Final exam week stretched on for a whole week, and Yu Lian warned all the men, good and bad, not to bother her, finally getting two peaceful days.

She hadn't paid much attention in class this semester, so she planned to cram before the exam to try and avoid failing.

They said they were going to study, but they did a lot of pre-study work. They tied their hair up with a hairband, put on noise-canceling headphones to play instrumental music, set up a fully charged tablet, and laid out a table full of highlighters and pens of various colors, with a small timer clock on the corner of the table.

Gu Yitong pushed open the dormitory door and saw all this, so she didn't dare to go in. Her eyes searched for the filming equipment for a long time, thinking that she was going to become some kind of little sweet potato blogger.

During finals week, everyone in the dorm was there, even Bai Jiayin had returned. Her desk was piled high with bottles and jars. After dabbing and smearing for a while, she turned around and saw Yu Lian's mess, and chuckled.

"It's better to get some sleep than to waste time on this useless stuff. Just honestly retake the exams next semester."

Yu Lian felt that Bai Jiayin had been very talkative lately. Normally, it was fine, she wouldn't bother with such a rich and wicked person, but when she was studying, she felt really irritable.

Their moral character began to decline, and their mental state became increasingly driven by a thirst for novelty.

If anyone bothers her while she's studying, she'll stop and argue with them for a while.

The pen slammed onto the blank textbook with a loud thud.

Yu Lian turned around: "You're really amazing, aren't you? If you're so amazing, how come you're in the same school and major as me?"

Bai Jiayin didn't expect her to say something like that. She choked on the water she had just drunk. Her fully implanted eyelashes were thick and she looked like a ghost when she lifted her eyelids to glare at people.

"My GPA is 3.94, what about you? Are you second to last? Did I say something wrong when I told you to stop pretending to study? You were like this last semester too, and what did you do in the end?"

Yu Lian fell silent.

  

S University is a top-tier university in the country, so prestigious that the very title of "S University student" is enough to exude allure. If Yu Lian were acting like this now, she definitely wouldn't have been able to get in.

Yu Lian's high school years coincided with the poorest period in her family's life. Her father had borrowed money to speculate in stocks and was now heavily in debt; debt collectors even called Yu Lian's cell phone. Bearing the earnest expectation that Yu Sihui's education would change her destiny, she studied relentlessly every day, and then performed exceptionally well in the college entrance examination.

It didn't even reach the S University line.

In the end, it was the local residents of S City who stepped in and gave it a helping hand.

Yu Lian herself had no ambitions, and Yu Sihui didn't know anything about filling out college applications. After asking all sorts of people and relatives she knew, she still wasn't reassured and found an agency to help her fill out the applications.

Yu Lian was taking the MBTI test, the Holland Occupational Theory test, and having her palmistry and fortune telling analyzed. After a day, the teacher, under Yu Lian's skeptical gaze, decided on the hottest major: finance.

Yu Lian felt at the time that this organization was probably not as good as Doubao.

Later, Yu Sihui reunited with Lu Jiefei's father, an old acquaintance, and they started dating again. She also opened a small beauty salon. With more things to do and more to do, she had less time to care about Yu Lian's studies.

After the beauty salon got on track for the first month, Yu Sihui took her employees to a big hotel for a celebration banquet. She got drunk and went home to hug Yu Lian and cry, saying sentimental things like, "Daughter, even if you don't work hard or go to work in the future, I will still support you." It's hard to believe whether these sentimental words are true or not.

Anyway, Yu Lian believed it. All those years of hoping her mother would become a dragon were for this moment.

When the first semester's grades came out, Bai Jiayin ranked first, while Yu Lian searched through the list for a long time but couldn't find her place.

She pursed her lips, feeling incredibly guilty at the mention of GPA. She regretted choosing the academic track and started arguing with Bai Jiayin. After a few seconds, she said quietly.

"I didn't do well on the test, don't you bear any responsibility?"

Bai Jiayin's expression went blank for a moment, and she subconsciously asked, "What responsibility do I have...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Yu Lian took a deep breath and mimicked the heartbroken expression Jiang Shaoheng had shown her before.

"Don't you know I like you?"

"...Ren." Bai Jiayin's last word was barely audible; she was simply too frightened to speak.

"I've liked you since the first day of school. You're always hanging around in front of me, making it hard for me to concentrate on my studies." Yu Lian said with a determined look in her eyes, clearly intending to play a prank on him.

"I started dating someone to forget you. I don't want to dream about kissing you every day. Are you satisfied now, or will you continue to laugh at me?"

