Lin Qiao froze in the middle of opening the car door. She blushed and turned her head back. Xia Ruofei also turned his head in the direction of the voice.
Three girls were standing not far away, looking curiously at Xia Ruofei and the domineering Knight XV off-road vehicle. The girl who had spoken was standing in the middle. She looked delicate and pretty, and the most impressive thing about her was her long black hair.
The girl was looking at Lin Qiao inquisitively.
Lin Qiao was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses. She quickly said, "Sister He, Juan Zi, Xixi, why did you come down?"
The girl called "Sister He" by Lin Qiao said with a reproachful face, "Stop talking! You were on the phone and suddenly you went crazy, screaming and rushing downstairs. We were all scared. How could we not come down to see? What if something happened? "
Sister He glanced at Xia Ruofei as she spoke.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but smile bitterly. A flashy luxury car, a young appearance, and the entrance of the girls' dormitory … These girls seemed to have thought of some bad social phenomena …
Lin Qiao also quickly realized it. Her pretty face suddenly blushed. She said coquettishly, "Sister He, what could happen to me? What were you thinking? "
Lin Qiao's shy appearance made Sister He and the others even more suspicious.
Xia Ruofei looked at Lin Qiao with some amusement and took the initiative to ask, "Hello! Are you Qiao 'er's classmates? "
When Sister He heard Xia Ruofei call Lin Qiao so intimately, she looked at Xia Ruofei with some vigilance. She had already equated Xia Ruofei with those young men who drove luxury cars to the campus to keep girls as their mistresses.
Egret Island University was a well-known university in the country, so this kind of phenomenon was relatively rare. However, it was precisely because of this that Sister He felt even more sorry for Lin Qiao. Lin Qiao was usually a young and lively girl who was loved by everyone. She didn't expect Lin Qiao to go astray for material enjoyment.
Xia Ruofei saw that the three girls were silent, so he smiled and took the initiative to explain. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Xia Ruofei …"
"We're not interested in what your name is!" Sister Lotus interrupted Xia Ruofei's words.
Xia Ruofei said with a wry smile, "You may have misunderstood. I'm Lin Qiao's brother!"
Lin Qiao also came back to reality...... . that's my brother! What are you thinking? "
Sister He suddenly felt embarrassed, but she quickly came back to reality. She looked at Xia Ruofei and Lin Qiao suspiciously and said, "What a coincidence. I saw the family situation form you filled out. You don't have a brother! Also, you don't have the same surname, and you don't look alike … "
Sister He was the eldest sister in the dormitory, and she was also a class committee member, so she had the opportunity to see the forms everyone filled out.
Her words made Lin Qiao think of her brother, Lin Hu, who had sacrificed himself. A trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
Xia Ruofei saw this and gently patted Lin Qiao's shoulder. Then, he said to Sister He, "It's not that Qiao 'er doesn't have a brother, but … her brother sacrificed himself for the country …"
"Ah?" Sister He suddenly covered her mouth.
Xia Ruofei continued, "I'm her brother's comrade-in-arms. Her mother is my godmother, and she is my godsister. Do you understand now?"
Sister He and the others had already believed most of what he said. After all, Lin Qiao usually didn't worship money at all. She was a very simple and lively girl. There might be a girl at Heron Island University who would accept a rich man's support, but this person would definitely not be Lin Qiao.
At this time, another girl next to Sister He shouted, "I remember now. Qiao 'er said that her Mac laptop and iPad were given to her by her brother. It should be you!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded.
Sister He also remembered that Lin Qiao had indeed said something like that. However, she was prejudiced, so she suddenly remembered that Lin Qiao's form didn't have a brother.
Sister He was a little embarrassed, and her face was red. She quickly glanced at Xia Ruofei, then lowered her head and said, "Qiao 'er, I'm sorry! We misunderstood you … "
Lin Qiao smiled very generously and said, "Sister He, it's okay. It's fine as long as you explain clearly …"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Qiao 'er, these are your classmates, right? They really care about you … Oh, right, you haven't introduced me yet! "
"That's right!" Lin Qiao said with a smile. "Brother Ruofei, then let me formally introduce you. This is He He, the big sister in our dormitory. Don't be fooled by her soft and weak appearance. She has a black belt in Taekwondo!"
