Chapter 2689

~8 min read 1,463 words

With just one glance, Ye Chen recognized Lin Wan'er!

Even though Ye Chen had only seen her once, and even though Lin Wan'er had changed her attire and style, Ye Chen recognized her at a glance.

This was because, for such a long time, Lin Wan'er's shadow had been constantly lingering in his mind.

Ye Chen had never had such a strong memory of any woman he had only met once; Lin Wan'er was the first.

Although Lin Wan'er's appearance was stunning enough to make one doubt its authenticity, that was really not the reason Ye Chen could remember her.

The reason Ye Chen could remember her was that Ye Chen had once regretted it very much, regretted that he hadn't asked Lin Wan'er clearly about her and the Anti-Qing Society's origins, as well as all the information she knew about the Anti-Qing Society, when he was in Northern Europe.

Besides that, there was another reason Ye Chen couldn't stop thinking about Lin Wan'er, and that was the ring that was jumping wildly in his pocket!

Whenever he was drained of a large amount of Qi by that ring, Ye Chen's heart would uncontrollably think of Lin Wan'er.

And whenever that annoying ring jumped around in his pocket, he would also subconsciously think of Lin Wan'er.

However, he had never thought that he would be able to see Lin Wan'er again!

And he couldn't even dream that Lin Wan'er, who should have been fleeing for her life, would actually come to Jin Ling! And would suddenly appear at the door of Claudia's dormitory!

It was also at this moment that, besides being horrified and bewildered, Ye Chen suddenly became vigilant!

He couldn't help but suspect that the reason Lin Wan'er appeared here was that she was coming for him!

If that were the case, it would mean that the psychological suggestion he had used on her with his Qi that day hadn't worked!

Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence in this world that a girl whose memory had been wiped by him before parting in Northern Europe could suddenly appear in Jin Ling, thousands of miles away, and appear in front of him without remembering him at all?

Although Lin Wan'er didn't show any ripples on the surface at this time, she was also extremely nervous in her heart.

She knew that as long as she appeared in front of Ye Chen, Ye Chen would definitely suspect her. In order not to show any flaws, she used the acting skills she had rehearsed countless times and smiled again, asking, "May I ask if this is dormitory 301?"

Before Ye Chen could speak, Li Xiaofen on the side had already said very enthusiastically, "That's right, this is dormitory 301. It's written on the door. Do you live in this dorm too?"

Lin Wan'er didn't look at Ye Chen again but looked at Li Xiaofen, smiling shyly, "I did see the room number on the dorm, but I saw there were many people inside, so I wanted to confirm again."

Li Xiaofen hurriedly asked her, "Then you must be the student in bed 02, right?"

Lin Wan'er nodded and asked her, "Then are you the roommate in bed 01?"

"I'm not." Li Xiaofen waved her hand, pointed at Claudia who was with Auntie Li, and said, "This is the student in bed 01."

After saying that, she looked at Claudia and said with a smile, "Claudia, your new roommate is here!"

Lin Wan'er saw Claudia, nodded at her in a friendly way, and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Lin Xiaowan, a freshman in the Archaeology Department. We'll be roommates from now on!"

Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this. He knew Lin Wan'er was lying at this time, so he looked at Lin Wan'er with burning eyes, wanting to see some subtle changes in her expression.

Lin Wan'er had long expected that whether she met Ye Chen directly today or met Claudia first and then met Ye Chen through Claudia later, as long as she introduced herself in front of Ye Chen, this would definitely happen. So, from the moment she decided to come to Jin Ling University to study, she had been practicing in front of the mirror, practicing the composure to have no flaws in her expression when she lied.

Therefore, even though she was being stared at by Ye Chen like this, she remained calm and composed, and a polite and reserved smile always hung on her face.

Claudia asked in surprise at this time, "You are also in the Archaeology Department?"

"Yes!" Lin Wan'er nodded and asked curiously, "Are you too?"

Claudia nodded and said, "I am..."

Lin Wan'er smiled, "That's such a coincidence! We are both international students, we both speak Chinese, and we are both in the Archaeology Department!"

Claudia also felt it was incredible and said seriously, "They said that not many people signed up for the Archaeology Department, especially not many girls. I was prepared to be the only girl among the freshmen this year. I didn't expect to meet a female classmate in the same major!"

Li Xiaofen on the side said with a smile, "The key is that you two were assigned to the same dormitory. This is really fate!"

"Yes!" Auntie Li also said with a smile, "In that case, you two really have fate!"

Claudia only then remembered to introduce herself to Lin Wan'er, "Hello, my name is Claudia, Claudia Dinosio, a Canadian of Chinese and Italian descent."

Lin Wan'er nodded, reached out to shake her hand, and smiled, "I am a Malaysian Chinese. From now on, we are all classmates in the same dorm. You can just call me Xiaowan."

Li Xiaofen, who was always enthusiastic, saw Lin Wan'er come alone and couldn't help but ask, "Xiaowan, did you come to Jin Ling to register from Malaysia all by yourself?"

Lin Wan'er shook her head and said, "My grandfather also accompanied me to Jin Ling, but since he is old, I didn't let him accompany me here."

Li Xiaofen said, "It just so happens that we plan to go to the cafeteria for lunch at noon to taste the food there. Would you like to join us?"

Lin Wan'er politely declined, "Thank you, but I have to go home at noon. My grandparents are waiting for me at home in Jin Ling. Let's eat together when we have a chance in the future. After all, we have to stay at Jin Ling University for four years."

Li Xiaofen nodded and smiled, "Okay, you can also come to our house to eat with Claudia when you have a chance in the future."

"Okay!" Lin Wan'er nodded and said with a smile, "I will definitely visit when I have a chance in the future!"

Ye Chen stood on the side and didn't say a word from beginning to end. His eyes had been looking at Lin Wan'er, but strangely, he couldn't see any unnaturalness in Lin Wan'er, and she hadn't looked at him either. It seemed like she really didn't know him.

The ring in his pocket was still jumping. It seemed very excited about Lin Wan'er's appearance, which made Ye Chen suddenly think to himself: "The ring must have sensed Lin Wan'er, which is why it has this jumping performance... Before at Jin Ling University, and at Tang Chen Yi Pin, the ring also jumped twice. Could it be that those two times were because Lin Wan'er was nearby? Could it be that she has been monitoring me?"

Thinking of this, Ye Chen became even more vigilant in his heart. He felt that he must find an opportunity to figure out what was going on with this Lin Wan'er.

At this time, Claudia, Li Xiaofen, and Auntie Li were all saying goodbye to Lin Wan'er, preparing to leave the dorm and head to the cafeteria.

Ye Chen suppressed the doubts in his heart for the time being and left the dorm with the three of them.

Walking downstairs, the ring in Ye Chen's pocket gradually returned to calm, and Li Xiaofen couldn't help but sigh at this time, "That Lin Xiaowan, is she too beautiful? I have never seen such a beautiful Asian woman..."

"Yes..." Claudia also agreed very much and said, "Such a beautiful girl is indeed very rare."

Li Xiaofen asked Ye Chen, "Brother Ye Chen, what do you think?"

Ye Chen had been thinking about how to verify whether Lin Wan'er was deliberately approaching him.

So, he pretended to have suddenly thought of something and blurted out, "Oh no, I think I left my car keys in Claudia's dorm. You guys go to the cafeteria first, I'll go back and look for them!"
