Boss, You're not Being Honest

On Saturday morning, Qin Yang was still in bed when his phone rang.

He took a look at his phone and was surprised when he saw the name on the screen.

　　'Li Siqi.'

Qin Yang sat up and answered the call, "Li Siqi?"

Li Siqi's crisp and sweet voice rang on the phone: "From the sound of your voice, were you still sleeping?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "Isn't it normal to sleep in on the weekend?"

"Does sleeping in mean that you have nothing planned for today?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "I guess you can say that. You need something from me?"

"No, but I wanted to come over and see if I could get a free meal. Although that'll depend on you..."

Qin Yang laughed. "Sure, it is my pleasure to have you come over. What time will you be here?"

"I have to get something done first, then drop by your school at about half-past eleven. I'll call you when I arrive."

"Okay, see you later!"

When Qin Yang hung up the phone, he saw three pairs of eyes staring at him, their eyes full of fiery light… No, it might be more appropriate to describe them as lascivious.

"A beauty will be here today!"

He Tianfeng laughed and said, "Boss, you're not being honest! You better tell us the truth!"

Qin Yang explained with a smile, "She's a friend that I met on the train to Zhonghai. She's a student from Zhonghai Theater Academy. She had some plans around here today and decided to pay a visit."

Sun Xiaodong smiled and said, "She must be really beautiful since you are referring to her as a beauty!"

Qin Yang calmly nodded. "Yeah, she's really beautiful."

He Tianfeng's eyes suddenly lit up. "Is she better than Han Qingqing?"

Qin Yang thought about it. Li Siqi and Han Qingqing both were very beautiful. Li Siqi was relatively more fashionable and had the temperament of a city girl while Han Qingqing was pure and innocent. It was hard to say who was more beautiful.

"They are of very different styles; they're both pretty in their own ways."

He Tianfeng smiled. "No wonder you didn't care about Han Qingqing before this. You already have such a beautiful person in your heart."

Qin Yang laughed and scolded, "What the hell are you talking about?! We just met by chance!"

Linzhu leaned out of the bed and added with a smile, "It's called a destined meeting!"

There was a sudden laugh in the bedroom, Qin Yang rolled over and climbed up. "I don't wanna go on about this."

Qin Yang got up, read the news on his phone for a while, then his phone rang.

"I'm at the gate already. Doctor Qin, come get me!"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "Ok, just walk inside and you'll see a basketball court. Let's meet there. I'll be out in ten minutes."

 "Ok!"

Qin Yang stood up and was about to go out when He Tianfeng suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Hey, Monday night is the freshman night where Third bro will be having his Taekwondo show. We have to run through it."

Qin Yang turned around. "Okay, what time?"

"Didn't he join the Taekwondo club? He borrowed the props and the board from the Taekwondo club. How about three in the afternoon, will you be back by then?"

Qin Yang thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure... I'll be there on time if I have no other plans."

He Tianfeng smiled and said, "If your beautiful friend doesn't mind, and you guys have no other place to go, you can bring her along."

"Sure, I'll talk to her about it."

When Qin Yang arrived at the basketball court, Li Siqi was already there and standing by the side of the road while watching the students play basketball.

Li Siqi was wearing a pink short-sleeved T-shirt, denim shorts, and pink sneakers—an instant vision of a girl clad in pink, but her big, white and tight legs were still very eye-catching.

"Hello..."

Qin Yang walked toward Li Siqi and greeted her with a smile, "What caught your attention?"

Li Siqi turned her head, her face filled with a happy smile. "I actually like playing sports as well. 'Life lies in motion', that's my motto."

Qin Yang laughed. "Are you a basketball expert?"

Li Siqi generously replied, "I know a little of everything. I just like sports, not athletics."

"The fun in sports is about participation." Qin Yang replied and immediately asked, "How come you're here today?"

Li Siqi slightly raised her chin. "I came here to see a friend who lives near Zhonghai University, so I thought of you and decided to pay a visit. How's college so far?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "Not bad. Much more interesting than I thought."

Li Siqi chuckled, "Zhonghai University is very special as it is different from other universities. But with your skill, I'm pretty sure that you'll have a good time here."

"Thank you for having such high opinions of me!"

Qin Yang smiled and raised his wrist to look at the time. He said with a smile, "It's almost lunchtime. We have two choices: to have lunch at the canteen, or to have special braised chicken at the nearby commercial street..."

Li Siqi chuckled, "Let's just eat in the canteen. If we spend too much money on lunch today, you might have to live on instant noodles for the rest of the month. I'd feel really guilty about it, and I might even be blacklisted by Doctor Qin later on..."

Qin Yang couldn't help but laugh. "You're just making things up. You can eat whatever you want, I'm a local tyrant anyway."

Li Siqi smiled. "Wow, that's nice, but let's eat in the canteen. I wanna try the food at your campus and see if it's any different from ours."

"Ok."

Qin Yang agreed with a smile. He turned around and walked toward the canteen with Li Siqi. Li Siqi walked next to him and said with a smile, "I was told that Zhonghai University is very special, but I don't see how."

Qin Yang replied with a smile, "It is, but it mostly has to do with the relationships between people. It's not something superficial that you can see on the surface."

Li Siqi tilted her head sideways to think about it, and then said with a smile, "You're right. By the way, how are you getting along with your roommates?"

"Very good, we're pretty united. Last night, we fought against a group of gangsters together..."

Li Siqi opened her eyes wide and said in surprise, "A fight?"

Qin Yang nodded. "Yeah, we ran into a bit of trouble during dinner yesterday. A group of them came looking for us for trouble, so we fought against them together. In the end, we got them to compensate us a hundred thousand yuan for emotional damages..."

Li Siqi opened her beautiful mouth in surprise. "A hundred thousand yuan? Compensation for emotional damages?"

Qin Yang smiled. "Yeah, so you don't have to save money for me."

Li Siqi looked at Qin Yang in shock and suddenly smiled. "Well, this is definitely not normal for others, but I guess it's pretty normal when it happens to you..."

Qin Yang curiously asked, "Why do you say that?"

Li Siqi's eyes curved like the moon as she smiled at Qin Yang. "You like to stay hidden and lie low. I'm not even surprised that these things would happen to you..."
