Chapter 83 Oh, me, my name is Xu Niannian
"I said I didn't know whether I should say it or not. It was only because you asked that I spoke the truth. If I have offended you, I deeply apologize. I am a straightforward person, so please don't mind it, classmate."
Wen Zhu apologized immediately after he finished speaking. He walked the other person's path and left him with no way to go.
Wen Manman tightly grasped her test paper, her face as black as the bottom of a pot with anger, but she couldn't act hysterically in front of so many people and disregard her image.
In the end, he could only pull down the corners of his mouth stiffly.
"How could that be? Thank you so much for this classmate's kind reminder. I hope that you can make a big splash and show us all what true strength is."
"By the way, what's your name? After the joint exam, I can check your scores for you in advance."
The words sound nice, but actually he just wants to see Wen Zhu do poorly in the exam and make a fool of himself, so that he can avenge what he did today.
Wen Zhu smiled sweetly, pointed at herself, and said, "Oh, me. My name is Xu Niannian."
Wen Manman didn't know why, but she instinctively disliked her the first time she saw her. Not only did her pretty face attract hate, but her words were also always directed at her.
Some people are annoying at first sight.
With some consideration in mind, Wen Manman quickly adjusted her mentality, with a different look in her smile, "Oh, Xu Niannian, I'll remember you."
She deliberately emphasized the three words "Xu Niannian" and then left the bookstore surrounded by her sisters.
Zhou Xiaoju and Qian Xusen looked up at the ceiling and thought about the sad things in their lives, and then they couldn't help laughing.
Only after they left the bookstore did they burst into laughter.
"Wen Zhu, you're really amazing!" Zhou Xiaoju couldn't help but give Wen Zhu a thumbs up.
"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile."
Wen Zhu raised his hand and pressed it, indicating not to be too ostentatious.
The girl with short hair also came out at this time, and the few of them immediately fell silent tacitly.
"Thank you for your help just now." Wen Zhu thanked her. If it weren't for her help, Wen Manman probably wouldn't have taken out the test paper. She also helped her delay time so that she could finish reading all the papers.
"You're welcome. I didn't mean to help you. I just couldn't stand Wen Manman's hypocritical look."
Wen Zhu could still tell who was good and who was bad, so he extended his hand and said, "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Wen Zhu."
The girl with short hair was stunned when she heard her name. Didn’t she just say her name was Xu Niannian?
Wen Zhu explained, "That's just fooling a fool. Wen Zhu is my name, Wenhe Wen, the bamboo of bamboo."
The short-haired girl also reached out her hand, gently shook it, and then released it. "Fang He. Fang as in direction, He as in geometry."
Then Qian Xusen and Zhou Xiaoju introduced their names and they got to know each other.
Fang He looked aloof, a cool, aloof girl, but as they got to know each other, she became more talkative. She even enthusiastically took them to the entrance of Ningshi's No. 1 High School and then to a small market before returning to the bookstore.
"I have to go to special training for the math competition later, so I can't continue to accompany you. Come and play with me next time you come to the city." Fang He said to them, handing Wen Zhu a note with the address on it. Then he hurried away.
After Fang He left, Wen Zhu proposed.
"Let's find a place first so I can copy down the test paper. This way, I won't take too long and make mistakes."
"There's a teahouse across the street, it would be nice to go there!" Qian Xusen suggested, pointing at the teahouse, and several people went into the teahouse together.
As soon as I entered the door, I bumped into Qian Jingsheng and Xiao Huang who were walking out.
"You guys finished it so quickly?" Wen Zhu was surprised.
"No, the battalion commander got the time wrong. We have been..."
Before Xiao Huang could finish, Qian Jingsheng said, "We haven't been here long. We just arrived and wanted to see if you have chosen the books."
"Oh, that's good. Otherwise, I'd be embarrassed to keep you waiting for so long."
"It's fine here, we're not in a hurry." Qian Jingsheng replied.
