Chapter 40
Du Xiwei calmed herself down and said, "It's okay. Just think of it as the newbie 'X' chatting with you. Who cares about it? Since you've decided to just be casual, just be casual." After that, Du Xiwei set an example and went on to do her own thing.
Seeing Du Xiwei like this, Jiang Qiuxu was too lazy to worry about it, so she ate while looking at what Xie Yusheng sent her.
Ever since Jiang Qiuxu and Xie Yusheng were both exposed, neither of them had used alt accounts, but their chats had also become less frequent. Jiang Qiuxu's barbecue picture was still filled with complaints about the last time she'd asked Xie Yusheng to draw a card and been terrified by his luck, but now, the chat box had something else in it.
Xie Yusheng: Slipped away?
As taciturn as ever, Jiang Qiuxu thought it would be rude not to send a message, so he thought for a moment and started typing.
Jiang Qiuxu: I went to celebrate Du Xiwei’s birthday, why were you looking at your phone during class?
I guess because it was late at night, he couldn't reply immediately, so he replied after a while.
Xie Yusheng: I am tired of writing, so I will just
Jiang Qiuxu naturally knew that replying to messages in the classroom was not an easy task, so he did not continue to send messages to Xie Yusheng, but went to eat peacefully.
The seats for the joint entrance exam were announced the next day, and Jiang Qiuxu and Du Xiwei had already gone to the counseling room next door to check the seating chart. As the smaller group in the mixed class, their seats were generally fixed, with some going to the counseling room next door and some going upstairs to take the exam. Since joining this class, Jiang Qiuxu's seat for exams had never been separated from Du Xiwei's, but this time the two of them were separated. Seeing that her name was not on the list, Du Xiwei said something to Jiang Qiuxu and went upstairs to check it out. Jiang Qiuxu had no choice but to continue studying the seating chart by herself. She found her name, and this time her seat was by the window. Surprisingly, Xie Yusheng was the only one she knew in the nine-square grid.
Now that I think about it, it seems that Xie Yusheng and I always sat in the same seats during the exam, but I just rarely paid attention to these details.
This night was the night before the joint entrance examination. Jiang Qiuxu had sneaked out to play the night before, but he studied extra hard that night.
On April 15, 2024, the joint examination officially began. Jiang Qiuxu came to the examination room and sat down in his seat. He looked around boredly and found that his and Xie Yusheng's seats were placed at the same table as usual.
Is the exam limited to the perspective of your deskmate? Interesting. Jiang Qiuxu thought aimlessly as he fiddled with the things he brought.
After a day of exams, it was time to review in the evening. Jiang Qiuxu and Xie Yusheng ran to the corner of the tutoring room as usual. Du Xiwei and Wu Lin were not the kind of people who studied hard, at least not to the extent of studying in the tutoring room every day, so they did not come with them.
After studying a few more wrong questions, Jiang Qiuxu felt a little tired for a rare time. She subconsciously found a topic to talk about: "Having learned to this point, my ranking should not drop any further." Because they were in the tutoring room, every word Jiang Qiuxu said was very soft, but Xie Yusheng would not fail to hear it.
This was the first time Jiang Qiuxu asked this type of question after the two of them decided to work together. Xie Yusheng did not remain silent as usual. This time he answered quickly: "It won't be a big deal if you figure it out." Xie Yusheng's voice was still as cold, but his meaning was extremely clear.
As long as Jiang Qiuxu really works hard during this period, things won't be too bad.
