Chapter 41: Peppa Pig Makes a Dazzling Appearance
The School of Business and Xiuye Commons were quite far apart, and a leisurely walk would take more than twenty minutes.
The night was not quiet around seven. The figures of university students were everywhere on the paths, and it was not uncommon to see couples walking together. The two of them did not attract much attention.
At most, people would glance at them for a bit longer because they were good-looking.
“I thought Peach Jam only knew about romance matters. I didn’t expect you to have some insight into this debate topic.” Su Huaizhou turned to look at Jiang Miao with a smile as they walked into the Xiuye Commons.
“…” Jiang Miao’s face darkened as he looked away. “In novels, no one pays attention to preachy content. Those dirty readers are mostly interested in the romance scenes.”
Yes, that’s right. It wasn’t that he liked romance scenes, but the reader did, so he had no choice but to include them!
It was all the readers’ fault! What did that have to do with him, Peach Jam?
“What do you mean? Am I also a dirty reader?” Su Huaizhou leaned forward with a serious expression.
“Ahem… No, no,” Jiang Miao quickly denied. “It’s mainly because I like romance scenes. It has nothing to do with the readers.”
Su Huaizhou giggled. “Junior Brother, your stance is too wavering.”“That’s why I’m slacking. Otherwise, I’d be easily convinced if I went on stage to debate.”
“You don’t even blink when you lie.” Su Huaizhou crossed her arms and glanced at him. “It’s all to be lazy.”
“But debates do take a lot of time.” Jiang Miao spread his hands. “And the topic isn’t very appealing.”
“What’s not unappealing about it?”
“Independent women.” Jiang Miao sighed. “Where did the concept of independent women and liberated women come from?”
“It’s the result of women’s liberation movements fighting for women’s rights.”
“Then why haven’t I heard of the concept of independent men or liberated men?” Jiang Miao asked. “Are men naturally independent and free?”
“Junior Brother, do you want to debate with me?” Su Huaizhou smiled at him.
“No, I’m just saying.” Jiang Miao quickly shook his head. “I just feel that some of the current concepts are strange.”
“Such as?”
“Such as independent women. What do you think independent women are?”
“According to the definitions given by our teammates tonight, independent women are women who rely on their own work to support themselves.”
“But here, after comprehensive poverty alleviation, as long as you want to, a normal person who works properly can achieve basic needs, right?”
“I understand what you mean.” Su Huaizhou placed her hands behind her back. They had arrived at the entrance of Building 30. She turned around and smiled at Jiang Miao. “Independence and freedom are relative concepts. Ultimately, it’s just aspirations for a better life.
“You’ll understand after participating in more debates. Life is about being happy.
“So, Peach Jam, hurry back to your dorm and release more~”
Jiang Miao shook his head repeatedly. “More releases is impossible. I already released two chapters during the day. I’ve completed my task today.”
Su Huaizhou held her forehead and sighed. “I really want to lock you up.”
“Senior Sister, that is illegal detention.”
…
After bidding farewell to Senior Sister, Jiang Miao leisurely made his way back to his dorm room.
The sound of running water in the bathroom was accompanied by an out-of-tune, narcissistic song.
“You’re my little, little apple~ No matter how much I love you, it’s never enough~”
Okay, it was obvious who was inside.
In the room, Wang Xin had already entered study mode, and Chen Haoshang had yet to return.
Jiang Miao sat in his chair and let out a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, Xun Liang had finished showering and walked out in his underwear. “Brothers! Check out my new underwear!”
Jiang Miao: “?”
He glanced over and instantly felt awkward. “Why Peppa Pig?”
“Is that the main point?” Xun Liang sat back in his seat with a disdainful expression and snorted. “The main point is that my wife gave it to me!”
Jiang Miao: “… If someone gave me underwear like that, I’d rather not wear it.”
“Brother Jiang, you’ll understand when you have a girlfriend.” Xun Liang clicked his tongue. “You haven’t even had your first love, so you can’t empathize with me.”
“Want me to take a picture of you and post it on the school forum to help you find like-minded people?”
“No way. I’m only showing you because you’re my roommates.” Xun Liang quickly covered his mouth. “I think you’re just jealous. My wife gave me six pairs of these.”
“… All Peppa Pig?”
“No, no, no.” Xun Liang waved his finger. “There’s also George, Peppa’s little brother, and their parents and grandparents.”
Jiang Miao was speechless. “It’s quite complete.”
“This is a hint from my wife!” Xun Liang said solemnly. “Isn’t she hinting that she wants to form a family with me?”
“…” Jiang Miao covered his face and couldn’t be bothered with him. “I think she just wants to prank you.”
“Hmph. How can a mere mortal like you comprehend the true meaning of love?!”
“Yes, you’re amazing. Just be careful not to be seen wearing those.”
“It’s not like I’m going to go out in just my underwear.” Xun Liang shrugged. “Who will know what’s underneath my pants?”
…
The night passed uneventfully.
The next day, Friday.
Jiang Miao went to the Political Work Group as usual and spent the entire morning writing.
At noon, the sports field was preparing for the military training parade and award ceremony.
As a member of the Political Work Group, Jiang Miao didn’t need to participate in the parade. Instead, he followed the students of the photography team to the field to set up the seats, microphones, drinking water, and so on for the school leaders in the stands.
Of course, it was preferable not to have to stand under the blazing sun. After lunch, Jiang Miao came over to help move tables and chairs.
At 1:30 p.m., after the military parade began, he followed the Political Work Group to the adjacent stands and acted as a logistics support member.
Sitting in the stands, Jiang Miao took a break and chatted with Congee Boss on his phone.
[Congee Boss]: (Picture)
[Congee Boss]: Character design for the male lead. This is the first draft.
[Congee Boss]: The school has an activity over the next month, so I’ll be going to Shanghai for an exchange. It’ll probably take a while to complete the drawing.
[Peach Jam]: What the heck? Doesn’t that mean we can’t meet up?
[Congee Boss]: Who disdained me a few days ago?
[Peach Jam]: Ahem… It was just a joke. Boss, I still love you!
[Congee Boss]: Get lost!
While they were chatting, it was Accountant Class 2’s turn in the military parade on the field.
Jiang Miao turned his attention back to the track and watched his classmates march forward in high spirits.
To be honest, in less than two weeks, Jiang Miao could only recognize about ten of his sixty-one classmates.
So his eyes were mainly focused on a few familiar faces.
For example, Xun…
As Jiang Miao thought this, he noticed that Xun Liang’s movements seemed a little off.
Moreover, several boys following behind him were all stifling their laughter, though he wasn’t sure why.
When he looked more closely, he almost burst out laughing.
It seemed that the tension of the military parade had caused Xun Liang to overexert himself while marching.
A tear had appeared in Xun Liang’s pants at some point.
And as he continued to move forward, the tear grew larger and larger.
By the time Accounting Class 2’s formation passed by the main stands, Xun Liang’s butt was almost completely exposed.
Peppa Pig on top frowned and grinned from time to time, making it look deranged.
Seeing this, Jiang Miao silently took out his phone. After thinking for a moment, he patted the shoulder of the student holding a high-definition camera beside him. “Brother, can you do me a favor and take a few extra shots?”
“Yeah, the one with his butt exposed.”
