Why it never ends

Chapter 904 Name Change

In the photo, both of them kept a restrained smile. Molly looked at herself in the picture and slowly put down the photo frame.

I feel like I failed, Ava.

You already said things would be difficult in the Habitable Lands...

But what happened here was still beyond my expectations.

……

The Technical University has officially announced the exact scope of exam week.

During those three full weeks, all grades and all students will begin intensive review and examinations. It happened that at this time, the Archipelago Poetry Club sent out their stargazing invitation. After collecting the exam times of all club members, Lin Jiao randomly picked a day when everyone was free, and drove into the mountains the night before. I returned to school early on the third day, just in time to catch the first exam that morning.

There was a cry in the club, expressing a strong desire to change the time, but Lin Jiao ignored them all. Everyone quickly realized that Lin Jiao was stuck at this time on purpose. She wanted to screen out those members who would prioritize exams before club activities - or, she wanted to filter out those members who were not good at time management and just wanted to Can be screened out by cramming during exam week.

This very unfriendly decision offended several members, so another group of people decided to withdraw from the club.

While proofreading the final preparations with several old club members, Cheng Xiaoshu was responsible for copying the personnel list. Lin Jiao glanced at the side: "Have you told Ksenia?"

"There's nothing wrong," Lin Jiao said. "After a while, you finish copying the list and send it directly to the Federation of Socialist Associations. Watch Teacher Cai sign it, stamp it and take the rest of the documents back - remember, all of us The content of the activities is based on what is written in the application materials. Don’t answer any additional questions from her. If she asks, just say you don’t know and let her ask me.”

Hesta stood alone at the edge of the crowd. During this period, someone occasionally hesitated to go over and talk to her, but seeing that she was wearing a hood and looking like she was keeping away from strangers, they could only hold back and take the initiative to talk.

"What are you thinking about? Staying here in a daze all night."

Lin Jiao shook his head.

"I told you," Cheng Xiaoshu said, "They are very familiar with each other. Jane would come to every drama club event before -"

"I told you, she said she didn't have time."

"What's wrong with your reaction..." Cheng Xiaoshu was a little unhappy, "What did I do wrong?"

"Hey..." Lin Jiao looked at Cheng Xiaoshu's constantly moving pen tip and muttered to himself, "That's why I strongly object to everyone falling in love nearby. Two people who were good to each other, well, now they have to choose one or the other."

"I also made an appointment with Hanshan to go to the library. Let's go first." Lin Jiao started to put on his coat. "Thank you for your hard work."

On a winter night, everyone gathered in the square in front of the city hall.

"Row."

"Ah?" Lin Jiao was a little surprised, "What did you say?"

"It's okay." Cheng Xiaoshu wrote quickly without raising her head, "Just hand over the materials, thank you for anything."

The door closed from the outside, and Cheng Xiaoshu was alone in the entire classroom. She was humming in her heart and copying quickly. Lin Jiao's last sentence seemed to spin twice in her mind along with all the insignificant background sounds, and finally broke into her attention.

"Did you tell her that Jane was going too?"

"Just talk normally, and then she asked me who else was going, and I just mentioned a few friends we all know——"

Cheng Xiaoshu stopped writing and looked up at the door of the classroom where Lin Jiao left, her pupils trembling.

The car finally arrived. Cheng Xiaoshu helped count the number of people and luggage. After finishing all the things at hand, she ran directly behind Hesta and touched her shoulder.

——What did she just say?

……

"Wear less." Hesta whispered, "It's cold."

"Didn't I tell you to bring thick clothes? It's so cold in the city, what should you do when you go up the mountain?"

Hesta pointed to the luggage space in the middle of the big car, "...the down jacket is in the box." "Forget it, let's get in the car first."

Cheng Xiaoshu pushed Hesta to the back of the bus. As soon as the two sat down, Hesta began to fasten his seat belt.

Cheng Xiaoshu smiled and fastened herself: "This is the first time I see someone wearing a seat belt on a bus."

"Of course you have to fasten it," Hesta said, "otherwise you will easily be thrown out of the seat in the event of a car accident."

"Are you ok?"

"Sleepy."

Cheng Xiaoshu glanced at Hesta. During this period of time, she was really upset by Lin Jiao's unintentional words. She asked Lin Jiao later, but Lin Jiao didn't say anything, and she didn't want to make matters worse, so naturally she couldn't discuss it with others. Cheng Xiaoshu was waiting for this trip to ask Hesta to find out what happened. However, seeing how sleepy Hesta was now, she felt that the time was not coming, so she had to hold back her words for the time being.

"I went to the Federation of Socialist Associations some time ago to find teachers there to approve activities, and I accidentally discovered something." Cheng Xiaoshu said with a smile, "It's related to Lin Jiao."

"Ok?"

"Did you know that Lin Jiao changed his name?" Cheng Xiaoshu lowered her voice.

"what?"

"She wasn't called that name when she was a freshman."

"what is it call?"

Cheng Xiaoshu turned on her phone and showed Hesta a photo - it was an old file of the Federation of Socialist Associations Activity Center. Under the name of a certain club that Hesta had never seen before, there was a column for activity applicants. The three words "Lin Jiaojiao" were printed on the ground, and next to it was Lin Jiao's signature. Not to mention the word "Jiaojiao", even Lin was written in such a way that it was completely unclear.

"It's also a very good name, isn't it?" Hesta looked at Cheng Xiaoshu.

Cheng Xiaoshu's smile froze on her face: "...what."

"There are two words next to the word female." Hesta said, pointing to the text.

Cheng Xiaoshu sighed softly and put away her phone, "...my fault, this kind of dark history laugh is too advanced for you now."

Hestad was a little confused, but didn't ask further.

"I guess it's because she moved her household registration to Orange Town during college, so it's easier to change her name." Cheng Xiaoshu said softly, "When we get to the accommodation soon, I'm going to ask her what the process is."

Hesta nodded: "Would it be complicated to change the name in a livable land?"

"I don't know..." Cheng Xiaoshu suddenly looked at Hesta, "Have you ever thought about changing your name, Jane?"

Hesta didn't answer immediately, she didn't know how to explain it - her problem was more that there were too many names, and sometimes she couldn't remember the corresponding identity.

"Do you like your name?" Cheng Xiaoshu asked in a different way.

"Like it." Hesta said softly, "This is the name given to me by the nuns in the convent."

"If you like it, you don't need to change it," Cheng Xiaoshu said. "I don't like my name very much. I wanted to change it in the past, but I was a little afraid of the trouble. Once the main name is changed, many past files and materials will be lost. Sorry."

"What do you want to change it to?" Hesta asked.

"Not ready yet."

Cheng Xiaoshu replied softly. The bus happened to leave at this time. Cheng Xiaoshu put on the eye mask and adjusted her posture slightly.

"...Anyway, I won't call you 'Xiao Shu' anymore."
