against Wang Jiaojiao.

  Along the way, she was smiling and humming a song.

  When they arrived at the entrance of the music school, An Rui patted Zhou Li’s shoulder. “This meal doesn’t count. I’ll treat you to a big meal next time. Call me when you’re free.”


  “The noodles are delicious. There’s no need for a feast.”


  “We’re such good classmates, why are you so polite to me?” An Rui made the decision. “Let’s do it next weekend. I’ll send you a message when I book a restaurant.”


  Without waiting for Zhou Li to say anything, An Rui skipped into the school.

  Zhou Li only pushed the bicycle back after she disappeared from his sight.

  He was about to get on the car when a sports car stopped in front of him.
