Sun Chunjuan also sensed that something was amiss. She subconsciously glanced at Jiang Sheng beside her and saw a hint of unease on his face, which made her understand what was going on.
Sun Chunjuan smiled and glanced at Xu Jianian in front of her, pretending not to notice, and simply nodded.
"Great! So you're friends of Zhao Defu and Jiang Sheng. Since you're here to see Zhao Defu, let's go into the school together. I'll take you there."
Sun Chunjuan wore a faint smile and behaved very appropriately from beginning to end.
Looking at the smile on Sun Chunjuan's face, Xu Jianian felt increasingly uncomfortable.
She bit her lip slightly to hide the bitterness in her heart, but didn't even look at Jiang Sheng, only nodding slightly to Sun Chunjuan.
"Then thank you, student."
If Jiang Sheng and Sun Chunjuan hadn't been there, Xu Jianian would have almost burst into tears.
But she kept enduring it, while Su Ruoxue, who was standing next to her, wanted to argue with Jiang Sheng right then and there, seeing her good friend being so wronged.
But just as she was about to speak, Xu Jianian grabbed Su Ruoxue's wrist and gently shook his head at her.
"Xue'er, I know you and Jiang Sheng have a conflict, but we're here to see Zhao Defu today. Besides, Jiang Sheng hasn't done anything wrong. Please forgive him, okay?"
There are two meanings to this statement.
The first layer of meaning is that Xu Jianian wanted to cover up his unbearable feelings because Sun Chunjuan was there.
As for the second layer, it was simply to tell Su Ruoxue that she and Jiang Sheng were just friends, and there was nothing else between them. It seemed that she had no right or qualification to be angry about this matter.
Seeing the pleading look in Xu Jianian's eyes, Su Ruoxue felt a pang of heartache, but ultimately nodded.
"Alright then," Su Ruoxue still snorted unhappily, and glared at Jiang Sheng again: "We're here to see Zhao Defu today, so we'll have to trouble you."
Seeing Su Ruoxue's angry expression, Jiang Sheng knew that this misunderstanding would probably not be cleared up in a short time.
So he could only nod, a wry smile on his face.
"Okay, Zhao Defu should still be in the dormitory. Come with me."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xu Jianian with a hint of hesitation, but ultimately said nothing.
After all, Sun Chunjuan was with him, so even if he wanted to explain, there was nothing he could do at this point.
As for Xu Jianian, although he had clearly noticed Jiang Sheng's gaze, he pretended not to see it, only holding Su Ruoxue's arm and talking to Su Ruoxue while occasionally chatting with Sun Chunjuan.
“Excuse me,” Xu Jianian suppressed his displeasure and looked at Sun Chunjuan beside him, “I wonder what your major is?”
Sun Chunjuan smiled slightly, pretending not to know anything despite clearly sensing the subtle atmosphere, her face adorned with a sweet smile.
"I'm a Chinese literature major, specializing in Chinese language. I don't know which school you're studying at or what your major is?"
Since she's not from their school, this girl must be from another school.
Thinking about it this way, Sun Chunjuan also became a little wary.
This girl is so beautiful, and she's also friends with Jiang Sheng.
She had to be careful. She had finally managed to get closer to Jiang Sheng, and she couldn't let Jiang Sheng ignore her again because of this girl.
"Strictly speaking, I should call you senior."
Xu Jianian has calmed down now. Although she is still slightly sad, she will not easily show it anymore.
She smiled at Sun Chunjuan and explained under the other's surprised gaze, "Actually, I am a student at Yanjing No. 1 High School. I am a senior this year and will go to university next year. However, my goal is Yanjing University. I hope you will give me some guidance then."
There was nothing wrong with Xu Jianian's words. On the contrary, Sun Chunjuan, looking at the girl in front of her, remained calm and composed from beginning to end, which made her even more wary.
She's so beautiful, and she's a student at Yenching No. 1 High School.
The fact that someone can speak so confidently about being admitted to Yenching University already indicates that their academic performance is also outstanding.
With such an outstanding girl, it's hard to guarantee that Jiang Sheng won't be tempted.
“So my classmate is still in her senior year of high school,” Sun Chunjuan said admiringly. “That classmate must have excellent grades. When I took the college entrance exam, my grades were so low that I barely made it to Yenching University.”
Sun Chunjuan sighed as she spoke, as if she truly felt some regret at the moment.
Jiang Sheng, watching Sun Chunjuan's performance from the side, felt nothing but irony.
She was clearly not a student at Yenching University, and was actually Sun Chunli's younger sister.
From beginning to end, he really behaved no differently from a real college student.
It seems this woman has really gone to great lengths to get close to him.
“Sun classmate,” Jiang Sheng glanced at Xu Jianian, who was walking forward with them, and after a moment’s hesitation, he spoke up: “I have something to do later and need to see my third sister. I’m afraid I won’t have time to have dinner with you, Sun classmate. I’m really sorry.”
Sun Chunjuan immediately understood the subtle hint that she should leave.
Although she was very unwilling, seeing Jiang Sheng's warm smile and the fact that his eyes seemed to only have eyes for her, she couldn't help but admire him.
Sun Chunjuan was instantly captivated, and feeling extremely pleased with herself, she nodded without hesitation.
"It's alright. Jiang, are you free tonight? If you are, I'd like to invite you out for dinner."
Anyway, Jiang Sheng already seems to have a lot of feelings for me, so what if the girl next to me is beautiful?
She's just a high school senior, a little girl. If Jiang Sheng is afraid of ruining his reputation, he will definitely not have much contact with her.
Sun Chunjuan was filled with confidence, while Jiang Sheng smiled gently at her, his words full of seduction.
"Tonight might not be an option, but I'm free tomorrow at noon. If you're free too, how about we go out for dinner together?"
Sun Chunjuan was initially somewhat unhappy because of the previous sentence.
Upon hearing Jiang Sheng's invitation, and seeing the faint smile on his face, Sun Chunjuan's heart pounded rapidly, and she subconsciously nodded.
"Okay, then I'll see you there!"
With a smile, Sun Chunjuan bid farewell to Jiang Sheng, then said goodbye to Xu Jianian, who was forcing a smile. With a satisfied smile on her face, she turned and left.
