Chapter 1242


    After tidying up the apartment, Fade gave Joey, his junior, a call to tell her that he had arrived, and


    that he was going to go meet her.


    Fade then walked out of the apartment and went to the campus.


    As one of the top two universities in the country, Capital University had excellent facilities, and the


    campus was huge. As Fade was not familiar with the campus, he got lost and couldn''t find the way


    to where he wanted to go for a long while.


    He gged down a girl by the side of the road and asked, "Excuse me, could you point me towards


    the Archeology Department?"


    Joey majored in archaeology, which was not the most popr major at the university. When Fade


    first heard about the major she was taking, he was surprised to hear that Capital University even


    offered such a major.


    Fade had thought that the girl would point him towards where he needed to go, but to his surprise,


    she red at him. "Men are all the same," she muttered before turning to leave. His question had


    been left unanswered.


    Fade was confused. Wasn''t he just asking for directions? He didn''t think that he was being rude.


    Why did this girl seem to hold a grudge against him?


    Were all the girls from prestigious universities this arrogant?


    Fade thought of Jasmine, the girl he had met on the bus, and this girl whom he had just met, and


    immediately had the impression that all girls from Capital University were arrogant.


    Shaking his head, Fade put his doubt aside. He then asked for directions from a boy. "Excuse me,


    can you tell me where the Archaeology Department is?"


    Fade expected the guy to not help him either.


    To his surprise, the boy smiled excitedly after hearing Fade''s question and responded, "The


    department''s right over there. Just take a turn at the end of this road and you''ll get there."


    "Thank you, I—" Fade expressed his gratitude and was about to leave.


    However, the boy looked very enthusiastic as he walked over to Fade''s side, winked and said, "I''ll


    walk you there, dude."


    "There''s no need, I can go alone." Fade was surprised by his enthusiasm.


    The boy replied, "It''s no trouble at all. I''m heading there too, so let''s go together!"


    "Oh, you''re going to the Archeology Department too!" Fade was a little surprised.


    The boy winked, pointed to the boys who were hurriedly walking along the road, and said to Fade,


    "See, they'' re going to the department of archaeology too."


    "Oh, so many people go to the Department of Archaeology! When did Capital City''s Department of


    Archaeology be such a popr major?" Fade asked in surprise.


    The guy patted Fade on the shoulder and told him with a smile, "Dude, we''re all in the same gang.


    So, you don''t have to cover for yourself anymore. Don''t you know the reason why we''re going to the


    Archeology Department?"


    "Huh? What are you talking about?" Fade asked, puzzled.


    The boy looked at Fade and said, "Dude, there''s no need to hide. We''re all men. We all go to the


    Department of Archeology to see Joey Chen, the campus sweetheart. It''s nothing to be


    embarrassed about."


    "Oh!" This time, Fade was really shocked. He didn''t expect Joey to be the campus sweetheart of


    Capital University, and to be on the receiving end of so much attention from the boys.


    However, when he thought about his junior''s appearance and figure, it made sense that she was the


    campus sweetheart. Thinking of this, Fade felt relieved and could not help sighing. "We haven''t


    seen each other for more than a year. How is Joey now?"


    When the boy heard this, he looked at Fade in surprise and asked. "Dude, do you know Joey?"


    Fade nodded and replied, "Of course I do. I watched her grow up. We often yed together when


    we were young!"


    "Ah, so you''re Joey''s childhood sweetheart?" asked the boy.


    Fade nodded, "I guess you could say so."


    The boy looked at Fade''s serious face. Unable to hold back hisughter, he finally let out augh.


    "Bro," he said, "It seems you are more obsessed about Joey than we are! We only fantasized about


    being friends with Joey but you straight up fantasized about being her childhood sweetheart. I


    admire your imagination!"


    "I wasn''t imagining, what I just told you is true," Fade replied seriously.

    The boy, however, did not believe it and smiled, "Alright bro, there''s no need to exin any further. I


    believe you."


    Upon seeing this, Fade knew that the guy did not believe him, but he did not exin any further. He


    changed the topic and asked about Joey. "Is Joey really popr in Capital University?"


    "Are you serious right now? She''s the campus sweetheart. She has been famous ever since she


    entered the university. All the students and teachers have fallen for her. Over the span of a single


    semester, the trash cans in the Archeology Department are filled to the top with the love letters she


    received."


    "Beside this, Joey is often the talk of the campus. Her reputation in school has been known for a


    long time, and even in themunity college of Capital City."


    "The talk of the campus? Her reputation?" Fade asked. He couldn''t help but think of the naughty


    and mischievous junior on Tianwu Mountain. He then mourned for the guys of the Capital University


    for a few minutes.


    The boy looked at Fade, shook his head, and said, "You don''t even know about her reputation, and


    you dare say that you are her childhood sweetheart? Your bluff has been called, my friend."


    Fade chuckled and didn''t exin any further.


    The boy continued, "When Joey first registered at our school, there was a rich kid in school who


    was interested in her. One evening, he drove a luxury car with flowers in hand and went downstairs


    to her dorm to confess to her. You know what happened next? Joey poured a basin of water on him,


    drenching the rich kid. But the key element of the story is that she had poured hot water on him,


    scalding him in the process. He was wailing in pain on the floor."


    "Once, the campus hunk of Capital University had brought flowers, a guitar, and a collection of


    poems to woo her. On a night of the full moon, he yed a song, and romantically confessed his


    love to Joey. Instead of getting swept off her feet, Joey found a group of middle-aged women and


    began to dance awkwardly to the tune of Little Apple, which obviously ruined the romantic


    atmosphere the campus hunk worked so hard to create."


    "Then, there was a very rich businessman who stopped Joey at the school gate and said that he


    wanted to make Joey his sugar baby. As a response, Joey immediately kicked him, and had him


    rolling on the ground in pain. He was then brought away by an ambnce, and that was that."


    "In short, Joey, our campus sweetheart has had countless adventures."
