When Jiang Yulou appeared at the door of the dormitory building, the sharp-eyed Jessica spotted him.
The girl immediately stood up on tiptoes and waved to him excitedly. Regardless of whether there was anyone around her, she spoke loudly in half-baked Chinese: "Yulou, hello!"
Olivia beside the girl was startled by her and shook her head helplessly, but after seeing Jiang Yulou, a smile appeared on her lips and she whispered softly, "Jiang!"
Long time no see, I have good news for you.
Suddenly, the eyes of many people around him gathered.
"Yulou? Jiang? Who the hell is this guy!" This thought came to many people's minds.
A group of male freshmen felt their hearts melting as they watched the foreign girl with a stunning figure speaking Chinese with an exotic accent and waving to say hello to someone who was obviously a domestic boy.
This fair skin, free atmosphere, passionate and bold temperament, and an incredible figure that only exists in imagination...
ah! ! !
Who can withstand this!
Who is called Yulou? It’s so enviable!
A few old students were scratching their heads and couldn't figure out the relationship between their first and last names. "I've never heard of this person. Could it be that he is also an international student and just came here to play?"
Jiang Yulou glanced around the crowd, not showing any signs of stage fright. Compared with him confronting the old writer in person, what was happening now was just a small scene.
In full view of everyone, he put his hands in his pockets and walked steadily towards the two girls.
"That year I put my hands in my pockets and didn't know what my opponent was." A line appeared in his mind.
A little too aggressive!
"hiss!"
Under Jiang Yulou's strong aura, the boys around him unconsciously made way for him.
They think this boy is so handsome, and compared with him, they feel like they are just like me.
Obviously they are all students of Yan University, and they are all the proud ones of heaven.
But compared with this person... I can't accept it!
Soon, the scene that happened next made the surrounding students dizzy.
Jessica rushed forward with a shy smile and gave Jiang Yulou a big hug, "What are you busy with during this time? I wanted to ask you out to dance, but I couldn't find the chance. This time Olivia is here with good news, you want a treat, you can’t refuse it this time.”
Jessica babbled, obviously she had been rejected by Jiang Yulou too many times during this period, and she had a lot of resentment.
"I just finished writing a script and recently bought a house in Yanjing that needs to be cleaned, which has taken up all my free time." Jiang Yulou explained.
Both of them spoke in English and spoke very quickly, so they were not afraid of being overheard by others.
"OMG, you bought a house before you graduated?" Jessica said with envy: "Yulu, you are so awesome. If I want to buy a house, I have to wait a few years after graduation and work."
She then complained: "And you must find a job with a good salary. The bosses in the United States are too stingy."
Olivia walked up to the two of them at this time, nodded slightly to Jiang Yulou, and said, "Jessica, you don't understand what it means for Jiang to buy a house in Yanjing at this age."
She is a reporter and has a lot to cover. She knows all aspects of Yanjing, especially wages and housing prices.
"What?" Jessica looked at her good friend in confusion.
Olivia said: "If an ordinary worker wants to buy a house in Yanjing, he needs to work for a hundred years without eating or drinking!"
"When you know that, it's incredible how young he is."
Olivia looked at Jiang Yulou with her beautiful eyes, feeling a little moved.
"Really? Yulou is great!" Jessica cheered happily.
Jiang Yulou smiled and said helplessly: "Ahem, actually my remuneration is relatively high, so there is no pressure to buy a house."
"This is also brought about by your ability." Olivia pointed out.
"Okay, don't talk about this." Jiang Yulou changed the subject and said, "Let's change the place to talk first."
There were too many people around, they were like monkeys in the zoo now, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Okay." The two girls said calmly.
In the envious eyes of the people around them, the three of them left side by side.
"He looks just...a little handsome, that's all. How can he attract foreign girls?" A student said sourly.
Someone said disdainfully: "Haha, after a long time you don't even know the famous figures in our school."
"Huh?" Everyone looked at the boy.
The student asked: "Yulou, Jiang, don't you think of anyone?"
"Ah, Jiang Yulou!" someone exclaimed.
It was as if a switch in everyone's mind was turned on.
"Damn it, it's that great writer!"
"It's him, no wonder."
"Oh, it's so irritating to compare people to each other."
After knowing that it was Jiang Yulou, they no longer felt jealous.
Now when they looked at the backs of the three of them, they felt that they were a perfect match for some reason!
The three of them finally found a pavilion and sat down.
Although it is silly to sit in the pavilion during this season, at least it is quiet here and you are not afraid of being disturbed.
Just as she sat down, Jessica's pretty face showed an excited expression, "Yulu, let me tell you some good news. Your short story "The Last Man" was accepted by an American science fiction magazine!"
Jiang Yulou's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "Oh? Really? Is it that magazine?"
Jessica said to Yourong, "I was accepted by Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine. If you don't believe me, ask Olivia."
"Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine" is an American magazine founded in 1977 and has great influence.
So Jiang Yulou looked at the more mature and beautiful female reporter.
Olivia nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It's absolutely true, they have already sent a check for a total of six hundred US dollars."
Cheque?
A check for just $600? Jiang Yulou cursed in his heart.
But the remuneration is quite a lot. After all, "The Last Man" only has a few words in it?
It was beyond his expectation that it could be sold at this price.
Olivia continued: "I have taken out the six hundred dollars and exchanged them for your country's currency. The total is three thousand yuan."
"Wait, why are there so many?" Jiang Yulou asked confused.
This year the U.S. dollar exchange rate for RMB is 1:1.5, so six hundred U.S. dollars should only be exchanged for nine hundred yuan.
Olivia blinked, "I have some channels, you know."
"Thank you." Jiang Yulou thanked him sincerely.
It’s just... I feel a little sorry for the bank.
However, a bank with a lot of money would not miss him this little money, and it was not something he took the initiative to exchange.
Therefore, he is not worried and has no psychological burden. The main thing is to have peace of mind.
Olivia took out his royalties directly from the bag, which was three thousand in total, no more, no less.
It was an unexpected surprise. Jiang Yulou smiled and collected the money.
"Thank you." He thanked him again.
"Don't forget what you promised me."
"No problem, I'm always here for you."
Jiang Yulou remembered his promise to help Olivia analyze news policy.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal."