He took out his phone, deliberately turned on the recording function, and waved it in front of Bai Jiayin's face. "Come on, you can scold me all you want. Just don't change dorm rooms."

The words "change dorm room" were deliberately emphasized.

After he finished speaking, the whole dormitory became quiet.

Gu Yitong frowned. Shi Xu, who had just come out of the shower, was expressionless. Bai Jiayin's lips trembled, and she couldn't utter a single word for a long time. Finally, disregarding that she was still wearing her pajamas and slippers, she fled in a panic. As if afraid of being caught, she slammed the door shut loudly.

Yu Lian gazed in the direction she left, and after a few seconds, she closed her eyes as if saddened, afraid of laughing out loud.

Didn't you do well on the exam? Didn't you rank first in your major? Didn't you have a GPA of 3.94?

Aren't we taking the exam in the same room tomorrow?

Since she's already doing poorly on the exam, she might as well take this opportunity to confess her feelings and ruin Bai Jiayin's mindset.



Yu Lian deleted Ao Chen's login device from her King of Glory account, so Ao Chen could no longer see her battle record. He tried to wait for her to log in, but even when he did, it wasn't her.

Gongsun Li in the first minute of the peak match.

It's impossible for him not to be hurt when Yu Lian said those things in anger that day. But after he was hurt, he realized that she hadn't said anything wrong.

Who is he to her? They're just people who've played many games together and share their daily lives. They're just the only close opposite-sex relationship in King of Glory. They've just confirmed each other's character models through video chat.

He shouldn't have told Yu Lian that he didn't like archers...

Shouldn't he have told Yu Lian that he doesn't like archers?

Ao Chen had a cousin from the same village who was a few years older than him. His family wanted to find him a wife, and the matchmaker introduced him to a girl from a neighboring village. The two chatted online for two days, hit it off, met in person, and the marriage was arranged.

Why isn't it like this in the city?

[Friend] I can do it even if you don't tell me: What label should he give you, Gongsun Li?

[Friend] I can do it even without you saying it: I can practice Gongsun Li.

[Friend] I can do it even without you saying it: It's very simple.

The other party is offline.

Ao Chen was holding his phone, his melancholy mood still rising, when the bed on the upper bunk started rocking again.

Ao Chen really didn't know if this fat archer was really that popular. He was slutting that old, broken-down guy, and his voice sounded like he was moaning in sluts, yet he still managed to find women every night.

Is it that women genuinely prefer men who play Sagittarius, or that men who play Sagittarius are good at deceiving women?

Those honest junglers who get ostracized by these kinds of people don't end up well.

A surge of hatred for the archer welled up within him.

He jumped off the bed, and unable to grab Sagittarius's collar, he grabbed his chest and pulled him off the bed. Sagittarius, who had just gotten into the mood, was terrified by this. He instinctively tried to grab the bed railing to struggle, but his hands were too slippery, and like a cunning fat fish, he was pulled off the bed with a splash.

He's all fleshy, and when he falls to the ground, he makes a thud. Logically speaking, a 200-pound archer shouldn't be so easily moved.

But Ao Chen had previously helped his father carry pigs for the New Year, so he had a strong grip.

To be honest, Ao Chen had never been in a fight before. After impulsively dragging someone to the ground, he finally came to his senses and stared blankly, not knowing what to do next.

Seeing the archer fall and grimace, fearing the archer would want to sumo wrestle with him, he turned and ran without saying a word.

He texted Yu Lian while running. His heart rate seemed to return to the day they video chatted.

"1: Do you know why I like Kamui the most?"

He's torturing himself, his heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys are all aching.

Ao Chen has never cried in his entire life.

At an age when he's very concerned about his image, he was sobbing uncontrollably in front of the coach. The coach thought he genuinely realized his mistake and regretted it, so he couldn't bear to scold him any further. He sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

"If you don't get along with your teammates, come to me and I'll switch you to another group. There's no need to get angry. You're different from him; when you're an adult, you'll be..."

Ao Chen couldn't hear what was said after that.

Because even divine might cannot conceal tears.

The coach knew he wasn't listening. He had coached two youth training programs, and boys that age were either rebellious or confused. Especially since youth trainees were basically rejected by schools, they loved to play even more than their peers. It would be a miracle if they listened to anything about the future or plans.

He sighed and returned to the present.

"Little Silver Dragon, you should know that the date has been set. It's at the end of this month, and the competition will be held in City S."

"Although you won't be playing in a match right after entering the camp, you'd better train hard this month and develop your blue-collar jungler skills, then I'll take you out for a spin."

City S.

Upon hearing the key words, Ao Chen's neck sprang up like a spring.