He He said, a little embarrassed, "I just practiced as an amateur …"
"You can get a black belt even as an amateur. That's very impressive!" Xia Ruofei said with a gentle smile.
"That's right! Three to five boys can't even get close to Sister He! "Lin Qiao said." But Brother Ruofei, your Kung Fu is still better! "
He He glanced at the fair and clean Xia Ruofei with some surprise. There was a hint of eagerness to fight in her eyes.
Xia Ruofei knew that these amateurs loved to challenge others. He quickly said, "Qiao 'er, don't talk nonsense. I've been out of the army for so many years. The Kung Fu I learned has long since fallen behind!"
Xia Ruofei mastered the ability to kill people. Why would he want to use it to spar with a little girl? Besides, what if he accidentally hurt He He?
Then Xia Ruofei quickly said, "There are still two classmates I haven't introduced!"
As soon as Xia Ruofei finished speaking, the short-haired girl on He He's right said with a smile, "I'll do it myself! Brother Xia! My name is Chen Xi! I'm from Cantonese! I'm Qiao 'er's roommate, and also her best friend! Brother Xia, please take care of me in the future! "
Chen Xi looked like a lively girl. She wasn't shy with strangers at all. She called him "Brother Xia" very sweetly. Coupled with her slightly accented Mandarin, it sounded very comfortable to listen to.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Okay! Please take care of Qiao 'er. This girl is sometimes careless and easily forgets things … "
"How could I?" Lin Qiao muttered a few words, then said, "Brother Ruofei, there's another one! This is Cheng Juan! She's from Xiangnan Province! The four of us are in the same dorm! "
Cheng Juan looked gentle and quiet. She was not as fierce as Xiangnan, and she blushed easily. Xia Ruofei's gentle gaze swept over, and her face suddenly flushed. She smiled shyly at Xia Ruofei as a greeting.
Chen Xi said charmingly, "Brother Xia! It's not easy for you to come to Heron Island. Shouldn't you treat us to a big meal? "
"Xi Xi!" He He quickly pulled on Chen Xi's sleeve, using her eyes to stop her from continuing.
Xia Ruofei didn't mind and said, "No problem! You're all Qiao 'er's good classmates and friends. I'll treat you to a meal at noon! "
"Yeah! I can finally improve my life! I've had enough of the school cafeteria's food! "Chen Xi shouted happily.
He He shook her head helplessly, then looked at Xia Ruofei and said, "Xia … Mr Xia, forget it! You siblings are reunited, so we won't cause trouble … "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "How can you call it causing trouble when we're eating together? Besides, I'm not alone, I have a few friends with me! We're all young people, so there's no need to be so formal, right? "
"This …"
"It's settled then!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Let's … go to Gulangyu for lunch! We can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of Heron Island! "
Originally, Xia Ruofei was going to take Zhao Yongjun and the others to eat some of Heron Island's specialty snacks before going to Gulangyu. However, he couldn't treat Lin Qiao's classmates so casually. Moreover, they went to school here, so they must have tasted all of Heron Island's specialty snacks. If he treated them to a meal, he had to be a little more upscale.
The food and accommodation at Gulangyu were all arranged by Liu Zhe. The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission had designated the reception unit, so it definitely wouldn't be bad.
Lin Qiao also persuaded her sisters with a smile. Under her and Chen Xi's urging, He He and Cheng Juan finally agreed.
Thus, Xia Ruofei opened the car door and told Zhao Yongjun and Song Rui to let Song Rui call Liu Zhe and ask him to arrange lunch.
Then, considering that Lin Qiao already had four people, Zhao Yongjun and He He took the initiative to get out of the car and squeeze in with Hou Liang and the others. After all, it wasn't very far from the pier.
When Zhao Yongjun and He He He got out of the car, Xia Ruofei smiled and said to Lin Qiao, "Qiao 'er, let me introduce you. You know Song Rui, and this is Zhao Yongjun from Beijing. You can call him Brother Zhao too!"
"Big Brother Zhao, Big Brother Song, nice to meet you!" Lin Qiao said gracefully.
Zhao Yongjun smiled and said, "Hello! I heard from Ruofei about you guys. Your brother is a very amazing person! As a former soldier, I have to express my respect! "
"Thank you Brother Zhao …" Lin Qiao said with her eyes slightly red.
"There are a few friends in the car over there. I'll introduce them to you guys when we get to the pier!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Let's go!"
