Chapter Index

    No one knew the rain would come so suddenly.

    The sky was still cloudless when holding the awards ceremony but as soon as the competition ended a fierce downpour fell.

    Jiang Qin was strolling with Feng Nanshu by the lake when seeing the torrential rain they could only jog back sheltering in Entrepreneurship Base 208.

    Because Dong Wenhao, Su Nai, Wei Lanlan, Pang Hai and the others had gone to the field to join the excitement earlier, 208 was empty and the windows weren’t closed with rainwater splashing in fortunately only wetting a few campus newspapers not harming the computers and files.

    “Wipe your hair, don’t catch a cold from the rain.”

    Jiang Qin rummaged out a towel from the drawer and threw it over directly covering Feng Nanshu’s face making her let out an “ah ya” sound.

    “Why didn’t you catch it?”

    Feng Nanshu replied expressionlessly: “Didn’t react in time please wipe it for me.”

    “As expected of a young lady, the habit of ordering people around is in your genes.” Jiang Qin took the towel and casually rubbed her beautiful long hair a few times.

    Feng Nanshu felt a bit dissatisfied with his perfunctory attitude and said with a clear and cold gaze: “Jiang Qin, aim properly, don’t wipe my mouth.”

    “…”

    Rainy days are very boring especially in the office where you can’t lie down the most comfortable place is only the sofa in 207 next door so Jiang Qin moved Lu Xuemei’s computer to 207 planning to find a movie to watch and accompany the little rich girl until the rain stopped.

    Don’t ask why using Lu Xuemei’s because besides her computer the office only had Su Nai’s left.

    He didn’t dare touch it.

    In case there was some weird playback software running in the background if the volume was turned on with hmms and ahs Feng Nanshu would definitely be curious what those sounds were.

    Not easy to explain really not easy to explain.

    “Come take a look is there anything you want to watch?” Jiang Qin opened Youku and pushed the computer over.

    Feng Nanshu leaned towards the screen her delicate little face lit up by the glow: “This one WALL-E.”

    “I suggest watching The Village of No Return.”

    “?”

    Obviously can’t watch WALL-E that’s false advertising the whole story is about falling in love very easy to get love-brained after watching.

    Falling in love is one thing the character setting is also very silly one is the rich white girl robot EVE silly and dumb the other is the worn-out bottom-class robot WALL-E working hard this feeling is simply like looking in a mirror.

    Nowadays film and television works literary works seem unable to survive without describing some romance garbage humph!

    In the end under Jiang Qin’s suggestion the two watched Pirates of the Caribbean.

    This film was fantastical enough just right for Feng Nanshu’s taste and the captain was a scoundrel and loser able to shatter a girl’s all fantasies about men.

    The windows of 207 weren’t tightly sealed cold wind could blow in through the cracks and it was quite chilly.

    Jiang Qin went back to 208 again brought a blanket to cover the two of them then leaned together eyes fixed on the screen.

    Because the lights weren’t turned on it was very dark the two huddled under the blanket with only their faces exposed their angles tilted a bit towards each other.

    Plop–

    After watching for two minutes Feng Nanshu kicked off her little leather shoes also tucking her feet into the blanket but her gaze was exceptionally focused not leaving the screen for a second.

    Jiang Qin had seen it once before so he wasn’t as focused as her just feeling the warmth under the blanket finding these days particularly peaceful.

    Then who is carrying the burden for me?

    Oh it must be Dong Wenhao.

    He hosted the awards ceremony for him and is probably drenched now.

    “Do you not like watching it?” Feng Nanshu noticed his distraction.

    “It’s not that I don’t like it it’s that I’ve seen it once before watching it again is a bit boring.”

    As soon as he finished speaking Jiang Qin felt a warm soft little foot in a lace thin sock sneakily extending to his hand while Feng Nanshu changed from sitting upright to side-sitting her gaze still not leaving the screen.

    This time she extended over right?

    I’m fucking definitely a gentleman right?

    Jiang Qin rubbed it self-righteously suddenly feeling the movie became a bit more interesting it’s just that the duration seemed a bit too short.

    “Boy I am Captain Jack Sparrow!”

    “…”

    “The true meaning of the Black Pearl is freedom!”

    “…”

    Just as the plot was continuously progressing originally empty hallway suddenly echoed with footsteps very clear obviously the distinctive sound of high heels stepping on the floor.

    Jiang Qin couldn’t help but look back and saw a long-haired woman walk past the door but didn’t go far because after two sounds of the high heels it stopped if nothing unexpected should be at the door of 208.

    Here to place ads for 208? At this time?

    “You watch by yourself first I have something to do outside.”

    “Okay.”

    Seeing Feng Nanshu nod in agreement Jiang Qin walked out and indeed saw that woman standing at the door of 208 looking inside.

    She wore a black trench coat with a white shirt and suit pants inside her black hair had slight waves clearly carefully styled probably not over thirty her whole body had the temperament of an elite woman and she also wore a pair of silver hoop earrings on her earlobes.

