Chapter 69 Marriage

Professor Jiang

Chi Dong hurriedly shook his head and replied with a smile, "I'll be there right away. Who are these two?"

"Oh, let me introduce them to you. They are the vice president of our club and her friend. We happened to meet here, so we talked about the club's term change." Lin Jie smiled and said a few simple words, then urged him to go to the bathhouse quickly.

Chi Dong knew Lin Jie's good intentions, so after politely saying goodbye to a few people, he hurried to the bathhouse not far away.

At this time, the girl in the light blue jacket opposite Lin Jie blinked and asked with a smile: "Who is this boy? He looks pretty good. Why haven't I seen him before?"

Lin Jie touched his red nose and answered casually, "My roommate, Chi Dong."

The girl hesitated: "Then he..."

Lin Jie looked at them in confusion: "What's wrong with him?"

Another girl couldn't stand it anymore and asked directly: "She wants to ask you, does your roommate have a girlfriend?"

Lin Jie thought she was going to ask something else, but it turned out to be this, "No, I don't have a girlfriend yet."

The girl's eyes lit up slightly, as if she had heard something happy, and there was a hint of joy in her words, "Then can I..."

Before she could finish, Lin Jie added, "But he has someone he likes."

His words were like a bucket of cold water that poured directly over her head. Seeing this, her companions hurriedly comforted her, saying, "If you didn't catch her, you still have a chance."

After saying that, he turned to Lin Jie and said, "President, what do you think of my sister? Not only is she beautiful, she is also considerate and kind. She is a perfect match for your roommate. So, can you give me her contact information?"

On the other hand, Chi Dong didn't know that he had just gone to take a bath and chat for a few minutes, and suddenly he had a peach blossom. Chi Dong hurried to the bathhouse, and when he arrived, the bathhouse manager was about to close the door early. When he saw someone coming, he frowned and stopped, urging him to go in quickly.

After taking a shower and returning to the dormitory, Chi Dong's ears were slightly red. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Lin Jie lying on the table, wearing headphones and staring at his mobile phone intently. The greedy expression on his face was as if he saw gold everywhere.

Seeing how seriously he was looking at it, Chidong paused for a moment, did not make a sound to disturb him, turned around and closed the door, quietly put down the things in his hands, glanced down at the dirty clothes in the basin, and thought: Forget it, I won’t wash them for now, I’ll wash them tomorrow!

As a college student, it’s okay to be lazy occasionally!

Chi Dong happily climbed onto the bed and was about to lower the curtains and lie down to play with his phone. At this moment, Lin Jie heard the noise, looked up, and found that Chi Dong had returned. He quickly took off his headphones and called him.

"Xiaodong!"

Chi Dong put away the half-opened curtain and looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"Do you still remember the two girls I introduced to you just now?" Lin Jie showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. He pretended to be casual and looked at Chi Dong with an uncertain gaze.

Chi Dong thought about it for a moment, nodded and said, "I remember, but I didn't wear glasses at the time so I couldn't see them clearly. Was there something wrong?"

"Oh, that's what happened. Of the two girls you just met, one had short hair and a round face. She was pretty cute. Do you have any impression of her?"

Chi Dong was stunned for a moment, then said doubtfully, "I have an impression."

"Uh... she seems to have a crush on you. She just asked me for your contact information." Lin Jie paused, then quietly raised his eyes to observe Chi Dong's expression. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "But don't worry, I didn't give it to you. I won't give it to you without your consent."

"I'm just telling you this so you know, of course, uh... you, if you have other ideas, I have their phone numbers."

Chi Dong was a little surprised at first, but then seeing his nervous expression, the corners of his mouth could not help but slightly rise, revealing his neat white teeth. "It's okay, I'm just a little surprised that someone would like me."

Lin Jie was unhappy when he heard this. He thought Chi Dong was very good. He was better than others in terms of appearance, personality and academic performance. If he had to point out his shortcomings, it would be that he was too infatuated and too stupid. He was so stupid that he liked someone he had never met and who was most likely a straight man. He had liked her for three whole years. Every time he thought of this, Lin Jie felt as if the precious cabbage in his home had been eaten by a pig.

"Xiaodong, you are too self-deprecating. You don't even know that last time you forgot to wear your glasses, several girls in your class thought you were a handsome guy from another department and wanted to ask you for your contact information. Fortunately, the third brother and I saw them and helped you stop them, otherwise you would definitely be chased by them."

Chi Dong looked at him in shock. No wonder when the bell rang for the end of class, his third brother and he suddenly jumped out from the side, blocked his way inexplicably, and insisted that he go out through the back door. It turned out that it was because of this.

