Chapter 360: Chapter 357: Spend More Time With Her
In the afternoon, Su Qing accompanied Tang Nan back to her university for a visit, which wasnât far from there, and they both had a car.
Different schools, same scenes, it was still freshman military training with older students watching the fun, the two bought half a watermelon again to eat while wandering around.
At five-thirty in the afternoon, the two walked on a small path at Tang Nanâs former university, with rows of silver trees lining the road, lush green providing shade. Relaxed students walked leisurely by, as did housewives bringing children to relax, each person with a carefree expression on their face.
It seemed as if time slowed down here, the gentle breeze rustling the leaves, the sunshine, the students, youth, smiling faces, hand-holding couples, arm-over-shoulder boys, and even little kids just learning to walk, all seeming to be frozen in time here.
"Ah~~ school still feels nice. Although Iâm in the capital now, I havenât been back for many years. In the first couple of years after graduation, Iâd come back occasionally when I was free, only to find no familiar faces, feeling like I no longer belonged, so I stopped returning."
Tang Nan, hands behind her head, lay down and closed her eyes, enjoying the sunlight filtering through the leaves softly caressing her face, murmuring softly.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing thought for a moment and spoke, "Maybe itâs because thereâs no familiar person accompanying you."
"Perhaps. By the way, donât you miss your college days?"
Su Qing shook her head, "My college life wasnât like yours â a school beauty, a campus celebrity. My college years were quite low-key, never won any scholarships, never participated in school events or performances, not even the sports meets. Whatâs there to miss?
Besides, Iâve only graduated a bit over a year, not so much time for sentimentality or self-pity?
Moreover, I hardly had any friends in college, even hardly keep in touch with those from my dorm now. Itâs my high school days I miss more, but you canât just walk into a high school either!"
He wasnât lying at all; college friends came from all over, and after graduating, everyone went their own ways, busy with work, leaving little time for maintaining relationships. It might also be that he didnât manage his connections well, but he hardly made any lasting friends.
Wang Xing doesnât count, they knew each other since junior high, even high school friends donât meet more than twice a year now.
"True, youâre still a kid, graduated just a year or so.
But saying youâre low-key at college â I canât agree with that. After all, you managed to woo a teacher! College students are many, but few can win over a teacher, thatâs rare indeed!"
đđŁđđđđđđđŒđđČđč.đđ đ
Upon hearing this, Su Qing was rendered speechless. Why mention college teachers out of the blue?
Though Liu Shuzhu, since last meeting and adding him on WeChat, hadnât made further moves, the shadow of those years still lingered, making him feel a slight pain in his kidneys whenever he thought of it.
Yet Tang Nan was quite happy, walking around campus, introducing him to her schoolâs facilities, canteen, library, and even took him to the dormitories where she stayed back then.
Probably because the term just started, rows of laundry were being dried, quite a sight.
At half-past six, they came out, and Tang Nanâs assistant came to pick her up by car, while Su Qing didnât go back immediately, saying heâd visit Su He later.
After all, it was already his third day there, and he needed to find time to return within the next couple of days.
As for the material video for "Sister with Nothing Better to Do," Tang Nan said she would help inquire about it, which meant his purpose for coming to the capital was achieved.
As for his ID card, he didnât manage to retrieve it yesterday, even using a video threat didnât work, leaving him a bit disheartened.
Luckily, the narration hinted that the opportunity for getting the ID back didnât rest with him but with Shen Yiâs attitude. Knowing this, he felt assured, thinking Shen Yi would soften once âwater and electricity are cut offâ, allowing Tang Nan to release him. She wouldnât possibly detain him for real, right?
At seven-thirty, it was already dark, the military training was still ongoing on the playground but was less strict than it was during the day.
Some instructors, seeing their students were really exhausted, allowed them to rest in place without returning to the dorms, planning to send them back later.
Many students gathered in formations, letting those with talents perform, marking this as a rare break.
Moreover, the new university students had a penchant for flaunting individuality, and those with talents were keen to showcase them.
