"Luo in Luoyang".

The beautiful girl, Lin Luoxue, tilted her head and said softly.

“Oh, that ‘snow’ must be from the poem ‘Zhuanyingqu’ by the Tang Dynasty poet Dai Shulun, ‘Border grass, border grass, border grass all come, soldiers grow old. Snow clears south and north of the mountains, moon shines bright for thousands of miles.’” the young man continued.

After a long and rambling explanation, the character "snow" was finally revealed, which was so embarrassing it made one want to pick their toes.

"Uh……"

Lin Luoxue was completely dumbfounded. She never expected that the character "Xue" in her name could lead to such an unfamiliar line of poetry.

Zhou Shengchen's lips twitched, and he cursed the other party inwardly as a "pretentious show-off".

Seeing this, the young man felt a little embarrassed and chuckled awkwardly, "Is it the 'snow' as in 'snowfall'?"

"Yes!" Lin Luoxue nodded.

"You messed up..." The short-haired girl next to her made a gloating sound.

Hearing the short-haired girl's teasing, Lin Luoxue looked at her and asked, "And you? What's your name?"

“My name is Zhong Bai, and I’m Lu Qiaochuan’s good friend. We’ve known each other since we were kids.” The short-haired beauty named Zhong Bai glanced at Lu Qiaochuan, the male classmate by the window. “By the way, my seat is 17B. Legally speaking, you’re sitting in my seat.”

"But forget it, I don't want to be around that pervert Lu Qiaochuan."

"Brother, you were the one who said you didn't want to sit next to me, so Lin Luoxue switched with you," Lu Qiaochuan retorted somewhat indignantly after hearing Zhong Bai's words.

"Just call me Luo Xue," Lin Luo Xue said with a smile.

Call me Qiaochuan.

Lu Qiaochuan pretended to be very affectionate.

"Tell me to die!"

Zhong Bai pursed his lips and muttered softly.

The somewhat familiar scene made Zhou Shengchen frown, and memories in his mind quickly unfolded.

"The TV series 'Together Through Windows' is interesting." In just a moment, Zhou Shengchen remembered where he had seen this scene before.

"Together Through Windows" is one of Zhou Shengchen's favorite campus dramas, especially the eight-way love story in it.

In Zhou Shengchen's eyes, the relationships between the main characters are like a food chain, which is as interesting as it gets.

Li Shuci likes Xiao Haiyang, Xiao Haiyang likes Zhong Bai, Zhong Bai likes Lu Qiaochuan, Lu Qiaochuan likes Lin Luoxue, Lin Luoxue likes Bi Shisan, Bi Shisan likes Gu Yixin, and Gu Yixin likes Pan Zhen.

Of the eight people in the two dormitories, all but Yu Hao were caught up in this emotional food chain.

And standing at the top of the food chain is actually Pan Zhen, that two-timing scumbag from the directing class next door. Can you believe it?

Just thinking about their messy relationship is hilarious.

"Haha!" A young man holding a magazine next to Zhou Shengchen suddenly burst into laughter, disrupting Zhou Shengchen's thoughts.

Lu Qiaochuan glared at the man upon hearing his laughter, then turned to look at Lin Luoxue and said:

"Qiaochuan means bridges and mountains, and the bridge is as smooth as a rainbow in the sky. The character Luo in your name, as a noun, refers to a river that intersects at a cross. So our attributes are very similar..."

Chapter Seven: Crossing the River and Dismantling the Bridge, a Tiger Falling to the Plains

Before Lu Qiaochuan could continue, Zhong Bai interrupted him, saying, "By the way, my name is Zhong Bai, the 'Bai' in 'snow'."

"Did I ask you?"

Lu Qiaochuan turned to look at Zhong Bai, his eyes filled with a hint of resentment.

Did she ask you?

Zhong Bai retorted, unconvinced.

Zhong Bai's words immediately created an awkward atmosphere.

Lin Luoxue smiled gently and took the initiative to break the awkwardness: "Actually, Qiaochuan doesn't necessarily have to stick to ancient poems and such, they're too difficult to pronounce."

"Isn't interpreting 'Qiaochuan' as 'bridges and mountains' more majestic?"

"Bridges originate from mountains and rivers. In the future, when you mention your name to others, just say that it's about bridges and mountains, okay?"

Under Lin Luoxue's persuasive words, Lu Qiaochuan quickly nodded in agreement, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Seeing his beloved being so obsequious to other women made Zhong Bai very uncomfortable.

He immediately retorted, "Then Qiaochuan can also be interpreted as, interpreted as..."

She, who wasn't very good at Chinese, was at a loss for words for a moment.

"You messed up." Lu Qiaochuan suddenly mocked Zhong Bai, "That's why I always tell you to read more books. What are you doing arguing with people like this?"

