Chapter 111 Part 1

After leaving Wang Xu and Zhou Jing who needed to be silenced, Jiang Cheng never expected that he would encounter someone else who needed to be silenced in such a distant place.

Moreover, this was someone he had only met for the second time.

Because Zhao Ke was holding up his phone to let him scan the code, the two of them were standing quite close. At this distance, with Jiang Cheng's abilities as a top student, even if Zhao Ke didn't want to look, he could see the large lock screen picture and desktop background clearly.

In that instant, he didn't know if he should say something or pretend nothing was wrong and continue to open WeChat and add him as a friend.

Perhaps it was because he had seen Gu Fei's photos continuously, his longing for Gu Fei was churning intensely right now.

"This is my..." he started to say.

This is my boyfriend, a very handsome, cute, steady teenager.

But in the second before he said those three words, he choked up again.

This was a strange environment, facing a roommate who was basically a stranger, he didn't know what kind of personality this person had, didn't know if he could accept something like this... Just saying it recklessly seemed very much like shamelessly flaunting his relationship everywhere.

"Classmate?" Zhao Ke filled in an answer for him when he choked up.

A classmate.

But calling Gu Fei just a classmate behind someone's back, he couldn't accept that.

"Friend?" Zhao Ke asked again, "Crush? Idol?"

In the time Jiang Cheng was choking up, Zhao Ke quickly provided several options for him to choose from. At this moment, Jiang Cheng sincerely appreciated Zhao Ke's high EQ.

If he hadn't spoken up first, Zhao Ke definitely wouldn't have asked.

"He's my boyfriend," Jiang Cheng said.

The moment he said those three words, Jiang Cheng felt a sense of relief throughout his body.

Damn the consequences, now that he had said it, he didn't need to hide it anymore. After all, they would be spending several years together in the same room.

"Oh," Zhao Ke acknowledged it with a sound, "The one who came with you yesterday?"

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded. Zhao Ke's voice was still calm, but his facial expression showed that he was a little surprised. Jiang Cheng cleared his throat, "Sorry, if you mind..."

"I don't really accept it," Zhao Ke said.

Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat, prepared to turn around and go back to the dorm.

"But I don't mind," Zhao Ke said. "It doesn't really have anything to do with me anyway."

"Oh," Jiang Cheng looked at him.

"Go ahead and scan," Zhao Ke cut off the topic decisively. He lowered his head to swipe at his phone a few times, then held it out in front of him. "Do you want a campus guide? I can send it to you."

"Sure," Jiang Cheng scanned the code and added Zhao Ke.

Zhao Ke's WeChat nickname was just Zhao Ke, so there was no need to add a note.

Jiang Cheng wanted to let Gu Fei know that he had come out to his roommate in a completely unguarded situation, but he hadn't found a chance yet.

Zhao Ke kept acting like a tour guide, explaining every building they saw.

From the specialty dishes in the cafeteria to the history of a certain building, he could even talk about the developmental history of the dormitory building. Jiang Cheng was a little impressed - he had been thinking of coming here since middle school, but he hadn't researched the campus structure in such detail.

"If I didn't know better, I'd think you'd been studying here for years," Jiang Cheng said.

"I just read about it when I was bored and remembered it all," Zhao Ke said. "The library is up ahead, let's go take a look?"

"Sure," Jiang Cheng nodded.

"This library is new. It's said the old one was always crowded, you had to line up to get a seat..." Zhao Ke stopped mid-sentence, eyes looking ahead.

Jiang Cheng also looked forward. He could see students walking into the library ahead, quite a few people, but he didn't know who Zhao Ke was looking at.

When a long-haired girl facing their direction raised her hand to brush her hair back and glanced this way, Zhao Ke suddenly seemed to have teleportation abilities - before Jiang Cheng could react, he was already standing behind a tree two meters away.

"Hm?" Jiang Cheng was shocked by his speed and stood frozen in place.

The long-haired girl at the library entrance was still looking this way. From this distance, it was hard to say if she could see Zhao Ke standing behind the tree, but it was very easy for her to see him standing here like an idiot.

After the girl shielded her eyes from the sun and glanced this way a couple times, she laughed. Then she waved at them.

Jiang Cheng turned to look at Zhao Ke.

Zhao Ke was leaning sideways against the tree trunk, expressionlessly looking back at him, like a stranger who had been paralyzed - a complete stranger.

Jiang Cheng could basically figure out what was going on. To repay Zhao Ke's respect for his sexual orientation, he gritted his teeth and waved back at the girl.

The girl's laugh made her double over.

Jiang Cheng persisted in standing there taking the heat until the girl laughed and went into the library. Then he turned to Zhao Ke, "She went in."

Only then did Zhao Ke come out from behind the tree, taking out his phone and turning to walk back while saying, "That's the library, I'm sure we'll come here every day so let's not go in for now. Let's go check out the coffee shops now, there are a lot of coffee shops..."

Jiang Cheng could only helplessly follow him back.

"That was my older sis's high school classmate just now," Zhao Ke said.

"Oh," Jiang Cheng acknowledged.

"She's also in the law school, first year graduate student," Zhao Ke said, then added as an afterthought, "My goddess."

"Ah," Jiang Cheng looked at him.

"Do you think she saw me just now?" Zhao Ke turned to ask.

"She doesn't know me, if she didn't see you, why would she laugh and wave at me like that?" Jiang Cheng felt a little speechless.

"She laughed?" Zhao Ke asked again.

"Yeah, laughed very happily," Jiang Cheng answered.

"Really very happily?" Zhao Ke asked again.

"Let me tell you," Jiang Cheng looked at him, "Generally when people laugh at an idiot, they laugh very happily."

"That's good then," Zhao Ke nodded, "I'll buy you coffee."

The train station looked the same as always. Gu Fei followed the crowd out, took out his phone and sent Jiang Cheng a message.

- I'm off the train

Jiang Cheng replied very quickly, practically instant.

- Did Li Yan and the others get there?

- Waiting for me outside, already ordered food

- At the cafeteria? With Zhao Ke?

- Yeah, handsome Zhao Ke

Gu Fei smiled and sent an audio message: "What should I do if my boyfriend bullies me?"

"Your boyfriend has something to tell you in a bit," Jiang Cheng sent back an indistinct audio message in a lowered voice.
