"These two funny guys…" Lou Cheng was amused by the messages and replied Old Qiu first.
"Needn't kneel down in front of me, for I have nothing to do with it. (shrugging emoji) You should kneel down in front of my master, Coach Shi of the Martial Arts Club. He's exactly the junior brother of Mo Jingting's master's master."
He explained the origin of their relationship with a tongue twister.
Qiu Zhigao texted him again with an emoji blinking the eyes before he could close the dialog box. "Is she, is she so beautiful as we see on the television?"
Some popular stars were too horrible to look at in reality.
"Do you, a strong man, feel yourself disgusting while using such an emoji and such a soft tone?" Lou Cheng replied with a vomiting emoji as they usually did in their dorm. Then he added, "Not so bad, not far away from her usual appearance."
Mo Jingting was in her golden time now as an energetic young girl, who didn't need any decoration or makeup.
"What's her real characteristics?" Old Qiu continued to ask, ignoring what Lou Cheng had said just now.
After thinking for a while, Lou Cheng began typing quickly, "She's quite outgoing."
Of course, she was also calculating and capable, but Old Qiu needed not know that since he would have no chance to have contact with Mo Jingting. Just let the girl leave a good impression in Old Qiu's mind.
Besides, it was not good to gossip behind one's back, and Old Qiu was not Ke to whom Lou Cheng wouldn't hide anything while chatting.
"So, in reality, she is just like the one we see on the television?" Qiu Zhigao replied excitedly.
Lou Cheng ignored him and closed the dialogue box to check Qin Mo's message. He sent a giggling emoji and replied, "As the saying goes, sometimes it's enough for you to admire someone's good reputation instead of checking it by yourself. Why not keep your fantastic imagination to yourself, since the reality would usually be disappointing?"
He declined Qin Mo's request as meeting Mo Jingting. On the one hand, it was not polite for him to bring Qin Mo without asking for Mo Jingting's permission, on the other hand, he didn't want to owe the girl something for giving his friend an opportunity.
"Could you say something I could understand? Do you mean a real Mo Jingting will let me down? Just answer my question, is she as beautiful as what she looks on television?Are her eyes still attractive as usual? Is she still good at acting cute?" Qin Mo asked.
"These descriptions quite suit her." Lou Cheng said honestly, "but on the other respects…"
"I have nothing to do with the other respects since I'm not going to marry her! I just set her as a model and don't care too much about the other things. It seems that I won't get disappointed!" Qin Mo replied with a "despise" emoji.
"You beast..." Lou Cheng was speechless.
You are not a qualified fan!
At half past nine this night, after sending Yan Zheke back to her dormitory, Lou Cheng went back to his 2#302 dorm in No.7 dormitory while thinking about Ke's birthday arrangement.
Pushing the door open, he saw Qiu Zhigao and Qin Mo sitting on the sofa and there was a Martial Arts Competition broadcasting on the television in front of them.
"Haven't you played the online game?" Lou Cheng was surprised and asked casually.
Qin Mo gave him a big smile while pushing back up his gold-rimmed spectacles. "I felt too tired and hungry to play the game. Cheng, do you like to have a midnight snack with me? Barbecue, it's my treat!"
Though the cafeteria and the restaurants on the campus were all closed at this time, there was a night market nearby and most of the students had a takeaway app on their cell phone. Besides, the new campus area of Songcheng University was separated from the outside with the iron railing instead of the wall, and the lunch box could be easily passed through the railing gap.
But large lunch box containing dishes in bulk was still unable to be passed through the gap. Once a student ordered some pickled vegetable with fish that counted dozens of yuan, and the restaurant packed it in a giant plastic bow that was too large for the narrow railing gap. That poor guy was so worried that he almost wanted to stretch his arms out to eat the dish while singing a prison song.
Fortunately, that case had a happy ending. That deliveryman was an amateur martial artist and quickly climbed over the railing with the lunch box without even spilling a drop of the soup. From then on all the students were taught a good lesson, it was good for them to learn martial arts!"
