In a certain sense, it really doesn't count. Is this turning from an outsider to one of our own?
"Thanks, I'll drink it (smile)."
On the other side, Xu Shuang hesitated for a mont, glanced at Zhao Yiqiu munching away, and asked.
"Qiuqiu, what does the smile an?"
Zhao Yiqiu looked up, leaned over for a peek. "Just a smile, I use this expression often."
"Really?" Xu Shuang was puzzled.
"Yeah!"
"Oh, alright." Xu Shuang was thinking whether to bring the tea leaves over later, or in the afternoon.
anwhile, Jiang Nian was pondering this issue too.
"Why hasn't there been any follow-up?"
After putting the ingredients in the fridge, he wandered in the spacious dormitory, but the other party was slow to reply.
What if they co in the afternoon?
Xu Shuang: "After my nap, should I bring the tea leaves to your dorm?"
Jiang Nian: "(sweat) Just temporary."
Xu Shuang: "Being this cautious?"
Jiang Nian: "I can't withstand a thorough check from the grade group, it'd be troubleso if they find sothing."
Xu Shuang: "???"
The two discussed for a while, deciding to et up in the dorm after the nap, and incidentally give her a spare key.
After putting down his phone, Jiang Nian went down the stairs and out of the school gate. He got the key made and casually ate a bit outside.
After finishing everything, he then leisurely returned to the classroom.
Fourth floor.
Wang Yuhe glanced at him, uncertainly asking, "Did you skip gym class?"
"Hm?"
Jiang Nian turned around, thinking such a big secret was discovered by her, "How did you know?"
Chen Yunyun ca over, casually said.
"They took attendance."
"Oh, did Liu Yang cover for ?"
"Our group's leader did."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian exhaled a sigh of relief, adding, "I had sothing to do, so I left early."
Chen Yunyun nodded, then asked.
"We're taking graduation photos tomorrow, heard that we can have free activities after. Are you going to take so solo shots?"
"Yeah." Jiang Nian replied without hesitation, "Just not with Wang Yuhe, we'll take them alone."
Chen Yunyun's eyes turned into crescents, smiling with pursed lips.
"Alright."
Wang Yuhe widened her eyes in disbelief, looked at her then at Jiang Nian again, feeling aggrieved.
"Why?"
She wished her ears went deaf just for that second, but only that second, the next would be back to normal.
These two are going to sneak off without her!!
"Nothing, you're too much trouble." Jiang Nian said, "Besides, your face is big, you'll steal the spotlight!"
"Your face is big!!" Wang Yuhe kicked him twice, but still sneaked back into the classroom to get a mirror.
Until she saw the thin little face in the mirror, only then did she have the confidence to co out angrily and kick him again.
"Alright, he's joking." Chen Yunyun comforted, then looked at Jiang Nian, tilting her head.
"Let's just take all the shots anyways?"
Jiang Nian naturally had no objections, "I'll skip the solo ones, seen it for over ten years, it's a bit boring."
"You guys can take them, I'll keep them as a nto."
Chen Yunyun had been smiling, hearing the word nto, her gaze dimd slightly, silently nodded.
"Mm, okay."
The next mont, she heard him say, "After the college entrance exam, when we go out for fun, I'll take them out to interrogate you all."
Chen Yunyun looked up, feeling inexplicably better again.
"You can't deliberately take ugly pictures of us."
Wang Yuhe had a different opinion, frowning, she said, "I want shots in the cool style."
Jiang Nian was bewildered, "Like what?"
"Like, the shots taken from below upwards." She said, "Then I do this, make a peace sign."
What kind of thunder stance?
It's not that you can't take them, just that it really relies on good looks.
Afternoon, 1:50.
Jiang Nian crawled up from his desk, relieved himself, and leisurely strolled downstairs, wandering around to the side of the cafeteria.
At this mont, the end of lunch break bell rang.
As the door opened, Xu Shuang followed the crowd in. She held the tea leaves, looking around.
Their heights were tall, their eyes t.
"Over here."
"Oh."
Xu Shuang moved through the crowd, eting up with soone. Then the tea leaves exchanged hands, ending in Jiang Nian's possession.
