Chapter 1303: Chapter 862: To Go Home, You Need a Home First
"Oh, oh." Jiang Nian understood.
But it’s a private family matter, so it’s not good to gossip about it everywhere. When it comes to keeping secrets, there’s no doubt about it.
"What about you?"
"Going back to Zhen Nan for the New Year this year?"
"Yeah, the ticket is for a few days later." Cai Xiaoqing nodded, "I’ll be resting at home for a bit, having a good New Year."
"So envious."
"What are you envious of?" Cai Xiaoqing glanced at him, "I heard from the class monitor that you’re selling clothes?"
"Yeah."
"That’s pretty impressive, our class. They’re either playing around or busy working on their grades."
Li Qingrong didn’t say much, just listening to the two chat. They talked about where their high school classmates had gone and their current situations.
Cai Xiaoqing suddenly said, "Speaking of which, quite a few people from our class applied to Beijing."
"Really?" Jiang Nian felt a bit awkward.
Luckily, Cai Xiaoqing didn’t start giving examples. She just mentioned why she and Nie Qiqi went to Beijing.
One chose the optimal rational choice, the other went for the fun.
Actually, apart from this.
Most people were like this. If Xiao Song missed his choice, he’d either go to Peking University Medical School or Renmin University.
When the scores are high, the choices are limited.
As for Yao Beibei, she followed Zhizhi. She was quite satisfied with Renmin University and felt it was reputable to attend.
Chen Yunyun and her friends would be more comfortable in Southern China, but because of him, they filled out applications for Beijing Institute of Technology.
Then there’s... Yu Yourong.
No matter what, she’s been here for half a year. Even if she were to leave, it wouldn’t be for another three years.
Jiang Nian was the first to leave.
If his score wasn’t too high, he should have been in Guangzhou, or simply attended university in Yuhang, which would be more convenient.
But now, things are quite good too.
There are many talents.
It’s just running back and forth, a bit tiring. But most things can be handled remotely, and taking a plane isn’t exhausting.
After lunch, Cai Xiaoqing went back to school.
She didn’t participate in the couple’s second stage, hurriedly took her leave, even walking a bit quickly.
Jiang Nian snapped back to reality, wondering if Soy Milk knew something, realizing he might be doomed.
As he was thinking this, Li Qingrong asked from the side.
"Want to take a walk?"
"Sure." Jiang Nian nodded.
He’s not one to overthink, so he linked arms with Li Qingrong, strolled on the street for a while, and returned to Yan Garden.
In the snow, the university campus was quiet.
Jiang Nian and Li Qingrong strolled, chatting some idle words. Some questions were for the future, some were right before their eyes.
"For New Year... Is it just you and your sister?"
"Yeah."
Li Qingrong looked down, thought for a moment, and added, "If you want to come, just let me know."
"How do you know I want to come?" Jiang Nian was surprised, "Trying to give a surprise, and you totally spoiled it."
Li Qingrong: "..."
She looked at Jiang Nian sideways, "Not entirely a surprise. My sister doesn’t really want to meet you but isn’t against it either."
"Afraid I’ll really take you away." Jiang Nian shrugged, "How’s your sister’s relationship with your parents?"
Li Qingrong fell silent for a moment upon hearing this.
"Average."
Jiang Nian understood, realizing Li Lanying was like a small buffer zone, separating Li Qingrong from her family.
As an adult, she was free now.
As for why Da Baiyou wasn’t fond of Jiang Nian, it wasn’t hard to understand; Jiang Nian grew up too fast.
"Has your sister mentioned having dinner at home or anything recently?" Jiang Nian suddenly asked.
"No." Li Qingrong shook her head.
Jiang Nian heard this and chuckled sarcastically.
Dammit, Li Lanying was really cunning, not giving him a chance at all. If not for old stories resurfacing.
Then he’d directly take Qingqing Wife away.
...
Dormitory.
Da Chao heard sounds at the door and couldn’t help but turn his head, "Hmm? Why are you back so early?"
"When don’t I come back early?"
Jiang Nian found a chair to sit down, but the truth was the class monitor had an exam tomorrow, so after the walk, they could only go their separate ways.
"Sure, if you don’t come back at night then it’s early morning." Brother Bao Song laughed, "No plans after the exam?"
"Where’s your partner?"
"Probably went home." Jiang Nian replied casually, "All exams are done, hop in for a three-man team?"
"Come on."
"Is Da Chao free, or busy chasing after his ex?"
"Damn you..." Da Chao was speechless too, this pair of colleagues, "Come on, come on, log in, log in."
After playing for a while, all three felt a bit hungry.
"Want to go for a late-night snack?"
"So cold."
"Doesn’t Da Chao have instant noodles?" Brother Bao Song said, "Make do with that, tastes pretty good."
"Wasn’t he planning to send them to his ex?" Jiang Nian asked.
"Damn it!"
Da Chao couldn’t hold back again, these two were bantering non-stop, not much harm but highly insulting.
"You two are animals, I’ve already said we’re not broken up!"
"Bro, we’re all adults now." Brother Bao Song said, "What’s the first thing you plan to do when you go home?"
"Find friends to hang out."
"That’s intense." Brother Bao Song glanced at him, "You expect your girlfriend to stay home?"
Da Chao: "...."
"True, breaking up early avoids getting cheated on." He pondered, "What do you think, Jiang Nian?"
Jiang Nian thought for a moment, then asked.
"Are you a virgin?"
Upon hearing this, Da Chao, who was drinking water, directly spat it out.
"Cough, cough, cough!! What?"
"Nothing, just a casual question." Jiang Nian observed him for a moment, but didn’t say much more.
Half a year of being a virgin is quite normal.
For stable couples. Not everyone is in a rush, unless the relationship is shallow, then that’s different.
With one sentence, the conversation died.
The three switched topics, discussing where to go for a late-night snack, and after some fussing, finally set off.
In the middle of the night, bundled in down jackets, happily on their way. Only returning to the dorm long past midnight, stepping softly.
Still not satisfied, their night talk lasted until three or four in the morning.
The relationship between guys in a dorm is basically like that. Slowly nurtured, some deep and some shallow.