"No, eating at this time would affect the quality of sleep." Lou Cheng refused politely.
"Okay, we're going to eat and you stay in the dorm." Qiu Zhigao smiled, "I've fetched some hot water for you and you needn't do it yourself."
"Don't act like this. You must want to get something from me!" Lou Cheng questioned him jokingly instead of replying politely.
"I just want to share the honor of the junior master." Qin Mo played a joke.
"Cheng, I don't want you to do anything difficult. Just ask her for some autographs." Old Qiu begged shamelessly.
"Okay okay, if I get the opportunity." Lou Cheng shook his head, feeling it ridiculous.
Anyway, I'm also a famous weibo user, why don't you fawn over me!
When Lou Cheng finished his lessons the next afternoon, he received Mo Jingting's message.
"Junior master, I'm on the bus heading for your school~"
"Okay, we will meet you at the bus station." Lou Cheng stressed the word "we" and told Yan Zheke about this immediately.
Yan Zheke replied with a lovely-sitting emoji. "I'm now in my dorm dressing myself, just come and wait for me out of the building."
"What? Why not ask me to wait on the Long Bridge?"Lou Cheng found it interesting and soon replied, "Okay!"
It seems that Ke takes it seriously for she even went back to dress herself…
Er, she once said that girls would always take it more seriously when they were going to see the other girls…
After more than twenty minutes, Lou Cheng, who was waiting outside of the No.3 dormitory finally saw his fairy.
Yan Zheke put on simple make-up this time and dressed like a gentle and delicate girl. Lou Cheng immediately lost himself in her elegant and refined beauty.
"What are you staring at? Let's go." The girl complained softly.
Turning his gaze, Lou Cheng took the girl's hand in his and smiled, "I'm staring at my fairy~"
Though he would see Ke every day, he was still stunned by her beauty just now. What a pity that she seldom took any dates seriously.
"Hum!" Yan Zheke turned her gaze up while lifting the corners of her mouth without saying anything.
On their way to the bus station, there were many people attracted by the girl and even the winter dusk was lit up by the gorgeous figure.
Not long after they arrived at the bus station, they saw Mo Jingting approached the door of a school bus.
She was wearing a sunglass that covered almost half of her face, which made her noticeable in the dusk. She seemed to have spent much time dressing herself as stressing her tall figure and long legs. Her plump lips were like shining diamonds.
Mo Jingting soon noticed Yan Zheke before getting off the bus and was also stunned by the beauty even she was also a girl.
Comparing with Mo Jingting, Yan Zheke behaved much more calmly since she usually saw the girl in all kinds of appearances on the screen. She just felt a little jealous of Mo Jingting's height while greeting her with a polite smile.
When the two girls looked into each other's eyes, Lou Cheng felt as if sparks were flying off in all directions.
"Let's go to the restaurant first, it's not a good place for us to chat." He took a step forward and said.
Witnessed by the passing students, Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke were walking on hand in hand, while Mo Jingting was following them behind and looking at their hands.
After seating themselves in a box in the Academy Cafeteria and waiting for all the dishes to be served. Mo Jingting took off her sunglass and looked at the couple in front of her with her misty eyes, which were always filled with emotions. "Junior master's girlfriend is so beautiful, no wonder he never turned gaze at other girls. What should I call you? Junior aunt? It sounds like an aged woman."
"Yan Zheke, just call me Zheke." Ke smiled gently, showing her dimples.
"Are you a disciple of Shushan Study?" Mo Jingting asked curiously while supporting her chin with one hand.
"So I am. How do you know it?" Yan Zheke was surprised.
My surname is Yan and my birthplace in the household register is Xiushan. Though I'm able to use Yin-yang Twist, no one could identify it. Has she investigated my data in school? But it's still hard for her to associate me with Shushan Study after doing that.
Mo Jingting glanced over at Lou Cheng with a smile. "Junior uncle told me something about you."