The whole process was extrely natural, a smooth exchange showing mutual understanding.
Turning from outsider to insider.
Jiang Nian made small talk, "By the way, did your head teacher say when to take graduation photos?"
Xu Shuang pondered: "Tomorrow, I think."
It's all tomorrow.
That ans class zero and three are actually the first batch. Then unsure if class four will follow afterwards.
He thought of bringing a DSLR, if t, he'd say he's helping classmates with their shots.
Upstairs, Xu Shuang stopped at the dormitory door. Seeming to have no intention of going inside, let Jiang Nian breathe a sigh of relief.
"Wait for a mont." He said.
"Okay."
She watched Jiang Nian open the door to go in, the door was open. The sunlight not strong nor weak, casting a shape of smoke and dust.
The dormitory inside was dim, cooler by a few degrees.
This was also the reason Xu Shuang didn't go inside, class was soon, she preferred basking in the sun in the hallway.
Not long after, Jiang Nian ca out. He pulled a key from his pocket, handing it to Xu Shuang on the hallway.
"This is for you."
"Mm." Xu Shuang took it, her expression calm as if receiving sothing quite ordinary.
But inside, wasn't quite as calm.
After all, this is a key.
Seems like he only made one key, trusting her completely to have it, able to enter anyti.
Xu Shuang had many keys, most weren't as aningful as this brass one here.
Indeed, such things depend on the person.
....
The class bell rang.
Zhao Yiqiu squatted at the vendor's entrance, watching the coming and going crowd, unavoidably yawned.
"Why haven't you co down yet?"
Speak of the devil, footsteps echoed on the stairs.
"Boss?"
"It's ." Jiang Nian raised an eyebrow, greeted Zhao Yiqiu, "Good noon, Taoist."
"Oh." Zhao Yiqiu had no particular reaction.
After a while, seeing Xu Shuang co down too, knowing she avoided suspicion, deliberately staggered her descent.
"Qiuqiu."
"Hm?"
"Which key on my key chain do you think looks best?"
.....
The first class in the afternoon was biology.
Jiang Nian lay bored, propping his head up, listened to Qingbao explaining the exam papers, while using [Prophet] to explore the entries.
Almost instantly, seven or eight entries popped up.
He was stunned, thinking this was really a system fine selection. His relationship with Qingbao was indeed quite close.
Teacher/Ga addict/contrast/Jiang Nian friendly group/Zhen Nan haters/dedicated to work/hobody/details please pay.
Geez!
So many Zhen Nan haters, what do you have against us! Angry, trembling with cold, outsiders co to our Zhen Nan to deliver dowries!
In class, idle and bored, he stared at Qingbao, attracting dissatisfaction from Qing's admirers.
"What are you doing?" Li Hua nudged him, discontented saying, "Don't stare at my Qingbao."
Jiang Nian: "???"
"Can't tell, Hua." He was sowhat difficult to handle, "Your taste is quite large, love one after another."
"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua pointed at him, "Right, if you notice Zeng You has been writing lately."
"You can report to , Ma Guojun has outsourced the supervision work to , if caught I get ten bucks."
"Hmm... I can split five bucks with you."
Jiang Nian: "...."
Outsourcing face to face huh?
Speaking of conscience, directly splits half. Your conscience has been eaten by a dog, you're this greedy?
Jiang Nian turned, poked Zhang Ningzhi.
"If you notice Zeng You.... I can split two bucks fifty with you."
Zhang Ningzhi glared at him, fuming.
"I heard everything!"
"You can outsource to soone else." Jiang Nian didn't mind, "Anyway it's just a convenient thing, even a buck is earning."
This is Zhen Nan.
Zhang Ningzhi didn't bother with him, yet still felt aggrieved. Holding a pen, she drew a letter pig on his hand.
"Don't erase it today."
Jiang Nian was sowhat speechless, thinking Zhizhi is so childish, so he asked, "Can I lick it off?"
"No way!"
In the second class, Zhang Ningzhi glanced over. Finding the pig on Jiang Nian's hand was already covered with bubble gum stickers.
"You!!!"