"Boss, thank you." Chi Dong was very grateful. He knew that Lin Jie and Zhou Yize were helping him. During that time, after he learned from the news that Bu Qianli was going to marry someone, he fell into confusion. His eyes were empty and depressed. He couldn't communicate with others at all. He even acted like a wandering soul in class. He either forgot to bring his textbooks or forgot to eat.

The news of the marriage directly hurt Chi Dong's eyes. He can still recall how he felt when he saw those four words. It was like a bolt from the blue, catching him off guard.

However, not long after, before he had recovered from the breakup, he heard the class discussing ET.'s clarification. All of a sudden, his mood brightened, and his eyes lit up with surprise, sweeping away the loss of the previous few days. It seemed as if the world had become brighter and more beautiful.

Chi Dong laughed at everyone he met, causing some classmates to think that he had won the lottery. They all ran to find Lin Jie and the other two to inquire about the news, and they made a lot of jokes.

Chi Dong recalled that he had been immersed in loss during those days and did not notice that so many things had happened. He felt very sorry.

"I'm sorry, I was..."

"What's there to be sorry about? You are our younger brother, and it is only natural for an older brother to take care of his younger brother!"

Lin Jie touched the back of his head with a silly smile on his face. They treated Chi Dong like their own younger brother. Last time, Chi Dong was working in a restaurant and was bullied but he didn’t tell them. Fortunately, they ran into Zhou Yize eating there and were able to get justice for him.

"Okay, let's stop talking. We all know who you like, so we won't make things complicated. Just go to sleep." Lin Jie yawned with his mouth open, a hint of sleepiness in his eyes, "I'm sleepy too. Turn off the lights and go to sleep. Good night."

Chi Dong also turned off the light on his side, "Good night, boss."

The next morning, Chi Dong turned off the alarm on his phone as if he was familiar with it. He had a habit in winter to put on his coat in bed before going downstairs to wash up, even though the dormitory was heated. When he finished tidying up and opened the curtains, Chi Dong was surprised to find Zhou Yize and Cheng Mo resting on his bed.

My sleep quality is usually very good in late winter, and I rarely suffer from insomnia. In addition, I went to bed early last night, so I didn’t know what time the two of them returned to the dormitory last night.

It's only 7:30 now. They have two professional classes at 9:30 today. The classroom is in the West District, and their dormitory is in the East District. The two districts are too far apart, so they will need to leave half an hour earlier to take a shuttle bus.

Chi Dong carefully climbed down the bed ladder, picked up the washbasin and ran out to the sink to brush his teeth and wash his face. He was afraid that washing in the dormitory would wake up the three of them, after all, there was no soundproofing here.

The soundproofing of the dormitory is so bad that even the voices of the people playing games in the next dormitory can be directly transmitted to their dormitory. The voices are clear and loud, without a trace of noise, as if they are talking next to you. I guess the school didn't build a soundproof wall in order to save money.

Chi Dong rubbed his cold hands and glanced at the screen of his mobile phone. It was only eight o'clock and it was still early. He lowered his head and thought for a few seconds and decided to go to the cafeteria to bring breakfast for his three roommates.

On the way there, he also happened to meet his elective course teacher, Professor Jiang Tian. The most important point was that he got the invitation letter in Professor Chen’s class last time, and Professor Jiang is Professor Chen’s wife.

They were a well-known loving couple in school. When walking on the street, people would often see Professor Chen, who was always strict with others, following Professor Jiang like a husky, with a smile and love on his face.

It was said that Professor Jiang thought he was too clingy and over-controlling, and would occasionally sneak to the snack street next to the school to buy food when he wasn't paying attention. Professor Chen was so angry that he went to the principal to complain and asked the principal to close the snack street. However, before the principal could say anything, the office door was kicked open by Professor Jiang.

She walked quickly forward in her high heels, pinched Professor Chen's ear, said a few words to the principal with a smile, and finally left with her stupid husband.

To Chi Dong, Professor Jiang is the best teacher he has ever met. Last semester, he took Professor Jiang's class. Because he was very interested in the class, he would always rush to sit in the first row every time he attended class.

At that time, Zhou Yize and Cheng Mo also chose this course, but they felt that sitting in the first row was too conspicuous, so they discussed with Chi Dong to sit in the back row. However, Chi Dong was silent for a while, and still rejected them, smilingly telling them to ignore him and just choose to sit somewhere else.

Zhou Yize and Cheng Mo looked at each other, shrugged helplessly, and sat down. With three people attending the class, they couldn't leave Chi Dong alone to sit there, that would be too disloyal. Besides, there was nothing wrong with sitting in the front row, and he could concentrate on the class, which was good.

Chi Dong always speaks actively in class and listens attentively. He looks like a well-behaved and sensible student. He is a good student that all teachers like, and of course, Professor Jiang is no exception.

When she saw Chi Dong for the first time, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart, but this did not affect her kindness towards him.
