Can not doing what one wants be called rebirth?

Chapter 249 247. Christmas Eve Couple

On Christmas Eve, Nanhu University was surrounded by romantic colored lights from top to bottom, and even the corners where no one had ever been were filled with a festive atmosphere.

“Merry Merry Christmas, Lonely Lonely Christmas
I want to bless someone but I don't know who to give it to
Love is tied up in a knot by us~"

The campus radio station is no exception, and they specially play a song on repeat, Eason Chan's "Christmas Knot".

It is very appropriate to play it at this time, and the audience will not have any objections even if they have different tastes.

"Teacher Guo said it's okay. Should we go back and change clothes?"

After returning to the backstage, Lu Jincheng leaned against the door, looked at his teammates' attire with a smile and asked questions.

"Yes, yes, yes! It's weird to wear this for photos! Then Jia Jia and I will go back and change clothes first."

Zhong Ruixi's eyes lit up, nodded, and pulled Ni Jiayun away from the backstage.

In preparation for the competition, everyone dressed in suits and ties, wearing old-fashioned uniforms.

It’s okay to go out for dinner on weekdays, but on a moment like Christmas Eve, which is full of ritual, it will greatly affect the photo effect.

"Lao Lu, where are we going to eat?"

Boys can change clothes much faster, it may not even take ten minutes.

Liu Yisheng asked cheerfully while scratching his hair in front of the mirror.

"Let's go to Optics Valley. It's close, we've already had dinner, and it won't interfere with your date with Ni Jiayun."

Lu Jincheng put on a long thin down jacket, looking refreshing, tall and handsome.

He held down his roommate's body, squeezed out a gap in the mirror, and put on a light beige wool scarf.

Of course it wasn’t the one Zhou Sining sent.

The awareness of risk avoidance has long been integrated into his blood.

Before leaving, he patted his forehead and stopped, taking out two gift boxes of different shapes from the table, as if he remembered something.

"Brother Lu, is this the holiday gift you prepared for Zhong Ruixi?"

Liu Yisheng stared at his roommate's actions, then glanced at the other gift boxes on the table, and blinked involuntarily.

The dormitory was empty except for these two people. Anyone with a little common sense could guess that the other two roommates must have gone out to celebrate the festival.

Holiday gifts are naturally part of the holiday.

"Ah."

Lu Jincheng expressed his affirmation.

“So many.”

Liu Yisheng couldn't help but sigh at Mr. Lu's magnanimity.

"It's a matter of reciprocity. There are other friends as well."

"Brother Lu, you said Christmas is tomorrow. Should I also give Ni Jiayun a gift? But I'm always worried that she won't accept it, so I'm very conflicted."

The two of them closed the door and walked out of the dormitory, and Liu Yisheng asked in a low voice.

"Let's not talk about whether they will accept it or not. I'm just going to ask you a very simple question."

Mr. Lu said with a smile.

He has never been interested in other people's love stories, but throughout the debate, Liu Yisheng did run around and put in a lot of effort.

It’s okay to just give a few words of advice.

"How to say?"

"If you were Ni Jiayun, when you returned to the dormitory, other roommates would have a lot of flowers and gifts on their desks, while you would be hanging your head with nothing in your hands. Would you feel a little envious?"

".I understand Brother Lu, I still have to send it!"

Liu Yisheng was silent for a few seconds, then showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

I am afraid of comparison in everything.

In this circle of friends, everyone is showing off their beautiful pictures in a nine-square grid. It is a lively, happy and beautiful Christmas Eve, but everyone has it but I don’t, which does make people feel a little lost.

"Just find an excuse to give it to her generously, such as saying that we worked together and appreciate her efforts, or that it was very hard to train with her. In short, I wish her a happy holiday."

Lu Jincheng added.

"Don't make it too expensive or too romantic. Some things are not suitable for you."

"The key to gift giving is to make the other person feel your heart and feel comfortable. Remember not to put pressure on the other person before the relationship is established. You can decide the balance yourself."

China is a country of etiquette, and has always emphasized reciprocity since ancient times.

Making people happily accept gifts and blessings is also a science.

"I've learned something new. Brother Lu still knows more."

"Let's go, they should have almost finished changing their clothes."

The two of them walked along the dormitory path in another direction, and the smile on Liu Yisheng's face never stopped.

"Fuck? Range Rover"

The smile quickly froze.

Mr. Lu took him to the parking lot and casually pressed the car key. The light of the black Land Rover Range Rover not far away lit up, and Liu Yisheng's eyes widened immediately.

"Brother Lu, is this the new car you just bought?"

"Yes, it's been a while since I bought it."