Little yellow bitter melon face.
Their battalion commander called two hours "not long"?
He didn't want to go in at all. He'd already drunk three or four pots of tea, and now the sight of it made him want to vomit. But the battalion commander had already spoken, so it wouldn't take long.
Several people sat down together.
"If you feel bored, just go for a walk by yourselves. I may have to write for a long time." Wen Zhu said to the people next to him.
Then he took out the notebook he had just bought and the pen from his bag and began to write quickly.
Qian Xusen was overwhelmed when he saw the test paper, and immediately stood up and walked out when he heard the words.
"It's not that I'm disloyal, but I really can't help you with this kind of study stuff. I'll just go out for a walk! I'll be right back!"
Zhou Xiaoju also said goodbye to Wen Zhu and went to reunite with her mother.
"Why are you following me?" Qian Xusen saw Zhou Xiaoju leaving and thought she was following him.
"This road isn't yours. I'm going this way. If you're capable, go that way yourself!"
The two of them walked away slowly while arguing.
Xiao Huang had been sitting here for nearly two hours, his buttocks aching. Seeing how restless he was, Qian Jingsheng said to him, "If you want to go for a walk, go ahead. I'll just sit here and wait. I don't need anyone around for now."
Xiao Huang stood up immediately upon hearing this, but hesitated again, "Is it really okay if I leave? What if you need someone to run errands?"
Qian Jingsheng said, "It's not necessary for now, go ahead."
Xiao Huang got permission and quickly caught up with Qian Xusen.
Qian Jingsheng looked at what Wen Zhu had written. It turned out to be a test paper? Was she copying from memory?
Although he was shocked by this, he did not make a sound to disturb her, but sat quietly opposite her.
Half an hour later, Qian Jingsheng saw that Wen Zhu's mouth was dry, so he asked, "Do you want to drink some water and take a break?"
When Wen Zhu is fully immersed in something, he cannot hear what people are saying.
So no answer.
Qian Jingsheng didn't get a response, nor did he continue asking. He just poured half a cup of hot tea and placed it aside to cool so that she could drink it whenever she was thirsty. Then he picked up the book he was reading before and started reading it attentively without disturbing her again.
One of them was writing and the other was reading, which was out of tune with the lively and cheerful atmosphere of the teahouse, but it was also very quiet and harmonious in the midst of the noise.
Three hours later, Wen Zhu finally put down his pen, looked up, rubbed his aching head, shook his numb wrist, and asked Qian Jingsheng, "Brother Qian, what time is it?"
"Half past two."
Wen Zhu was surprised to realize that so much time had passed.
"Where did they go? Haven't they come back from shopping yet?" Wen Zhu asked curiously when he saw that only he and Qian Jingsheng were there.
"I asked them to go eat first. I called you, but you were probably too focused to hear me, so I didn't disturb you."
Wen Zhu had eaten some snacks, so he wasn't that hungry. Thinking of Qian Jingsheng, who was starving with him, and a wounded soldier, he felt somewhat guilty, so he suggested, "Where are they? Let's go eat too. Next time, if you don't hear me calling, you can go by yourself and don't have to wait."
Qian Jingsheng didn't answer.
He thought back to the day before, when he had neglected to leave Xiao Huang and himself to check on the situation, leaving no one with her, leaving the girl to face the traffickers alone. Whenever he thought of her holding the brick, her hands trembling slightly, he felt a mixture of guilt and an inexplicable emotion.
But he would not tell her these things. He only thought that he must not leave her alone next time to avoid similar things from happening again.
"Drink some water first, there's no rush."
As he said this, he pushed the cup of water in front of Wen Zhu.
Only then did Wen Zhu realize that his throat really felt like it was smoking.
So he picked up the water, took a sip, it was neither hot nor cold, so he gulped it down in one gulp.
Qian Jingsheng poured two more cups, and Wen Zhu drank them all. Only then did he feel his throat was less dry.
