Chapter 732: Chapter 732

The metro was crowded, and the group they had started with had already been dispersed upon boarding.

Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi were lucky to have found a spot to sit as soon as they got on the train, tucking themselves into a corner.

On the other hand, Minal, Wei Zixuan, and Sun Yifeng had taken over a pole in the middle of the car.

Mu Mu and Yong Mu had also slyly positioned themselves in a corner, one closer to Huo Feng.

Yong Mu and Mu Mu, both inherently reserved, hadn’t yet integrated with the group, so they formed a pair of their own.

Fortunately, the two had been friends since childhood and understood each other well enough not to feel uncomfortable.

The journey was long; first, they took Line 15, then transferred to Line 8, with a total of 10 stops and about 40 minutes.

During this lengthy time, their group split into three factions throughout the metro, each engrossed in conversation...

At Minal’s end, the incessant topic of discussion between her and Wei Zixuan was... Huo Feng.

Despite having exhausted the topic, Minal couldn’t stop herself, "Sangzhi’s boyfriend is really handsome... I didn’t notice it when he wore the camouflage uniform, but today, in his own clothes, I think he could debut~"

As she spoke, Minal’s gaze repeatedly darted towards Huo Feng, unable to stop admiring his features!

Wei Zixuan also sneakily glanced at Huo Feng, truly a rare handsome face by any standard...

Especially after entering Tsinghua...

Although there are many males at Tsinghua, the quality of their looks is...

"Yeah, he’s definitely star material. Why doesn’t he go to the Central Academy of Drama or Beijing Film Academy?" Wei Zixuan whispered conspiratorially to Minal.

Minal nodded, "Why doesn’t he, right?"

Wei Zixuan elbowed Minal, "You haven’t gone either. With your grades, your looks, you could go to the Central Academy of Drama or Beijing Film Academy. Like Gulnazar... isn’t she from your ethnic group?"

Minal nodded, "Now that you mention it, I understand why he doesn’t pursue a career in acting."

Wei Zixuan asked, "Why?"

Minal raised a finger, "Because, if you have the grades for Tsinghua, why would you want to be a star? I thought at the time that I could rely on my intellect, compete on merit, and not just be a pretty face!"

Wei Zixuan nodded in agreement, "Makes sense. If all the good-looking people went into showbiz, the other professions would really be in a poor place. Look, Sangzhi and her boyfriend both went to our school, significantly elevating our school’s beauty standards, right?"

Minal: "Exactly. But he’s really handsome... I think, his single eyelids look so good..."

Wei Zixuan whispered, "I like his nose, so tall~"

The chatter of the two girls didn’t stop the whole time, making Sun Yifeng incredibly uncomfortable!

Unable to help himself, Sun Yifeng interrupted, "No matter how handsome he is, he has a girlfriend, okay? And his girlfriend is your roommate, so show some respect for Sangzhi."

"We didn’t mean anything by it,"

Minal retorted to Sun Yifeng, "We’re just appreciating a handsome guy! Just like how you guys look an extra time when you see a beautiful woman on the street!"

"Hey, I’m a big handsome guy right in front of you, and I’m still single! Why fixate on someone who’s taken, what’s the point?" Sun Yifeng argued, promoting himself.

However, this met with a dismissive look from both Minal and Wei Zixuan.

Minal said, "I think you should take a good look at Sangzhi’s boyfriend and think about the gap in looks between you two."

Wei Zixuan added, "She’s right."

Then, deeply affected, Sun Yifeng also looked toward Huo Feng, who sat in the corner, and after staring for a while, only said, "I just don’t see what’s so handsome about him; he looks pretty normal to me."

Minal, Wei Zixuan: "..."

Sun Yifeng continued, "Sangzhi is beautiful, not even wearing makeup and still so gorgeous. Sigh... too bad she has a boyfriend..."

Minal, Wei Zixuan thought: Even if Sangzhi didn’t have a boyfriend, you still wouldn’t stand a chance!

Some people really...

Meanwhile, Yong Mu and Mu Mu were also chatting on the other side of the metro.

They stood in a spot not too far from Huo Feng, so naturally, their conversation also revolved around him.

Mu Mu asked Yong Mu, "Is today’s outfit styled by Sangzhi’s boyfriend?"

