Chapter 100: The Little Rich Girl’s Happiness
by xennovelThe little rich girl wanted to go out but you can’t take her to Wangyue Lake to touch feet every day right? That would be too improper.
But without touching feet Linchuan University didn’t have many good places to pass the time.
The off-campus KTVs were noisy and chaotic definitely not suitable for her social anxiety.
Although the university student activity center showed movies every day suitable for killing time most were romance films. With the little rich girl’s shockingly strong learning ability Jiang Qin was afraid taking her once would open her eyes and become uncontrollable. If she wanted to whimper then who could resist?
Not to mention Jiang Qin even Ultraman couldn’t withstand it!
So after weighing the pros and cons he chose to seek help.
Before being reborn Jiang Qin was also a single dog. After being reborn he vowed not to even be a relationship dog. The tricks to coax girls were limited now it seemed far from enough.
So he sought help from the girls in Financial Class 3 asking if there was anything fun to do.
“Jiang Tian are there any activities in the evening?”
Jiang Tian replied almost instantly: “Yes we’ve been playing cards and chatting on the field every day recently. Do you want to come?”
Jiang Qin thought for a moment: “Are there a lot of people?”
“It’s alright. It’s autumn now the weather is getting a bit cold not many people.”
“Is it fun?”
“Pretty good. Everyone plays cards chats gossips talks about dreams and the future. The atmosphere is very lively.”
“Okay I’ll come over in a bit.”
After reading the last message Jiang Tian put down her phone immediately got out of bed opened her drawer took out foundation brush eyeliner eyelash curler and primped in front of the mirror.
Song Qingqing lying next to her didn’t quite understand: “Why are you putting on makeup so late at night going out on a date with a guy?”
“No no.” Jiang Tian’s little brush didn’t stop so she fobbed her off.
Song Qingqing pouted: “What’s so embarrassing about finding a boyfriend bring him to meet us? We can vet him for you?”
“Not finding a boyfriend. Aren’t we going to the field to play cards tonight? I’m thinking if a handsome guy might take a liking to me.”
“Tsk I knew you weren’t being honest. I didn’t expect your heart to start fluttering so soon after school started but that’s good no one will fight me for Jiang Qin then.”
After hearing this Jiang Tian calmly said: “Girls should make themselves pretty not for anyone else mainly make yourself look good and your mood will improve.”
Jian Chun poked her head over from next door: “Putting on makeup just to play cards? The field is pitch black with only two small lights nose and eyes won’t even be visible right?”
“Oh my gosh Zhuang Chen has been playing cards with us these past few days right? Tiantian don’t tell me you’ve taken a liking to Zhuang Chen?” Song Qingqing suddenly thought of a clichéd possibility.
Jiang Tian immediately denied it: “How is that possible Zhuang Chen is Jian Chun’s I wouldn’t dare.”
“No he’s not mine. If you like him just take him I don’t mind.”
After speaking Jian Chun also began changing clothes. Unlike Jiang Tian she didn’t need to doll herself up so beautifully. After all Zhuang Chen didn’t deserve her dressing up specially for him. She just couldn’t accept going out in pajamas.
After getting ready the three girls left the dorm. Jiang Tian walked in front makeup exquisite indeed attracting many glances along the way.
While Song Qingqing went out bare-faced foundation more ordinary but still prettier than Pan Xiu.
Jian Chun could be considered a natural beauty rivaling Jiang Tian’s elaborate makeup but dressed more loosely giving off a girl-next-door vibe.
The few had just reached the entrance of the field when they saw Zhuang Chen who had been waiting there early. In one hand he held milk tea in the other snacks all for six people.
Seeing him like this you know without some family foundation you really can’t be a warm man.
When they got to the field the few laid out the mats they brought then played cards and chatted.
Jiang Tian was obviously a bit distracted making mistakes several times in her card playing causing Song Qingqing to complain.
“Tiantian do you have something on your mind?”
“No just not in good form.” Jiang Tian drew out two jokers and tossed them out.
Just then Jiang Qin strode over from a distance waved at the few when he arrived then sat down on the mat.
