Chapter 453: Hypocrisy is part of civilization (asking for monthly ticket subscription)
Lushan Mountain surrounds lightly, and Xiang River flows gently.
In the evening, Shonan University is quiet.
In the green shade at the northeast corner of the Dongfanghong Square, there stands the Zibei Pavilion. As the sun sets, students in camouflage uniforms return to their nests like tired birds. In the distance, the Lushan Mountain is majestic and lush. The Aiwan Pavilion is filled with the afterglow of the setting sun. Closely adjacent to it is the Yuelu Academy. At this moment, this thousand-year-old institution of learning is filled with music and singing, and only in Chu are there talented people, and they are flourishing here.
Zhang Yunqi sat on a stone bench by the road, listening to the music floating in the distance, and asked Zhao Yihan: "What's wrong with your foot?"
Zhao Yihan said: "You want to laugh at me again, right?"
Zhang Yunqi had no choice. This girl seemed a little confused and often encountered small problems. "I'm just concerned about my classmates."
Zhao Yihan curled his lips: "Hypocrisy!"
Zhang Yunqi nodded and admitted: "You think hypocrisy is okay, because part of civilization is hypocrisy, but the essence of this hypocrisy is neutral, without deception or malice."
Zhao Yihan let out a "Hey Yo" and limped over to sit on the stone bench: "Can you still have such a profound insight?"
Zhang Yunqi asked, "What are you talking about? What kind of person do you think I am?"
Zhao Yihan thought for a moment with his big eyes wide open, and said, "On the surface, he looks simple, kind, and invisible. But in reality, humph, deep down, he doesn't care about anyone."
Zhang Yunqi smiled and said, "That makes sense. But what kind of boys do you girls in the dormitory like to talk about?"
Zhao Yihan thought for a moment, and suddenly said in a low voice: "The Jin Shengze in your dormitory..."
Zhang Yunqi said happily: "Did you discuss it?"
Zhao Yihan's cute face immediately turned red, and she bared her little canine teeth: "I didn't!" After a pause, she added: "I haven't thought about falling in love!"
Zhang Yunqi said, "You have so much beautiful youth in college, but you don't want to fall in love and go to Mount Wutai to become a nun?"
Zhao Yihan snorted and said, "If you want me to like someone like you, then I would rather become a nun."
Zhang Yunqi nodded: "Okay."
Zhao Yihan felt that her words were quite hurtful, but the boy in front of her didn't seem to take it to heart at all.
Zhang Yunqi asked again: "By the way, what happened to your foot?"
Zhao Yihan's attitude softened, and he said, "After the military training at noon, I accidentally sprained my ankle while going up the stairs, and it's swollen."
Zhang Yunqi said: "Doesn't that mean we can't continue military training?"
Zhao Yihan's face was full of sorrow: "Yes."
Zhang Yunqi said: "This is great, go back to the dormitory and have a good rest."
Zhao Yihan said subconsciously: "I'm so hungry. I haven't had dinner yet."
Zhang Yunqi asked: "Can you walk? Why don't you have a roommate to accompany you?"
Zhao Yihan said, "I can walk, but it hurts a lot, and my ankle is swollen. They accompanied me to see a doctor at noon, and they had military training in the afternoon. They didn't come back, and I was hungry, so I came out by myself."
Zhang Yunqi nodded, stood up and said, "It's getting late, let's go eat if we can."
Zhao Yihan originally thought that Zhang Yunqi would behave like other boys and be a gentleman. Regardless of whether she agreed or not, as a boy and classmate, he should at least offer to help her. However, this boy didn't seem to have any intention of doing so, so she couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you help me?"
"There are differences between men and women. I can't do this kind of thing."
"Zhang Yunqi! You are so annoying, you must remember this!" Zhao Yihan was completely furious. She watched Zhang Yunqi walking in front of her. After a few steps, his figure disappeared around the corner in front of her. She felt angry and aggrieved, and her left ankle was aching slightly.
Zhao Yihan sat back on the stone bench. Just as he was about to get furious, he saw Zhang Yunqi's figure suddenly coming back from the corner of the road.
Zhang Yunqi rode a bicycle and stopped in front of her. He said, "I was just kidding you. I'm going to ride my bicycle. Your foot is injured and it will hurt if I help you. Get on the bike. I'll take you to dinner."
Zhao Yihan had a blank expression on his face, then shrank his head and asked, "Where did you get the bicycle?"
