Classmate Li Zhuangsheng doesn’t want to be reborn
Chapter 658 Jade Arrives
Chapter 658 Jade Arrives
"Yo!"
The speaker was a tall, beautiful young woman.
She wore a sun hat askew, oversized sunglasses, and denim shorts, revealing her long, shapely legs that were a work of art. Even renowned artists would likely struggle to sculpt such beautiful legs without a reference.
"You came without even letting me know beforehand," Li Zhuangsheng said with a smile as he took the suitcase.
"I've got a surprise for you!" The girl perked up her sunglasses on her head, a hint of playfulness and smugness in her eyes. "How about it? Surprised? Happy?"
"Unexpected! So happy!" Li Zhuangsheng nodded vigorously. "Is the hotel ready yet?"
"How can I drive alone? I'll stay at your place!" The girl stretched. "It's decided!"
"Where am I? I do have empty beds, but there are no sheets or blankets. I'll get you a room, you can stay there."
"Too much trouble, you go buy it!" The girl lightly hit him, puffing out her chest with a snort, "You brat, get your act together, I'm your sugar mommy! If you keep talking nonsense, all the tips I give you from now on will be in apples!"
"Alright, alright, you win!" Li Zhuangsheng laughed nonstop. "Let's go to my place first and put your suitcase down. How many days are you staying in Nanjing this time? I'll show you around."
"That depends on your performance. If you do well, you can stay a few more days. If you don't, I'm going back to Hangzhou tomorrow!" the girl said haughtily. "Let me tell you, I'm very unhappy right now!"
Li Zhuangsheng blinked: "Who upset you this time?"
The girl grumbled and pointed at Li Zhuangsheng's nose: "Who else could it be but you!"
Li Zhuangsheng immediately cried out in despair: "Injustice! Village Chief, please see the truth! I have always regarded you as my benefactor, and my sincerity is as clear as the sun and moon. How could I dare to provoke you without cause? There must be some villain stirring things up!"
The girl raised an eyebrow: "Then let me ask you, why didn't you come to my competition in Jilin last month?"
"Are you referring to the race where you made it to the national 100-meter finals in your very first competition?"
"Humph!"
Li Zhuangsheng immediately straightened his attitude: "No excuses, it's all my fault. This time you're coming to Nanjing, I'll treat you, you won't have to spend a single penny!"
"Humph~"
"You're really amazing! You're not even in the second year of junior high yet, and you can already run over 12 seconds. If you make it to the finals this time, you'll definitely get a medal next time!"
Li Zhuangsheng flattered the other person, his eyes involuntarily glancing at his legs. Although the other person would only be in the second year of junior high school after the start of the semester, his height of over 1.7 meters was already fully grown.
Who would remember that she was a little girl when we first met two years ago, but now she's completely transformed into a mature woman!
"Hum~"
"Let's go, let me treat you to a milk tea first!"
"I'm a professional athlete, I don't drink that kind of junk food!"
"You really don't want to drink?"
"...Then I'll give you face and have a drink!" She glanced at Li Zhuangsheng's university gate.
The girl was Qin Luanyu. Today, she suddenly showed up at Li Zhuangsheng's university gate and called him, ordering him to come and pick her up immediately.
Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback and immediately rode his electric scooter from the company to come over. It wasn't surprising that Qin Luanyu came to Nanjing, but she hadn't even given him a heads-up… After all, she was a minor; she was incredibly bold.
After leaving the milk tea shop, Qin Luanyu sat on an electric scooter, one arm around Li Zhuangsheng's waist, the other sipping her iced milk tea.
"Your electric scooter is so shabby! Don't you run an animation company? Why are you still riding such a beat-up vehicle?" Qin Luanyu said with a look of disgust.
"I'll try to change it before school starts!"
"What kind of car should I get? A Mercedes or a BMW? Those are too tacky. Let's get a Porsche, or a Maserati would be fine too."
"Yadea Z3!"
"Yadea Z3?" Qin Luanyu was taken aback. "A sports car? That's quite niche!"
"You don't even know Yadea? You're riding a Yadea right now!"
"It's still an electric scooter!"
Qin Luanyu was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
Li Zhuangsheng dismissed it: "What's wrong with electric bikes? Looks like you really don't understand!"
"Haha, actually I wanted to buy an electric scooter too, but my dad and Aunt Song wouldn't let me, saying it was too dangerous, and they only let me ride a bicycle!" Qin Luanyu said, her tone quite indignant.
"I've seen the photos you posted. Your bicycle looks pretty cool. What brand is it?"
"I've forgotten, I only know it's made of carbon fiber, and it cost a few hundred thousand yuan. If you like it, I'll send it to you when I get back!"
"No, no, no! I'm destined to be poor. The fortune teller said that if I ever ride a bicycle that costs more than four figures, I'll suffer a bloody disaster!"
Qin Luanyu burst into laughter again, and Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but laugh as well.
Soon, Li Zhuangsheng swiped his card to enter the residential area.
