Chapter 65: The Flower and Willow Gentleman

  "Huh? You're saying that those three kids from Kyoto University, who claim to be here at Nongda to pick up a girl from the Art Academy?" Wang Yong's eyes darted back and forth, his pointed nose twitching as he sniffed out the scandalous flavor of the situation, and asked again: "Who are they picking up?"

  Lu Peng puffed on his cigarette, shaking his head. He was a stubborn and single-minded artistic youth, when it came to relationships between men and women, he was completely clueless, and didn't want to know who the other person was. Even if it was the Queen of Heaven herself, he wasn't Erlang Shen, and had no connection with her whatsoever.

  Li Wei was still interested in this matter, and he planned to post it on his own website, wanting to use the hype of a hot event to boost traffic. He glanced at Xiao Xiao and asked urgently: "That female art student, didn't Yan Ting ask about her?"

  Xiao Xiao took out a cigarette, lit it, leaned against the bed, and puffed out smoke, saying: "Yan Ting will probably start asking questions soon. But thinking about it, even if we ask who it is, it's still embarrassing for Nong Da. So let's just gloss over it and move on. This way, everyone benefits." As he spoke, he couldn't help but admire Yan Ting a little. After all, Yan Ting was an old hand at Nong Da, and his sense of proportion in handling things was very good.

  "I'm going!" Lei Wei thought it was really meaningless for a question with no answer. He couldn't post something without an answer on the website, could he?

  Wang Yong turned his head and asked Qi Wei: "Do you think this girl is from your undergraduate class?"

  Ziwei heard this and smiled bitterly: "Wang Ge, I'm not like you who likes to snoop around. School has started for several days now, and I've met with my classmates a few times. I don't even know what kind of personality they have. I really don't know who that girl is."

  "Ah!" Wang Yong pulled out a top-grade Tianjing cigarette from his pocket and said, "You're such a blockhead."

  "Let's go drink!" Whenever Xiao Xiao encountered something unpleasant, she would say it out loud and then throw all the resentment and unhappiness far, far away to the home of the Jade Emperor's grandmother in the heavens. She would shout for everyone to go and drink happily.

  Wang Yong put away the mahjong tiles and threw them back into the neighboring dormitory. He came back to wait for everyone to tidy up, and the five of them formed a team, brushing out of the dormitory in unison.

  The night has fallen, and the street lamps have just been lit.

  The magnificent nightlife of Tianjing City has begun.

  Xiao Xiao and others came out of the school gate and arrived at a barbecue stall on Changchun Street. There were many barbecue stalls here, one table after another, connected together in a piece.

  The aroma of char-grilled meat wafts through the air, making people's stomachs growl with hunger, as if they want to devour the whole world. Many students from Nongda are eating and drinking here, downing bottles of wine, with arguments and shouts rising and falling in a cacophony.

  Five men sat at the stall, ordering peanuts, boiled corn, stir-fried snails, lamb skewers, a few roasted chicken racks and half a case of beer. While devouring the food and drinking beer, they used their eyes to scan the surrounding girls, hoping to catch some beautiful sights.

  Ziwei picked up his beer and toasted the others. With a few cups of wine, he became tipsy and began to open up about himself. He introduced himself in detail, saying that he was a native of Tianjing, living at the foot of Huangcheng Mountain. His family ran a restaurant. Today's meal was on him, and everyone should eat and drink well. He considered it his duty as host. Someday when he had time, he would invite everyone to his family's restaurant for a good meal.

  Everyone was immediately delighted and applauded, but they all blamed him for being stingy in the dormitory, which was really not very considerate.

  Ziwei said that although everyone is from the Art Academy, they are different in terms of major and undergraduate studies, and since they don't know each other well, it's inevitable to have some misunderstandings. However, after this gathering, I realized that everyone is down-to-earth, so I didn't hesitate to reveal my true self. I hope you all won't blame me for speaking out late.

  "Is there a restaurant miss at your home?" Wang Yong scratched his shiny forehead with his hand, and his eyes rolled around.

  "Yes! And very cheap." Qiu Wei replied succinctly after downing his wine.

  "That's not late at all!" Wang Yong immediately waved his hand and called for several large roasted waistbands, eating with oil flowing from his mouth, and getting his small eight-character beard all over. He is now starting to make up for it, preparing for a big battle in the future.

  "No way, everyone will make up for it." Lu Peng and Li Wei ordered a few more big waistbands for each person.

  It was around nine o'clock when everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, and the party came to an end.

  Although Zhiwei's family runs a restaurant, he is very clean and honest by nature and can't drink. After this small drinking session, having drunk six or seven bottles of beer, he got a bit dizzy. He put his arm around Xiao's shoulder and stuttered: "Xiao brother, when the time comes, you must come to my house. I'll find you a 17-18 year old, just out of puberty little chick. Guaranteed to make you feel refreshed." His words were very affectionate.

  Xiao Xiao could see that he was also a down-to-earth person, so she smiled and agreed with him.

  Xiao Xiao and others returned to the third dormitory building. Qi Wei's dormitory was on the third floor, so he didn't take the elevator but walked back to his own dormitory.

  Xiao Xiao and his group returned to the 918 dormitory, only to find that Liu Yu had not yet come back. They all sighed, this leader's work is really busy indeed.

  Wang Yong smoked a few cigarettes, blew a lot of nonsense, and talked about some interesting things when he was in high school, winning money playing mahjong and then going to the hair salon across from the school to pick up girls. Everyone was amused by him. After finishing speaking, he was drunk and went to sleep on his own bed next door.

