Film and Television Overview: Starting from the Same Window

“I haven’t been back for a few days, so I came to check on you.” Zhou Shengchen nodded and went straight to his bed.

"Haiyang, you should be very familiar with Nancheng. Do you know any places suitable for an autumn outing?" Lu Qiaochuan asked Xiao Haiyang.

Upon hearing Lu Qiaochuan's words, Yu Hao suddenly realized, "That's right! Haiyang, you've been here for two years, four semesters, and you've been on at least four autumn outings!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shengchen looked at Yu Hao speechlessly: "Idiot, how could there be four autumn outings in two years?"

Xiao Haiyang glanced at Yu Hao, that idiot, speechless, then squatted down to look at the places Yu Hao had searched for on the computer that were suitable for an autumn outing.

Upon first glance, Xiao Haiyang frowned: "Brother Hao, what kind of nonsense is this? Have you ever seen a school trip with spa services?"

"Why can't we have that!" Yu Hao, a beauty enthusiast, retorted indignantly.

"Go away!" Xiao Haiyang snorted irritably, picked up the notebook next to him and quickly wrote down three places. Then he said to Lu Qiaochuan, "I've been to all three of them, and they're not bad! The third one is more cost-effective, but the environment is worse."

At this point, he pointed at Yu Hao and continued, "There's a young lady here. If you don't want to make a toilet for her right away, choose the first two."

Lu Qiaochuan chuckled, picked up his notebook, and asked Xiao Haiyang, "So, which of the first two do you think is better?"

"You and Lin Luoxue can just make a decision!" Xiao Haiyang said nonchalantly.

After saying that, he walked towards his bed.

Lu Qiaochuan stayed where he was, then suddenly turned to Zhou Shengchen and asked, "When I went to the cafeteria, I saw you sitting across from Zhong Bai. Is she alright?"

"What's wrong with Zhong Bai?" Yu Hao couldn't help but ask when he heard Lu Qiaochuan's question.

Zhou Shengchen said casually, "It's nothing. I started humming a song after eating my third bowl of rice!"

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Yu Hao asked again, "What's wrong with Zhong Bai?"

Lu Qiaochuan said, "She's just hiding the fact that she ate too much!"

Zhou Shengchen smiled.

In the afternoon tea room, Ren Yifan looked at Zhong Bai, who was patting his stomach and humming a song, and asked in confusion, "How much did you eat for lunch? Why are you still humming?"

"A bowl of rice!" Zhong Bai said casually.

Ren Yifan gave him a look that said, "Who are you kidding?!"

Zhong Bai glared at Ren Yifan and said unhappily, "I'm in a bad mood, what's wrong with eating more?"

At this moment, Zhou Shengchen and Lu Qiaochuan walked over.

Zhou Shengchen had a calm expression, while Lu Qiaochuan had his head down, looking preoccupied.

Upon seeing Lu Qiaochuan, Zhong Bai quickly patted Ren Yifan on the shoulder: "Help me up, my back is a little numb!"

Ren Yifan glanced at the two people looking over, gently shook his head, and helped Zhong Bai up.

Upon arriving at the tea house table, Zhou Shengchen found a seat and started playing on his phone, while Lu Qiaochuan stood next to Zhong Bai. Neither of them spoke, and they just stood there.

Seeing that his only two friends, who used to be inseparable, now only remain silent when they meet, Ren Yifan felt uneasy.

So he slammed his hand on the table and said, "Gentlemen, our tea house only has two activities: sitting and chatting. But Brother Zhong, you and Mr. Lu are both on strike. Are you trying to add striking to your third activity?"

Upon hearing this, the two slowly sat down.

Glancing at the other person out of the corner of his eye, Lu Qiaochuan broke the silence first: "Zhong Bai, did you receive the mass text message?"

"received!"

Zhong Bai bit his lip and said calmly.

At this moment, Bi Shisan and his commune member's little follower, the girl with glasses, returned from their walk.

Bi Shisan instructed An Jie: "Although you're going on an autumn outing with your classmates for the next two days, don't slack off on club activities. Remember to come here for a walk at 5 p.m. sharp!"

The girl with glasses handed the backpack to Bi Shisan with a reluctant expression: "Okay, senior brother."

Hearing their conversation, Ren Yifan asked the three people beside him, "Autumn outing?"

Lu Qiaochuan understood what Ren Yifan meant: "This is a class activity, I can't bring you!"

Ren Yifan immediately felt bad. He said bitterly, "Forget it, it's not a class activity, and you guys aren't even including me!"

Zhong Bai quickly denied it: "How could that be?"

Ren Yifan continued, "Don't you two think that the three of us talk less in a week than we do in half a high school Chinese class?"

The two fell silent instantly.

Because what Ren Yifan said was true, without a single lie mixed in.

