Chapter 305: Watching Wen Leyu: She Is Envious of Me!

At the end of November, the temperature in the North China region would punctually fall below zero. The days of clear autumn weather were over, and everyone took out their winter attire—old cotton-padded jackets, military overcoats—wrapping themselves into little potatoes and big earth melons.

Li Ye in Dormitory 209 was definitely a fashionista, equipped with a full set of woolen overcoats, leather boots, scarves, and leather hats.

But when he took out his sweater and put it on, he was teased by the brothers in the dormitory.

"Brother One, you have style from head to toe, but this sweater... hehehehe~, it's not as good-looking as my little cotton jacket!"

"That is, something that looks good but is useless. Ten layers of thread are not as good as one layer of cotton. No foreign goods are as good as old cotton jackets... and this one of yours doesn't even look good."

This sweater of Li Ye's was knitted by Watching Wen Leyu during the New Year last year. The stitches were uneven, the patterns were not smooth, and the two sleeves were asymmetrical, full of abstract artistic flavor.

Well, teasing is one of the artistic behaviors.

However, Li Ye didn't care about the teasing of Chen Sihai and Wu Runfu, and deliberately turned around in front of the mirror to show off.

"Handsome, double handsome."

"Beautiful, really narcissistic."

Two bad friends praised Li Ye and compared their cotton jackets with Li Ye's.

But Sun Xianjin jumped out of bed and said with disdain, "What do you know? Do you think what Brother One is wearing is a sweater? That is 'full of affection.' Do you two single dogs have that blessing?"

"Damn Old Six, you don't have it either. Did that tall girl let you hold hands? Li Ye takes a stroll by Weiming Lake every night, what did you do every night?"

"That is, wearing high heels is as tall as the girl. You can't walk together when strolling. One walks fast and one walks slow."

Two roommates were stunned for a second and scolded in unison, not even caring about the fact that scolding people doesn't reveal shortcomings.

Who let Sun Xianjin use words like "single dog" on them? The insult was too strong.

Bian Jingjing is taller than Sun Xianjin, and the lethality of saying it is equally amazing.

But Sun Xianjin was not angry at all this time, but triumphantly pulled a wool vest from the quilt.

The patterns were also uneven and the stitches were uneven, only slightly better than the one on Li Ye's body.

"Look? Look!"

Sun Xianjin held the wool vest as if he were holding a rare treasure, shaking it back and forth in front of several roommates, making everyone speechless.

Boys who are loved are so hateful.

And this is not the end. Li Ye immediately took out a brand new sweater from his leather suitcase.

"Look, look at all of you. My old one hasn't been worn out yet, and the new one has already been knitted for me. Are you envious? Are you jealous?"

Critical hit, double portion.

"Sigh~"

Wu Runfu sighed and muttered, "Sihai, did we choose the wrong major? How come both of them in the Economics Department have objects, and the four of us in the Mathematics Department are all bachelors?"

"This has nothing to do with the major, it's a matter of your attitude."

Li Ye taught them with the attitude of a person who has come before, "If you hope to have a romantic love, you must strive for it. You can't always stand in place and wait for girls to favor you."

"Sihai, Runfu, you haven't been to the dance party for a while, right? You didn't go to the freshman welcome party either, right?"

"Of course, if you are dedicated to learning and serving the country, then it is my pattern that is small. Please accept my sincere respect and admiration."

"Stop talking about any dance party," Chen Sihai said depressedly, "We go to the dance party just to make up the numbers. The girls at the dance party always stare at the few boys, and they can't see us at all."

Chen Sihai's words made Li Ye somewhat surprised and somewhat melancholy.

Once upon a time, wasn't he also that kind of "person who makes up the numbers"? Eighty percent of girls will indeed be attracted by ten percent of boys.

But girls in 1983 should be okay, right? As long as boys pursue them sincerely, most of them won't have a heart of iron.

"Li Ye, Li Ye, come down quickly, the teacher is calling you!"

An urgent shout suddenly came from downstairs.

Li Ye opened the window and saw it was his former debate team teammate Yang Chen.

He asked loudly, "What's the matter?"

Yang Chen said urgently, "I don't know. They called us to go over immediately. You hurry up."

"Oh, I'll be down immediately."

Li Ye put on his coat and went out downstairs, feeling a bit confused.

The debate competition ended two weeks ago, and after the debate competition ended, the debate team disbanded. How come they are calling him over now?