I didn't mention it!" Lou Cheng blurted to clarify it before Yan Zheke turned her gaze at him.
Normal people would think about whether they have said it before defending themselves. Junior uncle's reaction was quite unexpected! Mo Jingting found the whole thing going out of her control.
"Are you sure you have never said that? Maybe you forget it?" Yan Zheke was looking at her boyfriend with tilting lips.
Lou Cheng coughed and said, "It was my master who told her. Our conversation at that time left a deep impression on me and I suddenly recall it. He said I needed not to join in Wuyue Club, since he would be even happier to see me be a special coach in Longhu Club or marry myself into Shushan Study."
He repeated Old Shi's words deliberately to amuse his fairy.
"Haha… marry into Shushan Study… it sounds like you are going to marry my brother…" Yan Zheke burst out laughing with flushing face and watery eyes. She had intended to make a joke and change the topic, but the new topic seemed to be more interesting and she even began trembling out of joy.
So funny!
While Yan Zheke and Lou Cheng began showing off their relationship, Mo Jingting, who totally integrated into the background, picked up the tea cup to take a drink, feeling herself miserable as being stuffed with the other's romance.
I should not have come here… She thought helplessly, being enlightened at the same time that it was because she had done something wrong that junior uncle was distant.
They were passionately in love and no one else was able to disturb them. Her flirting Lou Cheng could only make him unhappy and the more frequently she tried to fawn over him, the more unpopular she would be in front of him…
She should have taken other watered-down measures since she didn't really want to flirt with Lou Cheng. It might be better for her to be a real junior nephew…
Having changed her mind, Mo Jingting immediately changed her attitude and began talking with Yan Zheke actively instead of focusing on Lou Cheng.
Having spent several years in showbiz, though she might be not mature and rational as Yan Zheke in some aspect, she was a better mixer compared with these two who lacked experience. When she turned to topic to the secret of other stars in showbiz, both Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke soon relaxed their vigilance as being attracted to her words. Finally, the dinner ended in harmony.
It was told by a famous star instead of an entertainment journalist!
Everyone liked to gossip to some extent!
"I can't believe it that he should be a bottom…" Yan Zheke was astonished when it came to a male star.
"Bisexuals are quite normal in this showbiz, and we are even used to someone's dirty deeds. You'll be an alien if you get excited over everything," Mo Jingting sighed with emotion, "If I didn't have a sect background and my sect were to some extent influential in the showbiz, I wouldn't have resisted all those temptations and threats."
She dared not to ask for Lou Cheng's promises but kept looking at the two in front eagerly in the hope that what she said could leave an impression on them. Once she suffered from this, she might be able to turn to her junior uncle when he reached high-ranked Dan Stage or even became physical invulnerability and got a very powerful voice in the Sect.
As expected, Lou Cheng only sighed the chaos in the showbiz instead of making any promised casually.
Tidying up her mood, Mo Jingting went on talking about something interesting while suffering from the couple's romance show.
When they were about to leave, she took several tickets out from the purse and gave them to Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke.
"Junior uncle, Zheke, there are VIP tickets to my vocal concert…"
Covering her smile with one hand, she added to explain, "You are not in our circle and must feel uncomfortable being invited to the area for special guests, besides, you won't have enough chances to enjoy your date there. So I decide to give you some good seats instead."
"Thank you. Two tickets are enough for us since the others had already gotten their own." Lou Cheng said politely.
"Junior uncle, you are my elder and needn't say thank you to me." Mo Jingting said jokingly, "the others? Do some of your friends my fans?"
"Quite a lot." Lou Cheng took the opportunity to ask for Mo Jingting's signatures for Old Qiu and Qin Mo.
Smiling happily, Mo Jingting took out her memo pad, tore off two sheets of paper and signed her name on them for Qin Mo and Qiu Zhigao.
"It's much more beautiful than your signature~" Yan Zheke teased her boyfriend.
