Chapter 133 Li Zhenzhen

Jiang Xun had seen the girl in front of him before. At the beginning of the semester, he and his roommate Zhou Ruikai saw several girls in the cafeteria, and she was the prettiest one among them.

He remembered that he made eye contact with her, and the girl seemed a little shy.

Later, I saw her military training photos on the forum. Those bored students voted her the most beautiful freshman at Peking University and even paired her with Jiang Xun, the most famous freshman, as a couple, even though the two didn't know each other at all.

However, it was clear that they had all heard of each other's names and seen each other's photos, so they recognized each other immediately upon meeting.

"Hello, I'm Li Zhenzhen from the Chinese Department of Peking University." The girl introduced herself to Jiang Xun in Mandarin, afraid that Jiang Xun wouldn't understand the Chongqing dialect.

Although the girl still had a hint of shyness in her eyes, her demeanor was poised and confident, not as reserved as one might expect.

"For her sake, I am but a dream lover; I yearn to call upon her in the quiet night, as if seeking her true self in a painting?" Jiang Xun subconsciously thought of this line of poetry and casually uttered it.

The girl's face flushed slightly for some reason; she had a naive thought when she was younger—

She would date any boy who could recite this poem the first time he heard her name.

Although she now thinks it's quite childish, she was still a little surprised and shy that the boy in front of her could recite this poem so quickly.

"My name is Jiang Xun, from Yuanpei College. Actually, my home is in Yin County, which is right next to Shancheng. It's very close." Jiang Xun introduced himself in dialect, because Yin County and Shancheng are adjacent and their dialects are quite similar.

"Really? I thought you were from a big city." Li Zhenzhen smiled slightly, revealing two faint dimples.

Jiang Xun helped Li Zhenzhen put away her luggage, and the two sat on their beds, chatting idly across a small table.

They were all on the lower bunks, and the people on the upper bunks hadn't arrived yet, making it relatively quiet.

Only then did Jiang Xun take a good look at this girl from Sichuan and Chongqing.

She huddled with her knees together inside her dark blue jeans, the open collar of her white shirt revealing a gray cotton undershirt, her chest full and seemingly quite well-endowed.

Her ponytail, with its slightly curled ends, was tied with a simple white hair tie. Her oval face was completely free of makeup, yet her skin remained as fair as if she had applied foundation.

When her eyelids droop, her eyelashes cast butterfly-like shadows on her porcelain-white cheeks. Occasionally, when she raises her eyes, they reflect the flowing spring colors outside the window, like obsidian just dredged from the Jialing River.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the car window, casting dappled gold spots on her porcelain-white cheeks.

[This may not be a perfect match. If you have any suggestions for a more suitable option, please share them.]

Seemingly noticing Jiang Xun's scrutinizing gaze, Li Zhenzhen's cheeks flushed slightly.

Suddenly, she remembered something, turned around, picked up her small backpack, took out a small box from it, opened it, and found some tea leaves inside. The rich aroma of tea instantly filled the air.

“The tea from Mengding Mountain in my hometown is really delicious, do you want to ask me for some?” She looked up, her clear eyes sparkling like autumn water.

The Sichuan accent, with its honey-like ending tone, makes each word seem to gently swirl on the tip of the tongue.

"Water from the Yangtze River, tea from the top of Meng Mountain, very famous! I've never tried it before." Jiang Xun's gaze fell on the tea leaves in her hand, then he asked:
"I heard that tea-picking girls have to pick the buds before the dew dries completely, so that the tea leaves picked that way are the best?"

“Yes.” Li Zhenzhen nodded. “Grandpa said that dew is the moon’s tears for the tea tree, and only when it touches the tree can it produce a sweet aftertaste.” After saying that, she laughed first, her eyes curving into two small bridges.

She then got up to fetch hot water to brew tea, leaving Jiang Xun with a slender and graceful back view. Jiang Xun suddenly felt that the journey of twenty or thirty hours might not be so boring after all.

Passengers boarded the train one after another. Jiang Xun and his companion had a middle-aged couple in the upper berth of their carriage. They were both clean and well-mannered, which made them secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Perhaps because Jiang Xun also came from a small town like herself, and their dialects were similar, Li Zhenzhen seemed more talkative.

Along the way, you could occasionally hear her soft and playful dialect, and sometimes you could hear her speaking clear and crisp Mandarin.

When she got hungry, she would take out snacks she made at home, such as salted duck eggs and fried potato chips, to share with Jiang Xun.

However, when Jiang Xun offered to buy her water and food, she refused, because she brought everything herself and felt it was a waste of money.

If we eat the food Jiang Xun bought, it might spoil if she keeps it for too long, which would be a real shame.

The 20-30 hour journey brought Jiang Xun and Li Zhenzhen much closer together.

But it's clear that the young girl always kept her distance from Jiang Xun. Even when they arrived in Beijing, she split the taxi fare from the train station to Peking University with Jiang Xun.

If she hadn't been with Jiang Xun, she would have taken the bus back to school. Although it only cost her a few extra dollars, it still made her feel bad for a while.

Although her chance encounter with Jiang Xun was indeed quite serendipitous, she considered it just a minor episode in the story and didn't take it too seriously.

After all, besides attending classes diligently, she also had to work part-time to earn money, leaving her no time to think about anything else.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xun didn't really take this matter to heart. He was currently preparing to do something else—build a website.

After returning to his dorm, he ate out with some roommates, and then quickly went back to his dorm to prepare for creating the website.

Building a website first requires buying a domain name, and then renting virtual space or a server, which are all trivial matters for Jiang Xun.

He went to a domain name marketplace and searched for some domain names and URLs. Almost all of the ones he could think of had been registered, but there were also some that hadn't been registered, such as fqxs (Tomato Novels), douyin, kuaishou, and so on.

He registered for every available account in one go, spending nearly a few thousand yuan, which was insignificant to him, but could bring him huge profits in the future.

After all, even in this day and age, there are records of domain names selling for millions of yuan.

Jiang Xun planned to use fqxs.com as his website domain name. After the domain name was decided, the next step was to rent a server. At this time, Alibaba Cloud had already launched cloud computing services, which could be rented directly for a fee.

With these two things, the rest, like building a website or writing a window program, is a piece of cake for Jiang Xun, and he can do it in no time.

What was more troublesome for him was handling various procedures. He was not familiar with the capital and did not know any locals, so he couldn't find anyone suitable to help him.

However, the senior counselor is definitely the first choice. She has been in Beijing for two or three years and should be quite familiar with the city.
