Chapter 73 The Essence of Tea
With a light tap of the "agree" button, Jiang Feng put down his phone, already able to picture Chen Yulin's reaction.
If it were Chen Yulin, she would definitely brag to her buddies for ages, fantasizing about whether the most beautiful girl in the department has a crush on her, and then imagining a 100,000-word campus romance drama.
This guy is suited to writing novels.
Jiang Feng didn't send any messages after failing to get through, waiting for the most beautiful girl in the department to reveal her intentions.
He leaned back in his chair and slowly opened Fang Ningxue's WeChat Moments. Come to think of it, in the past few days since he transmigrated, the first day he was busy adapting to the new environment and worrying about his grades, and today he was focused on live streaming and editing videos. He hadn't even properly seen what this beauty of the department looked like yet.
First post on WeChat Moments:
I want a heart.
Article :
I want to be put back on a ventilator.
Article :
Why is my drop rate so low?
The fourth point finally brought a touch of joy:
I'm so happy that Juehang has finally withdrawn. (Also included a screenshot showing a 200 million reward.)
The fifth:
Waaaaah~ My oil!
What internet-addicted girl? This is a severe Delta Force addict!
The river wind quickly swept downwards, passing over Puba to collect trash and other such activities.
A photo of someone wearing Hanfu instantly caught Jiang Feng's eye.
In the photo, Fang Ningxue stands by West Lake, dressed in an elegant Song Dynasty Hanfu. The golden rays of the setting sun fall on her hair, outlining her soft features. A gentle smile plays on her lips, her eyes crinkling, her demeanor both refined and serene. While not strikingly beautiful at first glance, her beauty grows more pleasing with each look, radiating a sense of peace and tranquility. (See image below ⇨⇨)
Wow, what a classy beauty!
No wonder she's the most beautiful girl in the department.
I had just finished browsing my WeChat Moments when a notification sound rang. It was a message from Fang Ningxue; the tone of the text was indiscernible, but it sounded very serious:
Quiet Snow: We notified you to compile the class schedule the day before yesterday, but you still haven't submitted it.
Another one followed: Playing games all day long, forgetting all about important things?
So they've come to interrogate me! Jiang Feng has been too busy since his rebirth to remember the class schedule, and he's also forgotten that this beauty of the department is the class's academic representative.
He quickly replied, "Oh, oh, oh! I was so busy I forgot, I'll hand it in now!"
Jiang Feng took a screenshot of the class schedule and sent it over. Within seconds, he received an OK emoji reply from Fang Ningxue, simple and efficient.
Just when Jiang Feng thought the matter was over, another message popped up: Received, but you played the game very well.
With just a few words and no expression, he made his three roommates, who had been watching the whole thing, explode.
Chen Yulin leaned close to the screen, anxiously pleading for Jiang Feng: "??? Reply! She praised your gaming skills, so hurry up and invite her to team up! What if sparks fly, right?!"
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes. This girl, the most beautiful girl in the department, was a netizen, heavily addicted to Delta, and was currently starving for Harvard Coins. He had even watched her live stream.
Even if they have no designs on Jiang Feng himself, do they have no designs on Hafcoin?
This isn't a game of feigned indifference; Jiang Feng is going straight for it!
This department's flower tea is all tea flavor, but Jiang Feng isn't buying it.
Jiang Feng casually replied: Thank you.
「你懂不懂什幺叫拉扯？」 江风把手机揣回口袋，语气欠揍，「算了，跟你这舔狗说不清楚。」
Chen Yulin retorted, "Who are you calling a simp?"
I'm so hungry.
Jiang Feng rubbed his stomach, realizing that it was highly likely that his second growth spurt was starting to take effect. His body needed to complete its transformation within three months, growing to the ideal 185cm height, which naturally required a significant amount of energy.
"Let's go, let's go! My treat tonight, let's go for a buffet."
"Holy crap, my godfather is so generous!"
Chen Yulin's expression changed instantly, and Chen Dexing and Zhang Jindong also became excited, their eyes shining.
"What about that class?"
"Ideological and Moral Cultivation class is a joke," Chen Yulin said as she went to the next dormitory room and shouted.
"Yao Tao, the four of us won't be going to Ideological and Political Education class tonight. If the teacher calls roll, you guys can answer for us!"
Yao Tao was playing DOTA2 and gave the middle finger as a sign of agreement.
Seeing his sons so happy, Jiang Feng was also very happy. Wasn't the purpose of his father earning money for his sons to spend?
The group walked out of the dormitory in a grand procession.
