High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 141 - 119: Remember to Give Me a Studly Title
In fact, since Li Yang was reborn, he hasn’t smoked much.
The pack of cigarettes he tricked his roommate into buying back in the day only had two pieces smoked, which was then taken out of his pocket by his mother. He never bought cigarettes afterward, just carried around the lighter Bai Qing gave him.
But smokers are quite a unique group, they possess a shared habit and sense of recognition.
So whether he was with Li Yijun or today, he always tried to show that he loved smoking.
Li Yang took out the lighter, lit a cigarette, seemingly confirming what he had said before.
How could a non-smoker casually carry a fire source anyway?
Chen Weixing laughed and said, "I’m just like you, too scared to smoke in front of outsiders, afraid of being judged. Don’t be fooled thinking I’m busy rushing here and there every day; in reality, I’m just holding a textbook, secretly smoking in a corner. What a joke!"
"Hahaha, call me next time, I know a good spot."
"Deal!"
Li Yang continued, "What about Tan Kai? What’s up with him?"
Chen Weixing was baffled, "I don’t know either, I haven’t really interacted with him."
"And what about you? You come to the dorm but don’t say much, He Lewei and I are almost suffocating."
Chen Weixing replied helplessly, "To be honest, I got quite a scare coming to the Capital City. Damn, I thought acing the exams would make me invincible; was all smug back in the county. But arriving in the Capital City, I realized my little bit of money wasn’t even enough to enjoy a month. Damn, a night in a hotel costs over five thousand... our county’s best is just over two hundred."
"Haha, that’s normal. My dad came with me, and our family had a meal at Quanjude for over a thousand. A thousand could let us flaunt from South City to North City in our county."
Ordinary people coming to the Capital City would really feel like they’re in different worlds.
The invisible class difference makes people’s standings crystal clear.
Chen Weixing sighed, "So I feel like attending Jing University is pointless; wanting to settle in the Capital City in the future is sheer wishful thinking unless it’s through corruption."
He thought he’d become someone important, but it merely allowed him to get close to the truly influential.
His mention of corruption was not a joke; they already have the basis for it, it’s just a matter of whether they could realize it in the future.
Li Yang said, "It’s not that dramatic; in reality, most people are the same. Even He Lewei has his own worries."
"And you?"
Chen Weixing had always wanted to ask this, but he couldn’t quite figure out Li Yang’s character. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Coming from a small county, unless one was exceptionally wealthy, they shouldn’t be much better off.
But their lives were vastly different.
Li Yang saw the group of students on Jiang Banxia’s side and said to Chen Weixing, "Date a rich woman!"
After that, he extinguished the cigarette in his hand, called out to the crowd, "Master Jiang, over here."
Jiang Banxia immediately ran over with a smile, and Chen Weixing, feeling awkward, quickly put out his cigarette as well.
Li Yang introduced, "My roommate, Chen Weixing."
Jiang Banxia: "Nice to meet you."
After saying that, she looked at Li Yang, "That’s great, now you have someone to smoke with."
Li Yang wrapped an arm around Jiang Banxia’s shoulder and said, "Not smoking anymore, not smoking anymore, haha..."
He left with Jiang Banxia while waving goodbye to Chen Weixing.
"Old Chen, help keep an eye on He Lewei at the dorm. Don’t let him treat it like his own place; there’s no bathroom in the dorm."
"Alright."
Chen Weixing’s voice trailed off as Li Yang walked away with Jiang Banxia under the watch of her classmates.
Once there were no familiar faces around, Li Yang asked, "Master Jiang, did you drink?"
He noticed her cheeks were slightly flushed from the beginning.
"Yeah, just a small sip."
Li Yang asked, "What happened? Did someone give you a hard time?"
From what he knew about Jiang Banxia, she would never drink voluntarily.
The girls in his class were the same; unless it was requested, no one would offer them drinks.
On the boys’ side, they might half-heartedly urge a bit.
Jiang Banxia laughed, "Not exactly hard times; the girls in the dorm requested it, and I was too embarrassed not to join."
"Just the girls from your dorm?"
"Yeah..."
A little while later.
Li Yang said, "I’ve been mingling for over half a month, so I have some clout. Do you want me to help you change dorms?"
The clout he referred to was with Song Yu; relying on the counselor Lei Yiming was hopeless.
What power does a counselor have anyway?
Song Yu’s family has positions at Jing University.
"Master Li, you’re gaining reputation this quickly? Impressive..."
"Do you think I’m joking? Where doesn’t the top guy on Aviation Road have clout?"
"Hehehe... then let’s get a room."
Li Yang was about to speak, but his words got stuck in his throat.
He asked, "Why the sudden idea of getting a room?"
"Uh... wanted to take a photo..."
"Haha, alright, but when you upload the photo online, remember to give me a macho title."
"Uh? Sure."
Li Yang: "..."
Is this girl really trying to stir things up?
But seeing Jiang Banxia’s clear eyes, he knew she probably... didn’t understand?
Pure Master Jiang, not understanding is quite normal.
They didn’t have their IDs, but student cards could also be used to get a room.
And this counts as their first proper room booking together; before, there was no registration, or they registered separately.
After getting the room card, Li Yang said, "Master Jiang, do you know what this registration signifies?"
"What does it signify?"
"It means if anyone wants to check, our room booking record could be exposed, forever etched in our life files."