Whether it be playing guitar and singing, martial arts performances, or dance students showing off duo dances, it was lively, almost rivaling a large school gala, drawing bursts of exclamations from students.
At this moment, Su Qing was sitting on the lawn, surrounded by four young girls in camouflage, each drinking the cold beverages he brought.
"So thoughtful of you, brother, to think of your sister so late at night. I knew it, Iâve got a place in your heart. Seeing how dedicated you are, Iâll forgive you for now!"
Ah, here comes Lin Daiyuâs melodramatic act again.
"Stop it, Mom and Dad sent me to check on you, Iâm just following orders. Also, you lost face yourself, Mom kicked you out of the group chat, it has nothing to do with me, forgiving me as if I did something wrong?" Su Qing snatched the cold drink from her hand, saying.
Watching the drink being taken away, Su He was like she suffered a great grievance, "Look at that, just because I said a few more words my dear brother acts this way. Oh well, in the end, Iâve been despised by my brother, not as pretty as the other sisters.
Making brother angry must be my fault, this heart of mine, colder than ice in the chilling winter.
When brother returns to Jiang City tomorrow, leaving sister to endure the training and hardships alone!"
Saying so, Su He even glanced at the cold drinks held by the other three dorm mates.
Someone who didnât know might really think he was showing such partiality.
In response, Lv Xiaoxia, Ying Tiantian, and Tao Qian looked dumbfounded at this pair of siblings, feeling a bit of the Daiyu vibes.
Though they hadnât known each other for long, they had never seen Su He act this way, someone who didnât know might think it was an acting class, such a top-notch performance.
In response, Su Qing felt a chill, feeling so vexed, wanting to punch her, but no, sheâs his own sister, old Suâs little sweetheart, and with so many people here, it might cause a misunderstanding, yet, really wanted to take action!
Luckily, Lv Xiaoxia gave him an out.
"Brother Su, was Da Huang stung badly? Could you bring Da Huang along next time, or could we visit Da Huang in Jiang City when weâre on holiday? Iâm a fan!"
Hearing this, Su Qingâs expression finally improved, he shoved the cold drink into Lv Xiaoxiaâs hand and smiled, "Of course, whenever itâs the winter or summer break, youâre welcome to come, and I can host you all!"
"Brother Su, was that person sitting next to you this morning really Brother Nan?" Ying Tiantian asked curiously.
Su Qing nodded.
"Wow, what a pity, Iâm her fan, could you get me an autographed photo?"
Suddenly, a particularly abrupt voice chimed in, "Susu said you have a girlfriend and even showed us a photo. Sheâs really pretty, so why are you with Tang Nan, Brother Su?"
Everyone: ...
At this moment, Tao Qian was covering her mouth, looking a bit flustered.
Fortunately, after three days together, the other girls knew this petite girl was typically blunt and socially awkward, often fumbling her words without any ill intent.
To this, Su He began to explain, "Brother Nan is my sister-in-lawâs friend, my brother knows her too, theyâve even collaborated on videos, donât you remember?"
Upon hearing this, the others nodded, indicating understanding.
Tao Qian nodded earnestly, "Right, right, right, I thought Brother Su brought his girlfriend along!"
Everyone: ...
"Brother, donât mind, Qianqian, she... has social anxiety. Whenever she talks to strangers, her language system seems to malfunction. Look at her, sheâs so small, we canât bear to blame her!" Su He, unusually, explained for her friend.
Su Qing naturally wouldnât argue with a kid, and she hadnât said anything particularly offensive.
Glancing at Tao Qian, petite, a complete lolita, Su He was 165 cm, standing together youâd think they were sisters.
[A battle-minded talent born for graduate entrance exams, her lack of personality traits makes her unbeatable in this field, with a 100% success rate!]
He couldnât help but sigh, "Playing more with her will help with the graduate exams!"
The three: ???
Through his many years of observation, he concluded that petite, particularly introverted girls were incredibly fierce when it came to graduate exams.
