High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 118 - 112: How Could You Treat Your Sister-in-Law Like That? You Can’t...
"WeChat group?"
...
No one has much of an opinion about starting a group.
University is all about expanding one’s social circle.
Whether it’s useful or not doesn’t matter, as long as there is a place to chat comfortably.
At least, on the surface, everyone here can chat together today.
Rivals in love or not, it’s still too early to tell.
Even Jiang Banxia is embracing university life actively, so there’s no reason for him to live in another world.
A little after six, new students went to buy bedding sets and various toiletries. After they were done, parents grabbed a meal at the school cafeteria before leaving Jing University.
They can still come tomorrow, but it’s unnecessary.
Li Yang plans to go sightseeing with his parents in the Capital City tomorrow; they head back the day after.
Jiang Banxia also plans to get to know his roommates better... Jiang Yaoting and Dou Ying definitely want to stay at Jing University for another day, so they aren’t going sightseeing with Li Likun and the others.
The WeChat group was successfully created at their farewell. The group name is: We All Have a Better Tomorrow.
Who knows which genius came up with the name.
That evening, only Li Yang and He Lewei were in the dorm room; the other two roommates hadn’t arrived yet.
Instead, people from next door came over to hang out, everyone added each other on WeChat, and talked about where they were from.
There are quite a few locals like He Lewei.
Li Yang feels that students at Jing University are really damn rich.
Of course, there are also many who are quite poor, and the divide is very apparent.
Even if one’s family status is decent outside, compared to people like He Lewei, they really feel like pure country bumpkins.
Early the next morning, Li Yang sneaked away to accompany his parents on a tour of the Capital City. They queued for half a day at Quanjude just to get a bite to eat.
Although He Lewei kept saying Da Dong’s is better, it’s more about checking it off the list...
While eating slices of roast duck, Li Likun commented, "It’s no different from the fried lard with sugar I ate as a kid..."
Just such a simple meal, with service charge, nearly reached a thousand.
A thousand bucks could get you a meal tour of Aviation Road...
Even swinging a sledgehammer and sending sparks flying all day, Li Likun couldn’t earn a thousand bucks.
Within Jing University’s campus, they didn’t feel much, but outside, they realized that earning a hundred thousand a year is barely enough to live in the Capital City.
Li Likun’s working spirit is about to awaken again.
Luckily, Li Yang quickly stopped him: "Dad, even locals don’t often come to places like this. What normal family can shell out so much? There are plenty of affordable vegetables at the market, and national grain standards are almost the same everywhere. Don’t overthink it, just go home and rest well. Next time you visit, I’ll have some face. Last night, one of my roommates almost asked if my family was struggling and if they needed to donate money..."
Li Yang used his own pride to stimulate Li Likun’s pride.
And so, the matter was settled.
But Li Likun definitely won’t stay at home obediently.
Li Yang won’t intervene too much, as long as he doesn’t do dangerous work.
Although many dangerous jobs need to be done, being a bit selfish in this regard is certainly not wrong.
The family has saved over a hundred thousand, which is why Li Likun can make such decisions.
If Li Yang’s job turns difficult, they might pack their bags and go out to work the next day.
...
When Li Yang returned to the dorm, the other two roommates had already arrived.
Seeing Li Yang return, He Lewei waved a big hand and said: "Li Yang is back, just in time. We’re all here now, I’ll treat everyone to drinks!"
Chen Weixing, the bespectacled guy in the dorm, said, "How about we split the bill? We just started school, and I’d feel bad taking advantage of everyone."
With a cheerful smile, Li Yang said, "Split my ass, Old He has money. I’ve seen his bank card, balance has seven digits. We could eat openly and not make a dent in his wealth."
On the way back, He Lewei messaged Li Yang, saying the other two roommates seemed to have average family backgrounds, and he intended to cover future dorm meals, asking Li Yang for support.
Li Yang could only admire He Lewei’s generosity.
He could think of it, but he’d absolutely never do such a thing himself.
Jing People are just lavish!
But Chen Weixing, as stubborn as a mule, said, "If we don’t split, I’m not going."
The other roommate, Tan Kai, also said, "Let’s split the bill, after all we’ll be living together for four years. Setting a precedent prevents resentment down the line."
Heless, He reluctantly said, "Alright, let’s go have a drink, I’ll find a spot!"
And just like that, Li Yang had just gotten back but went out again immediately.
