A figure with an incredible body stood before her. Her fitted jeans showed off her long legs, while her red, white, and blue plaid shirt radiated youthful energy.
Her rolled-up sleeves revealed fair forearms, giving her an air of competence. Her waist was slender, her breasts full beneath the clouds, and her exquisite oval face had delicate features and striking beauty.
Her smooth, lustrous long hair was an eye-catching wine red, alluring and sexy.
If one had to describe her, she was a stunning beauty with a perfect figure, perfect looks, and perfect temperament, standing there graceful and poised.
Like a fresh, gorgeous rose.
She spoke to Wang Ji with a perfectly measured smile on her face.
But Qi Lin subconsciously felt that the other woman's gaze had looked her over once—or perhaps more than once.
Her cheeks were still flushed from joking with Wang Ji, and her eyes held a trace of moisture brought on by laughter and embarrassment.
Qi Lin subconsciously smiled shyly, then introduced herself with a blush. "Hello, I'm Qi Lin. I used to be a police officer."
The wine-haired beauty nodded and replied, "Du Qiangwei."
Du Qiangwei... Qi Lin silently repeated the name to herself. She truly lived up to it.
"You handle your own business. I'll take her there."
Wang Ji looked at Du Qiangwei and smiled. "Officer Qi Lin is a good friend of mine. I'll make the arrangements."
Qi Lin quietly held her suitcase and smiled as she stood behind Wang Ji, seeming like a quiet, obedient new student.
"You'll arrange it?" Du Qiangwei glanced at Wang Ji indifferently, the corner of her lips twitching in clear disbelief. "Other than fooling around, what are you good at? It'd be impressive enough if you could take care of yourself, and you think you can arrange things for someone else?
Besides, what kind of sense does it make for a boy to arrange a girl's dorm room?
Qi Lin, right? I'm in charge here. Come with me."
She gave Qi Lin a look, then turned and led the way.
After getting roasted, Wang Ji helplessly spread his hands. Under Qi Lin's amused gaze, he awkwardly scratched his head.
Then he hurried after them, took the suitcase from Qi Lin's hand, and followed behind them.
"Hehehehe! What are you doing?"
At the door of a room in the row dormitories.
Du Qiangwei quickly stretched out a hand to block a certain shameless fellow who was following behind them and trying to enter the room. Her expression darkened. "It's a girl's room. You're a grown man, and you're just lifting your leg to walk in without a word? Where's your shame?"
"Right here." Wang Ji pointed at his handsome face and chuckled. "You don't know this, but Qi Lin and I are good friends. We've been through life-and-death situations together... Besides, I'm carrying her suitcase.
Let me go in. I'll help tidy up. There's a lot of dust in there."
As he spoke, he tried to squeeze his way inside.
"Thank you for the kind offer." Qi Lin turned and came out of the room, smiling as she raised a palm in refusal. She pulled her suitcase over and smiled faintly. "I still haven't repaid you for saving my life. How could I dare trouble you with such a huge favor again?"
She set the suitcase inside the room, then turned and stepped back out.
Then she smiled at Du Qiangwei and said, "It's almost noon. Du Qiangwei, why don't you come eat with us?"
Wang Ji stood there nonchalantly, like a well-behaved child waiting to be taken away and fed.
Though he was over six feet tall, with his hands in his pockets and his bored tiptoeing, his natural Male God aura always made him seem a little childish.
"I'll pass for now."
Du Qiangwei first looked at Wang Ji, then shook her head. "I haven't finished receiving the other students yet. You two go on ahead. And don't forget, gather in the classroom at eight tonight."
After saying that, she glanced at Wang Ji once more, nodded to Qi Lin, and turned back the way she had come.
Wang Ji waved from afar. "Bye~"
"Tch~" Her voice drifted back without her turning around.
"Let's go. You know the way, so take me to the cafeteria." Qi Lin closed the door behind her and looked up at him.
"My God, we're just going to the cafeteria?" Wang Ji widened his eyes dramatically.
"Just tell me whether you're going or not." Qi Lin looked at him with a faintly amused smile.
"I'm going." Wang Ji nodded obediently, without the slightest reluctance. "Come on, I'll lead the way."
At that, Qi Lin's gaze instantly softened.
She followed his steps, pursed her lips, and smiled. "Don't feel wronged, either. I actually wanted to treat you to a good meal in the city, as a small token of my gratitude.
But thinking about the time, if we changed clothes, took a car, and booked a table, several hours would be gone.
We'd only make it in time for afternoon tea, neither here nor there. If we went in the evening, we might not make it back in time.
I'll treat you another day. During the break, I'll keep treating you until you're satisfied."
"No need." Wang Ji smiled. "I think the cafeteria is pretty good. The food here is even better than outside.
If you treat me another ten or eight times, I'll have everything I could want."
He raised his brows, a mischievous smile on his face.
Qi Lin pursed her lips in a smile, then turned her head away and said with upturned lips, "Dream on~ If you say the cafeteria is enough, then I'll only treat you once. That makes things easier for me."
Her red lips were moist, curved with a hint of pride.
Her beautiful, watery eyes swept over him, and she smiled as she turned her head aside again.
"That's fine too. If you don't treat me, I'll treat you." Wang Ji folded his arms and smiled casually. "If you feel awkward about it, we can split the bill."
Qi Lin burst out laughing and gave him a coquettish glare. "How did I only just discover that you're such a smooth talker? No wonder you attract bees and butterflies..."
"Then are you a bee or a butterfly?" Wang Ji smiled from the corner of his mouth.
"I'm neither. I'm just Qi Lin." Qi Lin gave a light huff.
"Oh, then I'm the Yellow Emperor..."
"What? Oh... an emperor? Wow, you're still dreaming of being emperor?" Qi Lin froze for a moment, then looked at him disdainfully.
"Ahem~" Wang Ji coughed lightly, neither confirming nor denying it. "Come on, we're here."
At the entrance to the cafeteria, the two walked in side by side.
"Hey, am I living with you?"
Only a few minutes after Wang Ji and Qi Lin had left the row dormitories, Du Qiangwei arrived there with Ge Xiao Lun.
The flowers and shrubs outside the corridor were clusters of fragrant pink roses.
Ge Xiao Lun was tall and broad, pulling a suitcase as he followed step for step behind this goddess.
Among the many flowers, she too was a rose.
Her fitted, sexy jeans and elegant plaid shirt made Rose look even more tender than she had yesterday, like those pink roses, like a girl next door.
The girl from his dreams.
And then there was her slender waist swaying with each step, her pair of long, straight legs, her firm and rounded rear...
Hiss!
Ge Xiao Lun blinked with difficulty, tearing his eyes away, then asked the question he cared about most.
"You think that's possible?"
Du Qiangwei slowly turned back, gave him an indifferent glance, and answered blandly.
Her eyes held undisguised contempt.
