Chapter 389: 389 I like you (fourth watch)
Ling Que still stood in front of the window, her gaze fixed on the graceful figure in line, emotions churning deep in her eyes, indescribable, until that person had entered the examination hall. Yet, she hadn’t retracted her gaze.
The morning’s first exam was Chinese, starting at 9:00 and ending at 11:30.
The examination room was very quiet, except for the three invigilators, cameras were installed in all four corners above the classroom.
Since the warning bell hadn’t yet rung, students were still trickling in. Wang Kai had barely sat down at his seat when he noticed the exquisitely carved profile of the person seated to his right.
His own appearance was outstanding, so upon entering, he had drawn quite a bit of attention from the other examinees. Only she still appeared indifferent, not even lifting her head as if she were isolated from the world around her, sitting there quietly, her poise like jade, with everything else becoming mere background, as if she alone existed in the world.
Ever since that incident had occurred, Wang Kai hadn’t sought out Chu Jin again, likely because of guilt. He professed his affection for her, vowing to pursue her, yet in the end, he couldn’t even distinguish who she was...
Originally, he thought that he and she would never cross paths again in this lifetime, yet he hadn’t expected to encounter her in the examination hall today. The calm lake of Wang Kai’s heart, at this moment, was like a stone had been cast into it, rippling outwards in circles.
Could this be the so-called fate? Beginning at the end?
Seeming to notice Wang Kai’s gaze, Chu Jin turned her head to glance at him. Her eyes reflected the soft warmth of the sun, glimmering like ripples on water. Realizing he was a fellow student, she gave him a polite, fleeting smile, just right, then furrowed her brows to wait for the starting bell.
As the exam papers were distributed one by one, the atmosphere tensed up; the sound of rustling papers surrounded them.
Chinese was Chu Jin’s strong suit. She quickly scanned the paper from beginning to end before putting pen to paper. As a person reborn, compared to other students, her expression was so calm it couldn’t be calmer, even the invigilators couldn’t help but give her an extra look.
Midway through writing, Zi from the Purple Thunder Space touched her chin and spoke leisurely, "Jin, do you want to become this year’s top scholar in the college entrance exam?"
"What do you mean?" Chu Jin raised an eyebrow.
Zi stood up, opened the store mode, and pointed at one of the items, "This is the Examination God Possession Card. It only costs 15% of your Faith Value. With this card, you can be the top scholar. What do you say, Jin? Do you want to try it?"
"No, thank you," Chu Jin refused without a second thought.
It sounded like a good thing, but the college entrance exam was a fair competition and a struggle in life. She didn’t want to cheat.
"Why?" Zi asked in surprise, "Don’t you want to be the top scholar? Don’t you want to apply for Capital University anymore?"
Chu Jin stopped talking and focused on answering the questions.
Zi thought she was averse to the expense. After all, Faith Value represented life, and with Jin being so frugal, how could she spend so much Faith Value on it? So, Zi bit her lip and began to lower the price.
"10% of the Faith Value?"
Chu Jin: "..."
"7% of the Faith Value?"
Chu Jin: "..."
About 30 minutes later.
"Jin," Zi said with a pained expression, "5% of the Faith Value, it really can’t get any lower!"
"Thanks, but I’ve finished," Chu Jin said as she put down her pen, lowered her eyes to check the test paper, and after making sure there were no mistakes, she walked to the front desk to hand in her paper early.
Zi: "..." Can’t you give me a chance to survive?
The invigilator looked carefully at her test paper, appreciating the strong and neat handwriting, and asked, "Are you sure you don’t want to check it again?"
Chu Jin nodded lightly, "Yes, I’m sure."
Almost as soon as Chu Jin had left the classroom, Wang Kai also handed in his paper early and followed.
The invigilator watched the two leave one after the other, deep in thought. These young people these days...
"Chu Jin!" Wang Kai jogged to catch up with her pace. Just as he reached out to pat her shoulder, she deftly avoided him, leaving Wang Kai’s hand hanging awkwardly in midair, before it fell to his side.
Chu Jin gave him a look, her tone indifferent, "Is there something you need?"
"Oh, what a coincidence," Wang Kai scratched his head, "We ended up in the same examination room. Haven’t you had lunch? I know a really good restaurant nearby, how about I treat you?"
Chu Jin declined politely, her expression slightly cold, "Thank you, but there’s no need. Someone is waiting for me outside."
Wang Kai didn’t mind her coldness and continued, "Is it your family waiting for you? No problem, we can go together."
He had resolved to forget her, yet fate had made them meet in the examination hall.
This meant their bond was unbreakable, and they were destined to be together.
Chu Jin quickened her steps, "Really, there’s no need."
Wang Kai jogged to keep up with her, continuing to ask, "Which university are you planning to apply to? B University or C University?"
Chu Jin paid him no heed.
Seeing that she was about to step outside the school gate, Wang Kai, with sudden resolve, grabbed Chu Jin’s wrist and said earnestly, "Chu Jin, I like you."
