Chapter 109: Chapter 106 Swords Drawn and Bows Bent
Chapter 109 -106 Swords Drawn and Bows Bent
At 8:30 in the evening, the street leading to Beijing University was bustling and lively. Many parents who had come from out of town to drop off their children were choosing to stroll nearby after having dinner.
There were also quite a few older students from sophomores to seniors who had returned to campus early. Couples walked arm in arm or with waists embraced, their demeanor affectionate. Jiang Yan, with Song Jiawen on his back, walked among them but didn’t stand out at all.
When he was close to the school, he set Song Jiawen down and took the bags from her hands to continue walking forward.
“Jiang Yan?”
Just as the two reached the entrance and were about to step in, they turned around in response to a calling voice and saw Liu Wenhui, Tian Xiaohui, and Dai Lei, who seemed to have just returned from dinner.
Song Jiawen stood to the left of Jiang Yan, and from the right side, the streetlight cast its light, enshrouding her in a shadow.
“Were you out buying stuff?”
Liu Wenhui and the others noticed someone beside him, but they didn’t see her face clearly. Seeing him carrying two big bags full of various items, they casually greeted him while drawing closer.
Only when they got closer did they clearly see the girl standing next to Jiang Yan with a simple ponytail, delicate features, and a cool temperament. Even under the dim streetlights, her skin still glowed white.
Liu Wenhui’s eyes shone brightly; such stunning beauty was unparalleled in the whole Beijing University!
Tian Xiaohui and Dai Lei also saw Song Jiawen, a hint of amazement flickering in their eyes. However, they were rather green and only glanced once before quickly shifting their gaze, coughing lightly to disguise the heartbeat that had just quickened for a moment.
Unlike Liu Wenhui, who stared openly and undisguised.
Jiang Yan’s face darkened as he coldly glanced toward Liu Wenhui.
Dai Lei sensed the awkward atmosphere and pulled Liu Wenhui aside. By then, Jiang Yan had already turned back, not greeting the three, and directly led Song Jiawen into the school.
“Jiang Yan’s girlfriend?”
Seeing the two walk away, Liu Wenhui turned and asked Tian Xiaohui and Dai Lei.
They shook their heads; it was also their first time seeing her, so how could they know? But judging by the way the two walked side by side, they guessed the chances were high.
Liu Wenhui was very disappointed. Why were all the good-looking girls already taken these days?
Looking around today, probably because they had just graduated from high school, the freshmen girls one by one looked foolish and clueless, hardly any sparkling with vivacity.
Not to mention a girl like the one just now with Jiang Yan, whether it was her features, skin, or temperament, all were rare and outstanding.
There were some nice ones among the sophomores and juniors, but those girls came across as quite experienced in love affairs, and who knew how many boyfriends they’d had before.

Picking up someone else’s leftovers was not a habit Liu Wenhui was fond of.
His mind uncontrollably revisited Song Jiawen’s face… if she had been Tian Xiaohui or Dai Lei’s girlfriend, he would have stolen her without a second thought.
But Jiang Yan…
Although this guy looked several years younger, his demeanor was even more streetwise than him. The way he smoked that afternoon spoke of someone who hadn’t just learned but was extremely adept.
He was a high school graduate who had worked in society for two years before returning to retake exams, and he inevitably carried a certain roughness that high school graduates did not possess. So, Tian Xiaohui and Dai Lei were clearly a bit afraid of him.
But he could feel that Jiang Yan was not.
…
Elsewhere, Jiang Yan first took Song Jiawen to the entrance of the girls’ dormitory. Then, he handed her one of the bags and said, “Get to know your roommates tomorrow, have meals together, and explore the school. If they’re busy or going out with their families, come find us at Xinyu.”
Song Jiawen asked, “Do we still need to rent a storefront?”
“Finding a storefront isn’t that easy; haven’t you noticed? Along the way here, everything is fully occupied, no vacancies,” he replied.
“So why do I get the impression you’ll be busy starting tomorrow?”
“You can’t just idle away, gotta check out the market, need to look at the computer specs here, and who knows if I can sell a few before school starts. Alright, stop worrying about it, you’ve just started college, so just enjoy yourself for a few days.”
There wasn’t much Song Jiawen could actually help with regarding the things he mentioned, so all she could say was, “If you come across a suitable storefront to rent, I still have tens of thousands here.”
“Got it, go on in.”
Watching Song Jiawen enter the dormitory building, Jiang Yan then turned and walked away.
At this moment, there was no one in dorm room 303. Liang Yujun and the others were still out strolling with their parents, and by the time they returned, it was already close to ten o’clock.
Song Jiawen had already washed up and was lying in bed. Seeing the three girls enter the room, she rolled over to sit up and reminded, “The dorm auntie said the hot water will stop at 10:30, you guys better hurry up and take a shower.”
The three girls were startled, then immediately began wailing.
Liang Yujun was the quickest to act, taking off her glasses in one swift motion and tossing them on the table, slipping into her slippers, and grabbing a basin from the rack, she ran toward the bathroom, “I’ll be out in at most ten minutes, you two get ready.”
Sha Yali accidentally bumped into the hot water bottle, the heaviness surprised her, and upon picking it up, she saw it was full of hot water.
She turned to look at Song Jiawen, “Song Jiawen, did you fill up the hot water for us?”
“Mhm.”
Ding Yuanyuan also checked her hot water bottle, which was likewise filled to the brim. With a lively personality and a round face that featured two dimples when she smiled, she gave Song Jiawen a sweet smile at this moment, “Thank you, dear.”
Liang Yujun did as she said, and after ten minutes she emerged from the bathroom, followed by a flustered Sha Yali and Ding Yuanyuan who successively finished showering just as the hot water ran out.
Because they were rushing, they all broke out in a sweat again.
Sha Yali looked incredulously at the air conditioner hanging on the wall, her face full of confusion, “We have an air conditioner but no remote control, does the school install these just for show?”
The other three girls didn’t understand either, of course the ins and outs of the school were not something three freshmen could grasp.
Fortunately, by the end of August, Beijing had already passed the hottest time of the year. With the windows open, it didn’t take long for a bit of cool air to enter the dorm room.
With the excitement of starting school, the girls chatted and giggled in bed after lights out.
Compared to the lively atmosphere in the girls’ dormitory, room 303 of building number four, the boys’ dormitory, room 501 of building number eight, felt somewhat tense and confrontational.
Jiang Yan returned to his dorm first, washed up quickly, and fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed.
However, he was suddenly woken up by a loud “bang,” followed by a shake of his bed.
Jiang Yan opened his groggy eyes and turned to look.
The bed opposite him belonged to Dai Lei, who seemed to have just gone to bed. He was now sitting up, frowning with a look of endurance and dissatisfaction toward the diagonally opposite side.
Liu Wenhui, who shared the bunk next to Jiang Yan, was living on the diagonally opposite bunk to Dai Lei.
Jiang Yan’s mind cleared a bit, and he suddenly sat up in bed, looked down at Liu Wenhui sitting cross-legged at the desk and smiling at him, “Sorry, I accidentally bumped your desk just now, did I wake you up?”
Jiang Yan sneered, “Accidentally? Which foot was it, accidentally? Do you need me to straighten it out for you? Maybe after that, you’ll learn some manners.”
Liu Wenhui was taken aback, apparently not expecting Jiang Yan to be so confrontational.
More directly, Jiang Yan lifted his long legs and jumped down from the over one-meter high bed, leisurely putting on his slippers.
“Liu Wenhui, the school prohibits fighting, but if you’re itching for it, I’ll go with you off campus.”
