"What have you been busy with lately? We hardly see you these days," Jian Yi asks Lin Yuan in the school's cafeteria on the second day of April.
Xia Fan also looks at Lin Yuan. It's true that Lin Yuan has been largely absent lately, always rather mysterious.
"I've been painting at the Art Society," Lin Yuan replies.
Jian Yi is taken aback for a moment before he chuckles and nods. "I never thought you'd be interested in joining a club. But it's good to engage in club activities occasionally. They've enriched half of my college life."
Jian Yi is a mainstay of the Qin Continent Art Academy basketball club.
He has loved playing basketball since he was a child and joined the club soon after starting university.
"Oh, yeah."
"Our school is having a basketball game next month," says Xia Fan. "As an active member of the basketball club, will you be representing your department?"
"Definitely!"
