Her three roommates screamed and threw themselves at Gu Nianzhi, hugging her tightly.
Mei Xiawen stood at the door, amused to see them hugging each other. He admired Gu Nianzhi.
All three of her roommates were the cream of the crop.
The oldest, Fang Wenxin, was known as Green Tea Fang. She was famous for being a green tea. Just from the nickname, one could tell she was the goddess of all boys and the enemy of all girls.
The second oldest, Cao Yunshan, was known as the Holy Mother, or Lady Cao for short. Rumor had it that she really did have a Lady in her family. Only an old aristocratic family could have such an intimidating aura.
As for the third oldest, Wang Junya, she was beautiful and alluring. Everyone called her Little Temptress. She was also a weapon of mass destruction with a single glance.
The three arrogant girls treated Gu Nianzhi, an orphan girl with an ordinary family background who had transferred in midway, surprisingly well. They completely treated her like a younger sister and took care of her.
"So enthusiastic, look how scared our Nianzhi is." Mei Xiawen carried Gu Nianzhi's backpack and dragged her suitcase as he walked in.
"Class Rep went to pick her up personally. Nianzhi, you're such a big deal!" Little Temptress winked at Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes darted around, "Class Rep is the one who picks up a classmate every time she's hospitalized, right?"
"You're so annoying! Little Four! You have to argue with me every time! " Little Temptress patted Gu Nianzhi's shoulder and pouted at Mei Xiawen, "Class Rep, this is as far as I can help you. Our Little Four may be young, but she's the top student in her class. You can't fool her! "
"I'm being sincere. Why would I fool you?" Mei Xiawen didn't hide anything.
It looked like he had already spoken to Gu Nianzhi's roommates.
Lady Cao wordlessly took Gu Nianzhi's backpack and suitcase from Mei Xiawen and placed them beside her desk.
Green Tea Fang crossed her arms and leaned against her desk. She said with a half-smile, "Class Rep, I see your cheeks are flushed and your forehead is glowing. Good news. How about it? Treat us to dinner to celebrate Nianzhi's return from her illness, okay? "
Mei Xiawen twirled the car key in his hand as he stood by the door and said, "No problem, tonight's dinner is on me. But … "He turned to look at Gu Nianzhi." Nianzhi, shouldn't you go to the faculty to cancel your leave first? "
Gu Nianzhi buried her head in her bag and took out the medical certificate Chen Lie had given her. "I was just about to go."
"Let's go together. I need to go to the department's student union office to take care of something." Mei Xiawen was also the president of the Faculty of Law. He naturally placed his hand on Gu Nianzhi's shoulder and wanted to pull her along.
Gu Nianzhi took a quick step forward to avoid his outstretched arm. "Class Rep, I still have to go see a few professors to cancel my leave. I haven't gone to class for a week, they're definitely not happy."
Mei Xiawen smiled and caught up with her as they walked out together.
The three roommates in the dormitory winked at each other and laughed, "Looks like our Little Sister Four is about to be enlightened!"
…
Mei Xiawen and Gu Nianzhi left the dormitory building and Mei Xiawen immediately said, "You don't have to go to the faculty to cancel your leave. Your family already did it for you."
"Oh?" Gu Nianzhi was taken aback. "Then why did Class Rep say I have to go to the faculty to cancel my leave?"
"I'm just giving you an excuse. The most important thing for you right now is to go see Professor He and request an interview." Mei Xiawen led her to his car, opened the door, and let her in. He said, "I've found out that Professor He lives in the specialist building on campus. I'll drive you there. Take the initiative to talk to him, show him your medical certificate, and ask for another interview."
Gu Nianzhi hadn't expected to face He Zhichu, the famous Professor of Law, as soon as she returned. She felt a bit nervous and clutched her medical certificate. She stammered, "Class Rep, is Professor He easy to talk to?"
"You're calling me Class Rep again. I wouldn't tell you even if I knew." Mei Xiawen pretended to be annoyed and tilted his head to look at her.
Gu Nianzhi smiled fawningly. "Class Rep, don't be so anxious. Well, I have to ask my family and get their opinion."
"Sure, why don't you call him now?" Mei Xiawen turned the steering wheel and backed out of the car. He urged her to hurry up and not give her a chance to brush him off.
He was determined to win her over.
Gu Nianzhi held her phone and thought about it. "I'll try."
She tried Huo Shaoheng's phone first. It rang for a long time, but no one picked up.
She had no choice but to call Chen Lie.
Chen Lie picked up her call right away.
Before she could speak, Chen Lie asked anxiously, "Nianzhi? What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? Where are you? I'll come pick you up right now! "
Gu Nianzhi immediately felt that Chen Lie's occupational disease was too serious. She only called him and he assumed she was sick …
She shook her head. "I'm not feeling well. Brother Chen, are you alright?"
"Not feeling well? That's good! That's good! So why are you looking for me? "
Gu Nianzhi could feel the relief in Chen Lie's voice even through the phone.
She frowned slightly and covered the phone to face the car window. She stammered, "Brother Chen, it's like this. Do you … do you know Uncle Huo's number?"
Gu Nianzhi originally wanted to tell Chen Lie that Class Rep wanted to pursue her, but she swallowed the words. She asked for Huo Shaoheng's number instead.
Chen Lie laughed heartily. "What's wrong? You need Huo Shao for something? What is it? Do you need my help? Huo Shao went back to headquarters. It's not easy to find him. "
"Oh." Gu Nianzhi was slightly disappointed. She wanted to hang up but saw Mei Xiawen looking at her again. She didn't want to brush him off right in front of his face. She took a deep breath and murmured, "Brother Chen, it's like this. I-I … my classmate said he wants to pursue me and asked if I was okay with it … I wanted … to ask … your opinion …"
"If he wants to pursue me, then go ahead. Why do you need me to agree?" Chen Lie chuckled. He lowered his voice and asked, "Is it your Class Rep?"
Gu Nianzhi blinked and made an almost inaudible sound of agreement.
"I see. It seems very important. After all, he's our Nianzhi's first boyfriend. You have to be careful. How about I ask Huo Shao for you? He's your guardian after all! "
Gu Nianzhi nodded. A thought flashed through her mind. She suddenly blurted it out, "Brother Chen, has Uncle Huo been busy with work lately?"
"He's been alright? He was a bit busy a few days ago. He's just gotten some free time recently. What's up? "
"Does he have a girlfriend?" Gu Nianzhi asked nosily.
The last time she received his call, he had asked her to call him Uncle and forbade her from calling him Huo Shao like everyone else. It was as if he wanted to avoid arousing suspicion.
She recalled the phone call Huo Shaoheng had made by mistake the other day. He had blurted out "Darling." Gu Nianzhi's intuition told her that Huo Shaoheng probably had a girlfriend.
"Oh? Well, I don't know. "Chen Lie's round mouth opened and closed." Why do you ask? "