"The accommodations are quite luxurious!" Qin Luanyu said, looking at the two-story townhouse in front of her.
"Yes, but there are no sheets or blankets. Let's go out and buy some later." Li Zhuangsheng parked the car casually, dragged his suitcase down, and invited Qin Luanyu inside.
Where are your sister and your boyfriend?
The villa was quiet and silent. Qin Luanyu looked around.
“Your girlfriend doesn’t live here. Li Xiuyu and her friend went to driving school!” Li Zhuangsheng patted Qin Luanyu’s back lightly. “Come on, let’s go to the supermarket now. It’s best to wash the sheets after we buy them. It’s so hot, they’ll definitely be dry by tonight.”
Qin Luanyu nodded, swaying her head as she followed behind Li Zhuangsheng.
"Hey, hey, let me ride it!" Qin Luanyu couldn't help but say as she saw Li Zhuangsheng get on the electric scooter.
"You ride one?" Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback. "Have you ever ridden an electric scooter?"
"I'm a pro at cycling; I can even ride hands-free!"
"Just because you can ride a bicycle doesn't mean you can ride an electric scooter... And if you ride a bicycle without holding the handlebars again, I'll kill you!"
Back when Li Zhuangsheng first rode his electric scooter, he wobbled all the way and almost fell over.
"Oh, let me ride it! Let me ride it!" Qin Luanyu grabbed the handlebars of Li Zhuangsheng's electric scooter, acting coquettishly.
"Didn't you complain about my old car?" Li Zhuangsheng teased with a smile.
"Oh~ Let me ride it for a bit! Please! I brought you a gift this time!"
"Where's the gift?"
"It's in the box, I'll get it for you when I come back!"
"Okay, then be careful, don't fall."
Qin Luanyu immediately promised to drive safely, and Li Zhuangsheng finally gave up the "driver's seat".
"I've got it!" Having tricked the car, Qin Luanyu laughed wildly and instantly floored the accelerator. "I'm taking off!"
"Fuck..."
Li Zhuangsheng felt as if he was about to be propelled out of the air, and instinctively hugged Qin Luanyu's waist tightly.
Qin Luanyu had a smug expression on her face. After leaving the residential area, she became even more arrogant, rushing around recklessly. Li Zhuangsheng was so frightened that he couldn't help but scream "Slow down! Slow down!"
"Cool!"
Qin Luanyu stopped the car at a large supermarket nearby, smiling broadly.
"You want to die with me?!" Li Zhuangsheng pulled out the car keys, furious.
"I know what I'm doing!" Qin Luanyu patted her chest.
Li Zhuangsheng warned seriously: "It's one thing for you to ride an electric scooter, but whatever you do, don't ever ride a motorcycle again!"
Judging by Qin Luanyu's riding style, an accident while riding a motorcycle is highly probable. "I'm not riding a motorcycle, it's too heavy!" Qin Luanyu waved her hand, "Now I finally understand why you like riding electric bikes!"
"Because I get carsick, I don't like riding in cars, and electric bikes are also easy to park."
"It's not just that!" Qin Luanyu crossed her arms. "Riding an electric scooter really feels like riding a horse, so free and easy!"
Li Zhuangsheng was stunned. Did Qin Luanyu think the same way? It seems that all chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) sufferers share the same thing.
During his student days, he loved the feeling of the wind blowing across his face when he rode an electric scooter. This often led him to hallucinate that he was galloping freely across the grasslands or chasing after fleeing soldiers with a sword drawn and on horseback.
My inner chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) was slightly satisfied.
Now, they occasionally pop up.
While motorcycles may seem like a better alternative to electric bikes, they are dangerous, restrictive, and noisy. For someone like Li Zhuangsheng who values his life, an electric bike is the perfect vehicle!
"Then you must prefer riding motorcycles, right?" Li Zhuangsheng probed. If Qin Luanyu showed any interest in motorcycles, he planned to teach her a lesson.
"Motorcycles are so dangerous!" Qin Luanyu said matter-of-factly. "I'm definitely going to buy an electric scooter when I get back this time!"
Li Zhuangsheng felt relieved and tapped Qin Luanyu on the head, "You have to wear a helmet when you ride an electric bike!"
After leaving the supermarket, Qin Luanyu still wanted to ride her electric scooter, but considering the horror of the journey there, Li Zhuangsheng resolutely refused to let go. However, Qin Luanyu pouted and acted coquettishly, and Li Zhuangsheng finally agreed.
This time, Qin Luanyu was much more composed, although she barely slowed down along the way.
"Retreat is a word that can never be uttered," Qin Luanyu said, a smile playing on her lips as she hummed a song softly.
Li Zhuangsheng was taken aback, then heard Qin Luanyu continue humming:
"Surrender is a posture that you're not willing to learn."
The pursuit continues relentlessly, giving the enemy no chance to catch their breath.
Victory means another crushing blow to evil!
We are the heroes of light.
We are Armor Heroes.
