"Yes, he will arrive probably the day after tomorrow afternoon. I'll tell him in advance when you plan to make an appointment with him." Su Nan nodded, crossed his arms and looked at Chang Yelin who looked excited.
Has this young master forgotten the fight he had with Zhou Rang before?
Otherwise, how could he become such a "pervert" just because Zhou Rang saved him once in Nanzhou?
"Of course it depends on your benefactor's schedule. I'm free anytime." Chang Yelin rubbed his hands, looking impatient.
Chen Jie, who was standing aside, saw Chang Yelin being so "servile". He was completely rude and condescending to her like before. A black line slid across her forehead, and she thought to herself that this guy really treated people differently.
My opinion of him has really dropped to the lowest point.
"Then I'll call you then. Is the number still the one you gave me before?" Seeing this, Su Nan couldn't help but covered her lips and chuckled.
Chang Yelin noticed the looks the others were giving him, so he calmed down a bit, cleared his throat, and said calmly, "Yes, that's the number."
"Okay, that's it, Chen Jie, let's go back." Su Nan took two steps forward, took Chen Jie's arm, and walked out.
Chang Yelin stood there and watched them go away. He glanced at his clothes stained with water, frowned in disgust, and was no longer in the mood to go back to the private room to eat. He just wanted to go home, take a shower, and wash off all the dirt with soap.
As soon as I took a step, I felt something hard under my feet. When I moved my foot away, I saw the camellia hairpin.
It's that ugly woman's thing.
For some unknown reason, Chang Yelin bent down, picked it up, and rinsed it with water.
"Uncle Lin, let's go back and continue eating." Seeing Chang Ye Lin was about to go out, the pretty girl hurriedly approached him with a smile, stretched out her hand to hold his hand, but was avoided.
"Go eat by yourself, and the money will be deducted from my account." Chang Yelin put his hands in his pockets a little irritably, without even looking at her, and strode out. After returning to the private room to get his personal belongings, he left Nanzhou Hotel directly.

On this side, Su Nan and Chen Jie were walking back to the private room, looking at each other in silence.
"Well, did nothing really happen? If you have anything to say, tell me and I'll help you..." Su Nan looked at Chen Jie who seemed a little distracted, and couldn't help but speak with concern.
Chen Jie came back to her senses, quickly shook her head, and said with a smile, "What could have happened? I'm fine. I was just thinking that since the formal classes will start in three days, I should go to the bookstore and buy some English books to familiarize myself with them in advance."
Hearing this, and seeing that she looked calm, Su Nan slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Then let's go to the bookstore and look at some books. I haven't read any English books since the college entrance examination, and I'm still a little nervous thinking about it now."
She had been busy with work for more than a day and hadn't studied English at all. Now, after Chen Jie's reminder, Su Nan felt that she should buy some books and regain some sense of English in the two days before school started.
"Tuo."
As soon as he finished speaking, he arrived at the door of the private room.
Seeing them come in, Yang Shuzhen couldn't help but ask, "Why did you take so long?"
"I just ran into an acquaintance and chatted with him for a while." Su Nan explained briefly, and when he saw that everyone had finished eating, he picked up his bag and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Yang Shuzhen suddenly pointed at Chen Jie's hair and asked in confusion, "Didn't you have a hairpin pinned here? Why is it gone?"
Chen Jie subconsciously raised her hand to touch her head, but didn't feel anything. She said in a panic, "I'll go back and look for it."
"It's lost, it's just a hairpin." Su Nan waved his hand, signaling Chen Jie not to take it to heart.
"How can that be possible? This is what you gave me. I'll go back and look for it." After Chen Jie said that, she turned around and trotted back to the direction she came from.
"Oh." Su Nan took two steps forward, leaning against the door as he watched Chen Jie bend over in the corridor, carefully searching for her hairpin. He quickly turned around and called out to Yang Shuzhen, "Come on, let's help look for it."
"Oh, hey." Yang Shuzhen picked up her bag and followed Su Nan towards Chen Jie.
The three of them searched carefully on the road together, not even sparing the surrounding green plants, but after searching back and forth twice, they couldn't even find the shadow of the hairpin.
"It's all my fault." Chen Jie held her forehead with her hand. The emotions that had been suppressed for a long time finally burst out at this moment. Her eyes instantly turned red and tears flowed down.
Su Nan felt bad seeing Chen Jie blaming herself so much. It was her first time meeting a girl with such a personality, so she was inevitably a little flustered. She went forward, hugged Chen Jie and patted her shoulder.
She kept trying to comfort him, "It's okay. It's just a hairpin, not worth much. I gave it to you. It's yours, so even if you lose it, it's not a big deal. I won't blame you."
"Yes, Nannan said it's a small matter, there's no need to be like this." Yang Shuzhen patted Chen Jie's back and also comforted her.
"But I just couldn't help it..." Chen Jie wiped the tears from her face. Even so, tears were still flowing from her eyes.
"Don't take it to heart." Su Nan took out a tissue from her bag and wiped Chen Jie's tears. She then took her back to the private room and rested for a while before she stopped crying.
In order to divert Chen Jie's attention and prevent her from being immersed in sadness, Su Nan and Yang Shuzhen kept changing the subject and discussing what books they would buy at the bookstore later.
After Chen Jie calmed down, the three of them walked towards the largest bookstore nearby.
This bookstore sells a wide variety of books, all kinds of which are dazzling. However, many foreign books are now banned and cannot be bought even if you want to.
Su Nan and the others can only stand out among the short people.
"I just want to choose some books with light-hearted content. I don't want to read those that are too profound and will make me fall asleep easily." Su Nan lowered his voice and winked at Chen Jie and Yang Shuzhen.
Thinking that the books Su Nan occasionally read in the dormitory were all romance novels, Chen Jie and Yang Shuzhen looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Then we'll help you find it."
Su Nan had passed the college entrance examination in English. Everyone knew this when they were chatting and exchanging college entrance examination scores in the dormitory, so the two of them were not worried that Su Nan's grades would drop because of reading some foreign novels.
They should be more worried that their English grades are not as good as their own.
"There seems to be something here. Take a look. Is it true? I don't know this word. What does 'journey' mean?" Yang Shuzhen picked out a book with a blue cover from the bookshelf and handed it to Su Nan.
Su Nan took it and after identifying the character "㱕" on it, he pretended to be profound and said, "This is..."
Chen Jie and Yang Shuzhen looked at Su Nan expectantly, hoping that she could answer the question for them.
But after a while, Su Nan rolled his eyes and laughed, "I don't know him either, hahaha."
"But it should be a place name. I'll buy it." Seeing Chen Jie and Yang Shuzhen hugging their chests, Su Nan quickly added.
The three of them looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes.
