The students in mecha maintenance class two found that since the announcement of the mid-term exam next week, Lin Zimao came to class with a yawn every morning, and slipped away so quickly after class every afternoon, Wang Yi, Su Ran, top students group tried to catch him to participate in club activities, but they couldn’t find him.
At noon that day, Lin Zimao and Wang Yi, Su Ran and others were eating together in the cafeteria, and asked him about his recent return home on time.
Su Ran asked Lin Zimao: “Why do you run home after class, don’t you live alone?”
Lin Zimao remembered the content of the basic rules with Jiang Xuan, and said: “No, I live with a roommate.”
Wang Yi: “Huh? So you have a roommate, haven’t heard you say it before.”
Lin Zimao said: “My roommate keeps a low profile, and I live in his house, so there is nothing to say.”
Wang Yi always thought that Lin Zimao’s family was well off, didn’t expect him to share the rent with others, it seems that planet Alpha is really not very rich.
It is quite normal to share rent with others in university, Wang Yi and others didn’t ask about Lin Zimao’s roommate again.
Su Ran asked Lin Zimao: “We agreed to review in the library this week, will you come or not?”
The daily roadmap of the top students in the school is probably as follows: Dormitory – cafeteria – classroom – library – dormitory.
“Not certain, look at the situation.” Jiang Xuan has no time to ‘tutor’ him, then, he’ll come back to school to review.
During lunch, Lin Zimao asked Jiang Xuan on the communicator if he was free to help him review tonight, Jiang Xuan said that he didn’t have time tonight, he has something to deal with.
Lin Zimao agreed to go to the library to review in the evening.
The library of Feige University was designed by a famous designer two hundred years ago, it is not only a famous building in the Capital Planet, but also a place where centuries-old inheritance of specific historical and cultural significance has been passed down.
It was Lin Zimao’s first time to come back to the library, he passed by here countless times in class before, but he didn’t walk in.
After their meal, the group went directly to the library on the fifth floor, it was now around seven o’clock, there were still a lot of students reading and studying in the library, but they were able to find a long table that was big enough for six people to sit together, the bookshelf next to them is labeled with the professional book data of their major, and they could check them out on the computers if necessary.
The house is too warm, and Lin Zimao is often distracted by Jiang Xuan’s voice, he can’t help but think that the first time he saw Jiang Xuan’s hologram, the background was in the library, didn’t know where it was taken.
Jiang Xuan’s appearance is too outstanding, no matter where he is, there are people secretly taking photos, there are many photos about him on the forum, such as studying, walking, attending lectures, eating, talking to people, and so on.
In the library, everyone was studying, there is no chatting nonsense, but Lin Zimao was refreshed, and he quickly entered the state.
After reading about the basic knowledge of mecha maintenance principles for about half an hour, suddenly heard someone talking loudly next door, Lin Zimao, Su Ran and others all heard it, only Wang Yi didn’t hear it, because he was lying on the table and fell asleep.
Lin Zimao didn’t care much at first, although the library always emphasize quietness, there will always be some minor problems that need to be communicated.
But when he heard the familiar whiny voice, he still turned his head following Su Ran and the others’ gazes.
Then, sitting behind them was Cheng Chen, whom he had just met not long ago, sitting with him were his classmates, as well as Jiang Xuan and a few other second-year seniors.
Why did Jiang Xuan sit with Cheng Chen? That’s what he meant by no time?
They seemed to be discussing something, so someone’s voice became louder.
When Lin Zimao turned his head, Jiang Xuan happened to look over, and the eyes of the two met in the air.
Lin Zimao raised his eyebrows, put his fingers under his chin, looked with interest at Cheng Chen, who was smiling sweetly at Jiang Xuan, and then at Jiang Xuan.
It turns out that Jiang Xuan’s business is to help tutor Cheng Chen and the others with their studies?
It’s also a one-for-one activities?
Of course, Lin Zimao didn’t know the specific situation, but now that he’s saw Cheng Chen and Jiang Xuan sitting next to each other, he didn’t want to continue reading.
He turned his head back, no longer concerned about Jiang Xuan, Cheng Chen and the others.
Seeing that Wang Yi was sleeping, Lin Zimao kicked him awake: “Did you come to the library to read or sleep?”
