Chapter 585 - This Is the Answer I’d Like To Hear (2/2)
“But… you are always playing games in the dorm. No one could discover you even if you had all those good qualities. I remember you set up a club when you started your freshman year. And you joined the movie club as well. Why haven’t you gone there recently?” “Tiger Shark is an online club. We do everything via the internet, like sharing games and anime clips. Besides, there are no girls in the club too. Counting on Tiger Shark to find a girlfriend for me is the same as counting on the Mongolian Navy to regain Hawaii. As for the movie club…” Chen Huadong sighed, “It’s even more meaningless. All the seniors there are arrogant and disrespectful. They are there to get a girlfriend as well, and I’m afraid if I stay there, I will become one of them too.”
“You post on the internet every day to look for uncensored anime. I didn’t know you possessed such a high-level thinking process.”
“Those two things are unrelated!” Chen Huadong said in a huff. “Relying on their advantage as senior to bully others is wrong! When they find out that a girl has a boyfriend, they will figure out a way to split them up. I’m not like them.”
“Oh? Who are those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who would do something so unethical?”
“Forget it; let’s not talk about them,” replied Chen Huadong with an eager wave of the hand.
“Come on. Then, no one can save you anymore. You refuse to socialize even after our lengthy advice. You will keep feeling sorry for yourself in the dorm alone,” harrumphed Wei Jiangyang.
Chen Huadong himself felt how hard the loneliness had hit him. He put his hands behind his back. Standing under the clothes hangers on the balcony, he let out a long sigh.
Zhang Heng thought for a while and said, “Two days ago, Asuka Hayase told me that she has a female junior of hers who likes anime had just arrived in China and wants to find like-minded Chinese friends to practice her Chinese. Would you like to give it a try?”
“What the h.e.l.l?! Why are you so cruel to me?! I just want to find a girlfriend. I don’t want to develop an unforgettable long-distance relations.h.i.+p and contribute to the friends.h.i.+p between China and j.a.pan!” “Then let me ask Xiao Wu, who stays at the opposite dormitory. He seems to be an ACG fan, too. He is also the vice president of Tiger Shark. I think he can go well with Asuka Hayase’s female junior.”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t!” Chen Huadong became anxious when he heard Zhang Heng’s suggestion, “…Xiao Wu, he… he, he has someone he likes. I’ll do it. I will consider it as making a new friend. Anyway, I have always wanted to be friends with a real j.a.panese girl.”
“Hasn’t Xiao Wu been single for some time? When did he get a crush… and why do you sound so awkward,” Wei Jiangyang raised his head and asked curiously.
“I will inform Asuka Hayase about it,” Zhang Heng said, “Don’t forget your promise.”
“I will not let that happen. From now on, I am willing to become a bridge to build a better friends.h.i.+p between the two countries,” Chen Huadong proclaimed confidently.
After hearing the good news, he finally regained his vigor. He was so happy that he decided to stop playing his mobile games. Instead, he went to the library to learn j.a.panese, and Zhang Heng even recommended him two introductory textbooks.
“This guy finally decided to do something right. Although he didn’t talk about it, I can see that he took a big blow from that breakup with Xu Jing. It would be a great opportunity to come out of it, and he could even learn j.a.panese.” Wei Jiangyang looked at Chen Huadong’s back as he walked out of the door. He said, “We are not like you. Our language talent is not as good as you. Not only have you achieve the sixth grade faster and 700 points, but you have also learned j.a.panese quietly. And now you are starting to learn Finnish. Give us a break, man.”
Zhang Heng hummed casually and sent a message to Asuka Hayase to tell her about it. He then swiped through his contact list and saw Fan Meinan, whom he had no spoken to for some time. He hesitated but still decided not to send her any messages since she told him that she was fine. That was why he did not want to ask the same question again.
Then, Zhang Heng put his cell phone away and picked up the “Finnish Grammar” again.
