The message wasn't sent to the wrong person.
Jiang Chen had indeed passed the mountaineering club's vetting, and on Saturday morning, he boarded the bus for the outdoor activity organized by the club.
"Hello, I am the president of this mountaineering club, Hu Heng."
At the entrance of a cafeteria where the coach was parked, Jiang Chen met a young man of similar age, dressed like an outdoor adventurer – hiking boots, mountaineering gear, and sporting a cap – who was welcoming the club members by the bus with a professional yet sunny disposition.
"President Hu, hello. I'm Jiang Chen."
Jiang Chen was very polite and set his status straight.
"Haha, just call me Hu Heng. Luo Peng has already told me about you, don't worry, I'll make the arrangements."
Hu Heng gave a meaningful wink and then handed Jiang Chen a bus ticket.
"Get on the bus first."
Jiang Chen nodded, understanding the situation, and glanced at the ticket in his hand.
Tsk.
It's great to have connections.
