All four of them thoroughly enjoyed the meal.
However, Xu Jianian, though he didn't show anything on the surface, was secretly a little unhappy.
Although Jiang Sheng seemed to be fine, and even had a solution to the problem.
Moreover, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But for some reason, Xu Jianian felt somewhat unhappy.
She had been worried about Jiang Sheng for so long, but who knew that Jiang Sheng wasn't worried at all from beginning to end, and had already come up with a solution.
If she and Su Ruoxue hadn't gone to see Jiang Sheng today, she wouldn't have known that Jiang Sheng already had a solution to this matter.
And it made me worry so much.
However, Xu Jianian quickly put the matter out of his mind.
Throughout the meal, Jiang Sheng maintained a gentle smile, remaining polite and gentlemanly from beginning to end, which quickly dispelled Xu Jianian's disappointment.
Perhaps... the other person simply didn't want me to worry.
When it was all over and both sides were preparing to leave, Xu Jianian couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"By the way, Jiang Sheng, you said you have a way to deal with Teacher Zhou. I'm a little curious. Could you tell me, or us, about it?"
Jiang Sheng knew Xu Jianian would ask, and since he had already told Zhao Defu, he simply gave Xu Jianian the second half of the poem he had written.
When Xu Jianian and Su Ruoxue both saw the second half of the poem, they couldn't help but show the same expression and reaction as Zhao Defu had back then.
After reaping another wave of praise and admiration, Jiang Sheng scratched his head somewhat guiltily, but then smiled calmly.
"Actually, I didn't expect this day to come. I just wanted to keep a backup plan. It's really unexpected that it has come in such a useful way today."
Faced with Jiang Sheng's modesty, the two girls naturally praised him again without hesitation.
As for Xu Jianian, after seeing the second half of the poem, he breathed a sigh of relief and was completely at ease.
She should be happy for Jiang Sheng because he has such talent.
Once the second half of the poem is published, everything will fall apart, and it will be clear who the true owner of this poem is.
No wonder Jiang Sheng was so confident; it all stemmed from the second half of the poem in his hands!
Seeing the admiration and appreciation on her good friend's face, Su Ruoxue smiled to herself, but turned her attention to Zhao Defu.
"Zhao Defu, I see a teahouse not far away, but I don't want to go there alone. Why don't you take me there and we can go for a walk?"
Zhao Defu, being as shrewd as a man, understood Su Ruoxue's meaning quickly after hearing her words and glancing at the two people beside him who were enthusiastically discussing poetry.
"No problem! I was just thinking of going to a teahouse to sit and rest for a while."
After saying this, Zhao Defu glanced at his friend beside him, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, but there was a deeper meaning in his eyes.
"Brother Sheng, I'm going to the teahouse with Su Ruoxue for a bit. You and Xu Jianian can continue chatting about poetry. Just call us when you're done!"
Zhao Defu looked like he didn't want to stay there anymore and was fed up with what he was saying. After saying that, he quickly grabbed Su Ruoxue and ran away.
Jiang Sheng glanced helplessly at his friend's back, who had acted on his own initiative, then turned around and looked at the girl in front of him with admiration, and began to patiently answer Xu Jianian's question.
"The schools of poetry you just mentioned do indeed have some differences..."
As Jiang Sheng explained in detail, Xu Jianian's slightly flushed cheeks quickly returned to normal, and she began to listen attentively to Jiang Sheng's explanation.
By the time Jiang Sheng was also feeling a bit unsatisfied, half an hour had already passed.
It was a little after six o'clock in the evening. Thinking that his older sister should have already gone home by now, Jiang Sheng didn't want to keep her waiting for dinner, so he took the initiative to say goodbye.
At this moment, Zhao Defu and Su Ruoxue were chatting enthusiastically in the teahouse. When they learned that Jiang Sheng was leaving, they were both a little reluctant to part, but they still made an appointment to meet again next time before they left.
Watching the two girls walk away, Zhao Defu felt reluctant to part with them. He glanced at Jiang Sheng beside him and couldn't help but complain.
"I'm saying, Sheng-ge, it's already late. Why don't we take the young lady home? What if something happens to her tonight?"
Jiang Sheng glanced helplessly at his good brother beside him. He hadn't expected that in just one hour, this kid had already fallen deeply in love with Su Ruoxue.
"It's only a two or three-minute walk from here to their apartment complex, which means it's just across the street. Do you expect me to take them all the way to their doorstep?"
In this era, the standards for male and female openness are very strict, not to mention...
Jiang Sheng looked at the residential area across the street, and then at the two little girls who had already entered the safe zone. He really didn't know how to criticize Zhao Defu.
Zhao Defu couldn't help but chuckle, a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Well, I just wanted to talk to Ruoxue a little more. Besides, Xu Jianian is so beautiful. Why didn't you seize such a good opportunity?"
"Tsk tsk," Jiang Sheng couldn't help but shake his head and complain, "It's only been an hour, and you're already calling her Ruoxue. You like her that much. Do you want me to play matchmaker for you?"
Zhao Defu, who had been happy, quickly waved his hand after hearing Jiang Sheng's words.
"Then maybe we shouldn't, Sheng-ge. Although I really like that girl, she's only a senior in high school right now, and I don't want to interfere with her studies."
These words puzzled Jiang Sheng, but they also filled him with admiration for Zhao Defu.
"Oh my, I didn't expect you to know so much about what it means to be considerate of others!"
Jiang Sheng couldn't help but look at Zhao Defu with newfound respect.
Zhao Defu quickly seized the opportunity: "That's right. No matter how much I like her, I have to wait until she gets into university. I can't delay her studies; that would ruin her!"
Jiang Sheng couldn't help but shake his head with a smile, and chatted and laughed with his good brother all the way home. Soon they were back home.
Because Zhao Defu had been staying at Jiang Sheng's house for the past few days, he greeted Zhao Nianmeng naturally when he returned home, just like always.
"Big sister, we're back!"
Zhao Nianmeng responded to Zhao Defu with a gentle smile.
"It's good that you're back. You and Xiaosheng should wash your hands and eat quickly. You don't need to wait for your second sister today; she has to work overtime."