Their university has a pretty good location. It's bordered by the Qiantang River to the east, Baolong Plaza is a 5-minute walk to the west, Hangzhou Normal University is to the north, and there are residential areas to the south. A little further east, it's also adjacent to Jiangsu University of Finance and Economics, Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, Jiangsu University of Media and Communications, and Hangzhou Dianzi University.
This area is a university town, so Xiasha is jokingly called the "Cannon City".
All I can say is that those who know, know.
Jiang Feng first took his three silly sons to Baolong and entered a beautifully decorated gym.
He went straight to the front desk and said bluntly, "Find your manager. I want to apply for a card and I need to be able to bring three extra people. Ask if that's possible."
The gym located near the university town naturally has different rules than ordinary gyms, having already figured out the needs of the student population.
The manager quickly arrived, smiling, and said, "You want to bring your roommates to work out, right? We have a business card that allows one person to bring three, but it's a bit pricey." "Just tell me the price," Jiang Feng said, too lazy to argue. After some haggling, they finally settled on a card for 4888 yuan. Chen Yulin and the other two looked at each other, completely bewildered: "We didn't plan to work out..."
"I want to work out, so you guys have to come with me." Jiang Feng patted the three of them on the shoulder, coaxing them gently, "Think about it, once you guys have eight-pack abs and amazing physiques, how many girls will be swooning over you?"
"Hmm~ But it's too expensive."
"Let's split the cost of this card!"
Jiang Feng shook his head. "Only 4888."
Money gives heroes courage. Even though Jiang Feng didn't achieve his expectations in his previous life, he still caught up with the era of e-sports boom, and as a professional player and escort, he amassed a fortune of several million.
Spending money is naturally different from that of students.
"Let's go eat at a buffet!" Jiang Feng hailed a taxi and headed straight for the upscale buffet restaurant he had already chosen. When they arrived, Chen Yulin and the other two widened their eyes instantly when they saw the price of 488 yuan per person on the menu.
Chen Yulin tugged at Jiang Feng's sleeve, her voice trembling, "Holy crap, eating something this expensive? That's enough for my living expenses for a week!"
The voice was trembling.
"Dad's treating, what are you panicking about?" Jiang Feng nonchalantly chose a window seat and casually flipped through the menu. "This is just the cheap stuff; the most expensive set meal is 1888."
"Eat up, everyone! Let Dad get his money's worth!"
The 488 yuan set meal, which includes unlimited M9 Wagyu beef, sea urchin, and sweet shrimp, is already considered a fairly high-end option.
Jiang Feng was so generous for two reasons: first, to reward himself for the huge success of his live stream; and second, to thank his three roommates for their understanding. During the two days of live streaming, the dormitory was packed with people, but they didn't complain at all and fully cooperated with him, even helping him to improve the live stream's effect. Jiang Feng saw all of this.
While his three naive roommates were still taking pictures and posting them on WeChat Moments, Jiang Feng had already started eating; he was truly starving!
An hour later, Chen Yulin and the other two had long since finished eating and drinking, and were slumped in their chairs, unable to move, while Jiang Feng was still engrossed in eating, with a tall stack of plates piled up in front of him.
"Brother Feng, your appetite is outrageous!" Chen Dexing stared in disbelief. "How come I never realized you could eat so much before?"
Jiang Feng gave a mumbled reply and continued stuffing Wagyu beef into his mouth. He had anticipated that the second growth spurt would consume a lot of energy, which was why he had specifically chosen the buffet, just in case there wasn't enough to eat.
Just then, a man in a suit walked over with a waiter.
Chen Yulin tensed up instantly, muttering under her breath, "Oh no, oh no, you ate too much, are we going to get kicked out?"
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at him: "Have you been reading too many Dragon King novels? What kind of buffet restaurant is this? They can kick people out just because they eat too much? Your most urgent task is to uninstall that rotten persimmon from your phone!"
The man in the suit walked to the table with a polite smile: "Hello sir, thank you for your support of our restaurant."
"What would you like to say about our food and service?"
"It's great, the ingredients are fresh and there's a good variety." Jiang Feng wiped his mouth and replied casually.
"It's like this," the man in the suit said with a smile, "we'd like to take a photo of you for our restaurant's promotion. In return, your meal and your friend's will be on the house. Is that alright?"
Jiang Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded: "Of course!"
The waiter quickly took out his phone and took a picture of Jiang Feng and the stack of plates in front of him.
For upscale buffet restaurants, the best form of advertising is ensuring guests have a satisfying meal.
Jiang Feng flashed a peace sign at the camera; he was happy, and so was the restaurant manager.
What should four men do after eating and drinking their fill during the long night?
Jiang Feng looked down at his feet, a smile playing on his lips.
Hmm... it's perfect timing to have itchy feet!
