I'm back in 1990

Chapter 74: Entertainment in the 9s

Tonight's event was proposed and organized by Sang Weihong, who hopes that the freshmen will integrate into university life as soon as possible and experience its richness and diversity.

Originally, Huang Xiaochuan and Chen Zhe did not want to go, but Wu Duo, Ding Yi and the others disagreed and dragged Huang Xiaochuan and Chen Zhe to the small auditorium.

The dance venue was rather shabby; the sound system consisted of a single dual-cassette recorder, and the volume was already at its maximum, with some people already dancing in pairs.

Huang Xiaochuan took one look and realized it was ballroom dancing, and to be honest, they were quite skilled at it.

Huang Xiaochuan had no interest in such activities; he preferred to run a few laps on the track to exercise.

Since we're already here, let's sit down and experience the vibrant lives of college students!

He and Chen Zhe found a corner to sit down, and soon more and more people gathered in the small auditorium. Huang Xiaochuan glanced around and guessed that people from other departments must have come as well.

This is similar to the old days of open-air movie screenings. Even though it was shown in one village, people from several nearby villages would come to watch because there were so few other entertainment options available.

As soon as Wu Duo and Ding Yi sat down, two senior female students invited them to dance. Wu Duo didn't know how to dance, so the senior students patiently taught him.

Ding Yi's dance steps were very skillful, and the senior who invited him seemed to have found a treasure. The two coordinated very smoothly and soon became the focus of attention.

Zhang Gaolei was all alone, and no one invited him, which made him very anxious.

Hao Zhidu's eyes were dazzled, but no one invited him, which made him extremely frustrated!

Huang Xiaochuan was surprised to see Jiang Bixing. It's normal to see an acquaintance at school, but what surprised Huang Xiaochuan was that this senior was actually doing business in the small auditorium.

Although he only sells snacks and soft drinks, business seems to be quite good, and he's surrounded by a group of people.

Huang Xiaochuan also went over to patronize his business, but seeing that he was very busy, Huang Xiaochuan stood aside and waited for a while.

After the group of people left, Huang Xiaochuan went up to greet Jiang Bixing.

"Senior, business is booming!"

Jiang Bixing was deeply impressed by Huang Xiaochuan. Huang Xiaochuan was truly the number one businessman in Shanghai, able to use sanitary pads as insoles. Moreover, he would buy dozens of pairs of socks at a time. If Jiang Bixing couldn't remember such a big customer, he wouldn't be able to do business with him.

"Hey, Huang Xiaochuan! Why aren't you dancing?"

"I'm too clumsy to step on the senior students' feet, so I'll just watch the fun. Going up there would only make me look foolish."

"Here, have a bottle of soda!" Jiang Bixing deftly opened a bottle of soda with a bottle opener and handed it to Huang Xiaochuan.

Huang Xiaochuan took it and said thank you!

They've already opened the bottle cap, which means they genuinely wanted to treat us, so there's no need to be coy.

The two chatted for a while during this lull in their schedule.

"Senior, what made you decide to go into business?"

Jiang Bixing was quite honest and explained the reason.

Actually, it all came down to one word: "poverty."

Jiang Bixing was a feudal man. He only had his grandmother left at home. She was old and frail and could not even farm the land. She couldn't just starve to death, could she?

Fortunately, God gave Jiang Bixing a clever mind and a hardworking body. After entering university, he discovered some small business opportunities and used them to accumulate initial capital. After several years of hard work, he also accumulated some wealth.

He also brought his grandmother to Shanghai, and now she lives in a house rented by Jiang Bixing outside the school. He was worried about leaving his grandmother alone in their hometown, in case she had a headache or fever and there was no one by her side.

Hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan felt even more favorably toward Jiang Bixing; he was a friend worth making.

At this moment, Jiang Bixing's business got busy again. Seeing that he was too busy, Huang Xiaochuan stopped bothering him and returned to where he had been sitting.