  Lu Peng played mahjong all day, and was a bit drunk. He had been feeling down for days, so he couldn't help but feel tired. He went to bed early, sleeping soundly.

  Li Wei was still sitting in front of his computer, drinking strong tea to refresh himself, staring blankly at the click-through rate of his website, and clicking his tongue in dissatisfaction.

  Xiao Xiao walked to the balcony, rested his arms on the railing, lit a cigarette, and exhaled smoke as he gazed up at the starry sky. He looked down at the campus where people were becoming fewer and fewer, and thought of the black shadow that had appeared on the balcony last night.

  What the hell is that shadow?

  "The wind is blowing gently, and the Yi River is cold. A brave warrior has gone and will never return." Xiao's phone rang.

  He took out his mobile phone and swiped open the screen, it was Hua Jun.

  "What's up?" Xiao Xiao answered the phone.

  "You didn't text me the day before yesterday, were you saying you're coming to Jingmei University? When are you arriving? I'll find two girls and introduce them to you as new friends, let's have some fun." Huajun said on the phone from her office in the Beijing headquarters of Expressway.

  He let out a wry smile, and it wasn't until he sent the message that he realized it was already late. This speed is really slow. It would have been better if you had arrived a day earlier. If I had gone to Jingmei University first, maybe things wouldn't have escalated to this point with Yuan Dao. He said to Hua Jun: "Are you still going to Jingmei University? I'm afraid your university has already issued a wanted notice for me, and if they see me, they will definitely kill me on the spot." He told him about his encounter with Yuan Dao at Longshan Mountain that day, and their run-in at Dongmen today.

  Hua Jun was shocked to hear this, and didn't expect that Xiao Xiao and Yuan Dao had such a coincidence. He bitterly smiled and said: "The Yuan Dao family owns the Junya Group, which operates in the food and lodging industry, and is one of the six major groups invested by Jingmei University. Yuan Dao has a good image, and at Jingmei University, he's always been an idol. If you're friends with him, you can roam freely around Jingmei University, and all the beautiful girls from various countries are yours for the picking. But if you're his enemy, even the cleaning ladies of Jingmei University won't let you off. Looks like this time, you've really stirred up trouble."

  "Damn it!" Xiao Xiao heard that Yuan Dao's strength was indeed powerful, and he also thought of the beautiful girls from various countries who were easily picked, his heart was itching to death. He suddenly yearned for Kyoto University. It's a pity that such a good thing had passed him by. If only he had known earlier that being friends with Yuan Dao would have brought such treatment.

  That being said, I still have to stick with today's choice.

  Xiao Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Since it's come to this, there's nothing we can do about it."

  Hua Jun lit a cigarette, gazing out the window at the night scene, supporting his head with his hand, and said: "If you don't make some trouble, it's not like you. However, actually, there's nothing much to do. Yuan Dao is indeed somewhat eccentric in personality, but I've heard he's still a very righteous person. You also know this. I'm not familiar with him, but I'll see if I can find an opportunity. Maybe everyone can sit down together and have a clear talk, who knows, maybe we can all make up."

  "Alright." Xiao Xiao lit another cigarette and put it in his mouth. During the time he returned to the dormitory, he drank with the people in the dormitory again, calmed down, and thought calmly. He felt that Yuan Dao might have just been angry at the time, and it was better to let things go. It would be best to find a mediator, and Hua Jun was naturally someone who could be trusted.

  "That's good, by the way, did you see that chick I sent to you that day? What do you think?" Hua Jun sneered on the other end of the phone, recalling the soft and fragrant woman, feeling extremely pleased.

  Xiao Xiao knew that the girl he was talking about was the one with the rose tattoo on her back in the text message that day. He smiled and said, "She's just okay." In fact, he hadn't seen her full face and couldn't really comment.

  "That's it, that's the sixth one in Tianjing. Forget it, I really have nothing to say to a monster like you. That's all, be careful." Huajun said proudly.

  Xiao Xiao laughed and said, "Mm, you'd better be careful too, don't get infected with AIDS and turn yourself into a flower boy." As soon as he finished saying this, the image of Hua Jun being infected with syphilis suddenly appeared in his mind.

  At that time, Hua Jun had already lost his current handsome appearance and became emaciated, resembling a withered tree. His two peach blossom eyes turned into two dry tea stalks. Like a little ghost, he lay in bed, his breath as thin as a thread, his mind racing, recalling the women of his past.

  Unbeknownst to him, his little brother, who had withered away like a dried fish, suddenly regained his long-lost vitality.

  Suddenly, Hua Jun waved his arm with all his might and shouted loudly: "My dream." Before he could finish speaking, he swallowed his last breath. But his eyes were still open, regretting that he had not slept with ten thousand women.

  "Haha. Screw you. Damn it." Hua Jun heard Xiao Xiao curse himself, and immediately scolded him back. After scolding, he hung up the phone. He smoked a cigarette, staring out the window.

  Before long, an eighteen-year-old girl with a big butt, who was working part-time at the expressway, came as promised. She stood in front of Hua Jun, shining brightly as she looked at the handsome guy opposite her.

  Hua Jun's peach blossom eyes smiled, pulling her into his own arms, his right hand pinched her chest like a small clip, his left hand patted her buttocks and said: "I will be very gentle with you."
