Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle - Chapter 193

“What are you guys planning to do on your date?” Chen Jiajia turned around, curious.

Gu Muxi was putting on her shoes and casually replied, “Of course, we’re going shopping for clothes. Stinky Feng said he’d take me to buy some new outfits.”

“Just… shopping for clothes? That simple?” Chen Jiajia looked skeptical.

Gu Muxi rolled her eyes, “Yes, it’s that simple. What else could we do?”

“You dummy, what kind of young couple only goes shopping for clothes on a date? What, are you going out with your parents?” Chen Jiajia spoke seriously.

“Of course, it’s about doing things that young men and women in love do!” Ding Ying, who was helping, sat up from her bed, raising her hand, “I know this one: eat, shop, watch movies! That’s what couples should do!”

“Answer… wrong!” Chen Jiajia immediately denied.

“Ah? Wrong answer? Then what’s the right answer?” Ding Ying looked puzzled.

Gu Muxi was also confused; she and Yi Feng usually did only two things when going out: browsing and eating, nothing more.

Lacking experience, she also didn’t know the correct answer.

Standing up, Chen Jiajia patted her chest, “According to my study from eighteen twisted romance dramas, if a guy invites a girl out and they don’t do something serious, how can they live up to their youth?”

“Eating, shopping, watching movies, those are just foreplays, and quite technically unskilled at that, hence widely used. The correct answer should be spending time in a closed space, being sweet and loving, like… going to a dance hall for a date.”

“Imagine, in the dim light of a dance hall, two people gently embracing, with soothing melodies in the ears, dancing rhythmically. How warm and sweet is that!”

“A lot of female protagonists in twisted romance dramas have dance scenes with the male lead!”

“After enough foreplay, then comes, hehe, doing what needs to be done!”

Hearing this, Ding Ying praised, “What a great idea, Sister Jiajia truly is the love guide master of our dorm!”

“Ha ha, thanks for the compliment, just the third best in the world!” Chen Jiajia said smugly.

Gu Muxi, covering her mouth laughing, “Then, Master of Love, Miss Chen Jiajia, where’s your boyfriend?”

Chen Jiajia’s smile froze…

“Ah, I wonder if my prince charming has even been born yet, what’s his name…”

Bringing this up left Chen Jiajia with only a deep sense of grievance on her face.

“But Xixi, you listen to me this time, I guarantee it’s foolproof, sure to skyrocket your relationship in one day!” Chen Jiajia spoke earnestly.

“One day? Skyrocket?”

Gu Muxi blinked in bewilderment.

Chen Jiajia realized she might have used the wrong idiom, then corrected, “Cough cough, it could also be called ‘One day, a thousand miles’!”

“Anyway, it means to fuel the fire of your relationship!”

Gu Muxi: “(；一_一)……”

“Jiajia, you’re supposed to be a top university’s brilliant student, what are these idioms?”

Ding Ying excitedly said, “Hey, Xixi, that’s a minor issue, the point is, Sister Jiajia is right! I think a dance hall date is great, really great!”

“See, even Ying thinks it’s good. After dancing, you can find a nearby hotel, inn, whatever, there must be many around!” Chen Jiajia snickered.

“Why go to a hotel? There are beds in the dormitory too.” Gu Muxi said, puzzled.

Chen Jiajia facepalmed, “Who said going to a hotel is just for sleeping?”

“Two young lovers, can’t they do what lovers do?”

“Then, sparks fly, burning fiercely!”

“Burn, burn fiercely, that’s youth!”

Gu Muxi’s cheeks flushed immediately, knowing what Chen Jiajia meant, then retorted, “What are you talking about! I don’t want that!”

Just the thought of it made her incredibly shy!

“Hmph~ I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m going out!” she said and grabbed her clothes to dash to the bathroom.

When she came back, she wore a white shirt and jeans, a style reminiscent of the ’90s Hong Kong fashion.

“Wow, decided to wear new clothes today?” Chen Jiajia teased.

Gu Muxi’s cheeks reddened, “Clothes are meant to be worn, why wouldn’t I?”

After that, she sat down at her desk to start doing her makeup.

Gu Muxi usually didn’t wear makeup, finding it a bit troublesome, only doing so when going out with Yi Feng.

After spending nearly half an hour, she finished her makeup, stood up, and said, “Sisters, I’m off to have fun~”

“Ok,” Chen Jiajia made a gesture.

Just as Gu Muxi was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something, looked back to see everyone busy with their things, not paying her any attention.

She sneakily walked back, opened the drawer, and put her ID card into her wallet…

After placing it, she blushed and quickly fled.

Downstairs of the female dormitory.

Yi Feng was already waiting at the entrance.

A young man with a slicked-back hairstyle, holding a heart-shaped box of chocolates, approached not far from Yi Feng, looking like two guardian deities as the entering and exiting girls cast puzzled looks at them.

“Hey, buddy, waiting for your girlfriend?” The young man, clearly bored, struck up a conversation with Yi Feng.

“Yes,” Yi Feng responded.

The young man came closer, proudly saying, “I’m also waiting for my girlfriend, my future girlfriend.”

Yi Feng tugged at the corner of his mouth, since when was there such a thing as a future girlfriend?

At that moment, Gu Muxi appeared at the dormitory entrance.

“Look, my future girlfriend is coming!” The young man was ecstatic, straightening his clothes.

He watched Gu Muxi intently, his expression nervous.

As he saw Gu Muxi walking towards him, his heart thumped wildly.

Is today my lucky day?

The young man stepped forward, offering the chocolates, “Hi, Miss Gu, I…”

But Gu Muxi walked right past him, plunging into Yi Feng’s arms.

“Stinky Feng, good morning~” Gu Muxi looked up, smiling sweetly.

Thud~

The young man stood frozen, watching Gu Muxi hug Yi Feng, his heart shattered.

“Good morning, little Xixi.” Yi Feng affectionately patted her head.

“Let’s go grab something to eat first, I’m starved~” Gu Muxi said, clinging to Yi Feng’s arm, coquettishly.

“Sure, no problem,” Yi Feng nodded, then glanced at the young man, “Buddy, this is my girlfriend, and she will be in the future too.”

With that, Yi Feng and Gu Muxi turned and left.

Watching their departing figures, the young man collapsed on the spot.

“Oh no!!!”

(Snowflakes fluttering, the north wind howling~)
