Chapter 236: Chapter 237: Zhang Dagou
“This...” Xiao Han was dumbfounded and said awkwardly, “Senior, I... I’ve just arrived at school and am not familiar with the surroundings yet. How about... you decide!”
“Alright!” Li Ruobing nodded and said, “How about tonight? Let’s go to Yujian Restaurant at the school entrance.”
“Sure!” Xiao Han immediately agreed upon hearing this.
It just so happened that he wanted to have a general understanding of the surroundings and then try to see if he could open a branch of Hanmen Restaurant nearby. If the environment was suitable and the place was popular, then it would indeed be worth a try.
“Then it’s settled!” Li Ruobing looked at Xiao Han with delight.
“Hmm!” Xiao Han nodded.
Li Ruobing left happily, and Xiao Han turned around to head back to the dormitory.
Liu Bin, this guy, was lying on the mat topless, leaning against a pillow, with his legs crossed and was hungrily devouring a novel. He seemed to be really into it. Seeing Xiao Han return, he curiously asked, “Eh, you’re back already?”
“Where else should I go?” Xiao Han asked curiously.
“Hehe...” Liu Bin grinned and said, “Weren’t you supposed to be going on a date with Li Ruobing?”
“Date?” Xiao Han was startled and said awkwardly, “I’m not that familiar with her, we just met today.”
Liu Bin stared at Xiao Han in disbelief and said, “Men only use that kind of reason and excuse with ugly women. Li Ruobing is the ‘flower’ of the Foreign Languages Department. You wouldn’t be that averse to her, would you?”
“What are you even talking about?” Xiao Han said, deadpan, then continued, “I just met Li Ruobing today. Even if I liked her, it wouldn’t mean we’d start dating right away, would it?”
“Hehe, you should strike while the iron is hot,” Liu Bin said, a sly smile curving up his mouth.
“Haha...” Xiao Han laughed but did not continue the conversation.
Seeing that Xiao Han was not talking, Liu Bin also chose not to continue and instead wrapped himself up with the novel once again.
Before long, a brawny man who stood at 1.9 meters tall entered, wearing a straw hat on his head with a dark complexion, carrying a camouflage woven bag. He held some cotton and toiletries in his hands, looking like he was covered with various items all over.
Whoosh...
Liu Bin quickly climbed up from the bed, alarmed by the sudden entrance of a brawny man with a face full of fierce muscles. For someone as skinny as him that would definitely be scary. There had been some terrifying attacks on campuses recently, where dormitories were annihilated in incidents. It would make anyone panic.
Xiao Han looked at the newcomer curiously and asked, “Excuse me, you are...?”
“I’m Zhang Dagou,” the sturdy man grinned at Xiao Han, revealing a row of white, even teeth. He wiped the sweat with the towel hanging around his neck and said, “I’m from Yantai, Shandong. Physical Education Department.”
“Hello.” Xiao Han approached and said, “My name is Xiao Han, this is our roommate Liu Bin, welcome to Dormitory 101.”
“Hehe, thanks!” Zhang Dagou chuckled.
Just as the words fell, a girl’s voice resounded from outside, “Zhang Dagou, you bastard, don’t think I wouldn’t dare to come in just because you’re hiding inside.”
Zhang Dagou hesitated for a moment, finally nodded: “Alright, then I’ll go and make things clear.”
Afterward, Zhang Dagou walked out.
The girl in the floral dress had been staring at the dorm the whole time, and when she saw Zhang Dagou coming out, her eyes lit up. She was dying to rush into the gate. Zhang Dagou hurried out of the gate. The girl in the floral dress said hastily, “Zhang Dagou, you finally decided to come out. Today, I must make things clear with you, whether you want me or not!”
Ha ha...
In the dormitory building, five stories high, more than a hundred people were watching.
“Together, together, together!”
Many people started shouting, and soon, a hundred people joined in the chant, creating a huge wave of noise. Although Zhang Dagou was big and burly, he was shy at heart. Faced with such a loud outcry, he shrank back, too intimidated to speak.
“Enough, all of you shut up!” The girl suddenly shouted at the people upstairs.
The previously boisterous scene quieted down in an instant.
Zhang Dagou’s face turned bright red as he said, “Xiao Mei, I...”
“What ‘I’? Are you a man or not!” Zhang Xiaomei clenched her fists tightly, and although she was a forthright girl, when it came to love, every girl was very shy and reserved. Knowing this, and if she didn’t take the initiative today, she might regret it for the rest of her life. She had shared a class with Zhang Dagou for three years and clearly understood what kind of person he was. It was precisely because of this that Zhang Xiaomei liked Zhang Dagou. Zhang Xiaomei said through gritted teeth, “If you are a man, then just quickly give me an answer. If you don’t like me, I’ll turn around and leave right now and go back to my own school.”
“Xiao Mei, I...” Zhang Dagou, face red, stammered for a long time, awkwardly saying, “Could we not discuss this in front of so many people, we...”
“No way!” Zhang Xiaomei said firmly, biting her teeth as if angry at his indecisiveness. She continued, “Can’t you be a bit more spirited? Just make it clear in front of everyone, so I also know what kind of person I am to you!”
“Alright, I’ll say it!” Zhang Dagou nodded and then said, “I... I like you. But, I... I want to focus on my university studies, I’m planning on taking the postgraduate entrance exam. Later on, I want to find a high-paying job. Otherwise, my mom’s illness... I want to lighten the load on my family.”
“I...” Zhang Xiaomei listened and said, “Being with me means you can’t take the grad school exam?”
“Dating wouldn’t distract you from studying?” Zhang Dagou said awkwardly.
“Of course not!” Zhang Xiaomei snorted lightly and said, “Don’t worry, I promise that I will only come to see you on weekends. I definitely won’t disturb your studies during the week, okay?”
“Really?” Zhang Dagou looked at her curiously.
“Of course, it’s true!” Zhang Xiaomei nodded and asked, “So with that said, do you still want me?”
“Want, want, I’m really into you,” Zhang Dagou grinned as he scratched his head, without giving any concrete response.
Ha ha...
There was a burst of laughter from the building. Zhang Dagou grew even more embarrassed, his head almost drooping to the ground.
