Since it was still early, Tang Feng was in no rush to head to Qianda Plaza as mentioned by Song Lele.
He simply went to a nearby stadium, spent the afternoon boxing, and worked up quite a sweat.
As the time was almost right, he then jogged home, took a shower, and changed into clean clothes before heading out.
Qianda Plaza was only three to four kilometers away from where he lived, which wasn’t far, so he didn’t take a taxi. Instead, he rode a shared bike there.
Even though he was now a multimillionaire, he still maintained his good habits of frugality.
Well, when you’re broke and save money, it’s called frugality.
When you’re rich and save money, it’s actually called being stingy.
Of course, saving money was only one reason.
Even more importantly, it was July; riding a bicycle offered him the chance to appreciate the great view of fair legs along the way.
Taking a taxi would mean missing out on a lot of scenery.
Just as he was leisurely cycling and enjoying the “scenery”, a girl walking about twenty meters ahead to his right suddenly caught his eye.
This girl had the fairest legs… cough, I mean, the most beautiful scenery.
She wore a simple white floral T-shirt, a black suspender skirt, and a pair of white canvas shoes.
A very basic outfit, but it gave off a very refreshing vibe.
Although she was facing away and he couldn’t see her features clearly, Tang Feng still found himself breathing rapidly.
He was just about to pedal hard to catch up and have a look at her face,
but then he noticed a man on an electric scooter about ten meters behind the girl.
This person had one hand on the handlebars of the scooter and the other holding a phone to his ear, moving very slowly.
But Tang Feng noticed his eyes were fixed on the girl, he wasn’t on the phone at all, but rather tailing her.
Damn, had he stumbled upon a scooter pervert?
As a good citizen who always took it as his duty to step up in the face of injustice, how could he not intervene in such a situation?
With that thought, he immediately pedaled fiercely several times, quickly overtaking the man and catching up with the girl.
“Beau…”
He was about to issue a warning when the girl turned her head.
They stared at each other for a second, both dumbfounded.
“Tang Feng?”
“Jiang Zi?”
Both of them exclaimed almost simultaneously, then fell silent, as if both were recalling memories of one another.
Tang Feng’s gaze wandered over Jiang Zi, lingering especially on her long legs.
The graceful young woman in front of him seemed hard to match with the unremarkable girl from his memory.
They had been classmates in high school, with Jiang Zi serving as their class president.
However, she was quite introverted back then, not much for talking to anyone.
Added to the fact that she looked rather ordinary, Tang Feng didn’t have much of an impression of her.
The reason he could call her by her name was that her name was indeed unusual.
Because Taiwanese idol dramas were popular at the time, her name, when heard abruptly, sounded like the Taiwanese pronunciation of “like this”.
During roll call, the classroom would erupt into laughter whenever the teacher called out “Jiang Zi”.
That’s why her name was still fresh in his memory.
After their college entrance exams, they had not seen each other at all.
Of course, they had a class group, but there was hardly any conversation, let alone sharing photos.
It never occurred to him that five years later, the ugly duckling he knew would have transformed into a swan.
“You… had plastic surgery?”
Tang Feng blurted out the question subconsciously and then wanted to slap himself twice. What kind of question was that?
Jiang Zi probably didn’t expect that after five years, the first thing he’d say upon their reunion would be this.
“No, did you?”
As soon as she asked, she realized she had said the wrong thing and hastily covered her mouth.
She really asked without thinking, cross her heart.
Because five years ago, Tang Feng hadn’t fully grown into his looks, especially with that trendy but horrendous hairstyle. It wasn’t right to call it ugly; explosive ugliness would be more accurate.
Seeing him today, he had transformed into quite the handsome man.
There were still traces of the old him, albeit faint.
“You…” She was thinking about what to say next.
But Tang Feng already walked over and wrapped his arm around her shoulder, “Class monitor, I never expected to run into you here, I’m really so happy.”
While he spoke, he shot a look at the follower behind them.
The person indeed stopped the electric scooter and looked over their way with a guarded expression.
Jiang Zi was evidently startled by his abrupt gesture. Her mouth agape, she stared at him like a stunned goose.
“Why are you staring at me like that? Don’t you recognize me anymore?” Tang Feng joked while cautioning the follower with his gaze.
The person, realizing they were acquainted, shot him a fierce glance and rode off on the electric scooter.
Only then did Tang Feng breathe a sigh of relief and let her go, “Class monitor, don’t get the wrong idea. Someone was following you.”
Jiang Zi was immediately alarmed and hastily looked back.
She caught sight of the man on the scooter making a hasty retreat, which scared her to the point of turning pale.
“He was actually following me? But I don’t know him. Why would he be following me?”
“What else could it be? Because you’re too beautiful?” Tang Feng took the opportunity to give her a frank once-over, “Class monitor, you’ve changed so much. I almost didn’t recognize you just now. I thought you were some big star.”
“Don’t talk nonsense, how could that be?”
Jiang Zi’s face immediately turned bright red, all the way to her earlobes, and she hurriedly looked down at her toes.
Her bashful look immediately set Mr. Tang’s heart racing, and he subconsciously activated his scanning system.
“Name: Jiang Zi
Gender: Female
Height: 171cm
Vital Statistics: 80/59/82
Beauty: 93 points
Figure: 93 points
Personal information: …”
Yet another breathtakingly beautiful woman.
“Class monitor, where are you heading? Let me give you a ride?” Tang Feng patted the seat of his bicycle.
“Oh, no need. I’m almost home.” Jiang Zi pointed to a residential area not far away.
“Your home is nearby? That’s just too great.” Tang Feng immediately slapped his thigh with delight.
“What’s so great about that?” Jiang Zi clearly did not catch the implication in his words.
“I live nearby too. This means I can see you more often.”
Tang Feng’s words were a bit too direct, lacking any subtlety.
He succeeded in making Jiang Zi blush fiercely again, “Tang Feng, haven’t seen you for years, and your skin has gotten thicker.”
