Reborn in 1999: Starting as a black marketeer

Guo Juan and the others were stunned. After a long while, they finally managed to stammer, "Brother Feiyang, you...you're really amazing! I thought you were just bragging..."

Although she and Hu Xiaoyun can be considered good cooks, their culinary skills are clearly not on the same level as Wang Feiyang's.

The few boys watching were just there for the fun, simply admiring Wang Feiyang's amazing cooking skills. Don't underestimate this; among international students, boys with good cooking skills have "priority mating rights"!

The girls had more to think about, and their eyes lit up as they looked at Wang Feiyang.

Wang Feiyang is already tall and handsome, and now he's also a great cook. Who wouldn't want to date him for a few years? Let's not talk about what happens after graduation, at least you won't have to suffer from a bad stomach while you're studying abroad, right?

Some of the bolder, more outgoing girls had already started making their move. Just as Wang Feiyang finished cooking and plating the dishes, a girl with long hair, an oval face, and a hot figure came over and asked with a grin, "Handsome, I've never seen you before. Did you just arrive?"

Before Wang Feiyang could speak, Zhang Liang quickly interjected, "Yes, Wang Feiyang and I just arrived last night. Beautiful lady, are you also in the preparatory course? What's your name?"

He had his eye on the girl as soon as she entered the kitchen, and he had been itching to strike up a conversation with her, but he hadn't found the opportunity.

The girl glanced at Zhang Liang but ignored him, continuing to smile at Wang Feiyang and say, "Your name is Wang Feiyang? That's a nice name. My name is Liu Yingying. Can you come over for a meal sometime?"

This girl is quite outgoing; she wanted to freeload a meal on our first meeting.

Wang Feiyang turned his head and was stunned when he saw Liu Yingying. What a coincidence! He knew this girl. In his previous life, the two had a relationship that went "beyond friendship". She was his ex-girlfriend.

After graduation, Wang Feiyang stayed in Moscow, while Liu Yingying went straight back to China, and they lost contact.

Of course, no one takes relationships formed during study abroad seriously, and almost none of them end up together.

So much time had passed that he didn't remember her name when he first heard it, but when he turned around and saw Liu Yingying's face, he connected it with the girl in his memory.

Recalling Liu Yingying's allure in bed, Wang Feiyang felt a surge of excitement and said with a smile, "You're welcome anytime. There's no time like the present, and today is New Year's Eve, so how about today?"

Liu Yingying's gaze swept over Wang Feiyang's face, a slight smile playing on her lips. Without hesitation, she nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll cook two dishes too, to make up the numbers."

While it might be debatable whether Liu Yingying is the most beautiful female student among Chinese students at Moscow State University, it is universally acknowledged that Wang Feiyang is the most handsome male student. In her previous life, it was Liu Yingying who pursued Wang Feiyang.

At first, Wang Feiyang hadn't adjusted his emotions and didn't pay much attention to her, appearing quite aloof. But the more he acted this way, the more excited Liu Yingying became.

Later, after Wang Feiyang changed his mind, he was moved to see that Liu Yingying hadn't given up, so they had a relationship. However, it only lasted for less than a year before they graduated and went their separate ways.

Liu Yingying was an only child, and her parents had already arranged a job for her, so she had to return to China. However, Wang Feiyang's business was already picking up, and he needed to stay in Moscow for an extended period of time.

When Wang Feiyang took her to the airport to return to China that day, Liu Yingying cried bitterly and said that she would wait for Wang Feiyang to return to China. However, both of them knew very well that this parting might be the last time they would have the chance to meet.

As it turned out, even though Wang Feiyang returned to China a few years later, China is so big that he never saw Liu Yingying again, and the two tacitly stopped contacting each other online.

…………

When Hu Xiaoyun and Guo Juan heard Wang Feiyang invite Liu Yingying to dinner, they pouted, feeling a pang of jealousy, as if their beloved toy had been snatched away.

Although the two of them and Wang Feiyang were just ordinary classmates, they were all in the same batch and trained together for several months, so their relationship felt much stronger than that of others.

"Brother Feiyang, aren't you being a bit biased? Aren't you going to invite me and Xiaoyun to dinner?" Guo Juan stepped forward and gave Liu Yingying a provocative look.

Liu Yingying glanced at her, but seeing that she posed no "threat" to her, she smiled and didn't pay any attention.

"Hehe, let's eat together then, it'll be more fun with more people! Zhang Liang, go see if Brother Zhang is back yet, and invite him to eat with us later. Don't invite anyone else, otherwise there won't be enough room to sit down."

Wang Feiyang readily agreed, saying that he would welcome anyone who came. It was just a meal together, and he did need to get along well with Guo Juan and Hu Xiaoyun, as he might need their help later!

Besides Liu Yingying, the other girls also wanted to freeload a meal, but they weren't as bold as her. They finally mustered up their courage, but Wang Feiyang's words directly rejected them. Indeed, the dormitory was only so big, and at most five or six people could sit down. They couldn't eat standing up.

…………

Since they were having a get-together, Wang Feiyang prepared two extra dishes and cooked the dishes that Hu Xiaoyun and Guo Juan had prepared as well.

Liu Yingying also made two of her signature dishes, which looked quite appetizing.

In addition, Zhang Zhongguo also put together a hearty dish: vacuum-packed Dezhou braised chicken that he bought from the market!

Zhang Liang ran downstairs to the small shop and bought a few bottles of beer and two large boxes of juice. Then he pushed two tables together in his dorm room and moved a few chairs from the next dorm room...

Wang Feiyang, Zhang Liang, Liu Yingying, Zhang Zhongguo, Hu Xiaoyun, and Guo Juan, a total of six people, sat together. The table was covered with a dazzling array of dishes that looked and smelled delicious, and it looked quite appealing.

Raising his glass to a full beer, Wang Feiyang said loudly, "Happy New Year everyone, cheers!"

The others also raised their glasses, saying, "Happy New Year!"

They drank it all in one gulp before starting to eat, and everyone praised Wang Feiyang's cooking skills.

"I never expected you to have this skill, Feiyang. Any girl who becomes your girlfriend will be so lucky," Zhang Zhongguo teased, his gaze sweeping over Liu Yingying, Hu Xiaoyun, and Guo Juan.

He was older than everyone else, so he naturally noticed the girls' feelings for Wang Feiyang.

"Hehe, there's no time to think about that now. Now that we're in Moscow, how can we not make something of ourselves? Brother Zhang, you're a smart man. It's quite chaotic here, but there are also many opportunities," Wang Feiyang said with emotion.

Zhang Zhongguo nodded. "Yes, it was because I saw the opportunities here that I gave up my public office and came here. But although there are many opportunities, it's not easy to seize them. You need to have the capital. If you don't have enough money, there's no use in worrying. You can only watch others make big money and eat meat while you pick up the scraps and drink the soup."

He'd been working at the market for a few months now, and these were his honest thoughts!
