Chapter 02 Chapter 2 I am responsible for making money to support you.
Hearing this question suddenly, Sheng Jianan paused and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
Jiang Chi was silent for a while, then he loosened his hand on his lower back, leaned on the table, tilted his head and smiled at Sheng Jianan: "What do you think those people who are in love think? College is such a critical stage. If we don't enrich our resumes and lay more stepping stones for the future, how can we be worthy of our parents who have worked so hard to support our studies?"
Sheng Jianan: “…”
I didn't expect that the young master of a wealthy family who spends money like water could have such a sensible and considerate side. My uncles and aunts all cried after hearing this.
"I definitely won't date in college anyway, so why not do something else with this time?" Jiang Chi said, "What do you think?"
Sheng Jianan lowered his eyes and said nothing. Jiang Chi deliberately pinched his waist.
Sheng Jianan finally reacted, grabbed his hand, and looked sideways at him: "Are you sure?"
Seeing his suspicious look, Jiang Chi found it funny and turned to him: "What do you mean, Sheng Jianan, you don't trust me? Do you think I would be willing to leave you and fall in love?"
Seeing that Sheng Jianan hadn't said anything, Jiang Chi didn't know whether to be angry or amused: "You really don't believe me? How did I make you feel like you want to fall in love? From childhood to adulthood, I have never met a girl who made my heart beat."
Because your crush is on a boy.
Sheng Jianan added silently in his heart, picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip, and said: "No one can say what will happen in the future."
Jiang Chi looked at him for two seconds, then approached him dangerously: "Are you thinking of falling in love?"
Sheng Jianan glanced over and saw Jiang Chi staring at him intently, as if he was afraid to see him show any sign of wanting to admit it.
"...No." Sheng Jianan gave him a reassuring answer, "I haven't thought about it yet."
"That's fine." Jiang Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and now he was in the mood to chat and laugh, "You want to be a great painter, your time is precious, you can't waste it on such mundane things."
"...What about you?" Sheng Jianan asked.
"Me? I already have you, why would I talk about love? Of course I am here to protect you." Jiang Chi felt happy just thinking about this picture, and said happily, "You are responsible for being beautiful, and I am responsible for making money to support you."
At this moment, there was a sound of the door opening. It was their roommates San San and Lu Yu who came back. San San's original name was Tan Jiashan. Because the name was too difficult to pronounce and the word "shan" seemed too feminine, he was nicknamed San San. Lu Yu took his parents' surname.
As soon as the two opened the door and saw the situation inside, they started joking as usual.
"Did we come back at the wrong time?" Lu Yu said with a smile.
San San followed closely and said, "I asked you to accompany me to the supermarket, but you didn't go. You'll come back and disturb the love between the young couple."
The two walked to their seats while talking, and when they saw the desserts and snacks on the table, they knew they were made by Sheng's mother, and they thanked Sheng Jianan with a smile.
San San picked up a piece of snowflake crisp and put it in his mouth, then remembered something: "Oh, Jiang Chi."
He turned around and said hesitantly, "A junior student you know asked me for your phone number. He said he liked you very much and pestered me for a long time. I didn't agree, so he insisted that I pass it on."
Hearing this, Lu Yu shook his head speechlessly.
Jiang Chi didn't react, and he was still teasing Sheng Jianan, saying in a very calm tone: "What does it have to do with me?"
As they expected, San San subconsciously looked at Lu Yu.
In fact, he didn't want to convey it. They had been in the same dormitory for more than a year, and everyone knew that Jiang Chi hated gays. His expression became very ugly when the word gay was mentioned, let alone being confessed to. It is said that something seemed to have happened before.
But San San was soft-hearted and could not stand being provoked. He looked at Jiang Chi's expression when he provoked Sheng Jianan, and suddenly remembered what that junior said -
"Is Jiang Chi straight? Look at the way he treats Senior Sheng. Do you believe him when he says he is straight? He is more like a closeted person."
In fact, in the year they first entered the school, many people in the school thought that Jiang Chi and Sheng Jianan were a couple. Their outstanding looks even caused quite a stir in Xia University.
At that time, someone took a photo of their backs and submitted it to a blogger who specializes in collecting beautiful and handsome college students from all over the country.
[There is a pair of boys among the freshmen in our school. Both of them are very handsome. They go in and out together every day and have never been separated. One evening, I happened to run into them head-on. The taller one was smiling and kept moving towards the cool and handsome guy next to him. His eyes seemed to be glued to the guy, and he kept hugging him as he walked. I was staring at them so much that I almost forgot to leave. The sun had just set at that time, shining on their shoulders and making the tips of their hair look a little orange. The picture was so beautiful. I was thinking at that time that novels are based on reality. I was grateful that I had worked hard to be admitted to Xia University and to see this beautiful scene. I will remember it forever]
At that time, this post received hundreds of thousands of likes and attracted countless netizens to criticize it, including some students from Xia University.
However, as time went on, and everyone became familiar with their way of getting along, they gradually came to believe that they were really just good brothers who could wear the same pants.
However, since learning that they are not a couple, their respective suitors have become more and more impatient recently.
