Chapter 395: 271 is blind to the greatness of Mount Tai!_2
But despite his exaggerated ’performance’ behind her, Xia Ye didn’t even notice him at the front.
She just looped her arm around Qi Ran’s neck and walked intimately together, with other students around them envying Qi Ran.
"Who is this girl? Xia Ye is actually looping her arm around her neck. They seem very close!"
"Let me soul swap with that girl! I want to become good friends with Xia Ye too!" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Hearing these voices, Jiang Jiujue disdainfully ’tsked’.
"She’s a real Fairy," murmured Yang Qiange.
Jiang Jiujue often called Xia Ye a Fairy, but when he heard Yang Qiange calling Xia Ye ’Fairy,’ he couldn’t help but glance at her. A moment later, he withdrew his gaze with a murky expression.
Passing by the cafeteria, Yang Qiange looked at Jiang Jiujue with a beaming smile, "Grandpa, have you had lunch? Would you like to try our school’s buffet lunch?"
Jiang Jiujue’s face lit up with a smile, "Alright, then I’ll bother you with that."
Yang Qiange smiled gracefully, "Grandpa, you’re too polite."
When the four of them arrived at the restaurant, Yang Qiange found Jiang Jiujue a seat by the window and swiftly used her meal card to help him get food and water. Her bustling about thoroughly pleased Jiang Jiujue.
In contrast, Xia Ye was just busy getting food with her utterly clueless friend, completely ignoring him!
After Xia Ye and Qi Ran got their food, the other seats around were already taken. They had no choice but to share a table with Jiang Jiujue.
Jiang Jiujue turned to Yang Qiange, "Little girl, what’s your name?"
Yang Qiange happily gave her name, worrying that the wealthy old man wouldn’t be able to find her later, and also mentioned her department and class.
Jiang Jiujue nodded complacently, "Good, promising."
——’Qiange is so sensible, knows how to respect the elderly.’
——’People like her will definitely not be offended by us old folks at Ear Mountain.’
——’Don’t always think we’re old and selling old, we are...’
Seeing Xia Ye ignoring him, chatty Jiang Jiujue deliberately whispered many words into Xia Ye’s ear.
Irritated by his buzzing, Xia Ye held her chin in one hand, leisurely sized him up from head to toe and lifted her chin towards him.
——’Next time don’t come in your current outfit, switch to an old man’s clothes, let’s see if she’s still sensible then?’
Jiang Jiujue frowned displeasedly as he grasped the innuendo in her words.
——’You think Qiange is nice to me because of money? Don’t create such vulgar assumptions about everyone. I’ve lived hundreds of years longer than you, traveled more roads than the salt you’ve eaten. I can definitely see what kind of people they are clearer than you!’
Xia Ye laughed mockingly.
——’Heh.’
Qi Ran, watching their expressive exchange, was unaware that they had already had many rounds of dialogue.
Yang Qiange failed to notice their expressions, her mind fixated on how to get the wealthy old man’s attention.
After the reception just now, she felt that Jiang Jiujue had a good impression of her, so she seized the opportunity and pretended to casually ask, "Grandpa, you said you came to Beijing University to take care of some matters? Can you tell us what it is, if it’s convenient?"
Jiang Jiujue was about to say ’it’s not convenient,’ but then he remembered Xia Ye’s cynical speculation.
To prove Xia Ye wrong, Jiang Jiujue intentionally said, "Ah, it’s nothing inconvenient, I am here... looking for a job."
"Looking for a job?" This was clearly not the answer Yang Qiange had envisioned. She asked again, "What kind of job?"
Could he possibly be a professor?
Fully in character, Jiang Jiujue sighed softly and said with a bitter smile, "Not sure yet, I’ll do whatever makes money. Little girl, do you have any suitable jobs to recommend to me?"
Yang Qiange was completely silent...
Jiang Jiujue looked at Xia Ye triumphantly.
——’Look how the little girl reacts when she finds out I have no money.’
The next second, he heard Yang Qiange, on the opposite side, switching from her previous warmth to a chilly response, "I really don’t know any jobs suitable for someone of your age."
Jiang Jiujue was stunned.
Yang Qiange then disdainfully continued, "Grandpa, you should hurry back after you finish eating. Our Beijing University has strict management, I don’t know how you got in, but the security will definitely kick out vagrants like you if they find you."
Her mercenary attitude was like she had become a completely different person compared to moments ago.
As she spoke, she even pulled out her meal card from her pocket and slapped it on the table, "The food and water I got you just now total 20 yuan. Please scan the code and wire it to me."
Yang Qiange felt utterly frustrated, the old man had such good dining manners, and his clothes and accessories seemed branded, yet unexpectedly, he was a pauper!
