Chapter 9 Who do you think you are?
Cen Nian had a day of classes and felt dizzy. The pace of the affiliated middle school was very fast. After finishing the textbook course, the teacher would supplement the knowledge outside the textbook.
The pace of this class was much faster than before. She tried very hard to listen, but she always fell behind in math class.
Cen Nian fell into deep thought as he looked at the densely packed notes on the table, but everyone in the class was very smart. They actively answered the teacher's questions, and every time a new knowledge point was explained, they would nod in serious understanding.
Only she wanted to shake her head and ask the teacher to explain it again.
"Cen Nian, why do you look so depressed? Aren't you leaving?" Zhu Zhiyao picked up her schoolbag and was about to leave.
Cen Nian looked outside the classroom. It was already dark. The pointer on the wall pointed to 9:30 in the evening. The evening study session was over.
"I'll wait a moment."
Zhu Zhiyao nodded: "Okay, then don't be too late, I'll leave first, see you tomorrow."
"Bye~"
Most people had left the classroom. The evening study session for the first and second grade students of the affiliated high school ended at 9:30 and at 3:30. Two-thirds of the students were day students. Cen Nian looked at the message on his phone. Uncle Li called to say that he was delayed by something and would arrive half an hour late.
Cen Nian told Uncle Li not to worry, and she would study in the classroom for a while longer. It was just right. She knew very well that the early bird catches the worm. Since she couldn't keep up, she might as well learn more on her own. Any progress would be a good thing.
Thinking of this, she seemed to secretly encourage herself, picked up the pen and started writing in the exercise book.
Cen Nian completed twelve math multiple-choice questions. After writing down the last option, she carefully flipped through the answers, muttering, "Please, please, it's okay to get more than five correct."
She covered the other answers and checked them one by one. She couldn't help but jump for joy every time she got one right. After checking all the answers, she only got three wrong!
But her happiness didn't last long. When she finished the last fill-in-the-blank question, she started to have trouble again.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the high school teaching building, which had been a little noisy just now, had now become silent. Cen Nian did not notice this until the classroom was plunged into darkness.
She was stunned for several seconds. The lights in all the classrooms were turned off, leaving only the lights from the corridor shining through the glass into the classroom.
Cen Nian was stunned for several seconds and didn't notice the footsteps at the front door. Suddenly, two crisp knocks were heard.
“Dongdong——”
She was startled and turned around to look at the back door. A tall and thin figure was leaning casually against the front door. Because of the darkness, she could not see it clearly. It was just a blurry figure, but it was very beautiful in a different way.
Cen Nian blinked, not knowing what the man meant. "Security uncle? I'm packing up and leaving now."
"Cen Nian, are you leaving or not?"
The cold voice seemed to be forced out, and Cen Nian shuddered: "Jin Siyang?"
"Who else do you think it is?" Jin Siyang's tone remained unchanged, but his tone became even colder: "Security?"
Cen Nian wanted to crawl into a hole. It was so embarrassing. She mistook Jin Siyang for a security guard.
"I...I'll pack my things right away." She stood up and packed hurriedly. After zipping up her clothes, she rushed out the door. In a moment of carelessness, her knee hit the table leg, making a heavy thud, and she gasped in pain.
Cen Nian didn't have time to pay attention to these things. She was just worried that Jin Siyang had been waiting for too long, so she hurried over to him and said, "I'm fine. Did Uncle Li ask you to come in to see me?"
She looked at the black screen of her phone and said, "I'm sorry, my phone runs out of battery easily."
As she spoke, her voice became weaker and weaker.
In the darkness, she couldn't see Jin Siyang's eyes clearly, but she quickly looked up at his face and then lowered her head again.
Jin Siyang seemed to sigh softly: "Gone."
Cen Nian nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Oh." After that, she followed him at a distance. If she walked too close, if someone saw her, there might be some misunderstanding.
It was precisely because she was walking behind Jin Siyang that she dared to look at him carefully and seriously.
Jin Siyang is very tall, with broad shoulders that make his school uniform look very nice. His butterfly bones are slightly protruding, and his waist is thin and beautiful. He has a pair of strong and thin hands hanging at his sides, which sway with his steps. The veins on his hands are obvious, his knuckles are slender, and his bones look very strong. The hand control mentioned on the Internet may be what he is like.
As they passed the corner, Cen Nian was lost in thought. Jin Siyang suddenly slowed down his pace. She didn't notice and bumped into Jin Siyang's shoulder blade.
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I..."
Before she could finish her words, Jin Siyang turned around slowly and glanced at her with his eyes lowered: "Cen Nian, are you blind?"
Cen Nian's cheeks flushed. After hearing what he said, she couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "It was you who suddenly slowed down."
When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. She spoke very quietly and quickly, and if you didn't listen carefully, you would definitely not be able to hear it. She was sure that Jin Siyang couldn't hear it, but when she looked up and followed him, she felt his figure pause for a moment.
Uncle Meng's car stopped at the school gate. He met Cen Nian for the first time. He only knew that the Jin family sponsored a girl. Later, the girl came to Jiang City to go to school and lived in the Jin family.
Cen Nian is always well-behaved and polite when he sees adults: "Hello, uncle."
Uncle Meng smiled and opened the door. "Hello, classmate Cen Nian. Uncle Li said he was delayed tonight and asked me to pick you and Si Yang up."
Cen Nian pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you, uncle."
"You are welcome."
The three-person carriage was exceptionally silent. Uncle Meng was also a quiet person. Cen Nian sat awkwardly beside him, looking at Jin Siyang's handsome and cold face. After thinking for a long time, he spoke: "I saw you on the school bulletin board today. You got first place. How impressive."
Cen Nian raised his voice slightly, softened his tone at the end, and spoke in a gentle voice.
Jin Siyang glanced at him sideways, with an expression that said, "What on earth do you want to say?" "Well, so what?"
The corner of Cen Nian's mouth twitched slightly, and she blinked awkwardly: "So, I just want to praise you for being awesome."
Looking at his calm profile, Cen Nian obediently sat back in her original seat. Well, the plan to ease the embarrassment failed.
She decided not to speak. Uncle Meng in front of her suddenly smiled. He glanced in the rearview mirror and said, "Si Yang has always been number one in his grades. He's used to it."
Hearing Uncle Meng's voice, Cen Nian felt as if she had been saved. She replied, "That's amazing!"
"Nian Nian's grades are pretty good too!"
Uncle Meng was very familiar with people, but once he started talking, Cen Nian wanted him to shut up. She stammered, "That... wasn't very good."
Uncle Meng chuckled, his laughter was full of kindness. "Niannian is too modest. In Jiang City, anyone who can get into the Affiliated High School is extraordinary. This school has a lot of requirements for accepting students."
Cen Nian sighed slightly. How on earth did she jump from one embarrassing pit to another?
Uncle, Cen Nian is the accident.
Cen Nian turned her head away somewhat desperately, her face flushed with embarrassment and her expression bitter. When she raised her eyes, she seemed to catch a glimpse of Jin Siyang's mouth corners slightly raised. When she confirmed again, his expression had not changed at all.
Uh...she must be crazy, why is Jin Siyang laughing!
It didn't seem right, because he was smiling at the confident and beautiful girl on the dance machine.
Thinking of this, Cen Nian sat up straight silently, facing outside, watching the lights of thousands of homes flashing by outside the window.