Noticing San San's gaze, Jiang Chi glanced away, then said indifferently, "No, ignore it."
San San knew that he had given her enough face, so he smiled and said, "I know, I have already refused."
After saying that, he immediately turned to Sheng Jianan with a smile and said, "Jianan, don't ask us to pass on messages in the future. You don't even know that you were away all morning, and someone has lost his appetite. We all feel guilty about it."
As expected, when it came to Sheng Jianan, Jiang Chi became very easy to talk to. He smiled and threw a piece of snowflake crisp at him: "If you can talk, say a few more words."
San San took it and said, "Hey."
Lu Yu also laughed, turned around, and said jokingly: "Yes, if you want to go out alone in the future, you must first appease this person at home. We can't do such a thing."
As they said this, they turned their teasing eyes to Jiang Chi, and saw him listening to their teasing with a smile, and seemed to be quite happy with what they said.
-
In the evening, the two ordered stir-fried dishes in the cafeteria. One plate of boiled fish and four plates of stir-fried dishes.
Jiang Chi searched in the big bowl, picked out a few pieces of the tenderest fish and put them into Sheng Jianan's bowl.
Sheng Jianan has had a small appetite since he was a child and can’t eat much each time, so he has to rely on Jiang Chi to watch over him. Although Sheng Jianan couldn't finish it most of the time, the rest had to be eaten by Jiang Chi.
"Today's spicy chicken is cooked well." Jiang Chi picked up a piece of chicken leg and fed it to Sheng Jianan's mouth, "It's okay, not too spicy."
Sheng Jianan took a bite and commented: "Well, it tastes better than before."
Jiang Chi picked up another piece and fed it to him. He seemed to particularly enjoy doing this kind of thing. When Sheng Jianan was a child, he had a very poor appetite. After he went to kindergarten, his mother couldn't keep an eye on him all the time, so she could only ask little Jiang Chi to watch over him. This stare lasted for more than ten years.
At first, in order to thank Jiang Chi, Mother Sheng would always make some delicious snacks for him. Later, Xiao Jiang Chi became more and more proactive. When eating at the same table, he would always stare at Sheng Jianan while she was eating. Whenever there is something delicious at home, I will share it with him first and I will never eat it first.
Sheng Jianan couldn't eat, was not feeling well, and needed to see a doctor. Jiang Chi also insisted on going along, but in the end his family didn't want him to go alone as it would cause trouble, so he simply refused to eat. It wasn't until the evening when Sheng Jianan came back that she was so hungry that she swayed in front of him twice and almost fainted.
Later, Mother Sheng also understood that she didn't need to say anything. As long as it was Sheng Jianan's business, Jiang Chi would always keep it in mind first. As he grew older, he had to have regular checkups and take care of his body. All the things that were originally the responsibility of Sheng's mother were finally taken over by Jiang Chi. Mother Sheng was relieved.
Sometimes she thought it would be nice if the two children were a boy and a girl. Anyway, she felt that no one would treat Sheng Jianan better than Jiang Chi, and sometimes even she, as a mother, felt inferior to him.
"Senior Jiang Chi, are you eating here too?" A surprised voice came from the side.
Sheng Jianan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a junior from Jiang Chi's department not far away.
Jiang Chi was concentrating on doing something with his head down. Seeing that he didn't even raise his head, the junior waved to Sheng Jianan. He waved goodbye to the two girls beside him and walked towards the table under their envious gazes.
After coming over, the junior greeted Sheng Jianan, sat down in the empty seat next to Jiang Chi, and glanced to the side. He saw that the senior who always looked cool and handsome in his eyes was carefully choosing a plate of spicy chicken and was ignoring his voice.
The junior glanced at him and chatted with Sheng Jianan for some conversation. He is a talkative person. In the beginning, it was because he always went to Dormitory 508 to play with San San that he became a little familiar with Sheng Jianan and the others.
After sitting for a while, the junior couldn't hold back any longer. He deliberately propped up his chin with one hand, glanced at Jiang Chi, and lazily scolded him: "Senior Jiang Chi, don't you even say hello when you see me? That's too rude."
The junior's thoughts were obvious, and Sheng Jianan saw through them from the beginning. He also guessed it when he listened to San San's talk this afternoon. However, Jiang Chi is different from him. Before his love-sent servant appeared, Jiang Chi had no love cells at all and had no sensitivity in this regard.
As expected, Jiang Chi glanced at him sideways and said indifferently, "It's you."
He said this casually, as if he didn't care at all, and then picked up a piece of chicken thigh meat: "This window is too stingy. There are only a few pieces of chicken thigh meat on a plate of spicy chicken."
Sheng Jianan had already eaten several pieces and was just about to say, "You can have this one." Jiang Chi seemed to know what he was going to say, and when he opened his mouth, he directly stuffed the chopsticks into his mouth.
As the two looked at each other, Jiang Chi raised his eyebrows at him proudly and watched Sheng Jianan eat the piece of meat.
After finishing the meal, Sheng Jianan pushed the bowl in front of him and said, "I'm really full this time. Don't give me any more food."
