Qingteng's Mind - Middle School Era

Chapter 1370 Smart
"Where is he?" "I don't know."

Guo Kai and Luo Jun looked at each other, wondering why they weren't in the cafeteria either.

Ouyang Moxuan thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Could it be that you went to the toilet again?"

They left the classroom as soon as get out of class ended and weren't in the cafeteria anymore. Guo Kai and Luo Jun exchanged a glance, then got up and walked towards the window.

Although I didn't quite believe Ouyang Moxuan's words, I had no other reason to believe it.

Walking to the window, the two exchanged a glance. Sure enough, they had guessed correctly. Ah Jie wasn't there, so it could only be the reason Ouyang had given.

The two announced their class names, then carried their lunchboxes towards the dining area. When they arrived at the class dining area, they didn't see A-Jie, but suddenly saw Yang Yi looking at them.

After a quick glance, he hurried over with the rice bucket to where Ouyang Moxuan was sitting.

Yang Yi turned his head away, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes, and sat down at the table, waiting for his companion to return with the food.

Usually, he'd already eaten half his meal before these guys arrived at the cafeteria. Today, these two came so early and even got their food on their own initiative.

That's rare!
But it has nothing to do with him.

Yang Yi looked towards the cafeteria window, where he was now just waiting for his meal to arrive.

As Luo Jun held his bowl, ready to eat, he couldn't help but look towards the aisle again and again: "Ah Jie, he should be here soon, right?"

"Where did they go?" "Yeah, that's why someone's missing. Where's Brother Jie?" The others asked all at once, looking at the four people in front of them.

Guo Kai blurted out, "I'm going to the restroom. Let's eat."

Qi Yue glanced at Guo Kai with a slightly surprised look, exchanged a glance with Luo Jun, then lowered his head and buried himself in his rice.

Luo Jun smacked his lips and lowered his head.

Ouyang Moxuan raised an eyebrow, ate a couple of mouthfuls of rice, then picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, chuckling to himself.

Why are you looking at him? He's clearly telling the truth; Ah Jie is obviously going to the toilet! He's always been very smart!

However, they just stubbornly refused to admit it!

The group ate their meal slowly and deliberately until they were almost finished when Lin Yijie appeared.

“You go…” Guo Kai blurted out, but Luo Jun pulled him aside. “Why are you pulling me? Everyone’s gone. It’s just the four of us left.”

Luo Jun then realized that the other three people had left sometime earlier.

"The toilet." Lin Yijie smiled slightly, sat down, picked up his rice bowl, and said, "Let's eat."

The group exchanged glances, then simultaneously looked at Ouyang Moxuan, realizing he had guessed correctly.

Ouyang Moxuan raised an eyebrow and smiled. Ha, now he finally admits it!

"Oh, how lively!" Guo Kai glanced at Ouyang Moxuan, looked into the distance, and changed the subject, looking quite smug!

He actually guessed right once, and now he's showing off!

“Yes, yes, it’s the weekend today,” Luo Jun immediately chimed in. “After we finish eating, shall we go for a walk?”

"Okay." "That's fine."

Ouyang Moxuan, his face dark, looked at the other two people who had echoed him, then turned to Lin Yijie opposite him: "A-Jie, are you going to leave?"

Lin Yijie paused, glancing at Ouyang Moxuan, and smiled slightly: "You guys go ahead, I'm not going." Everyone: !
In the past, we would always go out together on weekends, either to take a walk, play basketball, or go to the rooftop of the dormitory to enjoy the breeze and chat.

What happened today? Why did Ah Jie leave them behind and go off on his own?
"Then," Ouyang Moxuan asked with some difficulty under the puzzled and expectant gazes of the crowd, "where are you going?"

"I'm going back to the classroom," Lin Yijie said, putting some food into his bowl. "We have a mock exam next week, so I need to prepare."

Everyone:!
They were serious! They thought he was just saying it, or rather, talking about them. Little did they know, Ah Jie was actually motivating himself!

If those who ranked in the top three in their major exams are working so hard, then those who only passed the minimum score should certainly not be allowed to indulge themselves.

Several people said in unison, "Then let's go to the classroom too."

Lin Yijie paused in his chopsticks, glanced at the group, and nodded slightly: "As long as you're happy."

Does this mean they agree?! The group exchanged glances, silently finished the last few grains of rice in their bowls, and then got up one after another to go back to their dormitories to do laundry.

Ouyang Moxuan and Qi Yue sat quietly to the side until Lin Yijie looked up.

“It’s our turn to do chores today,” Qi Qi said, pointing to Ouyang Moxuan and then to the bowl in front of them. “I’ll wash the dishes after you finish eating.”

Lin Yijie nodded: "You go first, I'll wash myself."

Qi Yue was about to say something when he saw Ouyang Moxuan stand up instantly, grab the rag and mop from the table, and walk towards the aisle. Qi Yue quickly replied "Okay" and followed with the food bowl.

Lin Yijie was eating his meal at a leisurely pace when he unexpectedly noticed a figure standing by the table out of the corner of his eye. He assumed it was the boy cleaning next door and didn't pay any attention.

After swallowing the food in his mouth, he found that the figure was still standing in the same place. He looked up and saw Yang Yi.
What's he doing here? Could it be...?
The next second, Yang Yi smiled slightly, turned around and left!

Did they come to verify what he just said? Lin Yijie was slightly taken aback, and turned around thoughtfully. He saw that only a few people remained in the back row, cleaning up. Their voices did seem a bit loud.

Yang Yi wasn't such a petty person. After all, when he was applying to professional schools, Yang Yi had shown him three lists and asked if he wanted to apply to all of them.

The school he wanted to attend, the one that accepted him based on his professional qualifications, was also recommended by Yang Yi, who was also recommended by Yang Yi.

Could it be that, in a moment of quick thinking, Yang Yi knew where Lin Yijie had just gone and had come specifically to see him make a fool of himself?!
Lin Yijie turned around, and the next second, he felt relieved. This letter was also handed to him by Yang Yi, and Yang Yi had agreed to the reply.

What am I worried about?

The food had just been put in his mouth when he stopped a second later. Why did Yang Yi agree on his behalf? What did Yang Yi know?
Lin Yijie turned around, but Yang Yi was already gone.

After hesitating for two seconds, I got up, picked up my bowl and chopsticks, and walked outside.

Yes, I completely forgot to ask Yang Yi this crucial question yesterday. I need to find out the answer!
He quickly walked down the steps of the cafeteria and immediately saw Qi Yue and Ouyang Moxuan by the sink. He didn't know if they were waiting for him on purpose or if Ouyang was just used to being slow. He was still washing the mop!

He walked over in two strides and placed the bowl in front of Qi Yue: "Help me wash it, I have something to do."

Qi Yue nodded: "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yijie had already quickly left.

"I feel like he's been acting strange these past few days," Qi Yue said thoughtfully, watching Lin Yijie's departing figure. "Something wrong? What is it? Can't you tell us?"

Ouyang Moxuan smiled at Qi Yue: "That's easy. Hurry up and finish cleaning, then go and take a look, and you'll know."

"Smart!" Qi Yue waved his hand at Ouyang Moxuan, sending the water flying from his hand, which Ouyang Moxuan dodged with a smile.

No, he's always been a very smart person!
