734: Chapter 735 Freeloading Man 20_1 734: Chapter 735 Freeloading Man 20_1 The two, satiated from their al, arrived at the supermarket together.
While Xia Yuanji was topping up his card, Song Lei picked out so snacks and water.
Xia Yuanji estimated his previous expenses and said, “Top it up with five thousand.”
What?
The figure that the supermarket owner blurted out left him stunned.
Ever since al cards had been introduced, the largest top-up amount was only a thousand.
But this custor wanted to add five thousand, which greatly alard him.
“Five thousand?”
Xia Yuanji humd an affirmation, “Yes, five thousand.”
The owner was more than happy to oblige if the custor wanted to add more and quickly topped up the card.
After Xia Yuanji received his al card, he casually strolled through the supermarket, picking up a few items and naturally lined up behind Song Lei.
“Let’s pay together.” Then he handed over his card.
Song Lei knew he was wealthy and didn’t quibble over these matters.
“Thanks.”
Xia Yuanji took the shopping bags, “Shall we take a walk around the sports field?”
“Sure.”
And so, everyone watched as the two left.
When they could no longer see their backs, soone remarked, “They really make a good couple.”
“Indeed, much better than Chiang Yi.”
“Forget about it, Chiang Yi is nothing compared to him,” said with a face full of disdain, a stark contrast to the shy expressions when Chiang Yi was ntioned before.
“People used to say that Xia Yuanji was living off won just like Chiang Yi, but turns out he’s actually richer.”
In the school, there were a few who could top up their al cards with five thousand in one go, but the way Xia Yuanji acted, five thousand to him seed like no big deal at all.
Chiang Yi sat in a corner eating, having not eaten much for lunch.
If he didn’t eat his fill, he wondered how he’d endure the afternoon classes.
Unexpectedly, there he was, and still, he couldn’t avoid them.
He had thought that Xia Yuanji, who used Song Lei’s al card during lunch, might not have much money; yet unexpectedly, he too was wealthy.
Chiang Yi, overhearing the surrounding discussions, lowered his head, deep in thought.
Could it be that he really had no chance with Song Lei?
Chiang Yi sighed softly, drawing the attention of those around him.
They had all been happily gossiping, but no one expected Chiang Yi to be there.
They were stunned, unsure why he was there, and started to recall if they had said anything too offensive.
After a long thought, it seed that nothing too excessive had been said, and even if there was, it was just the truth.
Relieved, the group decided to move on, “Let’s head to the sports field.”
“Exactly, Xia Yuanji is really handso, and soone has already checked; before he ca here, he was at…”
The group, sharing rumors that had passed through many hands, left Chiang Yi with an even more awkward expression as he heard their discussions.
Of course, he knew about that school; though located in another place, its reputation was indeed significant.
He hadn’t expected Xia Yuanji to be a transferee from there.
Chiang Yi really couldn’t understand.
Having already attended that school, why didn’t he simply go abroad to study?
Why bother transferring back here?
It was incomprehensible.
Could it be an arranged marriage between wealthy families?
Thinking of this, Chiang Yi’s face paled.
Yes, how could he forget?
Isn’t that what wealthy families like to do?
If there really was an arranged marriage, Song Lei truly wouldn’t have a say in the matter, and neither could Chiang Yi dissuade her.
What if both families united against his?
And what exactly did the Song Family and Xia Family do for business?
Chiang Yi was quite curious.
Despite Song Lei’s pursuit, he had never inquired about her family’s business out of dislike.
Chiang Yi truly regretted not asking more about it before.
By knowing about the Song Family, he could have also learned about the Xia Family.
Unfortunately, now it wouldn’t be easy to investigate.
Chiang Yi finished the last bite of his instant noodles and prepared to head to the classroom.
Thinking it over, he rembered they were going to stroll on the field, and decided to head to the field after all.
As he headed to the field, he saw quite a few people walking in pairs or small groups toward the academic building.
As they passed by him, Chiang Yi could distinctly feel that their glances at him carried a certain playfulness.
What’s the situation?
Did he get sothing on his face or what?
Just as Chiang Yi was wondering what the problem might be.
“Chiang Yi, are you also going to the field to watch Song Lei and Xia Yuanji?”
“If so, don’t bother—they walked around the field and now they’re heading back to the classroom.”
A male student who was on good terms with Chiang Yi lightly patted his shoulder, “Though you’re quite handso, you’re still a bit behind compared to that guy.”
“Not just a bit behind, but a big gap, a match of talented male and beautiful female.”
Ah, Chiang Yi hadn’t expected that—he was just slightly delayed, and they had already returned.
“I wasn’t going to watch them; I just wanted to take a walk on the field.
What’s wrong with that?” Chiang Yi certainly wouldn’t admit he was going to watch Song Lei and the others.
“And it’s not like you guys don’t know, I really dislike Song Lei.
Now that she has a boy around, I couldn’t be happier.”
No matter what, one must save face and definitely not show weakness.
Regarding Chiang Yi’s words, everyone just laughed, “Whatever you say.”
Then they continued passing by him, but the way they looked at him still irritated him.
Chiang Yi really wanted to say that he didn’t lack for admirers, he had many.
At this mont, he rembered the plan he had made at the end of last sester, which was only postponed due to the class advisor’s intervention, and then because of the winter break.
Now it seed that this plan could no longer be postponed, and needed to be put on the agenda.
As for the target person, he had one, but as for the specific operational thod, ah, he had really forgotten it.
But that was all right, forgetting was forgetting; the plan wasn’t important now.
What mattered was to prove that he was still Chiang Yi, a guy who absolutely didn’t lack girls chasing after him.
He would definitely let everyone know that without Song Lei, he was still the sa him.
Xia Yuanji returned to his seat, “Let see your test paper.”
The scores for two subjects had already been announced in the morning, and the teacher had briefly gone through them.
There were so difficult questions that most students in the regular classes didn’t understand, and the teacher hadn’t explained them.
Song Lei just happened to not know how to do one question and had asked Xia Yuanji earlier, who had simply outlined the thought process.
“You apply the formula like this…” Xia Yuanji quickly explained a thod that any average person could use to solve the problem with a standard formulaic approach.
Upon hearing this, Song Lei knew the process was a bit lengthy, but following his analysis and solving the problem, she found the question wasn’t as difficult as it seed.
“Get it?” Xia Yuanji asked.
Song Lei nodded her head continuously, “Got it, got it.”
“There’s another quicker way to solve it.” While saying there was another thod, Xia Yuanji had actually proposed two more ways of solving the problem.
Song Lei listened, flabbergasted.
She understood the first thod, the second too, but when it ca to the third, she was lost.
“Forget it, knowing two thods is good enough.” Xia Yuanji quickly jotted down a problem on his scratch paper, “You try this one.”
Song Lei looked at it and asked, “Similar type?”
Xia Yuanji nodded, “Only by practicing more will you know if you’ve really got it.”