Song Qingqing had no idea he would come immediately shrinking back. Linchuan University’s nights were very dark. From Jiang Qin’s angle Song Qingqing’s bare face couldn’t be seen but bare-faced Song Qingqing was just in a fluster.
“Why did you come?” Jian Chun still remembered being mocked at the dinner gathering showing Jiang Qin no good face.
Jiang Qin stretched lazily: “Too bored in the evening can’t find a place to play came out for a stroll. Any water?”
“Drink milk tea.” Jiang Tian pointed at the bag in front of Zhuang Chen.
Jiang Qin reached for it but was stopped by Jian Chun: “Can you be a bit more gentlemanly? This is what Zhuang Chen bought for us!”
Seeing this Zhuang Chen couldn’t help but speak up: “Jiang Qin coming out to play with female classmates not buying snacks and drinks is already not gentlemanly now even snatching the girls’ milk tea aren’t you ashamed.”
Good well said that’s the spirit very on point!
Jiang Qin immediately withdrew his hand afraid of dog hair allergy then looked towards the milk tea stand in the distance his gaze searching along the faint light.
Just then a lively figure walked out from the night slender graceful long hair fluttering features appearing exquisite and uniquely beautiful in the haze then smoothing her skirt she sat down beside Jiang Qin.
Actually Jiang Tian and the others all knew Jiang Qin and Feng Nanshu’s relationship was not simple but according to intel from Class 4 the two of them didn’t seem to be together referring to each other as “best friends”.
But seeing them sit together there really was a sense of being a perfect match.
This wasn’t to say Jiang Qin was also devastatingly handsome matching Feng Nanshu’s looks but that Jiang Qin had an unusual temperament not seeming too ordinary even in front of Feng Nanshu.
“Drink.”
Feng Nanshu unwrapped the straw inserted it into the cup handed it to Jiang Qin her slender curled lashes dyed silver by the light.
Jiang Qin was also parched. He had been battling merchants with his tongue all afternoon wolfed down half a box of rice without a sip of water so he put the straw to his mouth and took a sip.
“Is it good?”
“Not bad flavor is a bit light but good for quenching thirst.” Jiang Qin answered truthfully.
Feng Nanshu’s delicate nose wrinkled slightly then she put the straw to her own mouth her gaze cool and clear looking at the few people around.
Jiang Tian put away her smile expression wistful.
Song Qingqing shrank back again cursing Jiang Tian in her heart because she realized Jiang Tian knew Jiang Qin was coming but deliberately didn’t tell her.
While Jian Chun looked at Feng Nanshu feeling a sense of inferiority her expression a bit dispirited.
Lastly Zhuang Chen. He glanced at Jian Chun then at the milk tea he bought feeling very unhappy thinking the disparity was too stark.
Jiang Qin also had his own thoughts. He was carefully discerning whether Feng Nanshu knew about indirect kisses. But seeing her silly expression she didn’t seem to be deliberately teasing him.
“Chat isn’t it said to be very fun?”
Jiang Qin came back to his senses thinking Jiang Tian exaggerated a bit. What playing cards chatting super fun clearly it was head down silence looking miserable.
“Not playing anymore a bit cold going back to the dorm first.”
Jian Chun threw down the poker cards her face gloomy preparing to leave the field. Seeing this Zhuang Chen and Song Qingqing immediately followed. With this Jiang Tian completely became a third wheel the kind with makeup on. She couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable all over so she also got up to say goodbye leaving the field.
What is all this?
Where exactly is the happiness you spoke of?
Jiang Qin was utterly baffled. Turning his head to look at Feng Nanshu, he saw her once again handing the milk tea cup over, eyes rippling with moisture appearing soft and warm.
In the time that followed there was no gossip no chatting no poker.
The two just sat like this drily for an hour. Until returning to the dorm Feng Nanshu’s eyes still sparkled with delight.
Jiang Qin suddenly had a feeling the little rich girl didn’t seem to be picky about the place seeming very happy no matter what.
But in the end… what made her happy?
Hard to understand, really hard to understand.
