Ye Chen is naturally someone who takes things as they come, never flustered, no matter what happens, even if the sky falls. He slept until past six in the afternoon, and when he got up, he was still groggy and a bit dizzy.
"Overslept!" Ye Chen shook his head, went into the bathroom for a quick wash, then threw on some clothes, intending to go downstairs for a bite. At this hour, Yao Yue, that girl, should have left Jianghuai City by now. She probably thinks he has left too.
Jianghuai City is a coastal city, and even in the sweltering summer, the temperature generally doesn't get too high. As night just started to fall, some streets had already gathered clusters of street vendors, selling either barbecues or little trinkets...
Xinhai District is close to Jianghuai University. Near the entrance of Jianghuai University, it was bustling; in September, Jianghuai University had already started the new semester, with new students in military training and old students in classes. It was after class time now, so it was naturally very lively.
"Classmate, Adidas, smuggled authentic goods, want some?"
"Authentic Nike, absolutely genuine!"
"Selling second-hand computers, ninety percent new, clearance!"
Various miscellaneous vendors were shouting everywhere, rushing to pull Ye Chen and inquire, whether those barbecue vendors seeking customers all around, or those stalls able to get 'smuggled' Adidas any day, all constituted a beautiful scene at the entrance of Jianghuai University.
Ye Chen went straight to a bustling barbecue stand, found a vacant spot, and sat down. The stand was run by a mother and daughter. Though the place wasn't big, their barbecue tasted better than others, at least the ingredients were fresh, unlike others who might use expired materials for customers.
Coming to this barbecue stand to drink a jug of beer and eat some barbecue fish balls had become a habit for Ye Chen during his six-month stay in Jianghuai City. It's not because the stand owner's daughter was exceptionally beautiful, but because he had an inexplicable feeling for this place.
"Chen, you're here!" A fresh and pretty girl saw Ye Chen sit down and quickly greeted him.
"Yeah!" Ye Chen nodded, smiled at her, and said, "You're busy, no need to specially entertain me!"
"How can that be!" The girl hurriedly put down what she was doing, quickly sat down next to Ye Chen, and said with a giggle, "Chen is my valued guest; how can I neglect my valued guest? Tell me, what do you want to eat today? It's on me!"
"Oh?" Ye Chen was taken aback, laughing, "What's up? Little girl, do you have some good news?"
"Hee-hee, Chen, guess!" The girl quickly brought Ye Chen a jug of beer, then sat across from him, resting her chin in her palms.
"Hmm, this indeed calls for a good guess!" Ye Chen chuckled, looked at her, and asked, "Could it be that you found two bucks today? And then turned it into the police and got praised?"
Poof...
The girl giggled, her face glowing with charm. She rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, saying playfully, "Chen, you're so bad, daring to make fun of Momo!"
"Hahaha, could it be that Momo found her ideal boyfriend?" Ye Chen laughed heartily.
"Humph, not at all!" Liu Momo gave Ye Chen a fierce look and said, "I'm telling you, I have officially been admitted to Jianghuai University, hee-hee, and I've already registered!"