This time, they didn’t go far, they found a barbecue stall nearby the school with overall low expenses.
Both Chen Weixing and Tan Kai didn’t drink, which meant the meal wasn’t very enjoyable for He Lewei.
Fortunately, Li Yang had a bit of drink with him, and when it was time to pay the bill, He Lewei swiftly paid first, saying, "We’ll set up a group later, you guys can just send me the money."
After the meal, it was past 11 PM. Li Yang and He Lewei walked behind, and He couldn’t hold back his complaint: "The dinner was too petty... Damn, we’re all in the same dorm, why bother calculating these things."
Li Yang said, "Counting is better than not; after all, we aren’t familiar with each other yet... But rest assured, I’m definitely not one to fuss over things. When can Master He show me around the Capital City?"
With a hearty laugh, He said, "That’s all small stuff, we’re not outsiders."
As they walked, Li Yang’s phone rang.
Seeing Bai Qing’s number, his heart skipped a bit.
He helplessly answered, just to hear Bai Qing ask, "Are you at school yet?"
"Yeah, I arrived yesterday, just finished dinner with my roommates."
"Then can you come to the south gate of Jing University?"
"Huh? I’m at the south gate."
This area is closer to the dormitory, and there are plenty of places to eat outside.
"Oh, I see you."
Li Yang glanced around and quickly spotted two figures by the south gate.
At this moment, He Lewei also noticed Bai Qing; his slightly intoxicated gaze instantly cleared up.
Today, Bai Qing dressed more conservatively than before, and hardly dolled herself up.
Yet her natural allure still managed to seep through unintentionally.
Li Yang broke away from He Lewei and walked over. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
He Lewei chuckled, gotta be his buddy, acting as his wingman.
A friend like this, he’d happily take him to the most expensive places!
...
"Aren’t you the chairman of the Green Water Group now? How come you have the time to come to the Capital City?"
It’s been almost a month since he last saw Bai Qing, and she’s changed quite a bit.
She speaks less.
And this time, she hasn’t uttered an extra word to Li Yang.
"I arrived the day before yesterday; there’s some business in the Capital City. I’m leaving tomorrow and thought to drop by to see you."
Bai Qing came earlier than Li Yang because she had more to prepare.
With a smile, Li Yang teased, "Do I look even more handsome to you now?"
"Yeah, you’ve always been handsome."
While speaking, Yang Shanshan handed over some items.
Bai Qing took them in hand and gave them to Li Yang, "This is the gift you promised to accept before—there’s a phone, tablet, and laptop, the three essentials for school."
Li Yang quickly took them and said, "I really don’t know what to say, but I’ll accept the gifts. Thank you for taking care of me."
Bai Qing laughed, unable to hold back asking, "How are you getting along with Jiang Banxia? Is it fun being with him?"
"Of course, it’s fun with both you and him."
...
With Lewei watching from the side, he couldn’t overhear but sensed Li Yang enjoying his chat with her.
In his view, WeChat was almost within reach.
This girl is just too stunning, with a figure unlike any other he’s seen.
Initially, after encountering Jiang Banxia and Xue Ning over the past two days, he thought his standards had elevated a dimension.
Yet he was still deeply attracted to this girl.
"Li Yang, push a bit harder, get that WeChat, and I’ll buy you a sports car to show off!"
Imagining asking for WeChat was unrealistic; he had social anxiety.
He could boast in front of guys, but go silent around girls.
"Finding a girlfriend like this would surely be bliss! Even that girl next to her is quite beautiful..."
He acknowledged now that his preconceived notions of Jing University had changed completely due to a few beauties.
Jing University truly produces beauties!
But when he saw the woman present Li Yang with gifts, he felt something was off.
Since when did asking for someone’s WeChat include receiving gifts? And a lot of gifts? And Li Yang accepted?
"What’s so great about stuff that’s more important than getting WeChat? Why isn’t he pulling out his phone?"
He Lewei got anxious; this wasn’t how the script was supposed to go.
He wasn’t prepared for what he was about to witness: Li Yang set down the gifts, and the woman opened her arms.
The next second they were hugging each other.
He Lewei was unsettled.
"That’s not how you ask for WeChat!"
"That’s your sister-in-law!"
"You bastard! Bastard! How can you do that to your sister-in-law—you can’t..."
"From today onwards, I don’t recognize you as a brother!"
