Shen Lan raised her eyebrows slightly: "So this kind of person is suitable for learning programming?"

"It's better to stay at home..." He was talking halfway when the plane suddenly started to speed up. So he closed his mouth and subconsciously looked out the window.

Shen Lan added: "This is my first time on a plane, how about you?"

Xu Zhe couldn't bring in his past life's experience, so he could only answer, "It's my first time, too."

Shen Lan suddenly felt a little worried: "I heard that it would be a bit uncomfortable when taking off..."

Xu Zhe: "Do you get carsick? If not, it should be fine."

Shen Lan forced a smile: "I can't look out the window when I'm in the car, otherwise I'll get dizzy. So this time I'll let you sit by the window."

Xu Zhe couldn't help but complain: "Then you also played go-karts with Feifei last time?"

Shen Lan sighed, "So I lost to her. Besides, it's okay to drive by yourself, but as long as the steering wheel is not in your hands, you don't know what will happen next, and it's easy to get dizzy..."

Xu Zhe was about to say something else, but at this moment, the plane suddenly accelerated again. The passengers immediately felt a strong push on their backs, and were pressed against the backs of their seats by inertia.

Shen Lan was no exception. She just subconsciously made a move, which was to grab Xu Zhe's right hand with her left hand.

Xu Zhe looked at her and asked in a low voice: "How do you feel?"

"Dizziness," Shen Lan frowned, "There seems to be something in my ear..."

Xu Zhe: "Tinnitus is normal. Come on, open your mouth and balance the air pressure, it should feel better."

Shen Lan did as she was told. She half opened her mouth, but her expression was still tangled, and it was clear that she hadn't gotten much better.

The plane was still shaking violently.

Sitting in the cabin, it felt like being at the center of an earthquake, and Shen Lan's face turned pale as she looked at him helplessly.

Xu Zhe's heart softened and he grabbed her with his right hand.

The two held hands like this, and gradually, their fingers were interlocked - this was the first time for both Xu Zhe and Shen Lan.

Xu Zhe didn't know what the senior sister felt at this moment, he just felt that the girl's hands were a little cold, especially the ends of her fingers, which might be due to airsickness. His own hands were a little warm.

The plane left the ground and rose rapidly...

After a while, the fuselage gradually flattened and the feeling in the cabin became much more stable.

But Shen Lan still didn't let go.

Xu Zhe did not say anything either. He was a little confused, mainly because he was not sure whether the senior sister's airsickness was real or she was just acting.

He observed again.

That delicate face was still a little pale, this expression didn't seem like something she could act out. She closed her eyes gently at this moment, as if she was resting her mind. Although her brows were still slightly furrowed, it was at least much better than when she was about to take off.

The two were silent for a long time.

Suddenly, the stewardess came over with a cart and asked, "Would you like a drink?"

Only then did Shen Lan open her eyes.

Xu Zhe let go of her hand, raised his hand naturally, and said, "I want a glass of Sprite."

The stewardess nodded and looked at the girl next to her.

Shen Lan suddenly smiled: "I want boiled water."

To her, everything that just happened was too sweet, so it would be nice to drink some water to clear her mind.

Shen Lan found that she had no plans today, but the progress she made was beyond her expectations. She was prone to motion sickness, which was a weakness she didn't want to tell her lover, but it worked at this time.

After the flight attendant distributed the drinks to this row, she pushed the cart forward.

Xu Zhe held his glass of Sprite, took a sip, and looked out the window silently.

The white clouds were like waves, spreading out below the horizon until the horizon, and the sunlight sprinkled on the clouds, shining brightly.

He watched all this in a daze.

From just now, he was surprised to find that he didn't seem to resist physical intimacy as much as before. Not only did he not resist, he even began to feel that holding hands seemed to feel good... Was it just because of Shen Lan? Or was it also related to the usual interactions between Song Xingye and Tang Lingfei?

So what should I do now?

Xu Zhe was at a loss.

I’m going to sleep first and will finish the next chapter during the day.

By the way, a preview, the characters in the Extras Building in the comment section will start to appear soon.

181.

2023-09-27

Huadu is a unique metropolis, from humanities to food culture, it has many highlights for outsiders. Unfortunately, Xu Zhe and Shen Lan could not experience them at all. Because after getting off the plane, the two went to the winter camp to register.

The winter camp is held on a middle school campus in Huadu.

During the winter vacation, the school was vacant, just in time for these hundreds of contestants from all over the country to move in. The dormitory buildings for boys and girls were naturally separate, so after registering, Xu Zhe and Shen Lan separated.

However, compared to the number of dormitory rooms, the number of contestants staying there was still too small. With so few wolves and so much meat, there was obviously no need to have everyone living in a crowded room. So although the dormitory Xu Zhe moved into was for six people, he only had one roommate.

"Hello, my name is Lin Keji, what's your name, classmate?"

This was an ordinary-looking boy, with a plain face, but he looked very gentle and friendly. As soon as he entered the room dragging his suitcase, he smiled and said hello.

"My name is Xu Zhe."

Xu Zhe was sitting on the lower bunk bed, holding his phone, playing "Ski Adventure" - a game he made himself, which was not very exciting to play. He just wanted to find something to entertain himself and stop his wandering thoughts.

Ever since that hand-holding on the plane, Xu Zhe felt that his mental state had become a little distracted.

Lin Keji put down his suitcase and sat down on the other lower bunk bed. He looked at the boy opposite him and suddenly asked, "Are you also in the first year of high school?"

Xu Zhe paused the game and glanced at the other party: "Are you in the first year of high school?"

Lin Keji nodded: "Yes, I asked around when I came here, and it seems that most of them are sophomores. We freshmen are preparing for the competition right after we come in, so it's not easy to get good results..."

