Chapter 23 No Photos
The red light stopped the G-Class. Qin Yuan turned his head and said confidently, "What's wrong? You don't like it?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wei Chuan explained excitedly, "I went there with Xu Heqing. Meng Tang likes Xu Heqing. You all know my roommates. Does Xu Heqing know?"
"Oh, so...you became a matchmaker?"
Wei Chuan snorted: "You can say that."
Qin Yuan: "Did it succeed?"
Wei Chuan: "Xu Heqing left halfway."
"So, you stayed? You didn't even come back for my birthday?"
"Why are you mentioning your birthday again? Didn't I buy you a present?
Qin Yuan chuckled.
Wei Chuan found him baffling.
The seven-day holiday passed quickly. Meng Tang booked a ticket for the morning and returned to the dormitory with Xie Lingyin one after another.
The two of them cleaned up and washed the quilt covers. Of course, they also washed Shi Lan and Yang Ke's.
At noon, neither of them was too lazy to go downstairs, so they just ate instant noodles.
After eating, Xie Lingyin asked, "When did Wei Chuan go back?"
Meng Tang wiped his mouth and said, "I left on the afternoon of the 2nd."
Xie Lingyin came over and asked, "What did you guys do? Did you take any pictures?"
Meng Tang said: "We didn't have enough time. We went to a temple and saw a waterfall, but didn't take any photos."
Wei Chuan did take a few pictures of the waterfall with his mobile phone, but he didn't post them on his Moments.
In the afternoon, Shi Lan and Yang Ke came back. They made the beds and went downstairs to eat together.
Shi Lan accidentally glanced at the card Meng Tang was holding and asked, "Why are you holding two cards?"
Meng Tang replied: "There is another one of Wei Chuan, it was lost at my house."
"Throw it at your house?" Yang Ke and Shi Lan said in unison, even their shocked expressions were exactly the same.
"Oops." Xie Lingyin muttered softly, leaning closer to Meng Tang and saying, "Did we forget something?"
Meng Tang laughed dryly: "It seems so."
Shi Lan and Yang Ke turned around and blocked Meng Tang in the dormitory.
"Confess and you will be rewarded."
Xie Lingyin stepped forward, pulled Meng Tang away, and explained the situation herself.
Shi Lan burst into tears: "If I had known, I would have gone too. Oh my god! You two are so tight-lipped."
Yang Ke looked up: "What on earth did I miss?"
Meng Tang comforted them: "Lingyin was in a bad mood at the time. She didn't want to tell you about her family affairs, and I couldn't tell you either. Will I take you to Yanqing next time if I have the chance?"
Xie Lingyin chuckled. "Meng Tang, you're such a blockhead. Are they regretting not going to your house? They're regretting not traveling with Wei Chuan and Xu Heqing."
Meng Tang: “…”
Shi Lan snorted: "What nonsense! I just regret not going to Meng Tang's house. I want to meet Master Meng, isn't that okay?"
"Okay, okay, let Meng Tang take you home when there's a chance."
As they were talking, they walked downstairs. When they were almost at the dormitory door, Meng Tang's phone vibrated.
Wei Chuan said he was waiting at the dormitory door to get his campus card.
But he didn't say that everyone in his dormitory was there.
Seeing Meng Tang, Liang Heng and Li Zhuo started to make a fuss, causing Meng Tang to look back repeatedly.
Wei Chuan was also startled and turned around to curse, "You two are crazy, what are you doing all of a sudden?"
Liang Heng and Li Zhuo said nothing, just kept laughing.
Meng Tang handed the campus card to Wei Chuan, and his eyes quickly passed over Xu Heqing.
It was not easy for two dormitories to meet each other, so they simply went to the cafeteria together.
Eight people, three of them were famous, and the news soon spread to various groups in the school.
The only reason two dormitories eat together is because someone is talking.
Word spread that the two dormitories were getting married.
The school sports meet is the day after tomorrow, so the topic of dinner naturally turns to this.
