Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Gu Xiaoxian
Led by the three, Lin Xi bought daily necessities, and finally Peng Bo paid, admitting he had been blind before.
Afterwards, they toured Jiangnan University. Though it’s a top school in the south, the campus size is only about average, estimated at less than half of Peking University’s.
However, the buildings and facilities combine Western and Chinese styles, with a layout that’s both reasonable and pleasing to the eye.
Especially in faculty, it gathers numerous domestic and international renowned professors, and the whole academic atmosphere leads the nation.
They toured for about a morning, had a simple meal at the cafeteria, and rested in the dorm in the afternoon.
Most of the time, Peng Bo and the others surrounded Lin Xi, wanting him to teach them a move or two to show off and impress girls later.
After a half day of interaction, Lin Xi’s initial thoughts were confirmed; these three were not bad, rather passionate and a bit childish.
"Boss, there are some girls we can invite out for a meet-up, how about it?" Peng Bo, holding his phone, said to Lin Xi who was lying on the bed.
"Girls?" Lin Xi asked.
"Looks aren’t bad, though not sure about their character? Anyway, we’re just staying in the dorm, not much class activities these days, why not agree to a dorm meet-up?"
"Right, right, the second bro’s got it right, I heard the other three girls in their dorm aren’t bad either." Xiong Haitao chimed in, nodding enthusiastically.
Cui Hua pushed his glasses, speaking seriously, "Logically, given our reputation and the boss’s status now, we wouldn’t generally care about ordinary girls, but the key is, this girl is the one we helped out this morning. Also, she’s so proactive, we shouldn’t refuse."
"So, we’re reluctantly agreeing?"
"Hypocrites!" Peng Bo slapped the fourth bro’s head.
"Then let’s go!" Lin Xi agreed.
He’s not necessarily looking to impress girls, since there’s not much else to do. Of course, if there are pretty girls, it’s a duty he wouldn’t shirk.
Led by Peng Bo, the four of them left the dormitory.
The agreed meeting place with the girls was at the registration area, also where the girl mentioned was helped earlier. Although the help was a bit rough, this place was memorable and easy to find.
The four headed towards the registration area, as the sky began to darken, with no freshmen registering, a tall senior and a short senior were playing on their phones at the spot.
Sensing people approaching, they looked up, their expressions changing wildly, breaking into cold sweats.
Earlier, they had been rude to Lin Xi, even assigning him to room 606, clearly wanting to give Lin Xi a hard time.
They knew Peng Bo and the others, without hesitation, had beaten up a senior, even a fourth-year.
If Lin Xi went to the dorm, at the very least he’d have a rough time.
Moreover, that fourth-year was Xu Fei, a bully among seniors; those who’ve crossed him suffered harsh revenge afterwards, or so they heard.
So, they thought, even if untouched by Peng Bo and the others, he’d still suffer collateral damage.
Now, the four were intact, chatting and laughing.
Lin Xi led in front, the three seeming to surround him.
"What the hell is going on?"
The two were on the verge of tears, exchanging a look and thinking, "Should we admit fault, apologize?"
Meanwhile, they were ready for a beating.
Just hoping not to get beaten too badly, secretly praying, about to apologize to Lin Xi, but unexpectedly Lin Xi and the others walked to the side of the registration area, ignoring the two.
The two were bewildered, "What’s the situation?"
.bg-ssp-10081{margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;display:flex;justify-content:center;}Was it on purpose, wanting them to come over to apologize?
Or did Lin Xi simply not care?
The two were quite conflicted!
The fourth bro, Cui Hua, noticed their expressions, "Boss, did those two offend you this morning?"
Lin Xi glanced at them, thought for a moment, "They must’ve deliberately arranged me in your dorm, wanting me to suffer somehow!"
Peng Bo, clearly a hothead, was instantly furious, "Damn it, what do they think we are, dare to bully the boss!"
Saying this, he ran over without hesitation, followed by the third and fourth bros, giving the two a good beating, particularly by the heavy-handed Xiong Haitao.
If not for Lin Xi saying to let it go, these two would likely end up severely injured.
Soon, a tall and slender girl approached, wearing light clothes, looking decent, with a mid-high-end bracelet on her hand. But compared to Bai Bing or Zhou Yan, she fell short.
Overall, she was above average, her family probably well-off.
Beside her were three more girls; one matching her height but extremely fat, looking like a mobile fortress.
By her attire, the fat girl seemed unconcerned with appearance, appearing to come from a common family.
The sole highlight was her eyes, very lively.
A smart person!
The fat girl was arm-in-arm with a girl around 1.6 meters tall, with a quiet appearance, whose figure and looks were average, less than the tall girl’s, wearing cheap, off-brand clothes.
The last girl, roughly 1.65 meters, hiding behind the fat and quiet girl, revealing only half her face, with bangs covering her forehead and her head down, making her face and figure hard to discern.
"It’s them, boss, let’s go over." Peng Bo pointed at the approaching four girls, telling Lin Xi.
The two groups met, exchanging introductions.
The tall girl was Jiang Yi, the fat one was Di Qiu, the quiet girl was Ning Jing, and the timid one was Gu Xiaoxian.
Gu Xiaoxian introduced herself with a tiny voice, hiding behind Di Qiu and Ning Jing, and Lin Xi’s group still hadn’t seen her face clearly.
Yet Lin Xi vaguely felt he’d seen this girl somewhere.
After introductions, everyone started pairing up.
The second bro, Peng Bo, connected with Jiang Yi, while Di Qiu actively engaged Xiong Haitao, and the fourth bro engaged in a tentative chat with Ning Jing.
As for Lin Xi, his outfit appeared quite shabby, giving off a migrant worker vibe.
Jiang Yi’s initial look showed slight disdain, clearly perceived Lin Xi as outside her interest.
Although Di Qiu and Ning Jing didn’t show much, they merely greeted Lin Xi symbolically without saying much after.
Finally, with Peng Bo and the others’ urging gazes, Lin Xi had to greet Gu Xiaoxian.
Upon greeting, Gu Xiaoxian had to face Lin Xi.
"It’s you!" Lin Xi exclaimed in delight.
"Ah, you..., it’s... it’s me. I’m being forced." Gu Xiaoxian’s face turned entirely red, not wanting to be here, pressured by her roommates.
Catching this exchange, Peng Bo and others curiously looked over.
On seeing, Peng Bo and the others regretted immensely.
"How is this just ordinary beauty, this is clearly of campus queen level!"
