Chapter 8 Look at me!
The next day, EOSC116 class will not start until 2pm.
Ning Zhiran slept in comfortably. After getting up, she made herself a white meal and fried two frozen sausages bought from Costco.
After finishing his meal, he picked up his computer bag, took his keys, and drove his light silver-gray old Toyota to school.
As soon as he entered the familiar path through the side door of the school, Ning Zhiran's eyes lit up.
Hey, the parking space is still there!
Death Palace Dog, why hasn't he stopped here for the past two days? Did he just die suddenly? Not bad, not bad, I hope he can keep it up and stop annoying me.
Ning Zhiran slammed on the brakes, steered the car smoothly, and expertly backed it into the parking space. He jumped out of the car, and as the car locked, he hummed a little tune as he walked towards the teaching building.
At the same time, in a Brabus modified G-Class just twenty meters away from him, Gong Huai took off his LV show sunglasses, with two words written on his face:
shock.
How could Ning Zhiran still park the car here?
Isn't he rich already?
Ning Zhiran can only get 30,000 yuan for the 60,000 yuan carnival, but he can't even afford to buy an Upass?
wrong.
calm.
The matter has not been concluded yet.
Ning Zhiran just got the money last night, and probably planned to park his car in the free parking space first, and then go to the school office to buy an Upass before or after class.
Reasonable.
Anyway, there was still half an hour before class started, so he had plenty of time. He wanted to check whether this nasty little enemy would take advantage of the time before class to walk into the Upass office.
Having made up his mind, Gong Huai pushed open the car door and stepped out with his long legs.
He walked around to the back of the car and opened the trunk door. There was a box of water in the trunk. Before every class, he would habitually take a bottle and bring it to class to drink when he was thirsty.
Gong Huai leaned over and picked up a glass bottle of mineral water. He subconsciously weighed it, his eyes suddenly falling on the Evian logo on it.
“…”
Five minutes later, this flashy G-Class appeared at the gas station closest to the school.
Gong Huai walked in and carried out a whole box of water.
The water was in the cheapest soft plastic bottles with white letters on a blue background, $2.99 a bottle.
Gong Huai loaded the box of water into the trunk, turned the steering wheel again and drove to the school. When he arrived, he took a plastic bottle of mineral water with a serious expression before going to the teaching building.
...Another five and a half minutes of life wasted.
As soon as Gong Huai entered the teaching building, he went to the Upass office next to the Bookstore and took a walk around.
I didn’t see Ning Zhiran.
An inexplicable emotion crept up his chest. Gong Huai turned around and headed towards the classroom for the elective course. As he passed the school cafe, he saw the man immediately.
Ning Zhiran.
Ning Zhiran was wearing a loose beige sweatshirt today and was sitting face to face with a man, chatting and laughing. However, they were a bit far away and it was difficult to hear what they were saying.
The man was wearing glasses and looked honest.
Like a nerd. A boring person. Silly, but very peaceful.
No. Why does this person have an eyebrow piercing?
Could it be HotNerd?
Gong Huai's eyes darkened instantly.
He turned and blended into the queue for coffee next to Ning Zhiran very naturally.
Although he hadn't decided what to buy in this cheap cafe, Gong Huai didn't care. He leaned slightly to the side and tried hard to catch the movements at the table with Little Rabbit Teeth.
"You said you were going to have a breakthrough?!" Adam's voice rose half a note.
Ning Zhiran pretended to be embarrassed: "It's not to that extent, but it's true... there was a girl chatting with me recently."
"Girl?" Adam suspected he had misheard. "Are you sure she's a girl? You're not being mistaken for a sister again?"
In order to get rid of the nickname "Wanzai Wharf", Ning Zhiran continued to act cool and wanted to prove to his friends that he was not unwanted. He then glossed over the G incident: "She is really a girl. Her ID is G. I guess her name is Giselle."
"Where did you meet him?"
"It's just a software." Ning Zhiran didn't want to talk to Adam about the live broadcast, so she deliberately glossed over it. "She contacted me first, and was quite proactive. Anyway, we had a good chat and we got along quite well."
"So you haven't seen it before." Adam crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow. "You can tell whether it's a man or a woman through the Internet? Let me tell you, there are a lot of scammers online, especially those like you who attract gay people. Be careful, it might be a man pretending to be a woman to hook you."
Crunch.
Gong Huai's hand holding the plastic water bottle tightened unconsciously.
Ning Zhiran was a little annoyed: "I don't think this G is a liar. She speaks very tactfully and is a very warm person."
"Okay, okay, whatever you say is fine." Adam shrugged, took a sip of his iced Americano, and suddenly thought of something. "I advise you to delete that selfie on Instagram. After you delete it, you'll have fewer gays sending you private messages to harass you."
"Which one?"
Gong Huai immediately realized that what Adam was talking about was the close-up selfie of Ning Zhiran lying on the bed.
He even zoomed in to look at it three times last night.
Gong Huai was extremely displeased. Objectively speaking, the composition and atmosphere were captured well.
Why delete it?
This one should be the profile picture.
