The Supreme Spy - Chapter 58
The unexpected fame didn’t bring much change to Qin Yang’s life. But in class, Qin Yang’s popularity spiked and he became the star of the class. At the same time, he was also a first-class figure across the freshman class.
“Where shall we go this weekend?”
In between classes, He Tianfeng sat next to Le Yuxin and asked with a smile.
Le Yuxin turned her head. “What plans did you guys have? Hiking? Outing? Picnic?”
He Tianfeng was a local and definitely knew where to go. He smiled. “How about we drive out for the trip? We have four from our dorm and four from yours, a business car fits perfectly for eight…”
Le Yuxin blinked. “We’ll have to rent a car then?”
He Tianfeng smiled. “That’s not necessary, I have an eight-seat business car at home. I can drive it out from there.”
Le Yuxin knew that He Tianfeng was a local and was also aware that he was pretty rich, so she wasn’t too surprised by his words. She smiled. “Sounds good, but where should we go?””
He Tianfeng had already planned ahead. “Though there are some places downtown where we could go, every city is very similar to each other and it’s boring. Why don’t we go a little further?”
“We can camp on Xianwu Mountain, or go river rafting on the Tong River. We can also have barbecue and go fishing on the Bifeng Reservoir… We have quite a number of options to choose from. We can even camp out on Xianwu Mountain on the first day, then go to Tong River for river rafting the second day before coming back.”
Le Yuxin’s eyes were immediately illuminated. “We’re going out for 2 days?”
He Tianfeng smiled. “Of course, it’s a rare occasion that we get to go out for a trip. Since we have a car to travel with which makes it so much more convenient, we should stay out a bit longer.”
Le Yuxin agreed, her face showing anticipation. “But I’m worried about the cost. There are eight of us going on a two-day trip, it might be really costly.”
He Tianfeng laughed and pointed at Qin Yang sitting in the back. “Don’t worry about that, we still have the one hundred thousand Yuan that Boss got from the thugs. All we need from your dorm is participation.”
He Tianfeng also raised his eyebrows at Le Yuxin and pointed at Han Qingqing on the side, showing a mysterious smile that read, “You and I know what that means”.
Le Yuxin also smiled with an understanding expression. She turned her head to her roommates, Han Qingqing, Zhao Rui and Chang Huanxiao.”Since a bourgeoisie is inviting us, where would you guys like to go?”
Han Qingqing also smiled. “Anywhere’s fine since I haven’t been to too many places. It’s up to you guys.”
Zhao Rui smiled. “We don’t really care about the destination, but we just feel bad for making you guys pay for everything.”
He Tianfeng smiled. “Han Qingqing is tutoring Boss anyway so it’s worth it. Plus, it’s Boss paying anyway; we’re just tagging behind. Since we’re all classmates, don’t think too much about the details. Just enjoy yourself.”
Han Qingqing smiled as she certainly understood what He Tianfeng meant. He was trying to say that the trip had primarily been proposed as a token of appreciation to her. Whether it be He Tianfeng, Le Yuxin or others, they had only got invited because of Han Qingqing.
Han Qingqing smiled. “It’s normal to help out one another as classmates.”
He Tianfeng finalized his decisions when no one raised any opposition. “Then it’s settled. We will go to Xianwu Mountain for a day, camp on the mountain at night, then head over to Tong River for river rafting the second day. I will build an itinerary later tonight and send it to all of you!”
“Sounds good!”
He Tianfeng returned to his seat, showed an ‘OK’ sign, and said, “It’s settled! I will go home on Friday evening and pick you guys up on Saturday morning. We will tour Xianwu Mountain first, and then camp there overnight. The next day, we will go to Tong River for river rafting… Boss, what do you think about my arrangements?”
Qin Yang smiled. “It’s pretty good.”
Sun Xiaodong’s and Lin Zhu’s faces were also filled with anticipation. It was their first trip out since school had started and it was high-key: a self-driving, two-day trip for four males and four females!
As the saying goes, with the ladies being there, it would make the trip so much better, and one of them was even their class belle, Han Qingqing. Even excluding her, Le Yuxin, Zhao Rui, and Chang Huan were all pretty good looking and beautiful in their own ways. Le Yuxin was lively, Zhao Rui was elegant, and Chang Huan was adorable. How could it be not pleasing to go on a trip with them?
As He Tianfeng was talking about the trip, Qin Yang’s phone rang. He picked up his phone and found out that it was from the headteacher, Xue Wantong.
“Qin Yang, come to my office now!”
Qin Yang was stunned but immediately replied, “Yes, Miss Xue.”
After finishing the call, Qin Yang stood up. “Miss Xue is looking for me, I’ll take my leave.”
Qin Yang arrived at the teachers’ office and found Xue Wantong, who looked very focused as she wrote something on her table.
“Miss Xue, you wanted to see me?”
Xue Wantong lifted her head and smiled. “Not me, Professor Zhang is the one who wanted to meet you.”
“Professor Zhang?”
Qin Yang was surprised. Was this the same Professor Zhang who was the special guest at the Freshman Night?
Xue Wantong showed clear signs of excitement. “Yes, Professor Zhang is a visiting professor of Zhonghai Music University and is of fine attainment in music. Remember the performance that you did before this? He was really impressed with your performance and came to school to meet you…”
Qin Yang didn’t show much pleasure but instead frowned. It’s none of his business if Professor Zhang is impressed with him. There’s not much that they can talk about, right?
Unless he was really thinking about making Qin Yang his disciple like how they were discussing about it in the post?
Xue Wantong, noticing that Qin Yang wasn’t showing any signs of excitement, assumed that Qin Yang didn’t understand the meaning of Zhang Ming’s visit and enthusiastically explained, “I heard that Professor Zhang gave you really good comments after the show. He even said that you could be the next grandmaster as long as you are professionally trained. He may be thinking of taking you as his disciple. It’s a good opportunity, you should hold on to it.”
Qin Yang didn’t want to disappoint her when he noticed Xue Wantong’s enthusiasm and smiled. “Thank you, Miss Xue. Where is Professor Zhang?”
“He’s in the music room – there’s a piano there. I’ll bring you there.”
Qin Yang smiled and stopped her. “It’s okay. I know where it is; I can go there myself.”
Xue Wantong did not insist further but instructed again, “Sure. Qin Yang, it may be a life-changing opportunity for you, and it won’t affect your studies as well. I hope that you’ll appreciate this opportunity!”
Qin Yang knew that Xue Wantong was really concerned about him from the bottom of her heart. He smiled and nodded. “Thank you, Miss Xue. I’ll get going now.”
Xue Wantong agreed, “Go go, don’t make Professor Zhang wait.”
Qin Yang left the teachers’ office and soon arrived at the music room. Before he walked in, he could hear a string of crisp and sweet piano notes coming from the room.
Qin Yang briefly halted his steps. After listening to it for a few more minutes, he pushed open the door of the music room and walked in.
