10 Chapter 10 Princess Qi_1

The Chinese restaurant where they had their party was called the Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant, located right under Building No. 6. There was even a door from the dormitory's first-floor lobby leading directly into the restaurant.

The restaurant was decorated in an antiquated style, filled with Chinese vibes.

Even across Moscow, it was known as a renowned Chinese restaurant.

By the time Wang Ye, along with Song Xiaogang and Liu Xiaojie, entered the restaurant, quite a few people had already gathered - all students studying abroad from their batch, many of whom Wang Ye was meeting for the first time.

Just as they were entering, a crisp female voice asked, "Are you Wang Ye?"

Such inquiry might indeed be viewed as slightly impolite, but when you see the person speaking, you usually overlook that.

The girl was of average height, probably just over 1.6 meters tall. But she had an excellent figure with long straight legs and an ideal body proportion.

She was also very pretty, her fair skin slightly glowing, akin to that of porcelain.

Her long, curly hair and large, twinkling eyes filled with long fluttering lashes, were almost heart-stopping.

Upon seeing the inquiring girl, Wang Ye was slightly taken aback as he recognized her, from his "previous life."

Of course, their history was a bit complicated, not relating to romance, but to other matters.

"Hello, my name is Nalan Yaqi, but my friends call me Princess Qi." The girl introduced herself confidently.

Her name was unique, with a rare double-surname.

Liu Xiaojie asked curiously, "Nalan? the surname of Nalan Mingzhu? Also, what does Princess Qi mean?"

"Oh, Nalan Mingzhu is an ancestor. I'm of the Plain Yellow Banner bloodline. As for Princess Qi... well, it just means princess." Nalan Yaqi responded with a smile.

Wow, she even brought up the Plain Yellow Banner lineage, leaving Liu Xiaojie stunned.

After a while, Liu Xiaojie said, "But the Qing Dynasty has long been over!"

After saying that, he chuckled, apparently considering it a funny joke.

However, Nalan Yaqi didn't find it amusing. She gave Liu Xiaojie a cold look and ignored him.

Instead, she turned to Wang Ye, "I heard you got into a fight yesterday as soon as you arrived and beat up that little loafer? Good job! That loafer has always been a nuisance, just a street punk who loves boasting!"

Wang Ye of course knew who she was talking about - it was the short-haired punk from last night.

As for the punk's name, he didn't know...

Wang Ye sighed quietly. News of his deeds did travel fast.

The incident that occurred late last night was already known to many. He didn't know how the news had spread so quickly.

He neither confirmed nor denied it, just said with a smile, "It was just a small disagreement among students, which has been resolved. Now that everyone has arrived, let's go sit over there."

Having said that, Wang Ye gestured to Song Xiaogang and Liu Xiaojie, preparing to go deeper into the restaurant.

Nalan Yaqi looked at Wang Ye in surprise. This boy was so different!

Whether back in China or since arriving here, Nalan Yaqi had never been short of suitors.

Many boys her age would stammer and avoid eye contact with her, only resorting to minor antics to capture her attention.

Such boys, in Nalan Yaqi's eyes, were simply too immature!

But Wang Ye, in her presence, showed no deliberate intention of pleasing or attracting her. It was as if she was just a normal girl in his eyes, without any interest aroused.

When she initiated conversation, he seemed impatient. Was he reluctant to exchange words with her?

If it were any other boy, he would probably be desperate to chat with her continuously!

This made Nalan Yaqi slightly indignant!

She'd never been treated so dismissively...

Alright then, Wang Ye, you've captured the attention of Princess Qi!

"Hey, what's your phone number and QQ number? Let's add each other as friends." she asked, lifting up her chin slightly.

Wang Ye stopped in his tracks, paused for a moment, turned back, and smiled, "I haven't got a mobile phone, so no number. As for QQ... without a computer or the internet, it would be pointless."

Well, he wasn't lying. Perhaps twenty years later, a collegian without a mobile phone might be unimaginable.

But don't forget, this is the year 2001...

At that time, for most people, a mobile phone was considered a luxury!

Not only for Chinese people but also for Russians. Many Russian collegians didn't possess a mobile phone.

Even the common low-end Nokia 3310 model cost over two hundred US dollars, more than two thousand yuan!

However, among these students studying abroad, mobile phones were not rare. After being here for a while, almost everyone bought one.

It was not about being pretentious.

First, it was useful for calling home.

Second, when everyone else had one, not having it was simply inappropriate.

Nalan Yaqi was speechless and slightly irritated, "Well, at least I know which dormitory you live in!"

With that, she turned around and strode away.

Watching her graceful figure retreat, Liu Xiaojie swallowed hard and enviously told Wang Ye, "Brother Ye, Princess Qi seems to be interested in you. Man, handsome guys are always popular!"

His comment was not to flatter Wang Ye, simply stating the fact.

Wang Ye was naturally handsome. When he was in high school, he was regarded as Prince Charming among the schoolgirls, even earning himself a nickname, "Little Lu Yi"!.

Tall with a sturdy build, big eyes, high nose, clear complexion.

Otherwise, he would not have caught the attention of his landlord's wife when he was nearing forty...

Wang Ye patted Liu Xiaojie's shoulder and laughed, "Enough with the flattery, let's get something to eat."...

.............

The highlight of today's party was centered on two people.

One of whom was Nalan Yaqi. One could not overlook that this girl, in addition to her good looks, was also quite outgoing and seemed familiar with almost everyone.

Quite a crowd had gathered around her, vying to talk to her.

The other person that garnered attention was Wang Ye.

This did not have anything to do with his good looks...

It seemed that the incident from last night had spread among the students.

Song Xiaogang was part of the same batch of students as everyone else, but the long-haired loafer was not. So naturally, everyone felt a kinship with Song Xiaogang.

When one of them was bullied, they could all empathize!

Fortunately, Wang Ye had stepped in to help and handled the situation smoothly, which made everyone happy.

Having such a companion made everyone feel proud, so nearly everyone came over to chat with Wang Ye and get to know him.

When you\'re away from home, who wouldn't want to make a friend like that...
