Super God-Level Top Student

Chapter 623 - 253: Running Towards Each Other_3



...

After receiving Chen Yiwen's message on WeChat, Ben Ronny felt flattered and a little overwhelmed.

Excitement mixed with a faint sense of unease.

Could it be that Chen Yiwen was a double-dealer who had taken a liking to him?

As everyone knows, many geniuses have some odd hobbies. Otherwise, Ben Ronny couldn't explain why Chen Yiwen, clearly on a date with his girlfriend, would invite him to lunch especially when his girlfriend had shown apparent disinterest in him.

This was really strange.

It was also a relief it was just lunch. If Chen Yiwen had invited him to dinner, Ben Ronny would have been even more troubled.

A scholarship of sixty thousand US dollars was nothing; he didn't think that amount of money could make him sell all his dignity.

Let a yellow-skinned monkey...

Okay, he couldn't continue that thought.

After reading the message, Ben Ronny even decided to skip having a shower and went straight to the meeting.

"Of course I'm free. Actually, I wanted to invite you for a meal as well. You are the star of the school, after all. I just thought you'd be with your girlfriend?"

"Haha, what's the fun in hanging around women all the time? It only slows down our sword-drawing speed. I'm quite interested in your cultural life and international student classes, so it's a good chance to chat."

"No problem, so where shall we go? The school cafeteria?"

"What's there to eat in the school cafeteria? I'll take you to a braised lamb head restaurant, the flavor is simply amazing! Plus, they have private booths, convenient for chatting."

"Alright, where shall we meet?"

"North Gate."

"Got it, I'll be there in twenty minutes."

"Ok! I'll also be there around that time."

Chat ended, and Ben Ronny was annoyed...

Why do Huaxia people always like to eat weird stuff like sheep heads, pig tongues, duck necks, and so on? What about eating something normal like roasted lamb leg?

And what did that guy mean by saying it's convenient to talk in a private booth?

But thinking of what might happen if he failed to complete the mission tasked by "home", he decided he should indulge them.

After all, his opportunities were not plentiful.

Okay, Ben Ronny could never have guessed that "home" had saddled him with the task in a try-and-see attitude, because all the competent people were already taken, and they didn't have high hopes for him to begin with.

If he knew all this, he probably wouldn't be so concerned.

But who would have thought the world's affairs could be so coincidental?

Often, the wheel of the world's fate is indeed turned by the seemingly insignificant.

It's just that at that time, nobody would have thought of it.

...

He said twenty minutes, but it took Ben Ronny only fifteen minutes to reach the school's South Gate.

For matters related to one's future, no one dares to be negligent.

He ended up waiting at the South Gate for nearly ten minutes before he saw Chen Yiwen strolling over.

Okay, that's very impolite.

Wasn't it said that Huaxia men are always punctual?

Still, Ben Ronny maintained a radiant smile and greeted him.

"Hi, Chen Yiwen, over here."

"Oh, Ronnie, you're quick. I thought you'd take a while."

"Bike-sharing, a great invention of the Huaxia people!" Ben Ronny pointed to the bike he had parked.

"Eh? International students can use those too?"

"Uh, international students are also students of the school."

"Haha, right, let's go. Today, I'm treating you to lamb head."

"No, no, no, I should be the one treating you. After all, it's my honor to be friends with you."

"Well, if you say so... okay then, but next time, you can't fight me for the bill."

Chen Yiwen said somewhat reluctantly.

But this attitude still made Ben Ronny feel even worse.

The school's star student, not polite at all? Totally different from the Huaxia people he knew.

"Okay, stop daydreaming. I'm telling you, that place's lamb head is simply delicious! Let's go quickly."

...

"Boss, start with ten braised lamb heads, and also a lamb spine hotpot. Oh right, do you have Moutai here?... No? The only white liquor you have is Xifeng? Then Xifeng it is. The kind that doesn't give you a headache."

"Umm, Chen Yiwen, actually I don't really like lamb head. Aren't we ordering too many? We probably can't finish them all, right?"

"Ah... how do you know you don't like it if you've never tried it? Just try it, you'll fall in love with it! And if we can't finish it, it's okay, I'll take the leftovers back. The brothers in my dorm are all fond of this! Right, boss?"

"That's right, my lamb heads are damn delicious, they'll knock your socks off. You, little foreigner, try it once and you're sure to remember it."

...

And so, Ben Ronny followed Chen Yiwen into the private booth almost in a daze, his mind foggy.

He felt as though he wasn't being professional enough.

It seemed like Chen Yiwen was leading him by the nose.

But from Chen Yiwen's perspective, he was also innocent.

According to Lv Bei, he probably couldn't indulge in honey traps; even if someone sent him money, he would still have to turn it in. But they couldn't make him regurgitate the food and drink, right? He couldn't pass up this kind of opportunity; it would be too unfair to himself.

Moreover, swindling some money from foreigners would also help stimulate the consumption of nearby restaurants. Ensuring the business of a boss who could cook a tasty lamb head prospered, could also be considered a good deed.

Of course, Chen Yiwen was a man of loyalty.

He couldn't let Ben Ronny feel that the money was completely wasted, so upon entering the private room, he began to speak in such a startling way.

"Ronnie, I'm costing you today. But to tell you the truth, I really envy you, being born in the free world, everything is so free. Not like me, ah, I've been repressed all my life. I might look glorious outside, giving speeches every day. In fact, in the project group, I only get bullied. I still envy your place where everyone truly practices equality."
