Chapter 53: When Does Yujie Have Time?
That night, after returning from the mountain villa team-building, many people couldn't sleep well.
Room 404, Building 5 of the male dormitory.
This is a six-person dormitory, all of whom are Jiang Cheng's classmates.
Dorm monitor Li Minghao is usually the most flirtatious, but today he is unusually gloomy.
Roommate Ma Ze turned over and said, "Old Li, say something—do you really think the Music Department Professor Su might actually be dating Jiang Cheng?"
Li Minghao didn't speak; another bunkmate, Liu Gao yuan, said, "How could that be? One is a student, the other a professor—can a professor date a student? But that kid Jiang Cheng, I'm so jealous—he's usually quiet, then unleashes a big move; seeing him hug Professor Su makes my jealous muscles ache!"
Xu Songsheng, lying on his bed looking at his phone, said with a sour-grapes tone, "What's the big deal about a hug? He's just shameless; if I were as shameless as him, I could hug too. If he really had the ability, let Professor Su be his girlfriend—try it!"
The dorm monitor Li Minghao, who had been silent, said, "You don't really think the usually aloof Music Department Professor Su, who has never had physical contact with any male student, would for no reason allow Jiang Cheng to hug her, do you?"
"Maybe he's just bold or lucky?"
After Li Minghao finished speaking, everyone in the dorm fell silent.
Because it's a fact they don't want to admit, from the way Professor Su looks at Jiang Cheng, they know it's not ordinary.
Although her eyes are cold and reveal little emotion, deep in her pupils there is always a thread of lingering affection—a gaze that would make one smile awake even in a dream.
It truly makes people envious to the point of despair!
In a female dormitory of the Music Department, someone's phone is currently playing a segment of a song.
Only a single measure is repeating, which is the voice of Jiang Cheng singing during the team-building.
"Once I dreamed of wandering the world with a sword."
"I'm really impressed with you—you've already recorded it, so why didn't you record the full version?" a female student complained.
Another female student holding the phone that was playing the song angrily said, "My excited finger accidentally tapped it at the time, and I didn't notice; only after finishing the recording did I realize I had captured just a short segment!"
"Stop listening, go to sleep—look, you've been listening most of the night."
The girl holding the phone said, "No, I haven't had enough—I'll never have enough. Our Music Department has never seen anyone write such a great work! I want to fall asleep to his voice and see him in my dreams!"
When girls get together they love gossiping, and they also love driving— their speed is much faster than that of the male dormitory.
The girl in the bunk next to her immediately chimed in, "What do you want to do with him in your dream?"
The girl with the phone declared confidently, "Of course!"
"I, you win."
Several roommates turned their gazes over, and someone asked, "You like him so much, why don't you pursue him? You haven't even left any contact information, right?"
The girl holding the phone fell silent for a moment, then said, "You don't think anyone at Modu University could compete with Professor Su for a man, do you?"
"That's giving me too much credit."
The others said nothing.
Actually, they think the same way; whenever they get a chance, they themselves make a move—mainly competing with Su Manyao for men in front of Su Manyao, which is something that can make people despair!
…
In Jiang Cheng's dormitory, he has already gotten into bed to sleep.
Su Peng muttered, "Just now I was saying Deng Qi is a sycophantic, lewd, and lowly creep who might still grab some cheap advantages, but this kid actually turned out well—tonight he didn't even return to the dorm!"
Liu Tao indignantly whispered, "He came back, we locked the dorm door—he might actually be sleeping in an internet cafe right now."
But no one paid him any attention.
An impotent complaint from a coward, ignored by everyone.
"Jiang Cheng, I love you!"
Suddenly a navigation voice rang out, echoing throughout the dormitory building.
A soft reverberation echoed between the dormitory buildings.
"Holy shit, who's this fierce!" Su Peng sat up from bed and shouted!
Niu he jumped to the floor and ran toward the bathroom window: "The voice sounds like a girl's, but this confidence is a bit like a tank!" Jiang Cheng was also startled—it's the middle of the night, the dorm is locked, who could be this fierce?
He got up to go look.
All he could hear was another loud shout from a male student outside the dormitory building.
"Who goes there?"
"I thought Lu Bu was already invincible under heaven—who else's subordinate could this be?!"
"Which bastard is Jiang Cheng?"
"I love Jiang Cheng too!"
"Jiang Cheng is here—I am Jiang Cheng myself. Little sister, go back; I won't like you!"
" *Fuck Jiang!"
Jiang Cheng walked halfway, then returned to bed and went to sleep, letting them make their noise—Jiang Cheng is dead.
He blocked out the chaotic noise and continued to think about his own affairs.
If the person shouting downstairs was Yujie, he might still have a bit of interest.
But to have Yujie shout like that below his dorm as if her head were full of water, Jiang Cheng would rather believe Su Peng is Qin Shi Huang!
So faced with the gradually rising gossip sounds throughout the dormitory building, Jiang Cheng felt that thinking about his own plans now is even more important.
He has little motivation to make money itself, but he sells the copyrights of his songs and scripts in order to make money.
However, Jiang Cheng himself hasn't clarified the purpose of making money; just being in the same dorm as Su Peng, from his few words one can learn his family is quite unusual, which also means Yujie's family is the same.
After all, Yujie is Su Peng's biological sister.
So previously, without much thought, he felt he should just do this—namely, earn more money.
But upon serious reflection, the prerequisite for earning a lot of money is a career.
Is a career based solely on selling copyrights a good career? To really make the career work, one still has to personally get involved!
"Wanting to listen to a song is this hard—just do it, then do it!"
After thinking things through clearly, Jiang Cheng also settled down.
Outside it was still noisy, but the sound was much softer.
I thought the girl acting weird downstairs was probably uh, coming back together from the team-building, and I couldn't help but recall the scene of unity.
Although Yujie seems aloof, she is actually very well-behaved.
He remembered sitting on the camping mat on the lawn, jokingly saying he wanted to see legs, but Yujie gave him face and actually lifted her skirt a bit! That was far more shocking than seeing legs in shorts that expose the thighs.
Because the exposed legs could be seen by anyone, but the deliberately lifted skirt was unique.
Before meeting, when we were online dating, Jiang Cheng thought he was dating a gentle older sister; after meeting, I became Zixin, because without that gentle sister she would be like ice.
But I don't know why, that dead heart seems to have reignited like ashes rekindling.
The next morning.
Jiang Cheng followed his routine, got up for a morning run, then went to the cafeteria to get breakfast.
While eating porridge, he sent a message to Yujie.
If he really had to step in, he now has nothing but a little savings on him.
And Yujie is a professor in the Music Department, who can give him great help in the early stages.
"Yujie, when are you free?"
