Chapter 249: Chapter 250: Chance Encounter with Lan Yudie
Liu Bin looked at Xiao Han with an evil face and said, “Are you in spring fever, kid? Where in the world did you find such a beautiful girl? Are you kidding me?”
“I met her today.” Xiao Han said seriously, “Right in our school’s piano room, a girl in a white dress, very beautiful, so beautiful that it takes your breath away. She is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life. Even more beautiful than… Chen Zihan!”
“Who is Chen Zihan?” Liu Bin was stunned.
“A very beautiful girl!” Xiao Han smiled.
“Let me see!” Liu Bin hurriedly opened a web page and pulled up a post, saying, “Can you find that girl on here?”
Xiao Han leaned over, and wasn’t this the Shuimu University Campus Beauty List? He glanced at it and didn’t see the girl at all. Xiao Han shook his head with a disappointed face, saying, “No.”
“Then you’ve seen a ghost.” Liu Bin’s eyes widened and said, “Xiao Han, did you meet a female ghost today? My god, this school being haunted is not new. I heard that there used to be a big cemetery under this school. So, there are always ghostly rumors.”
“Where did you hear that from?” Xiao Han looked at him, perplexed.
“Campus forum,” Liu Bin said hastily.
“I’m a staunch atheist,” Xiao Han chuckled, “So, I don’t believe in any ghost stories. I think that girl really exists.”
“Then there’s only one possibility!” Liu Bin said seriously.
“What?” Xiao Han asked curiously.
“Either she’s a freshman,” Liu Bin looked at Xiao Han, “or… she’s like Lan Yudie, a teacher at Shuimu University.”
“Hmm, this analysis makes more sense.” Xiao Han nodded.
“Do you want to find her?” Liu Bin asked.
“Forget it.” Xiao Han shook his head and said, “I feel it was good enough to see her once. Maybe the next time I see her, I’ll be disappointed. Let’s leave it to fate. Maybe the next unexpected encounter will elevate my feelings for her.”
“Tsk tsk, are you aiming for a Platonic romance?” Liu Bin chuckled.
That girl was deeply imprinted in Xiao Han’s mind. He couldn’t help but label her: the self-directed girl.
No name, no phone number, not knowing whether she’s a student or a teacher. Just a vague memory. That was all Xiao Han knew. Of course, if Xiao Han met that girl again, he would recognize her without seeing her face, knowing she was the one.
In the following days, every time after military training ended, around six in the evening after dinner, Xiao Han would show up on time at the piano room in the Comprehensive Building, hoping to bump into that girl unintentionally. However, fate played tricks on him. Until military training ended, he never met that girl who made his heart race and made him feel as if he was basking in the spring breeze again.
Xiao Han was very disappointed, and this disappointment was a deep sense of helplessness from within.
Over the past half month, Xiao Han had almost been practicing the piano daily in the piano room. Xiao Han originally had a piano background, combined with his extraordinary memory. He practiced Mozart’s Minuet repeatedly, almost reaching a flawless state. He didn’t need sheet music, closed his eyes, enjoying the pleasure the piano sound brought. It seemed as if the piano room was a must-visit place for him, as if the piano room was the harbor for his soul.
“Xiao Han?” a voice came from behind.
The piano sound stopped abruptly.
Xiao Han’s heart thumped, that voice, could it be…
Xiao Han quickly turned around, only to see Lan Yudie standing at the doorway of the piano room. Xiao Han’s expression immediately fell, “Teacher Lan, why is it you?”
“I came when I heard the piano sound.” Lan Yudie smiled and said, “I didn’t expect your piano skills to be so high.”
“It’s okay.” Xiao Han nodded slightly. Being interrupted by Lan Yudie disrupted his mood, and Xiao Han could no longer find that flowing feeling. After trying a few times and still not feeling it, Xiao Han simply stood up.
“Sorry, I interrupted your playing just now,” Lan Yudie said apologetically.
“It’s fine!” Xiao Han shook his head, then bowed slightly, “I’m going to rest now.”
Saying that, Xiao Han turned and left.
“Hey…” Lan Yudie became anxious.
But Xiao Han didn’t stop at all, he just disappeared out of the door. Lan Yudie was left confused. Didn’t this guy get excited when he first saw her? Why was he running away now? It really was annoying. Lan Yudie couldn’t help but stamp her foot, biting her teeth she cursed, “Sneaky kid, do I look like a man-eater that would devour you?”
Lan Yudie was very displeased in her heart.
She was completely confident in her appearance, but for some reason, why did Xiao Han run away as soon as he saw her? Could it be that there were some ghosts? Lan Yudie felt her confidence was shaken.