"President! I need to ask for leave early!" Ren Yifan suddenly shouted.

Zhou Shengchen glanced at him indifferently: "Our club doesn't require leave; you can leave anytime you want."

"Ren Yifan, where are you going?" Lu Qiaochuan asked, puzzled.

“Take the subway!”

Ren Yifan said expressionlessly.

"Where are we going?" Zhong Bai asked.

"Whatever!" Ren Yifan shrugged, his voice low. "I'm just sitting with random people anyway, I want a change of scenery!" With that, he picked up his bag and left.

Then, the tea house fell silent again.

Suddenly, Lu Qiaochuan said, "Meet at the school gate at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

“It was mentioned in the text message,” Zhong Bai said calmly.

"Buzz buzz buzz!" Lu Qiaochuan's phone suddenly vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Lin Luoxue calling him.

He glanced cautiously at Zhong Bai and hesitated before saying, "Zhong Bai, Luo Xue called me; she might have something to say. Besides, I still have a lot of luggage to pack, so I'll be leaving now."

"Oh!" Upon hearing the name "Lin Luoxue," Zhong Bai's eyes immediately dimmed.

Lu Qiaochuan: "You should go back and pack up early too."

"Oh!"

"I'm leaving now, goodbye."

"goodbye!"

After Lu Qiaochuan left, Zhou Shengchen turned to look at Zhong Bai and noticed that her eyes were slightly red.

"How about I turn around and you lie down and cry for a while?" Zhou Shengchen whispered.

"I won't cry." Zhong Bai glared fiercely at Zhou Shengchen, then changed the subject, "Why didn't your girlfriend come to the event again?"

Zhou Shengchen said, "She's afraid of getting sunburned, so she's not coming."

"Just because she's afraid of the sun doesn't mean she can skip it. What right does she have to not come? Who gave her permission not to come?"

"Who does she think she is? Does she think she can just not come whenever she wants? What gives her the right? Tell me, what gives her the right?"

Seeing Zhong Bai's unparalleled tears welling up, Zhou Shengchen didn't argue with her, but simply remained silent.

Chapter 115: Nie Xingchen, the White Bone Demon

Zhong Bai glared at Zhou Shengchen: "Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you usually very talkative?"

"Zhou Shengchen, you're a scoundrel! You're a heartless scoundrel! You and Lu Qiaochuan are the same kind of scoundrels! You two... Waaah!"

???

Zhou Shengchen felt incredibly wronged. When did he become so eloquent? How could he possibly have fallen to the same level as Lu Qiaochuan?

Honestly, he really wanted to argue with Zhong Bai, but seeing her crying with her head on the table, he felt too embarrassed to say anything more.

Ten minutes later, Zhong Bai stopped crying, and Zhou Shengchen kindly handed him a pack of tissues.

"Thank you, I'm going back now." Zhong Bai took the paper, turned around and left.

Zhou Shengchen shook his head, packed up the table and chairs, and prepared to leave.

But then, his phone suddenly rang.

"Xiao Ai?" Zhou Shengchen looked at the caller ID and quickly answered the call.

"Zhou Shengchen, come out for coffee."

"Where?" Zhou Shengchen asked with a smile.

“The Yunmeng Coffee shop not far from your school,” Jing Xiaoai said.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shengchen sent a message to Huangfu Shumin and then walked out of the school.

Yunmeng Coffee is not far from the Communication University of China, about one or two kilometers away, which is about a 20-minute walk for the average person.

Zhou Shengchen, however, could drive there in just eight minutes.

In fact, if it's not peak time, three minutes is enough.

When Zhou Shengchen arrived at Yunmeng Coffee, Jing Xiaoai had not yet arrived. Zhou Shengchen immediately reserved a window seat, sat down, ordered a coffee, and waited quietly.

At the same time, he casually observed his surroundings.

It must be said that the interior environment of Yunmeng Coffee is quite nice, and the decoration is also very sophisticated.

Fresh and elegant, simple and warm – that was Zhou Shengchen's first impression.

Because it is located in a university town, the environment here is beautiful and the air is very fresh.

This is a place that cannot be compared to shops in the bustling city center.

In addition, the atmosphere here is also excellent.

Zhou Shengchen couldn't help but nod in approval. It was clear that the owner of Yunmeng Coffee was a thoughtful person.

However, when Zhou Shengchen's gaze swept out the window again, he suddenly paused.

“That’s…?” Zhou Shengchen frowned slightly as he looked out through the glass.

Across from the coffee shop, he saw Jing Xiaoai, but next to her was a tall, beautiful woman. Zhou Shengchen had seen that woman before, only on television in his previous life.

"Another character from a movie or TV series, but I wonder who it is?" Zhou Shengchen thought to himself.

A few minutes later, Jing Xiaoai and the beautiful woman walked into the coffee shop together.
