Two days after that incident when Wei Wuxian finally decided to tell his friends about his relationship with Lan Wangji, he was shocked to his core finding that his friends already knew.

"In fact it was my idea. I told Wangji to pin you onto the wall and kiss you till you faint. It was the only one time I saw you 'not showing off' and I was quite satisfied."

It was indeed shen Qingqiu who thought like this besides Wei Wuxian. "So you knew all along?" Wei Wuxian retorted.

"Why do you think the class was empty you dumbass?"

'Here we go again' thought Xie Lian sighing and shaking his head as if not wanting to stop them anymore.

As the mid sem breaks has come, they were going to study together for their upcoming exams. Without knocking on the door, Wei Wuxian entered Xie Lian's dorm room and found the other two already sitting on the floor studying. He was late because he stopped by a grocery store and bought a few snacks for them to eat while studying.

The dorm was quite big. The moment someone entered, they could see a kitchen counter on the left and a brightly lit drawing room in the front. The morning rays coming from the sliding glass door in the front lit up the whole room making it warm and welcoming. In the drawing hall was a sofa and a big center rable which was occupied by the three people.

On the left side was a door leading to the room. The room was quite spacious as well. It had a study table attached to the wall and another door to the bathroom beside the bed. Every dorm was identical or either a mirror image in this dorm. Xie Lian lived on the 3rd floor with Shen Qingqiu two dorm rooms away from him. Whereas Wei Wuxian lived on the 5th floor one door away from Hua Cheng.

"Why buy snacks? You should have told me I could have cooked something." Xie Lian asked.

"No need." Both of them yelled in unision as their spine straightened up with a chill by just imagining Xie Lian's cooking.

After having been studying till evening, all the three were exhausted. Wei Wuxian lied on the coach and fell asleep in no time, Xie Lian turned on the music in his phone and put the earplugs as to relax himself a bit and Shen Qingqiu got out of the dorm to stroll for a while.

The thought of that junior Luo Binghe was still there in his mind. He then remembered that a while before, Hua Cheng had told him his address. Shen Qingqiu halted on his tracks and was thinking whether he should go visit or not.

He finally decided and started walking towards the wing C of the dormitories. He reached the 4th floor and searched for 403. He found it but he still couldn't bring himself to knock remembering what that person had done in the verge of anger and also why. Then also remembering how he had helped him a few months ago when he had a fever and fainted. Then he remembered Hua Cheng's words that Luo Binghe had a liking on him since the first time he saw shen Qingqiu. The train of thoughts went on and then finally shen Qingqiu decided to knock.

Tak tak.

After a moment, the door opened. It was a tall figure with disheveled hair, wearing a black shirt and grey pajamas who opened the door. Shen Qingqiu's heart started pounding wildly at the scene. He didn't know what to do. At first the eyes of the person were expressionless but still handsome enough to fall in love of them at the first site. But then maybe seeing shen Qingqiu, the eyes were sparkling as if a child found a chocolate. Luo Binghe pulled shen Qingqiu in his dorm room and looked left and right in the hallway making sure nobody saw him before closing the door. This action was as if that child hiding his chocolate before anybody find out about it.

"Qianbei!" Luo Binghe called with his still sparkling eyes and a wide smile. "How come you are here?"

Shen Qingqiu was shocked for a moment but then adjusted himself and asked patiently. "Luo Binghe. Why did you and Liu Qingge fight? Why did you beat him?"

Hearing Liu Qingge's name the wide smile on his face suddenly disappeared and Luo Binghe mumbled;

"So this is why Qianbei is here and not to meet me."

Shen Qingqiu thought for a few minutes and realized that his statement was not quite appropriate to start the conversation when you're meeting a person for the first time, well third time. He then saw a pouted face of Luo Binghe which he found quite funny but didn't laugh.

Luo Binghe brought him to sit on the couch in the drawing room. Shen Qingqiu noticed that the room was quite similar to his since it was the same dormitory just different wings. His eyes then landed on the face of the person sitting in front of him. Shen Qingqiu said;

"Its not like that. I came to meet you today because I wanted to thank you."

Hearing this Luo Binghe slightly frowned and tilted his head in a very cute way. It made shen Qingqiu blush and look away.

"Thank me for what?"

Shen Qingqiu wanted to thank him for his help on their first encounter but the words wouldn't leave his mouth. Instead he said,

"Thankyou for the candies you gave me that day."

"Ah the candies? Qianbei likes them? Want more?"

"Ah no it's alright."

Now it was an awkward silence. They both didn't know what to talk after that. So shen Qingqiu randomly picked a topic.

"So... you and Hua Cheng are friends?"

"Yes. We are friends since our childhood."

"Oh"

Awkward silence again...

When they both talked, they looked at each other's eyes. But when there was silence, they escaped each other's gaze as if shy to look at each other. Meanwhile this awkwardness, Shen Qingqiu smelled something sweet and alluring lingering in his nose. So without second thought he asked; "are you cooking something?"

"Aaah...y-yes. I'm cooking noodles for dinner. Would Qianbei like to eat some?"

When the thing is about food, this Qianbei should really be respected for being as ill mannered as one could be. He instantly answered;

"Hell yeah. I love dinner."

With a big wide smile on his face, Luo Binghe happily prepared two bowls of noodles and sat with shen Qingqiu. He then served some water to shen Qingqiu as he thought the noodles were quite spicy and his Qianbei might not be able to take it. Little did he know about the foody side of his well... now crush.

"I'm telling you. This is the best bowl of noodles I've had until this far. I love it. I like it so much."

Luo Binghe was amazed for a few minutes. Before this he never really cooked for anybody other than shen Qingqiu. So he didn't know how exactly his cooking was. He gave a light chuckle staring at the face of the person sitting in front of him nodding his head happily and eating the noodles with his eyes closed, admiring the art.