Zhang Yunqi said, "There are a lot of bikes parked outside the boys' dormitory. Just say hello and borrow one. Your foot is injured, so you can't ride a bike. I'll help you walk. It's such a long distance, how long will it take?"
"You are very considerate."
"It's rare to hear you praise me."
"Actually, I did it against my will." Zhao Yihan raised his little head.
"It seems that you also understand that hypocrisy is part of civilization." Zhang Yunqi patted the back seat, waited for Zhao Yihan to sit down with a stern face, and then asked: "Do you want to eat in the cafeteria or should I take you to a restaurant outside?" Zhao Yihan was not polite at all, and it seemed that the accident caused by Zhang Yunqi did not completely calm her down: "Of course outside!"
Zhang Yunqi rode a bicycle, carrying Zhao Yihan across the East Red Square. Under the dimming lights of the night, they walked north from Lushan South Road and soon arrived at Fallen Street.
Zhang Yunqi found a Sichuan restaurant.
After they sat down, Zhang Yun ordered the meal. Zhao Yihan drank a sip of milk and said, "You are quite thoughtful. I told you that I am from Chengdu and you remembered it."
Zhang Yunqi ordered a few dishes and handed them to the waitress, smiling and saying, "What's the point of being so thoughtful? If you want to find a boyfriend in the future, this can be ranked last among your criteria for choosing a partner. Appearance, money, and future are what you girls should focus on."
Zhao Yihan pouted: "I won't! I want this to be ranked first!" After a pause, she continued: "Then what are your general criteria for choosing a partner?"
Zhang Yunqi said: "Boys' mate selection criteria have always been simple and have never changed. They choose the most beautiful woman within their reach."
"shallow!"
“That’s just the reality.”
"So who is the girl that you guys in the boys' dormitory talk about the most?"
"You and Li Yusheng."
"Am I prettier or is Li Yusheng prettier?"
"If you're in front of me, I'll definitely say you're pretty."
When Zhao Yihan heard this, there was murderous intent in his eyes: "In front of Li Yusheng?"
Zhang Yunqi said, "What Li Yusheng? I don't know him at all."
Zhao Yihan chuckled.
Under the light, the girl's eyes were curved, and she pouted her lips as she said, "I never thought you have such a cute side."
"Thank you for praising me twice today." Zhang Yunqi picked up the beer and took a sip.
In fact, everything he said was true.
It seems that everyone recognizes that the top girls in their School of Economics and Management are Zhao Yihan and Li Yusheng.
He didn't pay much attention to the girl Li Yusheng. It was just that the animals in the dormitory talked about her all day long, so it was hard not to know about her. However, the girl's name always reminded him of Li Yufei.
The two names differ by only one character.
Fallen Street is located between Hunan University and Normal University. Li Yufei should be nearby too.
After the food was served, Zhao Yihan picked up his chopsticks and was about to eat. Seeing that Zhang Yunqi had no intention of moving his chopsticks, he asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Zhang Yunqi said: "I have eaten."
Zhao Yihan said "uh", "How embarrassing!"
Zhang Yunqi said, "I'm sorry, just eat less."
Zhao Yihan snorted: "You just gave me a good impression of you, and now you're mad at me again!"
Zhang Yunqi smiled and took a sip of beer. The angry Zhao Yihan had already picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Her mood did not affect the appetite of this girl from Chengdu at all.
Zhang Yunqi specially ordered three Sichuan dishes: fish with fermented black beans, Kung Pao chicken and Mapo tofu, plus a corn and pork ribs soup, which was quite a sumptuous meal.
The girls Zhang Yunqi knew were not very good at eating. Chu Jian was not picky about food but ate little. Li Yufei was a little spoiled, and it was understandable that her family was well-off. The one who could not eat the most was Ji Ling. Every time she ate, she would just stuff a few grains of rice into her mouth. Every time he served her rice, he only had to cover the bottom of the bowl.
Zhao Yihan is probably the girl who eats the most.
Under the dim light, Zhang Yunqi watched Zhao Yihan shoveling rice and vegetables into his mouth. His cheeks were stuffed so full that he looked like a cute little squirrel with a plate of food.
People who eat a lot usually eat fast. After they finished eating, Zhang Yunqi thought they were about to leave, so he reached out to call the waitress over to pay the bill. Suddenly, Zhao Yihan whispered, "Can I have another bowl of rice?"
Zhang Yunqi was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, and asked the waitress to bring another bowl of fragrant rice that was steaming.
Zhao Yihan buried his little head and ate it all with a crunch.
