So, Yui was very happy. She couldn't tell whether it was because Su Qing was joking with her like that, or because Su Qing was still the same Xiao Qing she knew, which made her feel at ease all of a sudden.
"If I told you I'd be number one in this joint exam between the three schools, would you believe me, Yui?"
Su Qing suddenly spoke, his tone somewhat casual, making it difficult to tell whether he was joking or serious.
“I believe it!” Yui answered without hesitation.
"You trust me that much? Be careful, I might sell you out one day."
Su Qing couldn't help but make a teasing remark.
"No, I know Xiaoqing wouldn't lie to me."
Yui rested her chin on her hands, blinked her big eyes, shook her head, and smiled broadly.
Perhaps because she had spent some time with Su Qing, she had also picked up Su Qing's meticulous habits.
Then, Yui rolled her eyes and added.
Even if, even if you really lied to me, it was probably for my own good...
The air was instantly filled with the pleasant fragrance of cherry blossoms, and even the breaths of the young men and women became somewhat hot.
Yui didn't know if she knew it sounded a bit strange to say it, or if she felt a little shy, so her voice got softer and softer towards the end, but it always stayed within Su Qing's earshot.
"Are you trying to tell a white lie?"
"Yes, that's it!"
Sigh, I should recommend an anti-fraud app to this kid when I have time.
"Don't say things like that again. Deception is deception. Don't be fooled by white lies. Watch less of this kind of nonsense."
Remember this: people who truly care about you won't always try to fool you with well-intentioned lies.
"I didn't watch it..."
Yui wanted to retort, but then Su Qing suddenly stood up, tiptoed behind Yui, and used her body to shield Yui's petite frame. After that, Yui only felt Su Qing's fingertips lightly brushing across the top of her hair, as light as a feather.
The boy's voice was like the first ray of sunlight in the morning shining through glass, and then it struck straight to the heart.
"Yui is quite cute, I can't bear to lie to her."
How did the boy say those words? Was it casually, nonchalantly, or perhaps jokingly?
It doesn't matter anymore.
Years later, memories have gradually faded, but the only thing that has become clearer is the temperature of my fingertips at this moment.
Su Qing acted quickly, and after finishing all this, she returned to her position as if nothing had happened.
"Waaah...didn't they say it's not okay in public?"
Yui covered her face with her hands, as if trying to hide her shyness.
"Well, I've blocked it for you, no one can see it now," Su Qing said casually.
"Okay then~"
Despite saying this, Yui placed her hands together on the table and then buried her head in them.
Thus, the ostrich version of Yui was born.
Beside her, Su Qing propped her head up with one hand and watched the ostrich version of Yui transform, while her other hand twirled a pen in circles, getting faster and faster, but never dropping it.
Today is Wednesday, and the weather is sunny.
Nothing special happened; college students were everywhere, exams were just ordinary, and daily life was uneventful.
It was just an indescribable joy.
Chapter 77 The Distance Between Hearts (1)
On Wednesday afternoon, as the last exam of the day came to an end, Su Qing stretched her limbs a little and left the examination room with the others.
In fact, Su Qing had already finished the test paper half an hour earlier, but she did not choose to hand it in early.
On one hand, there was the bet with Miura. Even a lion will go all out when hunting a rabbit. Although he had great confidence in the bet, it did not stop him from reading the questions a couple more times and checking his answers a couple more times in the exam room.
On the other hand, Su Qing enjoyed this leisurely time. Before his iron buttocks issued a red-temperature warning, sitting in the examination room and daydreaming at his own pace was not a bad thing.
A clever child might ask, "Teacher, teacher, why does Su Qing sometimes want to check things and sometimes seem to be spacing out?"
This is one of Su Qing's little habits. If time permits, he believes that "daydreaming" is actually a good way to relax. If you keep your nerves on edge while you're doing an examination, the results will be worse.
In fact, human short-term memory is quite strong.
Often, when you're checking your work, you can recall the answer to the next question just by looking at the answer to the previous one. And because the thought process you used to solve that question hasn't been cleared away by your brain as "garbage," your brain still retains the impression of the thought process and the answer you used to solve that question.
This can lead us to be overconfident during inspections, exclaiming to ourselves, "Yes, that's right, that's it!"
This is probably how English and Chinese teachers develop the ability to analyze incorrect options so logically from a young age.
As for geography? Sorry, that's an absurd subject.
After the exam, walking alone, I excitedly thought, "I've got it! I'm definitely going to pass this time!"
It was only when he overheard snippets of conversation from other students that he suddenly realized what was going on.
Then he just stood there dumbfounded on the road, muttering to himself.
"I'm such an idiot, I'm doomed, I got all those questions wrong, I was originally..."
However, even someone as strong as Su Qing could only barely finish writing and submitting the paper at the very beginning. This method was obviously only used later on.
So, if you're going to be cooking, check your dishes more often, otherwise you might just find yourself spacing out and the broadcast will end prematurely.
"So, should we have club activities today?" Su Qing walked out of the classroom, leaned against a relatively clean wall, and pondered this question.
To prevent collusion and ensure fairness, in addition to one invigilator in each exam room and patrolling teachers on each floor, the school has also added a mechanism for assigning exam rooms based on ranking.
