“Huh? Why ?” after thinking for a while, Hao Ren replied to her ssage. Shortly afterward, he got another ssage from Xie Yujia, “I’m inviting you so that you can appreciate real scientists’ elegant deanor!”
“Well… it’s ok; I have enjoyed that quite often…” Hao Ren sent back another ssage languidly.
Based on his experience, Xie Yujia won’t reply ssages frequently. Moreover, it was during class ti; a good student like her would never waste her note-taking ti on texting.
However, beyond Hao Ren’s expectations, Xie Yujia pursued hotly this ti. She texted a ssage back imdiately, “Don’t be so glib-tongued! You should be respectful towards the great scientists! Just because you don’t have respect for them, I have to take you to experience it!”
On top of texting Hao Ren back, Xie Yujia, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and stared at Hao Ren from a distance. It was obvious that she was monitoring him.
“Who is Xie Yujia looking back at? She seems angry,” Zhou Liren, who sat beside Hao Ren, asked him.
“Em, I have no idea,” Hao Ren answered while acting innocent.
He looked down at his phone and found that another ssage had co in, “A lot of people want to go to the lecture, but the admission is limited. I was only able to get two tickets through my connections at the Student Council! That’s it; I have to focus on class now!”
“Uh…” Hao Ren sighed slightly.
“This Class President takes things too seriously. I was just saying casually last ti, but she insists that I have to go with her,” he thought as he rubbed his sore arms, laid them back on the desk, and went back to napping. However, the desk was making crunching noises due to the weight of the bracelets. It wasn’t a good feeling carrying at least 50 kilograms around.
The afternoon was filled with mostly easy courses like English, and Hao Ren didn’t take the sa classes as Xie Yujia.
Ever since Su Han gave him the little gifts, Hao Ren had been too scared to go to her. The closer he got to Su Han, the more terrifying she seed.
Therefore, after four o’clock, Hao Ren killed so ti in his dorm until six o’clock. Then, he went to the cafeteria for dinner with Zhao Jiayi and the other two guys, and they went to Philosophy class next.
The course was scheduled from six to seven forty-five. When the class ended, there was a flood of people trying to get out because the classroom was packed.
Hao Ren and the other three guys usually sat in the last row. Thus, they were at the end of the crowd when class ended.
“Zhao Jiayi, let’s go for so midnight snacks! It is on you since you survived the tragedy!” Zhou Liren said as he tried to push forward in the crowd.
“Damn! You have been saying that from Tuesday to Thursday, and I have treated you so many tis already!” Zhao Jiayi punched Zhou Liren’s back.
Zhou Liren giggled as he turned around and said, “Cao Ronghua, how about you treat us this ti?”
The four of them walked out of the classroom while pushing each other around.
All of a sudden, Xie Yujia, who was dressed in a royal blue skirt, appeared in front of them.
Zhao Jiayi and the other guys froze for a second; even Hao Ren was surprised as he didn’t expect that Xie Yujia would be waiting for him here.
The skirt Xie Yujia wore couldn’t be considered as a fancy party gown, but it was still beautiful. Her pretty face and the gorgeous figure had made her temperant above others, and it looked like she was dressed up for a date.
Hao Ren and the other three guys stood at the door blankly. Other guys who had just walked out were also looking back at this pretty girl and lingering on without any thought of leaving.
“Hao Ren, let’s go,” Xie Yujia smiled at Hao Ren.
“Ok, ok.” Hao Ren nodded. He then turned around and said to Zhao Jiayi, “I’m going to a lecture with the Class President.”
Zhao Jiayi and the other two guys stared at him in shock.
“Hurry up, or we will be late,” Xie Yujia pulled on Hao Ren’s sleeve and rushed him.
Hence, Hao Ren walked out of Academic Building D with Xie Yujia. He pushed Xie Yujia’s bike away from the parking spot and hopped on. Xie Yujia then jumped on the back seat deftly and held onto Hao Ren’s waist.
The bike bumpily rode across campus in the dim light of the night.
Zhao Jiayi and the others continued to stare at the scene as if they got fossilized together.
After a while, Zhou Liren stretched his stiff neck and asked, “Is Ren… really dating the Class President?”
anwhile, on the road, Hao Ren asked while riding the bike, “Class President, did you co to get because you were afraid that I would skip it?”
“Yeah, who knows if you would go for midnight snacks with Zhao Jiayi and other guys and stand up?” Xie Yujia said brightly as she sat in the back and grabbed onto Hao Ren’s waist tightly.
Hao Ren laughed and paddled even faster; he felt like he was getting closer with the Class President even though he barely had any chance to get to know her before.
For Xie Yujia, she started noticing Hao Ren since the ti he got picked up by the rcedes. At first, she was concerned that there was sothing wrong with this guy in the class. Slowly, she found out that although Hao Ren wasn’t special, he was different from the other unambitious guys. When he trained at night for the Athletic Gas, it made him unique in Xie Yujia’s eyes.
They went to Academic Building E but found that the parking lot outside the building was already full of bikes, e-bikes, and many flashy cars.
Xie Yujia parked her bike further away and then entered the glass hall with Hao Ren. Xie Yujia was worried that others might take her seats, so she started walking at a faster pace and pulled on Hao Ren’s arm to ensure that he kept up.
The architectural design of the hall was based on the Roman Colosseum. It had a round structure, and the interior decorations were high-end and bright.
Outside the marble hall, reporters from various dia channels surrounded a couple of people with microphones and caras held high in their hands. Xie Yujia was quite curious, so she slowed down and pulled Hao Ren to have a look together.
“Huh, huh. Mayor Sun, I know you are very busy, but you are still coming for my lecture,” a crisp and bright male voice said.
“Academician Hao, I’m your loyal fan! I have to co to your lecture no matter how busy I am!” a man dressed in a plain shirt said.
Hao Ren recognized him; he was the Mayor of East Ocean City who was on the news all the ti.
The Deputy Mayor, who was in charge of the economic developnt and was also Huang Xujie’s father, was standing beside the Mayor. He had a smile on his face and didn’t say anything out of the norm as he was in the company of his higher-up.
“Academician Yue is getting younger and younger,” after chatting with the tall and mighty Academician Hao, the Mayor turned around to respectfully talk to the lady who was dressed in a plain suit and stood beside Academician Hao.
“You are flattering , Mayor,” the lady with impressive appearance lowered her head and smiled.
“Academician Yue acquired another high-valued scientific award from Europe. You are indeed an honor of the East Ocean City as well as the Chinese scientific community!” the Mayor laughed and continued talking.
Accompanying the Academicians and the Mayor were a lot of university officials, college officials, and senior professors who were rarely seen. They were just smiling and staying quiet in front of the dia.
“Those two are Academician Hao and Academician Yue. Did you see that? That is the temperant of world-class scientists!” Xie Yujia pointed secretly at the academician couples and moved closer to Hao Ren as she whispered with great respect.
“It is about ti. Don’t let the students wait too long. Let’s go inside,” Academician Hao, who could be described as handso and highly esteed, looked at his watch and suggested.
“Alright, alright, alright…” nurous university officials agreed repeatedly. The mayor and Deputy Mayor started walking respectfully with Academician Hao and Academician Yue to the lecture hall.
However, Academician Hao, who seed conspicuous in the crowd because of his tall figure, took a look around and paused for a second when he saw Hao Ren and Xie Yujia before he walked into the lecture hall.
“Let’s hurry up as well!” Xie Yujia pulled on Hao Ren’s arm in a hurry and almost dragged Hao Ren into the lecture hall.
