Pretending to Be Younger

Ru Yu has a naturally youthful face: a small, round, soft, plump face and big, bright eyes. Every year, someone different mistakes her for an eighteen-year-old.

This year, that honor went to a college student who wasn't very good at basketball.

He failed to catch the ball. It rolled over, came to rest against Ru Yu's foot, and gently bumped it.

She looked up. The boy's face was icy, and he seemed a little impatient. He cleared his throat. "Why are you sitting so close...? Did it hit you? Give me your number. I'll pay your medical bills."

Ru Yu blinked. "Sure."

One day, the basketball team at Nancheng University realized that their extremely cold and unsociable captain, Chu Lie, seemed to be dating someone.

Who?

No idea. Seems to be someone from another school. Chu Lie even had to bring her onto campus before.

What does she look like?

No idea. Apparently she's sweet and well-behaved, maybe a junior who just started school.

What's she like?

No idea. But she must be a good girl, or how could she put up with Chu Lie's temper?

That sweet junior from another school had fallen into the clutches of their own ice-cold captain...

Under Chu Lie's murderous glare, the teammates, feeling rather sorry for her, could only admit: "We're shipping them, we're shipping them! Even my dog and I are shipping them!"

For the eightieth anniversary of Nancheng University's founding, an honorary alumnus was invited to return and give a speech.

Chu Lie didn't want to listen, so he messaged someone to ask if she was free.

His girlfriend usually went along with whatever he wanted, but today she couldn't. She said she had something to do and really wasn't free.

Chu Lie pouted, bored out of his mind, and his roommate dragged him along to fill a seat.

When they got to the venue, it was packed. They clearly didn't need extra people to fill seats.

Chu Lie was about to leave when the host onstage announced enthusiastically, "Next, let's welcome Nancheng University's honorary alumnus, renowned entrepreneur and philanthropist..."

"Ms. Ru Yu!"

Chu Lie: ?

So after all that, it wasn't an ice-cold captain X well-behaved girl, but a black-hearted CEO X an innocent male college student!

Like a bunch of fair-weather fans, the teammates excitedly declared under Ru Yu's smiling gaze: "We're shipping them, we're shipping them! Even my dog and I are shipping them!"
