Chapter 22: Classmates and Roommates
Su Ling and Gu Manting walked a long way along the road before they happened to stop a taxi and rushed to the city.
Ten o'clock in the evening.
It's late for the average small town, but Hongcheng has just started its nightlife.
The bright street lights, dazzling neon lights, car lights on the road, and the crowds of people coming and going on the streets all tell the prosperity and liveliness of Hongcheng.
Hongcheng University is one of the ten gold medal universities in the Yanhuang Empire, and its ranking is second only to Imperial Capital University.
Its location is also superb, not very far from the city.
Since Gu Manting studied at Hongcheng University, she asked the taxi to stop at the school gate.
In the vicinity of the school, there are not only restaurants and restaurants, but also many large and small hotels, which are just suitable for overnight stays.
Gu Manting was very familiar with this place, and walked directly into a Chinese restaurant called 'Home-cooked Side Dishes'.
The decoration of the restaurant is average, and the overall color is simple, which is more than the upper than the bottom.
There weren't many people eating at this time, so Gu Manting chose a seat by the window in the south and sat opposite Su Ling.
The waiter was quite enthusiastic, and when he saw the guests seated, someone came to greet them.
Gu Manting skillfully ordered a few signature dishes, and the waiter retreated.
But as soon as she finished ordering, Gu Manting twisted her head to the window, didn't look at Su Ling, and didn't talk to him.
Su Ling was very puzzled, since they came out of Longjiang Bijing, Gu Manting's mood was not very good, and she was angry at every turn, as if she wanted to break off with him.
Su Ling didn't know where to offend Gu Manting at all.
In order to figure out the reason, Su Ling coughed lightly twice, breaking the quiet atmosphere, before asking, "That...... Miss Gu, are you unhappy?"
Gu Manting's eyes kept looking out the window: "Don't talk to me!"
Su Ling smiled bitterly: "What's wrong with you, as if you have eaten explosives?"
Gu Manting turned around and glared at Su Ling: "It has nothing to do with you whether I eat explosives or not! I don't want to pay attention to you anyway!"
Su Ling stubbornly asked, "Did I provoke you somewhere?"
"You...... What an elm pimple!" Gu Manting is really convinced, what is this man in his head? He is obviously angry because of his relationship with Duanmu Xue, but he doesn't know it yet, his emotional intelligence is really low.
"Okay, okay, if I made you unhappy somewhere, then I'm here to say I'm sorry, okay?" Although he didn't know the reason, Su Ling still wanted to apologize.
"No!" Gu Manting was even more angry, "Anyway, don't talk to me!"
"......" Su Ling was speechless for a moment, but thinking about it, he didn't know where he had made Gu Manting unhappy.
Although the atmosphere was awkward, time was still flowing.
After a few moments, the waiter brought a few cooked dishes.
Gu Manting didn't say a word, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate a lot.
Helpless, Su Ling could only eat along.
I don't know if it's because I've been hungry all day today, Su Ling feels that the food here is particularly delicious.
Not to mention meat dishes, even the vegetables are fragrant and delicious, and people salivate when they eat them.
"Manting, you're eating supper here too?"
Just when Su Ling lowered his head and was eating seriously, a woman's surprised voice suddenly came.
Hearing this, the other party seemed to know Gu Manting.
Su Ling turned his head and saw a girl who was not much different in age from Gu Manting holding a tall, thin boy in a suit, these two looked like a couple.
The person who spoke just now was this girl.
Gu Manting also saw this young girl, but she didn't seem to like these two people very much, just out of politeness, she nodded with a smile: "I didn't expect you to go back to school so early?"
Today is almost a week before the start of school, and it is indeed early to return to school.
"Well, it's okay to be idle at home, so I'll come to school first. The young girl replied, then looked at Su Ling and asked, "Who is this little brother?"
"I don't know!" Gu Manting was still angry, her answer made everyone feel a little embarrassed, would people who didn't know sit together to eat? Obviously, this is impossible.
Su Ling saw that the aim was wrong, so he quickly stood up and stretched out his right hand: "Hello, I am a friend of Miss Gu, my name is Su Ling, Su from Suzhou, Ling Ling." ”
It's just that this young girl didn't mean to shake hands with Su Ling, but glanced at Su Ling up and down, frowned, showed a touch of disgust, looked at Gu Manting, and said, "I said Manting, as the number one school flower in our Hongcheng University, how could you get together with such a hillbilly?"
Scolding yourself for being a hillbilly?
Su Ling was suddenly unhappy, and decided to teach this girl a lesson, so she held back her anger and asked, "Who are you?
"Oh oh oh! I forgot to introduce myself!" the young girl raised her voice, "My name is Zuo Ling, I am Manting's classmate and roommate, and as her good friend, I naturally want to remind her that she should make some friends that she can make, as for you, a countryman, there is no need to make friends!"
Su Ling said unceremoniously: "What about you, relying on your own good looks, just seduce men here?"
Zuo Ling said proudly: "What's the drop, my man is 10,000 times better than you, right?"
"Really?" Su Ling stared at Zuo Ling's boyfriend with a pair of eyes, but seeing that this kid's face was pale, his lips were black, and his breathing was rough, this was a sign of physical weakness, and he couldn't help but raise his head and laugh, "Hahaha! You don't mean that your boyfriend's kung fu on the boat is 10,000 times stronger than mine, right?"
"You ......" Zuo Ling didn't expect Su Ling to be so nasty, but she didn't want to admit defeat, she raised her head and snorted coldly, "That's right! My boyfriend is like a rooster in that regard, and none of you are his opponent!"
"Then you haven't tried me, how do you know that I'm not as good as your boyfriend?"
"Despicable! shameless! obscene!" Zuo Ling was so frightened that she didn't know how to refute it, so she had to scold.
No matter how you say it, Zuo Ling is Gu Manting's classmate and roommate, and she can't go too far, just click until now.
Su Ling didn't continue to make trouble, but took a step back and said: "Miss Zuo, I, Su Ling, am a reasonable person, others scold me, I naturally want to scold back, others bully me, I also want to fight back, so please be polite to me in the future, otherwise I will never let you look good!"
