Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Zhao Liwen's Pestering (2/2)
"You were looking for me?"
Looking at Zhao Liwen's delicate scholarly appearance, Qin Siyang felt that they were not the same kind of people at all. He hadn't provoked him, so why was he bothering him?
Zhao Liwen said seriously,"Qin Siyang, right now is an important time for preparing for the college entrance exams. I hope you can focus on your studies."
This sentence left Qin Siyang completely confused,"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Literally. I hope you can study hard so you won't regret it in the future."
Qin Siyang burst out laughing,"You're really funny. Whether I study or not, what does that have to do with you?"
Then he turned his head away, no longer looking at Zhao Liwen, but gazing out the window at the starry sky and divine wonders.
Seeing that Qin Siyang was ignoring Zhao Liwen, a few girls started speaking up indignantly.
"Qin Siyang, even if you're better at studying than me, Zhao is still looking out for you. How can you have this attitude."
"Exactly! You're hopeless! Zhao, I'm willing to study hard, but no one is helping me. Can you study with me?"
"I also want to study."
Qin Siyang turned his head back to look at those few people,"You guys are working so hard to please him, but since he walked in, has he even looked at you once? If you ask me, Zhao Liwen doesn't care about any of you. Save yourselves the trouble."
"You!"
"What did you say?"
"All of you hoping to latch onto Zhao so you can rise up when he gets into college—just give it a rest. Zhao has high standards. He wouldn't be interested in you ordinary, cheap women, unlike some male classmates who aren't picky about what they eat."
After saying this, Qin Siyang gave Li Jingwen a meaningful look.
Li Jingwen knew that Qin Siyang was calling Zhou Yang "indiscriminate in his tastes" while also implying that she was a low-class girl. She was so furious that she gritted her teeth, let out a cold snort, and turned away.
Zhao Liwen also seemed to find the commotion irritating. As if he didn't want to stay any longer, he got straight to the point.
"Qin Siyang, if you don't want to study, please don't disturb others who are preparing for the college entrance exams. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you ruin it for others, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."
Qin Siyang narrowed his eyes,"Hey Zhao Liwen, are you sick or something?"
"Hmm?"
"I sit in this corner of the classroom every day. If I'm not sleeping in class, I'm spacing out. Who exactly am I disturbing? What, just thinking about me spacing out makes you so distracted that you can't eat or sleep, and you can't even do your exercises?"
"I don't even know you!"
Zhao Liwen gritted his teeth and then said,"I'm not saying you're disturbing my studies."
"Not you?",Qin Siyang raised an eyebrow,"If not you, then why are you here talking to me?"
"I'm speaking on behalf of Wen Shu."
"Wen Shu?" Qin Siyang was even more surprised.
"Yes. You've been bothering her in the library lately. I hope you can stay away from her."
Hearing Wen Shu's name, the girls who had been trying to impress Zhao Liwen instantly fell silent. In their hearts, they cursed Wen Shu—this girl who was not only smart, but also beautiful and kind.
Maybe because Wen Shu was too perfect, they couldn't find anything to criticize her for. So all they could say was that she was scheming and that everything she did was an act.
But in reality, if they could become Wen Shu, or even be half as outstanding as her, they would agree without hesitation.
Qin Siyang looked Zhao Liwen up and down again,"What's your relationship with Wen Shu? Are you her boyfriend? She never told me that."
Zhao Liwen was taken aback for a moment,"I'm not her boyfriend. We're not in a relationship. But after the college entrance exams, we'll be going to the same college. At that time, we'll be together."
"The same college?",Qin Siyang scratched his head,"Dude, it's not that I don't believe you, but you always score dozens of points lower than Wen Shu on exams. How are you going to the same college as her?"
"I know my grades aren't as good as hers, but if I apply to one of the lower-ranked colleges, I can get in for sure. Coincidentally, the two colleges Wen Shu is considering—Tian College and Renxing College—are the lowest-ranked among the top eight."
Qin Siyang hesitated for a moment.
Wen Shu had mentioned before that the college providing independent dorms wasn't the best one, but actually the worst?
Then with her outstanding grades, wouldn't she be at a disadvantage?
As Wen Shu's only friend at Ju'an School, Qin Siyang immediately felt a wave of regret on her behalf.
He also understood that Wen Shu was compromising because of money. Without money, even if she was brilliant, she wouldn't be able to get by in the safe zone—especially while taking care of her senile grandmother.
"So, I hope you won't disturb Wen Shu's studies. Qin Siyang, some things are simply out of your reach. I hope you can recognize that reality."
Qin Siyang looked at Zhao Liwen as if he were an idiot,"How about this—let's go ask Wen Shu if she wants to be with you after graduation?"
Zhao Liwen seemed surprised by this suggestion. After hesitating for a moment, he said,"Even if she doesn't want to now, I will win her over in the future. She'll definitely accept me."
"Win her over? Accept you?",Qin Siyang pointed at Li Jingwen, who was sitting in front,"Ask that girl what I was like to her before. Did I win her over?"
Zhao Liwen didn't turn his head,"That's your problem. I have confidence in myself."
"You did say one thing right."
"What?"
"Some things are simply out of your reach. I hope you can recognize that reality."
"You! You're absolutely unreasonable. Hmph!"
Zhao Liwen realized he couldn't do anything about the shameless Qin Siyang, so he left the classroom in frustration.
Qin Siyang glanced at Zhao Liwen's departing figure with disdain, then turned back to the window, lost in thought.
Although Qin Siyang wasn't sure what kind of guy Wen Shu would like, from their conversations, it was clear that her intelligence and maturity were top-tier.
Besides, they had literally killed and buried someone together. Wen Shu's composure had far exceeded Qin Siyang's expectations.
As for this clueless young master Zhao—how could he possibly win Wen Shu's approval?
Even without thinking, Qin Siyang knew that Zhao Liwen would end up just like he did when he chased after Li Jingwen.
Though Wen Shu wasn't as toxic as Li Jingwen, so Zhao Liwen's ending would probably be better.
After all, they had killed someone together—friends for life. Qin Siyang put himself in Wen Shu's shoes. Being pestered by Zhao, this clingy fool, must be incredibly annoying.
Come to think of it, Zhao Liwen, this clueless nuisance, might actually be affecting her focus.
Zhao was right—Wen Shu couldn't afford any distractions during this critical exam prep period.
'Anyway, I need to take the post-exam sequence ability test. I should start preparing to reveal my awakened sequence ability. Might as well do Wen Shu a favor while I'm at it.'
'Once I announce my sequence ability, there won't be any flies buzzing around anymore.'
'Sigh, I was planning to take it easy during these five school days and do my research on sequences over the weekend.'
'Forget it, I'll sleep less today. After school, I'll go find Wang Defa and check the forums.'
Qin Siyang sighed.
"I really am such a kind person."
