The three of them eventually got into the school.
After all, the gatekeeper, Old Qin, recognized two of the three. As for the pretty girl, although he had never seen her before, she was wearing the school uniform.
Moreover,
"I still believe in you, so I'll give you face."
Grandpa Qin said to Lu Yibei with a smile.
Good students who are frequent visitors to the bulletin board always receive some special treatment when they return to their alma mater.
But just as Xu Che was about to follow Lu Yibei into the school, he was stopped again:
"—Ache, come and register the visitor's information."
Xu Che: ...
"No, you old scoundrel, why are you showing favoritism!"
"I trust Lu Yibei, but I trust your ability to make a mess of things even more—"
Grandpa Qin took out paper and pen: "No one can keep an eye on you. Besides, what if you're a spy sent by the American imperialists?"
"Fine, you son of a bitch!!" Xu Che cursed angrily.
He looked at Lu Yibei, hoping he could speak up for him.
Lu Yibei pointed inside: "Shall we go in first?"
Xu Che: ...
A heartless and ungrateful man.
He picked up the pen, and after much deliberation, he finally began to write down his personal information, as if signing a humiliating treaty.
As he wrote, Grandpa Qin asked:
"Does this count as bringing glory to the country, sir?"
Xu Che remained expressionless and silent.
He wrote very slowly, pausing several times.
The name "Xu Che" seems unexpectedly complicated.
It also seems that the "reason for enrolling" section is particularly difficult to write.
After thinking for about two or three minutes, and after Lu Yibei urged him a couple of times, he finally finished writing it.
He slammed the pen on the table.
The old man looked at it and found no flaws. Just as he was about to let them pass...
Xu Che then spoke:
"You lost your qualifying match."
Lao Qin: ...
"My reputation score has plummeted after being left idle for so long."
Lao Qin: ……
"Hey, bye-bye."
"—Holy crap, you imperialist spy."
Grandpa Qin wanted to chase after this brat, but since he was still working and couldn't leave the security office, he had no choice but to pick up his phone.
—My heart is breaking!
…
Xu Che coolly put his hands in his pockets, gazing at the roadside plants that looked somewhat wilted due to winter:
"The school really hasn't changed at all."
Lu Yibei asked, "Do you still remember the second canteen?"
Xu Che was taken aback, and just as he was about to answer, Ji Qingqian asked in return:
"You mean that second cafeteria that makes you feel nauseous and has received so many bad reviews?"
"right."
Lu Yibei smiled: "It has been renovated and re-tendered, and it is said that the evaluation has surpassed that of the first canteen."
"It's true what they say, air conditioning was installed, teaching buildings were built, the auditorium was renovated, and even the cafeteria changed chefs right after graduation. It seems like our graduating class is the only ones suffering," Ji Qingqian said.
Xu Che remained silent for a moment.
On their way to the teaching building, the three of them passed by the playground with its synthetic track.
“The track is a lighter color than I remember… Is it because it’s older?” Xu Che said.
“In the past, we practiced long jump, running, and jump rope on the track during PE class. Even shot put was done on the track... It would be strange if that wasn’t the case.”
Lu Yibei paused, then laughed, "Back then, there was this guy in our class who practiced long jump, and he only got two out of ten points..."
Xu Che thought back for a while.
Ji Qingqian then said:
"It seems like it was a choice between long jump and shot put, and the teacher told him to try shot put, saying that everyone has their own strengths, and some people aren't good at jumping but have tremendous strength. But after he put the shot put in, the PE teacher earnestly told him, 'You should stick to long jump...'"
"I saw his WeChat Moments a couple of days ago; he was asking someone to run the 100-meter dash for him on his final exam," Lu Yibei said.
Xu Che remained silent.
Then walk into the central courtyard flower bed.
Ji Qingqian spoke first, she chuckled:
"Won't I be punished by sweeping the flowerbeds if I break the rules?"
Lu Yibei declared righteously, "Usually we sweep toilets; sweeping flower beds is already considered pretty good!"
Ji Qingqian squinted:
"That student, Abei, is truly an excellent student in both character and academics."
Lu Yibei: "...That's right."
Xu Che remained silent... what a load of rubbish.
That's not right!
Xu Che pointed to his nose: "I'm the one who graduated from this school."
Lu Yibei and Ji Qingqian looked at him as if he were an idiot.
—What else?
They both nodded at the same time.
Xu Che finally felt some comfort.
Too.
—That's still not right.
At this moment, he should be reminiscing about the past with Lu Yibei, that jerk.
Ji Qingqian listened in, occasionally saying innocently, "So that's what happened back then."
But now it seems...
No, who is that guy who's terrible at long jump and even worse at shot put?
Does such a person really exist?
—Oh, so that's what happened.
This character seems to have become him!
“…Aji.”
"Um."
"You're really not a student of Xincheng, are you?"
Ji Qingqian shook her head.
She does want to.
Xu Che's eyelids twitched involuntarily.
How do you know so many things?
This is too bizarre.
"Abei told me," Ji Qing said casually.
Xu Che: ...
What a despicable woman!
They actually gave me extra lessons!
No, Lu Yibei, you are too.
He actually talked about this kind of thing with his girlfriend before he left—shouldn't these things have gradually emerged during their conversations after they arrived at school today?
What's the point of saying it beforehand?
"...When did I say that?"
But in fact, it wasn't pre-existing tutoring.
Lu Yibei had forgotten that he had told Ji Qingqian these stories.
"Time has been forgotten."
Ji Qingqian's attitude remained aloof. After pursing her lips, she smiled faintly and said, "But I still remember what happened."