"I'm not relying on it to make a living." Lou Cheng replied with a smile and called a waiter to compute the bill after Mo Jingting had put on another pair of plain glass spectacles.
After sending this big star, who had just changed her attitude, to the school bus and waving her off, Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke exchanged a look and then sighed with relief.
"It's more tiring than a match~" Yan Zheke signed like a snuggler.
The secret war between two girls…
"Shall I knead your temples?" Lou Cheng suggested with a smile, "she learned to behave herself in front of you, it's good."
"Yeah, she's a clever girl…" Yan Zheke nodded to herself.
Chatting for a while, they move to a nearby bench. When the girl took out several tissues, Lou Cheng took them over and wiped the bench surface naturally for habit was second nature.
"How many tickets in total?" Yan Zheke asked casually.
While kneading her temples, Lou Cheng thought for a while and then answered, "Four, two for us and still two remain. Ask your roommates whether they like the concert? Both Old Qiu and The Beast have already gotten theirs."
"Okay." Yan Zheke took out her cell phone to call Li Liantong and other fellows.
Li Liantong said she wanted the ticket but she had an important lesson in Tuesday evening that couldn't and was unable to be skipped, so did Shi Xiangyang. Thus they missed the chance to go to the first day's vocal concert.
As for Zong Yanru, she disliked Mo Jingting and thought it unnecessary to go to the concert.
"None of them will come with us…" Just give them to Old Qiu and Qin Mo, the seats must be better than theirs, or maybe you can give the tickets to Talker?" Yan Zheke suggested.
"Okay." Lou Cheng began expecting to see Old Qiu's expression of gratitude.
On the school bus, Mo Jingting withdrew her smile and calmed down, losing herself in thought.
She searched for Yan Zheke's name in cell phone and then asked one of her friends in martial arts circle, "Do you know which elder in Shushan Study is Yan Zheke's master?"
"Yan Zheke? Yan? I've never heard this surname in Shushan Study. I'll ask the others…" That friend also knew little about it.
After several minutes, he replied in a serious tone, "She was the granddaughter of two grand masters in Shushan Study, Ji Jianzhang, the Heaven Leaning Sword and Dou Ning, the Seven Star."
"Heaven Leaning Sword"? "Seven Star"? Mo Jingting couldn't control her trembling wrist and dropped the cell phone onto the ground.
After taking a walk along the lakeside, Lou Cheng sent Yan Zheke to her No.3 dormitory and then came back to his own dorm in a high mood. Qin Mo and Old Qiu were discussing about the vocal concert tomorrow night in the room.
"Here you are, the signatures you want." Lou Cheng smiled while giving them the two sheets of paper.
"Signature?" Old Qiu took over the paper and was immediately stunned, "You got Jingting's signature so quickly?"
Qin Mo was able to read into Lou Cheng's words and thus got even more surprised, "You have seen her?"
Or you can't get her signature in such a short time.
"She's my martial nephew and I should treat her since she came to Songcheng. Ke and I have just had dinner with her." Lou Cheng replied frankly.
"Brother Cheng, how could you forget to bring me?" Qin Mo pretended to be so depressed while Qiu Zhigao's facial expression was also a mixture of surprise and regret.
Once I had a chance to meet my goddess and I missed it!
"She didn't want to be bothered." Lou Cheng naturally blamed Mo Jingting for all this and then take the opportunity to show the remaining two VIP tickets. "She sent the tickets to me, just take them and the seats are better than yours."
"Well, well, I'll not stand on ceremony! I own you a kowtow!" Qiu Zhigao took the ticket without hesitation.
Qin Mo was also overjoyed but soon turned angry. "I wouldn't have been extorted by that ticket scalper if I knew it earlier! Do you know how much he asked for the ticket? How much?"
It was not because of the money but a point of honor!
"I don't want to know how much at all." Lou Cheng burst out laughing, "maybe you can give your original tickets to Talker and Qiang if they want to go."
