Chapter 176: Chapter 148: A Glimpse of Splendor

After the first evening self-study session, sure enough, a large group of people rushed out of the classroom, carrying their book baskets to the corridor entrance to grab spots.

Li Hua sighed, appreciating the peace of those days, even taking a sip of hot water and exhaling white smoke.

"Tsk tsk, people hustling and bustling..."

Jiang Nian was busy preparing for exams and didn’t lift his head. There were only two evening study sessions today, and after he set up the exam room, he needed to move quickly.

Qianqian had little patience, had to wait, and then got sulky when she was anxious.

After class, Yu Tongjie’s face changed repeatedly, wanting to get a spot. But then he remembered he had the chance in the afternoon and sat idly waiting, regretting it now.

Moving now would just prove he lost, right?

From the corridor, he kept hearing "there’s no space left there," making Yu Tongjie hesitate, unable to decide but unwilling to get up.

Finally, he gave up; there surely must be some place to put the books.

At worst, put them on the stairs; in the senior grade building, there’s no shortage of books. Who would take a bunch of books that are of no use?

Yang Qiming rushed out with his book basket, anxious. He silently cursed the class teacher for being so slow, always a step behind.

When he reached the corridor entrance near the classroom, he found it was already full. He cursed under his breath and ran to the other side... also full.

"Lao Liu is truly a sinner for class three, born out of nowhere!"

Yang Qiming put down his book basket, beads of sweat starting to form on his forehead. He had no fondness for the class teacher, and the swear words had already spread to Lao Liu’s household register.

More and more people poured in here, ultimately leaving as disappointed as he was.

Ring ring ring, the bell for the second evening self-study session rang.

He couldn’t help but sigh, glancing over at the nearby restroom. Some people, not wanting to haul their books back, had already placed them outside the dry area of the restroom.

So... should he follow?

If he quickly put the books outside the restroom now, he might still secure a good spot. If he delayed any longer, there might not be any spots left, and as for cleanliness...

It was far enough away; there shouldn’t be any smell.

Just as Yang Qiming hesitated, someone patted him on the shoulder from behind. Turning, he saw a familiar, honest smile and was taken aback.

"Caicai?"

"Yang, haven’t found a place for your books yet?" Huang Caicai’s forehead and the sides of his nose were sweaty, presumably from running all the way over after setting his books down.

"Yeah, there’s no space anywhere, some people are considering the office." Yang Qiming said helplessly, "Class has started, I should just take them back."

He had been hesitating about taking a spot near the restroom, but meeting someone he knew immediately dispelled that thought; it was sheer madness.

Just the thought of getting books from the restroom door every study session...

Hmm...

"Yes, the whole grade’s corridor doesn’t allow book placement." Huang Caicai said, "I saw some people planning to take their books back to the dorm, and some thinking of moving them to the second-grade building."

"Yang, you can place yours with mine, stack them on my book basket."

"What?" Yang Qiming was stunned.

"I got a spot, though it’s not great." Huang Caicai scratched his head, smiling sheepishly, "If you don’t mind, our book baskets can be placed together."

Hearing this, Yang Qiming couldn’t help but feel moved, patting him on the shoulder.

"Why would I mind, your words are really... thank you, Caicai. I don’t even know what to say, I’ve been going through a lot lately."

"It’s okay, brother, everything will be alright." Huang Caicai smiled sincerely, looking particularly honest, "Don’t give up, bro."

"Yeah! Everything will be alright!" Yang Qiming carried the books back toward the classroom, "Caicai, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll treat you."

"No, no, no need to spend money." Huang Caicai shook his head like a rattle drum, "Just a small favor, I wouldn’t feel right eating your supper, Yang."

"What’s the big deal, want some wontons?" Yang Qiming thought Huang Caicai was just being polite.

Huang Caicai thought if he ate the wontons, it would seem like he only helped for the meal. He wasn’t that type of person, he cared about Yang.

"Really, there’s no need, Yang. I already ate your snacks yesterday, how could I eat your supper again? I should be treating you to wontons, don’t refuse if we’re brothers."

Yang Qiming felt a warmth in his heart, thinking that Caicai had an excellent character and was worthy of being a close friend.

"Alright!"

The two arrived at the corridor entrance, and Yang Qiming placed his book basket on top of Huang Caicai’s bookcase.

He had just straightened up when he heard Ji Jiayu complaining. Curiously, he turned towards the sound and saw Ji Jiayu and Yuan Zhengchuan standing in the corridor.

"There’s simply no space, I told you to move with Jiang Nian this afternoon, but you kept putting it off!"

Yuan Zhengchuan, irritated by the reprimand, couldn’t help but snap back.

"How was I supposed to know Lao Liu would flip-flop! If the corridor couldn’t hold them, I’d have to keep moving them around, how could I do that alone?"

"So what are you going to do now?" Ji Jiayu was anxious, class had already started.

Yang Qiming felt indifferent, ready to turn back to the classroom.

Suddenly, he heard Huang Caicai say.

"Um, Ji Jiayu’s book basket can be stacked on Brother Dong’s book basket, he wouldn’t mind."

