Chapter 144

~7 min read 1,325 words

Xu Qingzhou was lamenting his grades, while Song Yao was chatting with Ding Jiahui. Unlike the two of them staying at school, Guo Ziyang and Ding Jiahui went on holiday and returned to Rongcheng on the 13th.

Ding Jiahui was very angry: "Yaoyao, Guo Ziyang is too much of a coward; after confessing, he hides from me every day... A boy like this doesn't even have any responsibility. Do you think I should just delete him?"

Across the screen, Song Yao could feel her best friend's resentment.

Is this what a girl about to fall in love is like? She had never seen Jiahui like this before.

She herself would definitely not be so conflicted.

She pursed her lips, and just as she typed the word "Don't," Ding Jiahui's message popped up again: "Forget it, forget it, keep him; at least we know each other."

Rongcheng.

The two left the library together.

Read! {

Xu Qingzhou walked side by side with Song Yao, his hands in his pockets.

Ten minutes passed, a fair arm reached over, Song Yao tapped the table and said in a low voice: "Let's go eat."

Song Yao also came back to her senses at this time, glared at him warningly, and continued to look at her messages.

"These two," Xu Qingzhou shook his head with a smile and said: "Let's wait until we go back to talk about it; before that, it's best if they can clarify things themselves."

Xu Qingzhou glanced at the time and realized it was already 11:30 AM.

!.

"."

Song Yao stopped and tilted her head to look at him.

"Jiahui is also angry, saying she wants to delete Guo Ziyang."

In the dead of winter, even with the bright sun, the air was chilly. There were not as many people in school as during the semester, and the trees along the road were bare, creating a strong winter atmosphere.

If he really dared to run, her gaze darkened, then she would just knock him out and drag him away!

Looking at the grades on her phone, Song Yao's expression was also a bit strange; two perfect scores, and the others were all at the passing line—this was clearly the teachers pulling them up.

They had booked their flight back for February 8th.

In the bedroom, after finishing her chat with Song Yao, Ding Jiahui sighed and first flipped through Guo Ziyang's Moments. The last post was from January 1st, a photo of him having dinner with classmates.

In the study, Gu Zhizhong was looking at the training problems done by the MCM competition team.

"You tell Guo Ziyang to be bolder; right now he doesn't even dare to show his face." "I've told him that too, but he says he still feels awkward when he sees Ding Jiahui."

Song Yao glanced at the boy opposite her and typed: "That situation won't happen."

Song Yao took a deep breath of the fresh air outside and hid her pretty face under her scarf, while saying: "After we go back, let's call Guo Ziyang and Jiahui out for a meal together."

It's all Guo Ziyang's fault, why did he have to confess so suddenly! In the Jing University library, Xu Qingzhou was immersed in the book "Methods of Number Theory" in front of him. He had read this book at the time because of the Cramér conjecture, mainly learning about prime gaps. Now that he was free, he wanted to read it all the way through.

Thinking for a moment, she typed again: "If it were you, what would you do? If Xu Qingzhou confessed to you, you rejected him, and then he ran away whenever he saw you, avoiding you all day long..."

Xu Qingzhou sighed with emotion: "Tsk tsk, 1st in the major, amazing."

Ding Jiahui was really afraid that Song Yao would send a "Delete" message.

Xu Qingzhou was helpless; young people still had thin skin. It was just a failed confession, what was there to be shy about?

The caller's name was Yang Shouzhong, currently teaching at UC Berkeley.

Xu Qingzhou couldn't figure it out and recalled everything from the past few days, wondering if he had done anything wrong recently?

The project application was slow to come down, but Xu Qingzhou wasn't in a hurry; he was very confident in his experimental scheme. This experiment was originally done in 2023, and putting it in the present, it could be considered a small piece of black technology. "Advanced Math 94."

"Hehe, what can you do?"

Xu Qingzhou felt very wronged and protested to Song Yao: "Next time, please change the word; I haven't even done anything yet, and you call me a pervert every day."

Xu Qingzhou handed over his phone for her to see for herself.

Ding Jiahui rolled on the bed, feeling terrible: "Ahhh, so annoying!"

Seeing Xu Qingzhou questioning her math, Song Yao retorted: "My math is actually not bad, okay? It's not like everyone is a pervert like you."

Xu Qingzhou thought about Song Yao struggling with Advanced Math problems a while ago: "How is Advanced Math?"

Ding Jiahui: "We'll see when the time comes. Alright, I won't disturb your reading."

"Hmph hmph, amazing, right." Song Yao lifted her chin, feeling a bit proud, although... if this guy studied seriously and got all his subjects in order, he would definitely be better than her.

A rapid phone ringtone sounded.

Song Yao nodded; these things couldn't be explained clearly on the phone, and she asked: "Are your grades out?"

Staring at this sentence, she was suddenly stunned. Did Yaoyao's words mean she wouldn't reject Xu Qingzhou, or just that a situation like hers and Guo Ziyang's wouldn't happen? She wanted to type and ask clearly, but then she thought about how her own affairs weren't even sorted out yet.

Song Yao said: "I am 1st in our Economics major."

【That situation won't happen.】

Xu Qingzhou was lamenting his grades, and for some reason, his back suddenly felt a bit cold. He looked up and saw Song Yao staring straight at him; this look of wanting to beat someone up was too familiar!

In the "Hehe," Xu Qingzhou felt full of contempt, but... he couldn't beat her, absolutely couldn't beat her; he could only be pressed to the ground and rubbed.

She opened her chat history with Song Yao again and flipped through her best friend's comfort.

Xu Qingzhou asked: "How about you guys?"

Song Yao felt that such a sad thing would definitely not happen to her, so she typed: "Jiahui, wait until Xu Qingzhou and I go back, I'll help you call Guo Ziyang out, and you guys can talk."

However, this guy didn't seem to need his politics grades to prove anything either.

January 22nd, 9:00 PM.

Gu Zhizhong picked up his phone, looked at the caller's name, and was suddenly surprised: "Why is this old guy calling me?"

When Song Yao said the last sentence, two senior students happened to pass by. Not knowing if they had heard the word "pervert," they both cast strange looks.

Ding Jiahui: "I said 'if,' 'if'!"

He could only hatefully think, Song Yao, oh Song Yao, there will be a day when you shed tears.

At this time, they should just be starting work over there.

Song Yao: "Okay."

Hmph, he went out to eat and drink right after confessing; he really didn't care at all. It was a waste of her being depressed and conflicted for several days, Ding Jiahui thought hatefully in her heart.

"Okay." Xu Qingzhou nodded, feeling a bit of a headache thinking about the twisted relationship between these two.

The call connected, and a full-voiced sound rang out in the study.

"Old Gu, you guy are too unkind. You Jing University did such a big thing without a sound, and you didn't even reveal a hint of news?!"

"Hmm?"

Gu Zhizhong looked blank.
