Chapter 143 Today is your birthday, isn’t it?

Translator: 549690339

After treating Ouyang Feifei, Luo Ziling had sweated quite a bit, so for the sake of maintaining his image, he decided to head back to his dorm room first to take a shower.

When he returned to his dorm, he was surprised to find that the three guys who lived there were not around, possibly out for dinner.

It was five-thirty, prime time for dinner.

Luo Ziling showered at lightning speed, dried his hair, and then made a call to Yang Qingyin.

This was the first time he had ever called Yang Qingyin, and as he dialed her number, his heart beat with a strange feeling, quite rapidly.

The call connected quickly, and Yang Qingyin’s pleasant voice came through the receiver.

“Senior Sister, may I have the honor of being treated to dinner by you?” Luo Ziling asked with a smile, “I’m so hungry I could eat a horse.”

“I’ve been waiting for you,” Yang Qingyin replied, slightly displeased, “who knew when you’d be free.”

“Shall we go now?”

“Sure, wait for me outside the east side gate!” Yang Qingyin agreed cheerfully.

Ten minutes later, Luo Ziling saw Yang Qingyin, who had noticeably dressed up for the occasion.

Today, not only was Yang Qingyin wearing glasses, but also a hat, and it wasn’t until she got close that Luo Ziling recognized the tall girl approaching him as Yang Qingyin.

“Doesn’t it feel a bit like how underground workers meet up?” Seeing Yang Qingyin’s get-up made Luo Ziling couldn’t help but joke, “What’s the secret code for today? ‘Tiger covers the sky above’ or ‘Pagoda suppresses the river demon’? ‘Yangtze River, Yangtze River,’ ‘I am the Yellow River, I am the Yellow River,’ if you hear this, please respond!”

Yang Qingyin couldn’t stop laughing at Luo Ziling’s joke. “Junior Brother, your secret codes are so old-fashioned. We should come up with something more innovative, like…”

Seeing Yang Qingyin pause, Luo Ziling quickly filled in, “Like what? ‘How much sorrow can one have? It’s like a warehouse full of oil.’”

“Are you into stocks too?” Yang Qingyin laughed even more joyfully, “Let’s go, before we attract a crowd!”

Luo Ziling also noticed that many people were watching them, and he quickly took Yang Qingyin’s hand and left the meeting place.

Yang Qingyin didn’t try to pull away, allowing Luo Ziling to lead her.

Hand in hand, the two talked and laughed as they left the school entrance.

“What kind of feast are you planning to treat me to?” Luo Ziling asked with a smile.

Yang Qingyin playfully responded, “Not far from the school, there’s a newly opened seafood restaurant. How about treating you to a seafood feast?”

Luo Ziling readily agreed, “Sure, I rarely eat seafood, so I will follow Senior Sister and have a good seafood feast today.”

“Have you thought about where you want to go for the National Day holiday?” Yang Qingyin changed the subject.

“I was just about to discuss that with you,” Luo Ziling looked at Yang Qingyin with a smile, “Everyone says that during the National Day holiday everywhere is crowded. Visiting popular attractions means joining a sea of people, and besides seeing heads, you won’t see much else. I’ve never experienced the National Day holiday, so I don’t know if what they’re saying is true.”

“Indeed, that’s the case,” Yang Qingyin nodded and then said with a playful look, “So, I want you to think of a good place, somewhere with no people yet fun.”

“That’s really a challenge for me,” Luo Ziling patted his head, looking a bit frustrated, “I’ve hardly ever traveled, so I’m not clear about the situation of tourist spots. I do know our little mountain village is scenic, and there’s a grassland where you can ride horses, but the journey is indeed too far. It would take at least four or five days for the round trip, and before you know it, the entire long holiday would be spent on the road.”

“So what’s your conclusion?” Yang Qingyin still looked at Luo Ziling with a mischievous expression, her hand not breaking free and still holding onto his.

“How about we go to a nearby grassland?” Luo Ziling ventured, “I did some research online and found that not far from Yanjing, there’s a place called Mulan Weichang, Bashang Grassland. The scenery is quite nice. I think that no matter how many people there are on the grassland, it won’t be too crowded. Tourists couldn’t possibly fill up the entire grassland, could they?”

Luo Ziling didn’t really care where they went to play. He didn’t mind the crowds, as long as he could go with Yang Qingyin.

But Yang Qingyin had her own agenda. She wanted to take the opportunity of going out to play to seriously observe Luo Ziling’s situation.

She believed in the view that traveling can reveal a person’s true character.

She wasn’t worried about any accidents happening while going out with Luo Ziling, even if Luo Ziling was highly skilled in martial arts, she wasn’t afraid.

Hearing Luo Ziling’s suggestion, she didn’t object but simply smiled and said, “You decide where to go. Just make a plan.”

Yang Qingyin agreed so readily, and without any hesitation, Luo Ziling was a bit surprised, but in the end, felt ecstatic.

He decided to look up more information when he got back and to make a complete travel plan.

Unfortunately, he had no experience in this regard, he could only ask those three guys in his dorm, and look up more information online.

With a smartphone that could access the internet, he could search for any information he wanted to know. After discovering this function, Luo Ziling fell deeply in love with the smartphone. Many things he didn’t understand could be solved with a quick Baidu search. He felt that this high-tech lifestyle had brought him great convenience.

Cao Jianhui in the same dormitory had a laptop, which was even more convenient for looking up information online. Luo Ziling also planned to get one for himself sometime.

During the conversation, the two quickly arrived at the seafood restaurant named “Southern” that Yang Qingyin had mentioned.

Before coming, Yang Qingyin had already made a reservation. After giving her name, the server led them into a rather exquisite private room.

The private room could accommodate at least ten people for dining, and the decor was very elegant. Upon entering and seeing the interior of the private room, Luo Ziling was quite surprised. Yang Qingyin didn’t explain anything and simply asked Luo Ziling what he wanted to eat.

Poor Luo Ziling, who had almost never eaten seafood, had no idea what to order when he saw the menu. He could only slightly embarrassedly push the menu towards Yang Qingyin, “You order, I really haven’t had seafood before. Whatever you like to eat, just order it. I’ll definitely eat it.”

Seeing Luo Ziling like this, Yang Qingyin didn’t say much, promptly ordered a few dishes according to the menu, and also asked for a bottle of red wine.

“No way, you want to drink?” Luo Ziling was very surprised to see Yang Qingyin ordering wine, “Do you like drinking?”

“I rarely drink,” Yang Qingyin shook her head, her face showing a hint of pink as she spoke, “Today I’m treating you to a fancy meal, so we have to drink a little wine.”

Luo Ziling sensed something unusual from Yang Qingyin’s different demeanor, thinking she must have a special reason for wanting to drink, and asked with a smile, “I’ll join you for a drink, but you have to tell me why you want to drink! I know there must be a reason.”

Yang Qingyin was surprised and pleased with Luo Ziling’s quick response, and she couldn’t help laughing, “You guess!”

Looking at Yang Qingyin’s charming face, Luo Ziling thought for a moment, and suddenly an idea popped up, he blurted out, “Today is your birthday, isn’t it?”
