Sandalwood Street

Chapter 31 Sandalwood Street

Sandalwood Street.

One of the riverside streets in the center of Xia City, it is only a few hundred meters away from the most prosperous pedestrian street in Xia City.

Due to its location in the riverside scenic belt, there are quite a few pedestrians coming and going here.

After Baili Qingfeng finished his class today, he took a taxi and came here. After asking the taxi to pull over, he got out of the car and stopped at number 101 Sandalwood Street.

This is a six-story building with a courtyard. There are many signs hanging at the entrance of the courtyard, and there are guards on duty. It does not seem to be open to tourists.

Baili Qingfeng glanced at it and quickly found a dessert shop not far from the building.

He ordered a drink and sat down in the dessert shop.

He sat...

For two hours.

During this period, the waiter came several times to ask Baili Qingfeng if he wanted to add anything, but Baili Qingfeng refused.

The sky gradually darkened...

"Ding Ling!"

The doorbell rang.

A group of men and women walked in from outside.

Baili Qingfeng glanced at the group and focused on the two women.

The two women were wearing the same style of flowing long skirts, one in cyan and the other in blue, full of youthful beauty, like a charming landscape.

The dessert shop was not big. When his eyes fell on the two women, they also saw him.

Immediately, one of the women called out happily: "Qingfeng, little brother, you are here too."

"Qin Lanshan."

Baili Qingfeng said, then looked at Gu Lingying: "Are you shopping?"

"Yes."

Qin Lanshan said, leaning forward: "Qingfeng, little brother, you haven't come to our school to find us during this time, and Yun Jie said that you haven't been to Shuiyun Yayun either. We still miss your musical talent."

"I've been busy with something recently and haven't had time, but if you often go to Shuiyun Yayun, I'll go there when I have time."

"Then let's make an appointment. How about every Saturday afternoon? We want to go shopping on Sundays, so Saturday morning or afternoon is best."

"As long as you have time, I'm available."

Baili Qingfeng nodded.

"That's great."

Qin Lanshan said happily, turning to Gu Lingying: "Yingzi, what do you think?"

Gu Lingying smiled and nodded: "Sure, that works."

After she finished speaking, her gaze fell on Baili Qingfeng: "Senior Qingfeng, do you have any new masterpieces recently?"

"I do have a duet."

"Wow, really?"

Qin Lanshan's beautiful eyes lit up instantly: "It's a pity that Little Yingzi didn't bring her Xiao today, otherwise we would have been in for a treat."

"It's okay, today is Thursday, isn't the day after tomorrow Saturday? Senior Qingfeng, will you be available then?"

Gu Lingying also had a hint of anticipation on her face.

"Of course."

Baili Qingfeng nodded slightly: "I'll be waiting to learn from Junior Sister Gu's Xiao playing skills then."

"Senior Qingfeng's piano skills are truly amazing. Even now, Senior Qingfeng's lingering piano music still echoes in my mind."

Gu Lingying said with a smile.

Seeing the two of them talking, among the other three people accompanying them, one woman and two men, a handsome and elegant man asked with a smile: "Lingying, Lanshan, you haven't introduced this junior to me yet."

"This is Baili Qingfeng, a sophomore from Xia'er University next door."

Qin Lanshan said spontaneously, and at the same time said to Baili Qingfeng: "Qingfeng, this is Su Wei, a senior in our school, and these two are my roommate Nicole and her childhood sweetheart friend Gude."

"Hello."

Baili Qingfeng asked politely.

"Hello, Junior Qingfeng."

Su Wei nodded with a faint smile: "Junior, have you been sitting here for a while? Waiting for someone? Being in a dessert shop, you must be waiting for a female friend, right?"

Baili Qingfeng glanced at Su Wei: "Tired, taking a rest."

"Is that so... Resting in a dessert shop, Junior Qingfeng's hobby is a bit unique. I thought only girls liked to visit dessert shops when they were alone."

Su Wei continued to maintain his smile.

Baili Qingfeng didn't say anything more.

This attitude made the smile on Su Wei's face become a little stiff.

"Baili Qingfeng."

At this time, Gude, who was Nicole's boyfriend, seemed to have thought of something and said: "Baili Qingfeng from Xia'er University, Junior Baili Qingfeng should know Gule, right?"

