Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 411 Jealousy Makes People Ferocious
"Hello there!"

Cao Sheng shook hands with him.

I didn't ask the person's name.

Jiang Xiaoshuang exchanged a few pleasantries with the man, then said goodbye and went up to the second floor of the restaurant with Cao Sheng.

"Your classmate?"

As they went upstairs, Cao Sheng asked a question out of curiosity.

Jiang Xiaoshuang hummed in agreement, "We were in the same class before. I never expected that he would still be in Huizhou after graduation. Today is the first time we've seen each other since graduation."

Cao Sheng simply said "oh" and didn't ask anything further.

For him, this was just a minor incident in life.

For Xu Linsheng, however, his chance encounter with Jiang Xiaoshuang and Cao Sheng here today was a major event in his recent peaceful life.

Jiang Xiaoshuang was the most beautiful girl in their class and also had the title of the most talented girl in the whole school.

And Cao Sheng...

Back then, who in the whole school didn't know the name "Zhongyuan Yidianhui"?

I doubt anyone would disagree that he's the most talented student in the entire school.

The key point is—he once had a crush on Jiang Xiaoshuang.

He had never dared to confess his feelings, but today he saw her and Cao Sheng having dinner here, which left him with mixed feelings.

As he walked out of the restaurant, he couldn't help but turn back and glance at the lobby again.

After walking a few more steps, he suddenly saw a black BMW sedan parked on the side of the road.

The license plate number looked familiar to him.

He frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered that it was Cao Sheng's license plate number.

Back then, after Cao Sheng bought the BMW, he kept a low profile and didn't drive it into the school often. But in that era, the story of a college student buying a BMW with his own writing fees was something that many people were interested in discussing and spreading.

Many people have heard about this.

Xu Linsheng had seen Cao Sheng driving a BMW one day while eating outside the school. He remembered that the driver's side window was down when Cao Sheng was driving.

It left a deep impression on him.

As a result, he also remembered Cao Sheng's license plate number.

Xu Linsheng stopped by the roadside and stared at Cao Sheng's BMW for a while, his gaze thoughtful. After a moment, he continued walking forward, taking out a mobile phone as he went and dialing a number.

"Hello? I remember you said you have an elder in the Huizhou Writers Association, right? Can you help me find out Huang Qingya's contact information? Yes, yes! Huang Qingya, I know she's Cao Sheng's girlfriend. Don't ask so many questions, just tell me if you can help me find out her contact information! Okay, okay! Thank you! I'll wait for your good news. Thank you for your help."

call ended.

Xu Linsheng glanced back at Cao Sheng's BMW.

After thinking for a moment, he lowered his head and dialed another number.

"Hey? Ah Shan, I remember when we had an event at school, you were in charge of external relations and you found a reporter, right? Do you still have that reporter's contact information? Hmm, I need it! Stop talking nonsense! Do you have it? If you do, send me her contact information right now, okay? Okay! Okay! I'll treat you to drinks next time, I promise, alright?"

……

Jealousy makes people look hideous.

Xu Linsheng loves Jiang Xiaoshuang but cannot have her. Today, seeing her having dinner with Cao Sheng, he is very suspicious of her relationship with Cao Sheng and feels very uncomfortable.

I just wanted to vent my anger.

Let's get Cao Sheng back.

……

In a small private room on the second floor.

Cao Sheng and Jiang Xiaoshuang ordered a few dishes. Since they had to drive later, Cao Sheng didn't order any alcohol, only a bottle of Sprite.

The two of them chatted while eating.

They talked about their past campus life, the current situation of Huizhou Teachers College, and also about Jiang Xiaoshuang's work and Cao Sheng's works.

"Hey! Did you hear? Our school is building a new campus! I heard it's huge and really beautiful!"

Jiang Xiaoshuang brought up this topic.

Cao Sheng chuckled slightly and said with a sigh, "It's really strange. From childhood to adulthood, it seems that after I graduated from elementary school, the elementary school built a new campus; after I graduated from middle school, the middle school also started building a new campus soon after; and now that I'm about to graduate from university, the university has also started building a new campus. Was your previous school like this?"

Jiang Xiaoshuang was taken aback, frowned and recalled for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile, "It seems that's really the case. My old schools have all built new campuses."

……

Huang Qingya suddenly received a text message from an unknown number.

“Cao Sheng was having dinner with a beautiful woman at Grandma’s Restaurant on Binjiang Road. His car was parked in a parking space on the side of the road. I think their relationship is very abnormal. I also know that you are his girlfriend. I have already told you the news. Whether you go to arrest them or not is up to you—a kind person.”

