Rebirth 08: Equipment God

Chapter 192 Ge Qiaoqiao

Ge Qiaoqiao kept talking to Lu Tao.

It's rare to encounter such a classic "unlucky face".

It's practically a textbook example.

Just like an old Chinese medicine doctor would be very interested in a "standard pulse", Ge Qiaoqiao took the initiative to strike up a conversation, even though she didn't know the other person at all.

Of course, this is also related to the "social cow" mentality; most people wouldn't have the nerve to do that.
This caused Lu Tao, who was originally going to class at Zhengxin Building, to be constantly veered to the left because Ge Qiaoqiao was always on his right. It was like a car being scraped by a bulldozer, and he was "pushed" all the way to the playground.

Even though he was the taller one, he looked as helpless as a child.

"Are you feeling unwell, student?"

"Excuse me, what year are you in?"

"classmate."

Lu Tao: What do we do! What do we do!
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he began to make random, haphazard gestures with his fingers.

Ge Qiaoqiao frowned and said, "Sign language. Are you deaf and mute?"

Lu Tao quickly nodded.

Ge Qiaoqiao asked suspiciously, "You really can't hear me?"

Lu Tao nodded first, then immediately shook his head and pointed to his mouth.

"It's just that they can't speak, which makes it too difficult for a deaf-mute person to get into Harbin Institute of Technology. I'm sorry, I went too far."

In fact, her own face reading skills are "nine times wrong," it's just a hobby, and it's really going too far to pester a deaf-mute person like this.

Suddenly, a hand patted Lu Tao on the shoulder, and Lu Tao, who had been keeping his mouth shut, was so frightened that he screamed and lost his composure in an instant.

"Holy crap!"

Zhai Da chuckled and said, "Old Lu, it's quite impolite to pretend to be deaf and mute, I mean to a real deaf and mute person."

Ge Qiaoqiao immediately jumped up: "How could you lie to people with something like this!"

Looking at the girl in front of him, Zhai Da even wanted to call her "little girl" because of her height.

1.5 meters tall?

I glanced at the other person's thick-soled, round-toed leather shoes; they probably weren't quite there yet.
This reminded him of Liu Meng from Utopia. It was a pity that she couldn't attend their reunion in Qingdao because her parents were going to Chengdu to find her.

However, Liu Meng is short but generous with her ingredients, and has everything you need, while the one in front of you is simply thin.

This reminded Zhai Da of a word from his past life.

Small potatoes.
She even got angry because of Lu Tao's inappropriate pretense, and looked fierce.

Of course, looks are like a lottery; only a few win, but most participate. Ge Qiaoqiao isn't bad-looking, just rather ordinary, but combined with her height and ruthless socialite personality, she has a strong quirky and mischievous charm.

But regardless, this is someone whose talent has been recognized by the system.

Although "talent" is somewhat biased
Physiognomy? The system even specifically emphasized that it's not very accurate. "An extrapolation of a certain type of undiscovered science." What a strange description.

"Biomagnetic field"? Or "mental radio waves"?
Lu Wei also slowed down and stopped here, but she just stood behind Zhai Da without saying a word.

Ge Qiaoqiao, who is 1.49 meters tall, looked up at Lu Wei, who is 172 meters tall and has long legs, with a hint of envy in her eyes.

Zhai Da said to Ge Qiaoqiao, "I'm sorry, my friend is clumsy and not good at socializing."

Lu Tao whispered, "Who says you're a friend?"

You didn't refute the claim that you're clumsy and tongue-tied.
Little Potato Ge Qiaoqiao sighed: "Forget it, I know my own faults. I talk to myself too fast. How old are you?"

Zhai Da smiled and said, "We're both freshmen, right? Which college are you in?"

Ge Qiaoqiao straightened her back: "Heh~, I'm your senior, I'm a senior now."

Zhai Da and Lu Tao exchanged a glance, both reading a tacit shock in each other's eyes.

Have we been feeding dogs in the cafeteria for the past four years?
Ge Qiaoqiao actually wanted to see the shocked expressions on their faces. Her small frame would become a "topic" wherever she went, which she didn't dislike; in fact, she would even joke about it herself.

That's what ruthless bandits are like.

After chatting for a few minutes, Zhai Da learned that the other person was a senior majoring in "Applied Physics" and was from Guangdong Province.

As for physiognomy, it's just a bit of a "personal hobby." Although Ge Qiaoqiao is a social tyrant, she doesn't reveal all her family's secrets to strangers.

But the system had already given Zhai Da the answer, which was probably that there was some legitimate family tradition, but it was passed down to sons only.

For this kind of person, Zhai Da simply asked for her phone number, and Senior Sister Ge Qiaoqiao readily gave it to him without even asking what he needed it for.

Zhai Da even forced Lu Tao to give him his contact information.

As class time approached, the group dispersed.

As for the "special item" in Ge Qiaoqiao's hands, Zhai Da didn't have a particularly strong desire for it. After all, he didn't plan to study "physiognomy," and the system had already said that it was sometimes effective and sometimes not.

If we get closer in the future, we can talk about it when the opportunity arises. After all, you can't expect everyone to be like Lu Tao, who is willing to give away anything just because he's nervous.

