Chapter 40: A Young Lady’s Passion Is To Eat (2)
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: Milkbiscuit
“…”
To think that it was still related to food!
Was he dreaming?
With such thoughts in mind, Lin Jiage backed out from [Yao Loves Ice Cream]’s Moments page and entered his older sister Lin Jiayi’s page.
— I finally bought it. The picture was a Hermes bag.
— These lipstick colors really aren’t bad. The picture was a huge array of MAC lipsticks.
— The weather’s not bad, so I came out to take a walk. The picture was a selfie of his older sister.
— The sweet reminiscence of a greeting from a familiar face after years of separation, but that’s something that could never happen to us. The fourth year of your departure.
This should be the Moments page of a normal girl!
Did that unintelligent young lady know nothing other than eating? That image was so unique that he could hardly find any words to describe it!
Unique… that adjective sounded a little familiar to Lin Jiage. Frowning, he suddenly recalled how on the taxi to the research lab, he’d thought of Soft Bun yelling at him, saying that he might starve to death. Back then, he seemed to have used the word ‘unique’ to describe her as well…
At that moment, exhaustion finally hit Lin Jiage, and he put down his phone and shut his eyes.
How weird. Why did he think of Shi Yao while he was in [Yao Loves Ice Cream]’s Moments page?
In a state of semi-sleep, he hazily thought that given [Yao Loves Ice Cream]’s gluttony, could she be a fatty?
…
The afternoon of the following day was G University’s anniversary celebration.
As a renowned school within the country, G University was filled with all kinds of talent. As such, exciting programs were lined up one after another for the school’s anniversary celebration.
By the time it concluded, it was already five-thirty in the afternoon.
Shi Yao was thinking that it was finally time to take off and have dinner at the canteen, but before she could stand up, the emcee on the stage suddenly spoke up once more, “Fellow students, please remain seated for a moment longer. We have prepared for you all a special easter egg as part of the anniversary celebration. Now, allow us to welcome the organizers who brought us such exciting programs back-to-back: third-year Math Faculty student, Lin Jiage, and third-year Art Faculty student, Qin Yiran!”
Qin Yiran seemed to have expected this. The moment the emcee made the announcement, she stood up from her seat and walked to the stage with a faint smile on her lips.
Even on normal days, Qin Yiran was a beautiful sight on the school campus. Today, she had specially made some effort to dress up, and this made her look even more stunning than usual. Many male students below the stage clapped ecstatically for her.
On the first row, a frown appeared on Lin Jiage’s face.
It took the urging of those around him before he finally stood up and made his way to the stage as well.
His sour mood didn’t affect his image at all. Many female students began screaming excitedly at seeing him.
The emcee waited for the duo to stand in position on the stage before continuing, “Student Lin and Student Qin, please greet the students below first.”
Qin Yiran shot a glance at Lin Jiage, and seeing that the latter had no intentions of speaking, she stepped forward with a smile. “I am Qin Yiran. Pleased to meet you all.”
The emcee turned to look at Lin Jiage, but the latter continued to remain silent. Left with no choice, the emcee could only urge him on, “What about Student Lin?”
At the emcee’s prompting, Lin Jiage nonchalantly gestured with a slight nod at the crowd.
The emcee knew that it would only make the situation awkward if he pushed him too far, so he didn’t force Lin Jiage to speak up anymore. Instead, he continued, “Student Lin and Student Qin are famous figures on our campus, so I believe that everyone is rather curious about them. The easter egg we have prepared is a short interview with the two of them.”
“Our first question is: between the two of you, who contributed more ideas to the school’s anniversary celebration?”
