High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 140 - 119: Remember to Give Me a Macho Title (Double-Length, Please Vote)
With the classmates all present, Li Yang started arranging for the restaurant to serve the dishes.
The overall atmosphere was so-so, because someone was acting aloof and cool.
However, once the alcohol started flowing, the aloof expressions slowly faded away.
After the dishes were served, Li Yang hardly made any more arrangements and just chatted with the classmates next to him.
After all, nobody wants someone talking like they’re a boss during a meal, arranging this and that.
The most he’d do was to invite everyone for a toast.
Today, Chen Weixing unusually broke his own rule and had two sips of white liquor.
It was basically around two ounces per guy, though most didn’t finish.
When He Lewei saw Chen Weixing start drinking, he insisted on staying with him, so Chen Weixing ended up having a couple more sips.
Even so, more than half of a glass of white liquor was left.
But the conversation topics significantly increased.
Before, he was only known as a guy from the southwest, rarely talking about other topics in the dorm.
Probably because after drinking, he wasn’t putting on a facade.
For instance, it was revealed that his family wasn’t very affluent, but after he became the top scorer in the city, everything changed.
The old house was rebuilt, and they even gave him an extra set of house in the county. Not only that, various rewards totaled four to five hundred thousand.
It wasn’t just Chen Weixing; most of the class had received some kind of reward, just differing amounts.
Even someone like He Lewei, who’s a local in the Capital City, didn’t feel much pressure getting into Jing University. But the school had money, the district had money, so he still got over four hundred thousand in rewards combined.
By comparison, the rewards for Li Yang and Jiang Banxia were considered small.
In neither rich nor poor places, it’s just that way—everything is average.
Overall, it was decent, but Tan Kai didn’t drink any alcohol at all, not a single drop.
Naturally, he successfully maintained his aloof act until the end of the gathering.
Li Yang even dragged the girls to get him to drink, and the guy just kept saying he was allergic to alcohol.
That’s a bulletproof excuse, after all, nobody is going to risk testing it.
In Li Yang’s view, not drinking is perfectly normal, but if people are actively coming over to chat, and you’re still putting up a front...
Wouldn’t it be fun to just chat and boast without drinking?
Damn!
From 7pm, they kept at it until after 10pm, with Li Yang next to the girls, not sure how many times gossiping occurred.
Basically gossip about his relationship with Jiang Banxia, and of course, questions about his college entrance score.
Even though they’ve been in college for a week, the college entrance exam is still the most glorious moment for everyone so far.
Li Yang’s score was among the top five in the same test area, so even at the Guanghua School of Management, it’s still quite impressive.
None of those in the same major had higher scores than him.
"Li Yang, where are you from?"
A girl named Sun Shujie asked.
"Huh? I haven’t told you guys such an important thing? Almost missed a big matter, I got funded by the city to promote it—almost breached the contract!"
"Hahaha, then hurry up and tell us, where are you from."
"I’m from Yiyang, in a small county town called Jiangcheng County. Don’t let the name fool you—it sounds prestigious, but it’s actually a poor county. However, our mountains and rivers have their unique flavor, and lots of good food. If anyone has time to come to Yiyang, just tell me, and I’ll arrange everything for you! No need to bring anything, just come over, and you’ll leave two pounds heavier."
"Then aren’t we hitting the jackpot?"
"Haha, it’s among classmates, so no worries. But in the future when working, don’t think like this. You can’t go out to work with two hundred bucks, then return home for New Year with two hundred still in your pocket, having eaten for free and not spent a dime for a year—that way your boss will hit the jackpot!"
The first class reunion of the Marketing major was a huge success!
Li Yang started arranging for classmates to go home; a couple of them couldn’t control their drinking and got drunk, and even He Lewei was woozy.
He personally took them bit by bit back to the dorm.
Just after reaching the dorm, a message from Jiang Banxia came in.
"Master Li, are you back yet?"
"Not yet, where are you?"
"Not far from next door to you guys. When you pass by, give me a shout."
"Okay."
After replying, Li Yang hurriedly dashed out of campus.
Jiang Banxia usually seeks him out, but would absolutely never use a questioning tone.
She would typically say: Are you back yet? Or directly state what she wants to do, like: Let’s go out and have fun.
Such obviously questioning intonations indicated Jiang Banxia wasn’t sure whether to ask, and if he said he’s back, then she probably doesn’t need anything.
So he made up something, saying he hadn’t returned yet.
Anyway, it wasn’t far, he’d just hurry over.
Tan Kai and Chen Weixing hadn’t returned, but Li Yang couldn’t worry about them as long as He Lewei didn’t wet the dorm.
He had also drank quite a bit today, so he took the opportunity to run a few steps to sober up.
Upon arriving at the earlier Shandong cuisine restaurant, before Jiang Banxia showed up, he spotted a familiar face in the corner.
Chen Weixing.
The guy had a bit to drink, but didn’t come back with the others.
At this moment, Chen Weixing was hiding in a corner smoking a cigarette.
Li Yang walked over and said, "Damn, Old Chen, you had this good stuff and didn’t bring it out earlier? I was about to suffocate during the meal."
Li Yang pointed at the cigarette in Chen Weixing’s hand.
Chen Weixing, a bit embarrassed, quickly took one out and handed it to Li Yang, "I thought you guys didn’t smoke."
Li Yang skillfully accepted the cigarette and said, "I’m an old smoker, always thought you guys didn’t smoke, didn’t dare to smoke in the dorm. Every day I sneak out, enjoy a smoke, chew some gum, and then come back."
