Early in the morning, as the first rays of sunlight streamed into the room, Jiang Cheng slowly opened his eyes.
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and groggily fumbled for his phone next to his pillow.
I checked the time on my phone.
Jiang Cheng sat up in a daze.
He took a sip of water. Summers in the north are especially dry, and he would feel thirsty after waking up in the morning.
A new day was about to begin. Jiang Cheng spent about ten minutes washing up, frying two eggs in the kitchen, and taking out some bread from the refrigerator to prepare a simple breakfast.
Xiao Li was still sleeping in.
After tidying everything up, he opened the wardrobe and took out a T-shirt and jeans.
As soon as Jiang Cheng put on the T-shirt, he suddenly felt an itchy sensation on his neck, as if there were insects or something. He quickly reached out and touched it.
The sensation coming from his fingertips wasn't an insect; he held the strange thing close to his eyes.
It was just a single hair!
And it was very, very long black hair.
Jiang Cheng stared in astonishment for a while, wondering why there was such long hair on his clothes when he hadn't been in contact with any girls recently.
I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't come up with an answer.
He tossed his head, threw his hair into the trash can by the bed, slung his bag over his shoulder, and stepped out the door.
A moment after Jiang Cheng stepped out of his door.
Xiao Li's door... opened.
······
It seems like it rained last night. The air outside is very fresh, the sky is blue, and the sun shines down mercilessly.
Lanjing Science and Technology College was spotless, having been thoroughly and meticulously cleaned.
Groups of students were already heading to their early classes along the tree-lined avenue, creating a thriving scene.
Jiang Cheng encountered his roommates, who were fooling around, at the same time as usual. Liang Gu and Tao Ming still looked the same as before, with dark circles under their eyes. It seemed that they hadn't slept for more than a few hours yesterday and would definitely have to catch up on sleep during class.
As he was walking forward, a shout suddenly made him stop in his tracks.
"Jiangcheng~"
The shout was crisp and melodious, with a hint of sweetness.
Everyone turned around and saw Zhao Xuerou, who was dressed in white sneakers and casual clothes and looked very beautiful.
The moment Jiang Cheng saw her, his gaze involuntarily fell on her gray pants. Only her snow-white ankles were exposed, and her legs were incredibly long.
"Wait for me, let's go together."
As she spoke, Zhao Xuerou grabbed her best friend and jogged over to them, giving him a smile that was infectious and revealed her charm.
Jiang Cheng didn't want to wait, but Liang Gu suddenly grabbed him and whispered:
"It's fine if you're not interested in her, but have you noticed Zhao Xuerou's best friend?"
"What's wrong?" he glanced at her.
"What? What happened?"
As Liang Gu spoke, he drew an "S" shape in the air with his hand.
Then she excitedly poked his shoulder, "Curves! Curves, bro! Her name is Liu Mengke, you know her, right? She's famous for her devilish figure on campus, my type, you know what I mean." He raised an eyebrow.
Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes, but still stopped in his tracks.
The second brother is good for nothing else, but when he sees a girl he likes, he's so passionate that not even eight horses could pull him away.
The six of them gathered together and walked along the road.
Liang Gu lived up to his reputation as the king of flirting, striking up a conversation with Liu Mengke in just a few words. They chatted and laughed, attracting the attention of passing students who would occasionally turn their heads to look.
Jiang Cheng walked along with his bag on his back, looking indifferent. Zhao Xuerou came over and asked, "Have you finished writing the textbook for me, Jiang Cheng? How difficult was it?"
"It's alright, not too difficult."
"Then I'll print out enough copies and distribute them to our class so everyone can do it."
"OK."
He stared straight ahead, not even glancing at Zhao Xuerou. He answered each question with a single sentence, as if the school beauty, who was admired by everyone, held no appeal whatsoever in Jiang Cheng's eyes.
Trying to act aloof, huh?
She snorted coldly in her heart and quietly leaned close to Jiang Cheng's ear.
As Jiang Cheng was walking, he suddenly felt a fragrant breeze waft by his side, followed by warm breath on his ear. "Are you still looking at legs tonight?"
He caught his breath, frowned, and turned to look at her.
Zhao Xuerou smiled sweetly, gently curving her lips into a playful smile.
This reminded Jiang Cheng of the set of private leg photos from last night.
He coughed lightly twice, then quickened his pace.
Surprisingly, a Mercedes-Benz was driving on the tree-lined avenue. It is rare to see vehicles on school grounds, partly for student safety and partly for the sake of school discipline.
Clearly, the driver was no ordinary person.
Qi Feng sat in the driver's seat, driving leisurely. He rarely came to school, and it was good if he came once every three days. However, he came very frequently when he was pursuing Zhao Xuerou.
He felt a secret thrill as he watched the students passing by stare at his car.
This was also one of Qi Feng's purposes in coming to school: to gain attention in this ordinary campus and satisfy his vanity.
As he was walking, his gaze suddenly locked onto a group of men and women ahead. He recognized the person walking very closely in the middle.
Jiangcheng, Zhao Xuerou.
In an instant, his gaze turned gloomy.
"Oh, you two! You're so inseparable now, aren't you? Even going to the classroom together in the morning?"
"That Zhao Xuerou is really despicable. She spent two months of her time and money on her, and in the end, she got nothing! She just went and got together with that peasant."
Jealousy instantly consumed Qi Feng's heart.
"Jiang Cheng! What do I lack compared to you? She'd rather be ignored and follow you around than be with me!"
This thought occurred to him, and he hated Jiang Cheng to the core. Seeing this scene annoyed him to no end.
Qi Feng floored the accelerator and sped off, completely disregarding the fact that this was a tree-lined avenue where students gathered in small groups.
Because it had just rained last night, there were still puddles on the ground that hadn't dried, reflecting the sycamore leaves hanging high in the sky.
The roar of a high-speed Mercedes filled the air as it sped through the crowd!
A splash of rainwater erupted!
It was flung onto the students on the roadside with a "whoosh".
Liang Gu and Jiang Cheng were no exception!
Exclamations rang out as rain splashed down their bodies!
After a brief moment of shock, someone started swearing.
"Who is this guy?! Doesn't he have any manners at all, racing cars on campus?!"
"You idiot! You've gotten my pants all dirty. Why didn't you get run over and killed while you were driving so fast!"
"Doesn't the school do anything about it? They just openly do this on campus! It's disgusting to see people like this."
"Are you driving so fast because you're rushing to be reborn?"
A chorus of curses erupted, and Qi Feng had incurred the wrath of the crowd. But he couldn't hear them and left triumphantly.
Jiang Cheng frowned and looked at the mud spots stuck to his pants.
Zhao Xuerou took out a tissue from her pocket, opened it and handed it to Jiang Cheng. She also took one for herself and carefully wiped the mud off her body.
He didn't say anything, and took it.
