Miss Lin is a hunky VTuber today?

The way this young lady acts arrogantly and wants to hit people is really unbearable.

Although she probably didn't do it on purpose this time.

Xu Lin squinted, silently complaining to himself about why he had teased her for no reason. Didn't he know that she was particularly shy in front of outsiders, and that when she was shy she would become arrogant, and when she was arrogant she would want to hit him?

"Youyue, where did you go just now?"

On the other side, Sister Yan skillfully prepared her own dipping sauce and was enthusiastically recommending the soul of hot pot dipping sauce to the three fourth-generation students. Seeing Xu Youyue arrive late, she asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered I forgot something and went back to get it."

Xu Youyue didn't say much, but calmly took out two small bowls from underneath and slowly prepared two identical dipping sauces.

"Okay, I understand."

Sister Yan's good mood vanished completely, or rather, it wasn't that bad. The feeling of eating candy was indeed sweet, but the subtle and wonderful emotions mixed in were hard to describe.

"Anyone who adds chili oil is a cult!"

"I can't believe you dared to say such inflammatory things in a hot pot restaurant."

The young lady squinted at the expressions of the people around her and complained.

"After all, the sesame paste, chive blossom, and red bean curd recipe is the classic one! What's wrong with saying it?"

Sister Yan also looked around and found that everyone around her was busy preparing their own dipping sauce and no one was paying attention to her, so she became firm again and looked righteous.

"That's just a custom in Liaoning, you can't even say Northeast, right?"

Having spent a lot of time with two people from Northeast China, the young lady, despite never having been to the Northeast herself, had a very deep understanding of it. Her sharp and accurate comments hit Yan Jie right where it hurts.

"But, but..."

"Alright, hurry up, I'm waiting to go back and eat meat."

"Oh."

Sister Yan fell silent.

That's the downside of arguing with your best friend who knows you inside and out. She knows you too well, and she can always shut you up with a single sentence.

"Hurry up and let's go back for some meat!"

Xu Youyue glanced at the trio of fourth-generation students again, and saw Shuangxue holding two bowls of dipping sauce. She then looked closely at Qian Huina, who was staring blankly at the condiment station, and realized what was going on.

"You've really worked hard."

Xu Youyue and Shuangxue exchanged a glance across each other, each holding a bowl of sauce in their left and right hands.

"It's alright, after all, I'm a boy."

"Well?"

Qian Daidai typed a question mark. She was still wondering what the dipping sauce was. She used to just wait to eat it.

"This is none of your business, go on your way."

Fengling grabbed Chiena's small hand and gave it a hard tug, sounding annoyed.

Can this clueless kid really do live streaming independently?

"Can we eat meat now?"

Chiena tilted her head, following closely as Fengling pulled her along, her little face full of anticipation.

"That's enough, that's enough."

Xu Youyue sighed.

Although her dazed personality is cute, being this dazed really makes people worry about whether she can take care of herself.

"Welcome back, the water's almost boiling."

Xu Lin stood up and led the two young ladies to their seats. When the young lady walked to his side, he naturally took a portion of sauce from her hand.

The wind chimes' eyes lit up.

Shuangxue placed the two bowls of sauce on the table before revealing a sunny smile.

"I've been looking forward to this for so long!"

This kid speaks with such a light novel-like tone.

Because he often argues with all sorts of silly netizens online, and is also a homebody, Xu Lin couldn't stand such a strong sense of humor. Luckily, he was wearing platform shoes when he went out, otherwise he would have ended up wearing sandals.

"Frost and snow".

Just before he sat down, the white-haired girl called out to him with a subtle expression.

"Ok?"

Keep it simple, keep your way of speaking simple.

"understood."

Shuangxue nodded seriously, not unhappy about Xu Lin's complaints. Instead, she cleared her throat and suddenly shouted out.

"Guys, let's cheer!"

Xu Lin was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

Can't this person just talk normally?! Switching from a light novel protagonist style to a corny, lowbrow vibe in an instant?! Don't your skills have a cooldown?!

"Could we have something more realistic and complete...?"

Even Sister Yan couldn't take it anymore and started complaining.

"Ho~ (rising tone), wakari curse him to death."

The sunny young boy scratched his head and spoke in authentic Tianjin-accented Mandarin.

"Shuangxue, where exactly are you from?"

Xu Lin couldn't help but ask directly.

"Oh, from Nanjing."

Frost and snow stopped playing around and answered honestly.

"Then how come you speak so many dialects?"

In the young lady's memory, Nanjing didn't seem to be a place known for its dialect or humor.

"Because my college roommates came from all over the country, including Fulan, Harbin, Tianjin, and one from Sichuan."

Ah, university dormitories.

What an amazing place.

Moreover, the distribution of members in the Frost and Snow dormitory is ridiculously absurd. People from these different places have gathered together, are they trying to compete to see which accent is the king of meme infection?!

"So, which university do you go to? Is it far from Yehai?"

There always needs to be something to talk about at the dinner table, so Xu Lin asked curiously while cooking the meat in the hot pot.

"I'll say a representative dialect phrase, and you'll understand."

Seeing this, Shuangxue was not intimidated and immediately prepared to demonstrate his dialect skills to Xu Lin. He raised his head and chest, took a deep breath, and raised his voice slightly, with a playful ending tone.

"Teacher~"

Goodness, it's from Jinan.

No wonder Shuangxue's accent is so wide-ranging; it's a massive dialect battle across all four corners of China!

"Where is Daidai from?"

Xu Lin was speechless at Shuangxue's accent. This girl had obviously practiced it because she found it interesting. Her accents from different places were almost indistinguishable when spoken separately, and her Mandarin was also very standard. However, he couldn't just talk to one person at the dinner table, so Xu Lin turned to look at Qian Huina, who was engrossed in eating.

"Ugh!!! Ugh!! Ugh!!!"

Then she choked.

Chiena is a girl with incredibly expressive facial expressions when she's not daydreaming. She has big eyes, and every move she makes is so expressive that when Fengling saw her like this, she thought she was about to die, and hurriedly poured her a cup of free barley tea.

Chiena took it and drank it all in one gulp. She had just breathed a sigh of relief when she belatedly realized that it was hot.

"Hoo! Ugh!!!"

It took quite a while to finish, and then the first thing Xu Lin said made him want to complain.

"I'm not stupid, senior! Why do you all call me stupid now? I have a name! And I'm not stupid at all!"

"So you were in such a hurry just to refute this...?"

The five people present all frowned at the same time, squinted, and stared at Chiena in perfect unison.

"I'm not stupid! I just get easily distracted!"

Being stared at by five pairs of eyes at the same time was a bit stressful, but our Qian Daidai was still tenacious and finished speaking with a spirit of not giving up until she achieved her goal.

Then it stuck out its little tongue to cool off.

Barley tea is always made with boiling water, so it's really hot right now!

[Fine, fine, whatever makes you happy.] *5

On the other hand, the other five people were also silently reciting in their hearts in perfect unison, and then they exchanged glances with each other.

It seemed as if a consensus had been reached.

Chiena is really clueless...

It seems that even with such a costly rebuttal, our Qian Daidai failed to achieve the desired effect!

. . . . . .

The happy times at the dinner party always pass by quickly, and in the end we still don't know which kind of good place could have raised such a silly girl as Chiena.

After sending the fourth-term students back to their hotel, Xu Lin parted ways with Miss Yan and Sister Yan, each heading home.