Chen Xi and the others were very new to the mighty and domineering Knight XV off-road vehicle. The three girls sat in the second and third rows, and Lin Qiao naturally took the front passenger seat.
In a moment, the four young and beautiful girls got into the luxurious off-road vehicle together. This scene attracted a lot of attention, especially a lot of boys who pretended to look over unintentionally. They couldn't hide the envy in their eyes.
Xia Ruofei casually put on the polarizing glasses on the dashboard. Once she put on the classic aviator glasses, she looked even more unruly. The delicate feeling that came from her fair skin was instantly neutralized by quite a bit.
Lin Qiao, who was sitting next to Xia Ruofei, couldn't help but secretly look at Xia Ruofei's side profile. Her heart was beating wildly.
After the two cars started, they drove out of Egret Island University's campus and then went along the island road to the ferry pier.
Gulangyu was very close to Egret Island City. Standing at the pier, they could see the situation on the opposite island, especially the huge Zheng Chenggong statue. It was very clear.
Xia Ruofei and the others found a place to park the car, then gathered together and walked toward the pier.
Xia Ruofei also introduced Lin Qiao to Hou Liang and the others.
On the way, Zhao Yongjun briefly told everyone about Lin Qiao's situation. In addition, Lin Qiao was Xia Ruofei's sister, so everyone was very warm to her. Even Lin Qiao's roommates were very friendly to her.
When Xia Ruofei and the others walked to the pier's ticket office, a young man in a black jacket hurried over and asked politely, "Are you Mr. Xia? I'm Mr. Liu Zhe's friend! I'm from Egret Island's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. "
This young man was arranged by Liu Zhe to receive Xia Ruofei and the others. Just now, when Song Rui called Liu Zhe, he immediately called Egret Island. Because Xia Ruofei and the others were originally scheduled to go to Gulangyu in the afternoon, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission had already left people on Gulangyu to receive them. After receiving the call, they immediately took the fastest ferry back to the pier.
Liu Zhe had already told the reception staff on Egret Island that Xia Ruofei and the other four girls were here. He also carefully sent Xia Ruofei's photo, so the group of seven men and four women was very obvious.
The young man even secretly checked the photo before quickly walking over to greet him.
"I'm Xia Ruofei!" Xia Ruofei smiled gently and asked, "What's your surname, sir?"
The young man quickly said, "My surname is Zhang. You can just call me Xiao Zhang!"
"Director Zhang, you've worked hard …" Xia Ruofei said.
Xiao Zhang quickly said, "You flatter me. Mr. Xia, I'm just an errand boy. Please don't kill me …"
Xia Ruofei and Zhao Yongjun looked at each other and said with a smile, "Then I'll call you Xiao Zhang! Don't call me Mr. Xia. Usually, people younger than me call me Brother Xia! "
"Okay, okay, okay! Brother Xia! "Xiao Zhang immediately changed his way of addressing him.
He was originally in charge of receiving people, so he was naturally smooth and slick when it came to dealing with people.
Xiao Zhang continued, "Brother Xia, I've already booked two speedboats. Let's not take the ferry. We can just take the speedboat. We can also take a few laps around the island to see the scenery, then we can go for lunch. What do you think?"
The main reason was that Xia Ruofei and the others had decided to go to Gulangyu for lunch at the last minute. The hotel needed some time to prepare, and the experience of taking the speedboat was naturally much better than taking the ferry. When the time came, they could let the speedboat make a few more laps, and the time would naturally be bought.
Xia Ruofei readily said, "I'm fine with it! I'll listen to your arrangements when we get here! "
"That's good!" Xiao Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Everyone, this way please!"
Chen Xi and the other girls had been studying at Heron Island for half a year, so naturally, they had been to Gulangyu more than once. However, every time, they took the cheap ferry back and forth. They were not willing to spend money to rent a speedboat, so when they heard this, they were very excited.
The group of people followed Xiao Zhang to the dock. There were many speedboats parked next to the big ferry, each of which could seat six or seven people. Two of the speedboats had boards attached to them, waiting for Xia Ruofei and the others to board.
Xia Ruofei made a simple allocation. Lin Qiao and the other girls were naturally on the same boat as him. He also asked Song Rui to come along, so there were a total of six people on the same boat. Xiao Zhang was arranged to go with Zhao Yongjun and the others, so there were also six people.
