As the three of them were talking, they realized that more than ten people had come in through the door.
Many men and women were surrounding a boy.
âJingjing, look, your suitor is here.â
âQuick, lower your head. If he sees me here, heâll definitely come over to talk to me. Donât let him see me.â
âIt seems like itâs too late. Heâs walking toward us,â Jiang Nan said gloatingly. Just take it as karma for teasing him just now.
âOh dear.â
âSince you donât want to see him, letâs go. Weâre almost done eating.â
âUh-uh.â
Kong Jing stood up and said, âLil Brother Yi, Iâve recently started a part-time tutoring job. After I earn money, Iâll treat you and Sister-in-Law to a meal. Be sure to bring my sister-in-law along, since weâll be a family in the future. We canât be too distant.â
âOkay, okay we can meet. Youâve already met anyway, so thereâs nothing to be afraid of.â
With that, Jiang Nan packed up the plates. âThe two of you can leave first. Iâll bring the dirty plates to the disposal.â
âUh-uh.â
The three of them had just tidied up their plates when they saw Zhu Shilong walking over from afar.
âJing, youâre eating here too.â
Although he was greeting them, Zhu Shilongâs gaze fixed onto Lin Yi with some hostility.
âYeah.â
Kong Jing nodded absent-mindedly, as if she didnât want to talk to Zhu Shilong anymore, then prepared to leave.
âJing, donât go yet.â
âSenior, whatâs the matter?â
âI heard you didnât get selected.â
âYes, but itâs no big deal. I donât care about it either way.â
âLittle Jing, youâre wrong. The student union is a very good place to grow oneself. If you can join, it will definitely be beneficial to you,â Zhu Shilong said.
âHow about this? Write a new application. When the time comes, Iâll interview you alone. I feel that with your qualifications and ability, it shouldnât be a problem for you to be elected to the student union. Moreover, as long as you do your job well, Iâll speak up for you. Itâs very possible for you to become a department head in the future.â
Seeing Zhu Shilongâs happy face, Lin Yi leaned into Jiang Nanâs ear and whispered,
âIs this person normally so arrogant?â
Jiang Nan nodded carefully. âHis father is the schoolâs logistics director. Heâs quite a capable person, so he has the final say in the student union. Everyone has to do as he says.â
âThatâs a little pretentious.â
Jiang Nan nodded with a smile. Jingjingâs brother was really a little eclectic.
âWhat are you talking about?â Zhu Shilong looked at Lin Yi.
âNothing.â Jiang Nan quickly explained, âSenior, you misheard.â
âDid I mishear?â Zhu Shilong looked at Lin Yi.
âI think I just heard him say that Iâm pretentious.â
Zhu Shilong had an unfriendly expression on his face. He had been chasing after Kong Jing for so many days, but he had never gotten the chance to eat with her. Where did this kid come from?
Could he be a new graduate student?
âNo, you misheard.â Lin Yi chuckled.
âI was saying you have a rod up your *ss, not that you are pretentious.â
Hissâ¦
Everyone else in the student union was shocked.
What was this guy saying?
He actually said that to President Zhu?
âSay that again if you dare.â
As a hot-blooded university student, coupled with the fact that he had someone backing him up, Zhu Shilongâs temper had always been bad.
In school, other than teachers, almost no student would dare to be rude to him.
Lin Yi patted Zhu Shilongâs shoulder and said earnestly,
âLittle Brother, donât be arrogant in front of your peers. Itâs not a good look. Also, my sister is studying here. Donât disturb her in the future.â
With that, Lin Yi put his arm around Kong Jingâs shoulder and walked out of the cafeteria.
âStop right there!â Zhu Shilong stopped Lin Yi from behind. âRepeat what you just said.â
If Lin Yi had scolded him back, Zhu Shilong wouldnât have been so bothered.
However, his nonchalant attitude completely humiliated him!
It was as if he was saying that they were not on the same level.
Furthermore, there were many members of the student union beside him. Zhu Shilong had nowhere to hide his face.
âWhy do you still want to talk to me?â
âWho are you calling little brother!â
âOf course Iâm talking about you,â Lin Yi said, âDo you want me to walk you to the toilet?â
The people around them covered their mouths and almost laughed out loud.
Although these two words carried the same meaning, you couldnât say the latter out in public.
Zhu Shilongâs identity was not something that ordinary people could afford to offend.
Jiang Nan looked at Lin Yi with admiration in her eyes.
There was a hint of vulgarity in his elegance. He was not pretentious at all. This kind of man lived a real life. He was much better than those sanctimonious hypocrites.
âYou motherf*cker!â
Zhu Shilong couldnât control his temper anymore. He ignored the others and rushed toward Lin Yi.
âPresident Duan, Director Zhu.â
At this moment, a voice came from the stairs of the cafeteria. Zhu Shilong immediately stopped in his tracks.
Immediately after, everyone saw a large group of people walk in from outside.
They were led by two older men.
One of them was Duan Yongchun. The other man wasnât tall and was a little fat. Lin Yi couldnât name him.
However, he should be the Director Zhu they were talking about.
In addition, Jiang Nan had just introduced Zhu Shilongâs identity and background to him. If he was not wrong, this short and fat man should be his father.
Other than that, what surprised Lin Yi was that Li Chuhan was walking between the two of them. It seemed like she had come here to eat.
âDirector Lin, we were looking for you.â Duan Yongchun grabbed Lin Yiâs hand as if he was meeting his long-lost father.
âLooking for me?â
âSince you and Director Li are here to give a speech, we had to arrange a meal for you two. How could we let you come to the canteen alone to eat?â Duan Yongchun said.
Everyone present was quite stunned.
He felt that he was hallucinating.
Principal Duan actually called this man director?
What company was this guy director of?
âIâm just here to applaud Director Li. Iâm not anyone important. Iâm just here to have a meal with my sister. You donât have to be so formal.â
Duan Yongchunâs gaze landed on Kong Jing.
âDirector Lin, is this your sister?â
âYes, Iâm in the medical department. I just enrolled this year.â
âWhy didnât you say so earlier?â Duan Yongchun chuckled.
âItâs obvious that this child is a good student with excellent character and studies. If you work hard, at the end of the semester, you might be able to get a special scholarship.â
Anyone with intelligence could understand Duan Yongchunâs words.
The special scholarship was prepared specifically for Kong Jing.
âThank you, Principal Duanâ¦â
Kong Jing answered mechanically, her mind in a daze.
What did Lil Brother Yi do to make Principal Duan treat him like this?
âWhy are you being so polite? You deserve it.â
Duan Yongchun said with a smile. Then, he straightened his expression and introduced Lin Yi to the other students present.
âLet me introduce you. The person standing beside you is the director of the cardiology department of Huashan Hospital, which is affiliated to our school. His name is Lin Yi. The lecture in the afternoon will be taught by Director Lin and Director Li.â
