Chapter 787: Chapter 282: Senior, I Want to Give You a Special Graduation Gift! (3)
The junior offered Su Zelin milk tea and snacks, continuing for three years until he graduated.
"Senior!"
Seeing that guy, Huang Panpan felt a little strange; she didn’t know him.
"A friend from the same dormitory floor."
Su Zelin casually introduced.
"Haha, you guys chat, I have something to do, I’ll head back to the dorm first."
The guy, being sensible, assumed she was Su Zelin’s girlfriend.
It seems he stayed not just because he was reluctant, but also due to a girl he was attached to.
"Senior is graduating now; I wish I was born a year earlier so we could be in the same grade."
Thinking of Su Zelin soon leaving school, Huang Panpan felt a bit down.
However, the good news is that Su Zelin’s company headquarters is in Lin’an, and in the future, he will be working and living in the provincial capital. As long as she has time, she can often visit him.
Su Zelin was amused by her: "Panpan, if you were born a year earlier, we might not have met."
"That’s true."
Huang Panpan agreed.
After all, causality is hard to explain.
She was a year behind Su Zelin, which is how they coincidentally met at an internet cafe and became acquainted.
"Alright, it’s okay. Anyway, you’re in Lin’an after graduation."
The junior felt relieved.
Su Zelin’s computer was still in the dormitory.
Others had shipped theirs home; he didn’t need to because he drove, so he would just toss it in the trunk tomorrow.
However, the dorm’s campus network was already disconnected, so he could only play single-player games or watch movies.
There wasn’t much else to do, so he booted up his computer, opened a Stephen Chow movie "A Chinese Odyssey," sipping milk tea, snacking, and watching. This was also what the junior and Su Zelin did most together during their time at the Academy of Finance.
It felt like he hadn’t graduated yet, as long as the other five beds weren’t empty.
After watching two "A Chinese Odyssey" movies, it was already past ten o’clock when he checked the time.
"Panpan, it’s getting late, you should head back and rest."
The Academy of Finance officially started the holiday tomorrow, but by convention, the students were already free tonight. If they catch the timing, they could go home tonight, but rigid rules at the girls’ dormitory still applied, and they couldn’t enter after ten-thirty.
The boys’ dormitory was more relaxed; the dorm manager usually stayed up late. As long as the boys understood a bit, offering a cigarette now and then, they’d get familiar. As long as it wasn’t too late, they could easily knock on the door. Su Zelin often handed him a pack of cigarettes, getting along quite well with the dorm manager.
"Hmm."
The junior stood up, walked to the door, but didn’t leave.
Instead, she closed and locked the door and pulled the curtains.
"Panpan, what are you doing?"
This move stunned him immediately.
"Senior, I want to give you a special graduation gift."
The junior’s cheeks blushed, shy beyond measure, gathering her courage to speak.
He naturally understood what she meant, a bit taken aback.
Huang Panpan rested her head on his chest, the girl softly said, "This gift, Panpan has cherished for nearly twenty years; whether the senior likes it or not, I hope you’ll accept it tonight."
Su Zelin’s heart began to race uncontrollably.
This was a girl who had been giving him gifts from high school to college graduation!
Milk tea, snacks, figurines, cups, wallets, origami cranes...
Oh, and not to forget the Three Guns brand.
Thanks to the junior, Su Zelin hadn’t bought underwear since high school, there were just too many. Huang Panpan would occasionally send him a new box, and he almost became a distinguished Diamond VIP of Three Guns.
Unnoticed, his heart had long been full of the junior’s image.
Su Zelin didn’t despise her persistence, nor did he dislike her; it was just that Huang Panpan treated him so well that he dared not reciprocate.
Besides Qin Shiqing, Huang Panpan might be the only one who treated him sincerely and selflessly.
Song Yuwei and Nanaz were certainly nice too, but there was a bit of utilitarianism involved.
Of course, Su Zelin understood, you can’t expect everyone to follow you unconditionally, without asking for any fame or material benefits.
However, Huang Panpan truly asked for nothing.
She is indeed beautiful, wealthy, and talented, but even if her family background wasn’t as affluent, Su Zelin believed she would still be the same towards him.
"Panpan, don’t do this, there’s something I need to tell you. Actually, Qin Shiqing and I..."
"I know, Shiqing has long been your girlfriend."
Su Zelin’s words were cut off by the junior, leaving him quite surprised.
"I also often browse Zhejiang University’s BBS, and let’s not forget, Wei Xian is there too."
"When I first saw the news on Zhejiang University’s BBS about you and Shiqing dating and going out, I cried all night, telling myself that your favorite person is still her, and I should forget about you."
"But as soon as that thought emerged, I felt as if my heart was being hollowed out, the kind of pain that makes it impossible to breathe."
"I thought about it all night, unable to let go of you, so when the sun rose, I wiped my tears, pretended to forget, as if it never happened, and continued to pursue you!"
"Yes, I’m just that shameless girl, but I really like you too much; I can’t live without you in my life!"
At this point, Huang Panpan raised her head, her delicate face already tear-streaked like pear blossoms in the rain.
"Even if it’s sneaking around with you, Panpan is willing!"
"I know you’re worried I’ll tell Shiqing and drive her away, taking her place."
"But I would never do that, because you’ve chosen to acknowledge Shiqing as your girlfriend, and I’ll respect your decision."
