November in the capital was already starting to get cold. Qingshan's physique had been altered by the medicine bracelet in this life, so although her body temperature was low, she wasn't afraid of the cold. She wore a navy turtleneck sweater, a black, slim-fitting short leather jacket, and jeans. Her slim waist and long legs accentuated her figure, making it look incredibly well-proportioned. Passing students kept turning their heads.
As Qingshan was walking, two girls came towards him, talking excitedly:
"Oh my god, did you see his figure? He's like a model!"
"No, I was just focused on his appearance. He was so cool. I didn't even know who he was waiting for!"
"Hey, hey, hey, have you seen this handsome guy's car? It's a G-Class, worth over a million dollars. It's so rare to find such a young and wealthy man. I wonder what kind of woman could make him fall in love with her!"
Qingshan snorted, thinking to himself, "Another rich second-generation kid showing off his wealth at the school gate and flirting with innocent female students—truly immoral." However, he had seen several groups of girls with hearts in their eyes along the way, and Qingshan couldn't help but wonder what kind of dandy boy could be so charming. But had he come to the wrong place? Did he mistake Capital University for a Chinese opera?
As Qingshan walked out of the school gate, a boy's gentle voice came from behind him:
"Aoyama-chan—!"
Qingshan paused and frowned. Why is it him again!
Qingshan forced a smile, turned around, looked at the boy opposite him, and asked, "Senior, is there anything wrong?"
The boy was a gentle, fair-skinned man with a handsome appearance. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a scholarly air.
This man, Liu Zheng, studied Chinese and was one of Chen Qingshan's most devoted suitors. Liu Zheng was a clever man, well-versed in the art of communication. Knowing that Chen Qingshan disliked persistent pursuers, he adopted a conciliatory approach and spoke with measured discretion, always ending the conversation before Qingshan showed any signs of annoyance. Consequently, Qingshan had a good impression of him and would chat with him whenever he felt like it.
Liu Zheng saw Qingshan's pair of peach blossom eyes, full of affection and smile, staring at him without blinking. Before he could say anything, his body softened:
"No, it's okay. I was about to leave the school and saw someone's back that looked a lot like you. I called out your name in excitement, and I didn't expect it to be my schoolmate!"
Qingshan frowned and regretted deeply: If I had known earlier, I should have pretended not to hear it!
"Oh, it's okay, I'm leaving!"
"Hey, schoolgirl, where are you going? Since we've met, let's go together!"
"No need, senior, go and do your thing first. I'll go to the supermarket to buy some things."
When Liu Zheng heard Qingshan say he was going to the supermarket, his eyes lit up: "What a coincidence, I'm going to the supermarket too! Haha, we're really destined to be together. Junior sister, just take whatever you want to buy, and I'll pay for you!"
Qingshan suppressed the urge to roll his eyes: Tsk, I really want to use you to pay the bill. You think you can bribe me with such a small gift? You’re dreaming!
There's a large supermarket right outside the Capital University gates, where students usually go for their groceries, offering a one-stop shop for everything. However, if Qingshan and Liu Zheng were to go shopping together, rumors would circulate by evening that Chen Qingshan was already taken. Qingshan cursed his bad luck, thinking he'd have to walk a bit further and go to a different supermarket.
"Senior, I'm going to Carrefour. I have some personal matters to attend to. It's inconvenient for me to go with you. I'm really sorry."
Having said that, Liu Zheng couldn't insist any longer. His face darkened, and suddenly as if he remembered something, he took out his wallet, pulled out a shopping card, and handed it to Qingshan.
"Junior, this is a gift from Carrefour for sponsoring our club's last event. There's 500 yuan in it. I can't use it, so I'll give it to you!"
Qingshan smiled bitterly and thought to himself, what a coincidence! He goes to the supermarket when I go, and he has a card when I go to Carrefour. What's going on?
"Senior, this is too embarrassing, no, no—!"
Liu Zheng was acting a bit out of character today, completely lacking his usual tact. He insisted Qingshan accept the shopping card. Qingshan refused several times, but Liu Zheng got impatient and reached out to pull Qingshan's hand to slip the card in. But before he could even touch her, a hand as hard as a marble sculpture slapped him away, sending the card flying. Liu Zheng felt like his hand bones were shattering, and the pain nearly brought tears to his eyes.
"Who are you?"
Liu Zheng shook his red hands and looked up at the tall man in front of him.
The man took off his sunglasses in a cool manner and gave him a sinister smile:
"Police raid, show me your ID card!"
