Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Reputation Spreads in Tsinghua University_1
Zhang Xian’s lips curved into a strange smile at the sight of the young man directing the spearhead at Zhu Yan.
Originally, he didn’t want to stir up any major commotion at Tsinghua University. He planned to protect Zhu Yan for a while then leave without making too much of a fuss. However, so fellows just don’t know when to back down, oh well!
He fixed his gaze on the young man and asked with a smile, "When?"
The young man brightened, asking, "You agree to accept the challenge?"
Zhang Xian asked again, "When?"
The young man said, "Tomorrow afternoon, at the Taekwondo Society. Our president will be waiting for you there."
Zhang Xian nodded and walked away.
Zhu Yan caught up with him, asking: "Brother-in-law, you’re really going to take it? Zhao Fuyuan is pretty tough, he’s the top fighter at Tsinghua University."
Zhang Xian chuckled, "I have already accepted - do you want
to run away now?"
Zhu Yan replied: "But... But that guy is really powerful, I’m worried you won’t be able to beat him."
Zhang Xian chuckled, "Didn’t you say before, brother-in-law is the most formidable? Why do you suddenly lose confidence in your brother-in-law? Honestly, to , that guy is nothing."
Seeing Zhang Xian’s confidence, Zhu Yan felt quite relieved. And since he had already accepted, he couldn’t back down. Even if he lost, it would just be a minor injury.
...
News spread very quickly around the school. The news of Zhang Xian’s one-on-one challenge with Zhao Fuyuan from the Taekwondo Society, spread like wildfire around Tsinghua University.
By the end of school in the afternoon, everyone knew about it.
Nowadays, people never lack for a spectacle; only spectacles are in short supply. The duel between Zhang Xian and Zhao Fuyuan quickly beca a hot topic among the students at Tsinghua University, full of anticipation.
Of course, this involved the relationship between Lin Ruoyi and Zhu Yan. Rumors said Lin Ruoyi and Zhu Yan were both vying for Zhang Xian.
So were happy, so were worried.
When Wang Lei and Fong Chao heard about this, they were so incensed that they could burst.
However, Zhang Xian, the object of Wang Lei and Fong Chao’s grudges, knew nothing about this. Even if he did know, he probably wouldn’t care.
At this mont, he accompanied Zhu Yan on their way ho.
"Hey, brother-in-law, you’re kind of a celebrity at Tsinghua now, how does it feel?" Zhu Yan playfully said, "In the past, people used to fear fa, but now they don’t. You’re considered a marvel at Tsinghua! You’ve only been here for two days and already your na is known all over the school, even overshadowing my popularity as the campus belle."
Zhang Xian chuckled, "It’s nothing, this is just the beginning. After tomorrow, I will beco the dream guy of every girl at Tsinghua."
Zhu Yan gave a disdainful look, "Psh, aren’t you ashad?"
Zhang Xian replied, "This is called confidence, you understand? It’s confidence, so how can you be ashad?"
...
At dusk, in a neighborhood in Yantai City.
Once a taxi ca to a stop, three young n alighted from it with smiles on their faces.
"Damn, riding in a car all day. We finally arrived, so tiring!" Shen Nanshan laughed and headed towards the residential compound.
Gao Longfei took out a small mirror and grinned at his reflection, "Damn, I thought I was handso enough in Tiandu City. But now that I’ve arrived in Yantai, I look even more attractive!"
Xu Lei sneered, "So guys are just so narcissistic. They don’t realize that they’re actually the ugliest."
Gao Longfei looked hurt, "What the hell do you an by that?"
"What?" Xu Lei rolled up his sleeves, "Do you want to pick a fight? Let
tell you, I’ve improved a lot recently. I haven’t t a worthy opponent for a while, so today’s a good ti to practice with you."
Gao Longfei put away his mirror and retorted confidently, "Bring it on! When have I ever been afraid of you, you idiot? I can knock you down in minutes."
Seeing the argunt between Gao Longfei and Xu Lei escalate, Shen Nanshan moved to the side, looking for a good chance to strike from the shadows.
These two had been quarreling the entire way. They didn’t stop even after arriving in Yantai, insisting on having a fight. As soon as they stepped out of the car, they started bickering, ready for a face-off.
"How about we practice a bit?"
Zhang Xian walked up to Gao Longfei and Xu Lei, and asked with a smile, "I’m lonely without worthy opponents too! You two co at
together."
Gao Longfei and Xu Lei shivered and swiftly moved back.
In the eyes of outsiders, they were quite formidable, but their skill was minuscule compared to Zhang Xian. They loved to fight, but they didn’t like getting beaten up.
Shen Nanshan looked at Zhang Xian and chuckled, "Brother-in-law, are you waiting for us?"
"Haha, of course!" Zhang Xian laughed heartily, "Let’s go and grab a bite. Once your sister Zhu Qing appears, I won’t be able to get away!"
Gao Longfei, Xu Lei, and Shen Nanshan all chuckled at the sight of Zhang Xian being afraid of Zhu Qing. However, they didn’t say anything. It seed they were also most afraid of Zhu Qing.
...
On sumr nights, nothing is more popular than street snacks.
Popping open a chilled beer and ordering a few appetizers, shirtless in a bustling place, is indeed a pleasure.
However, by nine in the evening, the streets were already extraordinarily lively, filled with constant shouts. But this wasn’t even the peak ti for late-night snacking. After ten, there would be even more people, making it hard to find a spot.
