Chapter 56 - Boys and Girls in Love (1/2)

“What’s wrong with you?”

Chen Da Qiang saw Meng Fan dragging his gloomy figure back and moved aside immediately. If Meng Fan really fell over, it would pose a threat to his life, and he’d be unable to support him. Seeing Meng Fan plop down on his bed; he let out a sigh, then with concern in his voice, skeptically asked him, “Did you just come back from streaming in Song Cheng? Why do you look like you want to die, what happened?”

“A word…” Remembering Zhang Zhou Wei’s phone call, Meng Fan begrudgingly swallowed his words and shook his head. “I’m too exhausted to say more, I’m gonna rest for a bit and go for a run.”

Chen Da Qiang pointed towards the window. “It’s already past six o’ clock, the sun’s about to set. You’re still going to run? Take a day off.”

Thinking of all the food he had been fed in Song Cheng, Meng Fan shook his head. “There are still lights when it’s dark, plus I’m not streaming tonight.”

“Then do you want me to bring you some dinner?”

Chen Da Qiang had already eaten, and seeing Meng Fan’s stream in Song Cheng decided that he wouldn’t be back anytime soon, so he didn’t bring any food back.

Meng Fan shook his head again. “There are fruits, that’ll be enough for now.”

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

Chen Da Qiang asked once again, worried. Meng Fan shook his head once more. He stood up abruptly, changing into his running clothes and headed out.

“What triggered you? You look like you’ve been assaulted!”

Chen Da Qiang didn’t understand. He shook his head and left the dorm as well, closing the door behind him. Shortly after leaving, he turned back and checked again to make sure that it had been locked before heading downstairs.

The relationship between Chen Da Qiang and Wei Zhi Xue had progressed very fast. It had a lot to do with Chen Da Qiang’s calm composure during the confrontation with Wei Zhi Xue’s ex-boyfriend, Zhao Zhang Gui.

Girls. They always want to find a reliable boyfriend.

There were many ways of being reliable; one of which being materialistic dependability, another being spiritually reliability and bringing pleasant experiences to daily life—and of course, the pleasures brought by physical intimacy was an important form of reliability as well. But to not only be responsible in key moments but also be able to take it while protecting your woman’s dignity was a very important aspect on its own.

It was normal to see very brave people and upfront regularly but cave in the face of responsibility.

Throughout a relationship, if a key point in time hasn’t been experienced, some people may never know what kind of absurdity could happen in a crucial moment.

Wei Zhi Xue felt lucky that she and Chen Da Qiang could encounter such an experience with Zhao Zhang Gui. Chen Da Qiang’s reaction to him had been beyond satisfactory, even after she discovered that the man was as thick as an iron tower had been Chen Da Qiang’s dorm mate.

Even Wei Zhi Xue felt that the iron hero’s actions were very interesting and loyal. He didn’t rely on his physical advantage and adhere directly to help Chen Da Qiang scare away Zhao Zhang Gui, but rather acted as an audience and stopped Zhao Zhang Gui’s two followers, allowing Da Qiang to defend his girl.

He had not only protected Chen Da Qiang’s safety but his dignity as well.

Later, from the point of view of the thief they had caught, the iron hero was indeed found to be an interesting but righteous person.

Of course, Chen Da Qiang did not know that Wei Zhi Xue knew of his roommate’s status with Meng Fan.

The moon rises above the willow tree, at dusk he had a tryst with me. Humanity is built upon give and take.

This had been the portrayal of their date tonight, only the willows were not present.

The date was simple, the couple held hands and walked through the campus talking all the way as if they really lived out the ideal life mentioned in songs and poems.

“Look at that guy.”

Enjoying the wonderful sound of Wei Zhi Xue’s voice and her delicate hands, Chen Da Qiang didn’t realize they had already arrived at the track field.

The person she was pointing to was undoubtedly Meng Fan.

There were quite a lot of people on the track, but nobody stood out more than Meng Fan.
