Chapter 9 Waiting for you downstairs
When Meng Tang saw Wei Chuan, his eyebrows curved.
I had an appointment with him to have dinner today, and he was probably going back to the dormitory to change clothes, so he just happened to pass by.
Meng Tang saw that he ignored the petty Wang Jue and walked straight up to him.
"How's your hand?" Wei Chuan asked her.
Meng Tang smiled and said, "Much better. The stitches will be removed tomorrow."
The two of them were obviously familiar with each other. Wang Jue tsk- ...
Wei Chuan turned around and looked down at Wang Jue: "If her hand hadn't been injured, you wouldn't be scolding her now. After all, I taught her that."
Wang Jue chuckled, "Is this the kind of person you've ever taught?"
"I taught her that passing the exam is success. I'm 100% sure she can pass it." Wei Chuan sneered, "But you, a grown man, are complaining and making things difficult for a girl. If anyone knows about this, you'll bring shame to the entire sports academy, right?"
"Wei Chuan." Wang Jue's anger was even more apparent. "Why are you here if you're not training?"
"The coach didn't care about me, so why should you?" Wei Chuan turned around and lifted Meng Tang's wrist. "Her hand was injured. I took her to the hospital myself. It was a 4.5cm diagonal cut. The flesh was exposed and blood was all over the floor. What are you doing here?"
Wang Jue frowned and looked at Wei Chuan: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
"I'll definitely take care of it." Wei Chuan laughed instead of getting angry. "You're just acting like a bitch because you're a year older than us. Who the hell is spoiling you? I have a bunch of people at home who treat me like their darlings."
The boy behind Wei Chuan jokingly said, "Senior, don't you know that our brother Chuan is also known as Yaozu at home?"
Wei Chuan: "...Just shut up."
He just has three older sisters, but they jokingly call him Yaozu.
Since he was a child, he has been beaten and ordered around by his three sisters.
Meng Tang curled her lower lip at Wei Chuan's expression. She still knew the Yaozu joke.
Shi Lan thought she didn't know, so she whispered in her ear: "Wei Chuan has three sisters."
Meng Tang was still surprised for a moment. There were actually three?
Wang Jue knew that he could not defeat Wei Chuan in a head-on confrontation, so he suppressed his temper and said:
"She said her hand was injured and she couldn't touch the ball, so I asked her to run, right?"
"You asked Meng Tang to run five laps." Shi Lan mocked, "Besides, she came here to ask for leave."
"What's wrong with five laps?" Wang Jue automatically ignored the second half of Shi Lan's words. "I didn't set a time limit. She can control the speed herself."
Shi Lan: "You are just deliberately making things difficult for me. Meng Tang's hand is injured and the weather is so hot. What if he gets heatstroke or falls——"
"Is her hand so precious?" Wang Jue interrupted Shi Lan again, "It's just a minor injury. Why is she so pretentious as to ask for leave and go home like a princess? This is school. Since you are here for class, you must abide by the classroom rules."
"You're right, Meng Tang's hands are priceless." Shi Lan was furious. "Ten of you are not worth one of her hands. Do you know who she is?"
Wei Chuan raised his eyebrows. Oh no! There's a vest?
Most of the girls in the Academy of Fine Arts looked at Wang Jue with schadenfreude, without any surprise on their faces. It was obvious that they were aware of Meng Tang's "identity".
"What? She is the principal's daughter?" Wang Jue retorted.
"Not the principal's daughter." Shi Lan sneered, "But our dean has to call Meng Tang "Junior Sister" when he sees her."
"Don't you want to ask about the living sign hanging on our Academy of Fine Arts official website?"
"Meng Tang's grandfather is Meng Yuchun, a master of boxwood carving, whose skills are unparalleled. As the inheritor, do you think Meng Tang's hands are important?"
"She's only a sophomore, and the people at the art museum are already waiting for her internship."
"Every single thing she carves in class costs at least five figures."
