I'm A Baller - Chapter 158
Chapter 158: The Person In Charge
A female leopard whizzed past.
It created a hurricane and shattered the night sky.
It was 7:30 pm. The scorching heat of the day had gradually subsided. The sky was slightly dark, but the light from the setting sun was still there.
A girl who was at least 185 centimeters tall, wearing professional sports shorts and a tank top, rushed from the far end of the track at high speed. In the blink of an eye, she rushed past Wang Yan and sped away.
With Wang Yan’s eyesight, he could clearly see the details.
The girl had a pair of terrifyingly long legs, which were much longer than Lin Weiwei’s, and they were very well-proportioned and strong.
The smooth muscles of her thighs were extremely tense and contracted with every step she took.
When she ran, she was like a compressed spring, suddenly releasing a huge amount of kinetic energy, pushing her to sprint like a cheetah.
In just a breath’s time, she had rushed past the edge of the straight track, slowed down, stretched her body, and slowly walked back.
As she walked, her back was facing the sunset, and she looked as if she was stepping on the setting sun light, taking one step at a time.
Her slender, smooth, and perfect body contained an extremely wild strength. She walked slowly, but she was so elegant, leisurely, and graceful.
Her ponytail danced in the sun light, dazzling Wang Yan’s eyes.
Under the sunset light and the afterglow, Wang Yan couldn’t see the girl’s face clearly. However, the impact of strength and beauty was forever engraved in his mind.
“She’s so f*cking dashing…”
The five boys were all stunned. The beauty of strength, speed, and physical harmony was enjoyed regardless of national boundaries and gender.
If you were lucky enough to see it with your own eyes, you would only think of its beauty.
It was like the sensation you got when you watched Guo Jingjing’s diving, Lin Dan’s smash, and Yu Sheng’s figure skating.
At that moment, Wang Yan finally understood the beauty of sports, and his whole body itched to move.
Damn, I really want to go over and have a dash myself.
Looking at the Hermes slippers on his feet, Young Master Wang felt very regretful. Then, after a deep glance at the back of the figure, he turned to leave.
On the way back, Squirrel, Like Jade, and the others were discussing. Their excitement did not fade for a long time.
“Aiyo, is that girl from the Physical Education Department? She’s so handsome!”
Squirrel was so excited that he even spoke in his dialect.
“I like her so much… Oh my god, I fell in love at first sight with a girl who is 15 centimeters taller than me? !”
Emmm, the 170-cm-tall Like Jade, looked fascinated.
The expressionless Brother-in-law finally lost his composure and began to stutter, “This s-senior sister is very, very beautiful! I, I saw half of her face!”
Dutch Potato was probably the only one who did not look lovesick, mumbling, “She is beautiful, but she is so fierce… who can withstand it!”
Squirrel really wanted to pat his chest and say that he could do it, but when he touched his ribs, he suddenly hesitated.
Ruyu squinted his eyes and knew what Squirrel was thinking about. He mocked him mercilessly, “Brother Squirrel, please think again, okay? With that skinny body of yours… If you’re lucky, there’ll be a ‘crack’, but if you’re unlucky, there’ll be many ‘cracks’!”
“Hahaha!”
The others laughed so hard that they almost couldn’t stand still, especially Brother-in-law who laughed so hard that he almost shed tears.
Squirrel was furious. “You bastard! Get lost! As if you can do it!”
Like Jade was instantly depressed, his eyes filled with tears.
“What the f*ck… Of course I can’t do it! For a Tyrannosaurus like this, I think we can only let Brother Wang handle it…”
I can’t do it!
I won’t do it!
Don’t trick me!
When Wang Yan thought of the girl’s height of around 185 and the strength of her feet that seemed to be able to break the ground, he felt a little weak.
It was not a matter of whether he could flirt with her, but whether he could tame her.
Of course, Wang Yan really liked the girl’s figure, which was definitely a kind of super unusual beauty.
Unfortunately… I have a girlfriend.
He found a wonderful excuse for himself and immediately felt better.
Back in the dormitory, the four silly boys continued to talk nonsense. Wang Yan picked up Paul Samuelson’s “Economics” and started doing today’s homework.
Not long after, the guys from the next door came to visit. In less than ten minutes, more than ten people squeezed in. More than half of the boys majoring in economics had come to say hello.
It was actually a very annoying thing to be interrupted while concentrating on studying.
However, the students were unintentional and he would be in their company for a long time, so he could not get angry over such a small matter.
Therefore, Wang Yan had no choice but to close the book and get to know everyone first.