When he arrived at the activity room, he found that several teachers from the school had come, and the other teammates of the school debate team had already arrived. Looking at their faces, they should also not know what happened.

"Everyone is here, so let's make a long story short and announce a few things."

A director surnamed Liu announced, "The first thing is, on Saturday night this week, the First TV Station will broadcast the highlights of the debate. Everyone can send telegrams to notify their families to see your style on TV."

Yang Chen and others were surprised. They could finally be on TV.

Being on TV in this era is an incomparably glorious thing. If family members can see their figures on TV, I don't know how proud they can be.

But before everyone was excited, Director Liu took out a piece of paper and raised it, saying, "The second thing is, we have received a formal invitation from the Singapore Broadcasting Bureau to go to Singapore in March next year to participate in the First Asian University Debate."

"Boom~"

Although there were only a dozen people on the scene, the sudden noise was like thunder.

"Go to Singapore? We are actually going to Singapore?"

"Why is it us? Shouldn't it be Shanghai First University?"

"That's because people's eyes are bright. We are the uncrowned kings."

Li Ye was also somewhat surprised, because Wu Jinyuan had revealed some information that a mainland university might be invited to Singapore to participate in the competition, and Yang Chen and others had expectations.

But in the First National University Debate Competition not long ago, Jingbei University lost.

Half a month ago, the Jingbei University debate team finally met with Shanghai First University in the final, launching an intense and wonderful debate.

At that time, the Jingbei University debate team occupied the advantages of "time and place," and the debate process also caused cheers from everyone on the scene, but in the end, after a wonderful battle, they ranked second with a very small gap.

Although almost everyone thought after the game that the defeat of the Jingbei University debate team was "not a crime of war," some people also "regrettably" thought that the failure of Jingbei University lay in Li Ye, this flaw.

Because the debate topic of the final was "The pursuit of money and the pursuit of morality can be unified," Jingbei University drew the negative side, so it was "The pursuit of money and the pursuit of morality cannot be unified."

Originally, everyone debated back and forth, but at the critical moment, the positive side threw a heavy bomb, pointing directly at the third speaker of the positive side, Li Ye, who had actually obtained at least 30,000 or more in manuscript fees in just two years.

Then may I ask Mr. Seven-Inch Blade, did you pursue money and abandon morality?

Although Li Ye was prepared, he had to admit that the level of the Shanghai First University debate team was very high, grabbing one point and chasing it, successfully using the explosion point of "30,000 manuscript fees" to attract the interest of others on the scene.

Li Ye felt that 30,000 or 50,000 was nothing, but others didn't think so.

Even the judges didn't have 30,000 yuan in their pockets!

No matter how you debate, Li Ye, you are a little local tyrant who is out of touch with the masses. Don't tell me about any morality.

No martial arts, purely no martial arts. Li Ye, who has always liked to trip people up, met a strong opponent who didn't talk about martial arts, and could only regretfully sigh, "The world has reincarnation, heaven forgives whom."

But now the situation has turned around, and in the end, Jingbei University still obtained the invitation qualification, which is really responding to the sentence "the world is impermanent."

"The third thing..."

Director Liu was silent for a few seconds and said again, "The National University of Singapore intends to carry out an exchange student program with our school. It is expected that there will be ten places next year. Who of you intends to apply?"

Everyone looked at Director Liu in surprise, feeling both surprised and entangled in their hearts.

What is surprising is that what Wu Jinyuan promised at the beginning has all been realized.

What is entangled is, in front of so many people, publicly applying for study abroad places, does it seem too urgent?

Li Ye was somewhat surprised.

Because places for studying abroad are decided by the school after comprehensive consideration, right? How come they are asking for everyone's opinions? And they are going to study abroad next year. What is the rush now?

But Director Liu asked next, "Li Ye, are you going to apply?"

Li Ye shook his head and said, "I don't have any plans to study abroad now!"

Director Liu nodded and asked others, "What about you?"

For some reason, Li Ye felt that Director Liu seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief just now.

The remaining three people, Yang Chen and Qin Yongcheng, both expressed "obeying the school's arrangements," and only another Guan Tingzhong clearly expressed his willingness to study abroad and serve the country.

After the announcement, Li Ye didn't have the joy of other teammates, still going to class and leaving class as if nothing had happened.

For Li Ye now, it is not difficult for him to study abroad at all, and the colorful world overseas does not have much attraction for him.

However, after class, Watching Wen Leyu told him one thing.

"My mother told me yesterday that among the study abroad places this time, two were specifically designated by Singapore for your debate team."

