9th follower: What? What the hell? Miss Shen knows my girlfriend? Oh, I declare Song Qinghuan is my girlfriend since today! “God Bless Me. JPG”
22nd follower: I’m at the Piano Department! Guys, please tell me where they are. I wanna a cute meet.
36th follower: You can be dismissed now. They’ve finished the visiting.
Xiang Yan’s “Love Letters” went viral. Riding the momentum, Song Qinghuan, the heroine of the MV, became a sensation during last summer, but she doesn’t know that she is discussed as a hot topic again when she just enters this campus.
As another subject of the gossipy discussion, Shen Yinian is known by music learners in China, more or less.
Her parents are all famous people in the music loop, and Shen Yinian has been credited with talented girl, piano princess and etc. since she was young.
People agree that a girl like Shen Yinian is entitled to be unapproachable and arrogant.
It is beyond the onlookers’ imagination that the two beauties with different styles even walk around the campus together. So with curiosity, some guys begin to unveil the fellowship between Song Qinghuan and Shen Yinian.
However, nothing new is found except that they are in different departments.
Finally, an alumni sends a picture of the room number, which shows 666: Song Qinghuan and Shen Yinian.
These two are roommates!
No wonder they went around the campus together.
Even their room number is so lucky. Beauty is beauty.
Song Qinghuan and Shen Yinian know nothing about the discussion of the forum. The campus of XCOM is so big that they become hungry for several hours’ walking, which only covers one third of the campus.
With the help of XCOM guidebook in Song Qinghuan’s hand, she and Shen Yinian go out of the campus to eat in the nearby food street. A Mercedes Benz drives by wildly at a stone’s throw with them and stops five meters away from them.
It’s a thread’s distance, which makes students around think that the car is going to hit people and they scream.
Song Qinghuan reacts fast and pulls Shen Yinian back, who is one step ahead of her. At this moment, their hearts beat faster for they are scared. She tightly grasps Shen Yinian’s arms and asks anxiously, “Are you Ok?”
Shen Yinian’s face is a little pale, and her lower legs could not stop trembling. She is scared, but nods her head to show Song Qinghuan that she is Ok.
Song Qinghuan frowns and looks at the car. The door of the luxury car is opened, and the woman who gets off from the passenger seat is Song Shuyao.
This psycho!
Song Qinghuan doesn’t want to say hello to Song Shuyao. She is ready to take Shen Yinian to leave, but Song Shuyao stops her.
Song Shuyao is also accompanied by a man who gets off from the driver’s seat. In his early twenties, he is dressed in luxury clothes and holds a pair of large sunglasses. He does not feel sorry for what he did but looks completely arrogant.
Song Shuyao, standing three steps away from Song Qinghuan, introduces to the man next to her: “Mr. Li, this is my sister Song Qinghuan.”
The man who is called Mr. Li by Song Shuyao looks at Song Qinghuan in front of him with a smile, as if he were evaluating a piece of goods. Finally, he nods his head with satisfaction, and then arrogantly extends his golden hand for a shaking.
The man’s expression and demeanor all reveal a sense of superiority: “I’m Shuyao’s friend. My surname is Li. You can call me Mr. Li.”
That tone and arrogant attitude displease people, as if he were giving priority to Song Shuyao and Shen Yinian.
Song Qinghuan doesn’t look at the hand in front of her but moves her eyes to Song Shuyao’s face, saying with indifference: “What’s up?”
Song Shuyao finds that Song Qinghuan is hostile to her and she is a little angry, but she pretends that everything goes well. She pulls her curly hair around her ear and says to Mr. Li, “My sister has a bad temper. Don’t mind, Mr. Li.”
Song Qinghuan with a “bad temper” wants to persuade Song Shuyao to change her major. Drama school is more appropriate for her because she shames music school.
Oscar owes Song Shuyao an award!
However, Song Shuyao is addicted to playing the innocent role. She fakes an air that “although you are unreasonable, as your sister, I still love you”, saying sincerely to Song Qinghuan, “Is everything about the admission ready? We come to pick you up for dinner.”
During the conversation, Song Shuyao glances at the girl beside Song Qinghuan. She finds that the girl is unapproachable and beautiful. She does not expect that Song Qinghuan makes friends in such a short time.
Although she distains the girl in her heart, Song Shuyao nods politely to the girl and greets her with a smile, “Hello, I’m Song Shuyao, Qinghuan’s elder sister. Qinghuan has been a little lonely since childhood, and she is spoiled by our family. So I hope you can put up with her in the following school days.”
Is Song Qinghuan lonely? People will believe her if they are easy to be convinced.
But Shen Yinian just looks at Song Shuyao weirdly. She was born in a rich family. After the conversation for several minutes, she has penetrated Song Shuyao. She just nods slightly and doesn’t answer.
Song Qinghuan realizes that Song Shuyao is being sarcastic indirectly and the whole thing goes athwart with her will, so she raises the corners of her lips and says, “Thanks, but I have an appointment.”
Li Kairui, the Mr. Li called by Song Shuyao, moves in front of Song Qinghuan in a flash.
“Don’t make me embarrassed!” says Li Kairui who wears a playful smile and leans over to put his hand on Song Qinghuan’s shoulder. However, at this time, the roar of the engine attracts the attention of this group of people.
Li Kairui’s hand is frozen in the air. He turns his head to the direction of the voice. Song Qinghuan avoids his hand in disgust and pulls Shen Yinian back two steps.
From a distance comes a dark Harley, with smooth body lines extending from the front to the rear. The car makes a perfect curve when it crosses the gate of XCOM, heading towards Li Kairui.
The arrogance on Li Kairui’s face suddenly disappears. Looking pale, he tries to escape, but his legs are out of control at the critical moment. His legs are so weak that he cannot move. Seeing that he is about to be hit, Li Kairui stretches out his hand and pulls Song Shuyao to his front!
“Ah!” Song Shuyao feels that her hair and arm are grabbed by a wild strength, but there is no pain. When she opens her eyes and finds that the car is close to her, she and Li Kairui fall on the ground feebly simultaneously.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“Damn it!” Li Kairui wipes his face and pushes Song Shuyao away from him. When he stands up, his legs are still shaking. But at this time, he ignores others and points to the driver, scolding, “What the hell are you doing? You hit me on purpose! ”
“Do you know who I am? Get off the car right now and apologize! ”
“…” Well, Song Qinghuan thinks that Li Kairui and Song Shuyao are birds of a feather, who are good at acting.
