Jiang Yang was somewhat surprised.

I didn't expect this girl to take the initiative to greet me, and she even remembered my name.

Cao Long and the other two were also stunned, and they all looked at Jiang Yang with questioning eyes: What's going on?

The girl introduced herself confidently: "My name is Lin Wei, and I am the president of the cultural club. I was in charge of the new student registration that day."

She then pointed to the girls behind her, "They are my roommates."

Jiang Yang then came to his senses and greeted Lin Wei and her roommates with a smile.

"Jiang Yang, you're something else," Cao Long said, winking and looking gossipy.

Li Yu pushed up his glasses: "That's right, Jiang Yang, tell me honestly, how did you two get together?"

Liu Ming chimed in, "Jiang Yang, you're moving way too fast! It's only your first day at school!"

Before Jiang Yang could explain, the girls behind Lin Wei were also looking at them curiously.

One of the girls extended her right hand to Jiang Yang and introduced herself confidently: "My name is Dong Xin."

Jiang Yang also extended his hand and shook it gently: "Nice to meet you, Dong Xin."

He glanced around at the two tables of people and said, "Since we're all from the same school, why don't we all sit together? That way we can look out for each other in the future."

Dong Xin readily agreed and invited her roommates to sit down together.

The two tables were put together, and everyone introduced themselves to each other, instantly creating a lively atmosphere.

Suddenly, several young men with dyed yellow hair rushed into the restaurant and headed straight for Dong Xin.

The blond-haired leader grabbed Dong Xin's arm and said rudely, "No wonder I couldn't find you. So you were hiding here on a date with another man!"

Dong Xin forcefully shook off Huang Mao's hand, her face turning ugly: "What nonsense are you talking about! These are all classmates I just met. We were just having a meal together."

Jiang Yang looked at the group of blond-haired men, who had dyed their hair in various colors, wore bell-bottoms, and had thick gold chains around their necks. They were clearly not good people.

He turned to look at Dong Xin: "Who is this?"

Dong Xin bit her lip and said in a low voice, "His name is Wang Hu. He was betrothed to me by my parents when we were children, but he grew up to be lazy and good-for-nothing, so we broke off the engagement. But he's been haunting me ever since."

Jiang Yang immediately understood.

Isn't this a typical case of a hooligan harassing a respectable young woman?

“My friend,” he turned to Wang Hu, his tone still calm, “you’re disturbing our meal. Please leave.”

Wang Hu sized Jiang Yang up and down, then scoffed disdainfully, "What can you do if I don't leave?"

Seeing his innocent and foolish appearance, Jiang Yang sighed helplessly.

It's better to avoid trouble; you can't reason with this kind of person.

Since reasoning with them is useless, we might as well just leave.

He turned to the owner and said, "Boss, please pack our food to go."

Then, he nodded to Dong Xin and her roommates, saying, "Let's go."

"Ah."

The others agreed with Jiang Yang's approach and packed up their belongings to leave.

Seeing this, Wang Hu grabbed Dong Xin's arm: "Everyone else can leave, but she has to stay!"

Jiang Yang's eyes turned cold, and he quickly grabbed the arm that Wang Hu was holding Dong Xin with and twisted it forcefully.

"what!"

Wang Hu let out a scream and knelt on one knee in pain.

Jiang Yang tightened his grip, his tone icy: "I advise you not to cause trouble again. If there's a next time, this arm will be broken."

Wang Hu was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely. He quickly nodded and agreed, "I won't do it again! I won't do it again!"

Jiang Yang released his grip, tossed Wang Hu aside, and led the group away from the restaurant without looking back.

Wang Hu clutched his arm, wincing in pain, but muttered viciously, "This definitely won't end like this!"

The aroma of stir-fried noodles and grilled skewers wafted from under the plastic awnings of the roadside stalls.

Jiang Yang and the others sat together, the plastic stools creaking.

"I'm so sorry to have made everyone suffer along with me," Dong Xin said softly, her head down.

Jiang Yang picked up a mouthful of fried noodles with his chopsticks and ate it in big bites: "What are you saying? It's all the same no matter where you eat. This roadside stall has such a great atmosphere!"

Li Yu chimed in, "That's right, that's right! Dong Xin, don't worry about it. We're from the same school, so we'll look out for each other in the future!"

Cao Long patted his chest and said, "If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just say my name, Cao Long!"

Liu Ming was rather introverted and didn't say anything, but just smiled and nodded in agreement.

A warm feeling welled up in Dong Xin's heart. She secretly glanced at Jiang Yang and saw him eating fried noodles with gusto, fine beads of sweat on his forehead, yet he exuded an indescribable charm.

Her heartbeat quickened for no apparent reason.

“Oh, right,” she mustered her courage, “our cultural club is recruiting new members, Jiang Yang, would you be interested in joining?”

"A cultural club?" Jiang Yang swallowed the fried noodles in his mouth. "Sounds good, I'll join!"

"Great!" Dong Xin clapped her hands excitedly.

"Congratulations, Jiang Yang! You're now part of the Cultural Society!" Cao Long said with a wink.

Li Yu chimed in, "That's great! Jiang Yang is sure to become a star student at school!"

Jiang Yang felt a little embarrassed by their comments, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.

But he was making plans in his mind.

Joining the cultural club might help you integrate into this new environment more quickly.

After dinner, everyone went back to their dormitories.

On the way, Cao Long nudged Jiang Yang with his elbow: "I'm telling you, Dong Xin is a pretty good girl, you'd better seize the opportunity!"

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not even close to being a done deal yet." Jiang Yang smiled helplessly.

Li Yu leaned closer and whispered, "Jiang Yang, let me tell you, Dong Xin is a million times better than that Su Jingtong! Don't be foolish!"

Jiang Yang remained silent for a moment, then agreed with Li Yu's words.

Although Su Jingtong is beautiful, she is too arrogant. Dong Xin's gentleness and thoughtfulness are more attractive to him.

Back in the dorm, the four of them chatted for a while, talking about interesting things at school and their plans for the future.

After the dormitory lights were turned off, they went to bed and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, Jiang Yang arrived at the classroom early.

As soon as he walked to the middle of the classroom, he saw Su Jingtong and Xu Dan sitting in the last row, chatting and laughing.

Jiang Yang paused, cursing his bad luck inwardly, and turned to change direction.

"Hey, isn't this Jiang Yang? What's wrong, still haunting me?"

Xu Dan spotted him with sharp eyes and immediately spoke up to mock him.

Jiang Yang stopped and turned to look at her, a cold smile playing on his lips: "Are we that close?"

"What do you mean? Pretending not to know me?"

Xu Dan stood up angrily, pointed at Jiang Yang's nose and cursed, "Don't think you can become a phoenix just because you've hooked up with Dong Xin! Don't we Jing Tong know what you are?"
