Boss Lu: A reborn life is destined to be without regrets!

"Are you guys drinking?"

Xu Ya turned her head, her eyes shifting towards Zhong Ruixi, seeking her opinion.

The behavioral logic of women is vastly different from men, with a greater emphasis on social interactions and companionship.

Especially in certain environments, for girls new to the environment or those who are more introverted, doing what everyone else does can provide a sense of security.

For instance, when at school, girls often go to the restroom in groups, a habit stemming from either conformity or a herd mentality.

Although Xu Ya kind of wanted to drink, it wouldn't mean much if she were the only one drinking in this setting.

"Huh?"

Zhong Ruixi raised her head, her gaze first glanced at Lu Jincheng, then turned back to Xu Ya and nodded.

"Drinking a little is fine, but let's drink less."

Seeing that the influential individuals from Dorm 203 had agreed, Ni Jiayun and Qiu Xue also had no objections, and Qiang Zhihao took the initiative to stand up and pass a bottle to everyone, filling their glasses with beer.

"Come on, today I'm the host, thanks to Lao Lu for making this opportunity possible, allowing our two dorms to gather together. We all belong to Management College, let's consult each other more on academic matters, interact more in life, and communicate more in our emotions!"

Qiang Zhihao was the first to stand up, toast everyone, and, having been frequently taken to dinners by his family, his toast was very practiced.

"I'll drink up, the ladies can drink as they please!"

He tilted his neck back, downing the drink in his glass.

"Well said!"

Among the freshmen, there were not many boys who could express themselves as generously and fluently as Qiang Zhihao. His speech had impressed the four girls quite a bit.

Naturally, everyone supported by finishing the drinks in their glasses, and the atmosphere opened up with various topics coming up.

"Qiang Zhihao, you talk so well, your class must have voted you as class leader, right?"

Xu Ya said with a cheerful smile.

She asked this because when selecting a class leader in her class, she, who had shown herself well at the freshman welcome party, was unanimously elected.

"Actually, I'm the class leader of Class 2, so please bear with me in future matters."

Saying this, she raised her glass toward Qiang Zhihao.

"Uh..."

Qiang Zhihao hesitated, not following to raise his glass, and sheepishly said, "No, our class leader is Lao Lu."

"Really?"

Zhong Ruixi's eyes sparkled with a touch of surprise.

Lu Jincheng became the class leader?

He was unassuming in high school, how had he actively decided to run for class leader?

What puzzled her the most was, even if he had changed his mind to run for it, he hadn't attended the military training. How had his classmates still chosen him under those circumstances?

"Ah, so he's your fellow villager; I was really blind just now."

Xu Ya turned around with a smile, raising an eyebrow at Zhong Ruixi and tilting her glass toward Lu Jincheng.

"Here's to you."

Lu Jincheng nodded at Xu Ya and clinked glasses with her.

"You just said, was your class leader chosen by voting?"

Qiang Zhihao, initially feeling good about his performance, was taken aback by Xu Ya's casual question.

He pulled out a pack of Yu Xi cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and deeply inhaled. The smoke passed through his lungs with a biting sensation, as he seemed to think of something.

"Right, wasn't yours?"

Xu Ya nodded her head.

"Is your counselor named Guo Minjie?"

Qiang Zhihao asked.

"Yes, Director Guo is handling two classes this year, just ours and Class 1, right? Otherwise, why would I say 'please bear with me' just now?"

As soon as Xu Ya finished speaking, Qiang Zhihao and the other two roommates simultaneously looked towards Lu Jincheng.

This son of a...

Still saying there's no nepotism, outright special treatment!

Though everyone joked about Lu Jincheng having connections, they didn't expect that being in charge of two classes, the others were democratically elected, and he was indeed set up as the crown prince!

"What's with those expressions?"

"Our Class 1 didn't have a selection process; Teacher Guo decided directly."

Qiang Zhihao nodded his head toward Lu Jincheng's direction, the meaning was clear without words.

"Wow..."

"Please take good care of me in the future if I ever need help, class monitor Lu~"

"No, you have to ask Rui Rui first, you'll need her to speak on your behalf."

Then, the girl's dormitory chimed in, making a racket.

Lu Jincheng just smiled and didn't explain, concentrating on peeling the crayfish.

College is actually just another small society; nobody hates nepotism, they just hate it when it doesn't benefit them.

"By the way, you and Rui Rui are high school classmates from the same place. Did you specifically choose our university for her?"

The girls' gossip wouldn't stop, and soon they were focusing on Lu Jincheng.

Zhong Ruixi pursed her lips and her eyes fixed on Lu Jincheng, extremely curious about his response.

Although she could vaguely sense it, the answer from the person himself would certainly be different from her guesses.

"You're thinking too much; it was just an unexpected coincidence. I had no idea how many points she scored when I chose my preferences."

Lu Jincheng shrugged, politely responding to Ni Jiayun's question.

Zhong Ruixi's eyes dimmed, and the smile on her lips slowly faded, her hand tightening under the table.

You clearly knew.

You definitely asked around secretly!

Why would you lie!

The usually proud Zhong Ruixi started getting a bit angry.

"That so, but I still feel like you have a really special connection, getting into the same university from high school - how many can manage that?"

Ever since starting university, Ni Jiayun was a little fan of Zhong Ruixi.

Girls didn't just like handsome guys; they couldn't resist a beautiful woman either.

Regarding the high school classmate often mentioned by Zhong Ruixi, she was the first to secretly ship a couple in the dormitory.

Seeing Lu Jincheng in person today, she couldn't help but feel that urge to root for them immediately.

They look so good together! Be together!

"Yeah, everyone is from different corners of the earth, and being able to sit here and eat together today, I feel that is also fate."

Lu Jincheng raised his glass with a smile, expertly avoiding giving away too much.

Funny, can Mr. Lu show in front of you that he's interested in Zhong Ruixi?

Properly revealing your needs when interacting with girls is a deep art.

In most cases, it's best for men not to reveal their needs too early.

Like boiling a frog in warm water, as mutual understanding deepens and intentions and feelings grow, then it's time to reveal your needs to push the relationship forward.

If a man expresses strong affection too soon, revealing needs and purposes prematurely, it will make the man less appealing.

In his past life, Lu Jincheng hadn't grasped this point.

But when one's own value is high enough, appropriately showing needs can actually enhance one's attainability.

For instance, if Edison Chen were interested in a girl, not revealing interest might make her feel unqualified due to his high status, thinking he isn't serious or secure enough to open up to.

In such cases, it might be better to show some interest, like initiating a conversation or asking her out, and wait for the girl to respond positively.

Just like how Mr. Lu is more proactive with Zhou Sinin than with Zhong Ruixi.

Every little detail matters.

Hearing Lu Jincheng's response made Zhong Ruixi even angrier.

She wasn't a fool; she could hear the evasions, resistance, and sense of boundaries in Lu Jincheng's words.

What do you mean by that?

And what about your actions the other day?

Since the start of term, Lu Jincheng's actions had inevitably led Zhong Ruixi's thoughts astray.

Touching her face, holding hands, listening to love songs.

Although Lu Jincheng never asked if he could, he always took those liberties...

These actions crossed normal social boundaries, weren't they things only couples did?

"Rui Rui, Qiang Zhihao just said he paid the bill earlier, how about we go sing and treat him later?"

After eating their fill, Zhong Ruixi went to the restroom and fiercely washed her hands.

Returning to her seat, Xu Ya whispered into her ear.