Wang Yi, who was suddenly awakened: “…”
The voice behind quieted down, Lin Zimao was the only student staying out of dorm in their group, he stayed until about eight-thirty, packed his backpack and left.
When passing by Cheng Chen, Jiang Xuan and the others, he resolutely1毅然決然 (yì rán jué rán): without hesitation; resolutely and determinedly; firmly. did not even glance over, since they were not familiar with each other anyway.
When he got home, Lin Zimao turned off the computer in the living room, and all the books projected on the desk disappeared, he took the computer back to the room, hen carried Jiaoyan back to the room, after taking a shower, he hugged Jiaoyan to sleep.
When Jiang Xuan got home, the living room was dark, there is no figure of Lin Zimao lighting up the lamp to read at night.
He thought he should explain himself.
There was a gap in Lin Zimao’s room, because Jiaoyan had to go to the toilet at night, so he usually didn’t close it too tightly if there’s nothing going on.
Jiang Xuan gently knocked on the door of his room: “Are you asleep?”
Lin Zimao’s unsleepy response came from inside: “Asleep.”
Jiaoyan gave a meow.
Lin Zimao patted its big head: “Didn’t ask you.”
Jiaoyan wanted to jump out of bed to find Jiang Xuan, but Lin Zimao held it down and refused to let it go, Jiaoyan struggled hard and twisted around in Lin Zimao’s hands.
In the end, Jiaoyan defeated Lin Zimao, gained its cat’s freedom, and ran to Jiang Xuan at the door decisively.
The door was opened by Jiaoyan, Jiang Xuan looked at Jiaoyan, who came out to ask for a touch, and perfunctorily touched it twice.
Seeing that he had turned off the lights, Jiang Xuan stopped disturbing him, closed the door for him, and took Jiaoyan up to the third floor.
Lin Zimao scolded Jiaoyan through the closed door: “Little traitor.”
When he got up the next morning, Lin Zimao went to school without eating breakfast, Jiang Xuan put back the bread he had just taken out of the refrigerator, and ate breakfast alone, Jiaoyan went up to the table and tried to bite his bread, but was held down by him.
Today’s breakfast is a bit tasteless.
Lin Zimao bought a sandwich at school and chew it into the classroom.
Attend class during the day, go to the library with Wang Yi and the others at night, he didn’t read any books, just put his schoolbag on the seat, then walked around in the library, copied some data related to his major, then turned off the computer at ten o’clock in the evening to go home.
When passing by last night’s location, he saw Cheng Chen and the group of people from last night, but didn’t see Jiang Xuan.
Lin Zimao picked up his schoolbag and went home.
The light in the living room is on, Jiang Xuan is sitting at the desk in the living room reading a book, not drawing his design sketches.
Jiang Xuan asked Lin Zimao: “Why are you back so late?”
Lin Zimao responded coldly: “Reading book.”
Jiang Xuan asked him: “Don’t need to help you review?”
Lin Zimao lowered his head to change his shoes and said: “You don’t have time.”
Jiang Xuan put a book on the box and took the initiative to explain: “Yesterday, the department arranged for us to tutor first-year to participate in this year’s design competition, because of the short notice, I didn’t go today.”
Lin Zimao lazily threw down his backpack to pour water for a drink, and responded with his back to Jiang Xuan: “Still going tomorrow?”
Jiang Xuan: “Not going tomorrow either.”
Lin Zimao: “Why?”
Jiang Xuan: “Don’t want to waste time, there are other people who can tutor them, I have my own things to do.”
After Lin Zimao finished his bottle of iced Coke, he was much more energetic than when he just entered the door with his head hanging down, he let out a cry, but his tone obviously improved.
Jiang Xuan hesitated for a moment and asked him: “You’re still going to the library to review tomorrow night?”
Lin Zimao said: “Not going.” Then he went upstairs to sleep, feeling a little sleepy after reading all night.
The next night came, Jiang Xuan went home on time today, but Lin Zimao didn’t come back on time, didn’t he said he wouldn’t go to the library to review?
Lin Zimao didn’t get home until ten o’clock in the evening, and he smelled of sweat, he changed his shoes and went straight upstairs to take a shower and sleep.
Jiang Xuan opened his mouth, but he didn’t ask him what he was doing late at night.
