Ning Yuan always has someone around him who can put his heart and soul into his life: the former guesthouse chef, Principal Zhu, and now her roommate!
Rong Zhaonan looked at Yan Yangyang, who even seemed to be asking for credit, and smiled as he took a deep breath—
"Ning Yuan is still young and has just entered university. Her family doesn't want her to fall in love so soon. They want her to focus on her studies first. I'm leaving this task to you. Is that okay?"
"Yes, Chief Instructor!" Yan Yangyang immediately saluted solemnly.
Ning Yuan: "..."
Her language was silence.
Rong Gou has always been good at manipulating people!
She couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed Yan Yangyang and pulled her aside, lowering her voice and gritting her teeth—
"Sister, you wouldn't have fallen for my cousin, would you? He may look presentable, but he's ruthless and cruel. Besides, he's not in the army; he's just a temporary worker!"
Rong Zhaonan keeps saying he retired a long time ago and has never returned to the team!
Yan Yangyang's eyebrows furrowed instantly, and he reached out and grabbed Ning Yuan's head.
"What are you saying, girl? Don't let vulgar love tarnish my respect for the instructor. I grew up in this compound, and the aura he exudes is definitely the result of countless battles. How could he possibly be a temporary worker!"
Although Yan Yangyang was born into a wealthy family in Beijing, she was forced to learn dance from a young age and lived at school to practice dance from a very young age.
I've never seen Rong Zhaonan's "charm" back then, when he was invincible among the children of the compound and caused trouble everywhere.
Ning Yuan was almost crushed to death by Yan Yangyang's strong arm. She hurriedly said, "Okay, okay... cough cough... I was wrong, I was wrong!"
"Anyway, you're still young, you're not allowed to date in your first year of college!" Yan Yangyang finally let go and dragged the sullen Ning Yuan back.
Ning Yuan: "Sister, I'm 20..."
My roommate has only met Rong Gou twice, and he's already become his die-hard fan and even helps him spy on me. It's unbelievable!
Seeing this, Jin Bianjiang smiled faintly: "Chief Instructor is joking. Ningning and I just hit it off and got along very well. I will take care of her like a younger sister in the future."
Jin Bianjiang heard that the chief instructor of this military training had a relative among the freshmen, but he didn't expect it to be Ning Yuan.
He wanted to get closer to Yangyang indirectly through Ning Yuan, but he didn't want her to misunderstand.
Hearing Jin Bianjiang call Ningning by her name and treat her like a younger sister, Rong Zhaonan narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Ha... Ning Yuan and I have slept in the same bed, done almost everything, and now she still calls me cousin.
He was a nobody, yet upon first meeting Ning Yuan, he instantly took her in and called her "little sister."
Ning Yuan, who is usually so guarded, actually didn't refuse...
Rong Zhaonan glanced at Ning Yuan, who seemed lost in thought, and frowned slightly. "Grandpa and Grandma want you to go home."
Ning Yuan was too lazy to speak, so she just nodded and hummed lazily, "I know, cousin."
Jin Bianjiang keenly sensed the chief instructor's coldness and displeasure towards him.
Perhaps it's because men with younger sisters who are just coming of age are afraid that their little girls will be taken advantage of by men.
Moreover, Ning Yuan is indeed a lovely and vibrant girl who makes it easy for people to like her.
He smiled at Ning Yuan and Yan Yangyang and the others: "You all have military training tomorrow. The head instructor is right, it's nine o'clock, everyone should go home early."
Jin Bianjiang was a student leader, and after he said that, the social gathering ended.
Anyway, by this time, everyone who was supposed to recite poetry, sing, or dance has already finished.
If two senior and junior brothers and sisters really hit it off, they've had enough time to arrange a second meeting.
Ning Yuan followed Rong Zhaonan to the teachers' dormitory.
Yan Yangyang waved vigorously at Rong Zhaonan: "Chief Instructor, thank you for bringing Ning Yuan back. See you tomorrow!"
Chu Hongyu twisted her waist and snorted, "Tomboy, are you still posing here? Go back to the dorm!"
"Zhataixing" is a Shanghai dialect term meaning to show off.
Yan Yangyang rolled her eyes at her: "You stole the show tonight!"
At least half of the boys tonight are there for Chu Hongyu.
The two bickered as they walked back, carrying the various snacks their senior brothers had given them.
Meanwhile, Ning Yuan followed Rong Zhaonan towards the teachers' dormitory.
Fuda Road is lined with trees, the sycamore leaves sway in the wind, and the streetlights emit a dim yellow light.
The two of them didn't speak a word the whole way.
If you think about it, they haven't seen each other for three months, except for the night Ning Yuan had her accident.
Rong Zhaonan also left that night.
The familiar figures and scents around her made Ning Yuan's originally calm heart start to beat a little erratically.
"Are you alright? Does your wound still hurt?"
The night breeze, carrying the scent of the small lake, swept across the seemingly distant yet close distance between the two, and he finally spoke first in a gentle tone.
Ning Yuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, everything is ready."
The soft tissue contusions and superficial injuries healed very quickly. Because of this, Grandma Xia even insisted that she must start learning medicine from her.
You should at least know basic self-protection skills.
There were hardly any people on the way to the teachers' dormitory. When she was almost there, Ning Yuan stopped in her tracks.
Rong Zhaonan turned around, looking at her with a deep gaze: "Why aren't you leaving?"
Ning Yuan raised her pretty face and suddenly asked, "Rong Zhaonan, I want to know what's going on with all this charade you've been putting on today, you..."
She paused, lowering her thick, long eyelashes to conceal the difficulty and complexity in her eyes—
"You...didn't you say we were getting a divorce by the end of the year? Why did you suddenly appear at Fudan University and claim to be my cousin?"
The light was too dim for Rong Zhaonan to see the emotions in the girl's eyes.
She just felt that she didn't want her ex-boyfriend to reappear and disrupt her social gathering!
Rong Zhaonan's voice turned cold: "What, you don't want me to appear in front of you so much, is it because you can't wait to find a new lover who can agree to your new conditions and ideas?"
Ning Yuan felt somewhat embarrassed. His words made it sound as if she were some kind of promiscuous woman: "Rong Zhaonan, you..."
Rong Zhaonan coldly said--
“I have already discussed this with you. Before I complete my mission at the end of next year, I will make sure that the people in the capital stop trying to control me through marriage. Our marriage will continue until the end of next year.”
"I've already paid the money, and you've agreed not to cause any scandals that would give them leverage against you. Do you think you're suitable to participate in a matchmaking event?"
The thought of those boys fawning over her made him feel a burning cold fire in his heart.
From its inception, this university has been a place where new ideas and ideologies were raised throughout the country.
She might actually find a compatible new partner here, and she might not be able to.
Ning Yuan clenched her fists, held back her anger, took a deep breath, and said expressionlessly—
"Okay, it was my oversight, but Rong Zhaonan, if you keep getting emotional like this and speaking so sarcastically, there's no point in us communicating anymore!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked away, faster and faster.
All the discomfort I felt throughout the day because of his fluctuating emotions turned into quiet joy when I saw him.
All of this has turned into not wanting to see him anymore, not wanting to hear him speak anymore... not wanting!
But the next moment, a hand swiftly grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back, forcefully stopping her in her tracks.