Hmm? Yang Qiming turned back and glanced at Huang Caicai, feeling puzzled. Since when was Caicai so familiar with Ji Jiayu, and Lin Dong...

Just the mention of that name brought a bit of discomfort to his heart.

An old buddy moved to another dorm, just a wall apart. Yet there was an unmistakable drift in their relationship, not as close as with Caicai.

"Really?" Ji Jiayu said with surprise.

Huang Caicai dared not meet her boyfriend Yuan Zhengchuan’s eyes and just remembered Lin Dong’s advice. He could only nod and say.

"Just let Brother Dong know later, he’s very magnanimous."

"Alright, thanks!" Ji Jiayu’s eyes smiled into crescents.

Yuan Zhengchuan’s face was extremely dark, wishing he could pin Huang Caicai against the wall and question him. Damn it, are you guys sick, flirting with someone else’s girlfriend!

Couldn’t he go ask himself! Damn!

But he couldn’t say that, he could only think it. Acting rashly, how would they solve the problem of where to place the books? Move them back to the dorm?

Stop joking, the hands would break.

Forget it, endure!

The second evening self-study had already been in session for ten minutes.

Since it was the last evening self-study, the atmosphere in the class was particularly restless. The teacher wasn’t there, and the class was as chaotic as a market.

Li Hua saw Ji Jiayu standing by the window talking to Lin Dong, and her boyfriend’s deadpan poker face, couldn’t help but laugh, turning to say.

"Who’d have thought, Lin Dong is quite popular."

Jiang Nian grunted, grabbing Li Hua and pointing at a question on the test paper.

"How do you solve this one?"

...

Ring ring ring, the second evening self-study ended.

Everyone left school and went home; a small group focused on revising. They hadn’t tidied up their desks in the afternoon or secured spots, and only started to clean up now.

Zhang Ningzhi and Huang Fang each held a broom, staring dumbfounded at the messy classroom.

Li Hua came over and started directing.

"You guys start with the third large group, people there have mostly left."

"Okay."

"Sure."

Li Hua scratched his head, also a bit annoyed looking at the messy classroom. Damn, what were these kids hiding in their drawers, a desk universe!

Every time it was time to clear the desks, all sorts of junk would spill out.

Those with a bit of decency would gather it up to throw away, while the indecent ones would just yank it all to the floor. Swish, a whole pile of trash.

"Damn, why is there so much trash?" Zeng You, holding a trash can, couldn’t help but complain, "Such a mess, these people."

Jiang Nian left as soon as class was over and went down to the third floor to greet Xu Qianqian.

"What about the books?"

"Tch, I handled it early." Xu Qianqian said, pulling her friend beside her, "Thanks to Xiyun’s reminder, we reserved spots at noon."

Song Xiyun was a bit shy, "The teacher told me about it, said we could place books over there."

"Monitors are awesome, they know everything." Jiang Nian complimented Song Xiyun, then glanced at Xu Qianqian, "Are you coming to wait on the fourth floor with me?"

"No, too troublesome, too lazy to go up." Xu Qianqian refused.

Jiang Nian didn’t insist; he had invited her yesterday and was declined. Initially thinking she was embarrassed, it seemed now she really didn’t want to go, so he just nodded.

"Alright then."

Song Xiyun looked at the two carefully and asked.

"I plan to go home and study, you guys..."

Jiang Nian spread his hands, "I’m on duty today."

Xu Qianqian tilted her head, "I’m waiting for my son to finish school."

The corridor light flickered.

"Ah! Jiang Nian, you’re dead! Don’t pinch my cheek!" Xu Qianqian jumped away, rubbing her cheek and hiding behind Song Xiyun, "Xiyun, call the police!"

Song Xiyun hugged Xu Qianqian, then let go and waved to the two of them.

"I’m heading home now, bye-bye."

"I’m heading back to the classroom."

With Jiang Nian going upstairs and Song Xiyun going downstairs, only Xu Qianqian was left on the third floor, standing with her backpack among the bustling crowd, casually taking out her phone.

Li Qingrong had just come up from the first-floor office, walking against the flow to the third floor. At the corridor entrance, she glanced quickly and happened to lock eyes with a girl in the hallway.

Under the dim corridor light, the girl had an outstanding aura, her face smooth as jade. She was playing with her phone, giving her a sense of familiarity.

Xu Qianqian also saw Li Qingrong, her gaze unable to move away.

That cool temperament, killer ponytail, beautiful face.

For a moment, Xu Qianqian strangely sensed a familiar aura, as if they’d met somewhere before?

Thinking carefully, she couldn’t remember when.

Their eye contact briefly crossed.

Li Qingrong slowly went up to the fourth floor, squeezing through the crowded corridor, reaching the classroom door. The bright incandescent light was like daylight, and the floor inside was a mess.

Zeng You emptied the trash container into the big red bin, shouting with hands on hips.

"Why so much trash! Damn!"

Turning his head, he saw the class president come in and immediately stopped talking.

Zhang Ningzhi and Huang Fang were cleaning the classroom, while three other boys, Jiang Nian, Wu Jungu, and Li Hua, were moving desks. The classroom was filled with the unpleasant sound of scratching, particularly jarring.

Jiang Nian turned around and saw Li Qingrong walking toward him.
