Mountain village beauty: Brother, don't stop!

Chapter 288: Chapter 288 Failing to Appreciate Kindness

"Huh? Are you a new student at Xiangtan University too?"

Qi Shihan came out and saw Shen Shiyi and asked with a look of surprise.

"Junior, you guessed wrong, I’m actually your senior. My name is Shen Shiyi. And you, how should I address you?"

Shen Shiyi extended her hand in a very friendly manner.

"Qi Shihan!"

Qi Shihan also shook hands with Shen Shiyi politely.

"You must still be unfamiliar with the school, right? Come on, today I’ll be your guide and show you around the campus!"

Shen Shiyi proposed enthusiastically to Qi Shihan.

"Alright then, thank you in advance, Senior Shiyi!"

Qi Shihan was quite impressed with Shen Shiyi and cheerfully said to her.

"Let me tell you, our school has a lot of hooligans. With a beauty like Senior Shiyi, there must be many who trouble you behind your back. But don’t worry anymore, I, Qi Shihan, will protect you!"

Wang Hao, walking behind the two of them, turned dark at hearing this and thought, you, a newcomer, had better first make sure you don’t add to someone else’s troubles.

Qi Shihan, targeted by so many eyes on the first day of school, seemed likely to have no peace in the days to come.

Shen Shiyi, however, was stunned by the comment then smiled knowingly at Qi Shihan without saying anything, and continued leading Qi Shihan and Wang Hao towards the teaching buildings.

However, it was quite strange to say.

As Qi Shihan had mentioned, there indeed were quite a few hoodlums at the school, and Shen Shiyi was so pretty. So why did those hungry-looking boys only glance from afar without ever approaching her?

And on this walk, besides Shen Shiyi not being approached, even Qi Shihan was only glanced at from a distance by the boys, none daring to come close.

After Shen Shiyi took Qi Shihan and Wang Hao for a full tour of the campus, it had become noon, and the three decided to check out the school cafeteria. But as soon as they entered, Qi Shihan’s face darkened.

"Is this the standard meal at the school usually?"

Qi Shihan pouted, looking very displeased.

"If these don’t suit your taste, you can eat at the restaurant or eateries near the school. They have a wide variety of dishes, and it’s all cooked to order."

Seeing that Qi Shihan was not satisfied with the school cafeteria’s food, Shen Shiyi then recommended the diner nearby.

"Then shall we go take a look together?"

Qi Shihan eagerly looked at Wang Hao.

It seemed that Qi Shihan’s princess syndrome had flared up again, but Wang Hao had no choice, for his little princess was his to spoil.

Back when Wang Hao was studying, he certainly didn’t have the luxury to be picky; being fed and clothed was considered good enough. Now Qi Shihan was fussing over her choices.

However, at that time, Wang Hao’s family was indeed poor, his father was disabled, and it was hard for his mother to support the family alone.

Now, even if Qi Shihan wanted to eat a Manchu Han Imperial Feast every day, Wang Hao could afford it.

Once they left the school, sure enough, there were lots of snack shops, but only a few proper-looking restaurants. However, judging by their interior decor, they seemed to be designed for couples.

"Alright, I won’t accompany you two anymore; I have things to do and need to leave first. You two enjoy your time!"

Just out of the school gate, Shen Shiyi suddenly said she had to go.

"Senior Shiyi, I wanted to thank you for the campus tour by treating you to a meal. We’re already at the restaurant; give me some face and let’s have a meal before you go!"

Qi Shihan hastily urged her to stay.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I really can’t now. I live in Zao City. Otherwise, I would have invited you over for a meal. I’m truly sorry. Let’s have a meal together another time!"

Shen Shiyi apologized sincerely.

"You really can’t spare a moment to stay and have a bite before you leave?"

Qi Shihan felt very disappointed.

"I’m really sorry, but I truly have urgent matters!"

Shen Shiyi was very insistent.

"Alright, if I don’t have class, can I come to visit you at school?"

Qi Shihan seemed to enjoy chatting with this senior.

"Of course, you can! You’re not only my junior but also my lifesaver!"

Shen Shiyi also seemed to really like Qi Shihan.

After parting ways with Shen Shiyi, Wang Hao and Qi Shihan randomly picked a restaurant to get something to eat.

"Yo, it’s really both tacky and poor. To bring such a beautiful girl to a place like this to eat, it really embarrasses her!"

Before even entering, they heard Yi Zetian’s voice.

Listening to these sarcastic words, Wang Hao couldn’t help frowning.

This guy sure could switch his face fast. Just a second ago, he was apologizing like a grandson after being frightened by Wang Hao. Now just a short while had passed, and he had already forgotten the pain once his wounds healed and was showing off again.

Turning his head, Wang Hao saw that indeed, there was a line of people standing behind Yi Zetian.

These people didn’t look like students. Judging by their attire, there were more than a dozen of them, neatly arranged and very muscular, nothing like those frail students.

No wonder Yi Zetian suddenly sounded so confident.

"You guys are from Wild Bear’s crowd?"

Wang Hao asked, furrowing his brow.

"Wild Bear? Who’s that? We don’t know any irrelevant people!"

The head of the hoodlums said with a provoking look, staring straight at Wang Hao.

"You better remember, kid, in Zao City from now on there’s no more Wild Bear... our big brother is Xing Hua!"

Xing Hua?

Wang Hao had never heard this name before.

But he quickly remembered what Wen Zicong had said,

It looked like this Xing Hua really liked to play the mystery card.

"Xing Hua? Never heard of him. You lackeys aren’t qualified to talk to me. Call your boss to talk to me!"

Wang Hao scoffed.

"You think you’re worthy?"

Xing Hua’s men couldn’t help but burst into a fit of laughter, as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world. They doubled over, and after finally calming down, they pointed at Wang Hao and said,

"Who do you think you are? You don’t have the right to call Brother Xing by name. You should call him Boss Xing!"

Wang Hao shook his head helplessly and grabbed Qi Shihan’s hand, preparing to leave.

"Stop right there, did Young Master Yi agree to let you go?"

Thinking Wang Hao was scared, Xing Hua’s subordinate yelled loudly to stop him.

"What, feeling scared now?"

Yi Zetian pointed proudly at a luxury car parked roadside and said to Qi Shihan, freēwēbηovel.c૦m

"I’m telling you, junior, if you follow this broke guy, you’ll only suffer. You’d be better off with me; I’ll take you to the Peninsula International Hotel in a luxury car for a fine meal!"

"I’m not interested!"

Qi Shihan huffed coldly and pulled Wang Hao, ready to leave.

"So ungrateful!"

Suddenly, Yi Zetian’s face darkened, and he looked menacing.
