Who Would Fall in Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 33: Destined Encounters Will Happen

By the way, didnt you say you were bringing your roommates?

They went shopping and might take a while to get here.

Zhou Chao couldnt help but lean forward and asked Hong Yan, Is your roommate pretty?

Hong Yan sneakily glanced at Jiang Qin, her cheeks slightly flushed, Yes, shes much prettier than me.

Really?

Really, youll see when they arrive.

As they were talking, the kitchen had finished preparing the dishes, which the waiter brought to the table one by one, along with eight bottles of beer.

Perhaps because the restaurant was too busy, Jiang Qin couldnt find a bottle opener and resorted to slamming the bottle caps open against the edge of the table.

Bang

Ren Ziqiangs eyes widened, Jiang, thats quite a skill.

Jiang Qin waved it off, Nothing special, just a practiced hand.

Hong Yans eyes sparkled slightly, her eyelashes fluttering, Thats from Ouyang Xiu, a great literary figure of the Song Dynasty, in The Oil Seller. Jiang Qin, you can even apply classical literature?

?????

Jiang Qin was momentarily stunned, thinking to himself that this was a stale internet joke from the future. He remembered seeing it every time he skipped the opening of an anime on a small online platform. Besides, there was also Nothing special, just an automatic transmission.

Now has this phrase not yet become clich?

Jiang Qin subconsciously glanced at Hong Yan, his brows slightly furrowed.

This girl seems to have some incredible filter for him

I think my roommate is here, Ill go fetch her.

After some idle chat, Hong Yan left her seat. Zhou Chao and Ren Ziqiang immediately couldnt hold back anymore, their straight backs slumping as they each grabbed Jiang Qins arm and wouldnt let go.

Jiang, start teaching us, were all ears!

Jiang Qin struggled to pull his hand free, Youre overthinking it, Im not even into dating.

Cao Guangyu couldnt help but be moved, Arent you interested in such a beautiful girl?

Its not that Im not interested, I just think dating is a waste of time.

Zhou Chao couldnt help but pout, Jiang, Im not making this up, Hong Yan definitely has feelings for you.

Jiang Qin was surprised, You can tell?

Of course, the way Hong Yan looks at you, its like shes melting. And she smiles every time you speak to her, isnt it obvious?

Looks like we cant eat together anymore

Zhou Chao: ?????

Ren Ziqiang casually continued the conversation, Old Jiang, Hong Yan just said her roommate is even prettier than her, you should let her introduce us.

Jiang Qin gently shook his head, Hong Yan is very emotionally intelligent. Shes very considerate when speaking, so her saying her roommate is pretty might not be true. Be careful later, dont say anything inappropriate.

Really?

I havent seen her, just guessing, but its likely.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yan reappeared in the restaurant, followed by two girls.

The girl on the left wore a floral dress, revealing smooth, fair legs. Her face was radiant with an enchanting charm, tall and striking in stature.

The girl on the right, while slightly less striking in appearance, was still beautiful and carried an air of dignified grace.

Cao Guangyu, Ren Ziqiang, and Zhou Chao all widened their eyes, thinking Jiang was just spouting nonsense. How could he say they werent pretty? The girl on the right might be slightly less so but was on the same level as Song Qinqin, and the one on the left was certainly no less beautiful than Hong Yan.

At that moment, Jiang Qin was also stunned, realizing that sometimes, coincidences like those in novels do happen in real life.

Let me introduce, these are my roommates, Chu Siqi and Wang Huiru.

Chu Siqi stared at Jiang Qin, feeling as if they were worlds apart.

Wang Huiru, too, was surprised, unsure why Jiang Qin would appear at Hong Yans dinner party.

After all, she had arranged many meetings between Chu Siqi and Jiang Qin, but he always declined, claiming he was too busy. This unexpected encounter made it impossible for them to avoid each other.

Soon, both regained their composure and silently sat next to Hong Yan.

Chu Siqi remained silent because she was overwhelmed and unsure of what to say, while Wang Huiru did so considering Hong Yans feelings, not wanting to create an awkward situation.

How about it, my roommates are pretty, right? Hong Yan asked with a suppressed smile.

