Chapter 1013: Just take a taxi.
"Who says STEM guys can't date? Look how well this love letter is written, it's a pity it's not for me." Chen Yue crumpled up a love letter with a regretful look and threw it into the wastebasket.
Lin Weiwei teased her, "If it was so well-written, why did you throw it away?"
Chen Yue argued vehemently, "It wasn't written for me, so why would I keep it?"
At this moment, the people in room 301 were busy helping Tang Ruixuan organize love letters and gifts. This kind of thing happens every three to five days, there's no way around it!
Their dormitory mailboxes were often overflowing, and the dormitory supervisor often had gifts deposited there. Every time Tang Ruixuan returned to the dormitory, she would be reminded not to forget to pick up her gifts.
"Xuanxuan, this is what I just received." Zhou Xiaoyu came in with a stack of letters in her hand.
"Quick, quick, let me see!" Lin Weiwei excitedly snatched the letter from Zhou Xiaoyu's hand.
She didn't need Tang Ruixuan's consent to do this, because Tang Ruixuan never read these letters. So, after obtaining Tang Ruixuan's consent, the other three members of 301 were fully responsible for handling these letters. As for the gifts, Tang Ruixuan was free to deal with them herself.
Chen Yue then asked Tang Ruixuan, "Xuanxuan, did you return the watch that Senior Li gave you?"
Two days ago, Li Wenbo mentioned that Tang Ruixuan didn't seem to own a decent watch, so he gave her a Cartier women's watch. Even though Tang Ruixuan firmly refused, Li Wenbo threw down the watch box and left. Tang Ruixuan didn't want to chase after him in public, so she planned to return it to him when she saw him. However, she hasn't seen him for the past two days.
Hearing Chen Yue's question, Tang Ruixuan shook her head: "I haven't been able to find him in the past two days."
Chen Yue then asked, "Tsk tsk tsk! That watch must cost tens of thousands, right?"
The Cartier Ballon Bleu mechanical watch has a list price of 56888. This price is definitely not cheap for ordinary people, but it is not the case for Tang Ruixuan. She has many watches, most of which are gifts from her elders. The cheapest watch among them costs two or three hundred thousand. However, she does not like to wear watches, and all of them are stored in the watch cabinet in her walk-in closet at home.
"I think Senior Li must have been provoked by the Lamborghini, otherwise why would he be in such a hurry to give you a watch, haha!" Chen Yue analyzed the reasons with Tang Ruixuan.
Tang Ruixuan smiled helplessly; perhaps what Chen Yue said was true.
At that moment, Lin Weiwei handed over a letter: "This letter is a bit special!"
Chen Yue took it and exclaimed, "Wow! This calligraphy is so beautiful, and it was written with a brush!"
Tang Ruixuan glanced at it and found that it was a love letter written in classical Chinese. The writing was quite good, and it even quoted classical texts. She looked at the signature: Gu Wenxian, Department of Classical Literature, School of Literature.
"I think I've heard someone mention Gu Wenxian before!" Lin Weiwei seemed to remember something.
"By the way, this Gu Wenxian is a talented student from the School of Literature, and also the vice chairman of his hometown's calligraphy association. He even won first prize in the National College Student Classical Poetry Creation Competition last year. I didn't expect him to fall into the same trap!"
The girls started gossiping again.
On Sunday, Jinan University's annual basketball tournament began, with the School of Artificial Intelligence facing off against the School of Law, according to the draw.
Because it was a match between our college and the law school, the student union organized students from our college to go to the venue to cheer them on.
Tang Ruixuan took the opportunity to return the watch to Li Wenbo.
"Senior, thank you for your kindness, but this watch is too valuable, and besides, I don't need it. You should take it back!"
Tang Ruixuan returned the watch to him in front of everyone, so Li Wenbo had no choice but to take it back.
Li Wenbo originally wanted to say a few more words to Tang Ruixuan, but Lin Weiwei ruined it.
"Xuanxuan, come look! He's so handsome!" Lin Weiwei said, pulling Tang Ruixuan along as she pointed to a player on the basketball court.
Tang Ruixuan had no interest in basketball, but she still glanced in the direction Lin Weiwei was pointing.
"That's Lu Huazhou, the captain of our college's basketball team. I heard he's a level-two athlete!" Lin Weiwei excitedly introduced him to her roommate.
To be fair, Lu Huazhou is indeed very good-looking, standing at 1.9 meters tall with striking features, and his ball skills seem quite good as well.
After the game ended, Lu Huazhou walked straight up to Tang Ruixuan. His jersey was soaked and clung to his body, showing off his strong physique.
"Gulp!" Tang Ruixuan clearly heard Lin Weiwei swallow hard beside her, and the hand gripping her arm tightened even more.
Tang Ruixuan chuckled inwardly.
"Tang Ruixuan, you're here to watch the game too!" Lu Huazhou smiled brightly.
He then added, "We're playing against the School of Economics and Management next week, you absolutely have to come!"
At this moment, everyone around them looked in their direction, including some students who had not yet left.
Tang Ruixuan said calmly, "We'll see! But congratulations on your victory today."
Although somewhat disappointed by Tang Ruixuan's attitude, Lu Huazhou still smiled and said, "Thank you! I'll have someone reserve a good spot for you in the next competition."
Before Tang Ruixuan could respond, he was called away by the coach. As he left, he waved to her.
On her way back to the dormitory, Tang Ruixuan's phone rang. She took it out and glanced at it; it was her elderly mother, Zeng Hong, calling.
She gently pushed away Lin Weiwei's arm that was holding hers and answered the phone.
After the call connected, a familiar voice came from the phone: "My dear girl! What are you doing?"
"I just finished watching a basketball game and I'm on my way back to the dorm."
"Then guess where your dad and I are right now?" Zeng Hong played a guessing game with her daughter.
No one knows a mother better than her daughter, so Tang Ruixuan immediately asked, "You've come to our school?"
"How did you know?" Zeng Hong asked in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ruixuan immediately tensed up: "You're not downstairs in my dorm, are you?"
Zeng Hong knew why her daughter was nervous, because Tang Ruixuan had emphasized to them at home that if they wanted to visit her, they should call her first and never drive directly into the school.
As Tang Jianhua grew older and wealthier, he upgraded his car to a 2009 Bentley Arnage, a true luxury car with a 68-liter engine.
If Zeng Hong hadn't thought Rolls-Royce was too flashy, Tang Jianhua originally planned to buy a Rolls-Royce. However, when Tang Jianhua saw the Bentley Arnage, he bought it immediately. At the time, the car cost more than five million yuan.
It is said that there are very few Bentley Arnages in China, only a few dozen in total.
So if this car were parked downstairs at the dormitory, Tang Ruixuan's identity would be impossible to hide.
Zeng Hong quickly explained to her daughter, "No, no, we're at the Jinling branch. Your father came over to handle some things, so I came with him and also to see you."
Tang Ruixuan was relieved: "Then I'll come find you later!"
"Don't run away, I'll have the driver pick you up." Zeng Hong immediately arranged for someone to pick up her when she heard that her daughter was coming.
Tang Ruixuan said, "No need, it's very convenient to take a taxi at the school gate. There are a lot of cars on the road right now, and Jinling is under construction for the subway, so it's congested everywhere. I'll just go by myself!"
