Chapter 16 The Golden Legend
Chapter 16 The Golden Legend
The afternoon classes flew by, and school ended promptly at 18 PM.
Computer science majors have evening study sessions, but these are not required courses, do not earn credits, and are not mandatory for students.
After putting "C Programming Language" into his bag, Ang Lee didn't rush to leave. Instead, he sat down and started looking at his phone.
Several of the items I bought at noon have already been delivered to the Cainiao Station at Jiangda University because some of them are same-day delivery.
After checking the delivery arrival information, he opened WeChat and sent a message in the gaming group, saying that he had something to do today and wouldn't be going online.
In this world, no one can resist the temptation of money, and he is no exception.
While playing games with friends is fun, earning money by running is even more fun.
Old Pig: "You wouldn't actually be looking to find a girlfriend, would you?"
Ang Lee: No, I had a lot of homework today, and I wanted to go for a run to get some exercise.
He doesn't go to internet cafes every day. After all, he's a college student and should prioritize his studies. It wouldn't be right for him to play games all day.
As the students gradually left the classroom, Ang Lee suddenly heard a soft call:
Ang Lee.
"Ah...it's Xiao Zhong, what's up?"
Li An looked up and saw Zhong Lixue had come to his seat, which puzzled him.
As he spoke, he put down his phone and stood up to show that he took it seriously.
He could tell that Xiao Zhong was very insecure.
To deal with insecure and sensitive people, you need to be enthusiastic enough.
"It's nothing, I'm just going to work part-time at a bubble tea shop, and I wanted to say goodbye before I leave."
Zhong Lixue mustered up her courage to come over, and she was very happy to hear him call her Xiao Zhong.
"I see. Then be careful on your way."
Realizing she had to go to work today, Ang Lee nodded and offered his best wishes.
"I'll be careful today. You keep going. Bye."
Receiving his reminder and blessing, Zhong Lixue felt overjoyed and waved goodbye to him gently.
"Bye-Bye."
Ang Lee was also happy to see the smile on her face, and felt that his enthusiasm was meaningful.
After saying a formal goodbye, Zhong Lixue, who was rushing to her part-time job, turned around and ran away.
Actually, the reason she ran away wasn't just because she was in a hurry, but also because her conversation with Ang Lee had attracted the attention of her classmates.
Although Ang Lee allowed her to talk to him at school, she was so ordinary-looking and Ang Lee was so handsome. It just didn't feel right for the two of them to be together in public.
……
After playing on his phone for a while and calming his two good friends down, Ang Lee got up and left the classroom.
According to his usual schedule, Ang Lee would usually go back to his dormitory to put down his backpack first, then go to the cafeteria for dinner, and then start his free time.
But since he bought something online today, he plans to go to the Cainiao Station to pick it up first.
Jiangnan University has three gates, and the express delivery station is located at the West Gate, which is closer to the dormitory area.
The weather was pretty good today. Although it rained a little, it only rained during class time, so the ground was just wet.
Not long after, Ang Lee arrived at the courier station.
There are many people picking up their packages at this time, and you can see many unfamiliar new faces, and even teachers.
Upon arriving at this crowded place, Ang Lee didn't rush to pick up his package. Instead, he subconsciously began to survey the area, observing the personas of each individual.
However, after a thorough inspection, the effect of Prince Charming still hadn't kicked in.
I don't know if the "Prince Charming" has too high a standard for the "princess," or if it's because the girls' college is too safe on campus and it's hard for them to encounter danger.
After scanning around, only one pair caught his attention.
A gold digger and a rich second-generation heir were seen arm in arm picking up a package, chatting and laughing, and they seemed quite well-matched.
The gold digger was quite pretty, not with heavy nightclub makeup, but with a natural look, wearing a snow-white dress, and looked very innocent.
The rich kid isn't bad-looking either; after all, money can cultivate a certain air. Although he's not a handsome man, his clothes look quite sophisticated.
These two are a perfect match, both financially well-off and emotionally compatible.
Turning his gaze away, Li An took out his phone and started checking the pickup code to retrieve the package.
Just as he was picking up his package, there was a sudden commotion nearby:
"Old Wu, Old Wu," someone called out quietly, nudging their friend with their elbow.
"What?" Old Wu, who was rummaging through his packages, was a little hurt by the bump.
"Look over there!"
Hearing this conversation, Ang Lee was somewhat surprised and followed their gaze.
A strikingly beautiful woman with long, straight black hair walked into the entrance of the express delivery station.
When she appeared, Ang Lee stared in disbelief.
Her long, glossy black hair and exquisitely beautiful appearance are not the main reasons that attract public attention, but rather her figure.
She was so tall, with incredibly long legs, that she was taller than many of the boys at the courier station, and even more so than the girls.
Her pretty face was bare of makeup, and her outfit was simple: a short T-shirt paired with high-waisted black wide-leg sweatpants and flat shoes, making her look clean and elegant.
This is a beauty, an absolute stunner!
However, external conditions such as top-notch modeling are not important at all; the key is the character design above her head.
Queen of the Sky
Just like Zhong Lixue's Cinderella story, her character is also marked with gold lettering, glittering and dazzling.
When Ang Lee saw her persona, he was stunned.
Okay, okay, it's fine if there aren't any special character designs, but it's all about the Golden Legend, right?
Before Ang Lee could figure out what this character design meant, a scene suddenly appeared before his eyes.
"Splash!"
The rain was torrential, and the rainwater was splashed onto the ground by the strong wind.
The torrential rain under the night sky was like a waterfall, blurring the entire world.
"Tap tap tap tap!"
Just then, the heavy sound of splashing water rang out, and a tall figure appeared running in the rain with an umbrella.
She ran wildly in the rain, as if rushing somewhere.
However, her good fortune didn't last long. While running, she suddenly slipped and fell forward.
"!"
Seeing this, Ang Lee, though he had long anticipated that she would get into trouble while running wildly in the rain, still felt a pang of anxiety.
"Snapped!"
Just before she was about to hit her face, out of her survival instinct, she braced herself with her hands and knees.
When she adjusted her posture and sat on the ground, she looked down at her right hand. There was a small cut between her thumb and forefinger, and bright red blood was flowing out. Her left hand had a slight abrasion.
"It's over..."
Sitting in the rain, looking down at her hands, she murmured to herself in a somewhat lost state, her stunningly beautiful face showing regret and pain.
19: 11: 33
The crisis warning ends here, and the screen freezes on the time number.
"Thank goodness." After watching the crisis warning, Ang Lee secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He had expected to witness another horrifying death omen, but in the end, the Queen of the Sky was very lucky and her life was not in danger.