Tuesday soon came. At dusk, Lou Cheng got a certification under the name of his club and bought the bus tickets to their old campus. Then he left for Mo Jingting's vocal concert with Yan Zheke, Qiu Zhigao, Qin Mo, Zhao Qiang and Cai Zongming.
"What a precious experience as skipping class…" Yan Zheke sighed with both regret and excitement while seeing the school buildings flashing back outside the bus window.
She was corrupted by Cheng!
Lou Cheng leaned over to put his arms around the girl's waist. "Your skipping class must be found," he noticed her deliberately, "everyone including the teacher will soon notice the beauty in our classroom is missing. But the teacher may not remember me since I'm plain looking."
It's the disadvantage of beauty!
"You!" Yan Zheke hit him softly, "I'm not stupid~ I've already asked for leave and you needn't worry about it, thank you!"
Ru helped her to ask for a leave and she believed in the teacher's goodwill, who mustn't say anything about it. Besides, what she skipped was not a professional lesson.
It was the advantage of beauty!
There were already many people waiting outside Sonecheng Martial Arts Gymnasium including the pedlars selling tickets, flowers and light sticks.
It was the second time for Yan Zheke to come to a concert so she was still excited. While keeping looking around and walking up and down, she acted like a child who was eager to try all the bits and pieces being sold.
"Cheng, Cheng, let's buy some light sticks. We should wave them during the concert."
"Cheng, Cheng, that pie looked delicious."
"Cheng, Cheng, just follow me. I won't bother to find you if you are missing!"
Looking at the girl with a big smile, Lou Cheng took the girl's swinging hand in his and tried every junk food with her.
It was not the concert but their date that counted!
What it was time for them to enter the gymnasium, a flower boy approached them and yelled, "Brother, brother, just buy a bunch of flower for her, she's so beautiful!"
Lou Cheng was immediately moved by his words and intended to buy some flowers.
Yan Zheke pursed her lips and turned over her hands to grasp Lou Cheng's wrist.
"Don't do this. I don't like flowers and we'd better hurry to enter the gymnasium. Let's go over there~"
Lou Cheng gave up taking out his wallet because of coach Yan's persistence. When they rushed forward and left the flower boy behind, he whispered, "What's wrong with that? Though the flowers were a little expensive, what he said was right that you were so beautiful and deserved to be decorated by the flowers."
Yan Zheke explained while puffing out her cheeks.
"You men are all vain creatures who want to show off their money in front of the women and regard themselves as the real heroes. Those flower seller are exactly taking advantage of it… Hum, I don't like seeing someone fool you!"
She was acting like a female tiger protecting her kids, which warmed Lou Cheng's heart and widened his smiling mouth.
Mo Jingting kept behaving herself during the vocal concert and acting as good as she could as a singer. Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke were familiar with quite a lot of her songs and would sing to her occasionally while waving their light sticks. They even made some videos as souvenirs.
They were enjoying themselves.
"Hey, your face is larger and my face seems to become smaller while taking photos with you~" When they left the gymnasium, Yan Zheke began to review the photos they took just now while breathing the cold air at night.
"Your face is originally small." Lou Cheng covered Ke's face with his hand for comparison.
Looking around, he coughed and said,
"It's too late and we've already missed the last school bus. Old Qiu said they are going to sleep in Qin Mo's home tonight."
Shall we also stay outside school tonight?
He had been considering and expecting for this since they decided to come to the vocal concert…
"Yeah." Yan Zheke nodded like a chick picking grains, "Let's order a special car online."
What? What an unexpected answer it is? Lou Cheng was stunned.
Ke, your answer didn't make any sense!
"What's wrong with you? There's still enough time for us to get back school before lights out." Yan Zheke blinked her clear eyes with a naive expression.
"O, Okay." Lou Cheng put a stop to all his distracting thoughts and began finding a special car online. Actually he was complaining in his mind.
I hate online car-hailing!
