Free Web NovelChapter 1304: Chapter 862: To Go Home, You Need a Home First_2
Next day, Jiang Nian left early in the morning.
He ran to Beihua University to meet Yu Zhiyi. Come to think of it, they haven’t met too many times.
Most of the time, it’s just chatting on the phone.
However, they aren’t far apart. Plus, Yu Zhiyi is quite a chatterbox, so there’s never a shortage of topics.
"You finished your exams?" freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Of course!" Yu Zhiyi sat in the passenger seat, she was planning to go home today, but her flight was in the evening.
Jiang Nian thought he might as well take her around. Find a place to hang out and fulfill his empty promises.
"Where do you want to go?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhiyi was amused, "You asked me out and were too lazy to even pick a place?"
"Then let’s go to McDonald’s." Jiang Nian said, "I see kids love going there."
Yu Zhiyi: "...."
"Do I look like a kid to you?"
Jiang Nian gave her a glance, his eyes slightly lowered.
"Pretty big."
Yu Zhiyi glared at him, thinking he’s such a pervert. The sad thing is, she still can’t help but approach him.
Once she does, there’s nothing good to come of it.
She has a close friend at Beihua University, with whom she discusses practically everything. When talking about relationships, she hid Jiang Nian’s identity.
The friend advised her not to remain ignorant and cited a few examples, saying certain people were not bad.
After listening, Yu Zhiyi immediately sobered up.
What on earth was that?
Reflecting on it, she realized that compared to a stable life, she preferred focusing on what’s in front of her.
Moreover, Jiang Nian was just a bit of a jerk.
Besides that, he had all the good qualities.
.....
Jiang Nian finally took Yu Zhiyi out for a nice meal, costing over a thousand but worthy of pictures.
Yu Zhiyi was indeed very happy, but paused before taking photos.
"This meal must be quite expensive."
"Just eat." He didn’t answer directly, "Consider it my compensation for standing you up six times."
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
This guy is truly shameless, standing her up six times. Anyone else would’ve kicked him long ago.
However, there was indeed sincerity in him.
It’s hard to be harsh when you’re accepting favors.
Yu Zhiyi didn’t press too hard, "It’s okay, you’ve got important things to focus on, is business going well?"
"Started a brand." He replied.
"A brand?" Yu Zhiyi was surprised, completely dumbfounded, "That’s impressive, what’s it called?"
Jiang Nian was pleased with her reaction, enjoying the feeling of showing off.
"Why, are you looking to buy?"
"I’ll wait for my scholarship, then I’ll support you by buying one or two pieces." Yu Zhiyi fiddled with her phone and said.
This time it was Jiang Nian’s turn to be dumbfounded, "You’re getting a scholarship? No one at your school is competing with you?"
Yu Zhiyi was speechless, this guy’s words are so crude.
"I study hard usually."
Jiang Nian burst into laughter, hadn’t heard such a pure joke in a while, angering Yu Zhiyi to the brink of tears.
People do change.
The impact of the environment on a person can’t be underestimated. Upon entering university, Yu Zhiyi’s social circle actually shrank.
With Jiang Nian often out of contact, she turned to studying to pass time. Scoring well once or twice got her hooked.
Over time, she became a good student.
There are quite a few examples like this, Old Liu has a high school classmate who, after initially attending a junior college, ended up getting into graduate school.
After a joyful meal, Yu Zhiyi used her limited pocket money to buy Jiang Nian ice cream.
"This expensive?" he remarked.
"Compared to the meal, this is cheap." Yu Zhiyi rolled her eyes and prepared to pay.
Suddenly, she turned around and said.
"Since it’s pricey, how about I buy one serving?"
This was a test, Jiang Nian knew immediately what was going on, nodded and casually agreed.
"Whatever works."
A box of ice cream came with two spoons. Actually, the portion wasn’t small, enough for two people to share.
The two strolled around, sharing the ice cream.
"Are you going home?"
"Not returning lately, heading to Yuhang."
"Oh." Yu Zhiyi didn’t worry much about these things, "You promised me last time to visit West Lake."
"What’s there to see about a lake?" Jiang Nian was slightly troubled, he was on the verge of becoming a VIP scenic spot photographer for West Lake.
"I watched some videos, it looks beautiful." Yu Zhiyi said, "I can fly over myself."
"Don’t you have no money?"