—————— A day of classes goes by quickly. With several courses exempted from attendance, Zhai Da and Lu Wei only have three or four large classes a day on average.

During the afternoon "cartography class", Zhai Da received a text message from Jiang Xiaobai, saying that he should come over when he had time.

So after school, I took Lu Wei to the student activity center.

In the office, Jiang Xiaobai also changed to a maroon sweater with the changing seasons, his outfit still overly old-fashioned.

Looking embarrassed, he said, "You asked me about the second credit yesterday, so it might not be convenient right now."

Zhai Da was the one who handled these matters. Lu Wei leaned against the wall, took out her phone, and chatted with someone.

Jiang Xiaobai explained:

"I inquired and the school's intention is that academic training can be flexible, but the development of comprehensive qualities should remain the same. Extracurricular credits are the most important part of developing comprehensive qualities."

"But don't worry, you only need six credits over four years, you don't have to get them in your freshman year."

Zhai Da could only nod: "Okay. Is that all? Actually, a phone call would have been enough."

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, looked down and rummaged through the drawer, finally taking out a few sheets of paper: "These are your scholarship application results confirmation forms, namely 'Elite Freshman Scholarship,' 'National Scholarship,' 'University Top Scholarship,' and 'Excellent Scholarship.' Some are paid out in a lump sum, while others are paid out in installments over several months. Please sign to confirm."

"Lu Wei, this is yours, sign it too."

Zhai Da raised an eyebrow: "Did we apply?"

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled dryly: "The process has been underway since you enrolled. Your process even started before the overall scholarship work began. You signed the agreement and waited in line for the scholarship. This should have been agreed upon between you and the admissions office before you enrolled."

"Oh right, that's right."

Yu Jinghui, the director of the admissions office, once said that universities cannot give money directly during the admissions process, otherwise it would become "buying students". However, Harbin Institute of Technology promised that all the scholarships that should be given would be provided.

Later, because I made money, I didn't take this matter to heart anymore; in fact, the total amount was only tens of thousands of yuan.
"Are there any 'scholarships for the poor' or 'assistance for students in extreme financial difficulty' here?"

He still has a sense of shame and doesn't want to be criticized online. If the school arranges some kind of poverty-related scholarship for the sake of convenience, this will become a dark chapter in his future history.

As for the scholarship for outstanding students, he, as the top scorer, certainly deserves it.

"No, don't worry."

How despicable! Giving a poverty scholarship to someone who is probably the richest person in the whole school.

The ancestral graves of both the person who gives it and the person who receives it will be emitting smoke.

After signing all the documents, Jiang Xiaobai also asked Zhai Da to review the final draft of the previous "interview". Zhai Da glanced at it and found no problems.

It will appear in the school newspaper soon, and may also appear in local newspapers and television stations if they are interested.

As they left the student activity center, Zhai Da said to Lu Wei:
"Looks like we'll have to earn our extracurricular credits ourselves. I'll go check out the club recruitment tomorrow. If that doesn't work, we can participate in some city-level competition. I'll participate in magic, and you can participate in math. The first place gets three points. We can do it twice in four years and that'll settle things."

As for lectures (0.1 points), volunteers (1 point per semester), and student council officers (2 points per semester), it will only cause more trouble.

etc.
Suddenly, Zhai Da had a flash of inspiration.
Jiang Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief after watching Zhai Da and Lu Wei leave.

This was the first time she hadn't met Zhai Da's request. She was really afraid that Zhai Da would throw a tantrum and go to the principal's office. In that case, regardless of whether the credits were waived or not, she would definitely be criticized and denounced.

Looking around, Jiang Xiaobai noticed that no one was in the office since he had arrived early. He secretly placed his "Will of D" on the desk and immediately felt a sense of relief in his shoulders and back.

She couldn't help but close her eyes and murmur softly.

"call"

"Ahem! Teacher Jiang?"

Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes, and Zhai Da and Lu Wei were back!
Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she straightened her back in a second: "Um... Teacher is just tired, is there anything else?"

Zhai Da said calmly, "I suddenly remembered something and came back to ask: what are the requirements for establishing a club at our school? How many people are needed?"

Jiang Xiaobai pretended to be calm and said in a dry voice, "Five. The application to establish a new club must have at least five people and a mentor. It can only be approved by the club department."

What is the "Student Clubs Department"?

"It is one of the departments of the 'Student Committee'."

"What is a 'student committee'?"

"That's the official name for the student union, which is under the management of the Youth League Committee."

"Then aren't you in the Youth League Committee?"

"Yes, my main job is as a teacher in the Youth League Committee."

Got it. Jiang Xiaobai, this little cabbage, has been used by him as an "exclusive cheat code within the school," and he's actually reached the highest levels of authority among the students.
"Is there a complete set of rules? Could you send it to me to take a look?"

I'll organize it and email it to you.

Zhai Da expressed his gratitude, nodded, and left.

After a while, Jiang Xiaobai lay face down on the table, the cold surface of which wasn't even enough to cool down his forehead.

It's over. The already limited teacher authority has plummeted below the issue price!

Will he think I'm a strange person?
They wouldn't completely disregard me, a recent graduate who stayed on as a faculty member, as a "teacher," would they?
But...it's really tiring.
