Chapter 39 Wear a skirt on a first date
"Yunshi, Ruoruo, can you help me decide which outfit to wear when we go out to eat?" He Jing pulled out several outfits, finding it difficult to choose.

If she's at school, she can handle any situation by wearing a loose-fitting short-sleeved shirt with lettering and a pair of denim shorts.

But when Zhang Yang invited her to the Peace Hotel, she didn't want to dress so casually.

Learning to dress well is not only about respecting others, but also about respecting yourself.

Wei Yunshi looked He Jing up and down, then asked with a smile, "Going out so late, which man has captured our Jing-jie's heart?"

"If you're going on a date, choose a dress; if you're not going on a date, wear denim shorts with a loose short-sleeved shirt. It's a versatile outfit."

As soon as Lan Sisi finished speaking, she raised an eyebrow and asked inquiringly, "Jing-jie, tell us, which major's man have you taken a fancy to?"

"If you ask me, it's best not to wear it at all," Xu Zhiruo teased with a mischievous smile.

"Stop joking, I'm serious." He Jing picked up a floral indigo-dyed sundress and looked at her three roommates for their opinions: "How about this dress?"

"nice!"

"Pretty!"

"Perfect!"

All three roommates gave it a positive review.

"Then I'll try it on." Since they were all girls, He Jing didn't go to the bathroom to change. Instead, she put on the floral indigo-dyed sundress in front of her roommates.

"How about it?"

He Jing turned around.

Looking at He Jing, whose bare shoulders and white collarbone area were on full display, Lan Sisi couldn't help but lean over and touch her, saying, "Sister Jing, you smell so good~"

"So white, so smooth~"

Xu Zhiruo couldn't resist joining in.

Like a tank top, the floral print maxi dress has only two straps at the top for support, leaving the shoulders, collarbone, and chest area completely exposed.

"Let's add a shawl too."

Wei Yunshi made the suggestion.

"Okay." He Jing put on the sky-blue openwork shawl again, her skin faintly visible, making her look more gentle and graceful compared to before she wore the shawl.

"Put on white socks too."

"Don't forget the necklace."

"You can choose white sneakers."

With the advice of her three roommates and the help of makeup, He Jing transformed from a hot college girl into a shy girl next door on her first date.

"Alright, perfect. Jingjie, you can go out and radiate your charm now."

"So beautiful! It's a pity I'm not a man. If I were, I would definitely pursue Sister Jing relentlessly!"

He Jing felt a little embarrassed by her roommates' constant praise. She glanced at herself in the full-length mirror and was quite satisfied with herself.

At this moment, Wei Yunshi asked again, "Sister Jing, you still haven't told us which rascal asked you out?"

"a friend."

He Jing did not reveal Zhang Yang's name, but referred to him as a friend.

She didn't want everyone to know about something before it was finalized.

"Mysterious."

Lan Sisi couldn't help but complain.

Xu Zhiruo then took out her Maserati keys and handed them to He Jing, saying, "Promise me you'll get back to school before curfew."

"There are plenty of hotel rooms, so don't believe men who say there are only single rooms," Wei Yunshi teased with a smile.

Since they are all senior students, how could they not understand those tricks?

Although they haven't experienced it themselves, there are different love stories every day on the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics' online forum.

Cuckolding, cheating, and having three partners are just ordinary things. Some truly outrageous relationship scandals can only be spread through PDF files.

He Jing took the Maserati keys, waved, and said, "I'm off, bye-bye."

"I really envy those who are in a relationship."

"The nunnery has lost another nun."

"Remember to take precautions."

With her roommates seeing her off, He Jing quickly walked down the dormitory building, then went to the school's underground parking lot to find Xu Zhiruo's Maserati, and finally headed straight for the Peace Hotel.

……

Investment Studies, Room 308 (Male Dormitory).

Having just finished a workout at the school gym and feeling somewhat exhausted, Xu Jiafeng opened his dorm room door, ready to call out, only to find it completely dark. "Snap—"

He turned on the light.