Though there are more people waiting for taxis than usual after the concert, and though Lou Cheng was praying secretly that no one would answer his order, he was unable to resist coach Yan's good luck and a driver took their order after several minutes.
He would make more money this time since the new school campus area of Songcheng University was far away!
"What shall we do? I'm so excited upon thinking we're going to climb over the school wall~" While waiting for the taxi, Yan Zheke put both hands in Lou Cheng's and smiled excitedly.
I haven't done that kind of thing up to now!
Looking at her flushing cheeks and blinking eyes, Lou Cheng immediately forgot all the depression and replied with a smile.
"We're the Naughty Two!"
It seemed to be quite interesting as teaching his fairy to be a little mischievous.
There was no rush hour at night and the taxi stopped half an hour later. In the moonlight, Lou Cheng led Yan Zheke to find a blind corner of the monitor.
He laughed in front of the tall railing.
"I'll climb first and then pull you up."
"Okay!" Yan Zheke nodded seriously with glittering eyes.
Supporting his body with one hand and gathering strength to both foot, he suddenly jumped up and landed on the top beam of the railing steadily.
Then he bent to grasp Yan Zheke's hands and pulled the girl when she jumped towards him.
Yang Zheke felt her bodying flying in the air for a short moment before landing on the railing, which made her eyes brighter.
"It's so funny~!"
She began walking back and forth on the railing while balancing herself with both arms, seemingly shaky but actually steady.
Lou Cheng followed her with one hand in pocket. He stared at the girl's beautiful back and black hair, which was glittering in the moonlight, greedily, trying to keep all these in mind forever.
Then he stepped heavily onto the railing with a smile.
On the other side, Yan Zheke was about to take another step forward when the railing shacked suddenly and she immediately lost balance.
Instead of screaming out of fear, she activated her backbone and strengthened her muscles unconsciously, intending to straighten herself.
At this moment, an arm appeared around her waist and pulled her back without taking too many efforts. Then she touched a familiar chest.
"You are always being up to mischief…" Yan Zheke soon realized what had happened and hit Lou Cheng out of anger, joy, and excitement.
Before she could finish speaking, her mouth was blocked by Lou Cheng's with his warmth and tenderness.
Taking a glance at the ground below, Yan Zheke slowly closed her eyes and hugged Lou Cheng while telling herself it was a dream and she could do anything she wanted.
A passing-by cloud blocked the moon temporarily.
Approaching her dorm at a brisk pace, Yan Zheke stopped outside the door to check if her face was still flushing before entering the room.
"Ke, why do you come back?" Li Liantong turned to look at her in surprise.
"Why can't I come back?" Yan Zheke was looking dumb.
"You must missed the last school bus after the vocal concert. Hey hey, at this time, a man would suggest relaxing in a nearby hotel and went back to school the next day. Well, he would order two rooms at first but finally remain in the girl's shamelessly. He usually says he won't do anything but to sleep with you in his arms… 'I'll just touch you but won't do anything else…" Li Liantong's topic began to become dirty.
"Stop!" Yan Zheke interrupted her with flushing face, "can't you be more pure?"
She suddenly recalled that Lou Cheng had mentioned the last us and Old Qiu's sleeping outside school deliberately.
He, he wanted me to stay outside?
No wonder his reaction was strange then…
Li Liantong went on to ask her jokingly, "Didn't you Cheng intend to do this? I can't believe in!"
"He, he just said there was no school bus." Yan Zheke replied in embarrassment.
"What? Then how did you answer him?" Li Liantong and Shi Xiangyang were both interested in it.
"I said, I said Let's order a special car…" Yan Zheke turned her gaze aside.
"Order a special car, ha ha ha, what a perfect answer, I admire you so much!" The three listeners all burst out laughing while padding heavily onto the bed and table.
Yan Zheke felt even more embarrassed because of their laughter and began gnashing her teeth secretly.
I didn't find the implied meaning in his words!
I just wanted to offer a convenient solution!
Hum, I must be infected by Cheng and become a stupid Ke now!
