From the initial excitement to gradually feeling disappointed, Jiang Chen searched back and forth several times. All the new students were supposed to appear on this list, but there was no trace of Yuan Chenchen's name at all.

Lunch was tasteless. Hao Xiang was busy with his junior, while Lin Siyu was suddenly called away by someone. Jiang Chen found a random place to sit alone, persistently staring at the list of new students, unwilling to give up.

The cafeteria at Z University has appeared on several Weibo hot searches, not because of its terrible food, but because of its highly acclaimed dishes. It has gained a reputation online, where going to Z University's cafeteria is equivalent to experiencing food streets from all around the country. Students from other schools envy this, but for Z University students, it is a dilemma. Most people have to maintain a slim figure, so they must strictly control their diet.

However, Jiang Chen belongs to the type that never gets fat, even if he eats a lot, his abs will never turn into excess fat.

Many people looked in his direction repeatedly, but he was already accustomed to it and had no intention to pay attention to them now.

"...Jiang Xuechang, can I sit here with you?" A girl wearing a cropped top asked shyly.

Jiang Chen ignored it and pretended to agree. In fact, there were still quite a few empty seats in the cafeteria. It was obvious what others were thinking.

Suddenly, cries of surprise resounded from all around.

"Ke Chen actually came!"

"Is it because of what happened on the forum yesterday? No way! The two most popular guys in school appeared together!"

"Why did Ke Chen come here?"

"Sitting directly beside Jiang Chen? The girls just sat across from him earlier..."

After comparing them, I feel like Ke Chen is even more handsome!

......

Hearing the discussions, Jiang Chen reluctantly lifted his head. He had already made up his mind to avoid Ke Chen from now on. However, others deliberately refused to let him do so and even voluntarily sat next to him.

Especially when someone discussed his appearance compared to Ke Chen, Jiang Chen felt very displeased. Those people hadn't seen the petty side of Ke Chen yesterday, nor were they aware of his extremely corrupt character. Jiang Chen didn't think Ke Chen was particularly handsome. What's so attractive about just having two eyes and a nose?

Jiang Chen had almost finished his meal. He didn't have much of an appetite today, but if he left directly, in front of so many people, would they think he was backing down? As an older student, how could he possibly fear his younger juniors?

Jiang Chen could only force himself to pretend as if nothing was amiss, staring at his phone screen to divert his attention. In reality, he couldn't bear to look at the list he had searched through countless times now.

What's even more exasperating is that the girl who was originally sitting across from Jiang Chen moved to a seat next to him, facing Ke Chen directly...

The girl who was shy and coquettish towards him just a few seconds ago, quickly changed her mind. It's really unbelievable.

Jiang Chen may seem calm on the surface, but deep down his heart is already in turmoil.

After several minutes passed, Ke Chen still hadn't finished eating. Jiang Chen was running out of patience. Was he a pig? It's taking so long! Jiang Chen had planned to get up after Ke Chen left, but it seems like that idea has to be temporarily abandoned.

The surrounding seats were almost full, but looking ahead, there were few people. It was unclear whose charm it was. Jiang Chen ignored Ke Chen directly, picked up the leftover plate and put it in the recycling bin. But immediately afterwards, someone placed the plate on top of his.

Jiang Chen is now certain that Ke Chen did it on purpose! Jiang Chen hasn't even gone looking for trouble with him, but he actually came looking for trouble on his own accord!

"Don't follow me!" Jiang Chen turned around fiercely. He was already in a bad mood, unable to find Yuan Chenchen, and now he had encountered such an unlucky person.