Huang Qingya, who had just gotten off work and driven back to her residential compound, frowned after reading the message.

She remembered that Cao Sheng had asked her out that afternoon, but she had refused.

If you can't get a date with me, why don't you date other beautiful women?
Huang Qingya's expression was rather unpleasant.

She knew that there must have been quite a few beautiful women pursuing him over the years.

But even though she had guessed it, she was still a little angry when she actually received the news.

Grandma's Village on Binjiang Road?
She had heard of this place; it was said that the farm-style dishes were very authentic, and the owner had specially contracted a mountain to grow vegetables, raise pigs, chickens, ducks, fish, and so on, in order to ensure the quality of the ingredients.

Many people go there because of its reputation.

She's eaten there too.

After a moment of contemplation, she read the text message again.

Her gaze lingered for a moment on the sentence "His car was parked in a parking space on the side of the road," and then she started the car again, turned around, drove out of the community, and headed towards Binjiang Road.

……

Chang Min is a reporter for the Huizhou Daily.

She was pretty and outgoing, and was often sent out to interview famous entrepreneurs. This was a job she liked because it gave her the opportunity to talk directly with these wealthy people. They were usually very generous to her, not only treating her politely, but also having their secretaries give her a big red envelope after the interview, hoping that she would write a few more good words for them when she wrote the article.

At this moment, she also received a message from Xu Linsheng.

Tell her that Zhongyuan Yidianhui is on a date with a beautiful woman at Grandma's Village on Binjiang Road.

As a journalist, she frequently receives these kinds of scoops.

But this was the first time she had ever heard someone reveal the whereabouts of Zhongyuan Yidianhui like this.

Is it true or false?

Is the beautiful woman in the message Zhongyuan Yidianhui's girlfriend?
"Is the beautiful woman you're talking about Huang Qingya?"

She replied to the message asking.

A moment later, the other party replied: "No! Definitely not."

Chang Min became interested. She knew about Zhongyuan Yidianhui's current reputation and status in the novel circle, as well as how famous he was in the Huizhou region.

She believed that many people would enjoy reading his gossip.

or……

Could I use this rumor to...become friends with him? Maybe he'll even give me a big red envelope?
Thinking this, she immediately called her boyfriend: "Honey, something came up, let's cancel today's date! Tomorrow! I'll spend time with you tomorrow, okay?"

After saying that, she hung up the phone before her boyfriend could ask any more questions.

Then I called the driver in the group and told him to drive over immediately, saying there was breaking news.

As a reporter who frequently travels, her news team has a dedicated driver who can be summoned with just a phone call when needed.

……

Huang Qingya drove to the vicinity of Grandma's Village, slowed down, and moved forward little by little.

Not long after, she saw Cao Sheng's BMW in a parking space by the roadside. By then, she had completely calmed down.

Upon seeing Cao Sheng's car, she merely chuckled softly.

The car drove past Grandma's Village, turned around a short distance ahead, and headed back.

She didn't go in to "catch them in the act."

Because reason told her that this was not a good choice.

Regardless of the outcome of the "catching them in the act" incident, it will seriously affect her relationship with Cao Sheng.

……

Soon.

Chang Min sat in a van and arrived at the gate of Grandma's Village.

She also saw Cao Sheng's car, but did not know that it belonged to Cao Sheng. She did not rush to get out of the car, but patiently sat in the car, waiting for Cao Sheng to come out while adjusting the camera in her hand.

Cao Sheng, who hadn't been drinking, quickly finished his meal with Jiang Xiaoshuang, went downstairs to pay the bill, and came out of the store.

As they were leaving, Jiang Xiaoshuang asked, "It's still early, where are you planning to go? You're not thinking of going back now, are you?"

Cao Sheng glanced at the night outside. "Let me take you home first! It's still early. If I get home sooner, I can write another chapter."

Jiang Xiaoshuang chuckled.

"I don't want to go back so early. I finally have half a day off today. How about I come to your place for a while? Is that okay? Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've been back to school. I'd like to go back and take a look."

Cao Sheng glanced at her and nodded. "Okay! Let's get in the car quickly!"

The two got into the car, one after the other.

Inside the van not far away.

Chang Min quickly snapped a few photos.

Although the photos taken at night weren't very good, Cao Sheng's face was still barely visible, mainly because the streetlights were adequate and not too dark.