The School of Economics and Management wasn’t considered a large department in the Normal University, but the male-female ratio was relatively balanced. For example, Wang Yan’s economics class 1 had a total of twelve boys and only thirty-eight girls.
It was said that there were only two boys and more than forty girls in the accounting class next door.
How happy were those two boys?
When they chatted, everyone was envious of those two lucky guys.
Wang Yan felt that something was wrong. Thinking about what the senior student Zhang Cheng said, he felt that it was not the case.
However, the topic soon changed. Everyone began to express their envy towards the Room 303 due to the air-conditioner.
“Brother Wang, you’re really awesome!”
One of the guys gave a thumbs up, followed by a chorus of agreement.
Like Jade looked prouder than Wang Yan. He could not help but laugh and act pretentiously. “Bros, why don’t you put in money and install one, too? The air-conditioner is not expensive now!”
“That’s right. If you buy a good dual frequency AC, each person will only pay 800 yuan at most, right?” For the first time, Squirrel agreed with Like Jade.
However, a few of the boys looked embarrassed.
Some of them started to complain.
“Bro, you’re just lucy to have Brother Wang as a roommate. He doesn’t care about that bit of money. How can it be so easy to split the cost?”
“That’s right. If there’s one person in a dormitory who isn’t willing to pay, who will pay for that portion?”
“No one would f*cking make up for it! If you don’t pay and I pay double. Then you’ll enjoy the coolness without paying a penny. Who’d be so generous?”
“That’s right! Besides, the electricity bill can reach several hundred a month. How are we going to collect it?”
“We talked about it in the afternoon. We’ve not reached an agreement yet!”
Squirrel found it hard to believe. “I see that many parents have million-yuan luxury cars. Isn’t there anyone who is willing to contribute the money?”
A youth dressed fashionably smiled bitterly. Then, he stole a glance at Wang Yan.
“Squirrel, I would like pay, but the school didn’t let me… Right now, only your dormitory has their approval.”
It was the first time that the four boys in the dormitory knew about this, and they were stunned when they heard it.
The boys from the other rooms were even more surprised. “Oh? So you guys didn’t know about it?”
“The school had no intention to budge. It was Brother Wang who changed their mind.”
“Otherwise, Longtao’s mom wouldn’t have caused such a scene, right? She did it because the school wouldn’t let us install ACs.”
“And speaking of which, we have to thank Brother Wang. If he hadn’t gone to talk to the school staff, we might not have their permission even next summer.”
“Right! No matter what, at least they let us do it now. If everything goes smoothly, they might start accepting applications next week. That’s why we were talking about splitting costs!”
“I came here today to thank Brother Wang for what he did. I just want to say that if there’s anything you need, just say so. I’ll do my best!”
“Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Brother Wang!”
“Don’t stand on ceremony if you need something!”
“Let’s just say Brother Wang is awesome! President Wang is magnanimous! That’s all I want to say!”
“Hahaha!”
With more than ten people talking in the dormitory, it was extremely noisy.
Moreover, Wang Yan was amused and wondered what Li Zewen said to them in the afternoon.
He had only spent some money to get the school to do his bidding, but Brother Li made it sound as if he had done it for the sake of all the students?
It was truly magical.
Of course, what Li Zewen did was a good thing for Wang Yan. It gave Wang Yan a considerable amount of prestige among the boys.
Li was very good at doing people favors.
For Young Master Wang, there might not be any direct benefits from it, but it would definitely make his university life easier.
Look at Like Jade, Squirrel, Dutch Potato, and Brother-in-law’s shiny eyes. How touched they looked!
“Brother Wang! You are my beacon light!” Like Jade shouted.
Startled, the others looked at him with admiration.
Bro, you won!
You are the No.1 lackey!
…
They didn’t leave until almost 10 o’clock. Wang Yan now knew almost all the boys in economics department. With a little effort, he remembered everyone’s name.
He didn’t feel any threat from them.
At most, these guys came from families with mid-level government officials or small fortunes. Their parents drove million-yuan cars and had tens of millions of assets. Their influence was limited to a small range, and that was all.
If nothing unexpected happened, the person in charge would definitely be Wang Yan.
It was not that Wang Yan wanted to be the Big Brother, but with his current abilities and status, once he say something, no one would ignore him.
To be honest, he hadn’t expected things would come so far.
However, Wang Yan felt very satisfied.
In an university, unless one spent all his time in gaming, one had to have his own small circle in order to live a good college life.
Of course, how to maintain one’s status while keeping a proper distance was a test of one’s ability.
Wang Yan didn’t dwell on it for the time being. He picked up the Montblanc pen given to him by the Little Princess and went to bed to read.
Playing was one thing, but it couldn’t affect his studies. He knew his priorities.