Lu Jincheng opened the trunk on his own, took a look at the things prepared by his assistant, put the gift box in, and closed it again with satisfaction.

“This must be worth millions, right?”

Liu Yisheng opened the passenger door and got in carefully.

He comes from a well-off family and is a boy. Although he cannot count all the top luxury cars, he knows the price of a Land Rover Range Rover.

"You usually park in the parking lot? That's too damn low-key."

As he got into the car, Liu Yisheng was immediately shocked by the smell of money.

As his roommate, he knew that Mr. Lu was not short of money.

Not only does he have a large number of beautiful women under him who are all rich, but he is also generous, sponsoring the welcome party and supporting the Baima Cup.

But for students, company profits are just legends. The impact is simply not comparable to the boss himself driving a million-dollar luxury car.

not to mention.
In contrast, Qiang Zhihao, who usually hangs his car keys around his waist and shows off his wealth by driving a BMW 3 Series, looks like a clown.

A real clown.

Your entry-level BMW worth three or four hundred thousand yuan is parked downstairs of the college and you talk about it every day to show off, but Lu Jincheng's Land Rover Range Rover worth more than one million yuan is quietly parked in the parking lot and he never mentions it!

He has bought the car for a long time, but he has never driven it downstairs and never mentions it at all.

If there weren't so many people at the dinner today and it happened to be a holiday, making it inconvenient to take a taxi and requiring driving, I'm afraid I still wouldn't know that he bought a Range Rover!

Looking at my roommate's nonchalant look, it seemed that in his world, buying a million-dollar luxury car was just a trivial matter.

Pattern, what is pattern?

Mr. Lu didn't answer. He slowly started the car and drove towards the girls' dormitory.

It's just a means of transportation, there's really nothing much to say about it.

Low key?

High profile?

He has absolutely no idea of ​​this.

Because truly successful people won't be obsessed with showing off to their classmates.

At the entrance of the girls’ dormitory of the School of Management.

"Hey, hey, hey, can you two show off your love later?"

Ni Jiayun crossed her arms, pursed her lips, and looked at Zhong Ruixi who threw herself into her boyfriend's arms, with a speechless expression on her face.

The girls who were preparing for the competition already had delicate makeup on, but they changed their style during the ten minutes or so it took to change their clothes.

Zhong Ruixi, who went out again, did not tie her hair into her signature high ponytail, but chose to let her hair fall around her cheeks. Her long eyelashes were clearly visible, and a pool of clear spring seemed to be dotted in her eyes.

She was wearing a knee-length black windbreaker, unbuttoned, high-waisted jeans and long black boots that have been popular for several years. This color is figure-flattering, and a while ago, the popular standard for making legs look longer was "wrist line over crotch", that is, when the wrist is hanging down, the position should be kept below the crotch.

Zhong Ruixi was holding the phone in one hand and was still able to cross the line easily with her wrist kept bent.

All in all, it's all legs at a glance.

"You've been waiting for a long time, right? Are you cold?"

The festive atmosphere is so strong that the campus is full of loving couples.

As soon as they met, Zhong Ruixi rushed over, put her arms around the man's waist, tilted her delicate little face and asked.

"It's not cold, it's not cold, drive, park over there."

Lu Jincheng pursed his lips.

"Give it to me, let me check if it's cold!"

Zhong Ruixi grabbed the man's hands, held them in her arms and blew on them back and forth, and the hot air soon enveloped her pretty face.

After just two moves, Ni Jiayun, who was watching blankly at the side, couldn't stand it anymore and quickly spoke out to stop him.

Stop for a moment, please.

Aren't we here for a debate team dinner to celebrate? How did you end up being a third wheel?

"Let's go, let's go pick up Teacher Guo."

As soon as they got in the car, the two women once again expressed their surprise at Lu Jincheng's new car.

But it was only a brief surprise.

Ni Jiayun doesn’t know much about the price of the Land Rover Range Rover, she just thinks it is a relatively large off-road vehicle with a cooler appearance.

Zhong Ruixi, who was sitting next to him, was obviously more concerned about other things.

"Are you being taken advantage of? You have to sponsor the White Horse Cup and raise the prize money for the best debater so high!"

".ah?"

Lu Jincheng answered while walking forward steadily.

"It's understandable that the total prize money is higher, because as long as our team advances, we can get a share, but the best debater."

Zhong Ruixi curled her lips and wrapped her arms around Lu Jincheng's headrest: "Our team obviously doesn't have that strength!"

"Five thousand yuan, and our own people can't get it, so aren't you just giving it away for nothing?"

"Participation is what's important. He wants to motivate everyone. Participation is what's important. Ruirui, you performed so well in this competition. What if you win the Best Debater award?"

