Chapter 299: Chapter 300 Shen Yue’s Invitation

"Big Brother Song, I’m returning to school tomorrow and I have quite a lot to carry. I can’t manage it alone, can you drive me there?"

"No problem!" Song Xiaodong agreed readily, but he then felt that Shen Yue’s reason seemed more like an excuse for a date. However, since he had already spoken, he naturally wouldn’t go back on his word.

Shen Yue immediately said happily, "Thank you! Then come pick me up tomorrow morning, I’ll have everything ready in advance."

The next morning, Song Xiaodong went directly to Shen Yue’s house. Shen Dongyang and Ma Dongxiang had both gone to work, leaving only Shen Yue at home.

Shen Yue let Song Xiaodong in but soon felt a bit embarrassed, holding her chest, she said, "Ah, Big Brother Song, you arrived so early. I thought you would come a bit later, I haven’t even changed my clothes yet."

Initially, Song Xiaodong hadn’t noticed, but with Shen Yue’s mention, he couldn’t help but glance at her clothes. She wore a summer home dress, a floral thin cotton, not see-through, but definitely revealing a lot of skin. Coupled with Shen Yue’s somewhat shy demeanor, she indeed looked quite tempting.

Song Xiaodong chuckled lightly, teasing Shen Yue, "Ha, you’re not planning to wear that to school, are you? If you did, I guess the boys at your school would go crazy for you."

Shen Yue lightly hit Song Xiaodong’s arm then quickly hugged her chest, saying, "Big Brother Song, you’re so naughty. If I went out like this, I’d die of embarrassment. How could I face anyone after that?"

Song Xiaodong laughed, "Then you better hurry and change your clothes."

Shen Yue agreed and quickly ran into the bedroom. In less than five minutes, she changed into a casual sports outfit and walked out with her hair tied back in a ponytail.

"Big Brother Song, how do I look?" Shen Yue puffed out her chest and asked with a smile.

"With Shen Yue being so beautiful, do you even need to ask?" Song Xiaodong said with a smile.

"Don’t just brush it off like that, you haven’t even taken a good look!" Shen Yue pouted.

"Alright, let me see." Song Xiaodong rubbed his chin, looked Shen Yue up and down, then nodded, saying, "Not bad at all. If I had to use one word to describe it... it would be ’innocence’. Yes, ’innocence’, with a strong youthful vibe."

A smile immediately appeared on Shen Yue’s face, but she still seemed slightly unsatisfied, "Is that all?"

"And... oh yes, natural. This is pure natural beauty. Pure natural beauty... Suddenly I think, those who are average-looking could become beauties with the right makeup, but if you put some effort into your makeup, you’d be absolutely stunning, a true beauty that overshadows even the moon and shames the flowers."

Shen Yue blushed from Song Xiaodong’s lavish praise, but inside she felt thrilled. Still, she remained a modest girl, twisting her waist a bit and bashfully said, "Big Brother Song, you’re exaggerating. I’m not that good... "

Song Xiaodong burst into laughter, "Not at all, not at all. Come, let’s go, our top-tier beauty, I’ll take you to school."

Shen Yue indeed had quite a lot of things to carry, aside from her clothing and such, the most important were a bunch of snacks—dried fruits, small snacks, and the like, filling up two large bags.

"You’re bringing so many snacks. Do you want to become a little pig?" Song Xiaodong asked with a laugh.

"It’s not for me, it’s for my roommates. We haven’t seen each other for a holiday, so of course, I should bring them something tasty."

Song Xiaodong "oh"ed, saying, "Going to university really does sound nice. Too bad I never went to one, today will be a good chance to see what it’s like."

Shen Yue immediately said with excitement, "Great, then today I’ll take you on a good tour around, our university’s scenery is quite nice."

Song Xiaodong knew that Shen Yue was always low-key, and people in the school did not know that she was the vice mayor’s daughter. Naturally, it wasn’t appropriate to drive the Ferrari, so he and Shen Yue took a taxi, and after a little over twenty minutes, they arrived at Tiannan Normal University.

Upon reaching the gate, cars were not allowed to enter, so Song Xiaodong and Shen Yue could only carry their bags big and small into the campus.

The campus was bustling with vibrant young people, and seeing them all carefree made Song Xiaodong envious as he said, "The regret of my life is that I never attended university."

Shen Yue seemed quite dismissive as she replied, "What’s so great about attending university? Nowadays, it’s too easy to get into one, and not many people actually come here to study; most are here to play, staying up all night playing games, or else they’re dating."

"That’s not bad either, I wish I could have played as well, date a girl, now that would be really cool."

"Big Brother Song, you’re so bad!" Shen Yue pouted and playfully scolded, "So many people like you already, and you still want to date girls."

Song Xiaodong laughed heartily and said, "It’s different, right? Dating girls in university must feel unique."

Shen Yue turned to look at Song Xiaodong, her cheeks suddenly flushed red, she bit her lip and whispered, "If you really want that kind of experience, then I... could cooperate with you a bit."

Song Xiaodong could certainly tell what Shen Yue meant, and he coughed lightly and said, "Let’s forget it then, I can’t live in the school every day, and even if you cooperate, it would still lack a certain feeling."

"Oh..." Shen Yue sounded somewhat disappointed.

The two then fell silent for a while, but fortunately, they soon arrived at the dormitory building where Shen Yue lived. Shen Yue stopped and said, "Big Brother Song, men are not allowed in the female dormitory, I’ll call my roommate to come down and help me with the things."

"Hmm." Song Xiaodong nodded, and then Shen Yue made a phone call. It wasn’t long before two girls came running down from the building. Song Xiaodong recognized them as the two he had met last time in the hospital, one was Liu Feiyan and the other was Li Yuting.

"Ha, I say Shen Yue, you’ve brought your boyfriend along this time, huh? Have we caught you out, and now you can’t hide him?" Li Yuting teased Shen Yue with a giggly voice.

Shen Yue’s face turned red, and she glanced at Song Xiaodong and said, "He just happened to be free today."

Liu Feiyan immediately chimed in, "Since that’s the case, just bringing this little stuff won’t do, handsome guy must treat us to a meal today."

Shen Yue looked towards Song Xiaodong, her gaze somewhat uneasy; her roommate’s request clearly made Song Xiaodong uncomfortable.

Song Xiaodong smiled and said, "No problem, it’s just a meal, I can afford that."

"Oh yeah!" Liu Feiyan and Li Yuting instantly cheered excitedly.

Just as they were discussing where to eat, a black Porsche Cayenne drove up and stopped right beside them. A girl about the same age as Shen Yue jumped out of the car, pompously saying, "Letting Shen Yue treat you to one of those small restaurants is so shameful. Come on, today’s the first day of school and I’m happy, I will take you out for a big meal."

Song Xiaodong frowned slightly. Although this girl was also pretty, she clearly lacked Shen Yue’s grace, and her sharp manner of speaking was instantly off-putting.
