Chapter 339: Chapter 339: Elegance and Vulgarity
Zhang Xiaoi and Guan Xiaotong hurried over.
Excited, Zhang Dagou hugged Zhang Xiaoi vigorously, causing a stitch from his recent wound to burst open. The pain made Zhang Dagou howl, “Ouch, it kills .”
“What’s wrong? Where does it hurt?!” Zhang Xiaoi asked urgently.
“The stitch I just had— it burst,” Zhang Dagou howled.
“Then no hugs,” Zhang Xiaoi said, anxious, but after calming down, she scolded angrily, “You bastard, why didn’t you tell earlier? Do you know how worried I was just now?”
“But I’m all right, aren’t I?” Zhang Dagou said with a hehehe laugh.
“If sothing had happened to you, who would I go to?” Zhang Xiaoi glared at him.
“Hehehe…” Zhang Dagou chuckled, “Anyway, you’re still young, you could always remarry.”
“Hmph, you speak as if I married you!” Zhang Xiaoi snorted coldly, “If sothing happened to you, I’d just go marry so handso guy.”
Guan Xiaotong, who was standing to the side, looked at Xiao Han with concern and asked, “Xiao Han, are… are you all right?”
“Oh, I’m fine!” Xiao Han shook his head.
Liu Bin had been asking Guan Xiaotong how she was feeling the whole ti, “Xiaotong, what are you doing here? Aren’t you cold? It’s cooled down tonight.”
“Just now, when Xiao i told about your situation, I ca to check on you,” Guan Xiaotong said softly, then added, “I was afraid sothing might happen to you. But, did you really… really go and fight with others?”
“Of course!” Liu Bin hurriedly replied, “The four of us beat them up until they were crawling on the ground.”
“Why fight? Isn’t there a better way to solve problems than fighting?” Guan Xiaotong frowned.
“Er…” Liu Bin had wanted to show off his manliness, but he imdiately sensed that Guan Xiaotong didn’t seem to like n who engaged in violence. He quickly said, “Actually, I didn’t fight much, it was just them hacking and slashing in the front. I was always trying to diate, hoping we could sit down and talk it out, but they wouldn’t listen to . I could only assist from behind and hardly lifted a finger. See, I didn’t get many stitches.”
Zhang Feng laughed and said, “When we’re bullied to this extent, we definitely can’t tolerate it.”
“Right!” Zhang Dagou nodded, “But, this ti it was satisfying. We actually had a fight with people from Dao ng and even stord into Dao ng’s headquarters. Hehe, that’s sothing I never dared imagine in my lifeti!”
“My god, you… you actually stord into Dao ng’s headquarters?” Guan Xiaotong exclaid in shock.
Guan Xiaotong worked in a nightclub, specifically at an Entertainnt Club. She was naturally very familiar with the powers within the provincial city. Da Fuhao Entertainnt Club was the headquarters of Dao ng. She was very clear about this, and she knew what Dao ng represented in the provincial city.
“Yeah!” Zhang Dagou nodded. He laughed and said, “Xiao Han is amazing, not only did he defeat Dao ng’s Monkey King, but he also beat White Tiger, the second-ranked expert in Dao ng!”
“My God!” Guan Xiaotong covered her mouth in shock as she looked at Xiao Han, her voice trembling as she asked, “Xiao Han, is… is this true?”
“It was just a trick,” Xiao Han said with a smile.
“You’re so amazing!” Guan Xiaotong imdiately looked at Xiao Han with admiration, “You actually defeated a top expert from Dao ng!”
“That’s nothing!” Zhang Feng said with a grin, “Three days from now, Xiao Han will fight with King Kong, Dao ng’s top expert. Hehe, that will be the main event.”
“That’s not the coolest part!” Zhang Dagou shook his head, “The coolest was Xiao Han fighting nearly forty of Dao ng’s n all by himself. It’s a pity I didn’t see it; I can imagine the scene must have been very heroic.”
Stars nearly sparkled in Guan Xiaotong’s eyes.
Liu Bin hurriedly interjected, “Hey, I helped too. When we were storming up from Da Fuhao Entertainnt Club, I was right behind Xiao Han, chopping down several guys myself.”
Guan Xiaotong ignored Liu Bin’s words and continued to admire Xiao Han, “Xiao Han, how can you be so incredible!”
“Xiaotong, I’m quite amazing too!” Liu Bin quickly added.
“Mm, you’re great too!” Guan Xiaotong nodded.
Although it was just a perfunctory comnt, it made Liu Bin internally delighted.
“Let’s go to the dormitory first!” Xiao Han replied.
“Let’s go, all together!” Zhang Dagou said with a cheery laugh.
“How could we get in?” Zhang Xiaoi shook her head, “Better not to go.”
“It’s okay, just wear our clothes, the manager won’t recognize you,” Zhang Dagou smirked.
Zhang Xiaoi turned to Guan Xiaotong and asked, “Shall we go?”
“Let’s go!” Liu Bin quickly said, “Co sit in the dormitory; you’ve never been there.”
“Alright then!” Guan Xiaotong blushed.
The group imdiately walked towards the campus.
Zhang Xiaoi wrapped in Zhang Dagou’s clothes and Guan Xiaotong wearing Xiao Han’s jacket easily fooled the dorm manager’s eyes and smoothly entered the dormitory.