At this time, Adam had already found the photo on Instagram, and the two of them gathered together to study it carefully.
Ning Zhiran was still wondering what was so gay about this photo, but Adam stared at Ning Zhiran's ID and frowned.
"Yeah, Finn, I was going to ask this before. What does the RR at the end of your account ID mean? Is it an abbreviation?"
Gong Huai stood in the queue, his face expressionless but his ears pricked up like a dog's.
Finn_RR.
Adam finally asked a meaningful question. Yes, he was indeed curious.
Ning Zhiran said solemnly: "This RR is very important to me."
"You could say that my life exists just for RR. I live just for RR."
So important?
Gong Huai immediately began to analyze it. Since it was the "meaning of life," it was definitely more than just a nickname.
Yes, excluded.
Could it be the abbreviation of his secret crush's name? Or did he have a heartbreaking past relationship with someone named something starting with R?
wrong.
Little Rabbit Teeth doesn't look like the type to burn his whole life for love.
What on earth could be the ultimate meaning of life for this little rabbit whose only thoughts are about saving money, making money, and calling him a palace dog?
Gong Huai raised his head in confusion and looked at Ning Zhiran.
Ning Zhiran took a deep breath and was extremely excited:
"RR, that's Rolls-Royce. I've dreamed of owning one since I was a kid."
Gong Huai: “…”
He's redundant in his analysis.
Twenty minutes later, EOSC116 class started on time.
Ning Zhiran and Adam entered the classroom one after another. Adam was holding a cup of coffee in his hand. The two walked side by side, talking and laughing.
Gong Huai followed closely behind.
Normally, he wouldn't care where Ning Zhiran sat. But right now, he wanted to know what these two would say in class, and whether they would secretly scold him again.
So after seeing Ning Zhiran sit down, Gong Huai walked forward with a water and an expressionless face.
Then, without hesitation, he sat in the front row next to Ning Zhiran.
After calling the roll, the professor said a few simple words and then asked the whole class to take a small test.
Gong Huai opened the test paper, glanced at the questions, and looked calm.
It was just a geology elective test, not challenging at all. He grabbed his Montblanc pen and quickly finished all the questions.
There is still plenty of time to finish writing.
After he had some free time, he suddenly remembered that last night, Ning Zhiran complained about him drinking Evian water from a glass bottle.
Gong Huai picked up the mineral water he bought at the gas station and unscrewed the cap.
He deliberately coughed twice, brought the bottle to his lips, tilted his head back and took a sip of water.
He sipped it slowly and even a little artificially.
After drinking the water, Gong Huai put down the bottle and tilted his ears back.
...I wonder if that dead rabbit saw it.
Ning Zhiran indeed didn't see it.
When he thought of Gong Huai sitting in front, he didn't want to look forward.
Gong Huai's show-style Thom Browne long suit jacket had a red, white and blue three-stripe logo on the back collar facing his face, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was wearing a very expensive brand.
The fragrance of the rich gave Ning Zhiran a headache.
So, after finishing the answers to the quiz and checking them twice, Ning Zhiran made a decisive decision—
...and check it a third time.
The main reason is that I have nowhere to put my eyes and I absolutely don’t want to look forward.
As if he couldn't sit still anymore, Gong Huai stood up first and took the test paper to the podium to hand it in.
Gong Huai handed in his paper and turned to walk back. When he was about to reach his seat, Gong Huai paused for a moment, barely perceptible.
Ning Zhiran was still checking his answers when he suddenly felt a strong gaze falling on him. He looked up somewhat uncomfortably.
Just happened to look at each other.
The air paused.
Ning Zhiran's heart skipped a beat.
What kind of look is that?
It was neither cold nor hot, and looked calm, but Ning Zhiran just felt something was wrong.
This is not the first time.
Recently, there was something indescribably strange in the way Gong Huai looked at him.
Gong Huai looked at him for two seconds, walked back to his seat, and unscrewed the plastic bottle of mineral water.
He tilted his head back and gulped it down.
Bunny teeth.
Hello. I didn't drink the glass bottle of mineral water today.
Can you see it?
Look at me quickly.
Gong Huai drank all the water in the small bottle in one breath. After finishing, he glanced at Little Rabbit Teeth to check the success of this proactive attack.
As a result, Ning Zhiran lowered her head and didn't look at him at all.
Gong Huai: ...
Gong Huai frowned, crushed the empty bottle, walked to the trash can next to Ning Zhiran, and deliberately threw the empty bottle into the trash can.
Although his stomach was a little bloated, this was a necessary measure to make his little classmate look at him squarely.
Gong Huai glanced at Ning Zhiran again.
Look at me quickly.
Hello.
I'm angry.
I am very unhappy, very unhappy.
Ning Zhiran finally realized what was happening and looked up.
He glanced at the empty mineral water bottle in the trash can, then looked at Gong Huai.
No way, this pretentious guy has gone bankrupt and is finally too poor to afford Evian water?
Very good!
Thinking that the pretentious brother had no money, Ning Zhiran's mood suddenly brightened, his whole face lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Gong Huai stared at the suddenly bright face, and his chest shrank.
He... is smiling at me again?
