Chapter 17 Meal Card
Xie Yu slept until the get out of class was over.
The university classroom had a kind of hypnotic power. The autumn sun was shining brightly, and when he woke up, he felt more comfortable than when he slept in a hotel.
My neck just hurts a bit.
The get out of class bell had just rung and the course was over, but there was still a circle of people around Shen Ci, all holding exercise books and waiting for him to explain the questions.
Shen Ci explained one by one, and the signature pen left beautiful words on the paper. Xie Yu rested his chin on his hand and watched, waiting for him to finish.
College students always have countless questions before the end of the semester. It was delayed for twenty minutes. Shen Ci paused with his pen and glanced at Xie Yu with a little uneasiness, afraid that he would get impatient.
According to Young Master Xie's temper, only others wait for him, not him waiting for others.
Xie Yu didn't care at all. He was emptying his mind, stuffing all the things like the drawer remote control into his bag, and quietly waiting for the last plot.
He had to forcibly drag Shen Ci out of the classroom in front of everyone.
In the original text, Chen Ci was considered a prominent figure in University A. Many people had a favorable impression of this aloof senior. Although he was born in poverty, he worked part-time while taking care of his grandmother, and his grades never fell behind. He received scholarships every year, and his juniors always admired him when they mentioned him.
And the original owner wanted to destroy this admiration.
Young Master Xie was an uneducated man who indulged in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He disliked good students, especially those self-righteous good students like Shen Ci. When he saw Shen Ci being surrounded and respected, he was so angry that he dragged him away without waiting for him to finish answering questions. His actions were rough and his methods were brutal. The original text described that Shen Ci was wearing something at the time and was almost knocked to his knees when he was dragged by him.
At that time, there were already many rumors about Shen Ci in the school, saying that he was clinging to thighs and acting like a duck. The original owner's words directly came true. Shen Ci's reputation was ruined, and even his tutor heard about it.
Mentor Shen Ci is a staid old scholar who values reputation the most. Many major projects later on intentionally or unintentionally avoided Shen Ci, turning him from the core of the laboratory into an insignificant marginal figure.
As time passed, the number of people answering questions gradually decreased. The system popped up and poked Xie Yu: "Why don't you do anything?"
Xie Yu observed calmly: "No hurry, wait a little longer."
"In front of everyone", it didn't say how many people were 'everyone'. Ten people were also a crowd, twenty people were a crowd, so two or three people were not a crowd?
Xie Yu kept his attention on the podium and did not notice that someone in the front row was looking at him.
Han Yunyun buried her face behind the textbook, leaving only a pair of big eyes with distinct black and white exposed, and was observing Xie Yu quietly.
She was also a teaching assistant, responsible for marking homework, and came to help Shen Ci. She noticed Xie Yu the moment he stepped into the classroom: this tall, handsome guy had a good-looking face, long legs, and drove a Bentley to school, so it was hard not to notice him.
Of course, what Han Yunyun cared more about was the scarf around Xie Yu's neck.
The scarf is made of excellent material and has fine fluff. It is from a niche luxury brand and is not cheap. As far as Han Yunyun knows, Senior Brother Shen cannot afford such a scarf, but now Senior Brother is wearing the same one as the handsome guy in the back row, so it can only be bought by the handsome guy in the back row.
Through the cover of the textbook, Han Yunyun's phone was about to spark.
"Li Yue, Li Yue! Do you still remember the handsome guy in the Bentley? The one who helped Senior Brother Shen wipe his hair! He came to school today!"
"Damn, I thought he was so handsome when I first saw him, and he's even more handsome in person!"
"He and Senior Brother Shen were wearing couple scarves! And! And! He even listened to Senior Brother Shen's entire class!!!"
"Pharmacokinetics! Such a boring class! I couldn't even listen to it! He! Finished! Listening!"
This course was notoriously boring. Even students at University A were unwilling to attend it and the absenteeism rate was high. There was once a record of 400 students enrolled in the course, but less than 100 showed up when the roll call was called. If it wasn't for the end of the semester, the classroom would be completely empty.
Han Yunyun: "Everyone on the forum is talking about keeping a mistress and having an agreement with a lover, but I said it's impossible."
With Senior Brother Shen's personality, how could he be kept by someone?
Although she didn't know what a real sponsorship agreement looked like, she had seen pigs run even if she had never eaten pork. There were so many agreements in movies and TV dramas. The rich family must be secretive about it, wishing they could be like the ancient emperors, wrapping their playthings in a quilt and carrying them to the bed. How could they wear couple scarves and walk around the city, and waste half a day to come to the classroom to listen to professional lessons?
She made the final decision: "It is definitely true love!"
At this time, most of the questions had been asked, and there were still a few people on the podium. Shen Ci was wiping the blackboard and collecting the chalk. Han Yunyun's eyes flickered to Xie Yu. Seeing that he was holding his chin in a daze and didn't pay attention to this side, she took a step forward, approached Shen Ci, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, is the particularly good-looking one in the back row waiting for you?"
Shen Ci paused slightly as he held the chalk in his hand: “Why are you asking this?”
Not denying it means you have agreed to it.
Han Yunyun's curiosity was burning, so she moved closer. She avoided Xie Yu, half covered her face with her textbook, and whispered, "Brother, look, do you and he have the same scarf? How come you two bought the same one..."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Yu's gaze slowly turned over.
System: "Hurry, hurry, host, there are only a few people left."
