Zhao Yiqiu is a bit strange.
But once inside the exam room, it beca surprisingly quiet.
At 2:55 PM, the proctor began showing the students the seal, then displayed it to the surveillance cara.
Afterward, answer sheets and math test papers were distributed, with a serious reminder.
"You can fill out the information, but don't start answering yet."
Jiang Nian glanced over the test paper and felt sowhat assured, overall the questions didn't seem too difficult.
As the bell rang, the atmosphere in the exam room instantly tensed up.
Ti ticked away, second by second. For Jiang Nian, each question had its designated ti for solving.
Looking up again, fifteen minutes remained.
Where did the ti go... (choking up)
"Alright, there are three minutes left until the exam ends," the proctor announced, "Once the bell rings..."
Whoa, ti really flies!
Jiang Nian dared not slack off, quickly checked the shaded sections, and filled in the answer for the third sub-question that he couldn't solve before.
Ring ring ring!!
Stop writing, stand up, and leave the classroom.
A cool breeze swept through the hallway, followed by a loud rumble. The rain that had been brewing all day finally poured down at this mont.
Zhao Yiqiu walked beside him and asked sincerely.
"Did you bring an umbrella?"
"No." Jiang Nian hesitated for a mont, thinking she might still feel guilty and want to lend him her umbrella.
"Well, I didn't bring one either." Zhao Yiqiu looked up at the rain and said, "Originally, I just planned to walk in the rain back ho."
Jiang Nian: "???"
Sister, you're saying let's go to the market together without an umbrella?
She posed for a mont, then turned to him with a puzzled look, "Aren't you going to ask what we'll do now?"
"Also walk ho in the rain?"
"No."
"Then what?"
"You'll find out in a mont." Zhao Yiqiu continued watching the rain, hands behind her back, saying no more.
Jiang Nian: "...."
After a while, the proctor ca out. A crowd of people surged in to get their stuff but were reluctant to leave.
After all, no umbrellas.
Just then, Zhao Yiqiu turned and shouted.
"She's here!"
Jiang Nian ignored her, thinking this woman was likely just eccentric. Mysterious, much like He Minjun.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.
"Jiang Nian?"
"Hmm?" He was stunned, turned to look, and saw it was Xu Shuang, "Why are you here?"
With a rumble, the torrential rain beca even denser.
Xu Shuang was wearing a thin dark blue denim jacket, her hem fluttering in the corridor's gusty wind.
"I'm here for her."
Jiang Nian followed Miss Xu's pointing direction and saw the calm Zhao Yiqiu at the end of his gaze.
"You know each other?"
"She's the one I ntioned before, the person I wanted to introduce you to." Xu Shuang walked over casually.
"She went up the mountain with us, you two have already t?"
Jiang Nian shook his head, "Just t."
Zhao Yiqiu walked over, pointing at Xu Shuang.
"No need to walk in the rain now."
Oh wow, did you summon Doraemon? But at this mont, Xu Shuang indeed held a rain umbrella in her hand.
"Who is she?" Jiang Nian looked at Xu Shuang, using his eyes to inquire about Zhao Yiqiu's background, surely she couldn't really be a weirdo.
"A Daoist, my grandfather believes in this," Xu Shuang said, her red lips slightly opening, "She's reliable, you guys can stay in touch."
Can't tell how reliable she is, but she's quite energetic.
"Are you really a Daoist?"
"Yes."
"Your ho... where's your Taoist temple?"
"On the mountain, it collapsed, no money to repair." Zhao Yiqiu said, "The master left, only I am left."
He looked at Xu Shuang, who nodded, then spoke, "My grandfather knew her master and is supporting her."
The old man is really into Daoism, no wonder he's been living in the mountains.
Damn, the car almost couldn't get up there the other day.
Jiang Nian nodded, passively accepting all of this, then asked, "Is your grandfather's health improving?"
Xu Shuang was silent for a mont, then turned to look at the rain.
"No."
....
At the bottom of the old building.
Zhao Yiqiu turned and looked at Jiang Nian seriously.
"Are you really not coming with us?"
Procrastinating a bit, it was already 5:30 PM. The wind and rain stread in on the first floor, making it even more crowded and humid.
Jiang Nian looked over, Zhao Yiqiu's hair was lifted by the wind. In this dim light, she indeed had a sowhat lean and graceful appearance.
"No need, soone's bringing an umbrella."
He found Li Hua and the big guy, due to the father-son soldiers going into battle.
Zhao Yiqiu didn't understand, "One umbrella can fit, if we can't take you, then we can only kowtow."
Byd, so you don't actually want to kowtow? Why do you keep ntioning it!
"The umbrella is too small, you guys go ahead." Jiang Nian still politely refused, repaying a favor wasn't done this way.
Does this thinking process belong to a normal person, and why isn't Xu Shuang saying anything?
Say sothing!
"Okay." Zhao Yiqiu and Xu Shuang walked away under an umbrella, Xu Shuang turned back to glance at Jiang Nian.
Then waved goodbye, treating it as a farewell.
Wow, she's pretty particular.
Jiang Nian waited on the first floor for about fifteen minutes before the two latecors showed up, dry.
But.....
"Where's the umbrella?"
"Didn't bring it." Li Hua only carried an exam bag, both hands empty, "You just called us to co over, didn't you?"
Jiang Nian: "Then why aren't you wet?"
"Oh, we waited for soone with an umbrella to co over." Ma Guojun said, "The folks from the branch school were kind enough to get us.
...
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian nodded, "Then... how do we get back?"
"Good question." Li Hua nodded, raising their heads to look at the sky, "This rain won't stop for a while."
"Let's find soone to send us an umbrella." Ma Guojun suggested.
"Originally, we needed only one umbrella, now we need three." Jiang Nian stated, "I called you guys over here..."
"Forget it, you two live and learn."
The Guobao Three Swordsn waited for a while, but the rain didn't let up; instead, it only poured harder, leaving the three of them sowhat dumbfounded.
"Is there anyone to send us an umbrella?" Ma Guojun asked.
"You're dreaming, everyone from our class left." Jiang Nian said, "But I have a brilliant plan."
