When Lu Yinxi entered the school gate, she was almost scared back by the sight in front of her.
She knew there would be a large number of people coming to the school for registration today, but she never expected there to be so many.
Sure enough, it was University A, one of the top institutions of higher learning in Huaguo. Even though its admission score line was set so high every year, there were still many students who regarded it as their ideal university.
Fortunately, from today on, she, Lu Yinxi, would become a member of this place.
The major Lu Yinxi applied for was Chinese History, one of the best majors in University A nationwide.
The excavation of the Tomb of King Jing of the Qi Dynasty, which shocked the whole country some time ago, was presided over by Professor Feng from the School of History of University A. This was also one of the reasons why she decided to apply here.
It might sound unbelievable to many people, but Lu Yinxi had a secret that she had never told anyone.
Some time ago, she often dreamed that she had become the Princess of King Jing of the great Qi Dynasty in history. In the dream, she also met King Jing.
If this was just an ordinary dream, it wouldn't have become a secret. The key problem was that this dream of hers was repetitive.
Especially in the month before the college entrance examination, she almost dreamed of the same scene and the same plot every night. It wasn't until the day she filled out her college application form and solemnly chose the School of History of University A that this dream disappeared.
After completing the enrollment procedures and declining the repeated kind offers from the senior students around her, Lu Yinxi carried her luggage alone to the dormitory.
Her family lived in the capital city, so it was very convenient for her to go back and forth. Therefore, she didn't bring many things for this semester's enrollment. Even Lu's parents were too lazy to send their daughter here. They said it was to train her independent spirit in a nice way.
However, after saying this, the old couple held hands and went on a trip!
It was just absurd!
Not thinking about those 'child - abandoning' parents anymore, Lu Yinxi quickly made her bed, bought some daily necessities, and planned to go to the library later.
She lived in a four - person dormitory. One of her roommates was her high - school classmate. They had contacted each other online during the summer vacation, so Lu Yinxi knew they would arrive at the school later.
Lu Yinxi went to the library actually to search for more books about the great Qi Dynasty.
In history, this dynasty didn't exist for a long time. Compared with the more glorious Han and Tang dynasties, few people paid attention to it. So it was not easy to find books about it on the market.
In desperation, Lu Yinxi could only set her sights on the library of University A. In fact, she had scouted the place in advance during the summer vacation.
But at that time, she wasn't a student of University A yet, so she couldn't take the books out. She could only come to the library at a fixed time every day.
Passing by rows of bookshelves, the book A History of the Qi Dynasty she wanted came into her sight.
Lu Yinxi unconsciously quickened her pace, trotted to the bookshelf, and reached out her hand to take it.
However, different from usual, today this copy of A History of the Qi Dynasty had been placed on the top - most bookshelf. No matter how much she tiptoed, she couldn't touch the book at all.
She could only ask for help.
Lu Yinxi sighed in her heart. Looking around, she found a boy nearby, who was lowering his head and flipping through a book. With his height, it shouldn't be difficult for him to get that book.
"Excuse me... Senior, could you do me a favor?"
The gentle female voice came into the boy's ears. Hearing this, the boy tilted his head slightly, but his gaze still remained on the book. The half of his face exposed to the sunlight had a somewhat sharp outline, and the gold - rimmed glasses on his nose glinted coldly.
Lu Yinxi widened her eyes and unconsciously took a half - step back. Why did this person look so much like King Jing in her dream?
"What's the matter?"
Shang Luoshu closed his book, suppressing the impatience in his heart. He didn't like being interrupted while reading. That was why he had even hidden in the library, but why couldn't he still get rid of those girls?
He looked up irritably, but was stunned on the spot when he met Lu Yinxi's gaze. How did this girl...
If the side - face he saw just now only resembled King Jing in the dream by 50%, now that he saw the front - face, Lu Yinxi raised the similarity to 70%.
If it weren't for the bookshelves all around, confirming that she was still in the library, she would even have thought that she had traveled through time.
"Classmate, what's the matter?"