That is, students ranked 1-40 take the exam in Class A, students ranked 41-80 take the exam in Class B, and so on.
As for Su Qing, due to his special status as a transfer student, he was directly assigned to the last exam room, which meant that he was not in the same exam room as Hikigaya and Yui.
After all, even if Yui is stupid, she didn't end up at the bottom.
"Forget it, let's just go check out the club."
Su Qing muttered something to herself, then slung her backpack over her shoulder and headed to the Service Department.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the service department, Su Qing exerted force, and the door, which was not locked, was opened smoothly.
The Service Club is locked when not in use, and only the club president and instructors have the keys.
So, there are club activities today?
"Don't transfer students know to knock before entering anymore?"
Entering without knocking or waiting for a response from the person inside has clearly become Shizuka Hiratsuka's prerogative.
Yukinoshita subconsciously thought it was Hiratsuka Shizuka, and was about to sigh helplessly when she realized it was Su Qing. Although she was somewhat surprised, her tone was full of displeasure.
For someone reading in the middle of a book, especially someone immersed in its world, being interrupted by sudden noise is tantamount to...
Enough talk, take this Blue Gold Entanglement!
"Sorry, I thought no one was inside."
Su Qing sincerely apologized, explaining that he also disliked being disturbed while reading.
Considering that Su Qing was a first-time offender and had a sincere attitude, and also because he had helped her at the vending machine last time, Yukinoshita didn't say anything more sarcastic. She just gave him a reminder and then looked down at her book.
Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief, gently closed the door, and went to her seat.
Because of Su Qing's suggestion last time, a long table has been set up in the middle of the activity room. Yukinoshita still sits by the window, while Su Qing habitually sits in the center.
In the afternoon, soft sunlight streamed through the windows of the Service Department, dappling the wooden floor, while several carefully selected literary works were scattered on the table.
For a moment, the air was filled with a faint fragrance of books.
Half an hour later, Su Qing closed the book. He had been reading this book whenever he had no commissions from the Department of Service, and now he had finally finished reading it.
Su Qing sighed softly. It was a good book, but she couldn't help but feel a bit emotional after reading it.
Speaking of which, why aren't Hikigaya and Yui at the club yet? Although there's really nothing to do in this club, he wouldn't be absent from the two of them.
Did something happen?
Nearby, Yukinoshita's reading journey had also come to a temporary end. Noticing that someone was looking at her, she remembered that Su Qing was also there today.
Does she have some kind of thought about herself?
The sensitivity that had developed over the years made this idea come to mind immediately, but it was quickly rejected.
Yukinoshita may be a little narcissistic, but that's only because she's seen too many boys trying to get close to her under various pretexts over the years; she's not stupid.
Although she knew a little about Su Qing, it was clearly not enough for her to guess what Su Qing was thinking at this moment.
After all, she had already notified everyone in the group that there was no need to participate in club activities during the exam period, and even she herself was only staying here because she was used to it.
Could it be that he didn't see e's message because his phone was out of battery or something?
For no reason, this thought popped into Yukinoshita's mind.
"Why haven't Hachiman and Yui arrived yet?"
"Why are you here today?"
Their eyes met, and they could both see the astonishment in each other's eyes.
However, Su Qing's eyes showed more surprise than astonishment.
Neither of them answered.
Silence is the best answer.
"Aren't we having club activities today?" Su Qing couldn't help but ask first.
"Yes, I already notified them in the newly created group last time. Didn't you receive it?"
? !
Because of the exam, Su Qing had put her phone in her bag. She took it out, pressed the power button, but nothing happened.
Press and hold the power button until the phone boots up. The screen displays the message: "Battery low, please charge promptly."
After the notification flashed by, the phone screen went black again, and the Service Department returned to silence once more.
"My phone seems to be out of battery and has turned off."
Su Qing raised her head and looked at Yukinoshita with an innocent expression. Unexpectedly, the other person only glanced at Su Qing and then turned her head to the side as if she was suppressing something.
Su Qing remained silent for a while.
"Well, let me explain..."
Chapter 78 The Distance Between Hearts (2)
"Well, actually, I came here today to finish reading this book. You know, it almost got me itching to read it..."
Su Qing felt offended and tried to make amends.
However, it was this one sentence that completely broke through Yukino's last weak defense.
"Pfft." Yukinoshita couldn't help but chuckle, but quickly covered it with her hand. However, Su Qing could clearly see that Yukinoshita's body was turned away from him even more.
?
Am I being... mocked?
Is that right? It must be right, right?
Although Su Qing didn't understand the joke, the emotional blow she suffered was real.
Su Qing awkwardly touched her face. The last time she felt this embarrassed was when Shiina first fed her pudding.
Although Su Qing couldn't see Xue's face at this moment, he could glean some information from her trembling body. So, he said somewhat dejectedly.
"Um, is it really that funny?"
No, I wasn't laughing.
As if adjusting her emotions, Yukinoshita turned her body back, her beautiful eyes revealing no emotion, as if the soft laughter just now came from [Yuuna of Yuragi-sou].
Such perfect acting! If it weren't for the twitching of the other person's mouth muscles, Su Qing would have doubted herself.
Oh, Yukinoshita, do you really think I'm a fool?