Ren Ziqiang and Zhou Chao immediately nodded, Beautiful, are you guys from the legendary campus beauty dorm?

I wouldnt dare claim to be a campus beauty, but our Siqi here might just be one.

Then does Chu have a boyfriend?

Upon hearing this, Chu Siqi bit her lip, her gaze involuntarily shifting to Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin, with an expression of neither sadness nor joy, nodded politely and then began to focus on his meal, disengaging from the conversation, as if it had nothing to do with him.

This distant and indifferent attitude made Chu Siqis breath catch, and a wave of sadness surged from the depths of her heart.

Throughout the entire summer vacation, they had exchanged less than ten sentences. Having finally met again in a strange city, she was treated like a stranger, which was hard for anyone to bear.

You once liked me, liked me so much.

But now, why cant I even get a smile from you?

Wang Huiru silently observed the two, feeling she needed to clarify something. She leaned closer to Hong Yan and whispered, Yanyan, which one do you like?

Hong Yans cheeks suddenly reddened, Im just here to meet a friend, dont misunderstand.

You spent an hour getting ready before leaving, and changed your outfit five times. Is that a misunderstanding?

Hong Yan hesitated for a while before speaking in a lower voice, Alright, its him, Jiang Qin.

Wang Huiru remained silent for a long time before speaking, What do you like about him?

Hes different from any other guy Ive met.

It turned out that everyone knew how great Jiang Qin was, except for Siqi. Wang Huiru had a bad feeling but didnt know what to do.

Ren Ziqiang and Zhou Chao, completely oblivious to the tension, continued to be overly attentive, insisting the girls order whatever dishes they liked.

Cao Guangyu was overwhelmed. While he didnt mind being generous, he was the one paying the bill! As a rich second-generation, he cared about his image and couldnt directly express his concern. Plus, Hong Yans roommates, especially Chu Siqi, were indeed beautiful, matching Hong Yan in attractiveness.

He realized that Hong Yan was interested in Jiang Qin, so he probably didnt stand a chance. After all, a girl chasing a guy is like a veil separating them. But if he could develop a relationship with a beauty of the same caliber, that would be a story worth telling.

Chu, do you drink?

No, thank you.

What about your favorite dishes? Shall I order some for you?

Chu Siqi shook her head again, this time not even bothering to speak.

Cao Guangyus eagerness was met with indifference, leaving him feeling extremely frustrated. Was the disparity in life this obvious and painful?

Lets eat first, we can talk later.

Jiang Qin suddenly spoke up, passing the chopsticks to Hong Yan.

It was just a friendly gesture, without much meaning, but Chu Siqi couldnt hold back any longer, feeling a piercing pain in her heart, and her eyes filled with a mournful look.

Jiang Qin was supposed to like her, those gentle and considerate moments were supposed to be hers alone.

She couldnt bear it any longer.

Jiang Qin, you said we would end things amicably, so why have you suddenly appeared before me?

Chu Siqi looked at Jiang Qin, her words silencing the entire table.

Jiang Qin paused while picking up food, then looked up reluctantly, Its just a coincidence. I had arranged to have dinner with Hong Yan, but I didnt know you were roommates. Its too accidental.

Chu Siqis temper flared up, If I say you are, then you are. How dare you deny it?

I have something else to do, you guys enjoy your meal.

Jiang Qin truly detested this kind of entitled attitude. If I say you are, then you are? He thought to himself that she should be a doctor at a fertility clinic for such miraculous claims.

He placed his chopsticks on the plate, gave Hong Yan an apologetic smile, excused himself to the others, and then got up from his seat.

Do you know each other? Hong Yan, still trying to make sense of the situation, looked somewhat lost.

Jiang Qin paused briefly, then nodded indifferently, Yeah, high school classmates.

Not just classmates, you also said you would love me forever! Chu Siqis voice trembled with sadness at his understatement.

Meanwhile, Cao Guangyu, Ren Ziqiang, and Zhou Chao were all stunned, struggling to comprehend what had just happened.

What just took place?

Is Chu Siqi also involved with Jiang Qin?

Did Jiang Qin just silently outsmart us again?

TL: Damn this book is pretty good imo
