Chapter 114: Chapter Ninety-One: Isolated_2
He had intended to find a corner seat.
However, Li Qiang felt like he had encountered his own father when he saw Zhou Yuwen and directly approached him in a brash manner, saying, "Hey! Brother Zhou, why didn't you come back to the dorm last night?"
By this time, many classmates had already arrived in the classroom and couldn't help but turn their heads for another look at Zhou Yuwen upon hearing Li Qiang's remarks.
"Brother Hao, where are you going? Let's sit with Brother Zhou. It's not like you're breaking off with Zheng Yanyan just because of him, right?" Chang Hao was about to sit down when Li Qiang abruptly pulled him back.
At that moment, Chang Hao deeply regretted.
He regretted being assigned to the same dorm as Li Qiang.
He even regretted coming to Jinling to study!
What sins did I commit in my last life!
To run into such a bastard!
Chang Hao was upset in his heart, but Li Qiang had thick skin. "Alright, alright, didn't you tell me before, wherever you go there's pleasant grass. Besides, you and Zheng Yanyan weren't anything serious, and now that Brother Zhou is with Zheng Yanyan, we should be blessing them."
Li Qiang had a loud voice, and although his words were disjointed, they still caught the attention of other students somewhat.
Chang Hao ended up sitting behind Zhou Yuwen, dragged there by Li Qiang.

Li Qiang still greeted Zhou Yuwen cheerily, saying, "Hey, Brother Zhou, did you really stay out with Zheng Yanyan last night?"
Zhou Yuwen said, "Firstly, I am indeed in a relationship with Zheng Yanyan.
"Secondly, last night I first dropped Zheng Yanyan off at her dormitory and then had to stay out because my own dormitory was locked. If you keep spouting nonsense here,
Zhou Yuwen made a slapping gesture.
Even though Zhou Yuwen hadn't touched Li Qiang, Li Qiang was already playfully slapping his own face, saying, "Hehe, my bad, I'll slap myself, I'll slap myself."
Then symbolically slapping himself twice and laughing, "Can't help it though, you being out all night had us wondering! You're the first one in our dorm to get rid of the single status. When are you treating us to a meal, huh, Brother Hao?"
Saying this, Li Qiang hooked his arm around Chang Hao's shoulder.
"Don't touch me!" Chang Hao was incredibly repulsed by Li Qiang.
Zhou Yuwen couldn't be bothered with Li Qiang either, but what Li Qiang had just said indeed disappointed some of the girls, especially Liu Yue.
The expression on Liu Yue's face always betrayed her emotions, and she asked, "You have a girlfriend now?"
"Yeah." Zhou Yuwen did not deny it.
"Is it the girl who kissed you on stage last night?"
Liu Yue's two roommates, who had been quiet until this moment, finally started to gossip, having wanted to ask much earlier, but Liu Yue had been chatting away, and they hadn't had much of a chance.
Zhou Yuwen nodded affirmative.
The two girls immediately got excited, claiming they had guessed as much.
"Which class is your girlfriend from? She seems really pretty."
"Yeah! She has such long legs; we are so envious!"
Liu Yue's two roommates, Ma Tian and Li Jing, weren't particularly pretty nor ugly—if one really wanted to discuss looks, they might be a bit more attractive than Liu Yue. However, they were well aware of their limits, never imagining getting close to Zhou Yuwen, just typical young girls who loved gossiping and following drama.
Yesterday, when Zheng Yanyan and Lu Lin were dancing, the two were eagerly taking photos on stage and screaming; Li Jing was even shouting, "Sister, look at me!"
Then when Zheng Yanyan went up to kiss later on, the two were thrillingly holding each other's hands, discussing it all night, even mentioning, "The one who sang before, Shen Yu, must definitely like our class president."
"Yeah, I feel so too, the expression of that singing girl was definitely off."
"Ah, well, can't do much about it, our class president is outstanding after all!"
Now facing the person directly and still enjoying the gossip, Ma Tian and Li Jing were incessantly asking questions.
Like how did you two meet?
Who chased whom?
"How long have you two been together?"
The two girls were like question machines, Zhou Yuwen couldn't even keep up, and from the back row, Li Qiang couldn't help saying, "Asking how they met? We should thank Brother Hao for that, Brother Zhou, Brother Hao really played matchmaker for you two, didn't they?"
"Matchmaker?" Ma Tian and Li Jing continued to relish the drama.
Chang Hao suddenly slammed his hand on the desk.
Everyone turned their heads to look this way.
"Will you shut up if no one treats you as mute?"
Chang Hao was truly fed up, and after uttering those words, he moved to a remote corner and sat down.
Liu Yue glanced at Chang Hao, who was leaning over in the corner.
He seemed...
Perhaps a bit upset?
Twenty minutes quickly passed, and the exam supervisors, two middle-aged women with glasses, looking rather strict, told everyone to remove any items unrelated to the exam.
"Turn off or silence your phones, place them in the middle of the table."
The tiered classroom was large enough to accommodate an entire class, with a few spaces between each person.
Then they began distributing the exam papers.
Zhou Yuwen's school was a second-tier college, and although second-tier colleges also varied in quality, Zhou Yuwen's major had lower requirements, mostly at the bottom tier.
Su Qing's major required higher scores for the college entrance exams and though it was also a second-tier program, the teaching quality was decent. You should know, her major had collaborative projects with certain international universities, allowing some students to have the opportunity to become exchange students during their second or third year.
In his previous college days, Zhou Yuwen's English was not very good, merely at the bottom rung, but Su Qing indeed wanted to study abroad, so he had practiced speaking English with her for a while and had also accompanied Su Qing to enroll in an external English class.
