13: Chapter 13 An Yiqing Goes Viral (2) 13: Chapter 13 An Yiqing Goes Viral (2) The phone rang suddenly, and Ruan Hao, who had been asleep, furrowed his brow and snapped his eyes open, devoid of any trace of sleepiness.
He listened to the phone call for a while, and his expression turned ugly.
“Drive to Mu Yun Group, take me there,” Ruan Hao ordered after some thought.
He hadn’t expected so much to have happened during the days he was away.
As soon as Ruan Xue heard that, she swiftly turned the steering wheel and headed towards Mu Yun Group.
Her brother was the general manager of Mu Yun Group and was always busy with a multitude of tasks.
He had just gotten off the plane, and now he was about to get busy again.
After dropping off Ruan Hao at his destination, Ruan Xue drove herself home.
She had risen too early in the morning and planned to catch up on some sleep.
Lying in bed, she grabbed her iPad intending to read something to feel sleepy, but when she entered the school forum, she shot up in bed, shocked.
“Xuan University’s new Campus Beauty An Yiqing saves someone on campus, her medical arts so advanced they embarrass the experts!”
Clicking on the post, she skimmed through it line by line, muttering, “Damn!
Qingqing did such an earth-shattering thing while I was away!
Full of dominance, I like it!”
Ruan Xue tossed the iPad aside, picked up her phone, and dialed An Yiqing’s number.
As An Yiqing was eating grapes and reading a book when Ruan Xue called her, she glanced at the phone and answered.
Before she could even speak, Ruan Xue’s excited voice erupted from the other end, “Qingqing, you’re doing great!
I think you’re starting to be as impressive as me, so imposing and powerful!
Without Gu Tingting and me around, you actually pulled off such an incredible feat!”
Blinking in confusion, An Yiqing waited for Ruan Xue to finish before asking, “What are you talking about?”
Ruan Xue choked for a second, almost rolling her eyes.
In her excitement, she forgot that An Yiqing, the stunningly oblivious beauty, never checked the forum, and probably wouldn’t be one to sing her own praises about saving lives and treating the ill.
“Check out our school forum, you’re the top headline.
The Campus Beauty of Xuan University doing medical treatment and saving lives, beauty and talent in one!
Qingqing, you’ve made us in the dorm very proud.
Later, I’m going to post something titled ‘My Roommate is the Campus Beauty’!
Such an eye-catching title will surely be a hit!
I’m going to reveal your measurements and the color of your underwear!
I won’t talk more now, I’m off to post!
Bye!” Not giving An Yiqing a chance to respond, Ruan Xue rapidly finished speaking and hung up.
An Yiqing looked at the disconnected call, bemused.
She wasn’t worried Ruan Xue would actually reveal her measurements and underwear color, since Xiao Xue, despite her fiery temper, always acted appropriately.
What made An Yiqing both amused and exasperated was Ruan Xue’s impulsive nature.
Hmm, the school forum?
Alright, she’d take a look.
An Yiqing picked up her iPad, opened the school forum, looked at the glaring headline, then read the content of the post, and her head immediately buzzed.
Wasn’t this an exaggeration?
She was almost portrayed as the merciful Guanyin Bodhisattva!
…Alright, maybe it’s better not to look, she thought to herself, lest she gets tempted to ascend to immortality…
Well, that was An Yiqing’s rather gloriously unfulfilled venture into the forum.
Hurry!” Shen Feng called out excitedly from in front of the computer.
“What’s the matter?” Shen Long, hearing his sister’s call, strolled over leisurely.
Shen Feng grabbed Shen Long immediately, “Check out the forum, Qingqing is the top news!”
Shen Long, realizing what she meant, looked at the screen, his expression growing increasingly shocked.
While Shen Feng might be hooting senselessly just because she liked An Yiqing’s personality, Shen Long was much more rational than Shen Feng.
He analyzed the situation quickly in his mind as he read.
If he had thought An Yiqing was distinguished last night, today he elevated her to an entirely new level in his mind.
Such a capable person, if not a friend, must at least be kept as a friendly contact, as it would be beneficial for both himself and his family.
The Shen Family was also among the elite in Xuandu City.
Old Master Shen had once been a subordinate of Old Master Gu Zhongyi.
However, later he left the military to pursue business.
Leveraging his prestige and ability, he had remarkably managed to develop Shen’s into one of the top fifty strongest companies nationwide.
Unfortunately, the second generation of the Shen Family was not as competent, and they gradually struggled to keep pace with the other top families.
However, Old Master Shen was consoled by the fact that his grandchildren were far better than their father.
He had now pinned all his hopes on Shen Long and Shen Feng.
Shen Feng had a forthright personality, quite akin to a tomboy, and had aspired to become a soldier since her childhood.
After finishing high school, she enrolled in the best military academy in Xuandu City.
Old Master Shen, having a military background himself, fully supported Shen Feng’s decision.
Shen Long, born just a minute before Shen Feng, had a very different temperament.
He was steady and reserved.
Throughout high school, he was required by Old Master Shen to start handling various affairs of Shen’s.
His thoughts weren’t as simple as Shen Feng’s; he thought about things more deeply.
But thankfully, Shen Long had a good heart, not allowing worldly wisdom to blind him to what was right.
At noon, as agreed, An Yiqing invited Tang Lin to lunch.
Knowing An Yiqing’s love for gourmet food, he took her through streets and alleys to a well-known private restaurant.
The establishment was small with an exquisitely delicate vintage decor, run by a middle-aged couple with kind faces.
Rumor had it that the male proprietor was a descendant of a Qing Palace Imperial Chef.
An Yiqing loved spicy food and had the fortune of a zit-free face, something Ruan Xue and Gu Tingting had once decried as heavenly injustice, before promptly taking advantage of several of An Yiqing’s treat meals.
An Yiqing and Tang Lin ordered some of the restaurant’s signature dishes, enough to satisfy them both.
After the food arrived, An Yiqing tasted it and nodded with stars in her eyes—yum, delicious.
Observing her content expression, Tang Lin’s handsome mouth unconsciously curled into a smile.
He knew Xiao Qing, the foodie, would enjoy this place, making all his searching worthwhile.
