“I have to explain the event from the start. During winter break, I posted the calligraphy work that you gave to me on Wei Bo. I originally wanted to show it off to other fans,” As he said this, Jiang Chengfeng laughed awkwardly.
“It just so happened that one of our schools’ professors saw it, and he is interested in your work. He even asked me a few days ago about meeting you.”
“Another meeting? How many other people do we have to meet?”
“Xiaoru, Jiang Chengfeng has good intention.”
“All right, all right. Continue,” Li Xiaoru pouted.
“I couldn’t explain to the professor who you were since I didn’t even know you at the time, so I just wanted to meet you in advance and talk a bit. Honestly… I have never met an online friend before, so this is my first time,” Jiang Chengfeng was shy.
There were not many timid boys like Jiang Chengfeng in the music university. Because boys who studied performing arts had been in concerts since they were young, and they gained courage and the ability to stay calm. Those kinds of boys had also seen so many girls they got used to them, and Liu Man’s classmates would never seem so timid beside her.
Girls liked timid boys. Liu Man and Li Xiaoru developed good feelings towards Jiang Chengfeng. Li Xiaoru’s attitude became completely different as she amiably smiled,
“Well then, let me introduce to you who Princess Man is. Her real name is Liu Man, and she is a Sophomore in the piano major. She is also the “Hanfu goddess”.
Jiang Chengfeng asked unconsciously, “Then who are you?”
Li Xiaoru hesitated.
Liu Man smiled lightly, “Her name is Li Xiaoru; she’s my classmate and roommate.”
Li Xiaoru murmured, “For real, though, why are you talking about me.”
Li Xiaoru…
Jiang Chengfeng silently remembered that name.
He said to Liu Man, “Can I share your real information with my professor?”
This request was not too much, so Liu Man agreed.
“If he wants to meet up with you later, I hope you’ll accept. He’s a famous professor in our school and is old. He’s very knowledgeable, has a good reputation, and all students respect him. I did not expect him to be following my Wei Bo, not to mention he had someone look for me all over the school.”
Liu Man nodded.
She should feel flattered with such a person taking the initiative to meet up with her.
With one last sip of his coffee, Jiang Chengfeng could finally face the two girls calmly. He exclaimed, “Your artistic students are different; there are beauties everywhere. We can rarely see a beautiful girl on our campus. If my roommates know I had the pleasure to have afternoon tea with two beauties, they would be so jealous and envious,” He said as he rubbed his hands. Subserviently smiling, he then asked,
“Can I take a photo of you two so I can show it off when I go back?”
Liu Man and Li Xiaoru exchanged glances, and Li Xiaoru said, “As long as you don’t post it on the internet.”
“Can I send it in my WeChat moments?”
“Sure.”
Jiang Chengfeng lifted his phone and aimed the camera at both Liu Man and Li Xiaoru. Li Xiaoru was good at posing. She slightly turned her head and leaned towards Liu Man, and her finger pointed at the corner of her mouth. Liu Man, raising a Starbucks coffee mug, looked at the camera. Both girls smiled brightly, one showing off her white teeth and one slightly pursing her lips.
Jiang Chengfeng then asked Li Xiaoru fawningly, “Can I add you on WeChat? We met each other today, and we count as friends, right?”
Li Xiaoru was stunned. She didn’t expect Jiang Chengfeng to notice her with such a beautiful Liu Man there. Li Xiaoru was always inconspicuous in such situations, and the opposite gender would completely ignore her.
She felt a bit happy inside, and she pretended to be aloof, “If you want to, then sure.”
She opened her WeChat QR code as she said it.
Jiang Chengfeng scanned it, and when he saw the words “Successful Add,” he chuckled.
As he rode the subway back to his school, he sent that picture onto his WeChat moments. In the photo, the girl on the right side was Liu Man, an unquestionable beauty. But Li Xiaoru, on the left side, did not lose her presence either. She knew the defects of her appearance and covered up with the side of her face, making her seem naughtily pretty.
The picture with the pretty girls blew up within Jiang Chengfeng’s moments.
“Holy, that’s why you skipped the last class of the day. You went on a romantic date with girls!”
“Which one’s your girlfriend? Or are both of them your girlfriend?”
“You’re very impressive, having two girlfriends at once.”
“Nonsense! I refuse to believe that there are women who would ever like you. Come on, spit it out. What did you say to deceive them?”
“Look at the background. They seem to be at the Starbucks in front of the music university.”
“Dang, no wonder these two girls have such good temperaments. Jiang Chengfeng, you were sure having a good time.”
“Not only that, the girl on the left looks just like the ‘Hanfu Goddess.’
“I think she looks just like the Hanfu Goddess, too… But how can Jiang Chengfeng possibly know the Hanfu Goddess?”
Seeing everyone’s comments, Jiang Chengfeng felt very proud. He explained, “Mhm, I went to the Capital Music University to have coffee with two beautiful piano majors. The beauty on the right is Hanfu Goddess. (Yay!)”
!!!
“Jiang Chengfeng, tonight, you better not go back to your dorm.”
“We’re no longer friends. (Waving goodbye as I smile)”
“The tools are ready. Which method do you choose to die with? (kitchen knife)”
…
Liu Man and Li Xiaoru separated at the subway entrance. Liu Man was taking the subway home, and Li Xiaoru was going back to her dormitory.
As soon as Li Xiaoru went back to her dormitory, she saw Wang Nina sitting on a chair and facing her. She had on a faint smile, “I heard you went to Starbucks after school with Man Man to meet a boy from another school.”
Li Xiaoru was surprised.
“How do you know that?”
Wang Nina ignored Li Xiaoru’s question and continued asking, “Who is that boy?”
“He’s Man Man’s friend.”
“What friend? Why haven’t I seen him before? Is he her boyfriend? That same boy who picked her up from school to have dinner with from last time? He seemed to be driving a Volvo. Boys who can drive a Volvo at our age must be a bit rich.”
Wang Nina mistook Jiang Chengfeng for Yu Zhan.
“You’re very annoying and always ask questions. Why do you care so much?” Li Xiaoru was getting a bit angry at Wang Nina’s interrogations,” I already said he’s a friend of Man Man’s. I don’t know about other things. If you have any questions, go ask him yourself.”
“Since he’s her friend, why are you meeting him too? You must know a lot about him, and it’s just that you don’t want to tell me anything.”
Li Xiaoru was speechless as she rolled her eyes.
“It’s your fault for not choosing Basketball with us. It’s also your fault for hanging out with Xu Zihan and those people these days. Man Man doesn’t want to tell you something, and you’re blaming me?”
The way Li Xiaoru rolled her eyes pissed Wang Nina. Her expression looked upset, and she stopped talking. She walked out of the dormitory, slamming the door as she departed. The entire floor could probably hear the loud bang.