"Got some hidden away."
The two walked and chatted, Jiang Nian wasn’t very secretive. Half pushing, he gave a relatively late time.
"So, should I buy the tickets now?" Yu Zhiyi asked with a bright smile, feeling a bit excited inwardly.
After all, that would count as a date.
"Alright."
Jiang Nian thought about it, and figured no point in dragging it out. Anyway, he hadn’t kept secrets from her all along.
Just go with the flow.
In the evening, Jiang Nian prepared to send Yu Zhiyi to the airport. This car was usually driven by Zhao Yiqiu, roaming around when there’s nothing else to do.
Xu Shuang didn’t use this car.
Jiang Nian and Zhao Yiqiu would occasionally take turns driving. These days, Xu Shuang had exams, Zhao Yiqiu had exams too.
The car ended up with him, driving people around when nothing was happening.
As for buying a car, he didn’t have that intention yet. Anyway, he’d have to leave eventually, and getting a car license plate is difficult.
"Let’s go, got everything?"
"Got it." Yu Zhiyi got in the car, before Jiang Nian could fasten his seatbelt, she leaned over and hugged him.
Then, she kissed him.
Jiang Nian didn’t expect Yu Zhiyi to be so bold. Stunned for a moment, but quickly took charge.
He thought, Yu Yourong is known for kissing impulsively.
Got a face full of saliva.
He held her neck, guiding her a bit, Yu Zhiyi couldn’t help but get caught up.
Her body relaxed, letting him do as he pleased.
Fortunately, Jiang Nian kept his wits about him, realizing they were in a sedan, not an RV, he quickly stopped after a couple of touches.
Must admit, the feel was quite nice.
.....
On the airport highway.
Jiang Nian glanced at the passenger seat, "Didn’t you date before, why do you kiss like a cow?"
Yu Zhiyi: "???"
She was immediately hurt, this guy’s words sting. What do you mean kissing like a cow, is that even human speech?
"Just because I dated doesn’t mean I have to know how to kiss." Yu Zhiyi was speechless, "I never kissed, all I’ve seen is on TV."
Jiang Nian looked at her, casually asked, "So back in senior year, what was up between you and Wu Jungu?"
Yu Zhiyi was silent for a while, then sighed.
"Wasn’t mature back then."
"He was really nice, but I was in a poor mindset, and when he approached, it only made it more irritating."
"I tricked him into being my boyfriend, and constantly toyed with him. Back then I thought, let’s see when he’ll give up on me."
"Thinking back now, I kinda feel bad for him."
Jiang Nian: ".....You scoundrel."
"I...that’s just how I am." Yu Zhiyi said, "Actually, I sort of believe in fate."
"Oh?"
"Back then I toyed with him, and later got toyed with by you. Sometimes I think, this is fate."
Jiang Nian didn’t believe in fate.
After dropping Yu Zhiyi at the airport, he drove an empty car back to school, dealing with a few matters along the way.
The next day.
Without stopping, Jiang Nian went to meet Zhizhi. Almost all acquaintances in Beijing had left.
The ones left are those staying here for New Year’s.
Just arrived at the duplex, went up to the third floor. Upon entering, only to see Zhang Ningzhi standing in the foyer, wearing a maid outfit.
"Ta-da!!"
"Do you like it?" Zhizhi asked energetically.
Jiang Nian paused for a moment, both surprised and amused, "Weren’t you planning to have lunch?"
"Yes, and to eat you too." Zhang Ningzhi moved forward to embrace Jiang Nian, "We’ll cook together for lunch."
One day of madness.
Jiang Nian didn’t cook much, ordered some food delivery. Took care of meals with little effort.
He exerted no effort, while Zhizhi was worn out.
Since Mrs. Zhang was coming tomorrow, Jiang Nian didn’t linger much, spent the evening and left early in the morning.
At this moment, it was the last day of exams at the Institute of Physics.
Jiang Nian returned to the dorm to rest, waiting for Qingqing’s exams to finish, having dinner with Li Lanying in the evening.
By the way, probing for any weaknesses.
"Did Da Chao leave?"
"Yeah, got a call." Brother Bao Song said, "Said a classmate came to find him, went home."
Jiang Nian: "...."
"True or false?"
"Don’t know." Brother Bao Song looked back at Jiang Nian, "When are you going home?"
