Bai Yushu turned around and told the people behind him, then took the keys from Xu Xiu and prepared to drive.
Xu Xiu turned around and glanced at Yang Hong, "Senior, there aren't enough seats on the bus. You'll have to take a taxi home."
"By the way, I don't want everyone at school to know about tonight's events, so please keep it a secret. If I hear anything about it at school tomorrow..."
Xu Xiu immediately made a throat-slitting motion.
The men in black behind him also took a step forward. Yang Hong was so frightened that he sat down on the ground with a thud and quickly nodded to indicate that he would not tell anyone.
Xu Xiu's action startled Xiao Ruoyan and the others, making them hesitant to get on the bus.
"Everyone, get on the bus quickly, the food I'm holding is getting cold, let's go!"
Xu Xiu immediately switched back to his warm and gentle tone and expression.
After everyone got into the car, a black sedan followed one after the other, making quite a grand entrance.
The hot pot restaurant owner was called over, thinking something terrible was about to happen, but he ended up watching a show of showing off.
On the way, Xu Xiu couldn't help but scold, "Bai Yushu, I told you to come alone, why did you bring so many people? I was shocked, let alone them."
"Since it's not my money that's being spent, Mr. Xu, isn't that a bit impressive?"
Where did you find these people?
Xu Xiu asked in confusion.
"The new company's employees will each receive a 200 yuan bonus. The suits are the work uniforms I provide. The cars are provided by the employees themselves, and the fuel costs are extra."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruoyan and the others suddenly realized what was going on, and they all burst out laughing when they saw the academic genius's expression.
Xu Xiu looked like he'd really lost out, thinking to himself that he might as well have just hired a designated driver.
Bai Yushu led Xu Xiu and the others to the school gate and asked him to drive the car away. Xu Xiu said that he didn't need it recently and that it was not a good idea to leave it parked in the parking lot.
Let Bai Yushu drive it to the new company.
He had just gotten off the bus when he was run into by Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu, who were returning from an internet cafe.
"Holy crap, an Alphard!"
"What's going on with Lao Xu? And what were you doing with those girls?!"
Pang Wenjun was so excited that he became incoherent.
"Old Pang's driver is our high school classmate; he's treating us to dinner today."
"I just invited my secretary's roommate along the way."
"You beast... You invited Xiao's roommates but not us!!!"
Xiao Xu chimed in indignantly from the side.
Xu Xiu waved the dishes and milk tea in his hand, "Look at what you're saying, how could I forget my children...?"
Before Xu Xiu could finish speaking, Pang Wenjun covered his mouth, but not completely, letting in a little air.
Hearing Xu Xiu's words, Xiao Ruoyan and the others burst out laughing. They never expected that boys could talk so interestingly in private.
Xu Xiu was seen being dragged away by his two roommates, while Xiao Ruoyan and her roommates also returned to their dormitory.
As soon as Xiao Ruoyan arrived at the dormitory, everyone surrounded her, asking, "Ruoyan, tell us honestly, how far have things progressed between you and the academic genius?"
"Ah...no, we're just normal classmates."
Du Yuanyuan, with a knowing look on her face, continued to whisper in Ruoyan's ear, "Ruoyan, our future happiness depends on you."
"If you manage to beat the academic genius, we can benefit from it too."
An Yi and Ai Wenxiu also looked at her with expectant eyes.
"Ugh... why are you all looking at me like that? Even if I like him..."
Du Yuanyuan, acting like a cunning strategist, whispered in Xiao Ruoyan's ear.
Make her do this and that...
They even said that men and women are the same, and there's no such thing as love at first sight; it's all lust at first sight, or at most lust at first sight for money.
Although Xiao Ruoyan looked extremely ashamed, she still listened attentively to what Du Yuanyuan was saying. More than anyone else, she wanted to win Xu Xiu's heart as soon as possible.
She was thinking about it back in high school...
Back in the dormitory, drinking the milk tea and eating the dishes Xu Xiu had brought, Pang Wenjun and Xiao Xu wore servile expressions, showing none of the imposing manner they had displayed at the school gate.
When Wen Zhicai heard that Xu Xiu had gone out to eat with a girl, he thought of bringing them drinks and food and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Looking at the three people eating without any manners, Xu Xiu was filled with emotion. After adapting to the start of the semester for the past few months, he had gradually hidden away the sense of vicissitude he had brought from his previous life.
Start being that vibrant and energetic 18-year-old again.
As they ate, the three of them praised the food, saying, "This is the first time we've eaten hot pot ingredients brought back by someone else, and they're even cooked! The taste is really good."
"By the way, did your club sign up?"
Wen Zhicai said that although he studied computer science, he also enjoys reading. He joined the literary society.
The other two said they signed up for the comics club and the basketball club, respectively.
After saying that, he asked Xu Xiu which club he planned to join. Xu Xiu thought for a moment and said he planned to join the music club.
When they heard that Xu Xiu wanted to apply to the music department, the expressions on their faces were all strange.
"Old Xu, you can sing?"
"It's alright."
"That's perfect. Christmas is just around the corner, and the school is going to have a Christmas party. Our class monitor told us to write our own programs, and each class needs to write at least one or two programs."
Pang Wenjun said from the side.
"Alright, I'll prepare properly these next few days."
"Let me show you what the future pillars of the Chinese music scene are like."
Apart from Wen Zhicai, the other two spat out their milk tea.
"Don't you have any shame, Lao Xu?"
"What face do I need?"
"Why don't you believe me?"
"When girls start adding me on WeChat like crazy, don't come asking me for it."
"cut."
Both of them had a "I don't believe you" look on their faces.
Xu Xiu ignored them and went straight to bed after washing up.
Recalling the days when he was rejected by Liu Qianxue in his previous life and had a falling out with his family, he sang on the street and remembered the song he always sang (Suddenly I Miss You).
He wouldn't sing this song in this life, and as he thought about it, he drifted off to sleep.
"Why, why are you so stupid!"
Xu Xiu woke up in the middle of the night with a scream, which startled Pang Wenjun so much that he rolled off the bed. Luckily, he was on the lower bunk.
"What's going on? What's wrong, Lao Xu?"
Xiao Xu quickly turned on his phone's flashlight to shine on Xu Xiu, and Wen Zhicai also hurriedly got up. Everyone was too busy to put on their clothes. Although the dormitory had air conditioning, it wasn't very comfortable to turn it on in winter, so they didn't turn it on much on days that weren't too cold.
"Did Lao Xu have a nightmare?"
Pang Wenjun also got up from the ground and asked with a concerned expression.
Seeing the three people's somewhat anxious expressions through the dim light of his phone, Xu Xiu felt a warmth in his heart. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Pang Wenjun chattering incessantly beside him:
"Old Xu, you're our provider! You can't have anything happen to us. Without you, who will bring us good food and drinks?"
"Yeah yeah."
Xiao Xu chimed in from the side.
Xu Xiu kicked them, "Get back to sleep! If you get sick, who am I going to bring you food?"
Everyone thought it made a lot of sense, and they all quickly hid back under the covers.
The next day, Xu Xiu got up very early. He felt a bit of a headache, probably from drinking too much the night before, but he didn't think it was a big problem.
Wen Zhicai also got up and said he would accompany him to visit the music club.
The other two were asleep with their heads down, probably playing games until dawn.