Chen Zhe hadn't left yet; he sat there, watching everyone dance with unwavering eyes.

Seeing the expectant and longing look on his face, Huang Xiaochuan encouraged him, "Chen Zhe, take the initiative and find a senior female student to teach you to dance."

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhe immediately cowered, waving his hands repeatedly: "I won't, I won't."

"What are you afraid of? Go and try it. I'm telling you, all you need to do is be brave," Huang Xiaochuan continued to encourage Chen Zhe.

Chen Zhe is a good kid, but he's shy and timid. The main responsibility lies with his parents; they may have protected him too much, which has prevented him from adapting to his new life as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, the people in dormitory 222 got along well, and Chen Zhe was no longer as reserved as he had been at the beginning. He got along very well with the others, especially Huang Xiaochuan, followed by Wu Duo and Ding Yi.

Seeing that Chen Zhe absolutely refused to go, Huang Xiaochuan didn't force him.

Huang Xiaochuan himself wasn't interested in dancing and felt restless, so he asked Chen Zhe, "I want to go back and watch TV. Do you want to stay here and watch for a while longer, or do you want to come back with me?"

Currently, each floor of the dormitory building at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics has a TV room, making it convenient for students to watch TV programs in the evening.

Whenever Hong Kong and Taiwan films like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" or "The Return of the Condor Heroes" are shown, the TV room is packed with people, and those who arrive late can't even squeeze in.

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan was about to leave, Chen Zhe also didn't want to stay there. Just as Huang Xiaochuan and Chen Zhe were about to leave, they were blocked by Sang Weihong.

Sang Weihong has been looking for Huang Xiaochuan for quite some time, but hasn't seen him yet.

Just then, Wu Duo walked past her with his arm around a female senior. She stopped him and asked, "Has Huang Xiaochuan arrived?"

"He's here, but I don't know where his cat went."

When Sang Weihong heard that Huang Xiaochuan had arrived, she searched for him everywhere.

After finally finding him in the corner, Sang Weihong stood in front of Huang Xiaochuan with a half-smile.

Seeing someone blocking his way, Huang Xiaochuan subconsciously looked over and saw that it was Sang Weihong.

"Hey senior! What a coincidence, you're here to dance too?"

Sang Weihong was both annoyed and amused by the question. This dance party was organized by me, and you're still pretending to be stupid in front of me.

Why aren't you dancing?

"Me? I can't jump."

"Then I'll teach you?"

Huang Xiaochuan looked at his own feet, then at Sang Weihong's shoes, and chuckled, "Senior, I'm afraid I'll ruin your shoes, so let's skip it!"

"If I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? Come on, I'll teach you!"

As he spoke, he forcibly dragged Huang Xiaochuan away. Chen Zhe was dumbfounded by this scene. Who invites someone to dance like this?

Huang Xiaochuan wasn't lying. No matter how carefully Sang Weihong taught him, Huang Xiaochuan was just like a pig when it came to dancing; he simply couldn't learn.

Sang Weihong looked at her once beautiful black leather shoes with tears in her eyes. Now they were covered in dirt and dust, unrecognizable, after Huang Xiaochuan had stepped on them. She had spent a lot of effort polishing them until they were shiny and shiny, and now they were all ruined.

What's worse is that my feet are in excruciating pain, and I can't even stand up straight.

No wonder, Huang Xiaochuan weighs over 150 pounds, how could Sang Weihong's delicate little feet withstand his smacking kicks?

Huang Xiaochuan, supporting Sang Weihong, kept apologizing: "Senior, look! I told you I'm too stupid to learn, but you insisted on trying. Your shoes are ruined now, aren't they? I'll buy you a new pair!"

Sang Weihong didn't hear these words as an apology at all; instead, they sounded like a mockery. Frustrated, Sang Weihong waved her hand and quickly sent this pig away.

"Alright, alright, I give up. You don't need to pay for the shoes, just get out of here!"

Alright! Huang Xiaochuan immediately made his escape.