The dormitory for the four was spacious enough, but it was a complete ss inside. Liu Bin’s clothes were scattered all over, and several pairs of slly socks had accumulated.
“Whose slly socks!” Zhang Xiaoi complained, pinching her nose.
“Mine, mine!” Liu Bin hurriedly threw the slly socks into a bin.
“Whose slly shoes are these, thrown here!” Zhang Xiaoi cursed.
“Mine, mine!” Liu Bin quickly gathered his shoes and put them in the washroom.
In the room, each person had their own separate space. Each had their own bed and desk. Liu Bin’s desk was the ssiest, cluttered with all sorts of things, computer wires tangled everywhere. There were leftover drinks, and used tissues. Next in line was Zhang Dagou.
Among the four, Xiao Han’s desk was the neatest, with many books arranged tidily. The bed was also neat and clean. Under the bed were several pairs of shoes, sneakers, casual leather shoes, and even a pair of leather boots. It was clear that he was soone who liked cleanliness.
Guan Xiaotong sat down in front of Xiao Han’s desk, curiously surveying his collection of books. The books a person reads can, to so extent, reflect their character. To her surprise, most of the books on the desk and shelf were English editions.
“Xiao Han, can you understand all these?” Guan Xiaotong asked in amazent.
“Yeah!” Xiao Han nodded, then filled a cup with hot water from his own and offered it to Guan Xiaotong, saying, “It’s cold outside, have so hot water.”
“Thank you!” Guan Xiaotong’s face turned slightly red, and she held the cup with both hands. Deep down, she felt extrely touched, touched that Xiao Han didn’t look down on her and even used his own cup to serve her.
“You’re welco,” Xiao Han said with a smile.
After Zhang Xiaoi ca in, she started to help Zhang Dagou tidy his bed and desk.
Liu Bin also kept himself busy; only after entering did he realize that his area was the ssiest in the dorm. Dirty clothes piled up, and the desk was in disarray. It took so effort to tidy up, and although it wasn’t very neat, at least it was now presentable.
“Sorry to make you laugh!” Liu Bin chuckled, “What a ss.”
“It’s only you who are a ss,” Zhang Feng said as he stored his stick away in the wardrobe, wrapped in a black bag.
“Hey, isn’t that how all n are!” Liu Bin grinned and started to laugh.
“Xiao Han is also a man!” Zhang Feng retorted.
“Xiao Han…” Liu Bin pursed his lips, saying helplessly, “This guy may look like a man on the outside, but inside, there’s a woman living in his heart.”
“Haha…” The dormitory was filled with laughter and cheerful chatter.
Xiao Han sat next to Guan Xiaotong who then took a sip of the hot water before picking up a book from Xiao Han’s shelf. It was an English edition of “Confessions” by Rousseau.
“I’ve been reading this book too!” Guan Xiaotong looked up into Xiao Han’s eyes and said, “But I’m reading the Chinese translation.”
“Why would you read this book?” Xiao Han curiously asked.
“Because I am soone who needs to confess,” Guan Xiaotong said softly.
“Uh…” Xiao Han hesitated, then awkwardly said, “Well, it is quite an interesting book. A book with substance.”
“Indeed!” Guan Xiaotong nodded, “Rousseau was a very thoughtful person, and I really like him.”
Hearing this, Xiao Han didn’t continue the conversation, because he felt that Guan Xiaotong always seed a bit insecure around him. Even though he could see she liked him, her fondness carried a deep-seated sense of inferiority that was buried deep in the dirt.
“I like Rousseau a lot too!” Xiao Han nodded, “A truly great thinker.”
“I never imagined we would have this in common!” Guan Xiaotong said, smiling.
At that mont, Liu Bin quickly interjected, “Xiaotong, I actually like reading books too.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Guan Xiaotong was taken aback and curiously asked, “What kind of books do you like to read?”
“Look…” Liu Bin quickly pointed to his bookshelf.
Guan Xiaotong took a serious look and her expression imdiately darkened. On the shelf, there was a stack of thick web novels. Among them were so hot online novels like “My Beauty CEO,” “Arrogant Young Master,” and “Dark Soldier.”
Seeing these books, Guan Xiaotong laughed and said, “It seems you really like to indulge in fantasies.”
“What’s indulging in fantasies?” Liu Bin asked, puzzled.
“It’s called delusional fantasizing!” Zhang Dagou said while flipping through a web novel, “Imrsing oneself in the world of web novels is referred to as indulging in fantasies. Understand?”
“They’re all books,” Liu Bin chuckled.
“Books are of different calibers, so are sophisticated, so are vulgar!” Guan Xiaotong pursed her lips.
“High vulgarity is high sophistication,” Liu Bin laughed, “At least that’s what I believe.”
“Then explain how high vulgarity equates to high sophistication,” Guan Xiaotong asked with a scoff.
“Take ‘My Beauty CEO’ for example,” Liu Bin stood up, “The author has successfully crafted a story of a character born from the grassroots, struggling in a world dominated by the powerful elite. He does not fear power, does not fear dark forces, and with his own strength, he leads a band of brothers on a no-return journey. It gets my blood pumping, and I’m moved by such brotherhood…”