Wei Chuan asked Meng Tang: "Have you signed up for anything in the school sports meet?"
Meng Tang shook his head: "I told the teacher to focus on the physical test on the 14th."
Wei Chuan: "The physical test is in the gymnasium. The assistants are all seniors from the third and fourth years. If you are almost there, you will pass."
Meng Tang: "I took the test at the gym, so I should be fine."
He has been running 800 meters intermittently since the start of school and has reached twice a week. Wei Chuan started running on the night he left Yanqing and has been doing it for six days.
School just started today, so there must not be many people running on the playground. She planned to go there for a run after eating to digest her food.
But after leaving the cafeteria, everyone walked towards the playground in unison. Meng Tang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that they all had the same idea.
But Wei Chuan is gone, and he still has training to do.
Shi Lan asked, "When does the grassroots competition start?"
Xu Heqing replied, "Every region and school is different. For Province Z, the complete schedule will be announced about one to two weeks before the competition."
Meng Tang knew Cubal but had never paid attention to it. He asked quietly, "How many days will the competition last?"
Xu Heqing said: "It depends on how many teams there are. The grassroots competition in Z Province usually starts in early November. Z University skipped the group stage this year, so the competition should be completed around the 10th."
"Brother Chuan and the others practice extra every night," Li Zhuo interjected. "Last year's results were mostly regrettable. Brother Chuan is taking the lead this year, so the pressure is huge."
Liang Heng raised an eyebrow. "Is he under a lot of pressure? I think he's very crazy. The closer the competition gets, the more excited he gets."
Xu Heqing jokingly said, "A competitive player."
The time was almost up. Meng Tang patted Xie Lingyin and said, "I'm going for a run."
Just as Xie Lingyin was about to catch up, Xu Heqing said he had something to talk to her about.
Shi Lan and Yang Ke caught up with Meng Tang and accompanied her.
After finishing the run, I realized that Xie Lingyin still hadn't caught up with me.
When they were returning to the dormitory, Shi Lan made a phone call and Xie Lingyin asked them to go back first.
Meng Tang was held by the two girls, one on each side, and walked towards the dormitory.
"Have you noticed that Lingyin often has something to do late at night?" Yang Ke tilted his head in confusion.
"Really?" Meng Tang didn't think so. "When I came back, you were all in the dormitory."
Shi Lan tsk-tsks: "You are in a different department from us, and she does always go out at night."
Meng Tang: "Maybe something really happened."
"Hey," Yang Ke pulled Meng Tang, "Is she in a relationship?"
Meng Tang: "No way?"
Shi Lan also said it was impossible: "If she wants to fall in love, she won't hide it from us."
"That's right." Yang Ke responded, then asked in confusion, "You said there's no one ugly in our dormitory, so why is it so hard to find a partner? Lingyin is the campus beauty, so how come she's the same as us?"
Shi Lan nudged Meng Tang and asked, "Did you create any sparks with Wei Chuan when you went back this time?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Meng Tang bumped into her. "What could be going on between Wei Chuan and me? He has someone he likes. Have you forgotten?"
"Fuck, I really forgot." Shi Lan looked regretful.
Yang Ke let go of Meng Tang and said with a wicked smile, "You two should open up your mind. What if Wei Chuan likes Meng Tang?"
"Yang Ke." Meng Tang chased after him, a little anxious, "Please stop talking nonsense, he really has someone he likes."
"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."
Meng Tang felt embarrassed, but she couldn't blame Yang Ke. After all, she didn't know that Wei Chuan liked Xie Lingyin.
After taking a shower absentmindedly, Meng Tang attributed the fundamental reason why others linked her and Wei Chuan together to their frequent interactions.
The grassroots competition was approaching, and she had almost learned the three-step layup, so there was no need to waste Wei Chuan's time.
After drying her long hair, Meng Tang climbed onto the bed and sat cross-legged. She edited a message for a while and then sent it to Wei Chuan.