Xu Zhe shook his head slightly: "I'm not a freshman in high school, I'm a junior high school student. I just signed up for the high school group in the competition."

"Ah?" Lin Keji's eyes widened, dumbfounded, "You're saving one too?"

Xu Zhe nodded and continued playing the mobile game.

Lin Keji couldn't help but exclaimed: "You signed up for the high school group in the third year of junior high school and got first place in the province. You are a genius!"

Xu Zhe said calmly: "Thank you for the compliment. You and I are only one year older."

"But this is the difference between junior high school and high school! Moreover, there should be extra rewards for junior high school students who enter the high school group competition..." Lin Keji scratched his head, and a slightly envious look appeared in his eyes.

Xu Zhe didn't know much about the competition rules, so he spoke cautiously at this time: "I don't know much either. Anyway, I came to participate in the winter camp to see if there are any extra rewards. I am also waiting to be notified."

Lin Keji noticed that the 'genius junior' across from him seemed to be playing a mobile game. He stood up, leaned over to observe, and asked curiously: "Do you like this game?"

Xu Zhe: "I wouldn't say I like it, but it's not bad. It can be used as a pastime during boring spare time."

Lin Keji thought about it and slapped his forehead: "I understand, this is a very simple game, you can think about the questions while playing!"

Xu Zhe: "It's just a small game, that's not it."

"Can this game help people gain enlightenment? I'll give it a try. I happen to have a Pingguo phone, so I'll download one right away. Hmm, what's it called?"

As he spoke, Lin Keji also took out his cell phone.

Xu Zhe: "Skiing adventure."

"Well, I found it..." Lin Keji frowned, "What's going on? Do you still need to charge?"

Xu Zhe: “It only costs a few dollars.”

Lin Keji laughed and said, "Sorry, I never pay for games. Isn't the spirit of the Internet free? The key is not only freedom, but also free!"

Xu Zhe's eyes flashed with helplessness: "That makes sense. So this game was launched both domestically and overseas, but the sales in China are less than one-tenth of those overseas."

Lin Keji searched on his phone and after a while, he shouted, "Look, there are free resources on Tieba! But this free cracked version requires a computer to play, so I can only play it at home."

Xu Zhe couldn't help but say, "How about I buy one for you?"

Lin Keji shook his head repeatedly: "Brother, I know that for someone as awesome as you, your parents will definitely say anything to satisfy you, right? But our money doesn't come from the wind, and it's not easy for parents to earn money. Don't put your precious resources on something that can obviously be obtained for free."

Xu Zhe: "..."

What else could he say? Nothing.

Today, the revenue of the game "Ski Adventure" is higher than that of "Fruit Cutting", but it is not high enough, just over 100,000 a month, which is a bit better than the others. Looking at the hits, I still haven't achieved it. But compared with the others, this revenue is enough to make most individual APP developers envious.

This is also part of the source of Xu Zhe's confusion now.

He felt like he was stuck at a seemingly good level. He thought that the games that would become popular were all tepid, so how could he break through and go further?

Xu Zhe was lost in thought while playing the skiing game.

----

At dinner time, Xu Zhe and Lin Keji came to the cafeteria.

Finally, we can see girls here. Lin Keji is obviously much more excited, and he would comment to his new friends from time to time:

"That girl seems nice, but her clothes are a bit tacky."

"Xu Zhe, look to the left, it's not bad... Never mind, you can't turn around and look at my face, just ignore what I said."

But Xu Zhe was not very interested in these girls. His childhood sweetheart, deskmate and senior schoolmate had greatly raised his aesthetic threshold.

The two of them finished their meal and found an empty seat in the corner to sit down.

While eating, Xu Zhe asked, "Do you really want to fall in love?"

Lin Keji shook his head: "It's not that I want to fall in love. I don't pay much attention to girls in school. But we are participating in the information competition, and the proportion of boys is too high. I think girls are more pleasing to the eye here. Besides, I think you may be interested in this topic."

So Xu Zhe realized that his roommate wanted to find a topic that boys could easily find common ground with and bring the two closer together.

It was obvious that the roommate relationship would expire in just a few days, but the other party still wanted to maintain a good relationship, which touched Xu Zhe, who was used to being indifferent.

But at this moment, Lin Keji's eyes suddenly lit up: "Hey, that girl is well dressed and looks even better! Look, the girl with glasses is smiling at me!"

Xu Zhe turned his head slightly and saw Shen Lan walking towards him with a smile.

The short-haired girl came over to him with a tray and sat down quite naturally.

This scene stunned Lin Keji.

Xu Zhe: "Good evening, senior."

Shen Lan held her chin and stared at him, then asked with a smile, "Do you want to go for a walk in the evening?"

Now it was Lin Keji's turn to be touched - more than touched, it was simply shocking. It turned out that getting the first place in the province in the third year of junior high school was not the limit, and what was even more amazing was that a beautiful girl who also got the first place in the province took the initiative to invite him!

Let me make up for yesterday’s first.

The character that appears in this chapter comes from the book review section: Lin Keji.

(It’s a pity that the name has an extra character, otherwise I could go and save the princess)

2023-09-27

Faced with Shen Lan's invitation for a night walk, Xu Zhe did not immediately agree because he had looked at the winter camp schedule.

Xu Zhe reminded him, “In two hours, all contestants will go to the auditorium to attend the lecture.”

Shen Lan said, "I mean after the lecture and before going to bed. The scenery of this school is nice, and the Flower City is not too cold now, so it's suitable for a walk at night."

Xu Zhe hesitated for a moment.

At this moment, he found that his new roommate was staring at him with some anxiety in his eyes, as if saying, "Why don't you agree yet?"
