Chapter Text
Lan Zhan was unfairly handsome. It was a fact known to everyone at the university, and anyone who didn't admit it was an idiot who needed a pair of glasses.
The girls went out of their way to get his attention, Wei Ying tried to do it, but nothing happened.
He was like a statue, rigid and emotionless.
Until today.
"Today I will get a reaction - Wei Ying said confidently, at the back of the library with his brother and Nie Huaisang - You will see, Lan Zhan will fall at my feet."
Jiang Cheng sighed, "Hurry up, we have to go study."
"Don't rush him, A-Cheng."
"You just want to see him fail."
Nie Huaisang said offended, "Excuse me, I'm a believer in true love!"
"Sure, and I'm the Emperor."
They were lucky that the librarian had already gone on lunch break, otherwise all three of them would be in trouble.
Nevermind.
Wei Ying had a plan and no intention of backing down.
So he went to Lan Zhan full of self-confidence and cheekiness.
He leaned the shoulder against the shelf and with a smile said "Lan Zhan, can we talk, one 10 to another?"
Lan Zhan didn't even bother to divert attention from the books he was putting down as he said, "You are an 11 but continue."
He didn't expect it. His mind went short. Cute boy replied. Wei Ying uses Flirt. Not effective. Cute boy used Flirt. It is super effective.
Wei Ying stammered, "Um ... you ... are you free tonight?"
"No."
"Oh, then ..."
"I'm free in twenty minutes, if you want we can go and eat something together."
"Yeah ..."
"I'll see you soon."
Amazed, Wei Ying returned to his friends. Nie Huaisang asked him, "How did it go?"
"Did he send you to hell?" Jiang Cheng asked, looking annoyed at his cell phone.
Still red with embarrassment, Wei Ying replied, "No, actually ... he asked me out."
"To get out of the library?"
"No, for a date."
Jiang Cheng took his eyes off the cell phone, "No way!"
"I know! I didn't expect it either!"
The only one who didn't look like he was having a panic attack was Nie Huaisang, "That's perfect. You have a date, aren't you happy?"
"No! Yes! I mean ... I've never got to this point. I don't even know ..."
"There is a vegetarian restaurant off-campus. My brother often goes there with Lan Xichen, and Dage said he loves it."
"Ok, vegetarian restaurant ... and after?!"
Nie Huaisang's eyes twinkled with mischief, "Well, your brother is here. Do you want me to tell you?"
"Huaisang!"
Two seconds later, Lan Zhan, tired, sleepless, and with no idea what he was doing, slowly began to understand what had just happened.
"Oh god."