The dormitory was empty.

"These sons of mine, they're still not home tonight," Xu Jiafeng couldn't help but complain.

Since being explicitly rejected by Xu Zhiruo, he has realized that he is indeed not good at "modeling" and has stepped up his weight loss efforts.

A regular diet and exercise routine have helped him lose 6 pounds.

Just when he thought Wang Liu, Chen Chuan, and Zhang Yang had all gone out, he heard the sound of water flushing coming from the bathroom on the balcony.

Then, a thin figure emerged from the bathroom; it was his roommate, Chen Chuan.

"Chuanzi, why didn't you turn on the light?"

Xu Jiafeng was puzzled.

"Sigh, just trying to save on electricity." Chen Chuan returned to his lower bunk and calmly turned off the video player.

"Where are the dorm leaders and the others?"

Chen Chuan asked a question.

"Liu Zi went on a date, and the dorm leader is probably still in the library," Xu Jiafeng replied casually. With graduation approaching, everyone was busy with their own things.

"Never mind them." Chen Chuan wiped the dirt off his hands and invited them to play a game: "Want to play Warcraft? I'm frighteningly calm right now."

"Come."

Xu Jiafeng then quickly logged in.

……

While Chen Chuan and Xu Jiafeng were playing games together, Zhang Yang was enjoying the view of the Huangpu River with an iced Americano in his hand.

The river surface shimmered, like stars fallen to earth. Tour boats trailed neon lights as they glided slowly by, the water rippling like a flowing, exquisite painting.

It must be said that there is a reason why some things are expensive.

While Zhang Yang was enjoying the beautiful scenery, there was another knock on the door of the private room.

"咚咚-"

The private room manager pushed open the door and looked at Zhang Yang on the balcony, saying, "Sir, Ms. He has arrived."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang turned around.

Upon seeing He Jing dressed like a girl next door, and looking slightly shy, he couldn't help but laugh and say, "Why did you dress like that?"

"Doesn't it look good?"

A fleeting look of disappointment crossed He Jing's eyes.

Zhang Yang shook his head and said with a faint smile, "It's not that it looks bad, it's just that I've never seen you wear it before, so I was a little surprised."

"Now that you've seen it," He Jing glanced around the private room, then looked at Zhang Yang and asked, "So, what did you want to see me about?"

"Let's order first."

Zhang Yang didn't rush to talk about anything; instead, he asked the private room manager to bring the menu.

The private room manager was also very perceptive and handed the menu to He Jing.

In a meal with only one man and one woman, the woman usually orders the food. If the man is unsure, he will usually hand it over to the woman.

He Jing took the menu and glanced at it, then her brain suddenly went blank for a moment.

A4 Wagyu beef slow-cooked steak, 740 yen per serving.

Salt-baked whelks, 590 per serving.

Spiced black chicken feet, 198 per serving.

Such an outrageous price prompted He Jing to try to remain calm and flip through the pages again.

When she saw a can of Coke costing 30 yuan, she couldn't hold back anymore, thinking, "Are they trying to rip us off like we're Japanese?"

If you spend 30 yuan on a Coke outside, it could make you a giant!

He Jing wasn't used to such high-end places. When she handed the menu to Zhang Yang, she lowered her voice and said, "Let's run, this is a rip-off."

Zhang Yang smiled calmly; he didn't have to pay for the meal anyway. He then looked at the private room manager and said:
"Hot dishes: black truffle milk mustard cod, A4 Wagyu beef slow-cooked steak, seasonal vegetables in broth; cold dishes: gastrodia elata with garlic, black chicken feet in broth; dessert: avocado bird's nest; and two servings of vegetable and mushroom fried rice. That's all for now."

"Okay, make arrangements immediately."

The private room manager quickly left.

After the other person had walked away, He Jing couldn't help but complain to Zhang Yang: "Did you rob a bank? You ordered so much, and that lousy A4 steak, it costs 740 yuan a serving. If you gave me 740 yuan, I would have chewed it up and fed it to you!"
