Zhang Yuze himself had also considered this question. His final answer was that he regarded her as a 'bro,' not simply as a girl. Of course, this wasn't to say that Wu Xinyu looked like a boy. Outwardly, Wu Xinyu was definitely more womanly than most women. It was just that her personality was so outgoing and unreserved that Zhang Yuze didn't feel that natural awkwardness he usually felt around girls.
Indeed, upon hearing Zhang Yuze's blunt words, the aggrieved look on Wu Xinyu's face vanished without a trace, replaced by a sly smile. She looked at Zhang Yuze with a grin, even sticking her tongue out at him. In that moment, even a master of Sichuan opera's face-changing art would pale in comparison!
Suddenly, as if remembering something, Wu Xinyu 'hmph-ed!' and sat down on Zhang Yuze's bed in a huff, pushing him and asking with great dissatisfaction, "Why are you like a pig, still sleeping at this hour?"
Zhang Yuze, however, nonchalantly lay back down on the bed, saying, "Haven't you heard people say that the greatest joys in life are sleeping until you wake up naturally and counting money until your hands cramp? One of my greatest joys has now been directly ruined by you."
"Hmph! Sleeping until you wake up naturally is what pigs aspire to," Wu Xinyu said, rolling her eyes at Zhang Yuze, seemingly very disdainful of his words.
"Alas! In this world, how many people long for the life of a pig but cannot attain it!" Zhang Yuze sighed, speaking with great magnanimity.
Wu Xinyu: "…"
"By the way, what's a girl like you doing in a boys' dormitory? Aren't you afraid of running into perverts?" Zhang Yuze asked, looking at Wu Xinyu with a half-smile.
"What's so special about your boys' dormitory? I'll come if I want to. Besides, so what if there are perverts? If they're too bad, I wouldn't mind turning them into eunuchs," Wu Xinyu said, her gaze sweeping meaningfully up and down Zhang Yuze's body.
Hearing Wu MM mention the word 'eunuch,' Zhang Yuze felt a chill in a certain part of his body and became greatly afraid, hurriedly covering that area with both hands.
Saying that, Wu Xinyu patted Zhang Yuze's leg, 'hmph-ed' and said, "Are you playing dumb? I called you this morning, haven't you forgotten?"
"Why did you call me?" Zhang Yuze asked, looking at Wu Xinyu with some confusion.
"Ugh, have you forgotten? I wanted you to accompany me shopping," Wu Xinyu said angrily, knocking Zhang Yuze on the head.
"Uh, was that you who called this morning?" Zhang Yuze vaguely remembered that someone had indeed called this morning.
"I'm speechless, you don't even know who called?" Wu Xinyu widened her eyes, looking as if she wanted to bite Zhang Yuze in anger.
Zhang Yuze scratched his head sheepishly, feeling a little embarrassed seeing Wu Xinyu like this.
"What, you're not willing? Don't you forget, kid, you said you'd treat me to a meal, and you still haven't fulfilled your promise!" Wu Xinyu said to Zhang Yuze in a huff.