We are the nemesis of shadows.
We are, the Armor Heroes!
She sang with increasing enthusiasm, and her body couldn't help but sway back and forth.
"Hey! Keep it steady!" Li Zhuangsheng quickly reminded him, "This is a second-hand electric scooter I bought for a thousand silver dollars, not your Guangyingju!"
Qin Luanyu ignored him and continued humming her song.
"Have you watched 'Armor Hero' too? It's been so many years, hasn't it?"
"I watched it when I was a kid, and we still have the DVDs at home!" Qin Luanyu snorted. "I watched the movie again a couple of days ago!"
Li Zhuangsheng nodded, but Qin Luanyu's body was still swaying slightly. He couldn't help but wonder, does anyone really not fantasize about a celestial steed while riding an electric scooter?
"No retreat! I, in my combined armor, will meet the attack head-on!"
"Never surrender! Armored Warriors can traverse through light and shadow!"
Qin Luanyu continued humming, and infected by her carefree mood, Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but hum along:
"For justice, we will not allow the enemy even a moment's respite."
To achieve victory, let's deliver another crushing blow to evil!
"Haha, you sing off-key!" Qin Luanyu laughed loudly.
"Damn it!" Li Zhuangsheng's face flushed red, and he was furious with embarrassment: "Just ride your bike properly and stop rambling on!"
Back home, Li Zhuangsheng opened the quilt and checked the label; the summer quilt could only be hand-washed. He then stuffed the sheets into the washing machine and dragged the cup into the bathroom.
"What are you doing?" Qin Luanyu asked curiously.
"I'll wash your quilt and take it out to air it as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to use it tonight," Li Zhuangsheng said, putting the newly bought quilt into the bathtub.
"Isn't this new? No need to wash it!"
“New things aren’t necessarily clean, let’s wash it a little.” Li Zhuangsheng filled the bathtub with water.
It wouldn't matter if it were his own blanket, but she is, after all, a pampered young lady, like the Princess and the Pea!
"By the way, did you let Aunt Song know you were safe when you got here?" Li Zhuangsheng asked.
"I told you so long ago!"
Li Zhuangsheng nodded and began washing the blankets, quickly becoming drenched in sweat. Qin Luanyu sat beside him watching, feeling a pang of sympathy. If she had been willing to stay in a hotel, he wouldn't be suffering like this now.
"Let me help you!" Qin Luanyu said.
"It's alright, a quick wash will do..." Li Zhuangsheng wiped the sweat from his brow.
About twenty minutes later, Li Zhuangsheng pulled the quilt out of the water and wrung it out vigorously.
"Ouch, my back..." Li Zhuangsheng rubbed his back and took the wet blanket out to air it.
"How about we spin it in the washing machine?" Qin Luanyu suggested.
"The label says machine washing is prohibited, so it's best not to spin it in the washing machine either. It's okay, the sun's strong today, it'll definitely dry!"
After hanging up the sheets and blankets, Li Zhuangsheng hurriedly returned to the bedroom, turned on the air conditioner, and lay down on the bed with a groan.
Doing this kind of physical labor in this sweltering heat is just too exhausting.
"Let me give you a massage!" Qin Luanyu coughed lightly. "I know how to relax muscles!"
"Okay, go ahead and press!" Li Zhuangsheng lazily turned over.
So Qin Luanyu took action, pressing down on Li Zhuangsheng, causing him to almost cry out in pain.
"What are you doing pressing a hammer?!" Li Zhuangsheng exclaimed, realizing he had been tricked.
"That's how my coach massages me! She's amazing!"
How powerful can it be?
"I told you before, she was once the national women's sprint champion!"
"There are so many competitions across the country, big and small. Who knows if that championship is even worth the effort... Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
After Qin Luanyu's antics, Li Zhuangsheng felt even more exhausted.
"How is it? Much better, right?" Qin Luanyu said with considerable pride.
"Good my ass! You don't know anything at all!" Li Zhuangsheng roared.
"Then I'll massage it for you again!"
Qin Luanyu refused to accept this, straddled Li Zhuangsheng, grabbed his arm and placed it on her chest, pressing down hard.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Li Zhuangsheng cried out in pain, "Okay, okay, I feel much better!"
Qin Luanyu then let go.
Li Zhuangsheng got up speechlessly, but couldn't bring himself to say anything reproachful. The other person looked like an adult, but was still a little kid at heart, so he didn't want to argue with her.
"What do you want to eat for lunch?" Li Zhuangsheng sighed helplessly.
"What are some good places to eat in Nanjing?" Qin Luanyu shook her head.
"Authentic XY Lobster".
"Uh-huh?"
"Just kidding. Let me rest for a while, and I'll treat you to a meal. It just so happens that Li Xiuyu is also coming back for lunch, along with another friend."
Qin Luanyu nodded, but showed no concern for Li Xiuyu, her eyes darting around inscrutable as she asked, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet... how did you and Sister Mengdie get together?"