Xie Yu's gaze fell on Han Yunyun, and his brows couldn't help but jump.
It is undeniable that an emotion called unhappiness arose in his heart. This emotion came for no reason. With the urging of the system, he suddenly stood up.
After all, the agreement contract is not something that can be put on the table. On the podium, facing the slightly curious questioning of the junior sister, Shen Ci lowered his eyes slightly, avoiding her sight, and only said in a concealed manner: "Really? It's probably just a coincidence..."
Before he could finish the word "qiao", he suddenly felt a strong force on his wrist.
Xie Yu's slightly unhappy expression appeared in his sight. His hair was messy and his expression was gloomy. He was like a lion awakened from its sleep. He grabbed Shen Ci and forcibly dragged him away.
Before Shen Cishang could react, his legs had already moved. He staggered two steps and hurriedly caught up with Xie Yu, his expression blank and helpless.
"Wow." The system applauded. "Well done, host. All the key points of the original text are included. I can give full marks to this segment."
Look at this gloomy expression, look at this slightly rough action, look at this arrogant rich second generation behavior, and then look at Shen Ci's staggering steps and helpless expression...
System review: "Perfect!"
Han Yunyun was stunned.
She watched her senior brother being dragged away by a strange handsome guy. After she was stunned, she couldn't help but sigh and said contemptuously: "It's not decent to pull and tug at him."
We're still in class! And in front of my junior sister! Why don't you restrain yourself?
The world is becoming more corrupt and people’s hearts are no longer the same as they used to be!
Here, Shen Ci was dragged by Xie Yu and followed all the way outside the teaching building. After a little thought, he also reacted. At that time, there was actually some distance between him and Han Yunyun, but from Xie Yu's perspective, part of his vision was blocked by the textbook, and he couldn't see clearly what happened.
“Xie Yu…” Shen Ci used his free hand to pull Xie Yu’s sleeve, “I’m not…”
He looked at Young Master Xie's handsome profile, the mottled shadows of the trees cast on his nose, creating flickering spots of light. Shen Ci rarely felt a panic.
Whether according to the content of the agreement or from other aspects, it was his mistake.
Of course Xie Yu knew that he was not. Han Yunyun was a relatively important female supporting role in the novel. When Shen Ci was beaten by the original protagonist and was hospitalized, Han Yunyun paid a lot of his medical expenses. Moreover, it was clearly written in the article that she liked sunny and cheerful big boys, which was completely different from Shen Ci's style and had nothing to do with him.
“I know.” Xie Yu stopped and looked at Shen Ci unkindly, “But you took a long time, and I’m hungry.”
It’s been more than 40 minutes since the get out of class ended, which is enough time for another class.
It was obviously a tone of dissatisfaction.
If it was before, Shen Ci might have tensed up his body, waiting for all the blame from Master Xie, but now, he just paused slightly, took out a campus card from his windbreaker pocket, and looked a little helpless: "I, I'll treat you to a meal?"
Xie Yu put his hands in his pockets and said, “Okay.”
He didn't study much in high school and his university experience was average. There was only one cafeteria in the entire campus and the food was so-so. He was a little curious about the cafeteria of a top university like University A.
A University is the highest institution of learning in Jiangcheng, and its cafeteria enjoys a good reputation among all the universities in Jiangcheng. There are four cafeterias in the campus, and there is one next to the main teaching building. It is a three-story building covered with clear cement tiles and glass curtain walls. It is bright and spacious, and is a place for students to eat after class.
The food in this cafeteria tastes good, but it’s expensive. Fried rice costs more than 20 yuan, so Shen Ci doesn’t come here often.
He led Xie Yu inside and walked around all the windows, feeling a little awkward: "What do you want to eat?"
It was past lunchtime, and there were only a few people in the cafeteria. Many windows were closed. Xie Yu glanced around and said, "Grilled fish."
There is a grilled fish window in the middle of the cafeteria.
Shen Ci glanced over the menu, estimated the approximate price, and nodded: “Okay.”
He treated Xie Yu to the meal, and he stood in front of the window and chose a meal for two. Shen Ci calculated the balance on the card, breathed a sigh of relief, and handed the card to him: "Swipe it."
Xie Yu: "Is it enough for the two of us? Is there anything else you want to eat?"
Shen Ci naturally shook his head.
Xie Yu estimated the appetite of the two people and said, "Let's add some macaroni."
Shen Ci’s face turned pale: “Wait…”
The next second, the card was placed on the machine, and a harsh reminder sounded: "Sorry, the card balance is insufficient, please recharge in time."
Shen Ci pinched the corner of his clothes, feeling a little embarrassed.
He and Xie Yu were from two different worlds. Young Master Xie never ate in the cafeteria, and when he came here rarely, he didn't even have enough money to pay for a meal.
The cafeteria auntie pushed the card back and said, "You don't have enough money. Go and top it up before buying it again."
In her opinion, it was just that Shen Ci forgot to top up the money. Only Shen Ci himself knew that the balance in his meal card was never enough to buy the set meal at this window plus macaroni.
Shen Ci took the card and turned around: “Sorry, I’ll go recharge first…”
But he couldn't move a step.
Xie Yu held his shoulders and easily pulled the card out of his hand. He glanced at Shen Ci and said, “Why are you going? I’ll do it.”
The author has something to say:
System: "Applause, good acting, hahahahahahaha... wait, damn, you can act, right? You can act, right?!? You're not really doing this, are you?"