    In ’08 this kind of big hoop earrings seemed particularly common among fashionable urban women.

    “Hello do you have something?”

    As soon as Jiang Qin spoke the woman immediately turned around.

    “Are you the person in charge here? Let me introduce myself my name is Ye Ziqing.”

    The woman politely spoke and reported her basic information.

    “Here to advertise?” Jiang Qin sized her up feeling it didn’t seem like it.

    Sure enough Ye Ziqing shook her head very calmly: “No I was also a student at Linchuan University before and started a business in this classroom today I happened to pass by wanting to reminisce not expecting someone to be here already.”

    A form Jiang Qin had seen in 208 a long time ago flashed through his mind: “Oh Jiuhui group buying website right?”

    “How do you know about this website?” Ye Ziqing was slightly startled.

    “When I applied for this classroom I found a stack of financial statements the name on it was this.”

    “Are the things still there? Can you give me a copy? To be honest that was my first entrepreneurial attempt after failing I was very sad many memorable things were lost now it’s very hard to find them.”

    Jiang Qin lightly shook his head: “Sorry the things have been cleared out if you had come a month earlier maybe you could still get them.”

    Ye Ziqing couldn’t help sighing but wasn’t too disappointed: “Alright then I have some other things so I won’t disturb you.”

    “Don’t want to take another look? You can go in and see I don’t mind.”

    “Forget it what’s passed is passed and this classroom is no longer the same as before.” After speaking Ye Ziqing turned and left.

    “Senior sister Ye actually your group buying website was quite interesting being able to have this idea in ’03 was already very advanced it’s just that your direction was wrong otherwise it wouldn’t have failed.”

    “…”

    “Honestly if I did it I wouldn’t take user resources to find merchants but would take merchant resources to find users I don’t know if you can understand?”

    Ye Ziqing looked back at Jiang Qin then glanced at 207 clearly able to see the outline of a girl very pretty but because of insufficient ambient light also couldn’t see too clearly.

    She smiled slightly: “Junior brother just properly enjoy your youth entrepreneurship isn’t that simple you should know a little learning is a dangerous thing.”

    “Heh still don’t believe me.” Jiang Qin chuckled and turned back to 207.

    A small episode placed on anyone may be insignificant so neither of them took it to heart forgetting it as soon as they turned around.

    Jiang Qin went back to 207 again crawling under the blanket accompanying Feng Nanshu to continue watching.

    “This girl.How far are you willing to go to save her?”

    “How much can you sacrifice to save that girl?”

    “I’d die for her.”

    “I can die for her.”

    “?”

    Jiang Qin was startled thinking I don’t remember there being a romance here?

    But turning his head to look at Feng Daidai she didn’t seem to have much reaction instead more interested in those ship special effects.

    After a while the rain outside gradually stopped.

    The evening sky slowly brightened brilliant rosy clouds covered the entire sky above Linchuan University looking colorful and vibrant with an extra sense of clarity after the rain.

    Not long after Su Nai Dong Wenhao Pang Hai Lu Xuemei and over a dozen people who went out to play all returned to 208 grumbling saying the boss really didn’t know how to pick a day actually holding the awards today drenching them.

    Just in time Pirates of the Caribbean also finished at this moment Jiang Qin lifted the blanket on him preparing to send Feng Nanshu to the dorm.

    “Jiang Qin give me back my socks.” Feng Nanshu looked up at him.

    Jiang Qin didn’t know when he took off her socks so he turned his head to look around finally finding them under his butt: “Lift your foot I’ll put them on for you.”

    “Okay.”

    Feng Nanshu extended her snow-white little feet letting Jiang Qin put her socks on for her expressionless from beginning to end as if rewarding him.

    After tidying up Jiang Qin took Feng Nanshu out of the entrepreneurship base walking towards the female dorms encountering Gao Wenhui on the way.

    “Jiang Qin I heard the campus belle competition finished awarding? First place is Chu Siqi from the law department?” Gao Wenhui put her hands on her hips angrily.

    Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment: “It’s fine Xiao Gao you can participate next year or the year after anyway you have no chance but I can prepare a consolation prize for you.”

    “Scram I don’t want it Feng Nanshu should be the number one campus belle no one else is worthy!”

    “No she doesn’t want to be campus belle.” After speaking Jiang Qin glanced at Feng Nanshu.

    The little rich girl nodded very seriously: “I don’t want to be campus belle.”

    “Alright I’m leaving first 208 still has some things I’ll talk to you another day.” Jiang Qin waved his hand and turned to leave.

    Gao Wenhui looked unconvinced: “Feng Nanshu is your world only the two words Jiang Qin? You listen to whatever he says?”

    Feng Nanshu held up three fingers clear and cold: “My world has three words.”

    “What’s the other word?” Gao Wenhui was a bit dazed.

    “Jiang Qin, walkies.”

    “…”