Before the main person could reply, Liu Yisheng immediately took over the conversation.

Others may not know, but doesn’t Liu Yisheng know?
He had personally helped Guan Yongyi move house, and knew that the short-haired girl from the neighboring school was also very close to Lu Jincheng.

At the very least, we are good friends, and I guess there will be a gift from her in the gift box in the dormitory.

Combined with Lu Jincheng's exceptionally generous performance during the sponsorship, it is not difficult to see one fact.

There may be other reasons why the prize for the best debater is raised so high!

Liu Yisheng's emotional intelligence quickly came online, and he came uninvited to help his roommate out of the predicament.

"Yes, participation is the most important thing. To be honest, I think Ruirui's performance is not much different from hers."

Ni Jiayun, who was sitting in the back row, nodded and also expressed her affirmation.

"Hey, you're all wrong."

Lu Jincheng interrupted at the right time and said slowly: "Although the Best Debater award was won by someone else, Ruirui is still slightly better than her."

Everyone's eyes were focused on the driver's seat. Lu Jincheng slowly stopped the car at the gate of Shuguang Jiayuan Community, pulled the handbrake, waited for the counselor to come downstairs, and said with a smile.

"Kwan Wing-yee only knows how to fight alone throughout the competition, while Rui Rui knows how to unite her teammates and wins in popularity."

"Kwan Wing-yee's love is selfish and unconvincing, while Rui Rui's love is generous and full of respect, and her character is superior."

"Guan Yongyi got a large bonus and spent it all on his own, while Ruirui split the bonus and celebrated with his teammates right away. The winner is in the overall situation."

"This is the third victory, the advantage is on my side."

Liu Yisheng suppressed his laughter, clapped his hands vigorously and agreed: "Indeed, Ruirui won!"

"It makes sense!"

Ni Jiayun also started to giggle, her eyes narrowed.

"Go away, you are the only ones who are sweet-talkers."

Zhong Ruixi's eyes moved, and the corners of her mouth curled up a little, feeling very happy.

However, a few seconds later, she thought of another question.

"Hey, how do you know Guan Yongyi went shopping alone?"

"Well, she didn't go with her teammates. I guess."

Lu Jincheng cleared his throat to hide his guilty conscience.

"How come I didn't see it? You seem to be paying attention to me, huh?"

Zhong Ruixi frowned and was about to continue asking questions when the car door was opened.

"Sorry to keep everyone waiting."

Guo Minjie also changed into a brightly colored winter outfit, which was very different from her outfit when she was on the judges' panel in the afternoon.

When the counselor smiled, her lips were red and her teeth were white. Her long hair was piled up high with a few strands of hair naturally falling on her shoulders, showing her softness and casualness, like a gentle lady walking out of a classical painting.

A group of people, one car, headed straight to Optics Valley.

Guanggu is extremely lively on Christmas Eve. Thoughtful merchants will hang colorful lanterns in front of their doors, allowing the crowds to pass by, and even taking photos will add a bit of joy.

The area around the Italian-style street is a popular destination tonight.

There is a huge Santa Claus at the entrance of the Duomo Cathedral, and countless young couples stand together arm in arm, holding bouquets of flowers, taking commemorative photos.

Fortunately, Mr. Lu had booked the restaurant in advance, so we didn't have to queue up outside the door, and everyone happily had a celebratory dinner.

"How about going to sing a song?"

After eating and drinking her fill, Ni Jiayun was clearly still a little unsatisfied.

During this period of time, she has become good friends with everyone in the team.

"Have fun, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."

Guo Minjie wiped her mouth, picked up her bag elegantly, and was the first to leave.

Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong for teachers to have a meal with everyone on this day.

But if you don't go back after dinner and affect the second half of the date, it would be a bit tactless.

Of course Guo Minjie would not do such a thing.

"Teacher Guo, shall I take you there?"

"No need, just send Xiao Zhong back peacefully."

She just looked at Lu Jincheng meaningfully, smiled, waved her hand, and left the restaurant.

"Well, we're leaving first."

A few minutes after Guo Minjie left, Liu Yisheng finally found the opportunity to break in.

He winked at Ni Jiayun a few times, and the latter finally responded, nodded blankly, and followed him out.

The two pairs of men and women seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding in the air.

It was not until he and Zhong Ruixi were walking on the pedestrian street again that he finally regained some of the festive atmosphere that belonged to couples.

For example, the little kid who was selling things on the street just now was running around with a big bouquet of flowers in his hands, and he didn't stay with the crowd for a second.

It would be different if they went back to being two people holding hands.

"Brother, can you give me a bouquet of roses?"

A round-faced little girl timidly grabbed the corner of Lu Jincheng's clothes, looking very pitiful.
