Chapter 442: Dongfang Yang'S Offensive Round
The next day, morning.
As Su Tao headed off to her usual eight a.m. class, the dormitory building she and Chi Xiaocheng lived in was already surrounded by girls.
Even the corridors of several neighboring dormitories were packed with people, watching with excitement, amusement, or anticipation the red supercar parked on the wide campus road.
A man, affecting an aloof and cool demeanor, looking handsome to the point of being ridiculous but actually carrying an inexplicable air of silliness, leaned against the supercar. He seemed oblivious to being surrounded by a group of girls, constantly checking his watch.
Dongfang Yang.
The campus heartthrob known to everyone at Kyushu University: handsome, with a good personality, and rich. He was the object of countless girls' dreams, some even plotting romantic encounters in their sleep.
Now this young master had come to the girls' dormitory building. Was he waiting for a particular important girl, or was he waiting for a bold girl to offer herself?
Meanwhile, inside dormitory 513, the girl he was waiting for had already received his WeChat message half an hour ago.
After taking a glance, she had fallen back asleep.
Waiting was, after all, long and tedious.
It wasn't until almost 10 o'clock that Chi Xiaocheng's phone rang with a WeChat call. Still snuggled under the covers, reluctant to get up, she reluctantly answered, "Hello… who is it?"
Silence came from the other end of the line. "Chi Xiaocheng, didn't you reply to my message an hour ago? Don't tell me you're… still in bed?"
"Uh…" Dongfang Yang's questioning voice made Chi Xiaocheng slowly crawl out of her blanket.
Her expression turned serious, and her voice became clear-headed. "Good morning."
Dongfang Yang, downstairs at the girls' dormitory, rubbed his forehead. "I'll give you an hour to get ready. You must be downstairs in an hour!"
"Okay."
Chi Xiaocheng hung up the WeChat call and pouted. "Who needs an hour? Ten minutes is enough."
She didn't need to put on makeup. Brushing her teeth, washing her face, going to the bathroom, and then smoothing her hair was all it took for her everyday look.
Should she go back to sleep for a while?
The comfortable bed at home had been replaced by this wooden plank bed with a thin mattress. And her fragrant, soft body pillow with its generous bosom that could be used as a pillow was gone.
As a result, Chi Xiaocheng had tossed and turned for a long time last night, unable to fall asleep.
After the lights went out late at night, when her roommates were already asleep, her phone was still lit up.
With another yawn, Chi Xiaocheng got out of bed and saw that the other girls in the dormitory were already fighting battles in front of their computers.
Chen Shilan and Chen Shiling, twin sisters, whom Chi Xiaocheng had gotten to know during a night of casual chat.
The two were streamers and also hardcore gamers. Their families were wealthy, and they were here on an exchange program simply to have fun in Kyushu.
Their youthful and vibrant appearance couldn't help but make Chi Xiaocheng sigh. Being young was truly great.
Brushing her teeth, washing her face, and shaking off the melancholy about the world and life that inevitably arose every morning, Chi Xiaocheng simply changed into a sweatshirt and walked out the door.
Instantly, she was startled by the dense crowd of people in the hallway. "What… what's going on?"
"Xiaocheng, you're awake?" Luo Ying was also in the hallway and explained to her, "The guy downstairs seems to be a celebrity at our school. He's been waiting for over an hour. I wonder which girl is giving him the cold shoulder. Everyone's curious and wants to watch the drama."
Chi Xiaocheng was silent for a moment.
She suddenly wondered if it would be better to have Dongfang Yang leave first and then sneak out to find him.
She didn't want to become so famous at school.
But looking at Luo Ying's equally curious face, Chi Xiaocheng suddenly thought of something else.
Changing her previous idea, she said, "Actually, Luo Ying, do you believe that Dongfang Yang is waiting for me?"
Luo Ying blinked. "Who's Dongfang Yang?"
"The red-haired guy downstairs."
"Ah?"
Luo Ying's face showed the shock that Chi Xiaocheng had anticipated.
But unexpectedly, she didn't get any emotional points.
She thought that deliberately saying it like that would trigger some gold coins when Luo Ying was shocked.
Chi Xiaocheng didn't care too much. After thinking about it, she headed toward the elevator, not asking Dongfang Yang to leave.
If there were any well-known characters among the crowd of onlookers, would her appearance give her some emotional points?
Even the smallest bit of meat was still meat, and she could take this opportunity to find out where the mosquitos were.
When Chi Xiaocheng appeared in front of Dongfang Yang, the red-haired young master reluctantly got up. Chi Xiaocheng could clearly hear a commotion all around.
The system's notification sound rang out accordingly.
[Emotional points from Luo Ying +2…]
[Emotional points from Luo Shan +1…]
[Emotional points from Su Meimei +2…]
[From…]
The system's notification sounds continued to ring out, almost all one or two emotional points, but there were quite a few people, including some minor characters from Chi Xiaocheng's original list.
In total, she got 20 points.
A little too little; they weren't important people.
While she was pondering and sighing, Dongfang Yang had already frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you to dress up properly before coming down? It's only been a few minutes, and you're already here. Your hair is all messy."
"Messy?" Chi Xiaocheng reached out and grabbed her hair on both sides. Although it wasn't as well-groomed as Su Tao usually did, she thought it looked quite smooth when she looked in the mirror.
She said indifferently, "It feels okay, right? I just didn't want to make Dongfang Yang wait too long. I was too sleepy earlier and overslept. Sorry."
When Dongfang Yang heard that, the words he originally wanted to say were immediately stuck in his throat.
He met Chi Xiaocheng's beautiful eyes, turned his head, and snorted. He got into the driver's seat. "Don't let it happen again."
[Emotional points from Dongfang Yang +20…]
The system's notification sound startled Chi Xiaocheng.
Immediately, a sly smile appeared on her face as she got into the passenger seat.
Understood. Young Master Dongfang Yang was being arrogant again.
Giving this many emotional points, Dongfang Yang, you truly are something.
Fastening her seatbelt, the sports car started and drove away amidst countless shocked gazes, and Chi Xiaocheng brought the topic back to the main subject. "Speaking of which, Dongfang Yang, what did you come looking for me so early for?"
"There's a relatively urgent, serious, and important matter that I need your help with."
A rare look of worry appeared on Dongfang Yang's face. "Since Chu Lingfeng died, I've had a few easy days. Recently, I talked to the elders of the clan who are still in Kyushu, and they think I can't continue to be so undisciplined."
"I need further training in managing the family and the company in order to inherit the family fortune later."
"I really don't want to inherit that pile of useless and troublesome industries!"
Dongfang Yang tapped the steering wheel and sighed with extraordinary melancholy.
Chi Xiaocheng's mouth twitched slightly, and she was speechless for a moment. "So, what does that have to do with you looking for me?"
Dongfang Yang turned his head. "It has a very important connection. The clan has currently given me two options."
"The first is to return to the capital for training and study. This trip will take at least a year or two, but I don't want to go back."
"That brings us to the second option. If I don't go back, I have to… find a girlfriend."
