Just as I stepped out of the alley, I bumped into Qianqian and another girl. They were dressed as usual, holding umbrellas.
They were huddled together, not sure what they were looking at.
Jiang Nian approached and realized it was moss.
Grey cent ground, with a ring of moss growing along the red brick wall at ground level—it looked quite pleasant.
"Morning."
Song Xiyun instinctively turned around and seed a bit embarrassed to see him.
"Morning."
Qianqian turned her head, glanced at him, and asked with so confusion.
"You got up this late?"
Jiang Nian had a habit of getting up early for self-competition, and this was one of the few tis the three could et in the morning.
"What ti did you go to bed yesterday?"
Qianqian shrugged it off, "Ten thirty. It's all your fault for being so chatty. I fell asleep as soon as I got back to my room."
Song Xiyun said, "Pretty much the sa for , around ten forty. We talked too long and got tired."
Jiang Nian: "???"
Co on, I can't hypnotize. They talked nonstop last night about train tickets and hotels.
They tired themselves out talking and just went straight to sleep.
"Alright, alright, as long as you got enough rest." He waved his hand, "I'm heading to school first."
"Huh?" Song Xiyun looked puzzled and instinctively called out, "Aren't you coming with us?"
Jiang Nian turned around, "No, I'm used to the school's pace. I'll review in the car for a bit."
"Don't mind him," Qianqian said, "Watching him review on the bus will only make you feel sick."
Song Xiyun: "..."
"That's not fair. None of my classmates mind," he pointed at Qianqian, "You're just being petty."
Qianqian rolled her eyes at Jiang Nian, not bothering to respond.
"Heh."
Jiang Nian didn't linger and headed straight for school. As he reached the main gate, he saw a bustling scene.
There were commuting students with parents and boarding students coming out to buy breakfast.
The small zebra crossing was even manned by two traffic cops. Two police cars were parked at the school gate.
He bought a RunTian drink at the kiosk and carried the exam bag Zhizhi gave him into the school amidst the noise.
Just as he entered the classroom, soone from the next class popped out. "Jiang Nian, do you think I can score over 120 in Chinese?"
What, what kind of nonsense is this?
Jiang Nian's mind was filled with question marks, but after thinking for a mont, he replied.
"Yes."
"Thanks, you too, good luck."
That person left, but it felt like they had opened Pandora's Box, and the scene got chaotic.
"What about , what about , can I score 600?"
Jiang Nian: "..."
"Yes, everyone can."
Obviously, at this critical mont, everyone wanted a bit of good luck, and so even wanted a hug.
Little Bailin, you sneaky devil.
Not really interested in high scores, just trying to take advantage, huh?
Don't ss around before the exam.
He wandered around for a bit and finally distanced himself from the abstract hooligans in class three. Entering the classroom, he saw Chen Yunyun and the others.
"Morning."
Chen Yunyun smiled, clearly having seen the chaos in the hallway, "Touching you brings luck, huh?"
"I don't know, give it a try," Jiang Nian extended his hand, and Chen Yunyun felt embarrassed under everyone's gaze.
Wang Yuhe howled and slapped the back of his hand with a smack.
"Doesn't feel like anything?"
"Damn!!"
"Put your hand out, and you'll know what it feels like."
"No! I'm not stupid!" Wang Yuhe instantly hid her hand behind her back, "You just told to hit it!"
Jiang Nian: "..."
Oh well, not gonna argue with kids.
"Childish." He scoffed, then turned to talk to Chen Yunyun, "What ti did you fall asleep yesterday?"
"Hmm, pretty early." Chen Yunyun recalled, "Chatted a bit in the dorm, then fell asleep."
"And Wang Yuhe?"
She said, "I didn't plan to sleep early, but suddenly thought of childhood mories and fell asleep thinking about them."
"The type that drools while sleeping."
Wang Yuhe was instantly furious, glaring at Jiang Nian, "You drool!!"
The class wasn't full yet; so people hadn't arrived.
As this year science students had to change campuses for exams, a small number opted for parent rides.
However, Jiang Nian thought it was unnecessary.
After all, the Chinese exam starts at nine in the morning. With road traffic control in place, would the school bus make you late?
Clearly not possible.
As for the afternoon, all the exams are finished. No rush at that point, even walking back leisurely wouldn't be late.
"Let's go back to the dorm to rest at noon?" Jiang Nian turned to Chen Yunyun and asked, "I'll get soone to pick us up."
Competing away, resting ho.
Chen Yunyun thought for a mont and nodded in agreent.
"Okay."
Out of curiosity, she asked another question, "Did you book a driver in advance? Is the fare expensive?"
"Free."
"Ah?" Chen Yunyun was bewildered. Although there are high-stakes rides, they're clearly not for dedicated service.
"Qingbao," he said.
.....
"Chi Shi!!"
Li Hua also arrived, taking a look at his group, "Zhang Ningzhi isn't here; her parents are driving her probably?"
"Yeah, Wu Jungu is being driven by his aunt."
"Class president isn't here either?"
Jiang Nian glanced at Li Hua, "Why don't you have your dad drive you, instead of squeezing with us on the bus?"
Li Hua was annoyed and retorted.
"Then why are you squeezing the bus?"
"Enjoy with the people," Jiang Nian said, "I knew our great son would take the bus, prepared to put pressure on you."
The big guy didn't co either, his parents are driving him.
"Chi Shi Chi Shi!! Can't bother talking to you," Li Hua was fed up with this beast and turned to find Huang Fang.
"Fangfang, how did you rest yesterday?"
"Not bad, fell asleep anyway." Huang Fang took so latonin yesterday, maybe due to psychological suggestion.
In the end, she fell asleep in a muddle.
Soon, Old Liu arrived.
He rushed in, found Cai Xiaoqing and Liu Yang, and managed things in an orderly fashion.
