Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 169 - 86: Qin Shiqing Cried—She and I Really Aren’t Siblings!
Waited for a while at the school gate, and then the bus arrived.
The buses in Lin’an still run steadily, unlike the bold and fierce drivers in Jiangcheng City, the capital of Hu Bei Province, who are like retired F1 drivers.
Especially the legendary 521, if a non-local has the good fortune to ride it for the first time, they can definitely experience an exhilarating thrill that they will never forget.
Have you ever seen a bus drive onto a green belt and then casually drive off again?
Have you ever sat on a bus where your buttocks often lift 20cm off the seat?
Have you ever seen a dog get jostled and vomit on a bus?
You can see all these scenarios in Jiangcheng City!
In Jiangcheng City, it’s normal for buses to overtake taxis on the road. It’s not impossible for a bus to overtake a train on the Yangtze River Bridge. The scary part is when a bus overtakes another bus; the scene is so beautiful, just like the high-speed chase of the Fuxing bullet train in the later years.
Those non-locals or local residents who have been living in Jiangcheng City for a long time are very experienced. Once on a 521 bus, you must not dawdle; find a seat as fast as possible. If there are no seats, then you have to hold the handrail tightly with both hands, spread your legs to a certain extent, tighten your abdomen, and bend your knees slightly. This way, you can avoid being thrown out when the bus brakes. So, passengers who are used to the 521 have all trained to have a good horse stance; once they do it, they are as steady as Mount Tai. And I’m not just bragging to you.
Not long after, Su Zelin arrived at the gate of Zhejiang University, got off the bus, looked at his phone, and saw there was still some time before the agreed time, just right.
There were still quite a few people coming in and out of the gate, and some girls couldn’t help but take a few more glances at him.
That face of his still appeals to the opposite sex. While at the Finance College, he also encountered quite a few girls who approached him to ask for his QQ.
However, it seemed the girls at Zhejiang University were more reserved, and none came over to chat him up.
A few minutes later, several graceful figures appeared in the distance, and the keen-eyed Su Zelin immediately recognized them as Qin Shiqing and her friends.
What slightly surprised Su Zelin was that the whole dorm of childhood friends actually came, including Shen Jia, Deng Xiaoman, and also Xiao Yue, Yan Qiuwen, and Chen Zi.
The latter hadn’t arrived at school yet when Qin Shiqing registered, so this was the first time Su Zelin met them, although he had heard about them from Qin Shiqing and Xiao Yue.
The more girls, the better, of course. Su Zelin perked up, walked over, and put on a smile: "Hi, lovely ladies, how are you? It’s been two months since we last met, and I’ve missed you terribly!"
Xiao Yue rolled her eyes.
Still that familiar feeling and thick-skinned demeanor.
"Qin Zelin, you really fooled me!"
She couldn’t help but complain.
That day, she was really fooled by this guy, thinking he was a roommate’s brother, and gave him her QQ number, only to find out later that wasn’t the case.
Considering her roommate’s ambiguous relationship with him, Xiao Yue felt embarrassed. Luckily, Qin Shiqing didn’t mind later, and they talked a few times online and gradually became friends.
Of course, Xiao Yue was very mindful of the boundaries and remained just friends.
"Yueyue, I had my reasons at the time. Mainly, it was because the vice president of the student union in that department said boys couldn’t enter the girls’ dorm casually, so I had no choice but to resort to that!"
This rogue instantly put the blame on Xie Tianyu, then sighed: "Actually, after deceiving you, I felt very uneasy, tormented by guilt, lost my appetite, and even had insomnia for over a month!"
The girls thought, "Yeah, right! We wouldn’t believe a single punctuation mark of what you say now!"
"Qin Zelin, you said you lost your appetite and had insomnia for over a month, but why do you look so good?"
Shen Jia teased. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Su Zelin laughed: "Isn’t that because I knew I would see you today and could apologize in person to make amends? It lifted my spirits, improved my appetite, and even my sleep quality improved!"
Shen Jia was at a loss; this guy is too slick-tongued; you really can’t outtalk him.
Chen Zi watched Su Zelin with interest. She had to admit that her roommate’s childhood friend indeed looked sunny and handsome, with a straight figure and a great vibe, just slightly mischievous, but in a harmless way.
Just then, after greeting everyone else, Su Zelin turned his attention to Chen Zi and said with a smile: "This must be the legendary little A Zi, right? You’re just as sweet and lovely as I imagined!"
When he called Qin Shiqing, Chen Zi answered; of course, he knew her from a previous life as well; she was a sweet and soft girl.
"No, not really!"
Chen Zi blushed instantly.
Seeing her roommate, her childhood friend almost ignored her, and Qin Shiqing was so annoyed she could almost gnash her teeth. If there weren’t so many people, she would have pinched that rogue a few times.
But she quickly remembered what Yan Qiuwen had said.
"However, you all ended up at universities in Lin’an; Su Zelin was afraid of things getting out of hand, so he tried everything to prevent the scenario he most didn’t want to see from happening."
"He had various methods, like avoiding being alone with you, deliberately getting close to other girls in front of you, or being very aloof when chatting on QQ!"
He must be doing it on purpose.
I can hold it in!
...
After exchanging pleasantries with the girls, they got on the bus and headed straight to the computer city.
On the bus, Su Zelin continued to chat up Xiao Yue and a few other girls tirelessly.
However, strangely, when it came to Yan Qiuwen, he didn’t flirt much.
They didn’t talk much, and the conversations were sporadic.
But every time they exchanged words, there was always a subtle feeling that other people sensed.