"Look at the authoritative list of 'Chinese Contemporary Arts and Crafts Collection' and see what the youngest name is."
"Her first work, 'Naughty Boy Playing with Goose,' won the gold medal in the traditional woodcarving technique competition at the age of 18 and was selected for the intangible cultural heritage exhibition. It is now in the collection of the Provincial Museum."
"The insurance coverage for her hands is set according to Master Meng's standards. Even if you were to sell yourself, you wouldn't be able to make up the difference."
"It's just that Meng Tang hid the fact that he was injured. If our dean knew, scolding you would be the least of your worries."
"Meng Tang is low-key and doesn't like to quarrel with others, but he is not a fool who allows you to bully him."
Wang Jue was speechless, his face turning pale and blue. He didn't know Meng Tang was so powerful.
Shi Lan finally let it all out, and the pent-up anger in her heart finally cleared up. She looked at Wang Jue as if he were an idiot.
The playground was silent. The girls in the elective course all looked like they shared a common hatred for the enemy, and also felt a little proud of it.
Wang Jue's face flushed and sweat broke out on his forehead, but he couldn't bring himself to apologize.
Meng Tang didn't care much for his apology. He turned to Shi Lan and said, "I invited Wei Chuan to dinner tonight. Do you want to join us?"
Shi Lan's eyes lit up: "Is it okay?"
Meng Tang looked at Wei Chuan, and Wei Chuan nodded: "Sure, I have no objection to inviting all your dormitories."
Meng Tang pondered. Was Wei Chuan hinting at her? Was he asking her to bring Xie Lingyin with her?
However, it was not very convenient to do things during this period, and her roommate did help her a lot.
"Then shout it out." Meng Tang said, "How many people are there on your side?"
After all, they were treating each other, so Wei Chuan felt embarrassed to invite everyone in the dormitory.
He looked at Meng Tang and said, "Xu Heqing."
Meng Tang knew that Wei Chuan was creating an opportunity for him, and looked away embarrassedly.
Before leaving the playground, Meng Tang called the teacher in front of Wang Jue and got approval for leave. Naturally, Shi Lan also asked for leave.
Wang Jue was like a clown, shouting at the remaining students to continue practicing, but few people listened to him.
Meng Tang was flanked by Wei Chuan and Shi Lan, one on each side. After chatting for a few words, they separated and went back to their dormitories.
When Xie Lingyin and Yang Ke came back from their elective course, they learned that Meng Tang was treating them to a meal, so they were very polite.
Shi Lan deliberately said: "Oh, alright then, it's a pity for the two handsome guys Wei Chuan and Xu Heqing, only Meng Tang and I can feast our eyes."
"Xu Heqing and Wei Chuan are going too?" Yang Ke screamed.
Xie Lingyin turned her head slightly and listened attentively.
Meng Tang smiled and said, "It was Wei Chuan who took me to the hospital when I cut my hand. I wanted to treat him to a meal, but he was busy a few days ago, so it was delayed until today."
"I'll go, I'll go." Yang Ke pulled down her bun, "I have to take a shower, who wants to come with me?"
Xie Lingyin raised her phone and said, "I'm going out to make a call."
Shi Lan nodded and asked Meng Tang, "Do you think Lingyin is in a bad mood recently? She has a cold face all day long."
Meng Tang shook his head: "No."
"Wooden." Shi Lan belittled her.
Meng Tang lowered his eyes and smiled slightly, then took out a shirt and jacket from the closet.
The phone on the table rang. Meng Tang saw that it was Wei Chuan calling, so he picked up the phone.
"Xu Heqing has something to do in the External Relations Department. He'll probably be late. He'll take a taxi there himself."
It means agreed.
Meng Tang pursed his lips shyly and said, "Then can you go with me to order food first?"
Wei Chuan immediately understood what she meant. As Xu Heqing's roommate, he naturally knew what he liked to eat.
"Okay, I'll drive the car to the downstairs of Building 19 and wait for you."