Li Ye immediately understood the origin of the matter.

There are four people in the debate team, and there are two places, so the results will definitely be announced by March next year.

If all four people apply, but only two leave in the end, will it affect the cooperation between the teams at the debate meeting next year?

And Li Ye's withdrawal greatly reduced this hidden danger. As long as one of the other three is solved, it will be foolproof.

Watching Wen Leyu touched Li Ye, "Eh, what are you thinking about?"

Li Ye said, "I am thinking, do you have any intention of studying abroad? If you have..."

Watching Wen Leyu said without thinking, "I will go wherever you go. You don't go to Singapore, what am I doing there by myself?"

Seeing Li Ye looking at her and "silly laughing," Watching Wen Leyu also pursed her lips with a smile.

However, she suddenly discovered something, pulled Li Ye's collar with one hand, and then was full of displeasure.

"Where is the new sweater I knitted for you? Why are you still wearing this broken one? You hurry up and change it down, I will take it apart and knit a new one for you to wear in rotation."

"This can't be taken apart!"

Li Ye covered his collar, grabbed Watching Wen Leyu's little hand in his hand, and then said, "Although this sweater is not as good as the new one you knitted, it is a sweet witness."

Watching Wen Leyu: "..."

Li Ye said, "Do you think I am sentimental? Then I ask you, you spent a month knitting this first sweater, right?"

Watching Wen Leyu stretched out two fingers very embarrassedly, not knowing whether she meant she spent two months or knitted it twice.

Li Ye smiled and said, "Look, according to the principle of economics, the value of an item is directly related to labor value. Can the sweater knitted in two months be the same as the one knitted in two weeks?"

Watching Wen Leyu's eyes were very big, staring at Li Ye's eyes, as if distinguishing whether he was lying.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Watching Wen Leyu was sure that Li Ye really liked this sweater that was uncomfortable to wear.

"Let's go, go eat. Today I will make you a stir-fried pork, just learned from my mother."

Watching Wen Leyu walked forward happily. At this time, she felt very happy.

However, Mu Yunning, who came face to face, swept away her good mood.

Mu Yunning lost a lot of weight and spoke much more directly.

She didn't care about Watching Wen Leyu being by her side and asked Li Ye directly, "Director Liu called me just now and rejected the list of international students I suggested, saying that you have already refused to study in Singapore? Can you tell me why?"

Li Ye was stunned for a moment, not expecting that his class teacher Mu Yunning actually applied for a study abroad place for him.

"Thank you for your kindness, Teacher Mu, but I have a lot of things at home and really can't get away."

Mu Yunning was surprised and couldn't speak for a long time, and finally her eyes fell on Watching Wen Leyu.

Li Ye hurriedly explained, "Teacher Mu, don't misunderstand, this is my own decision, it has nothing to do with others..."

Li Ye knew Watching Wen Leyu's temper. Don't look at Mu Yunning as a teacher, but she dares to confront anyone when she is angry.

But Mu Yunning nodded and said, "That's fine, studying abroad may not be the best choice."

Li Ye didn't quite understand, but Mu Yunning had already turned and left.

Watching Wen Leyu leaned over and whispered, "She is envious of me!"

"What? Envious of you?"

"Yes! That classmate of Teacher Mu didn't care about anything for the sake of studying abroad, which pitted her miserably."

"And you abandoned the study abroad place for me. Can she not be envious?"

Sister, this idea of yours... is not outrageous. I really like you very much.

However, what Li Ye said just now was also the truth. He really had a lot of things at home waiting to be dealt with.

It was only two days later that A-Qiang and Director Xiong from the Chang'an Film Studio came together.

Director Xiong was busy assembling a set of armor, and A-Qiang, who was full of exhaustion, sat on the chair and said weakly, "Mr. Li, can you tell my boss not to let me be the deputy minister of the investment department? I really can't do it!"

Li Ye shook his head, "I think you should discuss this with Ms. Pan Xiaoqing first."

After A-Qiang came to the mainland this time, the layer of window paper between him and Pan Xiaoqing was completely torn off. They appeared in public together, and even the father-in-law didn't stop them, which was like a young couple's style.

A-Qiang only considered it for two seconds before cheering up and sitting up.

"Forget it, pretend I didn't say it."

Some people are willing to fall into the gentle village for the sake of a girl, but some people have to work like a donkey to improve their life value for the sake of a girl.

Is it tiring? ===== CHAPTER 306 =====