However, the piano sound she had just heard was really pleasant. Lan Yudie herself was a piano student, and the flowing melody just now had almost bewitched her. Standing at the door, looking from the side view, she could hardly be sure if that really was Xiao Han—she had only seen a silhouette, which made her uncertain. Thus, Lan Yudie couldn’t help but shout out, unintentionally interrupting Xiao Han’s piano playing.
Before they knew it, the military training had ended, and Xiao Han and his peers all received top grades.
With the end of the military training, the welcoming party was swiftly approaching. The welcoming party and the National Day Gala were held on the same stage. Thus, it was a double celebration. This time, the event was highly valued by the department. Moreover, the Finance Department had even secured Shuimu University’s grand auditorium for the event, showcasing the leadership’s special attention to this occasion.
Although Lan Yudie repeatedly emphasized the importance of this party, Xiao Han didn’t take the event’s performance seriously at all. He kept to his usual habits, arriving punctually at the university’s piano room around six in the evening to practice piano. To outsiders, he was just practicing for the party. However, Xiao Han’s actual purpose was different; he was there hoping to encounter that unreserved girl in white.
Unfortunately, Xiao Han’s plan fell through.
“Xiao Han, a super beautiful woman is here looking for you,” Liu Bin rushed in from outside the dormitory, holding a bowl, and said excitedly, “Come on, man, quickly. Don’t let her wait too long.”
“Who is it?” Xiao Han was puzzled.
“Don’t know, she’s driving a luxury car,” Liu Bin hurriedly said.
Xiao Han immediately reacted and walked out. Indeed, outside the dormitory, Li Xiaoya was standing in front of a BMW, dressed in a striking red dress that made her look exceptionally enchanting, her proud chest perfect contained by the dress, creating a deep cleavage that could drown countless men’s desires.
“Sis, what brings you here?” Xiao Han asked curiously.
“Mmm!” Li Xiaoya nodded, smiling, “I’ve wanted to visit you, but knew you were in military training. So, I had to pick another day. I kept putting it off until today.”
“Sis, you’re so busy, you really didn’t need to come see me,” Xiao Han chuckled.
Xiao Han had mixed feelings about Li Xiaoya. This woman had helped him and could be considered his benefactor. However, he was afraid of becoming too emotionally involved with her. Humans aren’t animals, who could be without feelings? Besides, he and she had already crossed a particular threshold in their relationship, breaking a societal taboo. Xiao Han was also very attracted to Li Xiaoya’s body.
“Get in the car,” Li Xiaoya smiled.
Xiao Han got into the passenger seat. Li Xiaoya drove off towards the city.
Many students saw this scene. All members of Dormitory 101 came out.
“Damn, who is this woman?” Liu Bin was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
“Maybe she’s his relative,” Zhang Dagou said while munching on a plain bun and biting into a garlic clove.
“I think it’s not that simple!” Zhang Feng grinned.
…………
Li Xiaoya drove towards the downtown area, and half an hour later, the BMW arrived at the city’s commercial center and stopped in front of a five-star hotel.
“I’ve booked a meal here,” Li Xiaoya smiled, then added, “Let’s dine here tonight.”
“Mmm,” Xiao Han nodded.
A security guard opened the car door, courteously inviting the two out.
Li Xiaoya took Xiao Han’s hand and then headed towards the elevator. They went directly to the third floor. The third floor was the hotel’s dining center, which had booths and private rooms. At this time, there were already many people dining here, yet it was exceptionally quiet. The clientele spoke in soft whispers, careful not to disturb their neighbors, reflecting a high level of etiquette.
They walked slowly to a booth under a waiter’s guidance.
The two of them sat down facing each other. Before long, the waiter lit a candle on the booth, and in the dim light, the candle’s glow was particularly striking. The environment was very nice, and it felt spacious around, despite the crowd. There was a considerable distance between each group of diners, ensuring that they did not intrude into others’ private spaces. This was something the hotel had nearly perfected. From a frontal view, one could absolutely not see into other booths. This clever design likely came from an expert.
Xiao Han’s mouth curved into a smile, “Sis, all this for a meal? Why the big fuss?”
“Have you forgotten?” Li Xiaoya bit her red lip, her eyes revealing a faint smile, “What day is today?”
“What day is it?” Xiao Han asked, puzzled.
“Today marks the first anniversary of our acquaintance!” Li Xiaoya laughed.
“Ah?” Xiao Han was stunned.
His mind felt a moment of dizziness, reflecting on how time indeed passed so quickly. It felt like just a moment ago that he was still gathering funds for the Hanmen Training Class. It was hard to believe that he was now worth millions. It all seemed like a dream.