"Damn, there are so many chicks!" Shen Nanshan exclaid, walking along and whistling, clearly excited.
Gao Longfei kept looking at himself in a mirror, afraid that his hairstyle might get ssed up, ruining his perfect image in the eyes of the beauties.
"Hmm? Isn’t that Du Xinyan?" Zhang Xian suddenly spotted a familiar figure near a food stall. It was Du Xinyan, whom he had t once at Tsinghua University.
The young girl was busy at a stall at that mont.
Xu Lei chuckled and said, "Oh? Brother-in-law, have you taken a liking to this chick?"
Gao Longfei clicked his tongue in surprise, "Brother-in-law’s taste is on point. He can pick out the finest among the crowd at just one glance!"
Shen Nanshan stepped towards the stall, "Let’s go say hi to the girl."
Zhang Xian saw that the three knuckleheads imdiately turned their attention to Du Xinyan and he couldn’t help shaking his head with a bitter smile. That girl was not one to be ssed with, and going over there would only lead to humiliation!
"Hey, beautiful." Shen Nanshan walked up to Du Xinyan, whistled, and grinned, "Feeling tired? Need any help?"
Du Xinyan shot Shen Nanshan a glance, not even bothering to respond.
Seeing that Zhang Xian seed to be with Shen Nanshan, she felt even more disdainful. That guy, as expected, was not reliable. Good thing she managed to get away quickly yesterday, otherwise she would have been harassed.
"Xinyan, the eggplants are done." A woman was busy at the front of the booth.
"Alright." Du Xinyan walked over.
Zhang Xian didn’t know that Du Xinyan was looking down on him. After sitting down at an empty table, he laughed and said, "Miss, bring us a case of beer."
"No!" Du Xinyan responded coldly.
Zhang Xian was annoyed. Apparently, he was here to eat, but this girl was giving him attitude!
The woman noticed that Zhang Xian wasn’t looking happy and imdiately scolded Du Xinyan, "Xinyan, how could you talk like that? The guest wants beer, can’t you just go buy it?"
Du Xinyan felt wronged, "Mom, I..."
Zhang Xian looked at Du Xinyan, then at the woman, sowhat surprised.
Are these two mother and daughter? Does Du Xinyan co here to help after school every day?
"Hey..." Du Xinyan walked over to Zhang Xian and asked, "What kind of beer do you want? I can go buy it for you."
"No need." Zhang Xian waved his hand and looked at Gao Longfei, "Gao Longfei, go to the supermarket across the street and get a case of beer. Let’s have a good drink tonight."
Gao Longfei smiled and walked towards the small supermarket across the street.
When Du Xinyan saw that Zhang Xian didn’t want her to go, she paused for a mont and took out a pen and paper, expressionless, asking, "What would you like to eat?"
Zhang Xian said, "Whatever you think your mom makes best, just order that."
Du Xinyan shot Zhang Xian a look and turned to walk towards the booth.
Xu Lei blinked and laughed, "Brother-in-law, I feel like that woman doesn’t seem to like you. Could it be that you two know each other and have so secret hidden story?"
"Go away..." Zhang Xian glared at Xu Lei and said, "Right now I’m protecting Zhu Yan, a Tsinghua University’s student. That beauty just now is also from Tsinghua."
Shen Nanshan remarked, "Brother-in-law, you’re too cool, hooked up with a beauty in just two days! I was actually thinking about flirting with her, but it seems like there’s no chance now."
Soon, Gao Longfei returned with a case of chilled beer, that sends a cold shiver down your spine.
Du Xinyan also started bringing a lot of food over until the table was full, its fragrant aroma filled the air. Judging by the mouthwatering sll alone, Du’s mother’s cooking skills are quite good, no wonder the business is booming.
"Wow, this tastes great." Gao Longfei took a bite of a chicken leg and marveled, "Looks like we ca to the right place."
Shen Nanshan and Xu Lei also praised Du’s mother’s cooking skills. These days, there were plenty of snack stalls, but only a few could truly deliver in terms of taste.
"Xinyan, you look busy!"
Suddenly, a group of young n walked over, led by Fong Chao.
Du Xinyan was slightly annoyed when she saw Fong Chao again. "Fong, what are you doing here again? You’re not welco here."
Yu Wenhui, Du Xinyan’s mother, also did not like Fong Chao very much. Not because she had a grudge against him, but because she knew he was pursuing her daughter. Now that Du Xinyan was over twenty, she didn’t object to her finding a boyfriend, but at the very least she would want soone decent. She definitely wouldn’t let her daughter be with a useless punk like Fong Chao.
Fong Chao chuckled, "Du Xinyan, I’m here to eat. Do you talk to your custors like that? How can you drive away a custor?"
Du Xinyan said coldly, "Hmph, I don’t want your business."
Fong Chao said, "That’s not up to you."
Just as Du Xinyan was about to retort, a voice suddenly ca from the side, "Yo, isn’t this Fong Chao, the Young Master Fong?"
Fong Chao turned to see who it was and when he saw Zhang Xian, he shuddered slightly. What the hell? Why was this guy here? Could it be that this bastard was trying to pursue Du Xinyan?
It seed like the whole school was buzzing with rumors saying that Zhang Xian was more than just friends with Zhu Yan and Lin Ruoyi. And now, even Du Xinyan was involved?
