Love is as simple as badminton.

Chapter 41 Seeing you all reminded me of my youth.

Early in the morning, in the office of the Youth League Committee of the School of Social Sciences—

"Jin Xin, I've sent you the requirements for the support text and accompanying pictures for the Freshman Cup. The deadline is tomorrow at noon."

"Okay, senior, I'll send it to you as soon as I've finished writing it."

"Yes, if you're unsure about anything, you can ask Chen Lan; she's a good writer."

After sending the document to Jin Xin, Shi Yuqi went back and forth between several workstations, personally confirming the requirements and effects of each person's task with them.

After everything was settled, she handed out a bunch of snacks to the students present, reminding them to balance work and rest and not to overwork themselves. Then she picked up her golf bag and jogged away from the office.

The students at their workstations were eating snacks, all with satisfied expressions.

"It's so wonderful to receive food from Senior Poetry every day."

"And she always explains things in such detail! At first, I was worried that she might make a mistake or something, but I found out I was overthinking it. It's like she's feeding me a baby."

"I heard that the senior students in the Physics Department are very authoritative. They not only do nothing but also often urge people to revise their manuscripts late at night. My girlfriends complain to me every day, saying that they would rather go back to military training."

"Sigh, there are all sorts of birds in a big forest, and even a small, run-down courtyard has its advantages..."

Several students were typing away on their keyboards while discussing amongst themselves.

Generally speaking, people rarely choose to join the political work group because they like writing; they simply don't want to endure the hardships of military training and want to find a place to slack off.

However, the political work group of the academy was full of vitality, and even the two people who were initially just going through the motions had become very diligent today.

Because senior Shi Yuqi showed them that they could be full even if they only ate snacks and not main meals!

What else is there to say?

Writing 4,000 words an hour is not their limit, it's the limit of their loyalty!

With such a wonderful leader and a talented and beautiful senior, anyone, male or female, would be captivated.

Sure enough, the conversation in the office quickly turned to dating.

"I heard that Shi-senpai doesn't have a boyfriend yet, and she's never dated before."

"Really? That's unbelievable!"

"It's actually normal. Whether it's a boy or a girl, people who are too outstanding are indeed more likely to be single."

"What you're saying makes me want to try it myself. Maybe the bold will get rich while the timid starve!"

Some of the boys who considered themselves to be in good shape were eager to try.

You'd better give up on that idea now.

A hearty laugh came from behind me.

"Ah, Teacher Lü..."

The boy immediately stood at attention, almost dropping the book he was holding.

"It's almost impossible to win over a career-oriented girl like Xiaoshi using normal methods."

Lü Xiaonan waved her hand, telling him not to be nervous, and then, when no one was looking, she slipped a bag of spicy strips into his hand. "Put yourself in Xiaoshi's shoes, would you agree?"

"The teacher's reminder is correct!"

The boy chuckled and scratched his head, "I'll definitely learn more about how to pursue girls when I have time, of course, without affecting my studies..."

"Don't chase after them. You can't win someone over by chasing them. Whether you're a guy or a girl, relationships that are pursued rarely last."

Lü Xiaonan shook her head earnestly.

"The girl who takes so long to reply to you might be chatting away with another guy right away, and that guy might be just as indifferent to her."

While being a good conversationalist is a plus, ultimately, relationships aren't about how hard you try, but whether you've attracted the other person.

So instead of focusing on improving yourself, you'll naturally attract the right person when you become better.

You won't need to go to great lengths to pursue them; the two of you will naturally come together.

"Is that so..."

Several freshmen from the School of Social Sciences nodded as if they had just had a sudden realization.

As expected of a man who has worked in the social sciences for over a decade, his insights are truly exceptional!

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher! We understand!"

Lü Xiaonan waved her hand: "I wouldn't call it guidance, just some insights, haha. Seeing you all reminds me of my youth, it's practically the same!"

Upon hearing some juicy gossip, the group couldn't help but stop what they were doing: "Did you also pursue girls when you were in college?"

"no."

Lü Xiaonan stood with her hands behind her back, gazing at the sky.

"When I was in college, I watched other people pursue girls in the same way."

"Oh, this."

……

Outside the bustling area, Jin Xin sat in a corner, typing silently, like a recluse living apart from the world.

The location is brilliant; the screen faces directly into the corner. Unless you specifically go behind his seat, no one can see what's on his screen.

Despite this, Jin Xin was still not entirely at ease and would observe the surrounding situation every few days.

—Besides liking to write and slacking off, the reason for joining the political work group might also be that the slacker writer wanted to find an opportunity to write and update.

Although the probability is very low, it is by no means zero.

Objectively speaking, the experience of writing here is quite good.

Not only can you enjoy air conditioning, but you can also eat snacks and sit in an ergonomic chair.

But... Jin Xin's gaze went past the screen to Chen Lan sitting opposite him, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

He still can't forget the moment when this introverted, homebody girl took the initiative to add him as a friend.

【You must be Shin-chan?】

Reality is sometimes more absurd than fiction.

He didn't reveal anything or notice anything unusual, yet a girl who had almost no interaction with him deduced his true identity simply from the contents of the book.

Chen Lan's subsequent conversations with him deeply shocked Jin Xin.

【XinXinJiang, I don't like savory rice dumplings, can you make them sweet instead?】

[XinXinJiang, girls usually take their clothes off when they sleep; you made a mistake in your latest chapter.]

[XinXinJiang, between black and white stockings, I think over-the-knee stockings look better.]

Yes, that's the art style.

This girl, like him, joined the political work group to write copy, and sat opposite him less than a meter away.

Now, Jin Xin feels like he's being watched while he's taking a dump every day when he's typing, and he feels extremely uncomfortable.

But surprisingly, the quality is indeed better than before...

【XinXinJiang, why have you stopped writing?】

As Jin Xin looked up at the sky, Chen Lan sent him another message.

They haven't noticed you, so you can continue writing without worry.

"Ugh."

Jin Xin silently covered his face.

This story teaches us that we must not project ourselves into the writing process.

Furthermore, real names of people and places cannot be used...

Inside the Xiangda Stadium.

"The smash is a common offensive technique in badminton. Depending on the method of execution, it can be categorized into a powerful smash, a drop smash, a slice smash, a sweeping smash, and so on..."

Lin Xiang explained and demonstrated in front of the camera with a serious expression.

"Is it okay now?"

"Yes, it works great! The effect is excellent!"

Shi Yuqi gave Lin Xiang a thumbs up, "Thanks for your hard work, junior!"

Lin Xiang truly deserves his reputation as a badminton master. Not only is he highly professional, but he also understands the needs of instructional videos. More importantly, he never gets stage fright or mispronounces words.

Therefore, many videos can be filmed in one take without post-production editing, saving Shi Yuqi a lot of effort.

The tutorial, which was originally scheduled to be filmed in early November, looks like it will be finished before the end of military training!

"Thank you for your hard work, senior."

Lin Xiang took out a box of strawberries and handed it to her with practiced ease.

"Thank you, junior..."

Shi Yuqi seemed a little nervous, and her voice was a little soft when she thanked him; she looked up at him again, and then quickly lowered her head.

"Well, I'll be going now!"

"Okay, goodbye, senior."

Watching the girl's retreating figure, Lin Xiang fell into deep thought.

My senior seems to be acting a bit strange lately. Why is that? He used to exchange snacks with her all the time like this.

Hmm, I'll go back and ask Zhao Hao.
