Chapter 112: Chapter 112
This year’s welcome party was broadcast live on the university’s intranet.
Initially, there were very few viewers until one of the four school beauties, Luo Susu, took the stage, which instantly gained traction.
Of course, in terms of the proportion of students at the school, those watching the broadcast were still a minority among minorities.
However, word of mouth spread quickly, and everyone logged into the intranet after hearing about it, coming to watch Luo Susu’s performance, or more accurately, her appearance...
The number of video playback times went from just a few hundred to fifty thousand, indicating that most people at the school watched it.
This was unimaginable in the history of party videos. For instance, the party videos from last year and the year before have just reached ten thousand views.
Most of this credit belongs to Luo Susu, representing the influence of one of Jiangnan’s four school beauties!
Following her performance, Lin Xi gained a bit of popularity as well. His piano piece might just be a pleasant tune in the video, but for those who understand music, it’s a masterpiece, let alone those present in the venue tonight; it was an absolute show-stealer.
So after tonight, without Lin Xi realizing it, he garnered a small group of fangirls!
Of course, a group of jealous boys was inevitable too.
If people knew that Luo Susu mainly wanted to be Lin Xi’s girlfriend and was eventually refused and could only be on a trial period, who knows how many boys would want to ’draw their swords at him’.
He’d probably instantly become the public enemy of all the male students.
The last one to gain a wave of fans was Gu Xiaoxian. As a freshman this year, this was her first public appearance and her first performance for everyone.
Her singing of a two-dimensional song was so good that it outshone all the otakus and otome.
The most crucial thing is that in terms of looks, her style is completely different from the four school beauties; one could say she’s a beauty from another dimension.
After tonight, she was hailed as the two-dimensional goddess, also becoming one of Jiangnan University’s five school beauties.
The next morning, Lin Xi woke up early as usual.
After exercising, taking a shower, and having breakfast, he prepared to head to the Yang family.
For the past two days at school, there wasn’t much going on. Classes only start after military training, which hasn’t been notified yet, but should begin in the next few days.
Carrying medicinal herbs, Lin Xi hailed a taxi at the school gate and headed straight to the Yang family.
Yang Xin’s condition, after his unique treatment, had opened a small crack in her closed heart.
If left unchecked, it would soon close again, making future treatment much harder.
This time, Lin Xi did not prepare for a targeted second treatment for her. Such things can’t be rushed.
Instead, he planned to regulate her body with medication, preparing for subsequent treatments.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of the military compound. Apparently, such cars aren’t allowed inside, so Lin Xi had to pay and get off.
After making a call, Elder Yang immediately sent someone to pick him up.
The second time he met Elder Yang, his mental state had evidently improved quite a bit. As soon as he saw Lin Xi, he was very excited, "Thanks to little friend Lin, Xiaoxin has shown quite a bit of change."
"What changes have happened?" Lin Xi only knew that what he did last time would definitely have an effect, but didn’t know in which aspect.
Elder Yang was startled, thinking Lin Xi knew, and then explained after coming to his senses.
"So, she’s not home now?" Lin Xi understood the general situation. Since his treatment last time, Yang Xin didn’t need reminders to eat, and had even gone out to meet friends today.
For Elder Yang, who had seen no change for several months, this was simply unimaginable.
In the end, Lin Xi didn’t wait for Yang Xin to come back, explained to Elder Yang the method of concocting medicine and the precautions for taking it, then took his leave.
Elder Yang wanted Lin Xi to stay for lunch, but Lin Xi declined, so he sent him back to school in a military vehicle.
Before reaching the school, Lin Xi’s WeChat kept ringing!
Looking at it, it was Peng Bo and three others mentioning him at the same time, asking where he was and to come back quickly, otherwise something big would happen.
Lin Xi asked what was the matter, and the three didn’t reply, seemingly not looking at their phones at the moment...
"Brother, drive faster, there’s something urgent at school!" Lin Xi said to the soldier driving him, who seemed to be in his thirties.
"Alright." The soldier replied straightforwardly.
The next moment, the military vehicle sped up, ignoring all red lights, rushing to the school at the fastest speed.
If Bai Bing’s driving speed was five, then this soldier’s speed was ten now.
Jiangnan University prohibited outside vehicles from entering, but apparently, no one dared to stop this military vehicle.
Until dropping Lin Xi at the dorm building, the soldier handed Lin Xi a business card, "Mr. Lin, call this number if you need anything in the future, and I’ll get there as quickly as possible."
Clearly, this soldier followed Elder Yang’s command.
Lin Xi did not hesitate, accepted the card, and noticed the person was named Yang Rui, expressing gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Yang, just call me Lin Xi from now on!"
"Alright." Yang Rui did not dawdle, nodded and asked, "Is there something urgent? Do you need my help?"
"No need, I can handle it!" Lin Xi said.
Yang Rui knew Lin Xi was an extraordinary person, didn’t say much, and drove back after Lin Xi got off.
It was roughly past nine in the morning, and the entire dormitory building was eerily quiet, indicating that everyone was still sound asleep.
Reaching the dormitory door, Lin Xi sensed four people inside!
Three were lying on beds, and one sat on his stool.
Hmm, was it a woman?
Lin Xi took out the key, with a puzzled look, and opened the dormitory door.
Upon opening, he saw a girl wearing denim shorts and a white t-shirt, a cap similar to a baseball hat, and sunglasses covering a third of her face, sitting under his bed, playing with her phone.
Meanwhile, Peng Bo and the other two were covered with blankets, their necks stretched long, occasionally glancing down, though Xiong Haitao didn’t have much of a neck.
"Luo Susu?" Lin Xi exclaimed in surprise.
The girl turned her head toward the door, saw Lin Xi, and said calmly, "You’re back,"
"Where did you go earlier?" She continued.
This tone was like questioning, as if a wife woke up in the morning and found the husband on the bed missing, and couldn’t find him in the house either.
This stirred the gossiping hearts of the three on the bed, from a small flame to a roaring fire. If this fire could kill, Lin Xi would have been burned to ashes.
Last night’s party was precisely because they knew in advance that Luo Susu would attend that their dormitory went together and watched the whole time.
Originally thinking the goddess was unreachable, considering even in four years of college they might not see her up close, but unexpectedly, the day after the party, she knocked on their dormitory door and sat inside.
But in the next moment, their faces turned ashen, their hearts despairingly sighed, "Another goddess hopped onto the boss’s pirate ship!"