For three nights in a row, Lin Zimao didn’t go home until ten o’clock in the evening.
Jiang Xuan finally couldn’t hold back, and asked Lin Zimao when he came back on Sunday night: “Why have you been coming home so late lately?”
Lin Zimao said coldly: “There is no rule that I can’t go home after ten o’clock, right?”
Jiang Xuan was taken aback: “No.”
In the next few days, both of them became late returnees, only Jiaoyan stayed at home guarding the empty house, meowing twice from time to time, no one came back, so he continued to sleep.
The friendly atmosphere between the two people before completely gone2蕩然無存 (dàng rán wú cún): to completely disappear or be destroyed and no longer exist; to obliterate completely; to vanish from the face of the earth; all gone; nothing left; Describes that something is completely lost, leaving nothing behind..
After the mid-term exams, the new students finally relaxed a little.
There was supposed to take a break at noon, but Lin Zimao was dragged by Wang Yi to participate in club activities, the reason is that he can meet a beautiful female classmate, he didn’t even eat lunch.
Wang Yi joined a drama club with many girls, it seems that everyone has a dream to be an actor.
Lin Zimao accompanied Wang Yi to sign up, but he wasn’t interested, instead, he was attracted by the advertisement of the Command Department next to him.
——The Command Department’s ‘Man-Machine War’, rich prizes is waiting for you to come and get it!
A handsome senior sitting on the side asked him: “Junior, do you want to participate? It’s fun.”
In fact, there are still many girls standing next to the senior, but they could only look at the conditions above and were discouraged3望而卻步 (wàng ér què bù): to shirk at the sight of danger; to flinch; flinch/shrink back at the sight of (sth dangerous or difficult); stand in awe., so what if there was a handsome senior, they didn’t have the requirements, they they must understand tactical command.
Lin Zimao asked the other party: “What is Man-Machine War?”
As soon as the senior heard it, he felt that this junior is promising: “It’s like this, this is a reserved event for our competition, first, the top three participants will be selected from the Command Competition, as long as they make it to the top three, they can compete with the new command AI mainly developed by Liang Yuan, the most famous genius senior in our department.”
Before Lin Zimao could ask, a voice interjected: “Zimao? You’re interested in this?”
It was Ji Chen.
Lin Zimao remembers that he seems to be in the Command Department: “Senior, you’re in the Student Council?”
“I’m not, I’m just here to join in the fun and spice up this competition in our department, do you want to sign up for fun?” Ji Chen had a flash of inspiration, “If you don’t understand, I can explain it to you.” Explaining is equal to developing feelings, staying together day in and day out, where water flows, a canal is formed4水到渠成 (shuǐ dào qú chéng): lit. where water flows, a canal is formed (idiom); fig. when conditions are right, success will follow naturally; to achieve something without effort; effortless; something which comes naturally; the channel is readily formed just as the water comes―success is assured when conditions are ripe., isn’t this a good way to get together?
Lin Zimao pointed to the ‘Man-Machine War’ and said: “I’m more curious about this.”
Ji Chen: “As long as you make it to the top three, you can fight against the all-round command AI designed by Liang Yuan. As long as you can get the top three, you can fight against the all-round command AI designed by Liang Yuan.”
Lin Zimao: “It’s Liang Yuan, the second-year graduate student?”
Ji Chen: “Yes, that’s him, you know him?”
Lin Zimao said: “I’ve met him before, I’m a little interested in the AI he designed, do you think I can beat it?”
Ji Chen didn’t pay attention that Lin Zimao said ‘I’, so he said: “I heard it’s a bit difficult, so I’ll try to see if I can get the first place and play with it.”
Lin Zimao said with a smile: “Then I’ll sign up and try to see how good the command department is.”
Ji Chen didn’t mind Lin Zimao’s exaggerated tone at all, he only took it as a joke, and even took the initiative to promote himself to Lin Zimao: “Do you need me to help tutor you with command and combat knowledge? My grades are pretty good.”
Jiang Xuan walked to Ji Chen’s side at some point: “Tutoring what?”
Lin Zimao said coolly: “Enthusiastic senior individually tutoring junior with new knowledge.”
Jiang Xuan: “…” He didn’t tutor Cheng Chen alone that day.
LZM nursing a grievance, JX jelly, Jiaoyan meowing alone at home…