Shang Luoshu repeated his question again, without the impatience in his tone just now.
Lu Yinxi woke up as if from a dream and quickly pointed to A History of the Qi Dynasty on the top - most bookshelf. "That book. Could you help me get it, senior?"
"Sure." As he said this, he had already taken the book in his hand, but he didn't hand it to Lu Yinxi immediately.
"Does the classmate also like the history of the Qi Dynasty?"
"I can't say I like it. I'm just a bit interested in it."
Lu Yinxi's gaze was fixed on the book. At this moment, her interest in the book had completely exceeded that in Shang Luoshu. After all, she was just a little bit away from finishing reading that book.
Shang Luoshu naturally didn't miss her gaze and smiled as he handed the book over.
"If the classmate is interested in the Qi Dynasty, Professor Feng will hold a lecture in the small auditorium at 7 p.m. next Monday, mainly introducing some situations of the Qi Dynasty. If you're free, you can come and have a look then."
......
When Lu Yinxi returned to the dormitory, she found that there were two more roommates.
One was her high - school classmate and good friend Zhang Lingyue, majoring in Chinese Language and Literature. The other was Qu Yao, who she had exchanged a few words with online. Qu Yao was in the same major and class as her.
"Yinxi, you're so eager to learn. You ran to the library as soon as you came to school. How can you make us scumbags feel?"
Zhang Lingyue's home was not far from Lu Yinxi's. They could have come to school together, but Lu Yinxi was eager to come to University A to read books, so she left Zhang Lingyue behind and came here first.
"Shut up!"
Lu Yinxi retorted mercilessly. "If you're a scumbag, how could we be in the same dormitory?"
The college entrance examination score line of University A every year ensured that the students who entered this place couldn't be scumbags.
The three of them joked with each other for a few more words. When the fourth roommate also arrived, they went out of school together to have hot pot in order to get to know each other better and strengthen their relationship.
Originally, they also planned to go around the school, but before they could put this into action, they had their first class of the semester: military training!
After a day of training, although Lu Yinxi didn't lie on the bed like the others, she was also very reluctant to get up. So, naturally, she skipped that lecture about the great Qi Dynasty.
......
The hands of the clock were approaching 7. Shang Luoshu raised his wrist to look at his watch and glanced at the auditorium entrance again, but still didn't see that figure.
"Luoshu, I've seen you keep looking at the time and the entrance since just now. Are you waiting for someone?" Professor Feng deliberately swayed over to his student and said teasingly.
Shang Luoshu shrugged and said helplessly, "I originally wanted to let the teacher meet her, but she didn't come."
"Is it a little girl?"
Seeing the surprised expression on his teacher, Shang Luoshu knew that he had thought wrongly. He could only continue to explain.
"Yes, it's a little girl, but it's not the kind of relationship you think. I just thought she looked a bit like someone, so I wanted you to meet her too."
......
Lu Yinxi saw Shang Luoshu again two weeks later. By then, she had already finished the two - week military training and even had a happy holiday.
But what she didn't expect was that the teacher for her first class was actually Shang Luoshu!
???
Didn't the class schedule say that the teacher would be Professor Feng?
"Yinxi, don't you know?" Seeing the shocked expression on her friend's face, Zhang Lingyue lowered her voice and whispered in her ear.
"Know what? I just want to know when you became interested in history?"
Lu Yinxi and Zhang Lingyue were from different schools, so their teachers were naturally different. But today, she didn't know what had come over her and suddenly said she wanted to come to their class to attend the class.
"It seems you really don't know anything!" Zhang Lingyue shook her head and said helplessly. "Look at this classroom. Do you really think all these people are here to attend the class?"
Lu Yinxi looked around the classroom. It was full of people.
It shouldn't be like this according to the situation.
Among the many majors in university, history was not very popular. Coupled with the high score line of University A, there were only about thirty students in their class.
But now, the whole lecture hall was full, and many of them were girls.
Lu Yinxi seemed to understand something.