Jiang Chi glanced at his bowl and saw that there was indeed not a grain of rice left. He picked up another piece of fish and said, "Take another bite. I can't finish this much by myself."
Sheng Jianan took a look at the fish and took a small bite reluctantly. Jiang Chi smiled and ate the remaining half of the fish without any hesitation.
The atmosphere between the two was too harmonious, and Jiang Chi's heart and eyes were only focused on Sheng Jianan, as if no one else existed. The younger brother didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment, so he could only stare at Sheng Jianan for a long time.
She is indeed better looking than him, and I cannot deny that. But it’s not as magical as it’s said to be. Doesn’t it just have two eyes, a nose and a pair of mouths?
When Sheng Jianan glanced over, the junior gave him a self-proclaimed friendly expression and lowered his head to eat.
Sheng Jianan glanced at him and looked away silently.
Jiang Chi finished eating soon, picked up the plate and was about to ask Sheng Jianan to leave, but only later did he notice that there was someone next to him.
"Let's go." Jiang Chi said to his younger brother.
The junior who was still considering whether to confess was encouraged by this greeting. He immediately mustered up the courage and called out to Jiang Chi: "Senior, wait a minute."
Jiang Chi tilted his head to look at him. Because of his condescending attitude, his eyes and eyebrows unconsciously revealed a sense of alienation: "What's the matter?"
The junior had just eaten sweet and sour pork and licked his lips, feeling a little nervous for a rare time.
He glanced at Sheng Jianan with a casual look, and said to Jiang Chi with a smile: "Senior, I added you on WeChat several times, why didn't you accept?"
Jiang Chi frowned, stood a little further away from him, took the half-pack of tissues that Sheng Jianan had placed on the table and threw it to him: "Oh, no need for WeChat."
Of course the junior brother could see that not only had he failed in seduction, but he was also being disliked, so he could only silently take out a piece of paper and wipe his mouth.
Jiang Chi is actually quite a troublemaker. Their childhood friend Ling Mo has scolded him like this many times. For example, if you see someone with some sauce on their face, you will feel disgusted and think it is dirty. He had to stay away from me next time when eating. Ling Mo was hit in the face with a tissue by him.
But it's different for someone else...
Jiang Chi's eyes moved, and he stretched out his hand in front of Sheng Jianan: "Don't move, there is a piece of chili on your mouth."
As he spoke, he gently flicked his lower lip twice with his knuckles. After wiping off the chili pepper, he showed it in front of Sheng Jianan to show that he was not lying.
After seeing this comparison, the younger brother was so angry that he couldn't eat.
"Is there anything else?" Jiang Chi asked.
The junior student lowered his eyes and continued, "But I saw you changed your profile picture these two days. It was a picture of your back."
At this point, Jiang Chi had something to say: "That's not my back. That's someone I secretly photographed. How about it? Not bad, isn't it?"
He looked at Sheng Jianan, the corners of his lips curled up, and even his tone was hinted at a smile, but he didn't know who he was talking to.
Sheng Jianan looked at him for two seconds and then turned his eyes away indifferently.
At this moment, he didn't know whether to pity his junior or himself. If he didn't already know the ending, he might not be able to control himself and confess to Jiang Chi. What will happen then? Will Jiang Chi hate him and stay away from him in advance?
After all, he is just a supporting role with a relatively large part in his world.
The younger student felt that he was simply humiliating himself, and his neck turned red. He really couldn't understand these two people. Neither of them looked straight, but they were so close but just wouldn't be together, which made others unable to help but get excited.
The younger brother simply stopped talking and cast his gaze on Sheng Jianan, hinting with his eyes that he should leave for a while.
Sheng Jianan was very considerate, picked up the plate, and said to Jiang Chi: "I'll wait for you outside."
Jiang Chi frowned subconsciously, and followed his figure as he walked out. He immediately lost his patience: "What's the matter? It's okay, I'm leaving first."
He said this and walked away.
This kind of opportunity is really rare, the younger student hurriedly followed and said: "Senior."
At this moment, Jiang Chi stopped. The junior thought he was willing to stop and listen to him, so he gritted his teeth and said in one breath: "Senior, I like you very much, from the first moment I saw you. At first I thought you and Senior Sheng were a couple, and I kept this feeling hidden in my heart. Later I heard Senior Sheng say that you were just good friends, and he would never be with you. That's why I..."
"What did you say?" Jiang Chi suddenly spoke.
The junior raised his head subconsciously, and saw Jiang Chi's dark eyes staring at him without any emotion. The junior swallowed nervously, and even his voice became softer: "I said I like you..."
Jiang Chi frowned even deeper, as if recalling something from the past, with undisguised disgust on his face: "What did Sheng Jianan say?"
"…Senior Sheng said that you are just good friends, you have always been, you are always, and you will never change."
Seeing that Jiang Chi was absent-minded, the younger brother followed his gaze and saw two girls standing in front of Sheng Jianan. The three of them were talking and laughing, and seemed to be having a good time.
When the junior brother looked away and wanted to say something, Jiang Chi was no longer in front of him.
