Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Frustrating Many Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Frustrating Many With his arm draped over Su Qingqing’s shoulder, Chen Nan couldn’t help but take a deep breath. The faint fragrance coming from this girl was refreshing and incredibly pleasant to the nose.
Seeing her look somewhat dissatisfied, Chen Nan touched his nose and said, “Didn’t you say before that we’re buddies? This is pretty normal between bros. I used to do this with my junior sister all the time.”
A girl walking arm in arm with a guy, and that’s normal?
If it weren’t for Chen Nan’s pure intentions, Su Qingqing really would’ve cursed him out, “You’re such an idiot. Even buddies shouldn’t do this. Let me go, and don’t do this in the future.”
Far from letting go, Chen Nan wrapped his arms around her even tighter, “Why not? I used to hug my junior sister all the time.”
Su Qingqing was somewhat speechless. Can the things we did as children really compare to now?
“You stinky fool, are you going to let go or not?” Su Qingqing pouted slightly as she looked at Chen Nan.
Being this close to Su Qingqing and breathing in her subtle scent was both a pleasure and quite a boost to his ego. Why should he let go?
No way would he let go of such a good thing, even if it killed him!
“I won’t let go unless you don’t consider me your buddy anymore.”
Chen Nan’s face was the picture of innocence, which left Su Qingqing feeling utterly helpless. Did this guy really not understand the concept of “men and women should not be too intimate”?
Initially, Su Qingqing found it quite awkward to walk arm in arm with a man, but she gradually became accustomed to it.
Forget it, since he doesn’t have any ulterior motives, let’s just pretend it’s a woman hugging me!
With this thought in mind, Su Qingqing said, “Whatever, let’s go. It’s time for lunch.”
At that moment, Su Qingqing had no idea just how wicked Chen Nan could be, nor did she realize that this guy was actually a wolf in sheep’s clothing. If she knew that Chen Nan was actually cherishing the fragrance on her body and harboring all sorts of wicked thoughts, who knows how she would’ve reacted…
Perhaps she would have exploded with rage, flattening his nose with a punch and following it up with a ruthless kick. And then… the bloody scene was just too horrible to contemplate!
By holding onto her , Chen Nan was literally playing with his life.
Arm in arm, the two of them walked towards the cafeteria amidst laughter and chatter, making countless male students envious along the way.
When did Su Qingqing start dating? And where did this guy come from?
These were the questions on everyone’s minds.
For Su Qingqing, the school beauty, to openly embrace a male student was akin to announcing to all the male students at the school that she already had a boyfriend. In no time, many of Su Qingqing’s admirers were driven to tears, beating their chests and wallowing in despair, some even banged their heads against the wall, and in a more extreme act, someone had even bought noodles to use for hanging themselves!
Of course, these weren’t the only reactions. Some powerful figures in the school began investigating Chen Nan, planning their revenge.
In no time, the news of Su Qingqing having a boyfriend spread like a storm across the campus at an astonishing speed. And the two main characters of this drama were still oblivious, entirely unaware of the rumors swirling around them.
After lunch, Su Qingqing went to the dormitory, while Chen Nan started wandering around the campus, getting familiar with the surroundings.
For day students like Su Qingqing, the school normally wouldn’t arrange dormitories. However, there are always exceptions. At a private school like Yutan, as long as you’re willing to pay, the school would gladly arrange for a dormitory for an afternoon nap.
Having wandered the school for a bit and feeling quite bored, Chen Nan was about to head back to the classroom when, at that moment, a large fatty rushed toward him, his face full of excitement as he blurted out, “Master, I can’t believe it was true, Su Qingqing really asked you out for lunch.”
Indeed, this fatty was the guy who had been punished with the standing outside the classroom earlier.
Chen Nan sighed and shamelessly bragged, “Ah, I didn’t want to agree at first, but I had no choice. She sits right next to me and nagged me nonstop during class. If I hadn’t agreed, I probably wouldn’t be able to get any sleep during lessons.”
The fatty got even more excited upon hearing this, his face lit up with eagerness as he said, “Master, my name is Zhu Bajie, and I’m here to formally become your disciple.”
“Become my disciple? Zhu Bajie?”
Chen Nan looked him over, “Are you crazy? I’m not Tang Seng.”
Zhu Bajie scratched his head and pulled out a cigarette, offering it to Chen Nan with a chuckle, “Master, I originally just wanted to learn Chest Smashing Big Stone from you, but now it seems, your skills in charming the ladies are even more worth learning.”
“Chest Smashing Big Stone?”
Chen Nan was taken aback, “Smash your sister, I’m not a street performer. Have you gone bananas?” He then turned to leave.
“Don’t abandon me, Master!”
Zhu Bajie let out a strange cry and hurriedly chased after him, grabbing Chen Nan’s arm.
Chen Nan was somewhat speechless. This fatty really was one of a kind, his integrity shattered to pieces. “I’m abandoning your head, let go already. If someone didn’t know better, they’d think I’m into you.”
Zhu Bajie sniggered, “Master, don’t deny it. This morning, when Xiao Jiji and the others punched you in the chest, they were the ones who got knocked back so far away. Isn’t that the legendary Chest Smashing Big Stone?”
Chen Nan shook his head and, not bothering to explain, patted Zhu Bajie’s shoulder saying, “Dude, don’t be foolish. Go back to your dorm and get some sleep.” Then he walked away.
Seeing Chen Nan trying to leave, Zhu Bajie became anxious and, biting his lip, said, “As long as you agree to be my master, I’ll tell you a secret about Huo Xinya!”
