Ma Guojun frankly admitted that after graduation, he plans to swim to lose weight, or row a boat, as his granduncle has a lake.
"Wow!"
"Damn! You're really sothing else!"
"Rich guy!"
Suddenly, Jiang Nian turned his head and found three buddies staring at him, "Huh? Why are you looking at ?"
"You haven't said yet."
"Exactly."
Ma Guojun pointed at him, "Co on, be honest, are you planning to get married right after graduation?"
Hearing this, a faint look of doom appeared on Jiang Nian's face.
"I hope so."
"Chi Shi!" Li Hua swore, looking at the approaching senior year building, "With whom?"
"It won't be the class president, right?" Ma Guojun said.
"Zhang Ningzhi," Li Hua said confidently.
"Chen Yunyun?" Liu Yang proposed another guess, "You can't possibly... be going for Dong Que, right?"
Li Hua thought of another possibility, his smile faded, increasingly feeling Jiang Nian was destined for doom.
"You even..."
Jiang Nian kept silent, abruptly changing the subject, "After graduation, I plan to start a small business."
"Damn!! x3!"
......
Evening self-study.
The classroom was quiet, with occasional coughs. Jiang Nian was focused on his howork, pen gliding smoothly.
Suddenly, Old Liu appeared.
"Jiang Nian, co out for a mont."
"Oh."
He stood up, reluctantly casting one last glance at his problem. Damn, he was so close to solving it, only to be interrupted.
Damn it!
Xiao Liu, you better have sothing serious (Husky refers to people).
The two went to the office, Old Liu yawned. One hand turned on the computer before speaking to him.
"There's a leadership inspection the week after next, and the interview plan is set. Any day from Tuesday to Friday."
Jiang Nian: "...."
No way, you call this a plan?
He complained, "Teacher, why talk about things the week after next now? I still have howork to finish."
Old Liu was speechless, "This week's about to end, the whole school needs to prepare next week, wouldn't it be better to give you a heads-up?"
"You're one of the student representatives, you'll have to be interviewed."
Jiang Nian: "Sigh."
"It will indeed take so of your ti." Old Liu was also a bit conflicted, "But it's a good thing."
"I heard the school plans to make a bulletin board after the college entrance exam. Your section will be up for at least a year."
Jiang Nian was unmoved, "Only a year?"
"That's a lot," Old Liu said lightly, "If you get into Qingbei, maybe it'll be three years."
"What do you an?"
"The school's anniversary magazine prints a commorative booklet for every class, and they're building a new teaching building near the parking lot."
"They're likely to put up a batch of outstanding alumni in the corridor; your na surely won't be missed."
Old Liu painted a grand picture, then got back to the main point.
"With so many benefits, stop complaining. I'll tell you what to prepare so your ti isn't wasted."
With things explained like this, Jiang Nian couldn't refuse.
Still, he didn't really mind. A little setback in love, triumphant on the battlefield, who doesn't like to show off?
Records will last longer, letting female juniors admire it for a few years more.
"Got it."
Halfway through the self-study, Jiang Nian returned to the classroom. Hastily finishing his howork and submitting it.
The first period ended, and the psychology weekly was handed out.
The Psychological Commissioner had been replaced after Jiang Nian stepped down. Yang Qiming was appointed by Old Liu.
In Old Liu's words, Yang Qiming seed to have no worries.
The class burst into laughter for a long ti. "No worries" with Old Liu's cousin had practically beco a running joke in Class Three.
Although Yang Qiming indeed had a cheerful deanor all the ti.
"Pass it along."
Li Hua casually grabbed a copy, opened it for a glance. Right on the first page, there was a star student interview.
"Damn, you've got so many titles!"
"What?" Lin Dong leaned over, "Let see, Motivational Star, Provincial Top Student...."
Reading further, Lin Dong couldn't hold it anymore.
"Such a show-off?"
"Who wrote this piece?" Ma Guojun was speechless, "The language style's different, praising you to the skies."
Jiang Nian waved it off, "Hey, keep it low-key."
