Before they could finish speaking, Yang Tao had already returned first, carrying a plate.
Jiang Wei and Jin Yaya followed closely behind. Ye Qingyan looked around and realized she was the only one without food. She couldn't go to class hungry. She clutched the card and ran off to choose some food.
"I have to say, the cafeteria at the Capital Foreign Languages School is pretty good." Yang Tao's eyes lit up. "It tastes better than the ones at our school. If it weren't almost time, I would have really liked to get some crayfish."
"We're both from the same university, so why is there such a big difference between us?" Jin Yaya sighed.
"Our school is alright too." Zhen Tian smiled. Compared to her uncle's school cafeteria, the Art University was like paradise.
"By the way, where's your boyfriend? Let's find him and have dinner together," Yang Tao asked.
He's not at school.
"Um?"
Jiang Wei glanced at Zhen Tian and said indifferently, "Didn't the boy who just brought the soup to Tian Tian say that her boyfriend wasn't at school and asked him to deliver it?"
"Yeah, I must be starving," Yang Tao said, slapping her forehead.
"Hey, you guys are almost finished eating, didn't you wait for me?" Ye Qingyan carried a plate of food on each side: "I didn't expect to be able to eat crayfish at noon."
"You bought crayfish?" Yang Tao was the first to spot the bright red plate.
"Yes, everyone should eat something." Ye Qingyan generously placed the plate in the middle.
"I wanted to buy some too, but I was afraid we wouldn't have enough time to eat them." Yang Tao glanced at her watch and hurriedly stuffed food into her mouth.
"There's still half an hour, what's the rush? Eating two crayfish will only take a few minutes. You need to eat well to study well."
Ye Qingyan reached out and pinched the lobster, gently prying it open to separate the meat from the shell.
"I think that makes sense. Hey, your technique is amazing, how did you do that?"
Yang Tao was impressed by Ye Qingyan's shrimp-peeling skills.
Zhen Tian sipped the soup slowly; this one pot of soup was enough for her.
"What have you been busy with these days?" Jiang Wei wiped her mouth. She had been eating very little, so she finished eating first and chatted casually with Zhen Tian.
"Huh?" Zhen Tian was confused.
“Ah, right, you’re often not in the dorm, you run out whenever you have free time.” Jiang Wei didn’t say anything, but Jin Yaya explained her meaning to Jiang Wei instead.
"Oh, you mean this?" Zhen Tian's eyes crinkled into a smile. "I'm renovating my house. I'm inviting everyone over for hot pot this weekend. The furniture will be arriving soon."
"Your parents bought you a house? Because you're going to college?" Jin Yaya's eyes widened. Is this how rich people live?
"No, my boyfriend bought it."
"Your boyfriend can buy a house in his junior year of college?" Jin Yaya was even more shocked.
"Yes, but it wasn't bought with cash; it was purchased with a loan."
Zhen Tian smiled shyly and said modestly, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
loan.
Jiang Wei lowered her eyes; it wouldn't cost much.
"That's not right. If it's a loan, you received a call a while ago saying you were paying back a lot of money. That wouldn't be your loan, would it?" Jin Yaya suddenly remembered a phone call Zhen Tian had received in the dorm earlier.
"What?" Zhen Tian was confused again.
"One day, you called from your dorm room and said the loan was due and you needed to pay it back. You said you'd pay it back right away..."
Zhen Tian thought for a moment and then exclaimed, "Ah!"
She suddenly realized.
"Yes, we have to pay back the money around that time every month."
"You'll pay off the loan?" Jiang Wei couldn't help but twitch her brow.
"yes."
Jin Yaya and Jiang Wei exchanged a glance, both noticing the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Hehehe, hehehe..." Jin Yaya chuckled dryly twice: "Then you really like your boyfriend too much."
"Yes, I really like him."
Zhen Tian didn't understand the meaning behind their ambiguous words, but Ye Qingyan, who could multitask, understood perfectly.
The two probably thought that Zhen Tian was paying off her boyfriend's loan herself.
Knowing that these two were always subtly and overtly probing into Zhen Tian's affairs, she didn't want to explain at all. She let them misunderstand.
Sooner or later they'll realize how terribly wrong they were.
Yang Tao finally pried open the first shrimp using the method Ye Qingyan had taught her, and extracted the whole shrimp meat. She excitedly threw the shrimp into Zhen Tian's bowl.
"Sweetie, look, I did it! Try it, isn't this shrimp super sweet?"
Under Yang Tao's expectant gaze, Zhen Tian picked it up, put it in her mouth, and chewed it a couple of times.
If she says the shrimp is spicy.
But saying that would probably get her beaten up. She thought about it and nodded anyway.
"Don't you think I'm amazing?" Yang Tao leaned closer, waiting for praise.
"Awesome," Zhen Tian praised.
I think so too.
In the short time that followed, Zhen Tian gleaned a considerable amount of information from Jin Yaya and Jiang Wei. The two women wore enigmatic expressions.
Ye Qingyan curled the corners of her lips and lowered her head without saying a word.
"I have to go now, I'm going to be late."
Yang Tao glanced at the time again; there were only five minutes left before class. She was probably doomed.
"I have advanced mathematics class this afternoon!!!"
…………
If they are caught being late, all four of them will have their homework doubled.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the four of them were still sitting at the table, biting their pens and worrying about their homework.
[Sweetie: Waaaaah, advanced calculus is so hard, I want to cry. [Crying kitten]]
Zhen Tian couldn't take it anymore. She scrolled through her phone for a while and finally sent a text message to Ji Yuzhi.
The other side replied quickly.
[Owl emoji]: Advanced mathematics requires some foundational knowledge to understand. Don't rush, take your time.
[Cat head emoji]: [Pat pat emoji]
After receiving Ji Yuzhi's reply, Zhen Tian tossed the test paper aside and half-leaned on the table to reply to him.
[Sweetie: Zhizhi, are you busy?]
[Sweet Girl: At school or in the studio?]
[Owl emoji]: School dormitory. Not busy.
Sweetie: Do you want to go on a date with me? [Innocent wink]
This time, they didn't reply to my message for a long time.
Zhen Tian checked her phone's data connection; it was working perfectly. She then switched to Wi-Fi, and the connection remained normal.
"Did she go to take a shower?" Zhen Tian put down her phone, then picked up the test paper again and glanced at it.
"It's too difficult, it's just too difficult."
Zhen Tian blinked. Had she spoken her mind?
“It’s really difficult, isn’t it? I only managed to solve one problem,” Jin Yaya replied.
"I'm going to die, I'm really going to die, I'm going to change my major," Yang Tao continued to wail.
Oh, it was Yang Tao who called out. It startled her; she thought she was imagining things.
Zhen Tian thought to herself, amusing herself.
She held the test paper, feeling irritated and wanting to crumple it into a ball.
Then she did just that.
When she came to her senses, she exclaimed "Ah!" and began to smooth out the test paper again.
"You're really daring!" Yang Tao looked over with a hint of schadenfreude: "You're probably going to get scolded when you hand in your paper."
"Waaaaah." Zhen Tian wanted to cry but had no tears.
[Owl]: Come down.