Seeing Lu Qiaochuan bullying Zhong Bai, who was loyal to him, Zhou Shengchen shook his head slightly and interjected, "Qiaochuan can also be interpreted as crossing the river and then destroying the bridge, or a tiger falling into the plains."

“This brother is exactly what I was thinking.” The man next to Zhou Shengchen, who was holding a magazine, suddenly put down the magazine and reached out his hand to Zhou Shengchen.

"Hello, my name is Xiao Haiyang, the ocean, blue."

Zhou Shengchen gently shook hands and announced his name: "My name is Zhou Shengchen, the 'Zhou' of the Zhou emperor and the 'Shengchen' of the birthday tribute."

Then he looked at Lin Luoxue, a playful smile on his lips: "What do you think of my name?"

Lin Luoxue smiled slightly: "Very good!"

"I have a question," Xiao Haiyang suddenly said.

"Go ahead," Lin Luoxue gestured.

"You said a man's name should have a powerful feel, so shouldn't a woman's name have a feminine feel?" Xiao Haiyang said playfully.

“Of course,” Lin Luoxue said with certainty.

Xiao Haiyang then asked, "Do you think your name is particularly feminine?"

Lin Luoxue didn't answer, but instead asked Lu Qiaochuan on her left, "Do you think it's better to be feminine or tomboyish?"

“Feminine, I suppose!” Lu Qiaochuan interjected.

After hearing Lu Qiaochuan's answer, Lin Luoxue said in a teasing tone, "So, do you think I'm more feminine, or is your friend more feminine? Tell the truth!"

"This...this problem, it..."

Lu Qiaochuan glanced cautiously at Zhong Bai, wanting to say that Lin Luoxue was more feminine.

But he knew Zhong Bai well; if he said it, the other party would probably slap him immediately. So he stammered and dared not answer.

Zhong Bai frowned slightly and said to Lin Luoxue, "Don't make things difficult for him. It's because you have a womanly charm."

"is it?"

Lin Luoxue raised an eyebrow and smiled knowingly.

"I have two seats in another carriage, would you like to sit there?" Xiao Haiyang suddenly invited Zhong Bai.

Zhong Bai seemed somewhat disappointed by Lu Qiaochuan's reactions earlier, so he nodded in agreement.

Seeing Zhong Bai about to leave, Lu Qiaochuan said with some concern, "You really believe him? Who would buy three seats for no reason?"

"What's it to you?"

Xiao Haiyang's words immediately created a tense atmosphere, making it seem as if the two had some deep-seated grudge.

Zhong Bai felt that Lu Qiaochuan's words made sense, so he looked at Xiao Haiyang with some suspicion and asked, "You really bought three seats?"

"Not three, but four."

Xiao Haiyang corrected.

Then he pointed to the next carriage and said, "There was a young couple across from my seat over there. They started flirting as soon as they got on, and I couldn't stand it, so I came over. But it turns out this place is even worse than that one!"

"Zhong Bai, just sit here, we're almost at our stop," Lu Qiaochuan continued to persuade him.

Zhong Bai ignored Lu Qiaochuan and looked at Xiao Haiyang: "Help me carry this box."

"Do not talk!"

Before Zhong Bai could say which box was hers, Xiao Haiyang pointed to a colorful box and said, "I guess this one is yours."

Zhong Bai shook his head, indicating that it wasn't that one.

"Then, this one."

Xiao Haiyang then pointed to a pink suitcase.

Zhong Bai shook his head again.

There were only four suitcases nearby. Apart from the two that Xiao Haiyang just mentioned, there was only a black suitcase and a bright red suitcase left.

Xiao Haiyang hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the black box and guessed, "I think you would like black, right?"

Zhong Bai shook his head again, then pointed to the bright red suitcase and said, "This is mine."

Lu Qiaochuan grew somewhat annoyed as the two continued their back-and-forth conversation.

You see, it used to be Zhong Bai who talked about this and that in front of him, so he corrected her, saying, "She likes red."

In fact, Xiao Haiyang guessed correctly this time; Zhong Bai did indeed like black.

Zhong Bai only bought the red suitcase because her sweetheart, Lu Qiaochuan, likes red.

It's incredibly ironic that Lu Qiaochuan had been with her for so many years without knowing anything about it!

Xiao Haiyang didn't even glance at Lu Qiaochuan, but turned to Zhou Shengchen instead: "Brother, would you like to come along?"

"No."

Zhou Shengchen refused outright.

We'll be arriving at our destination soon; there's no need to keep changing trains.

Moreover, he could tell that Xiao Haiyang was only asking him a perfunctory question; the person Xiao Haiyang really wanted to invite was Zhong Bai.

Seeing that Zhou Shengchen refused, Xiao Haiyang stopped talking, picked up his bag and suitcase and led the way.

Zhong Bai followed closely behind.

"Hey, Zhong Bai!"

Seeing that Zhong Bai was about to leave, Lu Qiaochuan quickly stood up, trying to persuade him to stay.