"I know him, he's one of my roommates."

"That's right then."

Gude said, looking at Baili Qingfeng: "Hehe..."

He didn't say anything more.

Seeing his tone, Su Wei keenly sensed something and immediately asked: "What is it, Gude? Do you know each other?"

"It's nothing, Gule is my cousin. I just happened to hear some stories about Junior Baili Qingfeng from him."

Gude said to Nicole, Qin Lanshan, Gu Lingying, and the others, "What kind of desserts would you like to eat? It's my treat. After we finish, let's continue strolling around."

"What deeds?"

Su Wei smiled again and said, "What's wrong with Junior Qingfeng?"

"Let's not talk about it."

Gude said lightly, his gaze towards Baili Qingfeng somewhat indifferent.

"Tell us, I'm curious too."

Nicole added.

"Then I'll tell you. You should know about the big incident that happened at Xia'er University a few months ago, right? At that time, many students at Xia'er University spontaneously went to the Aurora Consulate to hold a sit-in demonstration. My cousin Gule was one of them. He invited Junior Baili Qingfeng to go, but Junior Baili Qingfeng refused. And on the same day, when the students of Xia'er University clashed with those from Aurora, my cousin and Baili Qingfeng were also at the scene. At that time, my cousin wanted to rush up to help, but Baili Qingfeng pulled him away."

Gude said.

Although his words were a relatively objective account of the two events, without any slander, it was not difficult to hear from his words...

A label of cowardice and timidity was attached to Baili Qingfeng.

"The Xia'er University incident was quite a big deal. Although the school did not explicitly support the students' sit-in demonstration, the temporary holiday was the best default. I heard about it and rushed to the consulate to show my support. After all, we are all part of Xia, and even if the students of Xia'er University are suffering, we should stand up and contribute our strength at this time. It's a pity that when I arrived, Councilor York had already resolved the matter."

Su Wei said with some surprise.

Baili Qingfeng glanced at Su Wei, who looked surprised, and then at Qin Lanshan, who frowned slightly. Just as he was about to say something, a car drove out of the courtyard at number 101.

Since the car window was open, Baili Qingfeng could clearly see Eddie, the head of the Stability Maintenance Group, sitting in the car.

"Sorry, I have something to do. I have to go."

Baili Qingfeng said, quickly left the dessert shop, and soon came to the side of the taxi he had chartered.

Getting into the car, the taxi started and quickly disappeared without a trace.

"There are several direct buses to Xia'er University from here. Taking a taxi is not an economically sound choice. It seems that this Junior Qingfeng's family is not bad. No wonder he didn't rashly intervene in the Xia'er University sit-in demonstration. He probably pays more attention to protecting himself, but the people who come from real big families should understand what things to do and what not to do."

Seeing Baili Qingfeng hurriedly get into the taxi and leave, Su Wei said with a smile.

Then he turned to Gu Lingying and said, "Okay, let's order something to eat. Lingying, and Lanshan, what would you like to eat?"

"I'm a little tired after shopping for half an afternoon. I don't want to shop anymore, Little Yingzi, let's go back."

Qin Lanshan said.

Gu Lingying looked at the direction Baili Qingfeng's car left and nodded, "It's almost evening, it's time to go back to school, let's go back together then."

The two said, and said to Nicole, "Then we'll go back first, let's go shopping together when we have the chance."

After speaking, they politely nodded to Gude and Su Wei, and went straight out the door.

"Lingying, Lanshan, why are you leaving? Don't you want to shop anymore? I've already booked a restaurant..."

Su Wei was about to say something, but Nicole interrupted him, "Don't call them."

After speaking, she shouted to the two who had already walked out of the dessert shop, "Wait a minute, let's go back together."

As she was about to follow out the door, she paused slightly and glanced at Su Wei, "Lingying and Lanshan are not very old, but they are very smart. Do you think they can't see your purpose of discrediting Junior Qingfeng? Your approach is not only useless, but will also leave them with an impression of narrow-mindedness. It's really self-defeating."

After saying that, she quickly followed them out.

Seeing the three people leave without any hesitation, the expression on Su Wei's originally handsome face immediately turned ugly.
