"Why don't you just go change your clothes? Besides, I'm a university professor and also your older sister."
"The school has regulations that allow family members of new students to leave the school when they come to visit."
So that's how it is.
After hearing Zhao Yiyan's explanation, Jiang Sheng nodded in understanding.
But then, looking at his sweat-soaked clothes, he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"Hey, Third Sister, can I go back to my dorm and take a shower? I'm all sweaty, and I can't let you down!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yiyan couldn't help but chuckle.
“That makes sense,” Zhao Yiyan smiled as she looked at Jiang Sheng, who was covered in sweat. “Then I’ll wait for you downstairs in your dorm. Go and come back soon.”
Upon hearing Zhao Yiyan's words, Jiang Sheng quickly nodded and dashed back to the dormitory building.
Their dormitory was empty at the moment; the three people must have gone to the cafeteria for a meal.
Jiang Sheng took a quick shower, soaped himself up, changed into some clean and neat clothes, and then hurried downstairs.
The whole process took no more than five minutes.
Seeing Jiang Sheng stride towards her with a radiant smile, she realized he didn't look like a teenager at all years ago.
Zhao Yiyan looked somewhat dazed and emotional until the other person stood in front of her, at which point a gentle smile appeared on her face.
"Xiao Sheng has really grown up and become more and more handsome."
With looks like that, he's bound to charm countless girls on this university campus.
Zhao Yiyan silently added this sentence in her heart, and then smiled and spoke to Jiang Sheng.
"Now that everything is ready, let's go out and eat."
Jiang Sheng blushed slightly at Zhao Yiyan's praise and quickly nodded.
"I don't know what's good or bad to eat around Yenching University, so I'll have to ask you for recommendations, Third Sister!"
Zhao Yiyan nodded upon hearing this and began to introduce the details as if they were her own treasures.
"If you're talking about the most famous place in Yanjing, it's not Quanjude's roast duck. The best place to eat hot pot is Fengzeju. I've already made a reservation, and I'm just waiting for you to come along, Xiaosheng."
"It's so good to follow Third Sister! She knows all the best places to eat in the entire Yanjing City!"
Jiang Sheng quickly praised Zhao Yiyan. Although he had lived in Yanjing for decades, he knew better than Zhao Yiyan, an old Yanjing resident, where to find good food.
But to be honest, it had been many years since he had eaten at Fengzeju.
The hot pot lamb was really delicious, especially when I went out to eat with my sisters, they mostly ate there.
Just thinking about this fills Jiang Sheng's heart with nostalgia.
When Jiang Sheng praised her like that, Zhao Yiyan couldn't help but smile.
"Your mouth is still as sweet as ever. I really don't know what you ate to grow up like this. Did you grow up eating honey?"
The siblings continued to praise each other, and soon arrived at the school gate, chatting and laughing.
Because Zhao Yiyan is Jiang Sheng's older sister, although they are not blood-related siblings, the security guards at the gate all know her because she is a school teacher, so they naturally believe what Zhao Yiyan says.
After greeting the security guard, Zhao Yiyan successfully led Jiang Sheng away from the school.
Before she had taken more than a few steps forward, Zhao Yiyan suddenly asked, as if she had just remembered something, "By the way, little brother, yesterday I asked a teacher named Zhang Sicheng to go see you. Did he come to see you?"
It would be better if this weren't brought up, because as soon as it's mentioned, Jiang Sheng feels very uncomfortable.
Even though he was uncomfortable, he didn't show it in front of Zhao Yiyan. Instead, he nodded, as if he had just remembered.
"Oh, you mean that Teacher Zhang? I almost forgot to tell you!"
Jiang Sheng nodded in sudden realization: "It was indeed a teacher named Zhang Sicheng who came to see me this morning during military training. He said he was your friend, Third Sister, and that I should just ask him for help if I need anything in the future."
At this point, Jiang Sheng scratched his head again and smiled sheepishly.
"My third sister is too busy with her own things, so I was thinking of asking Teacher Zhang to help you. I'm just in military training and don't have anything else to do, so there's no need to trouble you. Then I asked Teacher Zhang to leave first."
Hearing her younger brother's very understanding voice, Zhao Yiyan nodded, her face full of satisfaction.
Despite her relief, Zhao Yiyan still felt uneasy thinking about what Zhang Sicheng had said to her yesterday.
The reason she asked Jiang Sheng those questions was entirely because Zhang Sicheng had spoken to her that afternoon.
At the time, Zhang Sicheng told him that his younger brother seemed unwilling to have contact with him, so he couldn't force him and returned after chatting with the other party for a few minutes.
Today, she invited her younger brother to dinner. Besides wanting to catch up and have a good chat, she also wanted to take this opportunity to ask him what exactly happened back then, or if there was really some conflict between them.
But looking at Jiang Sheng now, he doesn't seem to have had any conflict at all. In fact, Jiang Sheng still has a shy smile on his face, which is obviously not what Zhang Sicheng said.
"That's good," Zhao Yiyan said with a smile, seemingly unintentionally adding, "Teacher Zhang is a bit straightforward. If anything he says makes you unhappy, just tell me, and I'll talk to him about it later!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng's heart sank slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his mind.
On the surface, these words were meant to stand up for Jiang Sheng, but Jiang Sheng could tell that Zhang Sicheng held a very high position in his third sister's heart!
Regardless of the circumstances, the fact that Third Sister still believed in him made Jiang Sheng feel at least a little better.
"I understand, Third Sister. But Teacher Zhang didn't force me at the time. I just wanted him to help you more."
Jiang Sheng scratched his head, looked at Zhao Yiyan with a puzzled expression, and asked, "But why did you suddenly ask this question, Third Sister? Teacher Zhang and I had a great chat yesterday, and we even made plans to have dinner together sometime in the future."
Seeing Jiang Sheng's puzzled look, Zhao Yiyan quickly waved her hand, using a smile to cover up her embarrassment and guilt.
"No, I was just saying it casually. Some people might find Teacher Zhang's personality offensive, so I just wanted to let you know. Don't take it to heart, little brother."
