Chapter 104: Meeting a Netizen
Chapter 104: Meeting a Netizen
Sorry for procrastinating again~
Liu Man wasn’t sure of Jiang Chengfeng’s intention. So, to be safe, she brought Li Xiaoru with her, who looked very surprised when she heard they were going to meet a netizen.
“You are going to meet a netizen! This is magical and so unexpected. It is so not your style!”
Liu Man covered Li Xiaoru’s mouth and glanced around. They were having physical education right now. This semester, she and Li Xiaoru both chose basketball. The only reason why girls would choose basketball was that it was easy to pass basketball exams.
Wang Nina, however, chose tennis with Xu Zihan.
Li Xiaoru got out of her constraints and pulled Liu Man under an available basketball hoop, “Which netizen are you meeting? Do I know him or her?”
“His nickname is Otaku Boy. I don’t know if you still remember him or not.”
“Holy, of course, I remember him. Isn’t he that pervert who stares at our legs all the time? Do you dare meet such a type in person? Are you out of your mind?”
Li Xiaoru pulled on Liu Man’s arm, “I will not agree to you meeting him.”
“I’ve already agreed, and it’s bad for me to go against my promise. Besides, I don’t think Otaku Boy seems like a bad person.”
“You’re not yourself with this live-stream business,” Li Xiaoru stared at Liu Man’s delicate face, “All right, all right. If you want to see him, then let’s go. I will protect you. He will not dare to do anything in front of our school, not to mention I’ll be there.”
At 5:50 the next day, Liu Man and Li Xiaoru walked out of their school and went to Starbucks. At this time, it was the rush hour when students would flow out from the school. There were crowds everywhere. Fortunately, not much attention was on Liu Man like before.
In this month, there was no new content related to “Hanfu Goddess.” She didn’t create any gossip to make herself popular, either. There were new and prominent cyber stars on the internet every day. Gradually, internet users forgot about her.
Besides, she was also a student. The classmates of Liu Man would always be able to see her on campus, and so the fresh feeling quickly went away.
At this time, Jiang Chengfeng sent her a message, “I’m already here, and I’m standing beside the street lamp in front of Starbucks. I’m wearing jeans, a black jacket, and dark blue colored metal-frame glasses.”
Liu Man replied, “Okay.”
Liu Man saw a boy that fits Jiang Chengfeng’s descriptions from far away. He was standing under the streetlamp, and his hands were in a small bag. Jiang Chengfeng seemed a bit awkward facing the crowds of students, and he kicked the stones under feet at times. Sometimes, he would lift his head to stare at the birds on the street lamp.
He didn’t look weird or fat at all.
TL’s Note: Since his nickname’s Otaku Boy…
As they walked closer to the boy, Liu Man realized his face looked a bit handsome.
Li Xiaoru looked in the direction Liu Man was staring at and said surprisingly, “It cannot be! He’s Otaku Boy?”
Liu Man nodded, “Most likely.”
“Eh, I can only say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. He looks quite good but talks like a pervert online. Such a weird person.”
Jiang Chengfeng noticed the stares from two girls. He turned around, and out of pure instincts from a man, his first glance landed, naturally, on the beautiful Liu Man.
He swore in his mind. Isn’t this girl “Hanfu Goddess”?!
So the girl with a sweater on was… Princess Man? No wonder Coco kept on looking at Princess Man’s camera that day when she live-streamed at the pedestrian mall. So Princess Man was a friend of “Hanfu Goddess.”
Jiang Chengfeng studied Li Xiaoru.
She didn’t look ugly,
She was about the same height as “Hanfu Goddess.” She had as good a stature as “Hanfu Goddess,” her legs were pretty long, and her long hair was black. The only thing was her face, and her mouth was a bit big in size. Her eyes were huge and bright, which looked very pretty. At least she looked beautiful to him and was the type he liked.
Jiang Chengfeng felt his heart beating faster and faster. If she was Princess Man, he would want to chase for her love. But he treated Princess Man as an idol! How could he dare to chase after his idol?
Just when Jiang Chengfeng was debating with himself, the two girls walked up to him. Li Xiaoru asked him in an antagonistic tone, “Are you Otaku Boy?”
Jiang Chengfeng hurriedly nodded and quickly answered his “idol”, “Ye…Yes, sis. He… Hello.”
He was stuttering from his anxiety, and he didn’t even dare to look into Li Xiaoru’s eyes. His nervous, careful expression surprised both Liu Man and Li Xiaoru, and they thought he looked a bit cute.
Jiang Chengfeng knew he was a coward. He loved flaunting and bragging in front of his friends, and he could argue against netizens for nights. But when he was facing a girl, he would be a complete coward.
Liu Man realized that he was blushing.
There was a boy who was even timider than her!
How could such a person be a villain? Liu Man and Li Xiaoru let their guard down, and Li Xiaoru asked,
“What do you need with Man Man?”
“I’ll say more when we get into Starbucks…”
Jiang Chengfeng was halfway through his words before he suddenly got stuck. His eyes quietly shifted from Li Xiaoru to the belle whom he had never dared to look directly. His eyes were confused, enlightened, panicked, and finally shocked. He raised his trembling hand and pointed at Liu Man.
“You-y-you….You’re the real Princess Man.”
Seeing how big his reaction was, Liu Man did not even dare to talk.
Li Xiaoru said, “Of course, you just knew? What are you, an idiot? You even mistook me for Princess Man.”
God, what joke are you playing on me?
Princess Man was the Hanfu Goddess.
Jiang Chengfeng felt a bit dizzy. His body wavered, and he looked as if he was about to faint. Li Xiaoru, who had seen Liu Man blackout before, quickly helped him.
“Oi, oi, oi, how are you possibly so frail? It’s just a meetup. Do you have to be like that?” Li Xiaoru finished, but thinking that she shouldn’t provoke the sick, she softened her voice and asked, “Are you ok?”
Jiang Chengfeng held the streetlamp and took in a deep breath, “I’m fine, thank you. I’m fine. Sorry, I’m nearsighted. I couldn’t see your appearances just now, and I thought you were another person.”
Li Xiaoru released him, “Look at you, do you still need to go into Starbucks to talk?”
His mind finally cleared when he thought about it, and said sincerely, “Of course, of course, this is an extremely important notice.”
So the two girls and the boy went into Starbucks.
The trio each ordered a cup of coffee. The girls wanted their drinks to be hot while Jiang Chengfeng wanted his drink to be iced. They also ordered desserts and Papani. Jiang Chengfeng was the one who paid for this afternoon tea.
They sat around the round table, and Jiang Chengfeng took a sip of his iced coffee to wake his mind and thought of the notice his professor told him. He had to gain his courage again and looked at the beautiful girl who made him feel so much pressure.
