Chapter 1272: 1271 met an acquaintance again
Ye Sheng wanted to call her back, but she ran so fast that in the blink of an eye, she was ten meters away. With so many people around, even if Ye Sheng tried to shout, she wouldn’t be able to hear him.
“Ah! Didn’t you say you’d compensate me?” Ye Sheng touched his forehead, which had turned red from being hit, and said helplessly, “Just because you know me doesn’t mean what you just said doesn’t count.”
But they were schoolmates, they’d talk about it next time they met.
Ye Sheng watched the girl’s retreating figure and suddenly smiled. He had initially thought Li Li was a violent and irrational person, but from her behavior today, she seemed quite adorable.
Suddenly, the smile on Ye Sheng’s face disappeared, “What am I thinking about? Forget it, I better go back and read some more books to calm down.”
Then he quickly left the Love Tree and went to find his roommates.
After getting the red placard, Li Li hurried back to meet Lan Ning, “Ning Ning, guess who I just met?”
Lan Ning guessed, “Tan Rou and her group or Liang Lu and her group?”
Li Li shook her head, “Neither, the person I just met we’ve only seen once before, and he’s a boy.”
Lan Ning couldn’t guess then, as there were so many boys they had met just once. She couldn’t even remember some of their names, so how could she know who it was?
“Then I can’t guess who he is,” Lan Ning gave up guessing.
Li Li continued to describe, “The night I fought, we met him at the entrance of the boys’ dorm. He was passing by there, and then I pulled him over to pretend to be my boyfriend. He is a senior from the Chemistry Department.”
Lan Ning suddenly realized, “Oh, that person!”
Li Li said smiling, “The senior is quite nice actually. He didn’t ask me to pay for hitting him with the placard and just returned it to me.”
Lan Ning smiled in agreement, “This senior does have a good temper. If it had been someone else, they probably would have scolded us at the dorm entrance that night.”
“Actually, the senior is quite good-looking, but he’s not my type,” Li Li said with a bit of regret, “Never mind, let’s not dwell on this. Let’s hurry up and hang up the placard.”
Lan Ning pointed at the placard hanging on the tree and then said, “Mine is already up there.”
Li Li thought she had hung it too low and said, “You hung it too low, let me help you take it down and hang it again.”
Lan Ning declined, “No need for the trouble, I just found it fun and wasn’t really using the Love Tree to find romance.”
Since Lan Ning said that, Li Li couldn’t insist, so she flung her own placard up forcefully. This time she hung it high and didn’t hit anyone else with it.
After hanging the placard, Li Li was admiring her placard under the tree when she heard someone calling her.
“Li Li, are you guys making wishes here too?” a very familiar voice rang in Li Li’s ear.
Li Li turned around and saw Jiang Min and a stranger, both holding red placards in their hands.
“Senior Jiang, long time no see!” Li Li greeted Jiang Min enthusiastically.
A faint smile appeared on Jiang Min’s face, “Yeah, it’s been a long time indeed. Let’s have a meal together sometime soon.”
Since Jiang Min graduated, Li Li had seldom seen her. Their circles didn’t overlap, and if it weren’t for Tan Rou bridging the gap, they wouldn’t have known each other at all.
Although they talked about having a meal together next time, when exactly that might be was hard to determine. It might not even happen by the time Li Li graduated.
“Sure,” Even though she knew the likelihood of having that meal was slim, Li Li didn’t refuse, “Next time, let’s call Tan Rou and the rest to join us.”
Lan Ning spoke up, “We’re all here today, Tan Rou, Liang Lu, and Tian Tian are all around. Why don’t we all have a meal together today?”
Li Li also thought it was a good opportunity. Who knew when they could gather again, so they might as well eat together today.
An unnatural expression appeared on Jiang Min’s face, “Tan Rou came too?”
Li Li replied, “She did, she was just with Brother Zhuang Liu hanging up a placard under the tree, and now they’ve probably gone somewhere else to visit.”