Seeing Cao Sheng and the beautiful woman get into the car, Chang Min put down her camera and pouted somewhat dejectedly.

The driver sighed, "This guy surnamed Cao, it seems he hasn't been drinking? Eating with a beautiful woman and not drinking? The key is, they didn't do anything intimate. Is this newsworthy?"

Chang Min saw that Cao Sheng's BMW had turned on its lights in the distance, indicating that it had started and was about to leave.

She frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Follow that car! I don't believe that a man and a woman alone together on a date at night won't do anything."

The driver responded.

Seeing that Cao Sheng's car had already turned around and left, the driver quickly drove after him.

……

Halfway through the journey, Huang Qingya suddenly slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop on the side of the road.

She thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and dialed Cao Sheng's number.

After the call connected, she smiled and said, "Hey! You're in your dorm right now, right? I'll come over and keep you company!"

Cao Sheng, who was driving, was a little surprised.

Didn't you say you weren't available today?

Huang Qingya: "I miss you."

After a pause, before Cao Sheng could reply, she continued, "It's settled then. I'll go to your dorm now. Could you make me a cup of jasmine tea beforehand? I'll come over and drink it in a bit, okay?"

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Thinking to myself: No matter who you're dating tonight, once I get here and empty your ammo, let's see what tricks you can pull!
Cao Sheng, who was driving, put down his phone with amusement.

Jiang Xiaoshuang, sitting in the passenger seat, asked curiously, "Who called? It sounds like a woman's voice."

Cao Sheng: "My girlfriend took a taxi. She's going to my dorm, so I can't take you to my dorm tonight. Sorry!"

Jiang Xiaoshuang: "???"

After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Xiaoshuang brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, smiled and nodded, "I understand! It's okay, I can understand. When we get to the school, just drop me off in the car. I'll wander around the campus and then take a taxi back myself."

Cao Sheng looked at her and nodded.

……

Huang Qingya parked her car by the river, looked at the river view for a while, and then, feeling that it was about time, drove back to Huizhou Teachers College to find Cao Sheng.

She deliberately stopped by the river for a while, wanting to make her arrival time at his dormitory seem more reasonable.

When she arrived at his dormitory.

Cao Shenggang had just returned about ten minutes ago.

He had already brewed the flower tea she wanted.

When we met, her expression was normal, she was all smiles, and she was carrying several bags of fruit that she had just bought outside the school gate.

"Have you finished your fruit? I bought you some more."

As she spoke, she walked in, handed the fruit to Cao Sheng, and bent down to change her shoes.

Have you had dinner yet?

It was only a short time after nightfall, so Cao Sheng casually asked her, guessing that she had already eaten.

But she shook her head and said, "Not yet! I was writing a chapter just before I left work, and by the time I finished, it was past closing time. Do you have anything to eat here? Get me something!"

Cao Sheng was a little surprised.

"Wait a minute!"

As he spoke, he took out his phone and called Sun Liang, asking him to go outside the school gate to get a serving of pickled fish and some rice.

Huang Qingya's smile widened when she heard about pickled fish.

She likes to eat pickled fish.

"Have you eaten?" she asked, knowing the answer already.

Cao Sheng nodded. "I've already eaten. Do you know your family is here at this time? Did you call home to let them know?"

Huang Qingya: "I already said that."

As she spoke, she subconsciously looked around Cao Sheng's residence, trying to see if there were any signs that other women had been there.

But you can't tell.

Because Cao Sheng's room was simply furnished, besides the bed and wardrobe in the bedroom, there was only a desk, computer, air conditioner, and other items in the outer room.

It's clear at a glance.

Very neat.

"You wanted some flower tea, right? I made it for you. Here! That cup over there is it! Drink up!"

"Oh, thank you."

Huang Qingya walked over and picked up the teacup on the table.

While drinking, he asked, "By the way, how many chapters do you have in your new book? Can I get a sneak peek? I've already read the two chapters you posted online, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens next."

As she spoke, she walked toward his computer.

Cao Sheng picked up his teacup, sat down at the dining table, and said with a smile while drinking tea, "Take a look for yourself! There are probably about 200,000 words in the draft! That should keep you busy for a while."

When they meet, he usually hugs her and gets intimate with her first. Only after he's in a trance-like state does he talk to her about other things.

But when he asked her out today, she said she wasn't available.

He thought she was genuinely inconvenienced.

So, from the moment she walked in today until now, he has acted very gentlemanly and hasn't hugged her once.