Being lifelong friends, Mu Mu was sharp-eyed enough to notice at first glance that Yong Mu’s outfit and appearance were nothing like his usual style.

Even though it wasn’t his usual style, today’s change was indeed good...

Mu Mu felt it was even better than his previous style.

Yong Mu felt slightly uneasy as he tugged at the clothes Huo Feng had lent him and pursed his lips. He said, "He lent me these clothes and helped me dress, saying, ’Men also need to present themselves well outside. Not just in front of a girlfriend, but in front of others too.’ I think he’s quite right, what do you think?"

Mu Mu nodded, "Makes sense. I think you look really good today."

Yong Mu slightly bowed his head, his face flushing with embarrassment, "Actually, I think he’s a really good person. After getting to know him better, he’s been really nice to me. He always thinks of me in everything and even invites me out."

Mu Mu continued nodding, "He does seem like a good person. I think, you should get along well with him. Sangzhi told me some of his past, he was popular even in high school, which shows his character must be good."

"Right, he truly is good."

Yong Mu couldn’t help but look up at Huo Feng, feeling very comfortable inside. "By the way, how are you getting along with his girlfriend?"

Mu Mu smirked, "She’s exceptionally gentle and polite, seems like she hardly gets angry. Anyway, I’m pretty close to her, but not so much with the other two roommates."

Hearing this, Yong Mu felt reassured, "Now I feel like college life is pretty good, hoping it stays good ."

Mu Mu nodded, "It definitely will."

Yong Mu added, "By the way, are you going back to Hangzhou for the October holiday?"

Mu Mu silently lowered her head, her expression suddenly gloomy. After thinking for a while, she finally said, "I don’t know..."

Observing her expression, Yong Mu’s brows slightly furrowed with a pained look, "How about you don’t go back? Come to my place?"

Mu Mu shook her head, "If I don’t go back, I’ll stay in the dorm. I can’t get along with your sister..."

Yong Mu sighed softly, "Alright."

In the meantime, they changed to subway line 8.

After getting on line 8, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng had no seats.

Line 8 toward Nanluo Guxiang was very crowded, there was hardly space to spare, even on the handrails.

Huo Feng found a corner to stand in, reaching up to hold the handrail, and Pu Sangzhi stood next to him, also holding onto the handrail.

The subway wasn’t always steady, with occasional slight shakes.

When Pu Sangzhi was a bit unsteady, Huo Feng quickly pulled her close, freeing one hand to embrace her slender waist.

With many people around, Pu Sangzhi felt a bit embarrassed and tapped his chest whispering, "Hey, no need for this, I can stand..."

However, Huo Feng firmly embraced her, looking down, he softly countered, "You need to stay here even if you are steady. Don’t you know places are full of creeps?"

Pu Sangzhi punched his chest lightly, "That’s not necessary, it’s too crowded. Just standing normally should be fine."

Huo Feng refused, his tone authoritative, "I need to hold you , I won’t feel at ease otherwise. If you feel shy, just bury your face in my chest, then no one beside you can see you."

Pu Sangzhi softly called him.

Suddenly, her keen eyes caught what seemed to be a phone aimed at her and Huo Feng from not too far away.

Pu Sangzhi turned her head to the left, indeed, a girl wearing a ponytail hurriedly pocketed her phone, offering an embarrassed smile...

"Are you filming us?" Pu Sangzhi asked the girl.

The girl, embarrassed at being caught, said, "I just... thought the guy was really handsome, and the lady is pretty. Your conversation was interesting... so I filmed it. Can I post it on TikTok?"

Pu Sangzhi blushed, about to refuse, when Huo Feng by her side said, "Sure, make us go viral."

With his agreement, Pu Sangzhi felt too embarrassed to refuse.

Also, the girl was delighted, "Hehe, okay, handsome guy."

Then, the girl really did edit a message and posted it on TikTok...

[Caught a couple with celestial good looks on the subway! The guy held the unsteady girl forcibly; she felt embarrassed, but he said: ’Bury your face in my chest, no one can see you then!’ And then... I secretly filmed them. Hahaha!]

This TikTok... quickly went viral!

And it made Huo Feng stumble upon it that very night...