"Do you mean these people are all here for that person?"
She subtly pointed at the person on the podium.
"Otherwise! He's Shang Luoshu, the male god in the hearts of all the girls in University A! He has continuously published many papers in core journals. Even few postgraduate students and doctoral students can achieve this, let alone he is just an undergraduate student now."
Although she was keeping her voice down, Lu Yinxi could still hear the faint excitement in Zhang Lingyue's words, as if those honors were her own.
"I also heard that the male god got the qualification for postgraduate recommendation as early as his sophomore year, and it was Professor Feng who specifically wanted him."
Lu Yinxi nodded. Such an excellent person was indeed worthy of being admired by everyone.
"By the way, Yinxi, your name and the male god's name are quite interesting. Together, they form that line of poem by Mei Yaochen!"
"Frost falls, and the bear climbs the tree; The forest is empty, and the deer drinks from the stream!"
For a moment, Lu Yinxi thought she was having an auditory hallucination. Otherwise, why did she hear two voices reciting the same poem?
She fixed her eyes and found that the other voice was actually coming from the podium. Shang Luoshu was holding the class roster and calling the roll.
"This name is really fateful to me. I wonder if this classmate Lu Yinxi is here today?"
"Here!"
Lu Yinxi quickly stood up from her seat. She saw a smile flit across Shang Luoshu's lips and a look of understanding flash in his eyes.
"So it's you, Lu Yinxi. I didn't expect us to be so fateful!"
"Nice to see you again, Junior Sister Lu!"
The extremely affectionate tone and the deliberately close gesture made everyone who had never seen this side of Shang Luoshu almost stand still in shock. Then they all looked at Lu Yinxi in unison.
What was the relationship between this boy and this new student...?
Shang Luoshu seemed not to notice anything. He just said 'sit down' and then continued to call the roll. But after that, no one saw him show that expression again.
Lu Yinxi didn't remember at all how she got through this class. There was a Zhang Lingyue 'eyeing her covetously' beside her, and from all directions, there were still people's gazes sweeping over from time to time.
In short, every move of hers was like being under the spotlight, and there were always people staring at her. So as soon as the bell rang for the end of class, she rushed out of the door and returned to the dormitory.
She didn't even care about Zhang Lingyue.
Shang Luoshu looked at the figure that rushed out from the back door, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes again.
To be honest, when he first saw the name 'Lu Yinxi', the image of the girl he saw in the library subconsciously popped up in his mind.
His intuition told him that her name might also be Lu Yinxi.
Facts proved that he was right. He just didn't know what kind of connection she would have with the Princess of King Jing of the great Qi Dynasty.
......
Even though Lu Yinxi returned to the dormitory first, she still couldn't escape Zhang Lingyue's interrogation in the end.
Led by her, the three roommates menacingly forced Lu Yinxi onto a chair, looking 'ferocious'.
"Tell us, what's your relationship with Senior Shang Luoshu? Why is the way he talks to you different from that with others?"
The 'prisoner' Lu silently raised her hand. "I'd like to request one minute of uninterrupted free - statement time."
"Granted!"
One minute later...
"So you mean that today is just your second meeting with the male god?"
Lu Yinxi nodded.
"After only the second meeting, he was so affectionate to you?" Zhang Lingyue was suspicious and clearly didn't believe her.
Lu Yinxi was so angry that she immediately retorted. "Affectionate my foot! Isn't this how normal people talk?"
"Senior Shang Luoshu is our male god. Can he be a normal person?"
Didn't this sound like an insult?
Before she could refute, the dormitory door suddenly knocked 'dong dong'. The three of them had to let Lu Yinxi off for the time being and go to open the door.
Unexpectedly, it was the dormitory aunt.
"Which one of you is Lu Yinxi? Someone is looking for you downstairs."
"Looking for me? Who?"
Lu Yinxi subconsciously asked.
The aunt thought for a while and replied, "It's that boy you girls keep chasing after and calling the male god. His name seems to be Shang Luoshu?"
