Jiang Nian was momentarily stunned, "Evening class?"

Li Qingrong: "..."

"After evening class."

"Oh, okay." He made an OK gesture, then asked, "Where are you going to eat?"

"You're coming too?" Li Qingrong glanced at him, "Cai Xiaoqing and the others are planning to eat cold noodles together."

"Cold noodles, huh, never mind then." Jiang Nian declined, "I'm not used to it, I'll just eat at the cafeteria."

Li Qingrong: "Okay."

"So I'll just....."

"Wait." Li Qingrong stopped him, then gestured for him to come over, "Come a little closer."

"What?" He leaned in.

With only a desk between them, Li Qingrong reached out. She stretched over his shoulder and straightened his collar.

"Alright now."

Jiang Nian was slightly stunned but still said thank you. Not really wanting to leave just like that, he glanced at her again.

"You didn't do your buttons right....."

Li Qingrong gave him a sidelong look, "I'm wearing a short-sleeve."

"Aren't you cold?" he asked.

"Not cold."

"Okay then." Jiang Nian gave up, the class monitor didn't give him any leeway, "It looks like there's something dirty on your short sleeve."

Li Qingrong was speechless, thinking to herself that she underestimated how thick-skinned this guy was, she slapped his hand away and said helplessly.

"I'm going to eat."

"Oh." Jiang Nian didn't mind, he wasn't really a weirdo, he just wanted to tease Qingqing a bit.

But he truly didn't expect Qingqing to invite him for a walk.

He left the classroom and went downstairs.

He walked along the campus road into the North District. Looking downhill, he saw rows of dormitories with lights on.

Thinking to himself that he'd first notify Chen Yunyun, he sent a message.

"I'm here."

A moment later, a message came back from her.

"Where?"

Feeling awkward.

Jiang Nian felt a bit embarrassed, not expecting them to be waiting downstairs, he thought a moment, then typed to explain.

"It's all Li Hua's fault, he dragged me to play spinning tops after class. I'm almost there, uh... one minute."

Chen Yunyun: "Alright."

He could even imagine, when Chen Yunyun replied, she was just leisurely standing under a tree.

She wouldn't get angry, nor complain.

Jiang Nian thought to himself, as long as he didn't cross a line with Chen Yunyun, she wouldn't easily get angry.

Even if she felt something, she would keep it in.

After everything's over, she might address it. And she wouldn't hide it; she'd mostly be straightforward about it.

Good..... also not good.

As he was thinking, he arrived downstairs at Building 2. Chen Yunyun was playing on her phone, Wang Yuhe was kicking a tree nearby.

Jiang Nian: "???"

"What are you doing?"

"Nothing." Wang Yuhe stopped kicking, "You took forever, delaying everything."

"Uh..." Jiang Nian was out of words, it was indeed his fault, "Alright, alright, my fault."

"Your what?"

"Nothing, let's go." Jiang Nian was too lazy to argue with an elementary student, and casually tugged Chen Yunyun's arm.

"Okay."

Jiang Nian just tugged her a bit, then let go. Most of the time on the way, he was bantering with Wang Yuhe.

Partly because the elementary student's antics were silly, partly because Jiang Nian liked to provoke.

But during the play, Wang Yuhe accidentally kicked Jiang Nian. The latter immediately stopped laughing and pretended to be angry.

Wang Yuhe felt guilty, a bit panicked.

"I didn't mean to."

"Oh."

"You're really petty." The elementary student thought for a moment, pulled out a candy from her pocket, "Want some candy?"

"No."

"You want to eat." Wang Yuhe unwrapped the milk candy and directly slipped it into Jiang Nian's mouth corner.

She was smug, thinking how could he still be angry after eating a candy?

Jiang Nian took a bite, it was sweet. He didn't like sweets, but spitting it out felt wasteful.

"Where's the candy from?"

"Bought it."

"You're quite well-off; did you buy duck feet?"

"No way!!"

You should always take women's words the opposite way, Jiang Nian thought it'd been a while since he had any, a good chance to try something new.

As for how to get it, that didn't matter.

The proper use of a loophole.

....

As night fell, the evening class bell rang.

Sun Zhicheng sighed, tiredly pulled out a book. He wasn't exactly nervous, nor really anxious.

He even felt a bit relaxed, unable to muster energy.

After all, the outcome was already decided.

If he could finish a test sheet and have an evening class chat in one night, it would count as efficient.

"So annoying." He remarked, but didn't see Lin Dong respond, he turned his head and saw Lin Dong writing something on a paper.

"???"

"Brother Dong, what are you doing?" Sun Zhicheng leaned over for a look but didn't quite understand.

"Nothing, just some thoughts." Lin Dong said, "Planning to shoot some short videos, I'm heading out."

Sun Zhicheng was confused, subconsciously asking.

"It's study time, where to?"

"Going to the office to find Old Liu." Lin Dong tossed his pen and ran, almost out of the classroom in the blink of an eye.

Sun Zhicheng: "???"

On the other side, Li Hua was also idle. During study sessions, he mostly memorized words and then zoned out.

Jiang Nian glanced at him and casually said.

"Hua, wipe your drool."

"What!" Li Hua was startled, instinctively wiping his mouth, only to find it was a false alarm, and he was instantly annoyed.

"Chi Shi!"

"I just zoned out, memorizing words is too tiring. I need a break."

Zeng You chuckled, put down his phone and turned, "Sure, sure, if you need rest, it means you have a weak kidney?"

"Chi....." Li Hua started but waved it off halfway, "Can't be bothered with you, I need to stay calm."

Jiang Nian was also pretty calm, when he got tired of problems, he'd rest his hand on Zhizhi's leg and give it a rub.

Inner peace calms the heart naturally.

Sitting in the corner of the classroom, it was 100% safe. Except for occasionally getting smacked, it was almost risk-free.

"You!!"

Zhang Ningzhi turned her head, pinched him once, and then lowered her voice, "Don't move, I need to do problems."

"Oh, okay." He withdrew his hand.