…
He went to bed at 12:30 am and got up at 6:30 am. When Wang Yan went into the bathroom to wash up, the bedroom was still silent.
Brushing his teeth, Wang Yan began to think about the things that he should do today.
First, he had to change the window curtains.
The curtains that the school provided were a light green piece of cloth. Light penetrated it easily, especially the large hernia lights from the stadium — they were especially piercing.
Next, he would get a new bedding.
The bedding from the school was not comfortable, and it was said students must fold their quilts like square blocks during the military training. Wang Yan planned to sleep in his own bedding. He would fold the school’s quilt properly and put it on the bed every morning.
Then, he would buy a modem and install WiFi, get a library card, a prepaid meal card, buy a pair of running shoes, a pair of basketball shoes, find a swimming pool nearby, order a washing machine, a small refrigerator…
Finally, he would rent an apartment.
Wang Yan was not sure when he would be able to move out. The earliest would be mid-to-late September, after the military training.
And even if he moved out, he would have to come back often.
It was said that in the last semester, many universities in Star City got lots of issues with students living off campus. After the fire that happened in a university in the Pearl River Delta, this year’s freshmen would be under stricter supervision.
Although he couldn’t move out for the time being, he could definitely rent an apartment beforehand.
Wang Yan could completely afford to sacrifice a month’s rent. It was better to get the apartment ready while he had time.
So he got lots of things to do.
However, Wang Yan wasn’t in a hurry. He picked up his book and stuffed it into his backpack, then went to the lotus pond.
He found a shady place and quietly read until nine o’clock. After he finished a big chapter, he went to the canteen to get a meal card and bought some food.
He picked the things that looked delicious and packed five different portions before bringing them back to the dormitory.
When he pushed the door open and entered, everyone had already gotten up.
When they saw the breakfast that Wang Yan was carrying, all of them were shocked.
“F*ck, Big Brother, you brought us breakfast? !”
Like Jade said everyone’s thoughts.
Wang Yan did not think it was a big deal. It was something as easy as lifting a finger and it would be pretentious to deliberately not do it.
“Wash your face and eat. Take whatever you like. Our dormitory needs a big table so we can eat together… Yisong, if you have time today, go buy one.”
Wang Yan’s instructions were issued naturally, but Squirrel’s response was even more natural.
“No problem! Later, you guys make a list. If there’s anything you need , I’ll buy them back in one go!”
Suddenly being entrusted with an important task by the big brother, the proud young man was very enthusiastic. He even promised to buy other things for his roommates.
With a leader from whom the others were willing to take orders, the dormitory would see unity and peace.
Wang Yan had no intention to scheme against anyone in the dormitory. He didn’t want to show off or dominate the others.
It wouldn’t be school life, right?
Living like that would be disgusting.
While eating, Wang Yan continued to assign tasks.
“Shouzhong, after eating, you go and ask how to get the best cable, and then buy a modem for wi-fi. I don’t know much about the specifics, so it’s up to you. I’ll pay for it.”
“Don’t worry about that!”
Like Jade was overjoyed. He patted his own chest and said, “I’m familiar with things related to computers! I’ll get it done.”
Dutch Potato was the next.
“Ziyi, go to the small store at the back and buy some miscellaneous things, such as basins, shoe brush etc. Then stay in the dormitory and wait for the delivery of the washing machine and the small refrigerator. I’ll place the orders on jd.com right away.”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The Dutch Potato nodded vigorously.
In the end, there was only Song Chen left. He had stopped eating. He raised his head and looked at Wang Yan.
President Wang’s head hurt a little.
It seems like I have no use for you, huh?
With your personality, you’re really not suitable to go out and interact with people…
After thinking for a while, he casually instructed, “Go look for your sister!”
(⊙⊙) !
Huh? !
Everyone was a little dumbfounded.
Even the most flirtatious Like Jade was stunned.
Brother Wang is awesome!
It seemed he would make a move when he liked a girl, instead of testing waters first!
Wang Yan was eating his soup and had no idea what the scoundrels were thinking. After swallowing the vegetables and soup, he slowly explained.
“Before you go, measure the length and width of the window curtains, as well as the length and width of our beds. Ask her if she’s familiar with the curtain and bedding market. If she is, ask her to name a place for you to buy these things. You can take a taxi.
“The curtains are for everyone, and the quilt is for me. I’ll give you the money for it.”
Phew…
Song Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it wasn’t a difficult task.
“Alright, no problem!”
Song Chen happily accepted the task.
Like Jade and Squirrel suddenly stopped fighting and exchanged glances with each other.
Bro, what’s going on?
Bro, something’s wrong!
