5: Chapter 5 Chapter 004: Barbecue Beauty 5: Chapter 5 Chapter 004: Barbecue Beauty Watching Feng Zhi Xiao close the door, Ye Chen couldn’t help but smile.
Although Feng Zhi Xiao didn’t have much to boast about in terms of accomplishnt, she was not lacking in ambition and had always been diligent.
While each person’s ideals may differ, their goals in striving for them was consistent, and that was sothing Ye Chen firmly believed in!
For instance, so people dream of both love and career success, but Feng Zhi Xiao’s dream was to make a fortune and woo beautiful won!
Both were pursued with the sa vigor.
Ye Chen’s smile grew.
He knew that Feng Zhi Xiao was just one among the billions of people in the Heavenly Dynasty, her ideals common to all, regardless of whether you were from the grassroots or the social elite.
Nearly everyone’s efforts aid at the sa thing.
After tidying up a bit, following the morning’s bout with Yao Yue and the interview tests at Tianya Group, Ye Chen was exhausted.
He secured the doors and windows and fell asleep on his bed.
For the ti being, the Xin Hai District was definitely the safest place, and Yao Yue wouldn’t imagine in a million years that Ye Chen had actually fled back there.
Ye Chen was soone who took things as they ca, unfazed by anything, even if the sky were to fall.
He slept until past six in the evening, waking up feeling groggy and light-headed.
“I overslept!” Ye Chen shook his head, went into the bathroom to freshen up, threw on so clothes, and decided to go downstairs to grab sothing to eat.
At this ti, he figured Yao Yue would have already left Jianghuai City.
She probably assud he had left as well.
Jianghuai City was a coastal city that, even in the scorching heat of sumr, did not get too hot.
Night had just fallen, and food stalls and barbecues had already crowded so streets, along with those selling small trinkets…
Xin Hai District was close to Jianghuai University.
Around the university gates, the atmosphere was lively.
In September, the university had already started its term, with freshn in military training and other students attending classes.
It was the end of class ti and naturally, the area was bustling.
“Student, Adidas sneakers, smuggled genuine products, want so?”
“Genuine Nike, absolutely authentic!”
“Selling second-hand computers, like new, clearing stock!”
Various hawkers were shouting all around, and upon seeing Ye Chen, they eagerly approached him, whether it was the barbecue vendors looking for custors or those selling ‘smuggled’ Adidas, they all contributed to the beautiful scenery around the university gates.
Ye Chen walked straight to a lively barbecue stall and sat in a vacant spot.
The stall was run by a mother and daughter team.
While it wasn’t very large, their barbecue was tastier than others, at least the ingredients were fresh and they didn’t resort to deceit like others did, using expired ingredients for consumption.
Grabbing a beer at this barbecue stall and eating a few grilled fish balls had beco a habit for Ye Chen during his half-year stay in Jianghuai City.
It wasn’t that the stall owner’s daughter was a ravishing beauty, rather he felt an inexplicable affection for this place.
“Brother Chen, you’re here!” A pure and lovely girl greeted him promptly when she saw Ye Chen sit down.
“Hm!” Ye Chen nodded and smiled back at her, saying, “You’re busy, no need to fuss over !”
“How can I not!” The girl quickly put down what she was doing and sat down beside Ye Chen, saying cheerfully, “Brother Chen is a VIP here, how can I neglect you?
Tell , what would you like to eat today?
It’s on !”
“Oh?” Ye Chen was surprised, smiling, “What’s the occasion?
Little missy, good news?”
“Hehe, Brother Chen, can you guess?” The girl hurriedly poured Ye Chen a mug of beer and then sat opposite him, resting her chin in her hands.
“Well, this definitely calls for a good guess!” Ye Chen chuckled, “Could it be that today you found two bucks on the ground and handed it to a police officer and got praised for it?”
Pfft…
The girl giggled, her charm blossoming.
She rolled her eyes at Ye Chen and responded petulantly, “Brother Chen, you’re so an, making fun of Momo!”
“Haha, or could it be that Momo has found the man of her dreams?” Ye Chen laughed heartily.
“Humph, no way!” Liu Momo gave Ye Chen a stern look, “I’ll have you know, I’ve officially been accepted into Jianghuai University, hehe, and I’ve already enrolled!”
Ye Chen was taken aback, looking at the delightful young girl, a wave of emotion washed over him.
Sigh, little girl, why must you?
The extent of our fate ends here, yet she won’t move beyond this.
In fact, with Liu Momo’s scores, she could have been accepted to any of the key universities in Beijing, yet this girl had her heart set on Ye Chen and refused to go, preferring to attend a local school with her high grades.
This sincere act moved Ye Chen deeply.
However, moved as he was, this decision carried significant flaws.
Setting aside the fact that he was being hunted down, Ye Chen felt like himself a piece of driftwood, tossed about by the waves, with no one knowing his final destination.
Jianghuai City was rely a temporary stopping point, and perhaps at any mont he would choose to leave.
It might be a month, or it might be a year and a half.
Ye Chen always felt there were things in his mind calling out to him – perhaps it was his origins or perhaps sothing else altogether that plagued him…
