The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 511 - It Seems to Make a Lot of Sense

Su Qiu had moved to a different dormitory—a single apartment, far from her old one but closer to the academic buildings and labs. Soong Congjun had been pacing back and forth at Su Qiu's old dorm, but what were the chances of running into her there? To his surprise, he spotted her in the cafeteria today. He wasn't about to let this chance slip by. But then he saw Su Qiu dining with an unfamiliar man, and Soong Congjun's face darkened.

Wow, she's got some nerve! How dare she go after my woman? Doesn't she know who I am? Who does this guy think he is? Young Master Ye? I'm not just boasting—I've done my homework to avoid past mistakes. I've checked out all the big shots at this school, and there's definitely no one like him.

But the real issue is…you, you, you… I could maybe get over you trying to steal my woman, but why do you have to be so good-looking? Why? My natural beauty and charm don't even come close to yours. How is that fair? And another thing, chasing one girl is one thing, but what's with the two-timing? Really, what's your secret?

[Sigh] The girl next to him isn't bad either, almost as pretty as Su Qiu. Tsk, tsk, tsk. This guy's got game. I've got to hand it to him. Okay, okay, could you maybe show me… Wait, what the hell am I thinking? I'm supposed to be teaching him a lesson, not admiring him!

Soong Congjun quickly shook the thought from his head, gritted his teeth, and balled his fists. He stormed off toward Su Ming, his anger palpable. His cronies got the message—Young Master Song's girl had been snatched away, and not just one, but two! And to add insult to injury, these two seemed to be getting along famously, laughing and feeding each other. This is just too much!

It's maddening to compare yourself to others. We're a bunch of misfits who can't even find a single match, and this guy's got two? Couldn't he have left one for the rest of us?

Soong Congjun approached Su Ming and slammed his hand down on the table with a thud.

”This is outrageous!”

Su Ming and his two companions jumped in surprise.

Who was this? What was going on?

They looked up to see Soong Congjun.

Su Ming blinked, puzzled.

Zhang Qianqian also blinked, equally bewildered.

They couldn't be blamed.

They genuinely didn't recognize him; they had never met before.

“You actually had a meal with another man behind my back!”

Soong Congjun accused Su Qiu loudly.

Su Ming and Zhang Qianqian exchanged glances, both turning their attention to Su Qiu.

Su Qiu was taken aback.

She glanced at Soong Congjun, looking him over from head to toe.

”Uh…”

Then Su Qiu spoke up, “And you are?”

”I'm Soong Congjun!” he declared, thumping his chest for emphasis.

“Oh, hello, Soong. Should I know you?”

Su Qiu looked utterly confused.

“Ah… probably not.”

Soong Congjun was equally baffled.

The poor guy was just too sincere.

“Have we ever spoken before?”

Su Qiu inquired, her eyes wide with curiosity.

“Ah… no.”

Soong Congjun scratched his head, racking his brain.

But no, they had not.

“Am I your girlfriend?”

Su Qiu pressed on with her questions.

“No, no, definitely not.”

Before Soong Congjun could respond, a passerby shook his head in disagreement.

”Exactly. Can you not recognize your own boyfriend?”

Another bystander chimed in.

“Can you be boyfriend and girlfriend if you don't even know each other?”

The first passerby added.

“Is there such a thing as a couple who's never spoken?”

The second bystander continued.

”If we don't know each other, what does it matter to you if I dine with other guys?”

The first passerby questioned.

“And even if there was something between us, am I not allowed to have a meal with other guys?”

The second passerby retorted.

Soong Congjun listened, dumbfounded.

This… this made too much sense!

Though it was a bit of a commotion.

Are you two performing a comedy routine or what?

What are you up to?

Trying to be a narrator or something?

Soong Congjun was taken aback, and so was everyone else around him.

…

…

…

The cafeteria fell silent in an instant.

Everyone had assumed it was a boyfriend catching a cheater in the act.

But after a bit of conversation, it became clear.

The girl didn't even recognize you, let alone have a conversation with you.

Why should it matter to you who she's dining with?

Even if she soared to the heavens and stood side by side with the sun,

it wouldn't concern you in the slightest, would it?

“Please, go ahead. We're about to eat.”

Su Qiu said this and then returned to her meal.

“Ah, okay.”

Soong Congjun nodded, turned, and began to walk away.

Then he stopped, suddenly confused.

Wait a minute!

That's not right!

I came here today to woo you!

Why am I just walking away?

I… I…

Though he couldn't pinpoint exactly where things had gone awry, he was certain something had.

Never mind, it doesn't matter.

Soong Congjun turned back around.

“Su, you're one of the most beautiful girls in our school.”

“It's beneath you to eat this cafeteria food.”

“Plus, from what I understand, he's not even a student here, is he?”

“Su, why not come with me? You can enjoy the finer things in life.”

“I can even provide you with money to ensure your lifestyle is elevated several notches.”

With that, Soong Congjun pulled out his wallet.

He produced a plethora of bank and various restaurant membership cards, covering the table.

”You can spend whatever you like from this card.”

“There's at least a hundred thousand in this membership card for you to indulge in.”

Soong Congjun was brimming with confidence.

He was sure this gesture would sweep Su Qiu off her feet.

Just as he imagined Su Qiu would scream with delight, leap up, and throw herself into his arms,

he sensed something was off.

Looking around, he noticed many students in the cafeteria were struggling to maintain their composure.

Hmm…

It was a peculiar situation.

They seemed like they wanted to laugh but dared not to.

Yet, trying not to laugh was proving to be quite the challenge.

Su Qiu was being observed, but not a single eyelid was lifted in response.

A dismissive comment was tossed out, “Sorry, I'm not fond of eating out.”

“No, it's not that.”

Soong Congjun found himself somewhat flustered.

He had pulled this move countless times.

How else could he manage to switch girlfriends every week?

Yet, this was a first: outright rejection!

What to do now?

He had plenty of success stories to share, but not a single tale of failure.

“I… um…”

Soong Congjun stuttered, then a spark of inspiration struck.

If I can't get through to Su Qiu, I'll target Su Ming.

Why not start with him?

Drive him off, make him back down!

“What's with the silent act? Playing deaf, are you?”

“Someone's wooing your girl, and you can't even muster a peep. What a coward.”

“If you're not up to the challenge, step aside. Su Qiu, since you're so fond of noodles, if you come with me, I'll hire a variety of chefs to whip up endless noodle dishes for you right at home. How does that sound?”

Soong Congjun declared with a burst of bravado.
