As it entered December, some classes had ended and the after-school time became longer and longer.

Ye Zhou really did as he said and began to earnestly prepare for the exam. In addition to reading the textbooks, he often hung around the library to read financial-related books. When he returned at night, he paid attention to the current news, completely occupying the extra time after school.

And Shang Jin officially began the life of a 405 “left-behind child”. Every time the semester was quickly approaching its end, it’d be like this. Only, this year felt particularly awkward.

Every time he took off his headphones and no longer heard the sound of Ye Zhou flipping through his books, or when he stood up, he couldn’t hear the other person ask a question, he always felt that something was missing.

When the cold air struck, the surrounding people discussed everyday whether it was going to snow. However, the snow didn’t come as expected, but they found that it was replaced by the heavy rain.

In this bad weather, the “Shang Ye Number” suddenly became a hot commodity.

Since there weren’t many courses, Ye Zhou and Shang Jin wouldn’t use the little pedicab for anything except for classes. The library was only 15 minutes away from the male dormitory, so Ye Zhou directly walked there each time, while Shang Jin directly stayed in the dormitory.

The small three-wheeler was also left there when not in use. So when someone asked Ye Zhou to borrow it, Ye Zhou would notify Shang Jin before lending the car out.

Originally thinking that today would be an exception, but he didn’t expect that, at 5:30PM, Liu Yutian would mincing walk back and forth next to Shang Jin, but not say what was the matter.

Staring at the computer, Shang Jin saw him walking around in his peripheral vision and waited for him to open his mouth.

Liu Yutian stood behind Shang Jin’s back and gestured to Wen Renxu with his eyes. Wen Renxu frowned and didn’t respond. Liu Yutian looked at Shang Jin’s cold expression and mustered up his courage. “Shang Jin.”

Shang Jin took off his headphones and waited for the next words.

“Can you lend us your pedicab? It’s raining now, and we want to go to X Supermarketー”

Not waiting for Liu Yutian to finish, Shang Jin handed him the key on the table.

“Thank you! I’ll bring you some strawberry candy.” Since the last time Ye Zhou had Wen Renxu brought them, the people in the 405 dorm basically knew that Shang Jin liked to eat strawberry candy. Liu Yutian took the key and quickly left the dorm with Wen Renxu.

Following the dorm door closing, Shang Jin was somewhat bewildered. Why was everyone so bold and self-confident when they looked for Ye Zhou to borrow the car, but when it came to him, they were so extremely feeble? Did he look like such a stingy person?

“ding-dong” came the beep from the phone. Shang Jin picked it up from the table. It was a message from some website. He switched this off and at the same time, as if demons and gods were at work, his fingers tapped open WeChat and refreshed his circle of friends.

With this refresh, he could see the latest messages sent from his circle of friends.

Ye Zhou: 【Crazy】【Crazy】Such a big rain, I rush back! Or rush back? Or I rush back…【Photo】

The photo was taken from the table by the window on the fifth floor of the library.

“Serves you right,” Shang Jin whispered. Obviously knowing that dark clouds were flying about during the day, but didn’t bring an umbrella when going to library.

Shang Jin put down his mobile phone and continued to wear his headphones. But this time, he couldn’t immerse himself in the game no matter what. From time to time, his attention was drawn to the phone and couldn’t help manually swiping through his circle of friends to see if there was any new development.

Half past five…it’s just when this guy would usually return. On such a cold day, with Ye Zhou’s stupid brain, it’s really possible that he’d run back in the rain.

Shang Jin’s hand movements paused and his eyes swept the time on the mobile phone. In this interruption, he was chopped down by the villain in the game, and the whole team broke into chaos.

【Team】Lasting love song sung for a century: Fuck, I don’t believe my eyes!! Xia Shang Zhou actually made a mistake??

【Team】Bowl of chow mien coming dear: Goddess, what happened to you???

【Team】Secluded Swordsman: What goddess, actually committing such a ** mistake, name doesn’t reflect reality *******, can’t play then ** don’t play

【Team】Lasting love song sung for a century: You’re the **!! Why don’t you look at how many mistakes you’ve made since the beginning to now. Should move forward but shrink behind. Shouldn’t go up but you cut through in confusion. If it wasn’t Shang Zhou saving you, you would have wiped out already! Chow Mien, kick him out!

【Team】Bowl of chow mien coming dear: Kicked, dare to curse my goddess, afterwards, see once, cut one. Goddess, don’t be mad~We won’t lower ourselves to argue with losers~~

【Team】Lasting love song sung for a century: Shang Zhou??

At this time, Shang Jin had already stood up and found two umbrellas in the dorm and gone out. When going out, he hesitated slightly, and put the other umbrella back in its original place.

Ye Zhou, lying on the table by the window on the fifth floor of the library, had read for an afternoon and his head was all stuffy. Just about to stand up, he saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier outside.

The surrounding students, one by one, made calls or sent messages to their dormmates to send umbrellas. On the contrary, Ye Zhou didn’t have this intention.

Regardless of whether the other side was willing or not, it wasn’t good to ask his classmate to be in this kind of weather. Not mentioning the road being hard to walk, even holding an umbrella may also get wet.

Ye Zhou intended to wait until six o’clock. If the rain hasn’t weakened at six o’clock, then he’d directly rush back.

Bored, he sent out a message to the circle of friends and received likes from a group of fellow sufferers.

He waited until he couldn’t wait anymore. The rain was still falling, and Ye Zhou put his notebook in his pocket. He pulled up his zipper and was about to go out when he suddenly received a WeChat message.

Shang Jin: Where?

Ye Zhou: Library fifth floor.

Shang Jin: Come down, I have an umbrella.

Ye Zhou: Coming right away!

Sure enough, waiting for this half hour was right!

Ye Zhou excitedly rushed downstairs. A group of students taking shelter from the rain stood in the library doorway. Ye Zhou squeezed through the crowd to the doorway and saw Shang Jin standing outside the crowd holding an ordinary, dark blue umbrella like a savior.

Ye Zhou trotted over under the umbrella. The umbrella was relatively large and could cover two people.

Ye Zhou, with two hands stuck in his pockets, stuck to Shang Jin’s shoulder and said, “You’re not in the dorm today??”

“Well, today I was reading on the library third floor. When I was about to return, I saw the message you sent on the circle of friends.”

Ye Zhou excitedly said, “Fortunately I had the foresight to send it to the circle of friends.”

Even if the umbrella was just right, the two people returning to the dorm would still get their clothes wet. When the two returned, they took off their coats and hung them to one side.

While Shang Jin was in the bathroom, Ye Zhou took a dry towel and wiped his clothes. After wiping, he conveniently helped Shang Jin to wipe off the water drops sliding on the sleeves. When he returned to his seat, he stumbled on Shang Jin’s chair and his arms propped on his desk to maintain his balance, accidentally bumping the mouse.

The black screen lit up.

On the screen was still the game screen before leaving.

【Team】Lasting love song sung for a century: It’s almost half an hour. Where on earth did Shang Zhou go? The instance was going well, suddenly disappeared.

【Team】Bowl of chow mien coming dear: qaq keep waiting!

Ye Zhou pursed his lips, looking at the computer screen with an unclear meaning.

A movement suddenly came from the bathroom, and Ye Zhou slammed the notebook cover down.

Shang Jin: “???”

Ye Zhou coughed and calmly said, “Just tripped on the chair and accidentally closed your notebook.”

When Shang Jin heard this, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten to turn off his computer…fortunately, it’s okay.
