As soon as Ye Shen entered the dorm room, he was quickly surrounded and pressed against the door by his roommates.
“Brother Ye, was it our goddess who just sent you back?”
Ye Shen looked at them in displeasure and the roommates who pressed him instantly felt a bit wimpy.
“What are you afraid of! The three of us are more than enough to overpower him! Restrain him properly, if he doesn’t clearly tell us the truth today, we won’t easily let go of him.”
Since the boy standing at the front sounded so certain, the other two boys immediately agreed.
However, Ye Shen didn’t give them the chance and directly lifted his leg to kick the person next to him instantly sweeping him to the ground and dragging the other two boys in his fall in passing.
Although his skills were average, Ye Shen hadn’t been idle for the past few years, and his strength was more than enough to deal with the three in front of him.
“Ouch!”
“Brother Ye, let’s stop! Don’t fight!”
“We were wrong! We were wrong!”
The room quickly became chaotic and echoed the three boys’ pitiful screams begging for mercy.
Ye Shen indifferently threw them away and sat back in his seat to turn on his computer.
The three defeated roommates curiously leaned forward again: “Brother Ye, you haven’t answered my question.”
Ye Shen glanced at him and answered nonchalantly: “Mm.”
The three roommates narrowed their eyes and started gossiping: “I told you it was her. There are few people who can afford to drive luxury cars at school. Plus, she’s the only one who changes her car once a month.”
“Brother Ye, how far have you progressed with the goddess?”
“…… ” Ye Shen silently tapped on his keyboard without answering the question.
“Brother Ye …… could it be ……”
“Aiya, Brother Ye, you may not be anxious, but we’re all anxious for you! It’s our lifelong wish to marry you off into a wealthy family!” (TN: ‘Haomen’ means a wealthy aristocratic family, rich and powerful.)
Ye Shen gloomily lifted his eyes: “Marry me off to a wealthy family? Hmm?” (TN: ‘marry off’ is a verb used as ‘marry off a daughter to her husband’s family’.)
The three roommates panicked after their slip of the tongue and quickly squeezed the guilty boy’s shoulder before slapping their tights and joking: “Our brother Ye himself will become a wealthy family, hahahaha, don’t mind us, we’re just talking nonsense, just nonsense.”
Ye Shen pushed away the computer and face them: “Are you guys done with work? Have already prepared all the necessary documents for the next meeting the day after tomorrow?”
“Of course! Brother Ye, don’t worry about our work!” One of the boys confidently patted his chest to assure him.
Jokes apart, when it came to business, they had a very serious attitude.
After talking about work for a while, one of the boys brought back the topic, “Brother Ye, you really don’t want to marry into a wealthy family?”
“There are a lot of people relentlessly pursuing the goddess. I even saw someone sending her flower bouquets the other day.”
Ye Shen glared at him and the boy quickly reassured him, “Don’t worry, the goddess didn’t accept it.”
“Brother Ye, ah, it’s not that we’re not confident about you, after all, you’ve known her for the longest and you’re also the closest to her, ah! But if you don’t act soon, the goddess will really belong to someone else.”
“You’re not anxious, but we’re bystander and we get anxious just by watching.”
Ye Shen rubbed his eyebrows in irritation, “She doesn’t seem to have that kind of feeling for me.”
He had tentatively tried to gauge out how she felt towards him many times, and it didn’t seem like she had that kind of meaning towards himself.
The three roommates immediately sat across Ye Shen and sharply questioned him as if he was being trialed: “Have you ever confessed to her?”
Ye Shen shook his head.
But he hinted at her many times……
“How do you know the goddess doesn’t like you without confessing your feelings?”
“……”
“Brother Ye, girls like to be chased. You’re not doing anything, could it be you’re really waiting for the goddess to chase you?” (TN: chase or pursue girls as in courting them.)
“……”
“The goddess isn’t your usual everyday girl! You have to take the initiative! Do you know how to take the initiative?”
“……”
“Let’s make a plan for you, ah! We’ll definitely make your confession successful!”
“……”

“Chu Zheng, someone came looking for you.” Father Ji knocked on Chu Zheng’s room as she was reading a book, “It seems to be a senior from your school.”
“Too late, not meeting.”
Father Ji: “……”
He didn’t say anything as her father, why is she the own sensibly refusing?
“Ahem, the person came looking for you at home, go down and see, perhaps there’s an emergency?” At first, he was worried that she would do something wrong or participate in shady gatherings. But ever since Chu Zheng went to university, she just spent all day at school all day and directly came back home at night. She didn’t even attend any parties or gathering.