After saying that, he too curiously took a look. Seeing a heap of adulatory words, he also found it hard to stay unperturbed.
Question: "Besides academics, do you have any hobbies or interests?"
Answer: "Following the esports industry, I guess."
"Where?"
"Internet cafes."
Saying he occasionally surfed the internet, being praised as 'quick-witted'. The rest was even more exaggerated.
"This is too much," Li Hua was unable to maintain his composure, "Whoever wrote this must be your fan, right?"
Jiang Nian: "Uh....."
"What is it?" Zhang Ningzhi ca over, took a closer look, "Seems like there's no signature at the bottom."
It's a collective publication, so naturally, no personal nas.
"Nothing much to see, it's a bit exaggerated," Jiang Nian blushed, snatching the paper from Zhizhi's hand.
"Too embarrassing, I wouldn't have agreed to the interview if I knew."
Zhang Ningzhi pursed her lips, smiling playfully, "I think it's fine, but it seems like...."
"The part that wrote this was probably done by a girl."
Jiang Nian felt awkward hearing it, seriously, how could you even tell?
Amazing.
"It was a mixed interview, both guys and girls." He said, "Maybe the interview and the writing were done by different groups."
"Oh, I see." Zhang Ningzhi didn't think further, "I'm going to the tuck shop, do you want anything to drink?"
"Yes, but I'm out of money." Jiang Nian shalessly relied on her, enjoying small expenditures from his deskmate.
"I'll treat you." The girl didn't mind, and was even happy to let Jiang Nian free-load.
It's just small change, but fun.
.....
Near the end of evening self-study.
Jiang Nian suddenly turned his head, glanced at Li Qingrong. Before she could look up, he turned back.
Li Qingrong looked up, "???"
After school.
She lowered her eyes to pack her things, noticing Jiang Nian hadn't left. After thinking for a while, she couldn't help but ask.
"Just now, when you turned around...."
At this point, the two were at peace. When nails are pulled, an unrepairable gaze is left.
It's always like this between a boy and a girl, unexpectedly withdrawn. eting again felt like restoring a ga from a save point.
Apart from the scars, there was also a sense of novelty.
The days when they were apart, slowly dissecting bit by bit. After the standoff, the fullness brought by yet another embrace.
Jiang Nian smiled, spoke softly.
"The day after tomorrow we'll change seats again, this ti it'll be across most of the classroom, I'm a bit reluctant to leave you."
Li Qingrong paused at his straightforward words.
"Hmm."
Seeing her reaction, Jiang Nian added, "Next week if I don't understand a question, can I ask you?"
He waited a few seconds, but there was no response.
Even with his thick skin, he sighed inwardly. Oh well, I'll see in a few days.
Suddenly, Li Qingrong agreed.
"Okay."
Jiang Nian was slightly stunned, secretly delighted. He thought that the question didn't matter, what mattered was that she agreed.
The classroom had only a few people left, slowly trickling away.
He impulsively turned around, instantly grabbing the class leader's hand. Quickly brushing over it a few tis, then holding it tight.
Li Qingrong struggled a bit, without much force. Jiang Nian didn't let go, betting that the class leader wouldn't shake him off.
The thick skin is there to be used when needed.
Winning feels great, losing just ans waiting a few more days. Anyhow, it won't be worse than now.
"Qingqing, can I co over to your house to play?"
Li Qingrong looked up, giving him a aningful glance.
"..."
"Rascal."
Jiang Nian didn't mind being called a rascal. As long as it ant getting the girl, it was all worth it.
"I just can't stand the thought of having and losing again, it's more painful than never having."
Li Qingrong's hand trembled slightly, yet she remained silent. After a few seconds, she spoke.
"Tomorrow."
"Hmm?"
"Co over at noon tomorrow, my sister won't be ho." Li Qingrong lowered her gaze, said what she had to, and left.
Jiang Nian stood at his desk, dumbfounded for a mont before coming back to his senses.
"Oh?"
He originally just wanted an excuse to touch her hand, to quench his thirst. Unexpectedly, he ended up unlocking a special CG.
