"Yes, you can go back. I have to go too.”I smiled understandingly as I stood up from the grass patch. I grabbed my bag and spoke respectfully to Chairman Zhou.
Watching Chairman Zhou leave, my heart was as calm as water. The worries in my heart seemed to have miraculously disappeared by half. I raised my head. A large cloud blocked the proud sun, and the sky instantly turned golden. I took a deep breath, looked at the time, and walked in the direction of the teaching building.
Don't doubt yourself, don't say no to yourself. No one knows the outcome if you haven't tried it. Time flew by, and opportunities came and went without stopping. Should I reach out and ask your heart? That was your first answer.
Why not?
The professor who taught Business Management only let us go at 6:45 pm. I looked up at the night view outside the window as I packed my things. Beside him, Mr. Yan no longer had the energy to complain. He grabbed his bag with his left hand and held his stomach with his right hand. His face was filled with pain." What should we do?" What time is it now? I haven't eaten dinner yet, I'm so hungry!”
"You're still talking. You've been sleeping the whole time and haven't done anything serious. How dare you complain that you're hungry?”I grabbed my bag with one hand and stood in front of the table." The people in Room 147 said that there will be a gathering later. It's at the restaurant outside the school. It's not too late for you to rush over now.”
"Is that so? That's not bad." The moment the guy surnamed Yan heard that there would be a free meal, his originally drooping face immediately became full. He kept rubbing his hands in front of his eyes. Then what about you? How are you going to settle your dinner?"
"Me? I'm going to find Professor Tan. I'll buy a lunch box on the way. I've already told the professor that I'm late, so I'll make do with my meal. I still have to discuss my homework at night.”I replied nonchalantly.
"Oh, I say, you've really worked hard. Compared to you, I feel ashamed.”Mr. Yan covered his face with his hands exaggeratedly and reflected on his mistakes.
"Come on, just don't insult me.”I narrowed my eyes and punched him in the shoulder." Didn't you say you were hungry? Why are you still here?”I tapped the table in front of me lightly with my hand. I looked up at the time and hurriedly said,"Uh, I don't have time. Remember to return the notes to me tomorrow! I'll be leaving first." After saying that, I turned around and walked out of the corridor.
The lights in the corridor outside shone brightly, making the entire corridor bright. At this time, most of the classrooms were already filled with students who came to study. The sound of the elevator door opening and closing could be heard from time to time. The scattered figures in the corridor slowly disappeared. I carried my bag and walked alone along the corridor towards the stairs.
Di di! A text message came in. In the empty corridor, the phone notification sounded clearly. I took out my phone from my pocket and looked at the screen. It was Lan Gege.
"Ju, let go, will you? Have you eaten dinner?"
I replied,"Yes, I'm on my way."”After sending the message, I closed my phone and held it in my hand. I quickly went down the stairs and arrived at the lobby on the first floor.
"Do you want to buy food? Eat your fill!" Lan Gege sent another message to remind him," Hey, I'll look for you after class tonight. Are you up until 9:30 or 10:00?”
"No need. I'm not sure yet. Let's talk about it tomorrow.”I quickly typed it and sent it out. I'm a little tired today. I don't want to go out after class tonight. I just want to go back to the dormitory to sleep.
I walked outside and enjoyed the night breeze. Lan Gege didn't send me any more messages.
"Boss, seven zucchini buns." The steamed bun shop next to the school is a place I often visit. There are many kinds of steamed buns. They are medium-sized and cheap. Every time I don't have time to eat, I will come here to buy steamed buns.
"Alright, yo! Why are you eating so late today? Is the class just over?" The chef of the bun shop picked out the buns from the steamer and chatted with me enthusiastically.
"Yes, I have to rush back later.”I smiled and nodded." Thank you. Here's the money.”I took the plastic bag containing the buns and placed the money in the paper box by the window. I turned around and prepared to cross the road.
"Ah, okay. If it's not enough, come and eat again." The boss of the bun shop shouted loudly behind him.
At night, the two sides of the road outside the school were filled with food stalls. There were big food stalls and skewers, selling pancakes and cold noodles, as well as some local specialty snacks. There was a complete variety and everything. Along the way, the sight was already very enjoyable. The smell of various barbequed meat mixed in as I ate the buns in my hand while hurrying along.
Di di, you're eating buns again! Didn't you say you wanted to eat something good?" Lan Gege's message popped up.
I was stunned by his reaction and immediately stopped to observe my surroundings. Strange, there was no one. How did she know?!
"No need to look for me. I'm in the classroom.”It was as if I could see Lan Gege covering her mouth and giggling at this moment. I frowned and sent a message a little gloomily."Hey! Who did you plant beside me this time? Can you please stop? I'm very annoyed by you…"
I waited, but my heart was beating fast. If I said that, Lan Gege would probably restrain herself, right?
When I stuffed the last bun into my mouth, Lan Gege made another move."I'm just concerned about you. Why are you so fierce? No, who asked you to reject me without thinking just now? Hmph, go ahead and do your work. I'm going to do my work too.”
I put away my phone and smiled bitterly. I guessed that Lan Gege must have nothing to do, so she turned her attention to me. Now that they were in class, Lan Gege naturally didn't have to look for me to kill time. However, my heart still felt like it had been choked. My mood seemed to have been disrupted all of a sudden, and I began to feel a little inexplicably annoyed.
Back at school, I went straight to Professor Tan's office.
At 9:15 p. m., the bell rang for the end of the evening self-study session. Professor Tan, who was sitting opposite me, looked up at the clock hanging on the wall, took off his presbyopic glasses, and said slowly,"Alright, that's all for today. Just hand over your homework to me tomorrow.”
I stopped writing and looked at it. Then, I closed the notebook in satisfaction and handed it over with both hands. Professor, I've finished writing."
Professor Tan widened his eyes in disbelief." What?! You, you finished it?"
"Yes, please check it." I put on the cap and nodded my head as I replied respectfully.
Professor Tan took my exercise book and put on his presbyopic glasses again. He leaned his eyes close to the exercise book and roughly flipped through it. Not long after, Professor Tan nodded with a smile and kept nagging," Hmm…Not bad, not bad. Your explanation is very detailed. There's no problem with the number of words. Alright, leave this with me for now. I'll read the contents carefully tomorrow. I'll look for you if there's any problem.”
